MATTEO'S POVNIGHT OF MARDI GRAS02:20am
Just before Father Donnaly reaches for the bag he carried up earlier, I manage to grab him and yank him backwards where he lands face first on the Church floor.
"Aahh!" "Hellppp" he screams, trying to alert who ever else is in the Church with him.
Annoyed at my inability to keep him quiet, I angrily grab one of the pointy brass candle stick holders and stab it directly into Father Donnaly's Left eye, causing him to scream in pain.
"Aaahhhhh" he shreiks, blood spurting out from his empty eye socket, as I yank out the candle holder along with his eyeball.
"What's that noise?" I hear a couple men shout from the Church basement.
Before they get up the stairs, I quickly slit father Donnaly's throat

PRESENT DAY( after worldwide lockdown )Adriano(PoV)I can finally see her, the object of my obsession. I've waited so long for this moment, hunted for her all over the world. She thought she could escape me, runaway from what we have, thought that I would eventually get tired of chasing her. Well, she thought wrong. And now the chase is finally coming to an end. I'm almost too excited to wait! One more day I tell myself, one more day and then she'll be all mine.THE NEXT DAYI wake up with the sun and admire the soft orange-yellow hue as it rises. My full length windows give me the perfect view of this scenic country and all from the comfort of my own bed. I can't help but smile thinking to myself that this will be the last time I'll be sleeping in it alone.Walking through the streets of Marseille I finally see why she chose to hide in the south of France. I spend most of my walk admiring my beautiful surroundings
PRESENT DAYKlara(Point of View)I look up from my book to see exactly who dared to disturb me on my day off and my whole body freezes in shock and disbelief.As I stare into the greenish blue eyes of the man I tried to kill a wave offear begins to wash over me."Ad-adriano, y-you, your..." I stutter unable to finish."Yes, Baby I'm here" ” he assures, his accented voice dripping with the remnants of his Columbian heritage. Adriano smiles as he grabs my hand bringing my fingers to his lips. His action jerks me back to reality and slowly my shock starts to turn into panic.No, no, no, he can't be here I think to myself, he's a week early! He wasn't supposed to find me, not yet! I'm not ready for this, I'm not ready to face him. No, I just need to get away from him.I stand up knocking my chair back and start to back away from him all the while watching for when he will try to stop me, but he just
PRESENT DAYKlara(PoV)"F*ck my life" I mutter as a particularly nasty Russian kicks in the back of my legs.Once on my knees they use hand cuffs to restrain me. Oh god, how am I going to out of here I think to myself, but my thoughts are abandoned when a huge explosion occurs at the back of my " safe " house.Most of the men go outside to investigate the cause of the loud bang leaving only two men to guard me. Outside I can hear gunfire and then another explosion, this one is larger than the first and I can actually feel the vibrations through the wood panel flooring.I use the temporary distraction to attack the legs of one of the guards causing him to lose his balance and fall.He hits his head really hard losing consciousness and dropping his gun.I try to grab it, but his partner kicks me in the abdomen before I can get it. I wince in pain, coughing as he drags me back into a kneeling position and c*cks his gu
PRESENT DAYKlara(PoV)After over an hour of driving he makes me turn into what seems like the entrance of some winery and we start making our way through a narrow gravel road. A large house starts to come into view, wait no, did I say house? Sorry, what I meant to say was a large Ass mansion.I park infront of it and turn to look at Adriano. "Get out" he says rudely, jumping off himself. Once outside he starts texting for a couple of minutes before noticing I'm still in the car. "I.....said....get....out" he says slowly accentuating each word as if I'm a child. Annoyed at his antics I flip my hair and face the opposite direction, crossing my arms."Hello? Are you deaf, I said Get Out!" He says, obviously irritated at me. "No" I reply not saying anything more. There is no way I would ever let a guy treat me that way! "You know I can make you come out, right?" He sighs rolling his eyes. "You know I don't care, 'right?' "

I ask back."They block the whole bl**dy street! How the hell do they expect people to drive?" He complains, looking out his window. "You realise I'm the one driving, right?" I say, shaking my head."Don't remind me, you control freak" he retorts."If I had left you to drive you'd run over all the people." I pointed out"Damn right I would. Someone has to teach them to get out of the f*cking streets!"I laughed, knowing he was being completely serious. He's a heartless son of a b**ch, my half brother.Even as a child he lacked empathy, not being able to feel sh*t like a normal person. And whatever feelings he did have was beaten out of him by his father Stefano, my mother's second husband."Matteo answer the

One of Igor's friends cuts in, completely ignoring my presense."Damn mann, I would totally F**k that!" Igor says, making my heart sink.. but for some reason my mouth keeps on talking, not wanting to shut up."So, did you see how awesome the parades were this year?" I say to no one in particular.I wait a coup

"Hey Foxy Mama, You smell kinda pretty. Wanna smell me? Hoo-hah!" Says one of the guys, pretending to be Johnny Bravo."No! Leave me alone" I say pushing him off"No need to be so mean, we just want to talk to you " says the guys friend, walking towards me.I start backing up, trying to get away from them when someone from behind me wraps an arm around my waist "where do you ththink yourrrr gooingg" the culprit slurrs into my ear causing me to cringe from his foul breath."Get off of me!" I say trying to wriggle my way out of his disgusting grasp."Don't worry baby the three of us are going to take care of you real good" says ' ' Johnny Bravo's ' ' friend as he continues to approa

