He unbuttoned his shirt and starts folding the sleeve as he walked towards his mini bar in his house, this was his own personal haven, unlike other Capones he didn't live with his men in the huge mansion, no instead he had a rather smaller, much comfortable and homely place just by the side of the mansion meant for his men.
It was inside the same compound but you'd never guess he lived there, it wasn't too huge or flashy, it was just perfect for him.Everything he needed was there and the peace and quiet was the most amazing thing about the house that he likedHe took out a whiskey bottle and a small glass, he opened the bottle and poured a small quantity of whiskey into his cup, before dropping the bottle back in it's place.He walked around the island in the bar, and towards the living room, he sat on the couch still holding the half filled glass of whiskey in his one hand and used the other hand to pick up the file Matteo gave him earlier that day.He dropped the glass on the table in front of him and opened the file, Matteo was right, it was an exact replica of the one he took from Greg's office but as he read through it, he could see the added changed in it.And Matteo was smart enough to make it hidden, that even if Greg decided to read through contract, he wouldn't see it.That was why Matteo was in charge of almost everything that involved paperwork, and the dirty work that Spade couldn't carry out himself.He dropped the file on the table and picked up the brown envelope, the one that contained information about Nathan Miller, the young man that had managed to pique his interest since meeting him.He opened the file and the first thing he saw was a huge picture of him in the front page, he took a while to look at the picture and study his facial features, he had no facial hair, his face look as smooth as a baby's butt, and his nose was kind of small, not too small and also very pointy, his eyes looked kind of dull and lost.He narrowed his eyes still looking at him before flipping the page to the next.'Nathan Miller, 22 year old American, CEO of Miller enterprises'According to the file, He took over from his father at quite a young age, he was only 19 when he became the CEO.Prior to that time, no one had ever heard of him or knew he was Greg's son, strange.No social media handles, he barely even had enough pictures on the internet.Just a few events he was at and the media was able to capture his face without him knowing, a few of which were in this fileHis educational background was not mentioned anywhere.Relationship status, single.He had never been seen with a woman or man, not once since he became the CEO.He was always alone at events, except he had to go with someone then he'd go with his Secretary.For some strange reason, that kind of interested Spade the more.What kind of a man was he?No matter how careful he was, surely once someone must have caught a picture of him with a woman, even if not in an event, outside work or tripsHis life outside the office was not mentioned either.Actually there really isn't much about Nathan Miller in the file, just basic things anyone could see from a mile away.Spade kept flipping till the last page of the file and there was nothing to say about him.He was a bit disappointed and maybe a bit more interested in Nathan.Who exactly was Nathan Miller?He ran his hands through his face and scratched his beards, looking at the file.This was a dead end.Obviously he needed to do the work himself, find out who this man was and why had Greg hidden him away all these years.He was going to find out just who Nathan Miller is and he'd do that pretty fast.He closed the file and dropped it on the table while picking up the glass of whiskey and gulping it all at a go.It burnt his chest but he didn't show any sign of discomfort, he got up and walked inside to take a shower and rest for the night.Tomorrow was gonna be a long day._____________________________________Nate ran his hands down his face as he kept going through paper after paper, he was beyond exhausted and stressed out but he couldn't quit, there was no room for quitting for him.There was a knock on his office door and he answered "come in"The door opened and his secretary walked in, the same secretary his sister had referred to as very hot.She was dressed in what he would consider a rather tight and uncomfortable skirt and top, he could see the buttons on the top almost popping out due to how tight they were.His eyes trailed off to her face and she had one of those smiles on, he almost grimaced at the amount of make up she had on."Mr Miller, these are the contract for the construction company, they'd be coming in tomorrow to pick them up so it needs your signature" she spoke with a flirtous tone before dropping the file on his tableHe picked it up and examined it before scribbling his signature on it and handing it back to her, she took it letting her rather too long manicured nails brush up against his, he almost cringed at it.She was trying too hard to get his attention and it was becoming annoying and irritating.She'd been