Chapter 4

The night had arrived, it was still Saturday, the bar seemed much more crowded than during the week, Caterina had assumed that it was normal, those millionaires always too busy would take advantage of the weekend to go to admire the beautiful dancers, that was demeaning, although the girls did not seem to bother them in the least, on the contrary, they seemed too amused by the looks of those unpredictable and dangerous men.

"You always stare at the others, are you envious of not being the one dancing on that pole?" said one of the waitresses.

Caterina looked at her companion, she knew well that she didn't like her, she was the one who had teased her the most after getting permission to wear a less indecent uniform, however, she was little interested in the woman's opinion of her, she could call her a prude, Santa and other unoriginal nicknames, she would not fall for her provocations, she had no time to deal with that kind of people, she already had her hands full with Hades Visconti and his harassment towards her.

"Yes, maybe one day" replied Caterina with a mischievous smile that immediately annoyed her companion.

Of course, she would never dance in that place half naked, she was a decent woman, but annoying her partner had turned out to be more pleasant than she imagined.

"You're nothing but a pathetic little dead fly, I don't understand what Hades sees in you" the woman said with a hint of envy in her voice.

"So that's what it was all about, you like that lowlife who won't stop harassing me and you decided to bother me in return, I'm afraid the pathetic one is not me, at least my dear, I don't have to go almost naked as you understand for your mobster to notice me" said Caterina with suspicion making the short, copper-haired waitress rage.

"One day that lowlife will give you the sex of your life and you will end up like all the girls in this bar, crawling at his feet begging for more, that yes, he won't do it again, I'm the only one here he has fucked more than once, he only goes for you because you are the novelty whore, don't feel special, all of us here have already been in his bed" answered the jealous woman and then left.

Caterina smiled at that statement, no way she would want to sleep with a guy like that, a sex addict who seemed to want to fuck everything that moved was definitely not her type, leaving towards the tables, she was relieved not to see him still around, it was still early, he would surely arrive later, Hades seemed to have nothing else to do anyway.

Far from that millionaire's bar, the powerful gaze of Hades looked furiously at that report, his wretched brother had once again interfered in his business, this time, screwing up one of his loads of narcotics to be distributed in the luxury bars of the city, Zeus was a constant pain in the ass that he never managed to get rid of, he and his father, enjoyed making his life miserable, always seeing him as little less than scum, he was sick of them, ever since his mother died they had done nothing but fuck him over, all the damn time.

"Damn, Rodriguez, this time my little brother screwed me big time, fortunately I always have a backup plan, hand out what we have in the cellars of the Temptation, I already want to see Zeus' face when he realizes that I don't achieve his pathetic amendment, my father's favorite doggy will fail again in his attempt to screw me" said the handsome Hades with a malicious smile.

 "It will be as you say, however, we can't go on like this for much longer, you better settle your differences like little brothers and kiss each other's cheeks, Zeus may be an asshole, but he runs all the damn pharmaceuticals from here to China, he's hunting our clandestine labs, so you have to do something boss, or else we will all be really screwed, we could send some hitmen to do the job, it would be the most convenient" said the middle aged man looking at Hades nervously.

Hades looked at that subordinate with real anger, no way he would send someone else to do his damn job, if someone was going to assassinate Zeus, that would be him, only a Visconti was in charge of another Visconti, that was his golden rule, and he would not allow anyone else to have the pleasure of finishing off his older brother, only he had the right.

"Zeus is my fucking business, no one else but me will take care of it, so stop that stupid idea right now, or I'll put a bullet in the middle of your eyebrows" replied Hades at that audacity.

"Sorry Hades, it won't happen again" apologized the employee to then leave almost running away from the furious presence of the mafia leader.

Walking towards the balcony of his luxurious apartment, Hades admired the beauty and splendor that Italy had to offer, plenty to choose from and nothing that really interested him, his life, even with everything he had, was boring at times, drinking straight from his bottle of luxurious whiskey, he remembered just the moment he decided that it would be necessary to create his own mafia, he was still a boy of a few years old when it all started, Fligio di Satana, he had been born as a plan and an act of rebellion against his father who chose Zeus as heir instead of him, although he knew well, that he was superior to his older brother in every aspect, he had run away from home a long time ago, taking only his mother's photograph with him.

His mafia had grown to become the largest in all of Italy, and he had the luxury of refusing his father when he begged him to come back, he was now a 28 year old man, multi-millionaire and powerful, he had nothing more to desire, he had it all.... however, those sea water eyes suddenly assaulted him, Caterina De Santis and her pure beauty, her innocence, her courage to face him were driving him crazy.

Drinking more of that luxury bottle, he felt a tug in his crotch, never a woman had managed to make him so hard. Desire, a burning desire that burned him was what Caterina made him feel, he had had a hundred women naked and under him in his bed? but not her, none like her, taking his leather jacket, and seeing that it was already closing time at the Bar, he hurried to leave, he wanted to see that woman he liked so much.

Caterina was cleaning the tables, all the damn customers had finally left and it was her turn to close and clean everything, none of her "nice" companions, had stayed to help her, Becca's driver was waiting for her outside to take her home when she was done, it had been a heavy night, several customers tried to get on her nerves, she felt too upset about it.

Looking at that metallic tube where the dancers offered their exotic dances, she was tempted to try it, that sensation she had been observing for days, a false freedom, it seemed, there was no one there to see her, she was alone, leaving the wet rag with which she cleaned herself, she went up to the stage, caressing that cold tube, she felt a shiver run through her, remembering the mockery of her classmates, she frowned annoyed, nobody believed her capable of doing something daring, and they were right, she would not do it .... at least not in public.

The music was still playing, she had not turned it off to accompany herself while she finished cleaning, feeling how her heart was beating a thousand per hour, she felt an unknown emotion invade her, trying to imitate the dance steps she had already seen many times, Caterina embraced that tube, moving her hips in an erotic and sensual way, she felt sexy, as she had never felt before, surely her parents and everyone who knew her, would die twice of a heart attack seeing her do such a thing, that thought made her smile, loosening up more, the beautiful woman danced, not knowing, that every erotic movement she made believing she was alone, was watched by Hades Visconti.

Hades watched his Caterina dancing on the bar, so sensual, so provocative...approaching her without her noticing, he went up on stage and took her by the hips, holding her close against his body, dancing with her, letting his warm breath fall on her slender swan neck that provoked the darkest desires.

Caterina felt all the colors of the world rising from her feet to her cheeks, in her excitement, she had not noticed the presence she already knew too well, not until the moment he had glued himself to her, her legs trembled and being about to fall, Hades held her between his strong tattooed arms, staring at each other, sapphire eyes and sea water lost in the other, Hades, running his fingertips over Caterina's body until he stopped at the beginning of her breasts, stared at her again.

"Don't do this in front of the others, dance like this only for me, you belong to me Caterina De Santis, and I won't allow anyone else to see you like this" said Hades with a hoarse and sensual voice to then kiss Caterina's lips with desire and passion, completely demanding and dominant, the beautiful woman, who had been paralyzed before that powerful, sexy and imposing look, let herself be carried away at that moment.

 That first dance, a vindication, a man who desired a woman, a woman who felt her hips burning while her heart threatened to escape from her chest, a first kiss, demanding, sexual, Caterina felt lost... and she didn't know if she wanted to be found.
