Love Me Harder c116
I stood on the edge of a bridge, staring at the ground which seemed so far down. I shut my eyes as I felt the wind pick up. I breathed in slowly, taking in the moment. I couldn't survive alone. This was my only option. I wanted revenge for Avery but I'd probably only be killed in process. Dying now however, allows me to be with Avery and possibly our mom if she's still alive.If my mom's not dead then I wish her death. If she had died I'd of known I wasn't abandoned, I'd of known at least one person in this fucked up, crazy world loved me; someone besides Avery."Alex, get down" I heard someone say. I looked over to see Ace, walking towards me with a black suit on. I watched him as approached me, his expression, just as dull as always."You're really going to kill yourself before we get revenge for your brother?" He questioned, leaning against the wall of the bridge. I stood still, wondering if he knew; wondering how he knew."I found out from a friend. I heard a kid was murdered ove

I lifted my box onto my new bed. I sighed as I sat on the squeaky mattress that was slightly uncomfortable. However I was grateful to have somewhere to stay, even if it was in a mafia house.I couldn't stop my hands from shaking. I didn't know what was wrong with me. Then I remembered I was going to have to tell Deja about Avery. I couldn't, I couldn't. I can't say those words out loud again. Avery is dead. I'd have to comfort her as she cried over my brother, I'm not prepared for that. I'll be prepared for that. I slipped my phone from out of my pocket and blocked Deja's number. I didn't want to know anyone who knew Avery; Or anyone who reminded me of him.My heart was racing as I lay back on the bed. I closed my eyes, hoping it would all stop. It'd all be a dream.The next thing I knew, it was morning. I sat up and glanced around, forgetting everything just for a moment. The memories were so heavy. They played on my mind constantly. Mainly seeing Avery's body, touching him and real

I grabbed the top of his shirt, and pulled him towards me."Tell me where your fucking boss is!" I demanded, holding the knife to his throat as he scrambled desperately to be released."I promise, I don't know where he is. You're asking the wrong man. I just work for him, nothing more nothing less" He pleaded for me to believe him. His eyes however, his eyes gave away his secrets."I don't believe you" I whispered, lightly running the edge of the blade along his neck."I swear, I'd tell you if I knew" He spoke with desperation. Then his phone began to ring suddenly. He glanced down and the fear was so noticeable, I could smell it. I dropped my grip on his shirt and picked up his phone as I stood up."If you open your mouth, I'll kill you, no hesitation" I warned him, moving the blade to his chest."Hey boss" I mumbled as I answered the phone."We need you down in A3 immediately, apparently there's been an attack. Come asap" he spoke before hanging up the phone.I grinned with satisfa

We hid in a room as we heard them talk and scramble to find the intruders."It feels like we're hiding from the intruders but we are the intruders" Dante laughed quietly, as we all lay low."Who exactly are we looking for again?" Ace asked, glancing over at me. I pulled out my phone and showed him a photo of Leonardo."This ugly motherfucker" I grumbled, rolling my eyes. Ace just grinned evilly in response.Someone knocked heavily on the door."Jason, you alright in there, open the door?" The person behind the door spoke. Their voice was quiet yet had a worried tone, I knew the guy behind the door wasn't going to leave unless he got an answer."Yeah, all good" Dante replied casually, giving a short simple answer. Ace and I almost died on the spot, our hands covered each other's mouths to stop us from shouting at Dante. How stupid can one person be?"Alright, we have an intruder on the premises, so keep an ear out and if you hear anything, make sure to radio" The guy replied as we hear

Months had gone by and we hadn't gotten another opportunity with Leonardo. After the incident in A3, he's definitely been a lot more careful.I had been with Ace's mafia for over a year now. We strayed from capturing Leonardo for awhile, something bigger came up in Ace's mafia that required our attention.Ace and I had grown very close. I would call him my best friend now. However he was complicated man. I don't know if he'd say the same about me, I could just be a pawn in his bigger game but he's my best friend that's for sure. Although recently he started confiding in me about his father. I've still to meet his father even though I live in the same house. Kai is rarely home."My father is insisting on marriage. He wants my heir as soon as possible, he's probably planning on murdering me and raising my heir to his beliefs, obviously because I wasn't so easily manipulated" Ace remarked as he sat on the edge of my bed. I was just sitting on my laptop, humming every couple of seconds so

"We've made no progress Ace!" I slammed my hand on the table in his office."He knows we're fucking looking, obviously it's going to be harder to find him than before Alex!" Ace stated, standing up from his chair. He approached me, getting in my face."Don't think you can ever speak to me like that either. I'll drop this whole case in a second because all of this is for you" He yelled, throwing his phone across the room.He was furious but so was I."We've had opportunities but you've been too busy with this arranged marriage" I shouted back, I wasn't backing down this time. We had slowed down; we were 10 steps behind.Ace turned 18 a few weeks ago. He was preparing for his marriage but it was interrupting our business. I knew this would happen but I would of never expected how angry I'd be. I was murdering innocent people to reach Leonardo. I was murdering people who knew information, even if it wasn't by choice. I couldn't leave a trace."I don't have a fucking choice Ice, you're m