working for him for as long as he can remember and she'd been trying to get his attention for that long too.He had made it clear on several occasions that he was in fact not interested in her and her advances, not even a little bit.He had bigger problems than screwing his secretary."Your father called" she quickly added getting his full attention now, he looked up at her"What did he say"? He asked, of course he already knew why his father was calling him, but he wanted to hear it again, just to be sure"Something about you running late" she mutttered and he just sigh out and looked at the time, indeed he was running late, by 5 minutes.He let out a deep breath "Thank you Jade, you can cancel all my meetings for the rest of the day" he muttered before going ahead to pack up the papers and put them away.He heard her heels clicking, as she walked out of the office.He picked up his jacket and put it on, grabbed his car keys and cellphone before walking out of the office.He got into the elevator and pressed the floor button, straight to the parking lotThe elevator dinged after a while, indicating he'd gotten to the parking lot.He got into his car and drove off to his father's place, his mind slowly drifting to what he'll meet there.The fact that his sister was going to be given away to a total stranger, not just any stranger, Spade, bothered him a lot.And then there he was, anticipating what it'll be like seeing him again.Like he was itching to see him again, to have him study him like he did the last time they met.The way his gaze scrutinized his every movement, the way his eyes bore into his, as if he could see his soul just from that single stare.There was a way Spade looked at him that day, that made him feel small, like an ant in front of a dragon, that was exactly how he felt.He got to the familiar estate, having the same feeling he got Everytime he visited, the feeling never goes old, and not in a good way.He drove into his father's compound and got out of the car, as usual, the men stationed around the house were still there, with their guns and black outfit.Never smiling or showing any form of reaction, like Robots.He walked towards the entrance and passed the two heavily built men before opening the door and walking inside.His eyes scanned the living room and darted towards the kitchen but he didn't find his sister, instead their help came out, the old lady that always kept the company of his sister in the house."Oh Nathan, Su waited for you to show up sooner, she wanted to discuss something with you" the old lady muttered looking at him with a sweet smile"Where is she"? He asked"Upstairs with your father and the... The scary looking man that came a couple days ago" she mutttered and he just sighed out, before nodding"Thank you Laura" he muttered about to walk away up the stairs but her voice stopped him"Be careful, your father is not particularly in a good mood today" she muttered and he just nodded before giving her a small smile.When has his father ever been in a good mood.He was only ever in a less sour mood than usual, there was never a time where he could pinpoint that his father was happy today and it rubbed off everyone.The man was always angry or disappointed about something or someone.He was already used to it by now, but somehow his heart still managed to beat frantically whenever he heard that his father was in a bad mood, you never can tell with the man.He could do the unthinkable simply because he was angry at something.Exciting 😩😩Nate walked up the stairs and through the hallway before stopping in front of his father's study.He took in a deep breath already dreading what he'll meet on the other side of the door.He knocked lightly and suddenly wished he could high tail out of the house without ever having to return but that was impossible and would probably never happen for him.He heard the low 'come in' of his father before he gently opened the door and stepped into the study.He could feel the whole place tense up, more chiller than the rest of the house, all the gaze of everyone in the room rested on him.He swallowed as the only one he could feel burning into his skin was Spade's, of course his father's eyes were on him too, but the only one he could feel deep in his bones and made him alert, was Spade's gaze.He didn't want to look at him, not because he wasn't itching to see those hazel dull and emotionless eyes, but because he was scared and nervous, he could feel his heart rate skyrocket, his palms g
Spade had just walked out of Greg's house heading straight for his car when he heard the door open, he knew Greg was too greedy to just let him walk away from this deal."Wait" he heard her voice and he scrunched his brows before turning around and facing her.It was Greg's daughter, the same one he was supposed to be married to, she had the contract with her.She was a bit out of breath as she stopped in front of him He studied her for a bit, his eyes stopping at her face, she looked nothing like Greg or his son, with different facial features and body look, she could easily lie that she was in no way related to him and anyone would believe."Uh.... I..." She suddenly couldn't form her words, his stare was very intimidating and scary, there was something about this guy that didn't sit well with her and whether she liked it or not, she would be forced to get married to him.He cocked his brow at her waiting for what she had to say"Um... I wanted to talk to you... About the contract"
