Max loaded his gun while Alex viewed the perimeter with his pair of binoculars.

"It's all empty… nothing is in view.. those bastards are hiding," he said.

"I think we are outnumbered," he added as bullets continued to impact the car.

"Leave the guards to it, they can handle as much. We should wait in here," Alex said.

"In here!? No way! The car could explode! That is their aim!" I yelled.

" Yeah, we are just gonna stall for time. We need to lure them out!" Alex retorted.

While we were at it, Max slipped out of the car. He used the car as his cover and his gun began talking.

The guards in the other car had disembarked. They all fired sporadically.

Alex was right. Our attackers started drawing out of their hiding. Max had taken a cover and he was tactically taking them down.

"Requesting back up and a heli for evacuation… Dallas Love Airfield… We are under attack," Alex informed our base.

"Roger that!" A voice boomed through and the line went dead.

"Get out!" Max yelled so loud and I c

  • Entangled With The Mafia Boss   A Gift

    I tossed to the other side of the bed as I groaned in exasperation and irritation as a result of the slow steady knocks I got from the door of my room. I didn’t get enough sleep last night because I had been worried about Jericho, so I felt frustrated due to the disruption of sleep I got.I knew I had to get up even though I didn’t want to. Slowly I sat up from my bed as a yawn made its way out of my lips. The knock persisted and it got me even more disgruntled. “Fucking come inside already” I yelled and the door was opened. A maid walked in. a completely different maid from the ones that came the previous day. With the tray firmly in her hand and fear visible in her_ maybe it had to do with how intently I stared at her_ she spoke. “I brought you…” she tried to speak, but I cut her short. “Just drop it over there” I pointed at a table and she did as instructed. “And I don’t want anything else,” I said because I was certain she was going to ask me that. I stood up from my bed and

  • Entangled With The Mafia Boss   Aldina's Plot

    Leia's POVWe arrived at our destination. It was a smaller castle compared to the one in which I had my wedding. One of the guards held the door open and I stepped out elegantly but with trepidation. Meeting with Jericho’s family had never been a thing of thrill for me. It always didn’t end up well. With the guards behind me, I counted my steps as I walked inside the castle. It was a small party. What I didn’t understand was how many people were for a family gathering. I couldn’t help but think if all of them were part of the family or if they were just guests. I recognized a few family members now. Sir Alfonson himself, Nonnina, Rosa, Pablo, Aldina, and Lin. Speaking of Lin, she walked towards me with a smile on her face. She was dressed in a pink flared dress. It suited her pale skin and I loved the way she spruced up her hair. “Oh my God! Your dress looks gorgeous,” she said gawking at me from up to down. “Thank you, Aldina got it for me…" I was still responding when I saw J

  • Entangled With The Mafia Boss   Humiliated

    Strong hands pulled me up and drew up the gown to cover my chest. My sight could barely focus but I knew those strong hands belonged to a man and going by his strong smell, it was safe to presume that it was Jericho's brother, the one I mistook for Jericho. I could perceive his smell."Thank you," I heard Lin say shakily as she took over. She led me away from the spotlight and I clung to her like she was my lifeline.She walked me out of the castle still holding my gown in place. My guards were waiting to have me but I was out of my mind.The humiliation I felt suddenly turned to disdain. I wasn't going to go with any fucker. I hate this whole thing and I am done.Suddenly, I pushed Lin away. She landed on the ground and groaned painfully but I did not give a damn. They plotted it all together. They humiliated me and made a mockery of me, I thought as I held the gown in place and bursted into full speed.The guards made a move to follow after me but Jericho's brother forbade them."Let

  • Entangled With The Mafia Boss   Leia Is Missing

    Leia's POVThe runway began to disappear as the plane took off and ascended. Finally, I let out a sigh of relief. I was apprehensive while I waited for my flight. I knew that the Bandas do not lack intel. If they had tracked me down, it would have been a bloodbath because I wasn't going to back down.Again, I sighed loudly and tried to relax but I was still tense. My mind went through all that could arise as a result of my escape. My marriage was a seal to a pact between two strong forces. My escape means a breach of contract. Well, I care less about the outcome. All I know is that I can't remain in confinement in a house where I was humiliated and disgraced. When we made our landing in America, it was 3am. I had informed Rya to come pick me up at the international airport."Home, sweet home," I muttered as I sniffed the air."This isn't your home anymore, you should return and settle your fucking ass down," someone whispered behind me. I turned around swiftly and my eyes roamed th

