Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 21. Scorpione Nero
“Hold up… You said you got your piece from my brother, right?” Angelo asked skeptically “Yeah” “Does that mean he is one of them?” He asked, feeling unsure of his feelings.“No. He isn't. They wouldn't wanna kill him if he's one of them.” She reasoned.“Alright. Now tell me all you know about this scorpione nero you speak about.” Angelo asked. He was really curious to hear about them. If they wanted to take out Giovanni, then they were more dangerous than he thought.“The scorpione Nero which means the black scorpion in English is an ancient Italian cult founded some centuries ago by a group of elite Italian scientists, administrators, and other men of high intellectual standards. They believe greatly in science and astrology.” She explained.“Wow! Sounds really powerful,” he exclaimed.“Ya. Many years ago, they were declared dangerous and the church labeled them an enemy. Some of their members were killed and they fled into secrecy. They haven't made a public appearance for many dec

Giovanni rushed out of the office and ran to his car. He revved the engine to life and zoomed off. It was a few minutes past six am when his phone began ringing again.“Hello,” he said, as soon as he picked up the call. He controlled the steering wheel with one hand while his other hand held the phone to his ear.“There is a report of a burnt-up car along via copressi. Happened early hours of this morning.” the caller informed him.“Look, I have other important things to deal with right now. You can check it out and send a report to me.” Giovanni replied.“I have already done that, and I think you might wanna have a look.” the caller replied. From his tone, Giovanni knew that something was actually wrong.“Alright, I'll be there in ten minutes.” he sighed before dropping the call. He slowed the car to a stop and made a U-turn. He could hear the loud sound of sirens as he drove closer to Via Copressi. The scene of the burnt car was rounded with a no-entry sign. He parked his car at a s

Giovanni walked into the room in his building where the meeting with the capos was supposed to hold. It was a little room in his building where such meetings were always held. The room was dark, thanks to the black curtains that prevented the brightness of the sun from penetrating inside the room. The four capos of the different street districts of the city were already seated. All dressed in black suits, their faces were stoic and they sat in silence. Giovanni inside the room and stood in front, followed by his consigliere. “Good morning, gentlemen.” he greeted, looking at everyone's faces. Nobody held a smile. The atmosphere was tense as they all waited for him to continue. “This morning, I got some not too pleasant news. Evil just hit the Cherisi family.” he paused again before continuing “I need you all to maintain a firm grip on your sections. Protect it with all your might and if you find any foreign force lurking around, report directly to me.” The men all nodded in agreemen

“Alright, we have a deal,” Giovanni replied, making Luigi smile. She stretched his hand forward and Giovanni took it in a firm handshake. He knew what he just signed up for. Marrying Luigi's daughter was more difficult than it seemed. Luigi was a traditional man who believed in the principles of marriage.“Let's toast to that,” Luigi replied. Giovanni raised his glass like he was forced to. After his first meeting with Luigi some weeks ago, he had ordered one of his men to keep an eye on his daughter and the information he got was sickening. She was a wild one who loves popping pills, attending parties, and having wild sex. He was going to have to tame her for the few years they were gonna stay together.“Now that I have agreed on that, I think you can now give me some answers, or don't you think so?” Giovanni asked.“Ya. Right.” Luigi replied with a smile. He picked up the parceled paper and opened it gently as if it contained a great secret. He cleared his throat before starting to s

Alessio shook with fear in his seat. One look at the man in front of him could send a man pissing his pants. The tension in the room thickened as Alessio stared at him hard, his cheekbone ticking every second. “I have one question for you, and I want you to answer me truthfully.” the Anonymous man said without a smile. Alessio nodded multiple times in agreement. He was in a state of monumental shock.“Were you involved in the death of Mateo Verrilli?”Alessio stared at him for some minutes before inhaling deeply. He opened his eyes and looked at Enzo straight in the eyes. “No. I didn't like Alessio, but I had no hand in his death,” he replied Enzo inhaled sharply before rising from his seat. “Alright then. I will see you soon, and that will be your last day on earth,” he revealed and flashed him a scorning smile before walking out. Alessio's heart beat hard against his chest every passing second. How dare that man come into his domain to threaten him. He gritted his teeth in anger b
Last Updated : 2023-02-01Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 26. The summons
With each passing day, Giovanni was beginning to lose hope about seeing his brother again. He had organized a search party to search the whole of Palermo and so far they had found nothing. Slowly he was starting to believe that his brother was truly dead.The other family heads were currently on his neck. After his clubhouse was burnt down some months ago, he had closed down trade in the city. Most of the trade done was backhand trade which he decided not to clamp down on.A knock sounded on the door of his office and he raised his head from the file he was working on. He had spent most of the hours of the past few days since his brother's abduction locked inside his office. The knock sounded on his door again and he groaned before responding.The door was pushed open and one of his capos stepped in. He had jet black hair with a thick black beard. He had a sharpened jawline and a scar on his left cheek that made him look naturally dangerous. “Buongiorno capo” he greeted with a slight

