Salvatore's POV:

“If I give the signal… Our dear boy would be with his dead parents… In a matter of seconds… “He says, and I blink at him in as an unfamiliar feeling begins to wash over me. No. This isn’t unfamiliar… I’ve felt it before. I know what it is. It’s… Helplessness… Fear… It is what I felt the day I lost my family.

I look back at the laptop screen and my fists begin to clench. He looks so peaceful. Unaware of the danger hanging around him. I told him not to leave the room. So, why did he step out!? That room is the safest place in the whole house. Why did he disobey me?? Why did he put himself in a situation where I wouldn’t be able to help him?? Why has he put me in this helpless situation??

“Now, that you’re calm. Let’s discuss. “Dimitri’s voice breaks into my thoughts as he stands up and walks into the kitchen. I watch him rip off the sleeve on the arm I shot, and his bare arm comes into view.

The entire arm is covered in blood that most likely trickles down to his finger

  • The Mafia's Boy Toy   45. Kill The Boy

    Salvatore:I stare at the massive grin on Dimitri’s face. I know what he’s doing. He’s playing a game. A game I also know how to play well. It is one game my father has played several times and taught to me before he passed. Before you can win a battle physically, you need to win it mentally. And Dimitri is trying to break me mentally.What a joke. I can’t believe I almost lost grip like that.I put my gun into its holster, and smile at him. I watch his grin falter, and my smirk deepens. I walk round the counter, past him and further into the kitchen. “Care for a snack? “I ask as I open a cupboard and grab a bowl.Dimitri turns to look at me, and I raise a brow at him, he scoffs with a chuckle and nods.“My drink is fine. “He replies, and I wave dismissively at him.“Oh, please. You went through so much to get my attention. Proper hospitality is the least I can offer. “I reply before grabbing another bowl.I walk over to another cupboard, pull it open, and I am welcomed by an array of

    Dimitri;“Kill the boy!? “The words burst out of me before I can stop them. He doesn’t mean it. He can’t possibly mean it.I look him over in disbelief, and he smirks at me. “You heard me, Dimitri. “He says, and I scoff in amusement.There is no hesitation or fear or even… Deception in his eyes. Does he truly mean it? Could I possibly have read him wrong?“I mean… You want him, I want him. I’m not gonna let him go, and neither are you. Some boy isn’t worth the hassle. And it’s hilarious to know that you thought a street thief of all the things in our world, would be my downfall. I expected better from you, Dimitri. “He replies as he grabs another cookie from his bowl, and I dig into his eyes.Searching for the truth. Searching for lies. Searching for uncertainty. Fear… something. Anything… But I find nothing.I am constantly met with a brick wall. He either really doesn’t care about the boy, or he’s an exceptional liar—an impressive one.“Let’s come to an agreement… Wow. That’s somet

    David:I love Desmond….I love Salvatore…I love him as both people…I repeat the words in my mind as I hop down the stairs, and a massive grin splits my face when I get to the bottom of the stairs.“I love him as both people… “I whisper inbubbling excitement and a vicious blush. I play with my thumbs as I remember his scent and how his body felt against mine.Flames come to life in my cheeks. “ David. I want every breath you breathe to be for me. Everything you think… Every… moment you live… I want a fragment of me in it. “I shut my eyes and bite my lower lips as I remember his words. I open my eyes and only then do I realise that I’m standing in the dining and can’t quite remember what I can for.Oh, that’s right. Water. I’m parched and there was none in the room.I walk into the kitchen and look around the dark room. I don’t even know where the light switch is. What if the guards see me and mistake me for a thief? Should I ask someone for help? Who would I even ask? Maybe I shoul

