NEW GODFATHER

Chapter 3 : NEW GODFATHER 

____

ZAKI D' POV

Year 1973 the past. 

"What now?" 

I asked myself as I looked out the window of this plane I was piloting now. Everday is so boring even tho I'm now 25 years old and for 25 years I haven't done anything in my life, I'm full of resentment and I'm full of regrets, guilt, pain this heartache of mine along time ago since then because of love life.

And you know right now? This private plane got high jacked but me as a captain, I'm just calm even though the plane's propeller is broken, we're going to crash. Maybe this is the right time to d*e? I have nothing to do with my life. Alright this private plane has a passengers who are rich and I am a pilot who is also on the verge of death no choice because I agreed to be the pilot of Mr. Mustacho, a close friend of mine here in Italy.

"Just keep driving the plane Captain." He said with a smirked. 

I don't know what's going on but I trusted them because I had no choice then. Then bang! I heard several gunshots, at that time I was being collared by him and made to stand up. Now I'm the hostage.

"Both of you will d*e today Regu." He said with a glared at the same time he pointed a gun at me and I can see their anger towards each other, they are brothers after all.

"Free him Arcane he's out of here! " Said Mr. Mustacho who was Regu, I could see him writhing in pain, he was hit and it seemed like he was about to lose his life. I also didn't want to die doing nothing, I elbowed Arcane and we've gun fight. It happened quickly as the plane is about to crash. Arcane dropped the gun and we started fighting.

"You s*n of a b*tch!"

He shouted and punched me, I returned the punch even tho I'm feeling dizzy right now and I could have passed out but no.

I burst my angers towards him right now, also Regu is now lying on the floor. I went to punch Arcane and he got away, he kicked me and at the same time he knocked me down and choked me.

"I-I d-don't know what's going on but  his your brother A-arcane! I thought you're a good person." I said that I couldn't breathe anymore, I turned to the gun and tried to reach for it.

"I'm truly an evil person, I can survive here and I can get what I have wanted along time ago, now that I have k*lled my brother. "He said and turned to Regu. 

"Y-you're done?" I replied and shot him in the chest. When I shot him, he passed out and immediately approached Regu.

"D*mwit, there's no time for this, the plane is about to crash Regu!" I looked at his pulse and of course Regu was still breathing. He whispered to me some important things but I couldn't hear much.

"Shot him again in the head." He said in my ears and he gave me a pen. I don't know what's the point of this? I quickly took the gun and shot Arcane again, maybe he's already dead.

"Done Mr Mustacho let's get out of here." I replied and at that time he's dead. D*mwit! There's no choice that time I escaped by myself.

FF

"I'm just an ordinary person but what the f*ck is this?!" I said.

Regu, is freaking rich?! This is a Trillions of money or maybe more! I'm from a wealthy family but what the f*ck is this?! I almost died but now just because of a pen I will hold a lot of money and also a Mafia Family.

" Yes, that's right Zaki D' you will replace Regu as Godfather in our family." Said the man in front of me calmly and he knows everything that Regu left before he died in his Last Will.

"Btw, I'm Keng Louiviz the Consigliere 

of this family, no worries I'll guide you." He added.

This is interesting at the same time I have trust issues. I don't trust myself and them, but for Regu, a close friend, maybe this is what he told me when he was dying.

He entrusted me with this and I will accept my fate.

" Okay Keng, Right? I will manage this family for Regu my friend." I promised and signed the contract in front of me using the pen that Regu gave me. Keng is the witness of this and the members of the family, maybe I can trust him too one day and all of them.

"Let's welcome our new Godfather of this family, Don Zaki D'." He said at that day we're all toasted for the success and the rebirth of the Regu's family. 

I can continue what Regu started and I still need to be a wise person and also let's trust nobody, this time.

At that time, Keng gave me time to wander around Regu's mansion. That's up to me but my only mission here is to continue what Regu started.

"Don Zaki D' there is an invitation from a friend of Regu and then you should follow me first." Said Keng. 

I immediately followed him, what are we going to talk about and where is he going to take me?

We walked and we entered a room under the stairs, it was simple and this way was big. The walls and floor are all made of gold, I can't believe it's so shiny it's even more elegant than our mansion. We walked for a few minutes and we reached the end where there was only one door.

We entered here and a large office opened to me D*mn! It even overpowered the freaking office of the White house of the USA.

"Now we are here in your office Don Zaki D' besides, I would like you to change your name and also with the members of Costa Nostra you have no problem with them, they also know your words, we can speak Tagalog." He said

And he made me sit in my office chair. I sat down and thought about what he said, what could be changed.

"What's the point of changing the name Keng?" There was no emotion as I said those words at all and at the same time, he laid down the invitation he brought to my table.

"For your protection Don Zaki D'." He said. 

I nodded. I agreed it would be better to change my name.

"Morfeo." I Shortly said to him. 

He agreed immediately and walked out of my office. Now that I'm Morfeo the Godfather of this family, will I pretend to be someone else? Suddenly, I turned my gaze back to the invitation.