Romano remained silent. He wouldn't dare to say anything against the powerful man he was seated with. Any mistake in speech he made could land him dead.“When you complete the task successfully, you will be initiated as a first degree member of the brotherhood.” the man informed him and he grinned. Joining the brotherhood was his lifelong dream. He often fantasized about the powers he would have if he joined.****“You are telling me you have nothing on this masked Man?” Alessio bellowed at his soldier who bowed timidly in his office.“Yes sir” his soldier replied, his head still bowed to the ground. Alessio scoffed in disbelief “So you want me to believe that a masked man walked in here, took all of you out, walked in on me, threatened me, and walked out unscathed, and even after 48 hours, you're telling me you have no trace of him?” Alessio screamed in annoyance.The soldier remained quiet. He knew he had failed his boss. He had tried everything possible, but finding the man had pro

He unbuckled the belt of his trouser and let it slide to the ground. Left in his underwear, he climbed on the bed and crawled slowly to her. Joan lay on the bed and spread her legs wide. She was dressed in a short black gown that rode up to her waist.Giovanni put his hand on her back and slowly unzipped her gown, pulling it off her body. He threw it and it fell to the ground with a light thud. His eyes roamed around every part of her body as he stared at her, his deep brown eyes glinting with lust.Now dressed in red sexy lingerie, she pushed herself up on the bed and crawled a few steps until she knelt in front of Jack who was at the edge of the king-sized bed. He pulled her closer by her hair and ran his right hand across her toned belly. He dragged his hand to her boobs. They were round and big and felt soft in his large palm, a contrast to his strong palm.“You are sexy asf.” His husky voice muttered, a few inches away from her eyes. She giggled in a horny fit of excitement. The a

Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 100. Epilogue - The wedding and the happy ever after
Giovanni was dressed in a blue tuxedo as he stood nervously and impatiently in front of the priest for his bride. What started as a rocky hate relationship blossomed into marriage and they were now about to tie the knot. Looking back at everything, he was grateful to her for sticking around. His underboss stood some distance behind him, dressed in a similar suit while his mother and members of the two families took the first few rows.The tune soon started playing and Giovanni turned to see his bride walking down the aisle with Enzo. He smiled unconscionably as he watched her take graceful steps. She was dressed in a big white wedding dress and held a bouquet of flowers in her hand. They got to where he stood and Enzo nodded at him, handing Cielo over to him.“You look very beautiful today. I'm a fucking lucky man,” he whispered into her eyes and she smiled. They walked hand in hand to the front of the priest and he began the proceeding. It was Cielo's suggestion to go with a church we
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 99. Happy endings
Giovanni and Cielo spent their vacation at Seychelles island somewhere in Africa. They spent most of the day on the beach or waterside. Sometimes they went scuba diving, rock climbing, or visited the Morne national park. They also went on helicopter rides often.They had spent five days already and tonight, they were preparing for a dinner date.“Why can't we just have this dinner indoors?” Cielo whined for the umpteenth that evening. She was yet to put on her dress while Giovanni was already done with his. He was dressed in a black tuxedo suit and a white shirt. He wore diamond earrings and had a matching diamond watch on his left wrist.“Because tonight is a special night, besides, we haven't been to any of the top notch restaurants around here,” Giovanni replied, placing his hands on her waist. “Ya. Right,” She gave up and went to take out her dress. It was a blue full length dinner dress that had a slit from her thigh downward. It was tight and hugged her body perfectly, exposing
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 98. Reconciliation
Giovanni wrapped up the last file he was working on and heaved a sigh of relief. Everything had been going on well over the last month. The family business was booming, he was getting more clients and investors and Palermo was calm. The only area of worry he had now was his love life. Cielo had refused to see him since then even after he had tried to plead on different occasions.He had been away for over two weeks and now that he was back in town, he was going to try to speak to her again. He arranged the files on the table before getting up. He picked up his phone from the table and checked the time on it. It was a few minutes past five pm. He stepped out of the office and locked the door before getting into his car.“Knew I was gonna find you here,” Giovanni said and Cielo turned to look at him. Her mouth opened in surprise as she stared at him. He smiled at her and she smiled back.“How did you find me here?” she questioned with a shy smile. She had missed him a lot and seeing him
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 97. Keeping an eye for family.
Enzo waited patiently in the back seat of the jeep for his prey. His face was covered in a mask, his hair under a cap and he had a big hoodie on. A perfect disguise for a cold late night.Some minutes later the door of the driver's side of the car opened and someone stepped in. He dropped his phone and a file by the space between the two seats and Enzo counted each passing seconds before he attacked. He took out the gun from under his hoodie silently and cocked it, placing it on the side of Gallo's head.Gallo tried to act immediately but he hit him hard on the side of his head with the butt of the gun. “Gallo Esposito. It's really unsafe to be driving around Palermo alone, especially at this period.” Enzo mouthed without a smile. “I heard what happened to the institution. Also heard you've been looking for who did it. Why do you suspect Cielo Verrilli?” he asked and then paused. He observed the visible shift in his demeanor at the mention of Cielo's name.“What? Surprised that I know
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 96. Death threat
Cielo sat on the chair in front of the large table in Giovanni's mini study sorting some files. It was minutes past 10 am in the morning. Giovanni was still in bed. She had woken up some hours earlier, made breakfast, and got to work. Giovanni had woken up to take breakfast with her and returned to the bed after.She paused and looked at a particular document. She opened it and scrolled through its contents before dropping it in shock. She picked it up and stared at it, unable to believe its content before she stormed to the form with the papers in her hand.She walked into the room to see that Giovanni was no longer on the bed. She heard the water rushing in the ensuite so she waited for him to walk out. He walked out some minutes later, saw her standing with her hands folded, and smiled at her.“Hey,” he said with a cheerful smile.“How long have you known about this?” she asked, producing the paper from behind her and thrusting it into his hands. He raised an eyebrow, surprised at
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 95. Attack on the institution
The scanner scanned her retina and Cielo stepped inside with the heave of a sigh. She had taken off her bulletproof vest and dropped it with Giovanni. Wearing it inside was going to draw a lot of attention to her and she didn't want that. Especially not at this point.There were few people in the hallway so it was easy for her to walk past them. Not like the other agents really cared. The only person that could have been nose high in her business was Piero and he was dead now.“I have gotten in. On my way to the security room.” She informed both Giovanni and Enzo through the device on her ear. She took a left turn as she got closer to the security room. The security room was always locked but she could bypass that.She got to the door and looked around before taking out a key from her pocket. She fixed it into the lock and turned it and the door gave way. She walked in and looked at the different switches in the room. Most of them looked familiar. She walked to the alarm system and br

