She pulled her skirt trying to cover her flesh perfectly before grabbing the delivery box and making her way inside.
DropDead Casino was a famous hangout space for filthy men who come to squander money and also meet with little chicks, it was owned by the greatest mafia lord in the country.
The place was furnished lavishly, and even the elevators were lined with gold and silver. Sophia simply held the box and did not let her eyes wander.
The elevator stopped on the second floor with a ‘ding’. She walked out and quickly noticed this hall was not the same as the one downstairs which was filled with drunk men scattering money over seeds.
Here, it was calm and had closed rooms. She did not expect less from a Casino as such, it was made for naughty and dirty men so a room for their dirty activities was needed.
Even before she could come back to her senses, there were already licentious and fevered moans of men and women coming from each of the rooms. She curled her lips up in disgust as she retracted her phone to dial her client's number as there was no way she was going any further.
Before she could dial the number, she heard footsteps from behind her and quickly turned.
“You are late.” The man stood tall and had a disgusting smile. Two seconds later, she replied hesitantly.
“Tony”
Sophia was startled as she never expected to meet him ever again, not after she sent him to jail for harassment.The man standing there was tall, with short hair. He wore a white shirt and black jeans, and under the glow of the corridor light, his face was filled with hatred and lust.
Sophia’s face instantly went cold when she finally understood what was happening, Tony had used an anonymous number to order from their company and he specifically ordered for her to deliver the product.
“How dare you!” Sophia said and clenched her fist tightly.
“Is this the way to say hello to your husband?” he sneered “Ex-husband” Sophia corrected.
“You look even hotter when angry, and guess what? I get aroused real fast” Every word he uttered made Sophia feel like vomiting, but she had to escape from this situation first.
“Jail didn’t teach you any lesson” She turned to leave when Tony pulled her back and then pushed her to the wall, she felt an excruciating pain well up to her head as tears rolled down her cheeks.
“You thought you already got rid of me? I told you this wasn’t over” he crouched and held her neck tightly, she found it hard to breathe and kept pushing him away but didn’t succeed. “Leave…me” She struggled and said few words but Tony’s eyes were filled with lust and hatred. This was the same look he had whenever he attempted to flog the hell out of her, those painful memories came rushing to her.
“You, me, and my daughter will be together again. You hear me?” he asked and she shook her head in denial as she struggled to speak “I do..rather die”
Tony got angry and slapped her hard across the face, Sophia felt her head spin as her vision became blurred, there was no one to help her, and she was no match for Tony.
Unexpectedly, as she was about to lose hope, her sight was met with a pair of deep and dangerous eyes. They belonged to a man in a dark suit. He had a tall and straight figure, rough short hair, and eyes as deep as a bottomless sea of stars.
In the back of her mind, she thought he looked familiar.
“I need space” his cold voice echoed from behind as the corridor was blocked by them, Tony turned to see the owner of the voice but instead he trembled to see the man, they were two men.
One was Luca Greco, the rude mafia lord who returned to the country yesterday with his three sisters. He was feared by everyone because of his merciless attitude and also the fact that he had the law by his side.
The other man standing a few inches behind him was Marco Santoro, he was known as the ‘Spin man’. He was Luca’s, trusted man.
Tony nodded and used his legs to push Sophia out of the way, he bowed his head slightly and waited for Luca to pass. But instead, Luca’s gaze landed on the fragile lady.
He took a proper look at her and glared at Marco who understood what he wanted.
“I will take it from here,” Marco said to Tony who didn’t understand his words, Luca was known as someone who never puts his nose where it doesn’t belong. So why will his man suddenly want to interfere?
“But…”
“Do you have a problem with that, Mr. Moretti?” Marco butted in and Tony knew better than to go against Luca.
He took a final glance at Sophia who looked miserable on the floor, with a dejected look he finally left.
Luca didn’t stay for long, he clenched his fist and hurried away. Seeing that young lady brought back the memories he had buried deep in his mind.
He could recognize her everywhere.