    Salvatore;I barged into my bedroom, barely able to contain my heart. Most of me was expecting to see him dead, drowning in his own blood, but there he was on my bed. Alive and well.I couldn’t understand the swarm of emotions that flooded me, but I know I feel angry. Angry at myself for being so weak, and a danger to people I care about. Angry for not being there for Lucas. Anger at Dimitri for daring to invade my space.Am I angry that I placed a dangerous bet with David's life? Throwing the bait and hoping that David’s life meant just as much as I thought it did to Dimitri. Or am I just angry that David didn’t obey me, and put himself in harm's way??“Why did you disobey me!? “The demand rips past my jumbled thoughts, and he immediately sits up. Under the light of the chandelier above him, I can see the fear on his face, but that doesn’t alleviate my anger.“Answer me! “I demand further, letting the door slam shut behind me as I walk to the side of the bed while he begins to tremble

    Salvatore;“I noticed earlier, but decided to indulge you cause you’re new. But it seems you’ve gotten the wrong idea. “I continue, and I watch his eyes struggle to contain the tears threatening to break forth.It hurts to watch. I can’t stand it, but I have to. I need to. If I hurt him, he has a chance to heal. But if he dies…“I am your boss, David. You work for me. You’re no different from my other men. The only privilege you get is that we share a bed. You get to pleasure me. And if you fuck that up, I can get any one of the other to fill your place. “I say. The lie ripping my heart as it makes it past my lips, and David exhales. My words seemed to rip air from his lungs. He’s gone red. Fighting with all he has not to break down in front of me.“Why… Why are you saying all this to me? “He croaks, and I swallow.He suddenly rips his hand out of my grip, and pushes me away from him.“Stop saying things you don’t mean! It hurts! I… I know I made you angry, and I’m sorry. I won’t do

    David;I wipe my tears away angrily as I look at my reflection in the mirror. My chest is heavy. It feels packed… packed with sorrow. I can barely breathe and my heart won’t stop pounding.I remember Sal’s words and I shudder and throw my gaze away from my face. He can’t mean it. He can’t possibly mean any of the cruel things he said to me.“You’re crying? “Her soft voice says, and I pause. I look up at the mirror in disbelief, and when I see her, my jaw drops. I turn to her in shock, and she smiles bitterly at me. “You knew this was a dangerous game from the start. Yet you went on… Why did you let yourself trust him? “She questions as she walks to me, and I stare at her pretty brown eyes.“Because I love him, mom… “I croak, and she pouts. She holds her hands out to me, and I rush over to her.She hugs me while gently patting my hair, and can’t hold back my sobs. I tighten my hold on her warm body. Her sweater still smells like lilies. She looks just the same as she always did.“Can’t

    Salvatore;There he is on the cold floor, curled into himself. His arms are wrapped around his torso, and I can tell that he fell asleep crying.I take off my slippers and walk over to him. Careful not to make any noise. I sit on the floor beside him, and I stare at his beautiful brown hair. I reach for him, and my hand stops halfway.What right do I have to touch him? I’m the one who got him in this state. I made him sad. I made him cry. I’m the reason he’s asleep on the bathroom floor. But… He belongs to me. If I don’t look out for him, if I don’t care for him… Who will?I bury my fingers in his hair, and I inhale at the warm feeling of his soft hair. I gently rustle it, and he groans softly in his sleep. Causing me to freeze. If I leave him here, he’ll catch a cold… But he looks too peaceful to be disturbed. I caress his cheek, and he exhales as he moves towards my touch. Causing my heart to start racing in excitement. You broke my walls. Made me love you. And just when I have fal

    Salvatore;Flashback…“Are you okay? “His soft voice questions as he pulls off his shoes, and I keep my gaze on the floor. I don’t need to look up to know it’s him. His scent, his voice, his charisma, and that light he carries around him.“I’ve been better. “I reply, and there’s silence. I move back when he suddenly sits on the floor in front of me, and his violet, bright eyes lock onto mine. He smiles brightly at me, and I just stare at him in confusion.“What are you doing? “I question, and he shuts his eyes and tilts his head.“Spreading happiness. I’m having a good day today, so you’re not allowed to have a bad one. “He says like an excited child and I sigh. Our roommates aren’t around, and it’s just two of us. Me on the bed, and him kneeling on the floor between my legs. If someone opens the door right now, they will get the wrong idea.” What’s on your mind? “He questions, and I sigh. Deciding to relax.