"A mask party for all billionaires and millionaires hmm... " I said, I think this is the beginning for me being a Mafia. This is so easy for me, my life has meaning now.

Now I also know why the Mustacho brothers fought because of their family's wealth or maybe it's just Ruge wealth. But who knows? Both brothers died at the same time and my life was mine in that event, now I become the Godfather in such a quick event.

 It's ten o'clock and the party of a billionaire man Asher Cal'Burondi. I'm now ready to face my destiny being a Mafia. 

We're heading to the party of Cal'Burondi, I'm reading a limousine and I can see the building where the party will be held. For a couple of minutes we are here. I see that there are many guests inside. I immediately got down and calmly walked inside. 

"Don't be nervous Don Morfeo just go along."

Keng said to me as he patted me and mingled with the people. I have my own ways and I won't be in trouble and I've been to parties like this. Somehow it's just a millionaires party now this party is too big for me but I can manage. 

I got my drinks from the waiter then sipped it at the same time Arcane's staff caught my attention. They're here too maybe they have a new Godfather in their family, who is it? But now I'll enjoy this party, don't worry about it and come to my colleagues.

"There he is Don Morfeo." He said happily and I immediately sat down, I don't know who the others are, maybe they belong to another group. 

"Who are they Hideo?" I whispered to him and before he answered my question, he started drinking wine. His Hideo Yuma Kubo the Capo regime of the family. 

"That guy is a friend of Regu a millionaire business man, his name is Clark Persidiz." He said pointing to the man next to Augustin the soldier of the family and the other members.

 "Then that guy next to Gareth is a billionaire named Zachary Ofrano also a friend of Regu." He added I nodded in response Okay, now I know who they are. It's just me now but I can't trust them even if it's Hideo.

 I can't see their faces because of the mask and also Clark is so familiar to me. My memory right now is abnormal, somedays my memories from the past life faded and still I can recognize a person just by looking in their eyes and their voice. I can recognize even if we haven't seen each other for a long time as long as we have something in common and are close to me. 

I suddenly woke up to the reality when I heard Asher speak in front of many people. 

"Thank you everyone for coming to my party, I want you to know that I am getting married." He said okay? That's it? This party is for his upcoming weeding. D*mwit. 

Hmm somehow I'm curious for what's going on because I noticed Keng is missing.

 "And also I would like to thank Clark my beloved friend of mine and maybe someday they will be with the woman he wants and he will marry next, so exciting." 

He added at the same time as a long speech. Now maybe this is a mission I stood up and started walking around this party. Observing them to not look suspicious also the theme of this party is too boring who did this and why is it like a fairytale. 

The music is now playing and other guests at Asher's party are dancing at the same time. What a good timing I'll dance to a women to cover up my suspicious action.

"May I?" Thrifty response to a woman older than me.

 "You are very lucky that the young man will dance with you, it's a good thing that your husband is dead." One of her companions said and he laughed and extended her palm to me.

 "Hmmp! It's only once so why would I say no?"

With a little laughter of her cheeks and I danced it. This is better for me to find information and also to find Keng. Along with every dance move, I look at anyone here at the party. 

"Focus, son, look into my eyes and not others" said the woman I danced with, suddenly she changed the dance that I didn't even realize, I immediately followed the woman's response, I danced it and looked into her eyes. 

"Sorry for that my lady I lost focus too much." I replied.

"That's okay."

Her thrifty response to me and while turned around her and continued to dance. I stopped at that time as if I was deaf to what I heard at the speed of the events.

 "Aelin." I whispered. 

At that time we're both stopped from dancing our eyes met again and my heart started beating, because it's beating for her.

 He suddenly turned his back on me and walked away. I can't feel my legs. I can't move in this situation. I love her but I can't chase her right now because I still see in myself the old me, the one that made her cry and made her heart ached.

 "Don Morfeo." Keng said and pulled me to the corner. 

"I've been looking for you for a while, but you suddenly disappeared from my sight." He added That there was a surprise on his face because of my sudden silence in that situation. It made me tongue tide. 

"You okay Don Morfeo?" He handed me a glass of wine and I sipped it.

 "Yes, I am." I will respond sparingly.

"You looked like you saw something hmm... a ghost maybe?" He added with a little laugh of him.

"Where did you go Keng?" I replied. 

He took a deep breath and suddenly became serious while sipping his wine. 

"Looking for information is a good opportunity because this is Asher's party." He said.

 "That's great, I'm right, that's also what I did." I replied.

 "You're sound like an old man now, Don Morfeo." He smirked and looked at me. Maybe it's because of what happened and I need to move like this to be more alert. And Keng is 6 years older than me except for Ruge who is 11 years old. 

"What information that you've got?" I asked. 

"Let's talk about it when we're at the mansion Don Morfeo." He replied I nodded and looked at the people here at this party. 

Why are you here Aelin? I thought you're now in Switzerland. I don't think fate is really making a way for us to be close again. Is this the reason why I didn't have time to meet Lucifer or maybe satan in hell?
