NICOLE

  I watched Sofia babble on and on about herself and how nice Raphael was. I was so astonished on how she held him in high regards.

  The way she spoke off him, one would actually mistake him for a philanthropist. Didn't she know what he was into?

  It was impossible to leave in the same house with him and not know the shady things he was into. But she spoke of him so elegantly, so heroically.

  Wow.

I was the most suprised person on earth at the moment.

So far so good, I actually loved their house. Sofia literally took me on a tour round the house. It was as huge as it looked. We explored down stairs before facing upstairs..

   There were many hallways upstairs. Some were dimmed making it looked so gothic and scary whilst some were so bright with radiant lights illuminating the pathway.

  We explored the brightly radiant hallways first. The rooms and corners were so much, I truly couldn't keep count of all the numerous doors Sofia showed me.

  I was truly in awe by the library Sofia led me into. It was so spacious with huge long windows allowing both air and light in. Plant pots stood at various corners making it look more unique and magnificent.

  The beautifully designed shelves looked like they were carved from the finest of woods. They were arranged alphabetically in rows and different books were stacked in them. The library had this aura of ideas, imagination and knowledge oozing all over as a result of the different antique of books stacked in the shelves.

  There was also different wooden furnitures like chairs and tables arranged in the library. A section of the magnificent library had computers, keyboards and CPUs properly placed and arranged in rows of joined together wooden tables so each row had a good view of the other corners of the library.

  I was a book warm and I just couldn't wait to explore the variety of books in the library.

"Nicole I truly know you will enjoy your stay here"Sofia said cutting through my thoughts.

  She worked so swiftly ahead of me, turning towards a corner. I was truly finding a hard time catching up with her. The doors in this section of the hallway were thankfully not much.

  Sofia then stopped in front of a black door that had an intricate cobra shaped door knob.

I cringed on seeing it.

"This is yours and Raphael's room"she announced proudly as she opened her arms.

She turned to face me, who stood at her back and jutted with her chin for me to check it out.

I placed my hands on the door knob, gently opening it and was met with a breathtaking, enormous bedroom.

  I stood fixed on the spot with my eyes roving around the bizzare royal bedroom.

  First thing I spotted was an oestentatious king sized four poster bed doused in gold and silver patterned sheets and a velvet coloured duvet. The bed had vertical columns or four long posts placed at each corner by it side supporting a rectangular canopy or panel over the bed providing it with a roof like image with rails allowing curtains to be drawn out of it.

  I smiled at the magnificent design at the same time I was speechless. This design of bed dates back to the medieval ages and I truly loved how the bed was refashioned and designed making it look so attractive.

Very close to the bed stood a little cozy drawer with a bedlamp placed on top of it. There were also two long windows with scarlet curtains draping each of them.

  My eyes browsed the patterned frosty silver but yet indent black walls. 

I did admire the walls but why was black included in the painting?

I grumbled within me wondering why Raphael liked black so much.

  All in all, it was still ravishing.

A vanity table stood at the centre of the room with a huge screen television resting on the wall.

It was chilly. I faced up noticing three air conditioners placed at various corners of the ceiling with a chandelier placed at the centre.

My gaze narrowed to the right hand side of the room where a huge white door stood.

I walked hastily towards it, twisting the door knob and roughly pushing it open.

  I entered a beautiful ornate dressing room.

An enormous black coloured sliding door cupboard coupled with various shelves for foot wears were elegantly built and furnished by the most skilled hands. The doors of the cupboard were built from floor to ceiling.

   Opposite the aligned shelves stood a horizontal mirror, placed by the wall. Underneath it laid a beautiful table like petite customized cupboard.

I walked towards the mirror and admired my reflection before crouching down to open one of the various little doors of the cupboard.

Nothing much was there just some hair accessories.

For a roughed man, Raphael sure knew how to take care of himself properly.

  I stood up with a sigh. I scanned the walls, they were just the same colour, no change. My eyes whapped to another less huge door inside the spacious closet.

Wow. I never truly noticed it. Probably because of its silver colour, camouflaging it like the rest of the walls.