    Lucas;He adjusts on the bed and bites into one of his cookies. “I’ve known for a while now.” He says casually as he chews, and suddenly, his eyes light up.“Wow! This tastes amazing!” He exclaims, and I blink at him. How the hell did he figure it out? Should I lie? Does Sal know he knows this? Does he know Sal was…“I also know Sal was Desmond.” He adds as he keeps eating, and I reach for the wall for support.I don’t know if to deny this.“Sal knows I know. I don’t think it would be fair to keep you in the dark.” He adds, and finally, he looks up at me again. He looks unbothered, and me. I don’t know how to feel about this, so I blurt out the first thing that makes it past the chaos in my head.“How did you figure that out?” “What do they say about a magician and his tricks?“ He replies, and I scoff before moving back to the bed. He doesn’t seem upset or worried by it.“I underestimated you,” I note, and he laughs.“A lot of people do.” He replies, and I stare at him in disbeli

    Lucas;“What if Sal hasn’t let himself love anyone else since Dimitri, cause… somewhere in his heart, he still… loves him?” I chomp on the chocolate cookies Mrs. Lana made me as I reminisce on David’s words.Sal can’t possibly have feelings for Dimitri. It’s impossible. Right?I’d know… For me, not even being able to tell that they once dated, it should mean he doesn’t love Dimitri anymore. Right??I groan as I walk over to my ceiling-to-floor window and stare at the ocean. This man will be the death of me. I watch as the water ripples gently with the moon reflecting gracefully on it, as I listen to the waves gently clap in the distance. I shut my eyes. David’s sad face comes to my mind, and I peel my eyes back open. I understand how he feels. But it’s pointless for him to feel that way.I don’t understand the Sal and Dimitri drama, but I know Sal is in love with David. That’s not up for debate. The only person who isn’t loved here… Is me.There’s suddenly a knock on my door, and I

    David;“Wait… You didn’t know?” I ask him, and Lucas’s mouth falls open as he stares at me. “No, I didn’t know! How’s that even… What? How did you… Where did you hear something like that?” He questions. Absolutely dumbfounded, and I scoff in disbelief.I can’t believe Sal didn’t even tell him.“WOW!” I exclaim before looking away in disbelief.“Wait. You can’t be serious. That’s not possible. I would know. He’s never mentioned anything like that.” Lucas exclaims, still in shock, and I turn to him.“It is true. When they were teenagers. Dimitri told me… And he showed me pictures.” I replied, and Lucas stared at me in silence. His dark green eyes blinking in disbelief.“You’re sure they were photoshopped or… or edited pictures?” He asks, refusing to believe it, and I shake my head in disagreement.“I would know an edited picture when I see one. It wasn’t fake, Lucas. I asked Sal about it, and he begged me not to talk about it.” I reply, and silence falls upon us. “How could he hide so

    *Song For This Chapter: I Can’t Make You Love Me(Cover) By Bon Iver*Lucas;I stroll through Sal’s mansion with my cup of milk in my hand. I wanted booze, but Mrs Lana refused to give me any till my wounds healed properly. I kiss my teeth as my mind fails to make the milk taste or seem like alcohol.“So much for the power of imagination…” I whisper to myself as I keep walking, and looking about the dimly lit house. Dark as Sal likes it. This was his childhood home. He always avoided this place, but he came here to keep David Safe. He loves him that much… It is pitiable to see that the fool still hasn’t realised how much he loves the boy. I’m about to walk past a corridor when I hear someone humming in the distance. I look down at my watch, and it’s 11:30 pm. What normal person isn’t asleep by this time? Oh… Right. I’m awake too.I follow the voice, and I stop when I see David. He has his back turned to me and is staring over the sea behind the estate. He’s in long, navy blue woolle