Nate was confused as hell, he didn't even know what to do or where to look, he had driven his car along the streets of their estate, in hopes that he'd see his sister on the sidewalk but he didn't.It had been almost two hours now since she left and no one had seen her, his father had long since left the house.Only God knows what he's going to do if Su doesn't return.But why would she leave just like that, without telling anyone, not even him.He ran his hands through his hair and let out a deep breath as he paced the living room of his father's house "You have to calm down Nate, she'll come back" Laura tried to ease his nerves but it wasn't working, what if she didn't come back?What if she's had enough of their father's ill treatment?"Perhaps she went for an evening walk"He shook his head "I've been on the streets three times looking for her, she's not even close to home" he mutteredHis father is definitely going to kill him for this.He should have just kept his mouth shut.B
He starts unbuttoning his sleeves, one arm at a time, while taking slow steps towards the man tied up in the chair, still squirming.He rolls the sleeves up his arms slowly and walked towards the table at the right end of the roomThe man on the chair could barely see what he was doing"Lucas, what do you have for me"? He asked, his deep voice resounding in the room.He could hear the man struggling to speak and shaking the chair violently, as he took his sweet time pick out a torture item.Which should he go for?The chains? No, that's gonna be very messy and he didn't want to ruin the white shirt he was wearing.Or should he just use the knives to cut out parts of his body until he bled out? That's also very messy and unorthodox.His eyes rested on a very particular item and he smirked.Just perfect, he picked it up and examined it.He took out the long wires and pulled it with him until he stopped in front of the man, he could see the fear in his eyes, and he thrived on that fear.
NathanI let out a deep breath as I looked at the neon sign from inside my car, Lust.A very famous Club, owned by none other than SpadeI honestly didn't wanna be here today, I'm out doing this for Su, She's signing her life away to a total stranger, the least I can do is this.But I still don't get why he wants me to apologise, I mean I know why he wants me to apologise but I don't get why he is making a big deal about it.I opened the car and stepped out, feeling the evening sun touch my skin, it didn't burn like the afternoon scorching sun but it was still pretty hot, there was a guy stationed in front of the club, he wore all black, had muscles all over and his face looked scary.I walked towards the front door, I was thinking the guy would stop me or ask me any question, but instead he just kept his hard stare on me as I walked inside the club.It was kind of empty, with Dim blue lights lighting the place up, there was a few chairs and table on each side of the huge room, leavin
He walked into the club and looked around, there weren't much people here, just a few regulars and Scarlett of course, she was standing at her usual spot at the bar counter.He took long strides towards the counter but his eyes caught something else in his peripheral.He turned and saw the main reason he was here in the first place.NateHe was sitting on the couch in the VIP boot, with his head down, even without seeing his face, Spade could recognize him very easily, that dark brownish hair is something he can't forget in a while.He changed course of direction and walked towards the boot and stopped In front of it, looking down at Nate, the young man looked up and his lips parted slightly and he sat properly, Spade looked at his eyes, the same one he was moving constantly not letting it meet his gaze.He looked around the boot and there was nothing on the table, it was completely empty, no drinks or anything.With his hands tucked in his pockets he grunted "Follow me" without waiti
The small boy's legs could barely carry him, he was small, frail and sickly but he was still trying to keep up with the man in front of him, who was dragging him along the street.He was scared, terrified and very much unaware of their current environment.His huge eyes kept darting from left to right trying to understand where they were.It was very dark out already and this part of town looked deserted, no single soul could be seen out, except for the small boy and the man.All that could be heard were whooshing sounds of the wind and a single paper rolling around in the tarred road in the middle of the street.The man held the wrist of the small boy and kept dragging him along like a lost doll, until he reached a very old looking, rusty abandoned building that had nothing except for the one single street light that illuminated it.The man looked around him, from back to front, left to right before his eyes landed on the small boy beside him, he looked at the building and pulled ope
