BETRAYED BY THE MAFIA LORD Chapter Twenty-three
- GINA -The cold winds whooshed and whirled around me, fluttering the end of my coat and playing with my hair. I stood like I had been frozen, in the middle of the rooftop of this dilapidated building, so frail, It seemed as through it might come falling over if I take a step.I could see people, three men, one rested nicely on a wooden chair while the others stood around him. There was a baby basket in the arms of one of them. I could hear a child crying. I wanted to rush over, to madly rip my baby out of their filthy grip and put a bullet through their skulls but I knew better. Looking Unphased was key in any negotiation.So the silence dragged on between us. They seemed to be waiting for something and I didn't know what it was. It was driving me crazy not knowing that.I hated every bit of me, with each passing second. The memories of life since I met Leo played like a CD tape before my eyes. How vulnerable I had always been. How I never really acted until my death was near. I w

A WEEK LATERMy guess is, something like this had never happened before in this house or this city to be frank because in the passing days after the incident, everyone hovered around like ghosts. I was confined to the room, me and Derek. Quinn never came by and Hailey hopped in just to see the baby. She exchanged no words with me. I adjusted the best I could, to the change. Making it all seem like routine but deep down it was eating me up inside.And the fact that I was incapable of conceiving any plan to make amends, brought back the helpless feeling.On the seventh day after the kidnapping, I decided… I would get things back the way they were even if I had to beg.It was evening, the roses on the left axis of the garden had freshly bloomed and it looked like the eve of spring. The scent enveloped the atmosphere, as if soothing both of us for the conversation I was about to have with Hailey, who sat next to me, tangling her hair in her finger.I took a deep breath and started. “Hail

It has been a week since that night. Quinn had only asked for me once after that day. He was more savage the second time. He didn't even wait for me to come to him. He came into my room, bolt the door and stripped.“Come to me. I need you.” Was all he said. I reminded him we were not going all the way, he didn't seem to want to at all. He just wanted to play. And that's what I did. Pleasuring him, anyway I could until he was groaning and begging.A while ago, I learnt from Hailey that Quinn was having a hard time although he didn't say why. It made sense why he came by. He wanted me to help with his heavy heart.I saw this as a chance to make my move. I had been meaning to make some demands from him however I couldn't find the right time. But now, in this lovely afternoon, while he lay in my arms with only his pants on and I played with his hair; It felt just right to say it now.“Quinn.”“Mhmm.” His eyes were closed.“I have something I need to tell you.”“What?” He sounded slightly

I didn't go out with Quinn for a while after that, partly because he got busy. He was trying to recover a port that he lost to someone. I took the time to heal my mind from the fear that the training had stuffed into me. I still wanted to do it but It was freaking me out. I couldn't lie to myself about that.After some weeks, his schedule freed up. Hailey traveled for a while. She didn't tell me where but Quinn knew and he didn't complain. I was in the house alone with Quinn and Derek.Derek had grown a tooth so the visiting doctor told me I had to start getting him to eat other food other than just breast milk. The day I decided to shop, Quinn was out and he assigned Georgie to me.We visited the baby stalls first. Georgie had his orders, so he hung around me everywhere I went. “Mam, which one do you prefer?” the sweet Burnette asked me. She was standing beside the breast milk pumpers. “I am not quite sure.” I said, a bit nervous about Georgie listening in. I wished again that

The whole world seemed to be spinning and I was moving with it. My eyes were trying to open but my head hurt. I felt a hand place gently on my behind. The touch jerkede back to reality. It was peach black where ever I was and my legs were off the floor. I was been carried. ‘The robbers. They got me’. That was the first thought that hit me. I wasn't going to be held captive. Not again. I grabbed whatever I could and pulled on it. I heard the robber groan, he fell to the side, hitting the wall. I fought to get off his shoulder, my struggle throwing us on the ground. I scammered off my feet, to run. He grabbed me, pulling me down, I hit the ground again.“Get off of me.” I spoke up, as loud as I could.“Get off, you son of a…” I fidgeted, kicking Vigorously. The man was stronger, larger. He wound over me and my hands are pinned to the ground.“Calm down.” He said in between pants. “It's just me.”“Georgie?” I recognized his voice immediately. My heart eased up the next instant. I

I watched the birds play tag outside my window. The trees rustled gently from the breeze. The city outside bustled and hustled with a serene Sense of modern peace and the roses in my hospital ward perfumed the air with a mixture of unrealistic expectations.Expectations for all this to just go away. I was tired. Sincerely tired. Over two years ago, all I wanted was to make a family with the hottest boy in the club. He had a dangerous job, I knew that but it only exhilarated me. Only made him dangerously attractive.And now, in just a span of one year, I lost everything and I was becoming who I feared. Up till now, I still hadn't felt anything about shooting someone dead. I had become incapable of remorse.All this would have never happened if Leo and I stayed together. If Leo stayed with me.I took in a deep breath and exhaled. My mind drifting out of those hallucinations of my haunting past. I still have a future to live for. But I didn't know exactly what to do with it.“Woman of s

