Elena was seated on her bed, staring at her hands like she literally had blood on them. Maybe figuratively, she did. She had not been this scared in a long time, she couldn’t believe that she had actually shot someone todayThis was her first time shooting anyone ever since she was born, and the ridiculous part of it was that she actually did it on her own decision. Leo had failed several times at getting her to shoot someone, and today she did it all on her own decision.The sound of the gunshot was still echoing in her ear and her hands were still shaking. She had been quiet since they both ran off from that woodland. She was disturbed by the whole thing and couldn’t even get up to do anything.What bothered her the most was the possibility of Marco dying. Yes, that would solve her problem but then she would have blood on her hands, she would have killed a policeman, she had committed and unlike the others that they were already after
“Alright Mr. Vincenzo, you have been patched up but you still need rest. You can leave if you want but my medical advice is that you stay here and let our nurses keep an eye on your progress, luckily the bullet didn’t damage anything, it is just a flesh wound but you still need time to heal. I believe you would be cleared to get back on the field in a week's time or so,” the Doctor announced.Captain Marco faked a smile immediately. “Alright Doctor, I think I will stay for the night, and then I will leave tomorrow,” he said and touched his bandaged shoulder“Alright then, I will see you tomorrow, Captain, take care.” The Doctor concluded with a smile before leaving.Captain Marco sighed and sat up on the hospital bed, he hated taken orders even as an officer of the law, maybe that was why his general sent him down to this city because honestly, this was like a demotion for him, he only saw it as a chance to save his city from this plagu
Elena held the gun and pointed it at the shooting target; it was made of carbon paper in the shape of a human with the center otherwise known as Bull’s-eye located at both the chest and forehead. She was at the practice room which was a large hall on the roof.Elena aimed for the Bull’s-eye on the chest, she was trying to stay concentrated but her aim was wavering and unstable. She had already fired the first two shots and missed the entire target, luckily it was a practice bullet so it didn’t do much damage to the wall where it hit. Shooting seemed to be even much harder than it looked. She must have been lucky with her shot yesterday because if she flawed the way she was doing now, it would have been Leo’s dead body on that floor.The gun she was using for practice however didn’t have an aiming device, so it made things more difficult for her. She didn’t even know why she was doing this but she just found herself doing it.Well maybe
Leonardo stood in the empty hall and watched Elena as she ran off, he wanted to call her but he relented. What would he even tell her if he called her? He had nothing to say to her, not an explanation, not a question, not a comment.Well, he just couldn’t understand his feelings these days, especially around her, he always acted out of impulse. He couldn’t control his feelings around her, wait… since when did he even start to have feelings?Until she came along, he believed that his actions were only guided by his logic, but now he wasn’t so sure anymore. He didn’t have a reason for being intimate with her but he was doing it, he was having affection for her, he just didn’t want to accept it.He was Leonardo Salvatore and he wasn’t allowed to have feelings. Love he believed was a sickness, a weakness, once that could lead to a person’s downfall. They say the most dangerous people are those who have nothing to lose. That person used to b
Elena ran into her room and locked the door; she sat at the feet of her large bed and cuddled her legs feeling like tearing up. Elena was worried and confused, she didn’t understand why she was suddenly being so easy to go with Leonardo.Didn’t she despise him anymore? But he was keeping her here against her wish? He made her do horrible things? Well, those thoughts were just her trying to cover up her real worries. Yes, she once hated Leo but not anymore and she has known that for a while now.The main issue at hand was not about her hating him, it was about her loving him. She was developing feelings for him against her better judgment. He was the devil’s protégé and yet she was falling for him. That man had so much blood on his hands and yet she was having complicated feelings for him.What did she even really want? Were these feelings real to begin with or was it just her being silly? She didn’t understand why she had sex with him t
“Come on Anna, you need to snap out of this,” Jane growled and chased after her best friend. “You can't sit here all day at your computer screen while stuffing food in your mouth, you don’t even know what you are looking for,” she added.“Well, what am I supposed to do? Everyone has deserted me,” Anna groaned and took a seat at her working desk, back to glaring at her overheating laptop. Damn, the system unit had been put through a lot of stress in search of nothing exactly to be precise.“Everyone hasn’t deserted you, I am still here, remember?” Jane asked.“Yeah, you of course, not like you have a choice,” Anna joked and began to key in on her keyboard, she had been trying to look for any loopholes or dirty business in the Salvatore family business that she could use against them.She was searching through every database that she could find, stopping at nothing to get what she wanted. She had even hacked her way into the