"Why didn't you- why didn't you call me for the funeral?" She questioned, wiping away her tears as seemed to sink into the couch. I stared at the wall, why didn't I call her?."Do you want the truth?" I asked, swallowing back my grief. I knew telling her the truth would hurt her."Of course" She replied, her voice still breaking from crying moments ago."I hadn't spoken to you in months, I just didn't think you cared enough anymore. I also didn't want to drag you into our mess. I couldn't just ring you up and say Avery had died. I couldn't make you just stop your life for us" I spoke as my eyes welled up with tears."I would've thought Alex, I would've," Deja said softly as she rubbed my back soothingly."I'm too far gone" I whispered, before glancing over at her."I'll always be here, no matter how far you go" she spoke reassuringly."Where are you living Alex?" She asked curiously, wiping the tear from my face with her finger."I live with a work colleague" I stated; I knew it was v

We stood at the entrance to the nightclub.I didn't know many people that attended but I had been cut off from the world a long time ago. I didn't even have a phone. No way to contact people for a long time unless it was face to face. Ace and Dante seemed to know everyone here, greeting different people.I attempted to enter but the bouncer shoved me back."What the fuck?" I grumbled, staring at the bouncer who not only towered over me but was pure muscle."I don't know you, you're not coming in" he grunted, shaking his head, keep his palm flat against my chest."You- He's with me" Ace interrupted suddenly, standing in-front of me. He also towered over me. I was tall, 6'0 exact. But Ace was 6'3 and had a big build."My bad" The bouncer uttered, letting us through; He almost looked scared of Ace. I wondered how much power this man truly had. I feel as though everyone would be curiousWe entered the club, immediately walking up a set of red carpet stairs. We slipped through a draped cl

Ace rose from his office chair for the first time in days, and put on his iconic black suit. I've never witnessed a man wear a suit so much.He did his hair and buttoned up his shirt.I stood in-front of him."What are you doing?" I asked, acting like he was crazy."What do you mean, 'what am I doing?'" He widened his eyes at me."Why are you getting all dressed up?" I asked, pretending it was obvious."Because I want to look good," he responded blankly, blinking a few times. He was so clueless, it hurt to watch."Are you joking? Do you not know women at all?" I questioned him, starting to unbutton the top of his shirt. I ruffled his hair and his heartbroken appearance was falling back into place. Ace stared at me, his expression was emotionless. I couldn't help but laugh at him because I knew he was annoyed that undid everything he had done."Tell me you're joking, I'm not going to see her like this." Ace threw a tantrum."Ace, I'm telling you, she'll see it all over your face, that

What the fuck had happened?I hadn't been asleep for that long, had I?Where's Sofia?Where's Ace?Those questions kept playing in my mind, like a record player on repeat, as I drove Dante to the hospital. He was clutching his arm, which was bending the wrong way. I was worried; for him, for us, for everyone. There were cracks in our friendships and they were beginning to show."I can't believe he did this," Dante spat, clearly attempting to distract himself from his arm."What the fuck happened?" I snapped suddenly, which seemed out of the blue for Dante but I still hadn't been told anything about what had happened. I was still in the dark and he wasn't shedding any light on the situation."I was just in the living room, until I heard Sofia and Ace arguing from the kitchen. I hadn't really ever heard them argue before so I stood up from the couch, and all of a sudden, Sofia storms through the living room, not even looking at me. She heads for the hallway and leaves.The girl just lef

I was in my room with Dante, watching a movie. He had expressed that he was beginning to dislike Sofia because she was taking up so much of Ace's attention. More like she wasn't giving Dante any. I blocked out his rambling by focusing on the tv. "Are you even listening?" Dante sneered. "Yea, yea, we don't like Sofia, I get it," I mumbled, stuffing more popcorn into my mouth. "You don't understand." He sighed. "I do," I said, my attention turning back to the tv as a really intense moment happened in the movie. I could hear his voice in the back of my mind, but I wasn't concerned. Dante wouldn't hurt a fly and he certainly wouldn't hurt Sofia. Plus I'm sure Ace would murder him if he tried. I hadn't spoken to Sofia since the day I found her in my room. I hadn't saw her and I didn't know if it would be awkward. I kind of disliked her but it wasn't hatred anymore. I had given up on hating the girl for no reason; but just as I let my vendetta go, Dante begins his. This girl couldn't ca