~ LEO’S POV ~I massaged my temples and let out an exhale of utter impatience. The musk scent worn over my cologne left a lingering indication of my savage indifferent desires to end the life of the man dangling off the ceiling in chains.I let out slow, calming breaths and took another look at him. He seemed almost peaceful. And it makes my rage erupt. I grabbed the gun on the table and clicked the trigger. He opened his eyes, unfazed by the threat of getting blown into bloody pieces.“Guns? Come on Leo, you can do better.” He mocked.“You really are as insane as they say you are.” I tucked the gun back in, stepped over the small table and walked to him. I leaned real close to his ear and whispered.“You know you do not need to die from this. Just point me in the right direction and I will be on my way.”He stared at me from the corners of his eyes and then made a small chuckle.“Leo Fernandez, you will never find him. Quinn De Luna, is a ghost and sooner or later, he will come haun

~ GINA’S POV ~I washed my hands for the third time at the hotel sink before I sanitize again and went to lying wearily on my bed.I hope more than anything that this would be the last time I would have to do that to Leo again. The very sight of him disgusted me.I glanced past the florescent lamp, to an alarm clock on the bedside table. It was still a little past 5. Hailey would not be here till evening. I missed my Derek already. I want to hear him call me ‘mummy’ again.I slipped out of bed and undressed. Then I glided into the large walk-in closet and stood stark naked in front of the mirror.There was nothing. Absolutely nothing left of Sofia’s features. I had become a new woman. After that incident at the mall, Three years ago, I had been all out and about, investing time and money into self-confidence, power and prowess.The world that Leo dwelled in, will certainly not be expecting me and what I had in store. This wasn't like back then, I knew the ropes now and I knew it well

BETRAYED BY THE MAFIA LORD Chapter Ninety
LEO’S POVShe stared at me, voiceless. I scoffed. “So now you can’t talk?” Really?”She pursed her lips; fear in her eyes. I walked off, trying to blow off the rage building up inside me. It didn’t work. I shot a bloody gaze at her. She flinched a little but then composed herself. Every bit of her telling me she is not backing down easily.“You don’t scare me, you bastard.”I ignored her walking away.“Sam. Sam. Sam. Don’t push me. I’ve done everything for you. I had my business put on hold because you asked me to be here. I’ve bought everything you said you needed, snuggled you in at night. Every space of time I have is virtually occupied by you an our child. I haven’t lain a hand on a woman months before you said you were pregnant but still…” I took a moment, to suck in a breath . then I spun around to look her in the eyes.“Still you call me 50 times every day. You text me nonstop and you keep accusing me of sleeping around. You’ve gone mad Samantha. I won’t let you drive me crazy

LEO’S POVTHREE MONTHS LATERIt never rains this much in may. Tonight is different. The downpour was twice as heavy. Cold winds froze the windshield and seeped in through the windows I had cracked open. The damp road reeked of grease and motor oil. My phone is on vibrate, dancing away on the passenger seat. You would expect that I would be dying to get home; to get warm. But honestly, I wasn’t. the cold site me just fine. The chilling feeling of my bones contracting as my body iced; it is a peace I havn’t felt in a while. For a moment, I actually thought that my entire life would turn out to be a dream if I closed my eyes and let the cold enveloped me in her arms full of icy nectar. Oh how I missed the quiet. I could get used to..A hand banged against my window, jolting my thoughts. I heaved, squeezing the revolver holstered to my weight. I sucked in a breath and exhaled slowly, trying to let the anger out. That son of a bitch better have a good reason for this. I opened my eyes and
BETRAYED BY THE MAFIA LORD Chapter Eighty-eight
GINA'S POVI stood in front of the mirror built-in to the left door of the giant closet inside the luxury penthouse. The cold morning breeze wafts the curtains and chills my skin. I have only what nature has given me, on. My eyes are closed. It has been a very long year but nothing beat nearly losing my son to that lunatic, Leo. The people I lost and the fear I had to endure still left bone chilling memories that just couldn't fade.Well, Derek is finally far away from all this but for some reason I couldn't get the peace I thought I would. Perhaps it’s because I couldn't call. Hailey must have crossed multiple continents by now; there is no way I could get to her from a cell phone. I know where she would be eventually and after was that make me so restless. My son isn't going to see me again, not for another four or even Ten years. I wondered how I could cope. I think that is the reason I haven’t been able to feel at ease.I took a deep breath and open my eyes. The figure that stood

