CHAPTER 34ELENAWe got home exhausted, and all I thought about was how to crawl into my bed and enjoy a good sleep. We walked into the hallway; I turned to Luciano “Good night Lu, see you tomorrow I said and started walking towards the door that leads to my quarter. “Darling!” He called out to me sadly “Are you not going to spend the night with me?” I didn't expect to stay with him tonight, I just wanted the whole of my bed all to myself.“No Lu, I'll be in my room tonight,” I said to him. I walked back to where he was standing and kissed him on his lips. “See you tomorrow,” I said to him and ran into my quarter. The next morning I woke up at 6 am and prepared for the day's work. I have a lot of things to do today, I already made plans to go to the mall with the chief chef. I walked into the kitchen but there was no one there yet so I picked out a coffee mug and a pack of instant coffee. I put it into the coffee machine with The mug under it till it was filled with coffee. I adde
CHAPTER 35LUCIANOI heard a knock on the door, “who could it be” I thought to myself. So I walked to the door and unlocked the door, it was Franco after all standing in front of the day. “Get in,” I told him and walked back to the bed where I was lying alongside my laptop. “Sit down,” I said to him while my hand signalled "he sits on the couch located at the left side of my room”. Franco stood still with an iPad in his hands rather than sitting down. It indicated that the matter at hand is urgent and needs urgent attention. “Franco, what is wrong this time?” I asked him in a serious tone. He raised his face and spoke up “We are short on men at work and guards in the mansion. As it stands it is risky, it needs to be filled out”. “Oh! Do you have a list of men for recruiting?” I asked him sitting up from the bed. “Yes Don” he brought up his iPad and brought out a list he already made along with the pictures of the men. He handed it over to me so I could scroll through and delete s
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
