Chapter 29 Fully~SophiaThe entire house was busy. I was under the stairs, my hands crossed on my chest as I read my favourite book 'The midsummer night's dream' written by William Shakespeare.I was so into the book and didn't know when Lola crept in as well."Dad has been talking to Uncle L'Angelo ever since." Lola said, snapping me out of my fantasy."Oh. Has he now?" I shrugged and she scoffed."They looked very serious." She added and I nodded as well."And Uncle L'Angelo punched Enzo twice." Fuck! I looked up quickly, my book dropping to the floor."And why the hell would he punch Enzo twice?" I asked and Lola shrugged."I don't know but Enzo tried to fight but Papa held him still. I watched through the peephole.""How did you watch from the peephole?" I gave her a one-sided look and she smiled."Harrieta is calling you. Said something about leaving the house for a few days. I think there's about to be a war." She whispered the l
Chapter 30 Destruction~SophiaI don't know what to call it or what to say but Nicklaus Knight was slowly making his way into my life.Well, it has been a week ever since we arrived at the Old mansion downtown.It was peaceful and relaxing. Ten men were on guard and Nicklaus was one of them. Last night, we had made a cake out of spaghetti and Lola named our new dessert, Spag-lette cake.It was disastrous but we ate it with a smile on our face.Right now, I was seated at the balcony, reading another book from Shakespeare; 'The merchant of Venice.' "If I had known this book would take your whole attention, I wouldn't have given it to you." I chuckled, looking up to see Nicklaus, leaning on the wall, his arms crossed over his chest as he stared at me."I just love this book." I said with a smile on my lips."More than you love me?" He joked."Oh please." I rolled my eyes, flipping another book."Harrieta asked me to let you know that lunch
Chapter 31 Forever~SophiaMy heart skipped a beat as I read the message again and again like I couldn't believe it.A few minutes ago, I could swear on my dead mother's body that L'Angelo would never reach out to me but here was I, my phone on the bed and my eyes dancing around his name boldly written on my phone screen.I picked it up, unlocking it.It was really weird that such a message was making me feel giddy.L'Angelo: "Do you take your gun to school?"Me: "Did you really message because of that? If yes, then I take it to school everyday." I typed back in a flash but waited for a few minutes before sending.I didn't want to look like a bitch in deer light and although I missed L'Angelo Dell Terrore, there was no way I'd let him know that.He asked about a gun. He cares. Maybe just a little but he still does.L'Angelo: "Good, although I have men following you to school. Better safe than sorry." He sent again.My eyes widened and I qui
Chapter 32 Better ~SophiaThe next day in school went on In a flash and it was time for the tests. We had a very important test in Germany and although the teacher had given us enough time to read, it was so hard and damn frustrating and with the whole L'Angelo thing...I was getting fed up."Take your seats. I believe you all know this is just the phase one for this exams. You'll be writing another phase by the end of next week. I want to believe you're all ready and set cause I won't be giving anyone another chance. We'll begin with the attendance list." I sighed, looking around and no sign of Brian. God please by your infinite mercy, let Brian come to school."Brian Dennis?" "Not present, Sir." Someone yelled from the back.."Anyone knows about his problem? He has never missed any class." The teacher asked.Oh! I do know about his problem but I can't talk about it, Sir. Cause if I do..I don't think any of you will come to school to
Chapter 33 Mr Hallow~SophiaI had gone to the mall and then the grocery store. Well, I was going to head to the mall in two days, that was, after getting the money from Enzo tommorow but who knew that the Lord had something cooking up for me.I rounded another rack, grabbing some pastry and dropping them on the trolley. I was so engrossed in my business when I smelled a familiar cologne. A cologne so strong, I looked back and caught the human that has been infiltrating my thoughts for the past days.L'Angelo had a smirk on his face when he rounded the counter and dropped a packet of beef into the trolley."Hey." I could only breath out and and he nodded."Who said you could come out and get these things by yourself?" He asked."Who told you I was here?" I asked. "Ahh! They stalkers of course."He ignored me, walking to the counter to get a packet of chicken."You have a big mouth on you, Sophia L'Angelo. It's going to get you killed." He sn
Chapter 34 Intent~~SophiaL'Angelo was fast asleep and I had to use the opportunity to send a test message to Papa and Enzo so they wouldn't get worried. I was safe and protected."Hello." "Sophia." Enzo's voice was rushed like he had been expecting my call. "Where the hell have you been? Send me your loca... don't worry I'll track you. What's going on?" Enzo rasped."I'm with L'Angelo. Don't worry, he won't-""Why the fuck are you with him again?!"Again."He's sick and i just can't leave him here all alone." "You can't do what shit?!" He chuckled. "Tell me what's going on between they two of you, Sophia? I need answers. What the fuck are you thinking being friends or whatever you think with someone like him?!" "Can you stop judging him? I've never had a say about your relationship with Silvana. You're dragging my best friend into this life and I have never complained about it. L'Angelo is sick, he's a friend to me so I will not le
Chapter 35 Sexy~~SophiaThis was the most brainless and senseless act I had ever done in my whole life.I ruffled my hair and sighed, turning to L'Angelo who was sitting down on the chair, his eyes fixated on his phone like he was expecting a call..We were at his basement at the Red Light Club, i had come to know that L'Angelo was the owner of one of the biggest club there is in New York. How can one man be so freaking wealthy.We were waiting for someone. Someone that would get us tickets to leave this country.Funny, right?L'Angelo had a way to make shit happen. One minute, I was taking care of him and they next minute, he was pulling me with him to Spain. "Why are we here?" I asked, turning to meet his eyes. He wore a lazy smile on his beautiful face, his finger tapping the table slowly as he watched me."Why are my going with you?" I asked again, closing the distance between us as I took the chair opposite the table.."We're le
Chapter 36 Ten~~SophiaI avoided L'ANGELO Dell Terrore the whole day. When it was time for us to leave New York, I got into the car first and sat at the passenger seat, alongside the driver.There was no way I'd sit with him. He could go to hell for all I care and I wouldn't even bat an eye."You can not seat here, Miss." The driver turned out to be a bulky human being, who occupied the whole front seat, leaving me pressed against the passenger door with no space to breath."How.... could, you...say...that?!" I struggled out."You have to go to the back, I can't have you passed out here before we get to the airport." He pleaded.I didn't want to to back. "How come you're the one driving today? You aren't his driver." I hissed. I had seen L'Angelos driver more than thrice and I knew this bulky man wasn't the one."Boss changed us, I don't know why but he made me the driver today. Please, go to the back, Miss. I don't want to crush you