  I walked towards it, opening the door and I truly couldn't believe my eyes.

Inside it was a huge en suite bathroom. It had a shower and probably what seemed like a jacuzzi sized bathtub built by the corner of the wall.

   Opposite the bathtub was a silver framed mirror on the wall above a wide looking sink. A petite little cupboard was attached to the wall next to the mirror.

  The toilet section was also good looking and the sweet scent of vanilla mixed with lavender graced the air.

  I walked out of the bathroom and also out of the closet, shutting the door behind me.

"You are going to have lots of memories in here"Sofia cheekily grinned.

  I laughed at her sly comment and nodded my head.

Taking me by the arm, she led me outside the room.

We were about heading out when I dragged her back.

"Won't we explore the other dark hallways? We didn't really get the chance to explore it much before we diverted"I said.

Sofia had this tensed look on her face.

"I don't like that part of the house for real. It's scary. I hardly go there. It's just Raphael and you know his colleagues that head there"

I felt a lump grow in my throat but I shook of the fear and nudged at her shoulder.

"Please. Pretty please. We won't explore much and I'll be right by your side incase a scary beast pops out"I teased.

  She giggled and nodded her head, giving into my request.

We headed towards the poorly lit hallways, Sofia and I chattering as we flexed our legs when we passed a wooden door secured by two of Raphael's guards.

  I stopped in my tracks and turned to face the door. The guards stood still, unmoved and rigid.

"What's there and why are guards guarding that room?"I whispered into Sofia's ear.

"That's the red room. That's what Raphael calls it. It scares the fuck out of me. I truly don't know what goes inside there"she replied back in a low tone as she dragged me out of that spot.

We retraced our steps and left that hallway heading back down the stairs.

I knew terrible things and painful murders were capable of taking place inside that room. Horror implanted itself in me and I suddenly felt nauseous. I scrambled to leave the area, even walking ahead of Sofia until I reached down stairs.

"Nicole you were too fast. Wow you should go far a marathon race. With your speed you will surely win"she said with a quirky smile.

"Sofia vieni ad aiutarmi- sofia come help me" the high pitched voice of Aurora rang from the kitchen.

"Mamma in arrivo- coming mummy" Sofia replied with a sigh.

"I'll be right back"she told me before heading towards the kitchen.

I was getting very interested in learning Italian. The language felt so tongue rolling and intriguing.

  My eyes surveyed the living room but I couldn't spot Raphael anywhere. Where is he?

  Just different workers scrambling about their various duties but no sign of Raphael. Suddenly I felt so lonely and awkward. I sat on one of the sofa's, feeling a bit out of place in this new foreign environment.

"Sister inlaw"a young red haired boy excitedly chirped whilst he made his way towards me. He sat by my side and had a broad smile drawn on his face.

"My name is Emilio. You won't recognise me. I came to Nigeria to visit Raphael once and I spotted you and him walking upstairs"he said.

"Oh"was what I managed to say. I trult couldn't recognise the redhaired. Raphael had so many men patrolling in his house, I was even scared for my own safety.

"I am Sofia's elder brother. I promise you will enjoy your stay in this house"

I nodded with a soft smile.

"Um where is Raphael?"I was tempted to ask.

"He went out with Leila. They didn't move far. Just around the vicinity talking"

I felt knots tie inside me and my stomach churned.

  Not like I hated Leila but the manner in which she spoke to my husband was so sultry and sensual to me. She felt so intimidating.

What were they discussing?

"Dontworry sister in law. Leila is pretty yes but she won't steal your husband from you"Emilio spoke as if he read my thoughts.

He must have probably sensed my tensed expression.

Aurora's shrill voice called him from the kitchen.

With a sigh he waved at me before standing up and heading to the kitchen.

Once again I was left alone.

Where the fuck was Raphael? We just arrived in italy, he was the one supposed to show me round the house and keep me company not leaving me by myself in the midst of workers and guards.

  I huffed and flopped my head on the sofa, closing my eyes softly.

