BETRAYED BY THE MAFIA LORD Chapter Ten
Sophia pov I sat on my bed in silence, my mind playing games on me. I still couldn’t seem to forget how Quinn killed that man and left him lifeless in a pool of his own blood. It made me absolutely sick to my stomach.The scene just kept on replaying in my head over and over as I took deep breaths and drank water. Two days had passed now, and I hadn’t even eaten anything. I heard a soft knock on my door before a maid waltzed in with a tray full of food. “Madam, here’s your breakfast.” She said, standing in front of me. “Uhm, you can go put it right over there.” I gestured to the table beside my bed, and she nodded immediately moving to place the food there. “ Master Quinn says you should eat.” She said, and with that, she scurried out of the room leaving me all alone in my silence. The funny thing is that I kneww I would not eat the food, it’d go the way it had been for the past 2 days. Quinn knew it, Hailey knew it, the maids knew it, even the chef knew it. I laid back down on m

Sophia pov I groaned, putting a hand up to my head as the birds outside chirped loudly. I didn’t feel like getting up but the noise made it unbearable for me to fall back to sleep easily.I carefully sat up, guiding myself with one arm on the bed while pushing my back to rest against the headboard. With every movement now, I could feel my stomach getting heavier and heavier with the baby.I heard a rustle beside me and turned to face the chair where I saw Quinn. His eyes were fixated on me and narrowed. I yelped, my heart racing and my eyes wide as I looked at Quinn, “What are you doing here?” I asked, barely hearing myself over the sudden rush of blood to my ears.“Were…were you watching me sleep?” I asked, feeling self-conscious all of a sudden. I was in just shorts and a tank top, and even though the blanket did a good job of concealing me, I still couldn’t help but feel odd.He ignored my questions, standing up from the chair with a soft creak. “You’re awake, good.” He crossed hi

Sophia pov Quinn looked at me with an expression that I couldn’t register as we sat in the car quietly as the driver drove to some other place. I was unsure of where we were going, but that didn’t matter to me now.The excitement of knowing that my baby was a boy overwhelmed me, now I could barely think straight.“Why are you smiling like a fool?” Quinn asked, snapping me out of my thoughts.“I-I’m sorry…I just…” I babbled, as I whipped my head so fast that I almost got whiplash. He chuckled, shaking his head.“Just save it. We’re heading to a meeting now.” He said, redirecting his focus back to the road.“I need you to know that these aren’t ordinary people. I’m there to strike a deal and you’re my wife now. You have every right to come with me.” He muttered.Hearing him call me his wife made me feel queasy a bit, but I shook off the feeling. “Okay. I understand.” I agreed. It wasn’t as if I had an option, and besides we were too far from home for me to suddenly demand that we turn

My heart raced as Quinn dragged me, holding onto my hand tightly. We ran across the lawn and for most of the time, the whole ordeal left me breathless. The wind whipped through my loose hair as I ran, hindering my line of vision a bit.My chest hurt, I felt like throwing up again and I had just witnessed not one but two people die right in front of me. Now, the security people are after us. If they caught us, what would happen? Surely, Quinn was much more powerful than these people, so maybe it wouldn’t be a problem. But considering the way he was sprinting to get to the car, I wouldn’t think that that was the case.I doubled over, placing my hands on my knees as I peeped behind me. “I-…I can’t run any longer,” I huffed, swiping hair away from my face. I was sweating so badly that stray hairs stuck to my wet face, which disgusted me.“Oh, come on!” Quinn grunted, pausing for a moment before turning back and extending his hand out for me. I took one last breath in before I took his ha

Sophia pov Waking up into another day seemed rather scary for me. Why?Well, because this is the day I am to execute my task that I had been given. For the past 3 days, I was busy kicking punching bags, running around fields and lifting weights. I could even feel my baby boy become more active in my tummy as I moved around and I was glad that he is hale and hearty.My pulse quickened and I couldn’t help but shake my leg as I waited for Quinn to pop out of his room. I debated stepping into the study to take a seat, but I wasn’t sure how he would react.He’d most likely be very angry especially since I’d realized that he didn’t take a liking to people touching his things. Quinn absolutely hated when things are out of place around him.I paced around in the corridor, thinking about what the task would eventually be. My fear of Quinn instantly led me to the assumption that it was definitely going to have something to do with drugs, because if it was, I’d most likely decline. It will