Sophia gathered her strength and stood up quickly “What do you need in return? I will pay back” she blurted, she had learned never to trust men as they never do anything for free.
Marco shook his head in amusement, his boss had everything ranging from money to women. Just because he helped this lady, doesn’t mean he wants her.
“You are ungrateful,” Marco said before following Luca, Sophia watched them leave and her mind was a mess, what if Tony was waiting for her downstairs? She was too weak to bump into him again so there was no way she will take that risk.
With that thought in mind, she rushed down the corridor and found the lady's restroom, she walked in and closed it from inside before retracting her phone to dial her friend’s number.
She thought of calling her best friend Laura but it was not right for her to call a lady to come to her rescue as she might endanger herself by walking into this casino, so she called her brother, Carlo, but he didn’t pick.
Sophia was at a loss of what to do, then there was a knock on the door “Miss Russo, two guards are here to take you home” the lady from outside said, Sophia was confused, how did they know her name and why will anyone send guards to take her home?
Sophia lingered at the door for a few minutes, wondering if Tony had sent the guards to bring her. She had to be cautious.“Miss, please come out quickly. They are men sent by Mr. Santoro,” the lady said, and Sophia hesitated for a moment. Tony’s last name was Moretti, so who was this Mr. Santoro? She had to leave this place somehow, so she decided to trust her instincts and finally walked out.A hostess stood there with an elegant smile, and behind her were two security men. Their uniform had the logo ‘DD’, which signified that they were workers there.“They will take you home safely. No need to worry,” the hostess assured her, and Sophia nodded, having decided to trust her instincts. There was no turning back.---Luca arrived at the hotel room where he planned to have some fun, but he was no longer in the mood after he crossed paths with the lady from the corridor.“Leave,” he ordered the half-naked woman on his bed, and she got confused but quickly left the room. Marco walked in a
Sophia was in tears as she was about to run to her brother, but she was stopped by the driver who brought her. "Let him go! How dare you guys do this to my brother?" she struggled to push the man away, but her strength was light."Leave my sister," Carlo scolded, his face covered in blood.Upstairs stood two men who watched the scene for a while before deciding to come downstairs.“Please have mercy, please….” Carlo pleaded, he knew his fate depended on this man but he never meant to betray him. "Make him shut up," Marco ordered the men, who nodded before placing a cloth around Carlo's mouth.Sophia was in a state of shock. These were the two men who helped her yesterday. Why did they hurt her brother and forcefully bring her here?"Spin," Luca ordered, and Carlo's eyes widened in shock. He was a man, and every man in this country knew what it meant for Luca Greco to say "spin."Countless tears rolled down his cheek as he stared at his sister. This might be the last time they would s
Sofia Russo dashed into the elevator, running late for work, she also needed to give a reasonable explanation why she didn’t show up for work yesterday, but the guards were aware. But as soon as the doors closed, she found herself face-to-face with the notorious mafia don, Luca Greco. Her heart raced as he pulled her closer, his smoldering gaze sending shivers down her spine.Suddenly, he whispered in her ear, "Two minutes before the elevator stops. Enough time for a quickie." Sofia was taken aback, disgusted by his brazen proposition. She tried to push him away, but he was too powerful.“Disgusting” she blurted."Sofia Russo," the words rolled off the tongue of the infamous mafia don, Luca Greco, as he pulled her closer, his smoldering gaze locked onto hers. "Ex-husband Tony Moretti. Has a seven-year-old daughter, Isabella." Sofia's heart raced as she realized this man knew more about her than she'd ever imagined."Give me a chance, sweetheart," Luca demanded, his voice silky smooth.
