All I saw before I collapsed again was Rocco motioning to his men to chase the man who was already several meters ahead of them. My eyes flew open at midnight to see his huge frame pacing the room before he slowly settled in front of the window with his hands in the pocket of his brown pants.

I could see the sides of his brows raised in anger. He was lost in thought, obviously. His intense gaze pierced through the shiny city. Many things must have been going on in his mind. He must have had so many questions he needed answers to.

For a tiny second, the thought of sleeping again so I wouldn’t interrupt him crossed my mind, but I also figured out that waking up would be the priority on his mind. I needed to take that off his mind, at least, so I gathered the strength to stand to my feet.

My legs were wobbly when I stood upon them, but I managed to take a brave step, and I was able to walk well to his side. He was really lost in thought because he didn’t know that I was at his back

    “Hey! Over here!” the voice called out as Bojana stepped into the garden.It was her friend of several years, Ashley. They had met on the street of Italy when they were kids and became very good friends before she suddenly relocated to Germany after two years. Their encounter was a funny one.Bojana was running away from home that evening after her drunk father suddenly barged into her room and demanded that she cook a food she couldn’t obviously make. She was still trying to persuade him that she couldn’t cook that certain dish yet when he descended on her. He designed her face and body with heavy blows that were too much for a kid.It was not the first time but Bojana was pushed to the extreme that day. She couldn’t take it anymore. Immediately she dashed out of the house, she headed for the gas house with an empty keg. She had trekked all the thirty minutes distance before she realized that she didn’t take any money with her.Going back home without the gas was a no for her. She wo

    |Rocco|I had the feeling that my visit to Denmark would be bloody, but I didn’t want to let Irena down, and there was nothing to be afraid of actually. I have always lived my life in fear of getting killed or killing them before that.Although I rarely shoot anyone to the point of death because my father taught me how to take them down without making them lifeless.“Just because you are a mafia doesn’t give you the license to kill every fly and ant,” he had said to me when we started training.I developed my method of weighing their punishments according to their offenses. Also, I never forget the real reason why I became a mafia in the first place.I had an honest talk with Bojana, who assured me that there was nothing to be afraid of since we were just going there to chill for a few days. I never knew something like that would happen.The doctor gave the report of the pool water being spiked with Veridium, which is a very poisonous and tricky element because it is odorless and colo

    That was it! The approval I had been waiting for. I never needed approval for anything in my life because I had the power, but with her, it was a must. I had to wait for her to be ready, even though it was torture, but it was a sacrifice I had to wait for. She had so many things on her table to take care of, and I wouldn’t want to be selfish and get her distracted.I was also running my own background checks to see if there was anything I could find out concerning her mother’s case. I didn’t want it to be a relationship based on deals; I wanted to put a genuine smile on her face.“Are you sure? I do not want to hurt you or make you feel forced. I understand that you might be feeling bad, but if you don’t want to do this…”She met my lips halfway with hers and shut me up instantly. Her lips were mashing with mine aggressively as I struggled to keep the towel off my shoulder.“Shhh! Just fuck my brains out!” Her voice wasn’t sexy or tiny; it was raspy with lust.Her eyes were begging fo

    |Irena|Everything about us has changed ever since that night. It felt like the wall between us was broken with the hot moment we had. I had wanted to go all the way, but we ended up talking about everything else, so we couldn’t continue.We flew back to Italy, and life got busy again. He had to catch up with all the work he had left during the trip. Martins did a good job keeping the guys together in his absence. Rocco was rarely home, sometimes he would go out for three or four days before coming back. He fired me from being his consigliere for the main time so I could focus on my mother’s case, and I understood his point.That morning, he had just gone out for a meeting out of town and told me that he would be going to Jamaica from there because he had an avoidable assignment. I got a call from Paul, who told me that he had another update concerning my case.Martins and Bojana already went with Rocco, and I didn’t feel comfortable walking with his guards, so I just told them to sta

    |Rocco|I had so many crazy tasks to carry out when I came back from Denmark. There were so many documents pending my approval. Although Martins did a good job in coordinating some meetings and sealing some deals, my approvals were still needed for finalizing some of the deals.I had just finished a midnight meeting with Bojana that morning and was heading home when I sensed that I was being followed.“I think you should turn left at the next intersection,” I instructed, and my driver didn’t argue.After a while, I confirmed that we were being followed truly and instructed my driver to make a turn again. I kept directing him to several places and Bojana didn’t say anything to counter me; she only loaded her pistol in silence.“Those dead rats surely know how to step on one’s toes. I can’t believe someone will be so unfortunate to cross me in this terrible mood! They are done for,” she muttered under her breath after loading her gun and glancing into the side mirror.“Enter the next st