There is a knock on the door and Elena growls. “Five more minutes!!” she screamed at the person.“Ma’am, the boss is waiting for you downstairs, if you don’t come down now, I will be in trouble,” the lady pleaded.“Arrgh!!” Elena growled with a clenched fist. She didn’t like to be hurried, and she felt so uncomfortable in these girly clothes that Leonardo was making her wear them.He had gotten her a strapless pink gown, a quite skimpy one that exposed her average boobs. Well, she wasn’t just a tomboy in character, she also had average or maybe smaller boobs with a quite portable butt- not like any butt isn’t portable but that is to say that she was neither big or flat behind, she was just her!! A good definition of averageElena quickly powdered her face and double glossed her lips. She didn’t even know why she was trying to look stunning, who was she trying to impress? Was it Leo? Why?She groaned
“So tell me, Miss Elena… how would you like to dance with me today?” Leo asked with a smile. They were still in the car, but he was already proposing… ridiculously impatient!!“Stop trying to be sweet, Mr. Salvatore, it doesn’t suit you,” she said with a smirk on her face and then she looked away from him.Leo smiled, he loved that she was playing hard to get, he didn’t want her to give in easily, because that takes all the fun out of it. But since when did he start to enjoy these arguments with her, his feelings for her was growing stronger every day but he kept denying itThe both of them hadn’t discussed anything in regards to their feelings, things always looked awkward whenever the discussion was heading that way. It is funny that two adults were unable to open up to each other about their feelings and they would rather beat around the bush.Well, Elena had been patiently waiting for him to say it while wishing that h
It has been five long years since the arrest of the mighty Leonardo Salvatore; well, not exactly an arrest since he turned himself in. but well, thanks to his numerous connections in and out of the country, he was able to get just a short sentence of five years in prison, unlike most others in the Mafia who had an eternity to rot in jail.The guard opened the gate and Leo stepped out with a smirk on his face, he took a deep breathe in and let it out. It felt good to be out here after five long years, to be in a different outfit than the same orange jumpsuit.Well, he was going to miss some of the friends he made there, as well as the enemies he made. Not like he was going to stay in prison for five years without breaking someone’s head or knocking out their teethHe was still Leonardo Salvatore after all, the Devil’s very own incarnate, Assassino Del Fratello. He was still the son of Don Anthony, the blood related bastard son, the one d
“Yesss!!!” Anna screams in excitement and jumps on the bed.“Babe, what happened?” Rocco asked as he rushed into the room immediately.“It’s gone Viral; my paper on Mafia society has gone viral!! Over a thousand copies have been distributed already and my blog has gotten over a million engagements worldwide and it has only been forty-eight hours since publication,” she exclaimed.“Wow, that is good news babe, I am proud of you,” Rocco uttered with a smile on his face. Well, he didn’t give off as much energy as Anna was giving right now, but he was glad. Now he could have her undivided attention as she was done with her obsession to expose the Mafia.“I know, I am so happy. All of my hard work has paid off, not only has the truth about the Mafia and its members being put out in public, all of the bad guys are now being hunted for prosecution regardless of their ranks and I have become very popular for being the tool through
“You sent for me?” Anna queried as she walked into the Captain’s office. She saw Elena seated there with Captain Marco, they paused whatever they were discussing before her arrival.“Oh, yes Ann… you are here.” Marco replied with a smile on his face. Well, he was back to being captain temporarily, he had just a few days to prove his innocence and Leo was going to help him do that.Elena had been cleared of all charges as well. Leonardo had immediately admitted to abducting her and making her commit the crimes she committed, he had taken the blame for the whole thing thereby acquitting her of all charges.“Why isn’t she in chains?” Anna queried while staring at Elena with hateful eyes.“Shut up, do you want your story or not?” Elena retorted with a mean face.“Alright, calm down ladies… Anna, you said you needed a confession from a member of the Mafia gang for the credibility of your story on the Sicilian Mafi