  I was sure I hadn't closed my eyes for up to twenty minutes when I felt a light tap on my shoulder.

My eyes fluttered open to meet the ocean blue eyes of Raphael.

I bolted up from the sofa immedately, excitement and annoyance souring within me.

I felt like punching him in the groins and hugging him too.

"Lunch is ready bella" Raphael said with his hands stretching towards the dinning section that was already stacked with mouth watering cuisines. I noticed Lorenzo, Marco, Luca and Thomas were also seated there accompanied by Sofia and Emilio.

How can he come back from nowhere and just inform me of lunch?

"Where have you been?"I said through gritted teeth, stumping my foot.

"I was with my concubine"he leaned in, whispering into my ear.

I pulled back with a gasp and longing eyes.

Raphael erupted into laughter and shook his head, patting my dark hair like I was a child.

"Relax my love. I just went to discuss business issues with Leila"

I huffed at him and controlled my urge to kick him in the place where the sun never shines.

  I heard those familar soft clicking of heels against the tiles and shifted my gaze to see Leila coming behind him.

"I'll be taking my leave now. See you boss and congratulations on your marriage"She said in a formal tone before flashing me a smile and swinging her hips away.

  She was truly very beautiful.

"Won't you children come and eat?"Aurora called out from the large dinning section of the living room.

Raphael interlocked his hands with mine as I glared at him with a frosty anger.

"Let's go have lunch"He said as he pecked me on my cheeks.

My face turned crimson red by his display of affection infront of his family.

  Sofia gave me a mischievous smile, watching I and Raphael together.

I couldn't help the blush on my cheeks as we sat down in the dinning area.

* * * * * * *

  Nicole sat on the bed, worried lines drew on her forehead as she anxiously waited for Raphael.

Time and time again she would glance at the digital rectangular clock placed on the wall, her anxiety eating her up in anticipation of Raphael.

  This was past midnight and she felt so anxious. Her heart rate increased and her head was spinning out of fear.

Where was Raphael?

Trepidation seized her as she thought of the multiple horrid things that lurked by this time of the night outside.

  He told her he would be working late but she didn't expect it to be this sort of lateness.

After lunch, Raphael and her had a beautiful stroll around the garden and his mansion whilst his workers arranged her things in his room.

Holding hands, talking and watching the sun set, it was very romantic.

  She thought after dinner they would spend more romantic time in the bedroom but he didn't even stay for dinner.

She bit her bottom lip in frustration, her feelings doused in panic.

Her eyes felt so heavy as she struggled to keep herself awake.

She promised herself she would wait for Raphael to come back and she would.

RUSSIA

  The silence was defeaning and thick as it soured through the air.

The gloomy domed room was dark apart from a faintly lit bulb swinging from the centre of the room doing absolutely no justice in shedding light to the room.

  A figure of a man sat on a chair that was infront of a wooden desk, puffing up smokes from his cigarettes into the air.

His eyes were wide opened and they seemed so distant. His thoughts ran wild as he stared at the picture frame on the wall in front of him.

The only sound that could be heard was the sound of his chair rocking back and forth.

Suddenly a dry laughter rumbled from his lungs. He kept on laughing so hard like he was being tickled.

He then stopped and wiped off drops of tears forming in his eyes.

  "So he is back"he said

"The almighty don is back from his get away trip"he added as he began laughing hysterically.

His fist suddenly clenched as he stopped laughing. His nostrils flared and his face became contorted with rage.

"Bloody fool!"he yelled bringing out a gun from his drawer.

He aimed his gun at the picture frame and his lips curled. "Raphael you came back with a woman. Bloody bastard. Cunt"

His chest heaved with anger and his eyelid became squinted. "No problem. You came with a woman that's fine by me"he said as he drew his lips tightly into a cunning smile.

"She will pay for your sin with her blood. After all, an eye for an eye and a life for a life" he growled before pulling the trigger on Raphael's picture.