3 YEARS AGO MATTEO'S POV NIGHT OF MARDI GRAS 02:00AMEverything is deathly quiet as I turn into the Church parking lot, which is completely empty except for an old maroon golf someone probably abandoned.Smiling, I enter the Church, thinking about all the jokes Adriano use to make about me catching fire if I ever were to enter one.Guess God still thinks my soul can be saved I think bitterly, but that will probably change by the time I leave.....because I have always been and will always be a killer. Nothing can change that.As soon as I enter I see a priest walking up from what I assume to be the Church basement.As soon as his eyes meet mine they widen in shock and he
3 YEARS AGOANNIE'S POVNIGHT OF MARDI GRAS02:00AMBy the time I arrive at the Saint Louis Church it's already almost 02:00am and roads around are all extremely quiet, I guess living on the outskirts of town didn't help much.Once I park in the empty parking lot outside the Church, I quickly jump off and head in towards the Church."Klara?, Klara?" I whisper, trying to find her.The Church is giving off an eerie feel and I feel like I'm in a horror movie. Gulping down my fear I force myself to open the giant Church door. It makes a creaking sound as I open it, bringing attention to the fact that the Church is completely empty. "Klara?" I whisper again, so softly I doubt she would here me if she actually is here. As I walk between the pews to the front of the Church I hear someone. " No you idiot! unload them first! Are you trying to shoot someone!!" I hear a man

Matteo asks, only now noticing the absence of our missing companions. "They had to sort something's out with an officer" I reply vaguely. "I told you that you should have just let me bribe them, we would have already had the police in our pockets by now if you hadn't stopped me." "Bribes cause greed, blackmail creates loyalty" I remind my brother, making him shake his head and walk away. But, despite my brothers reservations, I know from presonal experience that blackmail is way more powerfu
3 YEARS AGOAnnie(PoV)NIGHT OF MARDI GRAS11:45pm“shit! I think staring at my phone, it’s almost 12 already. I felt so guilty bailing on Klara and even more guilty, about not being able to tell her why I bailed.I thought that I would still be able to make it after picking my mom up from the hospital, but it took longer than I expected it to, and it didn’t help that she was so drunk.“Klara’s probably home by now” I think out loud to myself. Maybe I should phone to apologise, I think, still feeling guilty.Nervously, I start to dial her number.“Hello”, she answers. “Omg, Klara I’m so sorry I couldn’t come, I swear I was going to but, it’s just………something came up” I blurt out all at once without taking a breath.“I don’t want to hear it Annie” She yells though the phone, making me flinch.“I’m sorry Klara, honestly and besides at least you got to spend time with Igor” I remind, trying to
PRESENT DAY Klara (PoV )"No way, Klara I'm not taking the blame for this" Matteo complains shaking his head. "Really?" I question. "cause I think Annie would really really want you to take the blame" I reply smugly. "I swear Klara as soon as I get Annie away from you, you're fucking dead!" “whatever, just take the rope” I say, handing Matteo the murder weapon. “what the fuck happened!” Adriano yells, looking at our dead prisoner with a mixture of shock and anger” “I was just wondering the same thing” I agree feigning shock.“what happened Matteo?” I ask, turning to Matteo, who was just glaring at me. “He tried to attack me, and I accidentally killed him” Matteo lies, trying to come up with a valid excuse, poor bastard.“how, did he attack you? He’s still tied to the the fucking chair” Adriano questions, screaming the last part in his face. “Are you accusing me of something Adriano ?” matteo challenge
3 years ago Adriano( PoV ) NIGHT OF MARDI GRAS 11:30PM "Where the f*ck are you Matteo?" I yell into the phone." Adriano?" He questions, sounding sleepy." Come back to bed Matteo" I hear a girl say" ya, Matteo we are waiting for you" another girl purrs." Don't worry ladies I'll be back in like two minutes" he replies. "No you f*cking won't!" I all but roar into the phone. "Hey dude you're kinda killing the mood here" my brother whisper yells into the phone. "How about you take an uber?" He suggests making me want to kill him." if you're not here in the next 5 f*cking minutes Matteo I swear- ""Jesus! Fine I'm coming, I'm coming!" He says cutting me off. Just as I hang up the phone a police car drives past us, slowing down after seeing the wreckage "sh*t!" I mutter under my breath."Is there a problem officer?" I ask as he rolls down the window, frowning at our wrecked car. "What happened to
3 YEARS AGO Klara (PoV) NIGHT OF MARDI GRAS 11:00PM "You're cold" he mumbles wrapping his jacket around me tighter. It's not the cold it's the fear I think bitterly shivering more when he wraps his arms around me.....'why cant we just get rid of her?' Andres words from earlier runs through my mind in a continuous loop both reminding me of the imminent danger I face and motivating me to get out of my current situation. "My brother will be here soon, then we'll drop you home" he says after a while breaking the silence between us. "I could just call my sister to pick me up" I reply not trusting him to take me home. "There's no reason to worry her when we can take you" he says frowning "She really wouldn't mind" I try again, this time taking out my phone. Just as I am about to dial her number, Adriano snatches the phone from my hands. I look up at him shocked and try reaching for my phone but, he j
PRESENT DAY Adriano(PoV)What the f*ck I think to myself as I enter, my prisoner just as shocked, as I drag him in behind me. "Klara??" "Matteo?!!? What the hell happened here" I ask, looking around at the wreckage before me. All sense of normalcy disappeared as I take in the blood spattered glass and fragmented furniture that cluttered the floor. While a very calm Matteo and Klara stood in the middle of it all. "Zmeya" the Russian shouts starring directly at Klara. "What did you say" I ask crouching down to him."ZEMEYA!!" he screams in my face, lunging and viscously biting my shoulder."F*ck!" I curse, before kneeing the crazy b*st**d in the head. He blacks out instantly, leaving me to deal with the other two crazy fuckers in the room. "Now, I don't know what hell happened here but one of you better have a f*cking explanation because I've had one b*tch of a day " I say looking from Matteo to Klara. Who are now staring
