I may be locked in a basement, shit I did it again ‘bedroom’ for the better part of ten years but I still practiced what I remembered from the three short years I was with my mom.
I'd put the mat, I mean ‘bed’ against the wall and as if a boxer in training punch it a few times then I'd kick it. Not to toot my own horn or anything but I'm surprisingly tones for being malnourished. I’d like to say it’s just plain old genetics but I have know idea what my dads physic is and what I remember of my mom was that she was thin but curve. "What happens if she does prove herself as a leader” my aunt asks my uncle “I mean after all she is the next in line, were do you think that will leave you. She'll kill you, she'll kill us as soon as she gets a chance" my aunt spits out and I can't help but smile as I agree with her logic. Aww goals. "Trust me she isn't fit to lead and once they see that, she's out, in the unlikely event she does show she can become Dona I have someone on the inside that is willing to take her out at all costs" oh my dear uncle what a spiny little weasel you are. Deciding I've heard enough I slide myself back down the stairs and over to the little mat I mean ‘bed’ I was given to sleep on and lay down letting all the information I just heard roll around in my head and lull me to sleep. My dreamless beauty sleep is interrupted when I jump awake by what I thought were voices. Straining my ears I listen but hear nothing so I close my eyes and try to get back to sleep. I hear the floorboards creek above me once again, only now it’s getting closer to the basement door. I lay perfectly still and keep my breathing even when I hear the door open. Light from what I’m guessing is a flashlight sweeps across my face. "We found her" a man calls out. "Hand me the rag" I hear another say and I silently take in a lung full of air just as the cloth is placed over my mouth. I thought myself how to hold my breath after my aunt tryed to drowned me a few times or should I say she would try to waterborne me as punishment when I'd let my mouth run wild. Which had been a lot. The guy holds the cloth over my mouth for almost a minute then I feel myself being lifted bridal style. I’m shuffled a little the he starts walking up the stairs and through the house. The night air is somewhat cool and I can hear the sound of a cars engine followed by the sound of a car door. I feel myself being shifted once again before feeling the fuzzy carpet of the cars floorboard under my bare legs. Right did I forget to mention that I’m in my underwear and a thread bare long sleeve shirt. If I did I’m sorry. I didn’t really think it relevant until this moment. "Drive" comes a deep voice that would have most girls wetter then a teenage wet dream in a heart beat. How I know about wet dream you ask? Wiggle of the brows. I found one of those dirty romance books in a box along with some magazines, once when I was super bored and my ant and infle had gone on a week long trip someplace. So yeah.As soon as I feel the car start to move I start counting in my head the best I can to try and gage the distance we've traveled. I count every click of the turn signal and every bump, if my counting is correct then we've been driving for almost two hours. Two hours of cigarette smoke, laughing at dumb ass shit and talking about women as if their mamas raised them to grow up to be dickless men with commitment issues and a hard on for women who will never be worthy of anything more then a quick fuck behind some dingy trash car in a back alley behind some hole in the wall bar. I hear my aunt talk about some trashy ‘whore’ my uncle got caught balls deep inside by the police after they had been called about someone getting killed in the back alley of a bar. Turns out the chick was just very vocal. When the car start to come to a standstill I almost want to stretch but force myself to remain as still as possible. The sound of metal and clanking can be heard by what I'm assuming are big
"I want her brought here tonight and I want it done as if she's being kidnapped" Alessiano says with his back turned towards me while he's looking out the window. My brown come together in confusion as I process his words. "You want us to treat her like she's a pick up" I ask just to confirm. "I want her treated as one as well. I understand that it may seem extreme to have my own daughter brought to me this way," he pauses as if thinking of his next words. "I want to see how she would react to the situation. I want to see if she's as weak as Santino says she is, if she can be so easily broken like he said she can be" Makes sense giving that she's never been a part of this life and as far as her life with Santino she could be every bit the pampered princess. "I want your men to try and break her like our enemies would" "You want us to pick her up and pull out all the stops" I ask again just to confirm. "Yes" is all he says. "Yes Don" I say with a bow and turn to leave the room
