Love in Thorns, Guns and Shackles The death of Don Anthony
Leonardo Salvatore dropped some flowers and stood over the freshly covered grave of his father, with a face devoid of emotions. Not like you can tell if there was any, with those eyes hidden under his black sunglasses, a black hat on his bowed head and his hands tucked into his pant pockets.He was dressed in a black shirt which anyone could tell was properly ironed and lined, black pants which were relatively big, like the tailor had intended to give him enough space literally. On top of all that was a very long gray coat that reached his ankles downwards, at least something that wasn’t black.He had these black shiny shoes that had their heads looking up to the sky like they were seeing something fascinating up there, whatever polish he had made use of, it sure was of good quality.Perhaps someone took a trip back to the 90s, or maybe not; I mean, this is Leonardo Salvatore, son of Anthony Salvatore; the dreaded and feared leader of the Major Sicilian Mafia- the Scorpione family.Yo
Love in Thorns, Guns and Shackles The night it began
Elena walked sluggishly to the dining room, she hated having dinner with the whole family and her reasons for that were justified. No young lady would enjoy dinner with a half-drunk father speaking gibberish and a mother calling her irresponsible.So what if she was twenty-two and she had no job? What if she had no boyfriend or fiancé, thanks to her crazy bitchy attitude? Who said you have to be independent by the age of twenty-two? Who said you are late if you aren’t married at that age? Who for God’s sake sets these standards of living? Since when does life have a manual?She hates it when her drunken gambler of a father curses her and wishes he had a rich son instead of a daughter, she hates it when her mother compares her with other young ladies and tells her that she is cursed. It is even worse when her younger siblings no longer look up to her with respect? They just see her as another useless one in the family.But what annoyed her most was her perverted maternal uncle always m
Love in Thorns, Guns and Shackles Invasion
Elena regained consciousness when someone dropped her roughly on the floor; she groaned and forced her eyes open. Her forehead was hurting badly, she looked around and she couldn’t recognize the environment, her sight was a bit blurry.She thought she was alone until she heard a man’s voice. “Capo, the bitch is awake,” the man uttered.“Your mother is the bitch,” she cursed silently inwards and tried to get up.“Right on time,” she heard that familiar voice utter. She turned around and came to face the man that had abducted her.She looked around and noticed that she was surrounded by almost twenty men. “Where did you bring me?” she queried with a puzzled look on her face.“Oh sweetheart, it doesn’t matter, because you are here to stay,” the man uttered and laughed evilly. He tried to caress her face but she pushed him away and wrinkled her nose.“Oh, the bitch is a tough one,” one of the men yelled and they all burst into laughter.“It is your mother who is a bitch!!” Elena fired bac
Love in Thorns, Guns and Shackles The execution
Cain Salvatore was thrown at the feet of Leonardo; they were in a dark room and the only light which was coming in from the small window was being shown on the betrayer; it was called the judgment room.The new Mafia boss stood upright in the dark corner with his face devoid of emotions; there were two other men in the room; Lorenzo- the underboss, and Giovanni- the consigliere.“Gray wizard, wake him up,” Leonardo ordered in a cold voice, referring to Lorenzo with his code name- a mafia thing.He was blunt as usual tonight. But behind that poker face, Lorenzo could tell that he was bottling up his emotions, trying to act like a tough baddie, something that the new underboss doubted that he really was.Lorenzo, who was already holding a bottle of cold water, opened it and poured it on the unconscious man’s face. The water was freezing cold so Cain Salvatore was forced to gasp and sit up.The Don of the Lupi family looked around to identify his location and it dawned on him that he was
Love in Thorns, Guns and Shackles In the house of the Mafia Boss
Elena once again finds herself in the midst of vile men, they had captured her from the previous gang and had forcefully brought her to a new place. She knew what these men were- gangsters, mob, drug dealers, serial killers, thugs and in general, bad men!“Don’t you dare touch me!!” she warned with a finger in the air as one of them tried to touch her arm.They had been teasing and toying with her ever since they brought her in; the whole gang seemed to be in a good mood, perhaps due to the operation that they had carried out. She guessed that it was a successful one.She had no idea why they had attacked her previous kidnappers or what was their beef with the so-called demon, and she didn’t even want to know. All that she wished for was to go home alive.Isn’t it funny that she wants to return to the same place that she despised so much? The home that she always wanted to flee fromElena knew that this was all her dad’s fault, but she did not hate him for it, in fact she was worried
Love in Thorns, Guns and Shackles getting VIP treatment
The gang watched as Elena was taken away by two men, she was not the only one surprised with the sudden VIP treatment she was getting. Was this some sort of game or what? Why did the Boss order that she be taken care of? She didn’t resist however, even though she wasn’t certain that she was safe yet, she just needed to be smart with her moves.“Boss, why did you do that? I don’t mean to question your decision but that isn’t exactly how things work here. She was found in the enemy territory, she should be used and thrown out rather than be given a VIP treatment,” Luca complained.Leonardo frowned and turned to Luca. “I hope you haven’t forgotten your position in this family, Luca? I am the head of the family; you don’t get to question my decisions. Like I said before, if you want to remain a part of this family, then you have to go by the book, and I get to write that book,” he reminded them.Luca bowed. “I am sorry, Boss,” he apologized with an appealing expression on his face.Leonar
Love in Thorns, Guns and Shackles The reporter
Anna Giuseppe stormed towards the elevator, whining and grumbling to herself, with an article in her hand. She was a reporter in Smith Magazine, a national news outlet in the city. She was a not so easy woman, or you could say a young lady- she is just twenty-four.Anna walked into the elevator, just then she saw someone running to catch up with her. “Hey, please hold the door,” the lady said loudly while running.Anna first grumbled to herself before holding the door; she was really in a hurry to lay out her anger on the chief editor- Baron White! He can’t just flunk her paper all the time, it wasn’t acceptable!!The lady caught up and hurried into the elevator, and then Anna pushed the button, closing the Elevator door and up they went.“Thank you,” the lady uttered excitedly and Anna nodded, trying to force up a little smile which was however not convincing enough.“I am Melina,” the lady mentioned and offered her hand for a friendly shake.Anna looked at her with a blunt face, she

She had eventually slept off the previous night, after waiting for long hours, hoping that someone would come to set her free.She wondered what these vile men wanted with her, she had no business with them and neither did her father.