It was evening and Sophia asked Laura to spend the night with Isabella again and she accepted, she wore a simple red gown while waiting for her brothers. “Can you bring me pictures of Luca?” Laura asked and she rolled her eyes. “Why will I do that?” she sneered when there was a knock on the door. Sophia opened the door and found Damon standing there dressed in a blue shirt and jeans “Brother” she called with a nervous smile.“Where is Carlo? I prefer he doesn’t come along” Damon said, he knew his younger brother was thirsty for power and he was also someone who idolizes gangsters. “I also think so,” Sophia said, she had not yet told Damon about the incident at Luca’s place where Carlo almost lost his life. “Damon” Laura walked towards him with a shy smile, her face was completely red when she saw his gaze was stuck on her “Laura” he called and Isabella rushed towards them. “There Is a spark, right Mother?” she asked and Sophia laughed hard while Laura pulled her cheeks. “What do
Sophia quickly retracted her phone from the water and had an embarrassed look, did she just say that loud in front of Luca? How she wished the ground will open for her to hide in. “What now baby?” Luca asked with a smile as he held his belt. Sophia swallowed hard “I should leave,” she said nervously. “Let’s have a drink first” his tone was demanding and Sophia found this as an opportunity to know how Luca came to know about her stammering as a kid. “Mr. Russo, about…my..my way of talking. How did you know?” she stuttered and Luca’s gaze never left her. “I am Luca Greco, I know everything”“So you know about everyone in Italy?” “No, I know only about those I find interest in,” he said and Sophia could feel her heartbeat accelerate, she had to escape. “I also like it when people appreciate my help, so think of a good way to appreciate me for helping you at the casino. If not I will decide how you should” Sophia frowned, she was right that men never do anything for free. What was s
Luca blew the smoke off his gun and Marco hurried towards him, he walked and glared at Sophia then the man on the floor.“My bullet missed,” he said and they were all confused, did he want to shoot Damon or did he want to kill Micheal but it took just his thighs? And this was Luca, his bullet doesn’t miss.Damon frowned and held Sophia’s hands before leaving the party, when a gangster shoots a gun then it only means there will be trouble.“Now the party can start,” Luca said as he walked towards a couch, Micheal stared at him angrily but he knew he couldn’t say anything now. Luca embarrassed him in front of that stupid cops.He was more surprised when Luca's men walked towards him “We will clean your injury” they said and he had a sneer. Is this Luca’s style? He gives you an injury then treats you.Meanwhile…Carlo was done having fun with Jessica, he saw the scene earlier and was about to go save his sister from Micheal but he saw Luca arrive and he wanted to know how he will resolve
Sophia got a call from Marco later, she was given a location to come pick her daughter up. She took a cab and hurried there, it was on a private beach and was surrounded by guards. Isabella sat with Luca and she had a bright smile as she ate cake and there were more snacks on the table “Bella” Sophia hurried towards her and hugged her. “Are you okay?” she scanned her and saw that she was perfectly well and even eating a cake. “Mother, your friend is so kind,” Bella said and Sophia frowned before glancing at Luca. “You wanted to learn how to swim right? Marco will take you” Luca said and she nodded happily. Sophia held her tightly, she didn’t let her go “Mother” She called out and Sophia stared at Marco and then her daughter.“Be careful, okay” she said worriedly and her daughter nodded before leaving with Marco. “What do you want? You abducted my daughter from school just because I refused to follow you?” “Isn't that romantic?” Luca asked and this made Sophia angrier. “What do y
Angelina(Lina) hurried downstairs with her phone, her sister Valentina(Tina) was having coffee when she saw Lina hurry down.“Camille” Lina said before showing her phone to Tina, she saw the photo where Camille was handcuffed by the police.“What did she do?” Tina asked surprised, they didn’t even know that she left the house. Just then, they heard a car drive in and immediately knew it was Luca so they hurried to the door.Luca walked out of the car and saw the worried looks on his sister’s face. “Luca, have you seen this?” Lina showed the picture to him.He had a frown, Damon arrested his sister. He had so much guts to arrest his sister. He could kill anyone who dares to mess with any of his sisters, and Camille was fragile. She has never been to a place as dirty as a prison cell.“Marco” he called angrily, Marco hurried towards him and he whispered some words to him.“Lina, go to the station” Luca ordered and walked in. Lina nodded and got into the car when Tina followed her. “I wa