The drive is like all the others we’ve made. Bullshitting about some broad one of them picked up in the last twenty-four hours or how long it will take before one of them knocks some one up for not using their actual head to think. When we pull up out side the house we all get out and surround the place. The first to go in through the unlocked door. Yeah I said it unlocked door, like earlier it’s for me to knows and you to mind your own business. Lighting up a smoke I lean against a he car and pull out my phone. Me: Is the girl still in the basement? Santino: Just like I said she would be. Me: What’s her condition? Santino: Alive. The sound of footsteps on the gravel drive way draws my attention up just as Marco comes walking g towards me with a leggy thing held to his chest. “We said pick up not walk downs the fucking isle” “Just cuz you don’t care what the boss says doesn’t me I don’t, he might of said pick up but for all I know it could be a fucking test” Marco says as
Silently I'm hoping she's strong and that they can't brake her, we walk in and take a our seats in the darkest corner of the room just as Carlo throws a bucket of cold water on her. "Wake up bitch" she gasps and jerk upright and looks around the room the girl has bright blue eyes that fit her face perfectly. She’s a good fucking actor I’ll give her that. Even when we were in the car if known she wasn’t asleep, she was awake the whole fucking time. Smart girl. She just sits there looking back at forth between Carlo and Marco as if waiting for them to start what ever they have planned. "Let's have some fun shall we" Marco asks, to which she smirks in challenge. In one quick move Marco then punches the girl in the jaw, I involuntarily jerk forward a little bit and Ales place his hand on my shoulder to keep me calm. “Is there going to be a problem Vale” “No” I say hoping my own words to be true, at this point in the game I can’t afford to let her get to me. "I'm going to ask you
"I wonder if your mom put up this much of a fight before she was killed" Ales shifts a little but keeps quiet, he gave them a little bit of information about her and her mom to see if she'll break and show some emotion. I didn’t agree with them using it against her but if it was the enemy, they would use it against her with out a second thought. It’s emotional manipulation. A very tactical move. "You know what I wouldn't know, you see I was left out side a hospital when I was born" she says with a sad sigh and a frown. “I just wasn’t pretty enough for her to want me” again she sighs sadly and shakes her head as if it’s such a travesty. I'm truthfully impressed with this girl and the amount of shit she’s taken so far. She has a broken nose and is going to need a few stitches over her left eyebrow and possibly on a few on the cuts Carlo made across her thighs and upper arm. Her wrist is swollen and bruised no doubt sprained possible fractured, she has a fat lip and a few other inj
There seems to be a problem among my men and concern about Valentino and his loyalty. I've heard the whispers on my men's lips and seen the surveillance videos of the shipments that I have not signed off on leaving my docks.I'm not blind I've seen the changes in his daminer ever since Demitria has come back. I've seen the lipstick stains on his shirts and I'm very aware of the woman he has set up in a house a little ways away from the house he will be sharing with my daughter.When I announced them to be married I expected him to be more then willing but to my dismay he he was not and it read clearly on his face. I'm well aware that he went out that very night a fucked some whore. I'm also very aware of the way he's treated my daughter and the flirting that's going on between herself and Franco."Please tell Gio and Franco to come see me before lunch" I tell Valentino who just so happened to walk into my office not even 5 minutes after Demi left."Yes Ales. Do you remember that the
Heading up the stairs and in the direction my daughter just headed I stop outside of Francos bedroom door and knock. Why I knew she would be here I have no idea other then her outburst and the clear love in their eyes when the looks at each other."Demi" I say upon seeing her answer the door. She’s clearly making it a point to tell me what she wants but in my position I don’t know what to do at this point."Dad" she says then leaves the room with the door open for me to enter.I walk into the room and stand by the window "When I sent you to look after her I never expected you to develop feelings for her" I turn around so I'm looking directly at him.Franco is a loyal man and has stood by my side many times since he joined the ranks."It has been made very clear that she has different opinions on what she needs as the future Dona of this family and you my boy are who she wants at her side. I'm not saying I disagree with her but I have yet to see more then the errand boy before me" H