    I didn't have Matteo's time ever since the string he pulled on me. He ran away from Italy because he knew it was not safe for him; he had stepped on my toes, and I would never forgive him. He had spent more than six months in Jamaica where he ran to, and it was beginning to tell on his business. His major business site was Italy, and he probably didn't find anyone loyal to handle his business on his behalf.“Have a ticket booked to Jamaica as soon as possible. It's high time I finished my task concerning him,” I said to Bojana, who got to work immediately. “How many extras?” She questioned “You, Martins, with three other men. That should be enough for his small ass” I responded“Copy that,” We got home and I found out that Irena had been waiting for me all day. According to her, she had practiced fighting, read, eaten, and did other things to pass the time because she had been bored all day.“I'm sorry, I keep getting so many tasks these days. I have to clear them as soon as possi

    The next day was indeed tense. I wasn't in the mood to play it soft with Matteo. Although, I didn't want any situation where I would have to kill anybody, the chances were so slim. He would get defensive for sure and try to protect himself at all cost.I kept thinking about the ways I could minimize the casualties if there would be any before Bojana walked in with a document. She had been out all day trying to get everything in place because she never trusts the reports of the men who are not directly under her completely. She would claim that they can also switch to the other side and lead us into a trap anytime, without a warning and I couldn’t agree less.“I have found a way for us to go in without shedding any blood. I am sincerely worried because we are in a foreign land. We need to be discreet as possible so I had to look for all ways and this happened to be the only available option that could work,” she reported, handing the document over to me.“How do I repay you for always

    We waited for about fifteen minutes before he woke up after Martins threw an entire bucket of ice on his face. He was breathing like a rat doused with water as he struggled to crawl to his feet when he finally regained his senses.“The biggest mistake you made was thinking you could run away from me forever. I wasn’t even planning to repay you this early if only you didn’t decide to pull a smart string on me,” my raspy voice taking over as my anger level rose with every memories of his stupid shenanigans“Forgive me! I am very sorry! I shouldn’t have done that. I will give you everything you want so please forgive me. I will do everything you want me to do,” his desperate pleas became music to my earsHe shouldn’t have crossed his lane when he knew he didn’t have much backup. I expected him to have several men guarding him but he must have thought the security of the club would be enough to make him untouchable. Sadly, I had access to everywhere I wanted as long as I was ready. “You

    I just realized that we haven’t really discussed Auntie and who exactly she was. She got introduced to me by my mother, and I grew up relying on her when we moved to the town. She helped me so much and brought me to stay with her when my mother got arrested for murder.We didn’t have any situation or opportunity to talk deeper about her, and I had always felt too comfortable to be bothered by all that. All Auntie did in her entire life was cook. She would cook even on days when she was sick to the bones.There was a time she collapsed while cooking because she was doing it nonstop. The funniest thing was that there was no customer to eat all that she had cooked because it was midnight. I came out to have a glass of water and saw her cooking aggressively before she passed out.“You should have just taken it slow. Why were you cooking this hard?” I scolded her as I attended to her in her room“I have to prepare it for them. If not, they might stay hungry the entire year,” she groaned in

    The stare of horror on their faces showed how scary my screams and dripping palms were. We all stood there looking at each other, my body trembling with hatred and disbelief. I couldn’t comprehend all that I had just watched. A head banging headache swept me off my feet as my chest rose and fell.Before I knew it, I was on the floor with dim eyes. My body couldn’t bear the weight of oppression from my emotions. I had broken down once again.“Let’s help her up! Irena!” Auntie’s scream barely kept me awake before I passed out finally.I woke up to the fluid being passed in my body and saw the same doctor that treated Rocco during the first gunshot standing close to the door and discussing with the men. I couldn’t hear what they were discussing, and I wasn’t even in the right frame of mind to eavesdrop.“We will talk more about it when she wakes up,” was another line I heard before I slept off again.I woke up to see everyone having dinner, and they all rushed to my side when they saw me

    |Irena|I realized they were trying to distract us as I cried in the morgue. My mother’s body was filled with several marks that had come from bullying and torturing. It was then it dawned on me that all those bruises I saw when I last visited her were from the maltreatment she had been facing in the correctional center.“What a foolish daughter I am. I didn’t even think deeply into what the bruises could mean. How did I end up believing that she only tripped and wounded herself?” several thoughts filled my mind as we headed to the center to get the rest of her thingRocco held me in his arms as Paul drove the car silently to the location. His soft but huge arms were rubbing my shoulder to keep me calm, but I had so much going on in my head even though my mouth was not moving.The guards at the center were taking longer than usual to attend to my request until Rocco stepped in. I had previously told him to wait for me in the car while I go alone to get her things but when I saw that t