"What pitstop?", Dante asked, unbuttoning his suit jacket and taking it off. "It's just a quick one", I reassured him. We climbed into the Porsche and drove away from the murder scene, knowing we'd never have to face the consequences of our actions. It was strange; being able to murder someone and not end up in prison. Even if police came knocking on Ace's door, he'd either pay them off or they'd go missing. Ace made his message loud and clear to the government. If they didn't let Ace go about his business, there would be war, and he would win. "Do you ever think about the things we do?" Dante muttered, as if he was thinking out loud. "Sometimes." I replied quickly, watching the trees go by through the window. "Do you think we're bad people, do you think karma exists?", he questioned, his concentration on the road yet his mind was somewhere else entirely. "No, i think we're just morally fucked." I answered, glancing over at him. "Yea, definitely fucked alright. I doubt any of u

"I'm not here to fight you Alex, as much as I'd like to. I've brought you here, to tell you I need Leonardo back. After all he is your brother. Well....half brother" he stated, and I swear I could've been sick. He didn't look anything like me and that's when it hit me. Yes, he didn't look anything like me, but he looked like Avery. The same dark hair and eyes. They couldn't have been brothers. Leonardo couldn't have been more of his brother than me.It couldn't of been possible. He was only his apprentice. Surely he wouldn't leave his son..... oh my god.I was so confused. Leonardo didn't have the same second name as Avery and I; then I felt like someone had stabbed me in the chest, I couldn't breathe. Anderson was my mothers surname. Not my fathers. I never knew it wasn't his, but the look on her face said everything. I never got the name Accardi because he didn't want us to be associated with him. I had lived my whole life never knowing my fathers name. I was going to be violently s

We walked through the empty apartments, choosing to take the stairs over the sketchy elevator. I'd rather not get stuck and die in an old elevator. There was so many flights of stairs and Dante was already sweating by the second one. The paint on the walls had peeled so it was a patchy mess. The stairs themselves were dirty, as if a cleaner had not been here in months. I didn't dare to touch the handrails.As we trudged our way up the stairs, a man who was clearly a drug addict passed by us, throwing us a glare. Dante took it to heart."Why did he look at us like that? I'm offended." He muttered, slightly out of breath."Dante only people that struggle live here, and I'm sorry but we don't struggle anymore because of Ace, you came here in a suit for godsake!" I rambled, which only made Dante more defensive."What's wrong with my suit? I like my suit, thank you very fucking much!" He argued, rolling his eyes like a child."I like the fucking suit Dante, but I'm just saying, these peopl

I had been busy the last few days with mafia related business, so I hadn't been home much; but I was today."Why do you eat so fucking loud?" Ace grumbled to Dante who was eating my cookies in his office. He was slouched in the chair and looked miserable for some reason."What is your problem, bitch?" Dante asked, spewing cookie crumbs everywhere. The palm of my hand slapped my forehead. These two were idiots, I'm living with idiots."Would the both of you just shut up?" I hissed."Fuck you Ice," Dante sneered."Fuck you Dante," I spat, scowling at him."Yeah, fuck you Dante." Ace glared at him."I'm leaving, fuck this," Dante snapped, suddenly becoming angry. I didn't think he was joking, but Ace carried on with the joke."You're a pussy." Ace rolled his eyes."I'm a pussy?" Dante sneered, turning back around and walking towards Ace."You heard me," Ace said, with a big smirk across his face."I'm the fucking pussy," Dante shouted, sounding as if he was in disbelief. "Says the one wh

I hadn't left my room in days, Dante had tried to bribe me out with food but little did he know, I'd rather not eat anyway.I had fallen deep into depression, deeper than I had ever gone before. Breathing was difficult. I stared at the blank wall, trying to process my thoughts. I had nothing left anymore, no revenge, no purpose.Until I heard a knock at my door."Ice, you might want to see this!" I heard Dante say urgently, he was behind the door."I don't" I rejected his proposal."Is this you?" He asked, and it caught my attention. What was he talking about?I climbed to my feet with a groan and unlocked my door, opening it to reveal Dante. He held a golden locket in his hand, which dangled gently."It's a locket?" I rolled my eyes about to shut my door again."No look," he pleaded before I turned back to him.I watched as his chunky finger pressed the smallest button on the side of the locket. It opened to reveal a picture of Avery and I as kids. My eyes widened with disbelief as I
Love Me Harder c130
My fist pounded against Ace's door as I stood outside furious."Ace, open the fucking door!" I yelled, Dante still sitting in the car from shock.I saw a silhouette of a figure approaching the door and unlocking it. I swung the door open and it revealed Ace."What the fuck were you thinking?" I shouted, waving my arms in the air with panic. "You could've gotten yourself killed"."That would've been so tragic" Ace smirked, as we made our way down his hallway towards his kitchen."I'm being fucking serious, you could've gotten yourself killed. Look at Dante, I had to drag him from the ball, he's so traumatised. I had to kill some innocent girl and you get to walk away?", my face becoming twisted with disgust. "How is that fair?"."None of it is fair Ice, you fucking idiot, I'm the mafia boss so I decided what I can or can't do. Keep yelling at me, it won't change the outcome!" He sneered back, his pride so unbelievably high."You ruined yourself, do you realise that?" I spat, "ruined".