Sophia pov Fear gripped me as I watched what was about to happen. If any of them, even as much as fired one shot, my body would definitely take a hit. The urge to flee, dragged on my legs but the man pointing his gun at me, made it impossible to muster the courage.“It doesn't have to end like this, Gustav.” Will mouthed the man’s name.Gustav chuckled. “Yah, sure. Seems pretty impossible to me. I mean what did you all think was gonna happen? You walk in here and take the Silver briefcase. Just like that?” His tone hinted at disappointment. His gun still aimed at me. The two men circled slowly. My heart raced against my chest. Unconsciously, my fingers reached over to wrap around my tummy. Silently, I prayed for this to end immediately.“What do you mean, Gustav? Boss asked for the briefcase like he always does. What the hell is wrong?” Gustav curled up a sadistic smile. “You still don't get it do you? How can you be F**king pretending like you don't know what this is about! I'm a

- QUINN -My eyes went to the antique Arabian clock placed on a stand in the study. It just struck 10 and there was still no word from Gina and Will. I tried to revert my attention to the files on my desk but my concentration kept wondering off. I shut the papers in defeat. I had tried real hard to pretend I wasn't worried but now I couldn't. I just sent them to retrieve a loot. It should not take that long. I left the custom-made rocking chair I had sat in and trained up to my cellphone placed nicely at the edge of the desk.I would have to call them since they weren't calling me. ‘She better have a good reason for making me restless like this’.My fingers touched the phone, it buzzed immediately. I was lightly startled. I flipped it open and read the text message.“Boss, someone reported a shooting in Diamond Eyes Casino. I don't know if there are casualties until I get there. I am guessing it is the reason the silver briefcase had not reached HQ all morning.My face paled. They

- GINA -The doctors took me from his arms the moment the car door opened. I was placed on a stretcher. He stood beside me, wheeling ne into the emergency room. He was silent, just staring into my eyes. I could tell he was remorseful but there was something off about his look. As if he doesn't know how to feel.Treatment commenced almost immediately. Their major concern was to ensure that trauma did not affect my baby. I had bruises everywhere, cuts in several other places.When they had finished in the theater, I was safely placed in a nice cream-painted room decorated with myriad flowers, white cushions and curtains adorned wih fauna. The EKG beeping one sound at a time, almost resonating with my breathing.Quinn was in the room. Sitting on a whirl chair, which was placed a bit away from me. He had his face buried on one palm and the other placed on his lap. From the bed, where I examined him, I could tell, he looked exhausted and pensive.I took slow breaths, letting my tears driz

GINA'S POV“Sofia, I don't want to hurt you.” his voice was low, melancholic.“I don't care what you want. Stop calling me that name. It's not mine.”“If it's revenge yiu want. You have it. Six years if living without you has been a nightmare. Living with you… its killed me.”“No it hasn't.” I pulled close, holding his gaze. A glare in my eyes. “I want you to wish see you wish you were burnt alive.”“Sofia-”“Leonardo. You think a heartbreak will cut it. Will make me stop. Look at me!” I yelled into his face. “I had to cut my face off just to come back and you really think your petty wounded heart will fix things!”He was silent, just staring at me. For some reason that only made my anger worsen.I clenched down on my teeth so much it would crack. I suppressed the anger. Taking deep breaths and long exhales. A thousand bad things were tugging at me. Begging me to act but I tightened my grip and held it back.“You know what, never mind. You shouldn't have bothered digging all this up

GINA'S POV I frowned when Quinn laughed at what I just told him. He could see the dark look in my eyes but he still thought it was amusing.“It's not funny Quinn" My son thinks he is a hero because he saved his teacher from an imaginary bad guy with a gun.”He chuckled again, cutting his bacon. “Let the boy dream. Its nice to know he is already thinking alot about what he wants to be in the future.”I rolled my eyes. “I haven't decided I want he to be a cop so let's drop that.” He grinned. “I wonder what you are worried about. At least he is not thinking about girls.” He eyed me, taking a tender bit out of the bacon. He licked his lips.I threw the napkin at him. “Fucker.” He chuckled, devilishly. But when he saw that I wasn't wearing my smiling face again, he had to stop.“Look Gina. His passion is taking form. You should be happy. If you don't like it, now is not the time to trample on it. The boy already missing you enough. You should be there first before you start

LEO’S POV “She may have just wanted to start a new life and decided a change of identity would work well.” I crossed my leg and stoked my chin. “If that's the case, a new name would not be enough to give her a different life.” Montolo gasped, his lips parted and his eyes lit up like chrismas lights. He turned to his computer immediately. “What did you realize?” I asked him. “Plastic surgery. It's the perfect way to change your identity. Surgeries follow no specific restructure guideline but merely changes different proportions of the face, usually leave their patients with an appearance similar to a thousand different persons.” He stopped. “She did have surgery.” I glanced into the screen. He has sized up her face with several types of computer tools and it isolated portions that are artificial. There are a good number of them. “Your girl had surgery more than once to get that pretty face.” I was silent all the while. Just staring at the screen. A thought gnawing at my he