    “We have to move faster than their investigations. We have done a lot to keep this buried for years. They cannot just come to ruin all our hard work at this point,” one of the men sitting at a round table with sushi and several sashimi dishes glaring at them.“That’s why we have been taking them out one after the other. We cannot allow any loophole in this operation. One of our men is on the way to give us the report on the progress of the operation,” another responded, reaching for his cup for a drinkThe other men released a uniform groan as they released their ties, buttering their frustrations. They had all been unsettled ever since Irena found the files they had been searching for all year. They had turned the house upside down over and over but none of them could find where her mother kept it.“We already concluded that she didn’t have the file. I don’t understand how that bitch managed to hide the file till her daughter found it. We even had the inmates bully and beat her just

    |Irena|I couldn’t believe all that I had just heard. My head tried to process it over and over but it felt like it would explode if I thought about it too much. What in the world happened to Rocco? How did he manage to stay calm in all of that? What was the reason behind him keeping quiet and holding back for so long? I had millions of questions running through my head but I couldn’t bring myself to ask him any.“You smart fool!” those were the only words that flew out of my mouth softly. I couldn’t begin to imagine the pain he had been enduringThe day I showed him the picture of my father, his father was also there. How did he not react? Why did he not explain to me and bore the hatred from me? I had hurt him with my words and actions but he never for once tried to bail himself out.“Why did you not tell me? Why did you not point it out that your father was also a victim of Bruno? How did you even manage to stay in that hell and pretend as if nothing was happening?” my tears flowed

    It was around the fourth year of my stay in Italy. At that time, I had bonded with everyone in the villa and became a legal member of the family. My father had started taking me to meetings and made me handle some of his tasks because of how good I was.I couldn’t hide my extreme hatred and disgust at first. It was too hard to pretend. The person that killed my mother was the one I had been adoring, worshipping, and calling father all these while. No doubt, he was also the one that killed my father. He ruined me and my family and also had the nerve to play on my memory.“Is something wrong? You haven’t said anything much or even trained for days ever since you woke up. Are you mad at me for hitting your head on the pole?”Bojana couldn’t stop feeling bad because she thought my attitude changed due to the incident but after assuring her that the accident was not the issue and that I just needed some time to myself, she decided to let me be till I would come around by myself.It took me

    Of course, he was happy at the proposal but he was also someone else’s slave so the uncertainty of his master releasing him was the biggest obstacle.“Thank you..” His eyes lit up with happiness; everyone could tell that the offer gladdened his heart so there was no way he could even turn down the offer or say he wasn’t pleased with it“Once again, thank you for the offer but.. I don’t know… I am” his stuttering got in the line of his statement as he hesitatedHe didn’t want to upset both his master and his new savior. Thankfully, the person he saved already knew what the problem was so he came to the rescue“What? Are you afraid of your master? Do you think he won’t let you go?” he asked and Kovac nodded immediatelyHe had just said what was bothering him and with the look of things, it seemed like the Savior already thought of it too and how he would handle it.The man’s huge hands brushed his hair slightly in adoration as his lips curled into a smile for the first time he had ever

    He woke up to find the ship fighting for balance in the middle of the sea and after a slight interrogation from two people, he found out that the ship had been sailing for almost a full day and he had been out the whole time.Rushing to the other side of the ship, he tried checking everywhere to see if there would be any face he could recognize but no one seemed familiar until he ran into one of the men that came to Mateha’s house. If he had his memories intact, he would have bolted from the scene before the man saw him, but unfortunately, he got captured before he could even say a word and was locked in the storage for the rest of the day without any food or water.The second day, he was dragged out by one of the hefty men, with his face looking like an overgrown garden because of the multitude of beards attached to his chin. His head was long and high in the center, making everything about his visuals traumatizing.“You think you can go anywhere? We own you now! We are your boss!” h

    They marched back into the town and were led by the boy in the hood who knew Marko’s house. Unknown to them, Andrej had told his wife that if he doesn’t come back within the hours of one and two in the morning, she should flee with her son, Kovac.“I think something must have happened; we need to escape right now,” she tapped Irena’s mom, who had dozed off while waiting with her.They didn’t waste any time and rushed up to pack after waking the kids. Thanks to Kovac’s mom, they were able to escape before Bruno’s men came to the house.“Find them! Don’t ever let them get away!” His voice trembled with every word that came out of them as he gulped down the alcohol from the bottle in his hand every minute.They searched for them but couldn’t find them until they had to withdraw at daybreak.
