Winter Bear; Stay With Me. Chapter Eighty.
Hayes looked over at his friend who was getting agitated for him and he smiled bitterly, “It would be foolish to take any action as they all have their eyes pinned on me. I make any wrong slip in this dicey situation and that’s it…I suffer even more losses that I’ve been forced to chalk down”. “I couldn’t be so concerned whatever decision they drill down to, I’ve got my most powerful ally truncated so soon before it all commenced…” He was referring to his father and the thought of that woman being behind his unwell condition made his blood boil erratically. If she had truly spent so long plotting in the dark, dedicating all her time into orchestrating a revenge plan against him, it would only be an eventuality that she would want to take his father out so he would have no protectors…no one to watch his back when she dealt the blow. ‘He was a casualty she had debated on already’ A necessary step she had to take, the only easiest route she could take to render him handicapped. Maybe h

Sporadic gunshots disturbed the air that evening, in company was the controversial voices, the painful cries and slurped pleas to be pardoned. A man was dragging another by the tuft of his hair and down into the center of an old warehouse. The mafioso who was being forced to endure such harsh condemnation was tossed over the ground, hitting things and laying over the ground, in the middle of a large group of men. Stefano aimed his firearm and dealt puncturing holes to his ankles, wringing out a harrowing painful cry from Tobias who bent his body to tend to the punctures. Then Stefano moved closer and squatted before the shivering man trying to nurse his busted ankles and failing to control his cries. “You see all those carcasses laying around…” Stefano spoke in a malicious sweet voice, emphasizing on every syllable of his words and gesturing with the gun in his hand, drawing an arc as he highlighted the dead bodies around. “…you got a second, Tobias. I’m in a good mood today you kn

Bloom groaned, her face scrunching up with repine as she fastened her arm around Ella’s torso and pulled her arm over her shoulder. “Did you quit your job just so you could waste your time drinking?” The disgust was in her hushed voice as she supported her drunken friend's weight, practically dragging them both along the empty sidewalk. The reply she got was slurped gibberish and she sighed, wishing she wasn’t there that night. But she was the person who got called and was less busy so she had to go help her friend out. “Honestly…you should quit drinking Ella, it’s really not your thing”. Ella was drowsy and groggy as she leaned entirely onto the smaller woman who groaned. Bloom took in her hopeless state and frowned. She knew there was no use reprimanding her now and just hoped they would find a taxi soon and go home. She had put a call to Hayes who was out with Mario and informed him about it before she grabbed her coat and came bounding towards the club to rescue her wasted frie

It appeared they were after Bloom since Ella had jumped to push her out of the way. And also when they stood there, if they were after Ella, they would’ve driven a second bullet into her body and ended her life. But they seemed to be more concerned about his woman. His brows creased as he peered into the rearview mirror to see her tearing the bloodied sleeve of her friend’s sweater. Bloom tore her own sweater and was using the piece to gently wrap around the injured area of Ella’s arm. Ella was in pain, never had her body received such pain before. Bloom kept muttering her sorrys and when she was done, she sat closely next to her friend, bringing her head onto her shoulder and patting her head while her other arm went around her shoulder. Hayes’s gaze dimmed and his features steeled significantly. Whoever they were, it was obvious they must’ve been contracted by someone who was his enemy. ***“I already called the room service, so don’t be all pouty. Food is on the way” Anna giggle

Sergio in reference giggled with Mario and gripped his hair, pulling the black wig off to reveal his dyed brown hair beneath. “That mean brat never fancies talking about me so it’s fair you never heard about me. He's embarrassed to have me as his brother, you see.” He was acting like a child, speaking with a pouting voice as he dusted the wig in his hand, putting on a pitiful, despondent air and slouched shoulders. Bloom giggled within, well versed on his antics while her lover now held a more confused look, the apprehension completely dispersed. Stefano would never act in such a petulant and shameful manner, would he? They were all convinced firmly now as they watched his childish attitude. Bloom nudged him, “When did you get here? Did you come to see someone? Did you go home before heading here?” Sergio sluggishly shook his head sideways, still pouting as he spoke in that same sad tone of voice, “No…I traced you both here as soon as I arrived home soil. You were both top priorit

“What the heck is wrong with you both?!” Anna shouted angrily at them, a hand on her chest that tried to calm her racing heartbeat. Ella looked spooked out of it and Bloom seemed like she saw everything coming as she giggled quietly. The brothers would never get over such perks it seemed. Mario looked like he was about to cry and when his father got a glimpse of his face, the look he passed at the twins made them shiver and move to do what was expected of them. They quickly apologized and the little boy held on tighter to his daddy who still maintained his unwavering, repulsive glare towards the men. “I’m really sorry about that…and you” Stefano apologized once more and glared his brother’s way, “Never pull such a dangerous stunt like this again”. His voice was weighty with a threat rather than a sleek warning. Sergio shrugged, putting his firearm behind him, “I see you knew I was in here that’s why you were quick to whip out yours as well, huh”. Stefano was silent for a brief mom