    NICOLE I felt empty and light. My eyes squeezed tightly as I stretched my hands to feel the warmth of the body I had cuddled up with last night. I felt nothing just a ruffled duvet. I tapped on it about three times, stretching my hands to touch Raphael but I couldn't feel his body. I immedately flew my eyes open and sat up straight, eyes roving around the room as if Raphael would immedately appear out of thin air. I stared at the sheets in blank amazement then my eyes narrowed to the windows, the awe inspiring sun rays dancing in through the curtains."Fuck where is Raphael?" I inaudibly grumbled. I came out of the bed and went towards the curtains.Separating them, I poked my head outside the window observing the beautiful garden behind. "Hello italy"I murmured with a smile

    NICOLE I and Raphael walked down the cobble streets of Rome. Everything felt so amazing and surreal; the brilliant sun shining down happily, the cars bustling and people flowing like a tide.This was how I wanted it to be, we were spending time together like a normal couple. Raphael had asked if we should take a car but hell no. I insisted we walked. How would I enjoy my tour if we don't walk hand in hand and relish the moment? He brought along two disposable cameras that each had space for about sixty photographs. That way we could capture the moments of our beautiful tour. The street we were in had a lot of old Italian apartments, balconies that had people's clothes and rugs hanging out of it. The road was cobbled and it added to the beauty. Loud chirpings from men and women both young and old filled the air. I looked around with a beam on my fa

Our tour, the bonding, tasting of different dish; it was so exquisite and beautiful.I wished our day wouldn't end.I saw an entirely different side of Raphael on the water taxi. He wanted to know all the Disney fairytales he had missed growing up. It was like I was telling a child a story. His eyes always seem to glint up and sparkle with life with each story I told him.I truly loved that.I was so tired when we arrive back home. The moment my body touched the soft sheets of our bed, I totally slept off. I'm sure Raphael must have cuddled me because I woke up in his arms. He slept so soundly.He looked extremely beautiful.

My eyes flew open and I saw Raphael slowly bringing out a gun from his pocket.This was getting scary.Raphael immedately cocked it and twirled it around his slender fingers."Raphael.."I whispered in fear.He looked down at my frightened self and kissed my forehead. "Shhh Bella. I'm here ok"I heard his grandfather falsely chuckle. We both then trailed our gaze to him as he stared angrily at us. I don't get it. Why doesn't he like me?

    Nicole broke down into tears, slumping on the floor with her body shaking vigorously. She never believed events would turn out this way. It was just a simple dinner. Everybody was meant to eat, relax and get to know each other more. She hoped Armani would like her the way Aurora did but now everything was ruined. Armani hates her for no reason. And now Raphael was being led away for his punishment as a result of the brawl he got into with Dante. Dante was such a pain in the ass. How could he say those things to his own brother? His own blood. How could he wish his own brother dead? The more Nicole thought of it, the more tears streamed down her cheeks and flooded her vision. Aurora and Sofia quickly went over to Nicole, trying to get her to stand up."Child please do you want to cry yourself to death?"Aurora softly asked as she held Nicole's hand."W-what will he-h

    Nicole felt a million knots get tied up inside her the moment Raphael uttered that statement. She felt so excited and yet so scared. Her heart sunk to her stomach and she suddenly felt her palms becoming sweaty even though the room was chilly. Raphael noticed she suddenly looked frightened and he arched a brow at her. "What's wrong? Don't you want it?"He spoke so gravelly, it made Nicole shiver. Nicole immedately responded. "I do Raphael. I'm just...well...I am"Nicole struggled with words as she kept on speaking hesitantly and cutting herself short.Raphael stopped hovering over her and laid by her side, straddling her to himself."I have never done it before and I don't want to disappoint you"Nicole confessed under her breath. Raphael let out a laugh, amused by what his wife said. "Is that why you look so tensed my love?"

