Love in Thorns, Guns and Shackles Ann's success
“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

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.

Leonardo Salvatore dropped some flowers and stood over the freshly covered grave of his father, with a face devoid of emotions. Not like you can tell if there was any, with those eyes hidden under his black sunglasses, a black hat on his bowed head and his hands tucked into his pant pockets.He was dressed in a black shirt which anyone could tell was properly ironed and lined, black pants which were relatively big, like the tailor had intended to give him enough space literally. On top of all that was a very long gray coat that reached his ankles downwards, at least something that wasn’t black.He had these black shiny shoes that had their heads looking up to the sky like they were seeing something fascinating up there, whatever polish he had made use of, it sure was of good quality.Perhaps someone took a trip back to the 90s, or maybe not; I mean, this is Leonardo Salvatore, son of Anthony Salvatore; the dreaded and feared leader of the Major Sicilian Mafia- the Scorpione family.Yo

Elena walked sluggishly to the dining room, she hated having dinner with the whole family and her reasons for that were justified. No young lady would enjoy dinner with a half-drunk father speaking gibberish and a mother calling her irresponsible.So what if she was twenty-two and she had no job? What if she had no boyfriend or fiancé, thanks to her crazy bitchy attitude? Who said you have to be independent by the age of twenty-two? Who said you are late if you aren’t married at that age? Who for God’s sake sets these standards of living? Since when does life have a manual?She hates it when her drunken gambler of a father curses her and wishes he had a rich son instead of a daughter, she hates it when her mother compares her with other young ladies and tells her that she is cursed. It is even worse when her younger siblings no longer look up to her with respect? They just see her as another useless one in the family.But what annoyed her most was her perverted maternal uncle always m

Elena regained consciousness when someone dropped her roughly on the floor; she groaned and forced her eyes open. Her forehead was hurting badly, she looked around and she couldn’t recognize the environment, her sight was a bit blurry.She thought she was alone until she heard a man’s voice. “Capo, the bitch is awake,” the man uttered.“Your mother is the bitch,” she cursed silently inwards and tried to get up.“Right on time,” she heard that familiar voice utter. She turned around and came to face the man that had abducted her.She looked around and noticed that she was surrounded by almost twenty men. “Where did you bring me?” she queried with a puzzled look on her face.“Oh sweetheart, it doesn’t matter, because you are here to stay,” the man uttered and laughed evilly. He tried to caress her face but she pushed him away and wrinkled her nose.“Oh, the bitch is a tough one,” one of the men yelled and they all burst into laughter.“It is your mother who is a bitch!!” Elena fired bac

Cain Salvatore was thrown at the feet of Leonardo; they were in a dark room and the only light which was coming in from the small window was being shown on the betrayer; it was called the judgment room.The new Mafia boss stood upright in the dark corner with his face devoid of emotions; there were two other men in the room; Lorenzo- the underboss, and Giovanni- the consigliere.“Gray wizard, wake him up,” Leonardo ordered in a cold voice, referring to Lorenzo with his code name- a mafia thing.He was blunt as usual tonight. But behind that poker face, Lorenzo could tell that he was bottling up his emotions, trying to act like a tough baddie, something that the new underboss doubted that he really was.Lorenzo, who was already holding a bottle of cold water, opened it and poured it on the unconscious man’s face. The water was freezing cold so Cain Salvatore was forced to gasp and sit up.The Don of the Lupi family looked around to identify his location and it dawned on him that he was

Elena once again finds herself in the midst of vile men, they had captured her from the previous gang and had forcefully brought her to a new place. She knew what these men were- gangsters, mob, drug dealers, serial killers, thugs and in general, bad men!“Don’t you dare touch me!!” she warned with a finger in the air as one of them tried to touch her arm.They had been teasing and toying with her ever since they brought her in; the whole gang seemed to be in a good mood, perhaps due to the operation that they had carried out. She guessed that it was a successful one.She had no idea why they had attacked her previous kidnappers or what was their beef with the so-called demon, and she didn’t even want to know. All that she wished for was to go home alive.Isn’t it funny that she wants to return to the same place that she despised so much? The home that she always wanted to flee fromElena knew that this was all her dad’s fault, but she did not hate him for it, in fact she was worried

The gang watched as Elena was taken away by two men, she was not the only one surprised with the sudden VIP treatment she was getting. Was this some sort of game or what? Why did the Boss order that she be taken care of? She didn’t resist however, even though she wasn’t certain that she was safe yet, she just needed to be smart with her moves.“Boss, why did you do that? I don’t mean to question your decision but that isn’t exactly how things work here. She was found in the enemy territory, she should be used and thrown out rather than be given a VIP treatment,” Luca complained.Leonardo frowned and turned to Luca. “I hope you haven’t forgotten your position in this family, Luca? I am the head of the family; you don’t get to question my decisions. Like I said before, if you want to remain a part of this family, then you have to go by the book, and I get to write that book,” he reminded them.Luca bowed. “I am sorry, Boss,” he apologized with an appealing expression on his face.Leonar

“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
Love in Thorns, Guns and Shackles A Mafia Massacre
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
Love in Thorns, Guns and Shackles The Mafia Lord's plan for revenge
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
Love in Thorns, Guns and Shackles Joining forces
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
Love in Thorns, Guns and Shackles He confessed his feelings
“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
