002: That name is off limits.

CASSANDRA.

I bat my eyelashes making sure I was hearing him well, “what??”

He growl, “Seems our little cat has ear problems? Tsk, I don’t like it when I repeat myself.” He mutters under his breath then lean closer, “Replace the bride you father killed, be my bride,”

I gulped down the lump on my throat, “Huh?? No, I mean, why? I can get you your money within few months,,” I blurted out them like I got a reality check with his mockery laugh.

What was I even saying?

“Pay me? Billions? Wait, are telling me you’d get billions in few months with that peanut part time works you do? Don’t get me tipsy with your jokes, little cat,” he snapped.

I’m so stupid, Why did I even think of that?

“One more thing, your father stole from me meaning he took my thing without my consent and the same goes for you, I DECIDE what I want you for, little cat,” He declared.

“I..”

“Whether I kill you or I take you as my fake bride..that’s up to me. I own you now!” He yelped giving me no room to say anything

His looks almost tear up my heart. Daddy, what kind of trouble is this!

“Dre?” He called out to his assistant who came out from where he stayed and bow.

“Yes, Don.”

He turned to Dre putting back the Gun into his pocket, “Get the boys and car ready, seems like we’ve got a new special member,” He muttered to him then winked at me with a dreadful grin, he walked out.

Dre came closer to me and released the copper used to tie me, “count yourself lucky that the Don is letting you go,” he whispered and had an irritated expression on his face.

Was he expecting me dead?

I scoffed, “letting me go? How is that letting go? I’m literally stuck here.”

“Nicola DeSanto isn’t someone that give people chances, consider yourself a lucky lady if not, your blood would have been the thing we’d be cleaning up now,” He growled staring at me.

Why is he so bitter? He’s not even the boss! Why so rude!

Then, I recalled something, “Wait…N..Nicola? wait, Is that Nicola DeSanto?!,” I shrieked like I’ve just discovered a big truth.

Dre looked at me from head to toe, “So, you want to tell me that you don’t know that’s him? Should I call you naïve?” He snarled.

I blinked my eyes, “Isn’t he the man that kills people like ants? He’s the mafia man everybody prayed never to come across?!” I mumbled.

Dre smirked, “Thank God you know that, behave well if you don’t want him to split your head into two,” He warned.

I’ve been too busy with my work that I hardly check the news but I’ve heard so much about the dangerous mafia man, Nicola DeSanto.

No need for tales, I know, yes. I’m doomed.

NICOLA DESANTO POV

The car pulled over at the front of the Villa, Simeon, my driver came from the car and opened the door for me, I came down looking the most handsome.

Another car pulled over behind me, I smirked at her. I’ve got a little toy to play with for the mean time.

Dre rushed over to me, he lean closer, “We’ve caught the guy that leaked out info to Trevor’s boys,” He whispered into my ear, a wicked grin pulled out from my lips.

“So, where did you keep him?” I asked and Dre led the way, I looked at the little cat who was surveying the whole building.

“Simeon, take the little cat to her room. My bride shouldn’t be seen roaming like an homeless woman, hehe. That doesn’t LOOK good on her,” I instructed and with that I followed Dre.

Dre stopped at the usual door that led to the underground, I smirked. “Open the door,” I told him which he insert the passcode into the digital door lock

The door opened, an elevator appeared and took us down to where the guy his, well, I must say, my boys haven’t done anything to him yet. Tsk, Only few bruises on his eyes and lips? And a copper on his neck?

“Welcome Don,” They all chorused when they noticed my arrival.

“I see you’re being nice to the young man, not even his ears are harmed? Tsk,,” I mumbled and went over to the guy tied on the wall, his head upside down.

“Was it you? The scumbag? You should have known better before you leaked our information,” I whispered to the guy and he held a pleading look.

“I.. I’m so sorry, it won’t..” I didn’t let him finish his words when I gave him a resetting slap on both cheeks, he passed out.

I turned to my boys, “You should have gotten rid of his mouth. Imagine him trying to beg me? I have no mercy,” I growl and the boys bow.

“We are sorry, we will do better!” They chorused.

“Do your best! Wake him up, I want him to feel pains that he’d be asking for death and not to be saved,” I command.

“Yes sir!” They replied in motion and with that I turned, leaving the underground, Dre followed.

“Get me list of people that bastard leaked their info and tell him where Trevor is, “ I instructed him

“Yes sir,,” Dre replied then all of a sudden I turned to him.

“And why do you keep holding that look? Is there something I need to know?” I snapped at him, he’s been looking like that ever since I went to that little cat.

He straighten up, cleared his throat. “Hmm, I was just wondering why you kept the girl close?”

“Which girl?” I queried though I know who it was he’s talking about.

“The little cat,,,”

At the mention of the name, I walked closer to him with a burning look, “ That name is off limits, I’m the only one to call her that. Don’t get me upset, Dre.”

He bow immediately, “I’m really sorry sir! That mistake won’t happen again,” he apologized while I rolled my eyes.

“And I don’t think it’s your business if I choose to keep her or not,,, but since you’re so curious, She’s my new toy, till I’m tired, she will be only MINE,”