He was sitting at the head of the table watching them all as they all talked among themselves and made small talks.This was all pointless to him, he didn't even wanna be here but he had to, it's his business, this was the part he had to handle by himself.His secretary couldn't handle this.This was the boring part of the business, the paperwork and tolerating stuck up, pot belly old men, who only had one goal, kiss his ass to be on his good side.He rubbed his temple as their voices got irritating and annoying.He wanted to just get up and walk out of the room but there was still a lot he had to do at the office and this stupid meeting.His mind slowly but surely drifted away from the meeting as the face of a certain brown eye young man appeared in his head.He hadn't seen him since that day in his office, he has been to Greg's place once to sign the contract, in a way he kind of hoped he'd meet him there but he didn't.At least now he knows he can't be of any threat to him.Not sin
"I want everything to be perfect" Nate muttered out and his sister just looked at him worriedly as she finally laughed"And it will be Nate, just relax" she said putting her hand on his shoulder "we have the rooftop booked and I checked earlier today, the place has been decorated just like you asked, and the cake is ready, even Spade's outfit has been sent, it's in the bedroom" she explained to him and he just sighed out and placed his hand on his waistHe needed everything to go as planned, he wanted the night to be a memorable night for Spade, after everything they'd been through, Spade deserved this, he even made sure it was at the restaurant they had their first date as friends.He had been stressing about this for weeks and now the day was finally here, he even avoided Spade just so he wouldn't make a mistake and slip up, he knew Spade was worried that they'd been drifting apart, but if only the man knew what Nate had planned for him.He even got them both matching tuxedos, every
One month laterSpade stood in the cell, watching Salvatore, who he had insisted he would keep an extra one month before he would torture, possibly kill, after Nate had asked him to do whatever he pleased with the man.Nate had surprised him when he told Salvatore that he had forgiven him, infact since he met the young man well over six months ago, all Nate had been doing was surprising him.He folded the sleeves of his shirt as he watched Salvatore like a predator watching it's pretty, waiting for a good time to strike."What are you doing here Spade? I thought your fag of a boyfriend forgave me"? Salvatore spat at him, causing him to raise his brows at the crude language Salvatore had used on Nate.He stalked towards a table in the cell, he had it brought there that morning, it had every torture equipment he'd ever used.He picked up two small knives first, then shook his head, smacking his lips"You see Salvatore, my boyfriend may have forgiven you, something I still can't seem to
Spade sighed out still looking at Nate, he gently brought his hand and tried to hold Nate's hand, but the young man just shrugged it off, trying to move away from Spade "Baby what's wrong"? He asked, watching as Nate snickered and scrunched his nose up, he turned to look at Spade with disbelief dancing in his eyes."Are you seriously asking me that" Nate whispered out, and Spade sighed before he sat down on the bedside beside Nate"I'm sorry" he whispered, causing Nate to scoff, Spade didn't know what else to say at that point, that was all he could come up with, he really didn't have any excuse to give."I know I should have listened to you, I shouldn't have left that day" he added, this didn't even seem to pacify Nate as he only turned further away from Spade.Spade grabbed both his hands and held them firmly "please look at me Nate" he whispered, his voice sounded as if he was close to tears, but Nate wasn't sure someone like Spade was capable of crying.Not that he wanted Spade t
Spade sat watching the beautiful man he had come to love with his very existence, if need be he was ready to die for Nate, actually the night he'd gone after Sullivan, he'd hoped he'd die so he could at least see Nate and talk with him one last time, but death didn't come that easy for him, especially for him.It had been approximately one month since Nate was shot and he slipped into coma, one month that Spade had to live without Nate, a very sour and bad experience for him.He'd barely left his side, he even stopped working, Matteo handled the mafia while he never left Nate's side, he didn't want to miss the day when Nate would wake up, although he was beginning to lose hope of that ever happening, even though the doctors had said Nate was responding to treatment and was close to waking up, he didn't see any improvement.It was the sane thing everyday and the beeping sound of the machine Nate was hooked on was getting on his nerve, some days he wanted to have at it and smash it to p