AL DURO'S POVI watched him stare listlessly, from the Golden Brown door to the wallpaper and back to his glass of wine but it was just to refill it and repeat the action again. Honestly, in all the time I have been with Leonardo Fernandez I had never seen him so devastated. I have to admit I found myself acknowledging that I hit the guy pretty hard. Not that I didn't like it though. Leonardo sighed heavily. It drew my attention.“You know, brandy can't help you.”He ignored me well more like he didn't hear me. His eyes are sullen, his head falling and gloom marred his features. In a way he is like an awoken corpse.“Leonardo I'm being honest.”He rose, not sparing me any glance while he walked to the bar counter in his living room to pick the fifth bottle of brandy. I sprung to my feet from the armchair I had occupied, launched towards him and grabbed the bottle.“Quit it man, you are stronger than this!”He gave me a blank stare and then grinned mockingly.“I thought so too, well,

GINA’S POVI wheeled into the parking lot of the hanger. An ambulance right behind me, roughly screeching to a halt. I hopped down, lifting a revolver gun out of the car. The ambulance door swung open and Quinn alighted. A bazooka placed on his shoulder. His radio was reporting. “Nothing living on site Boss.”He looked at his men in the ambulance. “It’s clear, move him now.” Quinn ordered. I took the front, they followed behind me. The jet just a few feet away. Three guards lay in wait with a woman. She has a thin purple scarf over her neck, covering part of her face.The doctors pushed the stretcher onward. Derek had been strapped down on so he wouldn't fall. Quinn hovering around us, watching the parameter. The doctors pushed Derek up into the craft while I stopped in front of the lady.Her face is hidden but I could tell she is smiling.“Thank you… Hailey. This means the world to me.”“You don't need to thank me. It’s Derek we were talking about here. I love him like he is my ow
BETRAYED BY THE MAFIA LORD Chapter Eighty-five
GINA'S POV That long, dragging piercing sound of a faulty radio, that's the only thing I could hear when my head hit the ground. My eyes flickered and the pain in my head just didn't stop gnawing at me.I held what seemed like the bashed side and tried to pull myself up. The whole world is in chaos. Black boots stumbling back and forth beside me. Men yelling... falling. There is blood everywhere.I couldn't think but my subconscious mind is able to calculate and know that I have to flee so I did. Stomping around like I was blind. The debris of blown up rocks with jagged edges tore the skin on my feet. I groaned but I couldn't put myself together enough to tell which way is right.Someone is yelling, his voice tried to break through the screeching sound in my ear but it couldn’t. I couldn't tell what he was saying. Until… he grabbed me “Take cover.” He dragged me down with him, enveloping me in his arms. An explosion erupted the very next second. I shrunk into his enclosure, shudder

I heard the baritone voice behind the door. I spun around immediately. A relieved smile settling on my face. I had been waiting for him. I let go of the hem of my shirt rumble by my grip. The door opened slowly and Quinn walked in. His clothes are ripped a little and he is covered in dust. Tears weld up in my eyes. With our lips sealed I asked him, if he was hurt. He heaved and shock his head. He wasn't . I ran to him and hugged him. We shared a passionate kiss for a moment before we disengaged. He pulled me to him and we both faced Reginald.“You said you could find him right?” Quinn asked.“Yes.” He said, navigating away from his bed.“Leonardo has two safe houses. Four months back, one of the was burned out so they decided to make the second one fire proof. Then when Gina came, he began to fantasize having a family so he renovated the place to look like a home. If he is taking him to a safe place then that's the location.”“Directions, We don't have time.” Reggie shock his
BETRAYED BY THE MAFIA LORD Chapter Eighty-three
GINA'S POV I greeted the nurses and found my way down the hall. Reggie's ward has been changed. He was in a more luxurious one. I wore Shades over my eye and my hair down. The bandages ha been removed, some places on my face has been badly scarred. The doctor said I couldn't get surgery yet. I have gotten quite a few in past already. So, I have to wear some plasters and so my hair hid them.I got to the room on that floor, knocked and waited. I heard light giggling and ruffling of sheets then the door opened. A young nurse greeted me and scurried off. A button undone in her apparel. I walked in slowly, looking around the room. At the femminie choice of flowers and the heavy scent of ladies’ choice cologne. I shock my head, pulling myself a seat. Reggie is watching me, my face to be precise. It has been a while since I visited because of the accident.“What are you looking at? We haven't spoken in weeks and the wallpaper is what first catches your attention?”.“Not really.

Alduro hopped down the tinted SUV he had parted a while back. He put his shades up and majestically walked up to my car. He knocked on the windows.“It's a hundred plus degrees out here now. How can you not be stewing in that car?” I popped the door open. “Get in.”Alduro feigned a chilling sign mocking me as usual before climbing into passenger seat. I swerved, hitting the road the next moment.“Did you station the surveillance like I asked you? Yeah. There was a glitch though with one of my own but it's been fixed.” He answered, his tone had that unchanging hoarseness.“Good.”“Where to now?” “I'm going to see my son.”“Yeah he will definitely jump for joy once a total stranger grabs him in front of his school.” He chuckled. I glanced at him from the corner of my eyes. He didn't even try to hide the sarcastic look on his face.“Sometimes I wonder where you find the creativity of yours to piss me off like this.”“It's god’s gift.” He best his chest, and laughed.“The boy