    David;I let out a long yawn as I open my eyes, and I’m confused when my gaze lands on a black ceiling. Where the fuck…? What is this place?? Wasn’t I with Sal??I sit up in a panic, and relief washes over me when I find that I’m still in the car. I look back down at the seat in confusion, and I find that the chair has been reclined. Salvatore must have done that.I realise that I’m alone in the car with its windows down, and the car is parked directly in front of a hospital. A hospital??Why are we here??Aren’t we going to pick up Lucas? Salvatore soon walks through the hospital doors, but my brows crease at the person beside him. The person Sal is helping to walk. It’s Lucas. What happened to him? I try to open the door, but realise that Sal locked me in, and I frown.Why did he do that? They soon get to the car, and I scowl at Sal as he reaches for the car key in his pocket. He presses a button, and all the doors open. Causing me to roll my eyes. “Why did you lock me in?” I

    David;I thank Salvatore as I take the bag from him and pull out one of the gummy packs, when a thought hits me.“Want one?” I question, and he nods awkwardly.“S-Sure…” He replies, and I reach into the bag to give him one. He got me so many…“Thank you.” He replies, and I force a smile at him before looking down at the pack in my hands. I tear it open and am about to put my earpiece back into my ear, but he suddenly speaks.“D-did you like breakfast?” He questions, and I look up at him with a raised brow. Why did that sound weird… and rushed? Like he was desperately trying to start a conversation? Well, I have been silent for half an hour. It’s only fair I say something.“Hmm,” I reply, and I see hurt in his eyes. I let out a breath as he looks away, and kicks the car back to life. I watch his gloomy face as he pulls out of the gas station, and I begin to feel guilty. He was expecting more… but I’m not in the mood to talk.“It tasted different, though,” I add, and I see his eyes lig

It’s time for breakfast.” He says as he tries to pull off the duvet, but I don’t let him.“I’m not hungry…” I slur, but he doesn’t relent.“Yes, you are. You didn’t eat last night.” He says, but I don’t respond.“You don’t have to get out of bed. I brought it up here for you.” He adds, and this partially removes sleep from my eyes.What does he mean he brought it up here for me?I slowly raise the duvet and peek out at him from under it. In his hands is a tray of covered plates, and the aroma hits my nose. My stomach rumbles, and I immediately sit up as I rub my eyes.“Good morning, sleepy head.” He greets me as I yawn and stretch, and I just stare at him as my thoughts start falling into place. I need a few seconds to do that every morning.“Good morning.” I greet him, and he smiles. He

To choose to love me…” I croak as I wipe a line of tears from my eyes, and Mrs Lana sighs as she closes the bottle of honey and stands up.“Do you know why I decided to work as a cook for Salvatore’s family?” She questions as she returns the honey to the fridge, and I raise a brow.“Why?” I question, wondering how any of this is related to what I just told her.“Cause I wanted peace. I wanted to be able to cook, and sleep, drink tea, and watch television for as long as I wanted,” she says as she closes the fridge. And I raise a brow.“And… You don’t do that?”“I do it. But every now and then, I can’t enjoy the simplicity of my life, cause you two boys want to kill me with stress. “She says as she folds her hands over her chest and gives me a look.“One of you’s a coward, the other’s blind— and I’m just a

He wants me to stay… He needs me to stay… But he doesn’t love me. And that kills me. I couldn’t bear to see him broken like that… crying like that. I said I’d stay but I don’t know if I have the strength to. To leave, or to stay… I don’t know if I have that strength. Why won’t he just love me?Does he think I don’t love him? Am I not good enough? Will people laugh at or disrespect him if they find out that we’re together? Maybe I’m unworthy of his love…“I told you from the start, didn’t I?” Her voice flows into my ears, and I freeze. I look up and find my mother staring at me.“Loving him was a mistake. He’d never love you. You’ll never be enough for him. This is not the type of life you’re meant to live. Let me in. Let me guide you. Let me help you… You’ll kill your heart if you stay with him. You’ll wallow in loneliness and pain, David. I