I’m a simple man who’s worked hard for his place among the mouth breathers known as the errand boys to the De Leone family.I started from the bottom as a snot nose kid running small dime bags from one street corner to another.Every cent I made was to get my come up’it’s when the time came, and came it did in the form of a well dressed man in a flashy as fuck Rolls Royce that was parked out side Dino’s place.Dionicio Falcon a.k.a Dino was known for stiffing his clients and boss. He was a grimy low life who always had his hand in his own supply or better said the man who came to pay him a visit’s supply.I never claimed to be a smart man but this was my time to shine and fucking shine I did.My balls in my throat and my nerves on level fucking one hundred, I walked through the front door door of the run down one story crack house Dino used for business and emptied my bag.“Come back later kid” Dino ground out but I ignored.Three rubber bands and a small stack of baggies is all I’d h
Unlocking the door, I open it slowly to see an older woman in a beautiful sequent dress coming down the short hall towards the bathroom. Fixing my dress and I step out of the bathroom and halt the lady just outside the door."I'm sorry ma'am but you do not want to go in there right now" I tell her making a show of gaging and fanning the air "While I was washing my hands a man banged into the restroom" she gasps "He's left the restroom permeated with whatever he's doing in the stall." I cover my mouth and elan closer to her as if I'm about to tell her a secret "I believe he's smoking some kind of drug" she gasp again and wrinkles her already wrinkled nose."Oh, my dear, well come on let's go get the manager or tell the owner, I believe I saw him sitting at one of the tables" she links our arms and together we start walking back into the dining area.As we walk, I scan the area seeing that Vics now outside. With two men down and one hell of a car chase home left to deal with I contempla
Our dinner thankfully goes as planned and we aren’t interrupted. Our guys clock the for men and repost three more towards the front at a table just behind a faux wall of shrubs that divide the outside seating area with the inside.Out plan changes slightly but only by number of people we each need to take out.Wine drank and dinner done I stand and excuse myself from the table at the same time Vic stands and tells the waitress he will take the check outside when it’s ready because as he tells her a meal that good needs a smoke afterwards.“Under the counter two silenced 9mm and an extra clip, the door to the left leads to the alley” La Clair says as I walk past still acting as if I have no clue I’m being followed.“Excuse me madam” La Clair says louder to catch more attention so it doesn’t seem as if we have been talking. “How was your meal” “It was absolutely delicious, thank you” I say then head in the direction of the bathrooms.Making sure the bathroom is clear I quickly grab th
The drive to the restaurant is silent, not an awkward one but a content one. Vic drove tonight but of course we have back up for a just in case situation.Vic looks extremely good in a white button down shirt and black slacks with the harness thing he has on over the shirt. He looks like he’s about to walk a runway and enter some kind of kinky sex play role all at the same time.Thinking about him wearing that harness while he screws my brains out against a wall has me pushing my thighs together.He chuckles and I know he knows what I’m thinking.The valet hold my door open for me as I step out of the car and wait for Vic to come to my side. Hand in hand we walk into the not overly crowded restaurant and are greeted by a woman who’s showing way to much chest to be actually acceptable or appropriate.“Table for two under the name De Leone” Vic tells the woman who’s leans forward a little bit to show her more of her push up bra stuffed chest.I kiss my teeth and find myself wanting to r
The next three days are full meeting with doctors and lawyers as we prepare what ever is needed for Nina.Ginny as I've now started calling him reminds me so much of Vic. Vic was like a ghost appearing in one room to the next and then disappearing just as fast.Ginny's smart and unfortunately to Nina's dismay has taken an unexpected interest in the knives throwing range. We don't know how he found it but he did and has been driving Kennith cray with his persistence on begging him to teach him how to throw.Last night I found Ginny in here with three small daggers, tossing them at the target then stomping his little feet to retrieve them when he missed."So the medicine will be on a timer and automatically be administere, I'll be back in two days to either change the doses or leave it as is depending on how you feel" the doctor tells Nina while gathering up his bag."Remember this isn't a cure it's a way to help keep the pain at a minimum to allow you more freedom to move around and be