  • Entangled With The Mafia Boss   At Crescent clubhouse

    Jericho's POV For the past few hours, I’d been in the Crescent clubhouse. It was the best clubhouse here in Dallas— the very club I’d met Leia. It was Alex’s idea for us to hang out. He’d probably noticed how bad I was. I was literally losing some brain cells, Alberto, my most trusted henchman, had served me cold! It was a cruel betrayal.Harshly but steadily, I kept drinking directly from the bottle of dark rum. My vision was pure red and my system was on shut down mode. Today, Max broke the ugly news to me that Alberto, my henchman, had been the sneaky rat all this while. The fucker had been working for Herman as a spy while playing a loyal henchman for me. He was the one who’d rang Herman about my visit to America. The reality that I had been fooled and utterly betrayed by the very man I’d esteemed the most was like a death blow to my face. One that I couldn’t withstand. My emotions got the best of me and all I wanted then was to wipe out the fucker’s face from the surface of

  • Entangled With The Mafia Boss   Harman's Hideout

    Without wasting a second, I sprang to my feet and reached for my cell phone. There were a lot of missed calls from Max. Swiping them off, I placed a call across to him and made my way out of the club, Alex followed suit. “Massimo!” Max saluted the moment he picked up. “I’d been calling...”“I already knew, the bastard’s hiddy hole had been spotted. Good job! Send me the address of wherever you are right now, I’ll meet you guys there.” I informed and Max replied with a “sure thing boss.” I hung up and next, we arrived at the spot our suv was parked. I darted into the car like a stag and Alex did the same. “Why didn’t you just give Max the order to lead the men track down fucker. You’ve enough time to deal with him by the time he’s brought down to the trap house.” Alex inquired as I roared the car to a start. “Well, I want to lead the attack myself. I don’t entirely trust those lads and I can’t afford to harman to escape!” I grovelled and set my gaze upfront. I zoomed off at th

  • Entangled With The Mafia Boss   A Misconception

    I stared back at Leia in great shock. All that she did with Herman back in Italy flashed through my head. I grunted loudly as realization dawned on me; Leia was definitely Harman's mistress and one more thing, Herman might not have been the only snitch afterall, my wife is definitely an accomplice. I laughed hysterically as uncontrollable rage surged within me. Slowly, I marched towards Leia.All of a sudden, A bullet went off, it was very loud as if I had been shot. My head spun on impulse. Alex was right behind me. He was pointing a gun at Herman and blood was oozing out of Herman’s leg. I took note of the Jack knife Herman was holding, it was the same knife I had held down to his face. He must have tried to attack me.I pressed on while Leia charged towards me. She staggered around and seemed to be unstable but I cared less about that.My fist went off and I punched her squarely on her face. Blood spilled out of her nose, she lost equilibrium and fell hard on the floor. “Jeri

  • Entangled With The Mafia Boss   Harman's Tourture

    Alex's POVI raced back to the base with Leia tightly secured in my arms. "Step on it!" I yelled at the guy who was by the wheel.Leia's wound was bleeding profusely and she was starting to have difficulties in breathing.Her pupils were dilated and she couldn't focus. She looked like she was lost and she stared wide into space. She was barely conscious of all that was happening around her. There was no doubt that she was drugged.My head reeled with all possibilities as I tried to make a sense of what was happening."Why is Leia in Dallas? Why was she with Harman? Could she have been drugged in a bid to enjoy her fantasy with Harman?" The car came to a screeching halt and I carried Leia out. I took her into the base and the base doctor was already waiting."I will have to run an IV fluid… it's the easiest way to get the drugs out of her system," the doctor said after examination."Do the best," I said and walked out of the room.Few minutes later, Jericho was driven in."Where is Le

  • Entangled With The Mafia Boss   Leia's Abduction II

    Jericho POV, Few minutes has passed since Leia and her nurse maid left for the rest room. I have been technically bouncing on my toes, never had I been this impatient and aggravated all my life. Time was tucking away, yet there was no trace of Leia. My head had literally turned into a standing fan, spinning back and forth for a sign of her but there was no trace. Fed up of the shit, I decided to make a move but just as I made two steps away from my standing position, I felt a hand grab my arm making me twirl back to see it was Alex. My eyes instantly turned to inferno. “What?!” I gritted my teeth, my whole being burning with rage. Alex squirmed his face before sighing and said; “Tell me you aren’t fucking going to meet Leia in the restroom. You’ve to calm down! Give them some privacy, man! It's the ladies not your personal closet.Calm down? Really? Is that a joke or sort?How can I? when I am literally angry with entirely everything right now. Starting with Alfonso; the nerve of

  • Entangled With The Mafia Boss   Leia's Abduction

    Alex POVI have been avoiding Alfonso because I have nothing to say to him. After the search on Tyler's car's number led us no where, we are yet to have a concrete information.We have been checking the footage of cameras just like he had ordered but we are yet to get anything concrete.While I was at it, a summon propped up from Alfonso. It was meant for Jericho, he was summoned to come alongside Leia. Yeah, that is big boss for you, he takes the bull by the horn. I informed Jericho and soon he was down in Alfonso's chambers with his wife. I was also present."Given the fact that you were just informed about Russo's death, I had thought I will receive your visitation but it never come," Alfonso said to Leia as soon as we walked in.Leia said nothing. She bowed in greetings without responding."What can you say about your friend. I mean Tyler," Alfonso went straight to the point and showed Leia a seat.Leia looked surprised and looked questioningly at Jericho."Did you report me to …