    NICOLE I came down from my car, heading into a dainty pastry shop. I was on my way to work and I wanted to grab some snacks. Pushing open the glass doors, I trod towards the counter.The decor was comfortable. It wasn't too posh to feel out of place and also wasn't too plain either. Rounded wooden tables and soft chairs formed a pattern in the shop,the mild tone of classical music soaring in the air.The environment wasn't animated. It was peaceful and serene.Placing an order to go of two pancakes and some spring rolls by the counter, I ambled towards one of the chairs and waited for my order. My mind drifted towards Raphael. I missed my husband so much. It was already close to a month and he still wasn't back.Was it that serious back in Mexico?The only thing that comforted me was my assurance that he would come back and also our late night calls. A waiter brought my order to me wrapped up."Here you go Ma'am" a soft feminine voice called out to me.With a smile, I col

    "I swear I'll shoot all of you right now and send gunmen to each one of your fucking families and have them pass through hell!" Raphael thundered fire and brimstones to his underbossess that formed a straight line opposite him. His nostrils flared and his eyes were so bloodshot, enough to scare the wits out of someone. Anger was an understatement of what he was going through. A bomb had been planted in one of his warehouses and they were very fortunate to had escape with their lives but in the process they had lost more than a million. His restless feet walked around the hall, his anger rising with each breath. A grenade was exploding in his head and he just wanted to kill somebody right now. The horror stricken underbossess stood frigid and also rigid. Nobody dared uttered a word in their defence. The incidence had left everyone stuperfied and lost for words. How was a bomb planted in the warehouses? It was heavily guarded so who was able to outsmart the armed guards and pla

I was tired of moving in circles, unending frustrating circles."Is that all?" I asked, my voice a little louder. My eyes accessed everything in the spacious room with a wily smile."We've gotten the best computer specialist and trackers to access the exact location of the ghost" Thomas informed me, his eyes on the various men who had the finger pads glued to the keyboard of the computers with the lights reflecting on their faces. I walked towards one and he acknowledged my presence which I returned back with a nod."Fill me in" I ordered him."We've got a problem" his brows became furrowed at the screen. Fuck.

What would he gain from my mother's death?" I threw multiple questions at Thomas. Thomas went silent, slowly averting his gaze from my face. He opened his mouth to speak but no words came out."Exactly. Nothing at all links to my dad" I concluded with a hiss.I don't know why my mum would make such an absurd claim.

    An agonising groan echoed around the steel walls of the cellar.Pain was evident in the voice that carried it; torturous and horrific pain. Strapped on to a chair was a bruised and disfigured Diego. He was held caged by a rope which seemed to squeeze his entire body into one piece. The pain from that alone was excruciating talk more of the cuts, wounds and broken bones he had gotten. The cellar was cold, extremely cold. Diego had his teeth chattering. A rat ran passed his legs causing him to curse in italian. Heavy thumping footsteps could be heard making its way towards his direction.Diego needed not to be told who it was. Cold and dangerous blue eyes carried his already swollen and weak green orbs in their formidable stare."Have you come back to finish what you started?" Diego asked slurry before spitting out loud.

I thought so much about it that I didn't realise when tears had started trickling down my cheeks. With a sniff of my nose, I wiped my tears with the back of my palms.

    RAPHAEL My brows deeply knitted themselves while my restive eyes were focused on my phone which rested in my tensed fingers. I recieved a video from Leila. She didn't even send a call or a voicenote of any sort. She just randomly sent this video.

    The room was gloomy doom, scanty with just a sofa as the only piece of furniture decorating the dark room.A faintly lit bulb swung carelessly in the middle, evoking squeaky noises with each swing which was the only sound that befell the room. Ruffled brown hairs with large carouse hands that were combing through it, dishevelling it the more flopped on the edge of the sofa. With searching brown eyes staring up at the ceiling, the man blew puffs of cigarette smoke into the air, dragging the cigar out of his lips. A slow knock on the door was heard. A smile curved by the side of his peach lips. Loud thumping footsteps were accompanied by the deep chuckling of a young man."I've been waiting for you" came the hoarse voice of the man. "It's not easy doing this but I'm glad I'm back on track" the young man told him as he stood behind the sofa. With a sharp bolt from the sofa, the older man turned to face his counterpart before engulfing him in a hug."Maxim. Ivan must be
