The Bratva Capos sprung into action surrounding the couple and forcing the paparazzi back so they could climb into the waiting limousine. Lissa expected to go back to the hotel to debrief with Mishka but Luca was having none of it.‘Airport’He told Nikita and the Second shot out into the traffic whisking them there quickly and efficiently. Lissa wasn’t given the time to protest Luca practically dragged her on board and ordered the pilot to leave as soon as they were seated.She was furious, he had taken her from the hearing put them on the plane, and returned to the compound. He had not asked her what she wanted to do, he had not even told Mishka, they had just left because it was what he wanted. When they arrived back at the compound he had kissed her absently and headed straight for the office and been ensconced in there ever since.Lissa had showered, changed, and gone to see how the puppies were, they were beautiful, almost ready to leave their Mothers and she had to decide which
He held up his hands and she scowled back at him,‘Well, that is easily resolved Pakhan’She sneered and stood up, walking across to the door she picked up her jacket and calmly removed the ring from her finger tossing it onto the bed and shrugged into the jacket saying,‘I am no longer your woman. We are finished. I have no desire to be with such a self-centred sexist pig. Goodbye Luca’She strode from the room and down the stairs to the door,‘Stop’Luca barked the command and she turned her head,‘You are not leaving’He commanded and she narrowed her eyes,‘Go ahead tell them to shoot me you fucking coward, I would rather be dead than remain here with you’She wrenched open the door and walked out, Mishka’s limousine was idling in the driveway and she walked calmly towards it, she held her body tense fully expecting a bullet to hit her. Luca would never let her go but she refused to rush and her head was held high as she slid into the car next to the Lawyer.‘Let’s get you out of
The Reporter worked for Luca and as the woman walked up the path to her house two men slipped from the shadows and grabbed her tied up her hands they placed a ski mask over her head so she could see nothing. They drove for an hour and pulled up outside a large isolated mansion with a high electric fence around it, once a woman passed through the gates she never left. The blonde was taken to a room and stripped naked then three men entered and the Guard laughed,‘Never piss off an angry Bratva Pakhan you stupid woman. You were warned now you’ll earn him money on your back’They left her to her fate and returned to the compound forgetting the photographer until the photo appeared in every newspaper the next day with the heading, ‘Mafia Don dumps beautiful fiancée because she wanted to work’ or words to that effect. When one of the Capo’s brought a copy to him his heart sank but there was nothing he could do it was already out there.Of course, they could not wait to bring it to her atte
She thought blinking at the bright lights around her,‘What was the point of anything without Luca?’The voice in her head said and pain exploded inside her,‘I’ve had enough’She did not realize she had spoken the words out loud and the whole studio fell silent, she rubbed her eyes confused,‘Why wouldn’t her brain work?’‘I’m sorry’The words were slurred as she pushed herself to her feet unsteadily,‘Luca’That word was distinct and filled with all her pain as the camera zoomed in she collapsed into the young Consultants arms, he scooped her up and carried her off the set shouting at the people fussing around them, ‘Call 911, suspected overdose, request immediate support, not knowing what had been taken. Tell them Professor Laurent on the scene.’Lissa lay still and lifeless in his arms as he carried her out into the Reception just as an ambulance pulled up. He wasted no time climbing into the back he said simply,‘Hit the Blues guys and step on it. I think we may be too late.’A
Soft, sweet, and loving, it danced around her mind, cajoling, persuading, and then begging, saying it was sorry over and over again. Every time she came back into consciousness it was there and it meant something to her, she felt it, deep in her psyche. She needed to be with that voice.‘I would like your permission to remove the breathing tube and all our other interventions Sir’The Consultant stood before Luca, shocked at the deterioration in the man, it had been almost a month since Lissa had been brought into the hospital and he had never left her side.‘Remove?’‘Yes Sir, none of it is doing her any good now. We’ve given her all the medical help we can Sir. There is barely any brain function, I need to know if she wants to live.’The Consultant looked at Luca kindly, the shock was evident on the Pakhan’s face,‘Wants?’‘I need to see if she will fight Sir’He said and Luca exploded,‘Will you stop talking in riddles and just fucking explain’He yelled irritably and the Consultan
The woman would not take no for an answer, Luca rebuffed her gently at first, shaking his handsome head and pushing her away when she came back again he was more forceful telling her he was not interested and to keep her hands to herself. She did not listen, flirting openly she rubbed her hand across his crotch suggestively and he grabbed her wrists pinning her hands by her sides,‘You want to be fucked?’His men had quickly surrounded him so no one could see what he did,‘She had looked up at him coyly and said,‘I’m willing if you are’The look of disgust on his face made her realize her mistake,‘I do not fuck whores’He hissed,‘But you are going to find out my men are not so fussy’He pushed her at Mikel,‘The Capo’s ready for a little fun?’Mikel grimaced at his Pakhan,‘You know those young Bucks are always ready’He growled at Luca grabbing the Nurse, quickly without anyone noticing the Bratva Guards removed the Nurse easily and took her down to the waiting surveillance van. W
‘Take her’Luca sprang forward and half a dozen guns were aimed at him,‘Don’t be foolish Bratva, it would be a shame to destroy your little Charity bash now wouldn’t it? Think of the headlines’ Bratva turn Charity into a bloodbath’ I rather like that, but is it worth it for one little pussy?’He turned away,‘If you do as you are told I might return her when I’ve tamed her’Nikita and Dmitri held the Pakhan back until the Mafia had left,‘It’s okay Pakhan Mikel is already tracking them. While he tried to make you angry our men fixed trackers to all their vehicles. The men have been mobilized, let's go and get her back.’Luca nodded an apology to the Organiser and Nikita promised a large donation would arrive the following day as they left the Ball hurriedly.Lissa was thrown into the back of a van that sped off at high speed, every instinct inside her now was in full protective mood, she had to protect her little jellybean, she smiled softly,‘You’re not a jellybean now little one,
She hissed and he sneered tightening his arm around her,‘Not a fucking chance beautiful, you came to me so when I get you out of here we are going to have a lot of fun’He smirked letting his hand roam up and cup her breast squeezing it painfully she spun in his arms using his movement and taking him by surprise,‘I don’t fucking think so’She smirked pressing the gun against him he lunged for her hand but she squeezed the trigger and he gasped in shock releasing her he sank to the floor. Lissa stood still the gun in her hand and blood on her clothing, his blood, she stared at him surprised that she felt nothing as she watched him die. She wasn’t even aware she was trembling until Nikita gently took the gun from her and Luca scooped her into his arms and she relaxed into the warmth of his body against hers.‘Luca?’It was a question and he whispered,‘I’m here’She started to cry softly,‘I’m so sorry’His grip tightened but he said nothing and she broke, her body shaking with silent