“Enzo is the son of Matteo Verrilli the late mob boss and he'll be taking over as the head of the family,” Morelli announced and the room went dead silent. Their mouths hung down in shock and he could see the look of surprise on their faces.They soon recovered from the shock and began murmuring among themselves.“What?” Rafael yelled, his eyes burning red in fury. He looked like he could kill anyone at that instant. “What do you mean by that?” he asked, rising from his seat and walking to the front. He gave Enzo a cold stare which he returned. The two men stared at each other coldly before Morelli cleared his throat, making Rafael spare him a glance. “You must surely know Matteo Verrilli. He was a very successful leader and this is his son, Enzo -”“How sure are you? It could be an imposter trying to get into the family.” Rafael interrupted. “I carried out my tests. It is truly a Verrilli blood.” Morelli replied, starting to get irritated by Rafael's bickering.“But you can't do th
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 93. Enzo's return
Giovanni rushed to his side and kicked the gun further away while Enzo stepped in fully. They had been communicating all this time through the device on their ear. Enzo had told him to do as Romano said while he prepared to take a clean shot.Romano coughed on the floor while Giovanni rushed to unbind Cielo.“Where are the fucking keys?” Giovanni screamed at him and he laughed evilly, annoying Giovanni. Giovanni went down on him, punching him before putting his hands in Romano's pocket where he found the key. He got up and left Romano groaning in pain and rushed to Cielo who looked like she could pass out any time.He unlocked the chains and she fell into his arms in a tight hug. She placed her head on his shoulder as tears dropped from her eyes. She whimpered before wiping her tears with the back of her palm.“It's alright, love. I'm here for you.” Giovanni comforted her while he wrapped his arms around her. The hug lasted for some minutes before they pulled away. Enzo handed his gun
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 92. Operation rescue Cielo
“What do you know about the abduction?” Enzo asked. A bit calm now.Giovanni explained everything that happened since he started ringing Cielo till when he went to her house to find her phone on the floor outside.“If we can't find her soonest, we'll have to wait for his call,” Giovanni added. Enzo looked like he wanted to say something but thought against it. He nodded at him before opening the door of his car. He stopped and turned to face Giovanni again.“Put me on when you find something,” he uttered before getting into his car. He drove off leaving Giovanni standing there. Giovanni shrugged before getting into his car and driving off.***Romano walked into the room where Cielo was held and flickered the light on. She gave her an ugly smile as he watched her seated on the cold floor, curled up in the corner. But there was something missing. Fear.There was no look of fear in her eyes, making him surprised. Rather, she looked daringly at him. She snorted as he walked closer and he