  • Entangled With The Mafia Boss   Lucita's intentions

    Lucita POVI am obsessed about Jericho and knew it. Well you wouldn't blame me, he was my first love and my betrothed. When I walked through the shadows of death, he was the only substance that kept me fighting for my life. I am back on my feet and there is no way I can live on without him.Since l'd left the Bandas' mansion, I could not but think about him. Apparently, I might have lost him but I can't lose him for real. We can't remain under the same sky and he would be locked up in another woman's bosom.No! It can never be. The thought alone is infuriating. I will rather have him taken out. Yes, if I can't have him, no one would. Neither Leia nor some other women.At this point I could not help but think that Andro's intervention made me lose Jericho. If I had returned to him earlier, he wouldn't have met that bitch. And when I returned, Jericho couldn't feel my sincerity. I had grown past the naive and gentle lady he knew.Well, I won't cry over spoilt milk. I have lost Jericho

  • Entangled With The Mafia Boss   A Failed Mission

    Alex POVTwo cars rode out of the property right after Leia's car. We followed in close proximity but Leia did not suspect a thing. This made me agree to Alfonso's delusions, Leia has indeed become docile. Well, I am happy that my friend and boss is soon becoming a father but above all I wish for his happiness and his wife's as well.It was hard to gather the men and follow them out without answering to Jericho. He only asked casually and he stopped pestering me after I snubbed him.I decided to go with our men because I did not want any flop. This was sir Alfonso's biddings it has to be done clean and perfect. Moreover I needed to see things for myself.Something did not sit down well with me. It was Sandra's disposition. She was alert and sensitive and there was no doubt that she would have caught on.I expected her to greet us or inform Leia but she didn't. Rather she feigned ignorance and maintained her position right beside Leia.Few of my men waited around the parking lot while

  • Entangled With The Mafia Boss   Assignments

    Alex POVWork was choking me up but I had to do it all alone. Jericho was busy with Leia and the task was not something I could give out to our subordinates.It was the end of the month and I had enough on my plate. Reports had rolled in from every one of our facilities around the world. I had to audit the whole thing and ascertain that each facility is doing well. This task is usually handled by Jericho or me.Jericho has been hanging around Leia since things started to fall apart between them, leaving me to face the heavy workloads.I knew this was going to happen when he kept such big intimation from Leia. Yeah, he did it with a good intention. He did it to protect her but hey, he should have known that Leia isn't a weakling, she won't welcome such an excuse.Thinking about it all aroused my curiosity. I am more curious about the source of the whole malady. Isn't it strange that a man from nowhere was the one who broke the news to Leia? A fucking childhood friend or whatever. I s

This time around I was navigating ways on how to deal with them ruthlessly as soon as I got my hands on them. Fucking hell, I can’t beleive that the investigation on just one woman...One damn woman is suddenly becoming like a wild goose chase. The fact that the men I sent to tail her got killed, still gets me boiling. They were my elite men. Clenching my fist around the shot glass that I was holding, I took another sip from it. Impatience turns to rage as I waited for the fucker Luca to gave arrived already.And In a few hours, which felt like eternity, Luca finally arrived along with the other men. With a smirk, I watched as their cars zoomed in furiously and they all alighted. I nodded sideways toward one of the guards standing at the rare end of the rooftop and he knew what to do. He bowed and in a few minutes time, he led Luca up all the way. “If you don’t h

I wanted to stay away from him as long as I could.Well, I won't blame him but my family that released me back into his hands.The only thing holding me down here is my pregnancy. I had to respect the fact that I wasn't as agile as before. Back in Dallas when I saw blood dripping down my thighs, I was scared to the bones, I thought I had lost my baby. I don't think I will be able to live on if anything happens to my baby. It's the only thing that gives me joy. I am six months gone and I can't wait to see the man in there.I patted my stomach and smiled wearily.My phone beeped and I picked it up, smiling. It was Tyler."Hello Tyler," I said weakly into the phone."For goodness sakes! You scared the hell out of me. Your phone has been out of coverage since the last time we met. I contemplated paying you a visit today if I still can't reach you," he said with his voice lade

Two of our most elite men turned up dead after trying to track down Lucita's location.The team maintained contact with them a few hours before they were caught off. Back up team and search team spurred into action immediately.They located the point where they had the last contact with them. Their dead bodies turned up just within circumference.The team ran different investigations around the location but nothing was unusual and it led nowhere."The backup team should have been on standby, not far from them!"
