“What's happening? Not now grandma please not now”.

Courtney said in her mind,as her heart raced faster than ever.

They arrived at Grandma Elizabeth’s room.

Courtney’s breath hitched in her throat as she hurried to her grandmother’s side.

Who was lying there, pale and motionless.

She gently shook her hand.

“Nonna, please, wake up,” she pleaded, her voice cracking.

She didn't move an eye lid.

“Come on grandma,please I am begging you,you were perfectly fine last night.. please”.

Courtney sobbed but she remained motionless.

Courtney turned to the maids, panic rising in her chest with tears flooding her face.

“Get Dr Norman here immediately,” she ordered.

The maids nodded and quickly left to carry out her instructions.

Courtney took Grandma Elizabeth’s cold hand, holding it tightly as she willed her to wake up.

“Please, Nonna, please,” she whispered, as tears continued flooding down her face.

“Who did you leave Antonio to? What will he do if he gets to hear this…We need you now”.

    “I'm so sorry sir,” he said quietly, his voice tinged with sorrow. “We couldn't save her. She… she passed away a few moments ago, she was poisoned…”.The words hung in the air, heavy, and suffocating. Antonio stood frozen, his mind struggling to process the devastating truth. The room seemed to tilt, the walls closing in around him. The doctor closed his eyes expecting a hit, something, anything, but there was no single sound heard.He slowly opened his eyes to see Antonio walking towards his grandma's bed.The doctors and nurses immediately exit the bedside like a water splash“Poison?”He asked…“Yes…yes sir”.Why will anyone poison Grandma Elizabeth, and what could they aim to achieve with it?“No…”Antonio chuckled slowly.His grandmother, the one person who could calm his storms, who had been his anchor, was gone.“You are joking”.He laughed out loudly.The nurses lowered their heads, crying silently.Suddenly, a loud guttural cry of anguish tore from his throat, a raw, primal

    However before Damon could act, the faint rumble of engines grew louder, cutting through the stillness like a thunderclap on the horizon. Damon’s eyes flickered with shock as he glanced toward the source of the noise.Suddenly, the area was flooded with the roaring sound of power bikes and sleek, black cars. One by one, they emerged from the surrounding woods, forming a circle around the helicopter and Damon’s men.

I have always dreamt of killing you with my own hands. Fuck Montero's world!”One of them with a scar running down his cheek by name Xavier, leaned in close and whispered into Antonio's ears.His breath reeks of alcohol and cigars.Antonio said nothing or made any attempt to fight.He knew better not to act smart besides his hands being binded,he is as helpless as a handicapped child.Also the cold metal of a gun pressed into his side, is a stark reminder of the danger he will get himself in,if he acts in any way that doesn't sit well with these men.The night was fast approaching and Antonio had no idea of what else to do to escape this.
