CHAPTER 36ELENAI stood beside the chef at the counter waiting for the payment to get to our turn so we could make our transaction and leave the mall. “Why is the mall so crowded today?” I asked myself. I felt a man dressed in black while wearing a black face cap move past me through the crowd at speed. He brushed me a little on my shoulder. I looked around but could see a man in black and black somewhere and it made me a little scared but I gathered my courage and looked down at my basket to check if anything was missing from the products I picked out. I saw a letter covered in red colour, it wasn't just any kind of red, it was the blood kind of red; it looked like they had dipped it under red paint and raised it after it had absorbed the colour. This made me scared so I dropped all the baskets immediately in fear. I knelt on the floor and picked up the letter while my hands and my body shook. I opened it up slowly until it was fully opened, all it contained was a blood stain and
CHAPTER 37We walked straight into the car which Franco used to crash into the stalker's car, he put on the car and drove off to the mansion. When we got to the mansion Franco got down, he opened up the door and I stepped out. While I walked past the mansion's entrance I saw new faces that I hadn't seen before, I turned to Franco and asked him “Were new guards employed and assigned to the door? Because I see new faces here”. “Yes dear, it is that time of the year when the battle for territory leadership arises. We have to ensure that the security here is tight and you, especially my dear, are safe”. “I want to leak out a secret to you and I will like it if you understand it and abide by whatever rule that would be given to you by the Don”. He said to me, I kept my ears wide and open just to get in every word that he would drop here for me. “The Don has never disclosed any woman to the mafia world because he has never been in love with anyone. I'm surprised by the way things turned
CHAPTER 38 LUCIANOThey finally traced Elena back to the house. It means that that guy wasn't the only one tracing her previously. “Wait here I'll go take care of things,” I said to Elena.She tried arguing but gained an evil glare, I can't take chances with my woman. I know it's intense this time because they now know that they can use Elena as a weapon against me. She is now my weakness and it is very evident. I walked down the stairs quietly with a knife in my hand. I saw the shadow of a man slowly approaching me too so I silently, when I got close I threw a punch at whoever it was only to discover that the punch went through Franco's face. “Fuck” he yelled, I quickly covered his mouth to prevent him from yelling any further. If we were truly under attack right now his yell could give out our location.I know my punch can be disastrous and that's why a lot of people do whatever they can just to avoid it. “I'm so sorry Franco, I apologised to him in a low tone while messaging
CHAPTER 39LUCIANOI looked up to Franco “We need to set them a trap, that's how we catch them” I said to him in determination. “How do we set the trap for them?”Franco asked me to be sure about what I wanted to carry out and how dangerous it could be.“The bees want honey and to attract them I need to keep the honey. That's how we trap them” I said to Franco. He looked at me so confused, “So if I get you correctly, you want to set a trap for them with Elena. What if something happens to her, would you be able to bear it?” he asked me seriously.“Now that's where you come in, you will be close by guarding her throughout this operation,” I said to him. “Okay Don”, he said to me, “I need to meet with the distributors of the new set of drugs so I'll take my leave now” he gave a bow and left***I called Elena through the telecom “ Hey darling, can you come into my room? We need to talk” I said into the phone.“Okay, I'll be there in 20 minutes”. She replied. “Why wait till the next
CHAPTER 40ELENA“Here's your coffee for the day”. I said handing it up to Luciano. He sat up in bed and picked up the coffee from my hands. He looked at me In some way that seemed like he was contemplating something, after a while he straightened his face and called me close. “Come here darling,” he said to me, which I did. “I have to tell you something. I've been contemplating whether or not to talk to you about this but you must know because we would majorly need your help”. “Tell me everything I need to know and how you need my help, “ I said to him eager to help. “Well first of all we need to take our bath and have breakfast before I tell you. You need all the strength that you can gather” he told me. Now this man was making me curious and anxious about whatever it would be. I went into the bathroom alone this time and took my time to have a good bath. I got out having a short towel wrapped around my body only covering from my boobs to my butt cheek. Luciano was on call so
CHAPTER 41I entered the car after Luciano contacted Franco and his boys. Luciano came into the car and spoke to the driver “This is my wife, if I find 1 hair missing from her head or her skin tampered with, I will make you and your family disappear”. He said to him firmly“Be careful with her, she is my egg,” he finally said. I smiled at him, and he gave me a peck on my cheek “You'll be fine” he assured me. Luciano closed the door and hit it twice indicating that the driver was now free to move the car. The driver put on the car and drove off, while I enjoyed the ride all I could think of was, who had the guts to challenge Luciano and was also coming after me in order to get Luciano at a dead end. Could it be Alexander? I thought to myself, that man seems like the play-dirty kind of mafia. I can't wait for this person to be caught, that way the tension right now would be reduced, I thought myself. While I was lost in all these thoughts I heard the driver say to me “Ma'am they are
CHAPTER 42ELENAThe boy stayed there speechless, he said nothing and this increased Franco's furyI was started as another slap was sent across the boy’s face, Franco sent a blow to his stomach, and this made blood come out of his mouth. I couldn't stay and keep watching them or I might pass out.out.The stench of sweat and blood was becoming too strong for me to handle. I tapped my driver on the shoulder, he turned to me and I said to him “Please take me to the car, I can't stay here anymore”.Franco saw me leaving, he walked fast to catch up with my pace, when he got closer he said “ Elena, where do you plan to go after you leave here?” “Home, of course, I said to him. “Okay I've been behind you as you go” he assured me. “Put the bastard in the car” I heard Franco say to his men. They put him in the trunk of the car and locked it up. The driver opened the door to the car and I walked into it gently. He closed the door and walked to his side, he entered the car and drove off whi
CHAPTER 43LUCIANO“What offence have I committed that would make you attack me this way?” Marsel asked him. I walked to him and raised his chin, “You have gotten yourself into some deep shit young man”. “Grab him!!” Franco instructed his men and Marcel was taken into custody. They tied his hands at his back tightly and wrapped his mouth with a big tape then threw him into the trunk of the car. One of the boys opened the door for me to go into the car and closed the door after I entered. They all entered the van and we moved out of Marsel's house.The ride from the outskirts of town was rocky, it was a rough ride indeed but after about 30 minutes we were back into the town. Marcel was the 4th person whose fingerprint was found on the letter and it's weird how he lives and works on the outskirts of the town. He was taken to the other cell in the torture basement. I had a business trip engaged in, so I gave Franco permission to torture him and get the truth out of his mouth. 2 Days