“H-how…d-did y-you- W-who are you?” That was when groggy footsteps were heard from down the long hallway and a voice came drifting to where they were. “Mom…are you there?” It was her daughter and she whipped around to see the outline of the girl trudging towards with the heel of her left wrist rubbing against her eyes, a yawn escaping her lips. “Laura” She was going to call out to the girl when she recalled she was still with company. However, upon turning around to address the stranger once more, she blinked. They had…left. The stranger had discreetly snuck out of the house the same fashion they had shucked in. Mounting the motorcycle, ‘In due time, you will come to know of my true identity’. * The nurse had just completed her checks on the patient when she stepped out and strode down the corridor. After she had gone far enough, a figure darted out from a corner and stealthily stalked towards the ward she had just exited. The door came open very slowly, casting the lights from

“This will come as a surprise to you but, we’ve met each other before…way back before your audacious entrance into my life that day” Hayes was speaking close to the shell of her ear, infiltrating her system with his beguiling poison and she jerked her head backward so she could look into his face. Escaping from his whorls of enchanting snare, she asked fastidiously, “We had met before that day…” She was referring to the day they met for the first time and he hummed, answering her thought. “I guess Ben never told you about it then. I had told him about this…that night you were both on the run with your mother and you had come across us…a little boy and his father laid unconscious on the wet floor- “It was showering that night…and that large building was caught up in hellish flames…” She interrupted him as her eyes began to expand in proportion to her realization as she began to recall the event of that day, many years ago. Her hand was slowly lifting and approaching his face, shakin

Bloom laughed heartily to what Anna was saying at the other end of the line as she pressed the button at the bottom of the pen. "You really want to do that? Mario would love it but I don't think Martha would want to join in. It's her day after all..."She was making a list for her daughter's two-year old birthday party and had asked Anna for some suggestions in case she was missing something. "...I think I might have to revise my budget once more" She pouted, using the butt of the pen to scratch her hair as she peered down into the rough scribble."It's good Ella's going with me- you should come with as well..." She began to walk away from the island, heading out of the kitchen where the children's voices came blowing against her.Mario came running down the hallway in pursuit of Benjamin who carried a happily babbling Martha in his arms. Bloom shook her head and stepped back into the kitchen before they would knock into her. "Ben, stop inciting the kids!"She moved away from the phon

“Listen to me! She’s not worth it!” Bloom grabbed his head, raising on the tips of her toes and forcing him to bend down to her as she held a fierce look, searching his flaming orbs as she spoke in a hushed tone.“Hayes…look at me, you’re better than this. I know you can control it…for Mario, you’ll scare him”.Sudden realization struck his mind and he shifted his gaze to look over at the boy who was clutching his grandpa fearfully after his father had barked in that loud and reprehensive voice. He felt sad to see the fear reflecting in the boy’s innocent eyes and deflated simultaneously under Bloom’s gentle pressure. Valerie looked at him calming down and huffed haughtily. Her gaze lowered to her tied hands in front of her and pain distorted the look on her face. She might’ve plotted to get rid of his mother the night of that fire but…she had lost the most valuable things in her life as well. “My avaricious jealousy drove me into committing such a vicious crime…snatching my children

It was Pablo who grinned at the glaring man and innocently walked in, in the company of his sister, his mother and the Don. When Mario felt the new presence that entered into the ward, he looked away and beamed to see Pascal. Carrying his plastic bowl in his hand, he was once again making a great dash. “Grandpa!”Hayes had never seen the Don before and as he observed him closely, he could see the prominent features Pablo had was inherited from his father. “I see you’re having quite the moment yourself huh” Pascal smiled as he had the boy in his arms and the child giggled guiltily. Mario saw the woman that came with them and looked at her with unfamiliarity and he questioned in a small voice, “Are you my grandma?” The child’s innocent question had the adults looking his way and Mrs Jefferson gave him a warm, affectionate smile and quickly glanced at his mother before nodding. “That’s right, I’m your mommy’s mother and that makes me your grandma”. ‘What?’ Bloom, Pablo and Laura were

