POV: Dominic “Boss, we have a problem. Zhang Groups of companies are pulling out their bid to invest in your nightclub. It seems like they have been poached by our rivals and I’m suspecting that it has something to do with the Capo.” Leon told me, his voice sounding urgent and pissed. Zhang Group of Companies is a famous corporation owned by a wealthy Chinese conglomerate. Its chairman, Zhang Zhou is well known for his charities and good deeds in the city. But behind the scenes, he is an international smuggler and Cartel Lord. He is the head of the Chinese Mafia and the head of the Round Table. You see, each country has that one man who is the Cartel Lord, The Mafia lord. The round table is where all Mafia Lords sit to settle disputes and trash out our differences after fighting it out in the streets. My position at the round table is the one thing that Carlos and Raphael are unable to steal from me when they connived and stole my title and territory. “Where is he?” I asked Leon a
POV: Dominic“What are you saying, Dom?Where is Renna?You two are expecting a child?” He asked me, feigning ignorance. I shook my head and scoffed at his sorry attempt to get me to forgive him. If he thinks I would fall for this cheap trick and believe his lies, then he must be more stupid than I thought. Carlos had raped my pregnant fiancee in front of me, forcing me to watch while he does it, and allowed his boys to have their turns with her. “See this?That is your unborn child,” he had told me proudly as he pointed to the blood dripping down her thighs, proof that she had miscarried my child. He slit her neck in front of me, laughing excitedly when I screamed in pain. That moment flashed in my head as Raphael asked of her as if he had no idea what happened to her. I folded my Knuckles, grinding my teeth in rage, trying so hard not to punch him one more time. He must think that I’m dumb, I’m not buying this his amnesia crap. He knows the history Serena shared with Carlos, he kn
POV: Dominic “Why did you do it?How could you hurt me that way, I thought we were friends!I called you brother, Raphael, we fucking ate from the same bowl. What did I ever do to you? I asked him angrily, kicking him in his ribs repeatedly as I kept asking him. “I’m sorry, Dom. I’m truly sorry, I didn’t mean to hurt you, I promise!” he responded with pain, his voice getting weaker.“Yes, you did! You fucking did it to hurt me, you did it on purpose and you ruined our friendship too. Sorry doesn’t cut it your apology doesn’t mean anything to me. I have thought of this moment for years, I’ve imagined putting a bullet through your skull for so long. But killing you will be too easy, Raphael. I will make you suffer and you will beg for death!” I told him fiercely, and that was a promise I intended to keep. I punched him in the face one last time causing his blood to spill all around us. Then I went to my car to pick up my signature stamp that everyone knows about. I was just opening m
POV: Dominic “I don’t know what Kyle did to you, I have no idea how much he owes you, but I can assure you that my sister is not involved in his business. Whatever he told you is a lie, he just wants to get her in trouble with you, he wants to use her for his own freedom. He’s lying, I promise,” she told me about her sister telling me about their sick mother and how she would die if nothing was done about it.“Please let her go, she is innocent. I promise I’ll do everything to keep her away from him.” She told me sadly. I felt moved by her care and love for her sister. But I couldn’t grant her request so easily. There are so many things involved in this issue that she doesn’t know about. “You have no idea what your sister got herself into, do you?Are you aware that Kyle has offered to sell her off in exchange for his freedom?” I asked her, tipping my head to the side with my eyes fixed on her.“That fucking asshole!When next I see him, I fucking punch him in the face!” she exclaim
POV: Dominic “I love Claire, Capo. It’s very difficult for me to give up my fiancee. I would love a little compensation if in going to let her go. I need some extra cash and a little compensation.” He told me the day I met him to offer him the deal. He also requested for my connection and backing to move around some territories that belong to Carlos. I smiled at his bravery to speak before me and make demands from me when he knew that he owed me so much money already. I bought all his debts and yet he doesn’t think it’s enough. I could have just killed him on the spot and no one will dare question me about it. But I simply smirked at him and agreed to all his requests without question. He made her believe that the drugs were collected on her behalf. The bag pack contained drugs worth a million dollars and I offered him half the money and a place to sell it faster to save her mother. That was the best deal ever, he gets a clean slate and she gets the money for her mom’s surgery on t
POV: Dominic “Where is my money, Claire. Did you really think you and your boyfriend could steal from me and get away with it?” I asked her sternly. She corked her brow in question, her face filled with curiosity. “I’m sorry I wasted your time when I asked you to help me out with money to save my mom. I never meant to take your kindness for granted, and I never thought my sister would get the money before me. I was in need of the money at that time, I wasn’t lying to you or trying to trick you, I promise.” She told me firmly.The room is dimly lit, casting shadows across the faces of our faces. My expression is stern and my eyes fixed on Claire as she sits before me with a look of confusion and sadness. For a few seconds I was lost in thought as I stared at her. She looks exhausted, it’s been such a long day and I’m beginning to feel sorry for her. She is too pretty to be going through this and I wish I could stop putting her through so much stress. But I can’t…It’s too late to tu
POV: ClaireMy heart beat faster as led me down the corridor. I watched the movement of his legs as he strode in front of me. He has broad shoulders and perfect body that could make a woman drool from just looking at him. I could imagine how the girls around him manage to stay this close to him and not fall for his looks. He probably has them fighting over him for his attention. I would be surprised if he doesn’t treat them like whores already. With this look, you would never believe that he is as ruthless as they claim he is. “Wait here!” he ordered firmly as we walked in through a door at the end of the hallway. He held the door open for me to go in, I was shocked to see that the room was empty, Kyle wasn’t here. The room looks arranged and neat, I don’t think anyone has slept in here for a while now. “Where the hell is he?Did you kill him already?” I asked him sternly.“If you want him dead, just say the word and I’ll fucking do it. Or better yet, why don’t you do it yourself if
POV: Claire“So, what games are you playing?You actually thought you could get away with stealing from me?Why didn’t you return the goods when you couldn’t get her to move them around town, what stopped you from bringing them back to me the same way I handed them to you?” He asked Kyle again, pushing him to say more things that could annoy me further.I still couldn’t believe that he had a girlfriend that he planned to elope with. That means that he never loved me from the beginning, he was simply using me to get what he wanted. Vee had been right all along, he was never good for me. She always told me that Kyle would our me in a mess that would make me regret getting into a relationship with him.Well, here I am already. And the worst part of it is that I have nothing to give to Dominic in exchange for my life and my freedom. I haven’t even had time to call Vee and tell her what is happening to me. She would be so devastated and worried about me. She wouldn’t even know where to loo