"I don't want you to think that just because I showed up, I'm after money of something, because I'm not" she says going straight for the punch.I slide a file out from under the tray Lucy just set on the table and open it."Gionina Raquel Daniels, born March seventeenth, nineteen-ninety-two, you were in and out of foster homes until the age of ten when you were adopted by a lovely gay black couple from Rochester" I glance over to see her eyeing the file in my hand."Your due to be evicted from your one-bedroom apartment in a week your boss is a dick, and my dad left you nothing" I tell her feeling myself spitting out the words as I say them."My dad was not a kind man who thought like a normal dad should, he though like what he was... a mafia man who's only job or concern is to keep things running and make sure we as his children learned to struggle for survival. If you are to accept the offer, I'm about to make just know that once you do there's no getting out of it" I say looking he
"I do trust me, I do. I didn't grow up in this I was thrown into it and told to swim" I chuckle softy “But like it or not he" I point to Gianni "Will always be a part of it and now that my dad's gone whet ever protection he kept on you and will be up to me... oh no don't worry you'll always have it" I say quickly when I see her face fall and her eyes gleam with the fear that i'd no longer keep her boy safe."I want to talk further so we can work out something that's best for the both of you and l'd like to know what my dad had done for you both up until this point" she rolls her eyes, and I can already tell he didn't step up like he should of, outside of keeping men on her to watch over them.The priest took his spot at the front of the congregation just as Vic slid back into his spot next to me. He took my hand in his and kissed my knuckles then we together, along with the little boy whose world is about to change in ways herd never imagined and the women who feared the world of the
The tight black dress almost feel like it's squeezing the life out of me. The fabric feels suffocating and the black vale I insisted on wearing is like a bag over my head, blocking my air in to my lungs with every breath I take in.We stand side by side the church entrance, greeting the hollow, my condolences from the many men in expensive tailored suits and women who are either dressed as if this was a night out on the town or dressed as they should be walking the red carpet of some award show."I'm so sorry for your loss" a man with neatly quaffed black hair and bright honest sad eyes says as he comes to shake mine and Vies hands."Your father was a good friend" he tells me then gives my hand a small pat. "If you ever need anything. and I mean anything. Please call on me" the man drags the word anything out slowly then starts to let my hand go but I grip it tightly around his."What's your name" I ask him."Alexander Wolfe" he tips his head and sides inside as if his steps were so l
While I lay here watching her chest rise and fall slowly as she sleeps, I can't help but wonder if I've lost her. Have I lost the fun loving, jokester of a woman I fell in love with all those years ago. Have I lost the soft woman whose emotion are always hidden in her eyes if you look close enough or can get close enough to see them.She was a savage in that ballroom. She went blank as she cut off limbs and appendages that make even my own hurt. She looked lost but somehow at ease with the whole situation and I fear ill loose her to chaos that is this world if I stand back and let her do it the hard and cold way."I can hear you thinking" she grumbles softy in her sleep filled voice.Slowly she turns her head and opens her eyes to look up at me."Pennie for your thoughts good sir" she says making me chuckle and slide down to lay on my side facing her."Please don't leave me" I whisper knowing she can hear me by how close we are. "I don't want to lose you, the real you. The you who h
With the man now firmly held in place his mouth is pried open and is tongue pulled out with a pair of tongs I address the room again as I open the metal cutters and bring them to his mouth.“MY NAME HAS BEEN GIVEN TO ME BY MY HUSBAND TO OUT ENDEARMENT AND BECAUSE HE KNOWS THE HELL THAT AWAITS OUR ENEMIES” then I close the cutters affective cutting off the man tongue.Slowly one by one I finish off the remaining four men, making sure the room witnessed the hell f'm capable of and will treat my enemies and those who cross me with.“PLEASE SHOW RESPECT FOR THE HEIR OF THE DE LEONE CRIME FAMILY AND NEW ACTING HEAD OF THE EAT ITAILAN/AMERICAN DE LEONE MAIFA" Vic pauses his speech and comes to my side, taking my hand in his he kisses the back on my now bloody knuckles "DIABLA"Hearing a name he's only called me in the bedroom spoken to a room full of men who are just as cruel if not more then the devil himself and be given the very name of the devi in Italan makes my heart ache for my dad t