Spade took long strides towards the basement of his mansion, the dungeon where he was told Salvatore was being kept, he hadn't gotten a wink of rest, after leaving the hospital, he called Stefano, asking the man about something he'd asked him to do a while back, and luck was on his side because Stefano already had it under control, giving Spade even more push than he expected.He stepped into the basement and walked right into the barred cells, in the middle of it, Salvatore was tied to a chair, his wounded leg had been tended to, Spade had ordered that, he didn't want the man to die just yet Death was too easy for someone like him, Spade would make him suffer, but first he needed information from the man.He shoved his hands into his pocket, as Salvatore looked up and had a grin on his face when he saw Spade."I thought you had forgotten about me" he muttered, Spade didn't say anything to him, he just watched him with great contempt and rage.He clenched his jaw as he watched the ma
The drive was one of the longest Spade had ever had to endure in his entire life, he kept taking quick glances at Nate on his thighs, at a point he thought the young man had finally given in to his wounds, but the shallow breath that left his slightly parted lips, gave Spade a small but of hopeHe didn't know he was this impatient, not until he had to sit in the back of the car with Nate as he watched Matteo drive, it was as though the blonde wasn't even driving fast at all.But after the unending and torturing drive, they finally arrived at the hospital, he didn't even wait for Matteo to help him out before he got out of the car and scooped Nate up bridal style, rushing him into the hospital.For once he was grateful he'd settle his issue with Garcia, because now he didn't have to go through the excruciating stress of answering stupid questions from the cops about how Nate got shot or whatnot.He kicked the doors open as he rushed into the hospital, with Matteo right behind him, one
Running through the corridor, Spade took the nearest left turn that led down another corridor, okay Matteo was right, this place was a fucking maze, he was running when he almost bumped into Matteo, who was also headed towards the same direction."Was that you"? He asked breathlessly and Matteo just shook his head"I thought it was you" he muttered, and Spade clenched his jaws "and it's not Bernie, because he's with me" "Shit" Spade cussed out, he knew it wasn't Nico or Vince, he left them downstairs, he rushed towards where they had heard the sound, with Matteo right behind him, as they kept meeting more corridors on the way, making it even hard to decipher where the sound had come from.They took another turn, both of them already hoping this would be the last one, because it seemed they were getting lost in this house.They both stopped in their tracks at the foot of the corridor, it was just as long as the others, but he didn't bother looking at the end, because what he was seein
Spade was tense, the air in the car was somewhat awkward and intense, they were already on their way to the location where Nate was being kept, he knew he shouldn't be so reliant on his gut feeling but something inside him was telling him that no doubt Nate would be where they were headed.All the other hints they'd gotten over the past few weeks have all led to dead ends but none gave him this strong belief inside.They had taken two cars, he was riding with Matteo and Bernie, surprisingly Stefano had asked to ride with the other guy that was going with them, for some odd reason it felt weird that for the last hour Stefano had been with them, he hadn't tried to annoy Matteo as usual.Spade could tell something was wrong, especially with the way Matteo had also gone completely silent and his mood somber since they set out on the drive.He'd asked the blonde about it but he just said he was kind of nervous about where they were headed, but Spade knew he was lying, nothing ever fazed Ma
He was sitting at the head of the table, a few of his men were seated around the huge conference room, Matteo was sitting by his right as usual, while Bernie was on his left.True to what he'd ordered Matteo to do, the blonde had called some of his men into the conference room for the meeting, and he looked more alive than he had done in days, hope was evident on his face and it was much stronger in his heart.Something in his gut feeling told him this wasn't just a hunch, he could feel it deep down that he was going to find Nate.He looked at the chairs and it was just Vince, Nico and Murphy, one of his very good shooter, the guy was good with a sniper, he didn't want to have all of his men here, not because he didn't trust them but because the smaller the team, the faster and efficient they would be."I'm sure most of you already know why I called for this meeting"? Spade's voice bounced off the walls of the room, making them to nod, as that was making it even easier for him, he did