Elena was starting to breath heavily in fear while saying her last prayers, this was it, she was going to die and nothing would be found of her remains. The young lady had driven an armored car from Leo’s secret arsenal to the Scorpione Mafia house as a distraction for the men.They had requested that she reveal her identity by coming down from the vehicle but she wasn’t ready to do that, well she was going to die the moment she stepped out of here. Leo was no longer in charge and so she wouldn’t be welcome here.As originally planned, she had refused to come down from the vehicle or reveal her face; she just kept her hands on the fire gears, ready to shoot if it came to that. Well, she didn’t expect this to turn out this way, she knew that she was supposed to keep the entire army busy till the boys got rid of their leaders and then they will come for her, but now they had gotten tired of waiting and were about to blow an explosive into the armo
Luca walked into the empty hall and sighed, was he early? He wasn’t supposed to be the only one here. It seemed like he spoke too soon because a few seconds later, Antonio, Lorenzo and Giovanni walked into the hall as well.“Finally, you guys are here, what is the news?” Luca asked.“What do you mean? You are the one who called us here, so aren’t you supposed to be telling us that?” Lorenzo queried.Luca wore a puzzled expression on his face immediately. “Um, I think there has been a misunderstanding, I got a message asking me to come here to this hall and that I should come alone, the message was from an anonymous person stating that there was news about Scarface, I didn’t call anyone here,” he said in denial.Lorenzo looked at the other two men in confusion and then he turned back to Luca. “Wait, something isn’t right. The three of us got a message that you found out something about Luca, but you needed us to hear i
“What do you mean you can’t find the Metal Storm gun?” Lorenzo asked as he stepped out in his Pajamas. He had been woken up this early with such bad news.“We searched the entire armor room, the gun isn’t there. Someone must have taken it out, but who could it be?” Luca replied with a worried look on his face.“I personally loaded the guns that Leonardo had left with yesterday, the metal storm gun wasn’t with him. We need to find that gun before it gets into the wrong hands,” Lorenzo emphasized.“By wrong hands, you mean Scarface, right?” Luca asked; the fear on his face was very visible, he knew well to be terrified of Scarface.“Yes, if he has that weapon and finds out about our betrayal, he would not hesitate to use it on us, he will massacre our men with that beast of a gun. Mateo has gone radio silent since yesterday and Leo hasn’t contacted us either. It is obvious that something had gone wrong with the plan, if
Elena wakes up in the morning and groans, it had been a very difficult night for her especially because they had to sleep in the warehouse overnight and next to a dead body. Leo had made her a bed from clothes and sacks found, and then he had protected her from the cold with his fluffy jacket; good thing he brought it along.She remembered he had said something about staying up all night to keep watch and Marco also wouldn’t sleep while Leo was awake. Well, he still didn’t trust the Mafia Boss to not kill him. Elena wondered if they had gotten any sleep over the night, she looked around and noticed that they were not in the warehouse.She quickly jerked up and got the jacket wrapped around her body, then she headed for the big door, hoping that they had not killed themselves yet. Well, they had promised not to, but that didn’t mean that they couldn’t, especially with the way Leo stares at Marco whenever he gets any close to her.Elena w
Leo walks into the warehouse where Elena and Marco were discussing, he felt jealousy rush through his veins at the sight of that but he chose to remain focused on his priorities, Elena might not have said yes to his proposal but she didn’t exactly say no either, which means she was into him as well and he would have her all to himself later.Marco didn’t even flinch an eyelid at the sight of the Mafia Boss, not minding the gun he had in his hand. For reasons best known to him, he was almost certain that Leo wouldn’t shoot him, maybe because Elena was there with them. Seeing how he was bonding with Elena, the Mafia Boss would know better than to kill him in her presence.“Listen here Captain, I am sure you have heard,” Leo started arrogantly.“That your guys don’t want you anymore? Yes, I have… I am sorry; do you need a shoulder to cry on? Well, I don’t have one,” Marco teased. Funny how he could have fun with someone who wouldn’t hesita
“Are you alright?” Leo asked immediately and cupped her cheek with one palm. “Did he hurt you?” he added and looked at Marco with hateful eyes; he still had the gun in his other hand and so the cop needed to be careful or he would use it.She nodded. “Yes, I am fine, but you don’t look good. Your hand is bleeding,” she half-yelled as she caught sight of it.“Yeah, the motherfucker shot me,” he groaned and looked back at Mateo with disbelief and contempt in his eyes.“Why would he turn on you?” Elena asked with a look of curiosity.“Well, there has been a conspiracy. Lorenzo has overthrown me as Don in my absence, I would rip his throat out and watch him suffer to death,” he spat.“Okay, calm down… I would go and get you a bandage, Marco has some in his car” she said and headed for the door.“Be careful, Elena.” He uttered and she nodded as she ran out.Leo sighed and watched her l