Standing up, “You could’ve all had it easy if it had been Stefano on your tail…but not me”. Their voice went dangerous at the end and the petrified woman was on the verge of hyperventilating as three loud shots echoed around her and she jumped with great fright. “W-who a-are you?…w-who s-sent y-you…” How shocking it was to see her so badly shaken, it was utterly pitiful to watch and they huffed at her question and came to squat in front of her with their firearm dangling in their loose grip. “The grim reaper, out on a hunt for those who dared to cause Bloom Santiago, pain. Now, on your feet, old hag” They held the gun firmly and pushed its muzzle into her cheek to drill in the command. “Try to disobey me and you end up like that blonde pussy”. She shivered after she heard that. It seemed Adrian had been…she gulped, the situation had completely turned in their favor and all she had worked so hard to build withered away in that single instant. “Move it”. **Bloom entered into the

“Quick! Get her to into the building!” It seemed Valerie had been shielded in time as the commotion began and three men were guiding her as they were running in the direction of the back entrance to the house. ‘Like I would let you get away, you vain witch!’ Adrian couldn’t go after them however. Not when bullets were flying about the place sporadically and the number of fallen men kept on the increase. He had taken cover behind a wall and peered out cautiously to see they were all down and the attacker was nowhere in sight. ‘Did he go after them instead?’ He thought that plausible since they must’ve not been only after him but Valerie as well. Whoever they were that had skillfully mingled into his men and kept their profile hidden so perfectly. He froze, there was a sound that defused behind him and his body stilled on an impulse. He heard it again, louder and closer this time and shook wholly at the dreadful sensation that drenched down his form when he heard the cocking of a g

Laura was going to say that normally but it seemed she was rather excited about it than she presumed. Bloom burned even more at her announcement and shrank into herself, wanting to vanish right that moment. ’S-she’s pregnant?’ Mrs Jefferson's brows shot up with pleasant surprise and she walked up to her and held her hands. Bloom felt nervous and antsy as she lifted her gaze and was stunned to see the big smile on her face. “Does he know?!” Ah, this bubbly girl. Bloom was helpless towards Laura and could only blush so hard and bite her lip as she shyly murmured her hesitant reply, “N-no- how would he know anyway when I only just found out?” Laura grinned toothily and Bloom flushed, knowing she was being played with as she sighed. The girl was such a jovial and boisterous person and so the shy and reserved Bloom couldn’t help but get dragged into her pace and teased like that. “Laura, don’t be a bully and spare her your troubles” Mrs Jefferson chided her daughter who innocently zipp

Sergio was walking down the corridor, in search of the little boy. Mario had suddenly just ran out of his father’s ward and since he was small, he quickly disappeared from his uncle’s sight and was currently nowhere to be found. He had thought the boy would be in his uncle’s ward instead but couldn’t find him there either and he was heading to the lobby when he passed the stranger who was stepping out of the elevator. ‘Hmmm?’ Sergio stopped and turned. He saw the back of a man? Well, the build did give away it was definitely a man who was clad in a biker’s outfit and holding his helmet beneath his right arm. His eyes narrowed but he was distracted when he recalled the boy and took a left turn for the stairs, thinking Mario would have taken that way. The stranger smirked and glimpsed at the departing Sergio and walked on. Appearing in front of a ward and reading the name on the doorplate, they pushed the door open and walked in, shutting it behind them quietly. As if they knew before

“Laura, pass the glass of water. She’s waking up” The woman spoke to the girl who immediately went over to the bedside table and gently picked up the tall glass of water and handed it to her mother. Bloom who had been brought in earlier that evening, was scrunching her face and rousing from the state of unconsciousness she was brought in. Her face rumpled more and she shot up with a violent sneeze, startling the other two. Bloom was dumbfounded when her eyes came open. Where were those men she had been with? The surprise attacks and gun shots…her eyes were surveying her surrounding and she couldn’t recognize the unfamiliar faces before her. Mrs Jefferson eased her dilemma by speaking to her first, “You were rescued from the ones who held you captive. I know you’re frightened and still yet to come around with what you’ve been through but I assure you, you’re safe now”. It felt…strangely warm and assuring, to listen to the tender words of this woman who had a similar hair color to he

“You’re acquainted with them?” The chatters ceased and Pablo went silent for a moment, recalling it must really be the first time she was seeing Stefano. He nodded, “Yeah, we’re sort of related”. Sergio jumped when he said that and threw an arm round his neck. “Hey, what’s that to mean huh? We’re your older brothers, the only ones you’ll ever have. Stop acting like we’re some pain up your ass”. And the foul language and his uncouth mannerisms…Alexa frowned openly. ‘I’m worried for the upbringing of this child…then again, I’m not the exception myself’ She cackled suddenly, drawing the men’s attention her way. It was a blow to her, to come to the realization she couldn’t not ship herself with the men and she was retreating away in defeat to her iron principles. She entered the ward and shut the door. That was weird, she just cackled to herself and trudged away. What a strange woman. Stefano was also taking his leave, “Every passing second draws her farther from our reach. I’ll give
