Chapter 2

Lorenzo Demario

The first gunshot rang to my ears. It was followed by more shots ringing out,corrupting the silence.

I feel like myself the most with a gun in my hand.

The realisation that I was in control gave me an euphoric feeling. A smile framed my lips at the thought that I ended someone's life.

I lowered my gun before shooting one last time. My mind flashes back to the look on his face after the first shot. He looked like he could still be saved.

I watched the hope in his eyes as he begged for his life before finally putting him out of his misery. It fascinated me how someone that was so full of life could look so lifeless.

I loved watching the life slip out of their bodies. It gave me immense satisfaction, I was in control.

I sucked the life out of them,just like magic but with my hands.

The light caress on my cheek,like the warm summer air was the blood from his chest.

It was invigorating to watch blood escape from the body of a human.

The blood rushed and gushed trying to escape like a prisoner that had no hope of ever escaping.

To watch blood seeping out of the body of a human like it was finally free.

It was exciting to watch life strip out of someone. It's like one minute,the person is so full of life,then the next,the person is dead. No sign of life, emotions on the person.

I signalled one of my men to clean up the mess.

There was some sickening pity that lurked in the depth of his eyes. It was repulsive.

"Take care of him and let Romano know that he was useless. He didn't know shit about Diablo"

Diablo was the cause of every hatred in my heart. He was the reason why vengeance was embedded so deeply in my every senses.

Every gunshot that was ever caused by me,by my fingertips left behind a dream of it being him behind the trigger.

"Send in Damien",I growled out

Shit is officially about to hit the fan

I hear a knock on my office door.

"Come in",I called out gruffly.

"Damien do you have anything for me",I growled out.

"B…boss I a..am still working on it", He stutters out and I pin a glare on him.

I walk towards him, taking small strides till I reach him,toe to toe.

I see him moving back and pushing himself into the wall as if that will save him from me.

"By the end of today I expect to see some dirt on the Spanish mafia,Do you understand me", I growled out.

I had him pinned to the wall,my hand on his neck,choking him.

"I take you like a brother but don't ever forget your place", I whispered into his ear.

When his face starts getting blue,I let go of him and he falls into a heap on the floor.

"Remember,I give you 24 hours,If you don't find me anything substantial within 24hours,You don't need me to spell out what would happen to you" I said, cocking my gun at him.

"Yes Boss",He mumbled.

I found myself feeling guilty because Damien is like a brother to me but in my world, there is no place for emotions.

I flicked my wrist towards him and he bolted out of my office.

Just as I'm about to get back to work, I hear another knock.

I let out another groan before shouting,"come the Fuck in

Romano walks in,a hint of amusement in his eyes. He likes to see me riled up.

"Boss, there's a prisoner for you. The men caught her when they were raiding the port. She was in an alley,they suspect her to be sent to spy on them",He reported to me

.

"Let them just end her", I said not in the mood to waste my time on things I considered frivolous.

"Boss,you might want to see her before you make a decision,she's something else",He advices sounding concerned.

I pick up on the concern in his voice.

Romano never sounds concerned except it's something serious or dire.

I stand up,grab my jacket and head to the door.

I see him staring at me and I feel the urge to laugh.

"Are we going to interrogate some bitches or what", I asked with a grin.

Romano leads the way and gets into the driver's seat of the Lamborghini while I sit next to him.

The car ride to the warehouse is filled with silence. We're both busy with our thoughts. It's honestly more of a short ride but it could be because we were speeding.

We get to the warehouse and everywhere is tense. Romano glances at me and I furrow my brows in response.

As I walk in,I feel the fear emanating from my men and I wonder who or what could be capable of eliciting such fear from my men other than me.

I walk in, taking leisurely strides, Romano behind me.

The minute we enter. I see one of my men on the floor,a knife in his thigh,his face a picture of agony.

I'm not in support of my men being killed off or hurt by others except me but his reaction is enough to make me burst out laughing especially because he's like that because of a woman.

I enter the room to see my men panicking and I feel anger brew within me.

Every where was in disarray and confusion.

They didn't even notice my presence. I grabbed one man by the throat forcefully and they all finally recognize me.

The chaos comes to a halt and I can finally think clearly again. I burst into the room they kept her only to see no one there.

A movement outside catches my eye. I find myself looking outside the window. I see the figure of a slender woman.

I couldn't see much because it was dark.

But from what I could see,she had red hair.

I was about to look away before I see her turn. I see her striking color of sapphire blue eyes and I fight the urge to choke on my breath.

Our eyes clash together

Sapphire blue and Forest green

I almost fall on my knees because that's………..