LEO’S POV I popped open the car door and stepped down. I took a moment to take in the surrounding. It still seem rather hard to believe. ‘Where the hell am I?’The place is not in any map and it wasn't hard to tell why. The desolation is enough to tell you no school can exist here. The dilapidated buildings complimented the filth and decay that perfumed the air around us. “Right this way.” The escort said. Montolo has assigned someone to pick me up. There is no way I would have found her all by myself. I followed him. Head up and eyes forward, trying to ignore the eyes that stared my way. Montolo had stated in his report that I wear something very local and simple but still, I looked like a millionaire In their midst.The eyes kept watching me until I disappeared into the impoverished looking kiosk attached to a collapsing building. My skin crawled at the thought of what might be going on, on their mind “Where is this place?” I asked the escort.“Id I told you it wouldn't

LEO’S POV I watched the little kids troupe out through to gates, in their matching uniforms and colored bags. For some unforeseen reasons Which I may or may have not caused, school has to close up early.Somehow, Alduro got me a chance to keep Quinn from knowing about this but I have roughly an hour before he got wind of it. It is enough. All I needed is time to get to know that boy.I put a cigarette in my mouth and clicked the lighter. The little boy hopped out immediately. I abandoned everything and climbed down the car. That tiny brat is as smart as a fifteen year old so I have to calmly approach him. He was standing in front of the school gate, looking around for the car that picked him up, always. He had a bandage around two of his fingers and a cute flush on his cheeks.His attentom was so completely immersed in his vigil that he didn't notice me until I had gotten close but once he did. He tucked his bag firmly on his back and eyed my every step. He looked ready to ru

I got down through the elevator and exited the hospital. It is almost noon and I have decided to pick up baby Derek myself.I held been awfully detached from him lately. He must really hate me now. I sighed while I walked to her car. Today, an amusement park just down town would be making its grand opening. I would take him there and I would let him play with the water gun, if I have to. Anything to make it up to him.My eyes tailed the roll of cars in the parking lot, unconsciously searching for mine. Georgie was driving and he is the type to stay away from Cameras. I chose flats today instead of heels so I'm practically taking ghost steps all the way through the car. Unless you spotted me, nothing could make you notice I was there. The closer I got to what seemed to be my car, the more obvious the whispers I have been ignoring.Now I am three cars out and I could tell, with certainty, that the conversations is coming from beside my car. I leaned on the black SUV next to me,

GINA'S POVStanding outside, watching the nurses run checks up on the man who is lying on a comfy autopedic bed, most of his limbs broken and an ear blasted clean off. I swinged myself back and forth trying to find the courage to do what I have been rehearsing all morning. I took another look inside the ward. The nurses are almost done and are just chatting him up to relax him after they have given him news that one of his legs might get amputated. As the thought came to me, I found myself pausing to study the man on the bed. His injuries are no joke. Third degree burns on several parts of his body and fractures in several more. The combination used to make that bomb Quinn left for them is really high-risk and bloody dangerous. I brushed off the doubt building up inside me immediately. I had told Quinn not to kill Reggie and he promised me. There is no way he would go back on his promise, I think. Unintentionally, my eyes strayed to the framed picture in my handbag. The re

She spun around, looking at me with her face already wet with tears. The white light from the Crest-shaped bulbs made her tears shimmer and her pale skin glow.Tonight she has come to me in a Black strapless gown falling above her knee. The hem have these beautiful flora finishings that made her slender legs look like art. She had lost quite some weight since the last time I have bothered to take a long look at her and that was a week after she killed Sophia Immediately that thought came to mind, all the beauty I had previously noticed, disappeared. It became clear to me Sophia’s death was indeed the reason I couldn't even look at her anymore.I used to drool over her shape, her intuition and her foxy shenanigans. It's true I married her because I needed her father's wealth, she is still the total package I had hoped for.“You called for me.”“I need to know something?”“What?” Our voices where barely audible. Two whispering voice of people who had become emotional gripped by

LEO’S POV I stood afar watching those little chirping things popping up from behind the gates and rushing to hug their parents. They wore the biggest smiles and complained about the smallest things. They also broke anything they touched, which is so annoying but still, it doesn't make the fact that children are like hot coco on a cold day. I exhaled, slightly saddened by the beautiful sight I have been beholding. For half a second, I sort of wanted one for myself.The honking of a Mercedes Benz shot me right out of my reverie. I threw a bloodshot eye behind. Apparently some blind bitch is trying to make me wheel out of the parking space.She even yelled. “This is my spot buddy, get out.”I eyed her, one hand on the passenger side and another on a full loaded silencer. She yelled again. Reminding me this time who she is and how I am an ass for parking in her space. I looked away from her, calming my peaking rage and deciding that I will not be violent in front of children. I
