EMILIOA dangerous smirk formed on my lips. "Now you want to talk? That's good. You were my next target" I played with the gun in my fingers."Yes we did it. I, Homero, Santiago, Paul, Ares and Donny...." he montioned with his head to the first man whom I shot. "We are the ones who tipped you off and also informed those assailants of your next shipment.The rest of the men weren't directly involved but they had hints about the plan. It was all for money capo. Please spare us. Please we beg you. We will never in our entire lives double cross you I swear on my life" Andres, the one who confessed pleaded fervently.The rest of the men concurred with him, their cries echoing round the warehouses. I flashed sly grins at my men. This was now getting interesting."You all are just like hoes! Cheating bastards! Deceitful scoundrels! Is that what it boils down to for you? Sacrificing your integrity and loyalty for mere monetary gain? As if the compensation we provide isn't sufficient?" Luca s
SARAH"Ohh, he's still not picking up," I murmured to myself, frustration evident as I dialed Emilio's number for the umpteenth time. Where did he run off to again? He couldn't even wait until I woke up or dropped me a note!Was it that urgent? I guess this is what I should expect from now on because apparently, I'm with a dangerous don!Was he in danger though? Was he hurt?Could he be in jail or something!?Oh my God! I face palmed myself, "Oh good lord" I groaned out momentarily.My mind conjured the worst scenarios that got my heart pounding at such an incredible rate. I have to stop worrying.Emilio is a freaking Don for crying out loud. He would be able to protect himself that is for sure.I heaved a sigh, descending the stairs and flopping onto one of the couches in the living room. He could have at least left a note, sent a text, or something!I mean who does that? After our eventful dinner date one would have expected that we would be snuggled up in bed by now but I woke up
SARAH"What's happening here?" Emilio's words were measured, his voice carrying a hint of confusion as his gaze swept from my exasperated expression to Grace and then to the curious staffs gathered around us.In an instant, Grace extracted herself from my loosening grip and enveloped Emilio in an embrace which was unreciprocated."Emilio I'm so glad you are home. Can you imagine this thing tried to push me out of your mansion" Grace made emphasis on the 'Your', feigning innocence and pity."I don't even know what I did to her. I only kindly suggested that she do her own laundry from now on and don't add it to my pile of laundry work. She is so insecure. Emilio please talk sense into your maid" Grace added, her voice breaking into fake sobs.I stared at her in blank amazement, robbed of my speech.Certainly Emilio wouldn't believe this rubbish."Is this true Sarah?" Emilio raised me an eyebrow, his voice dangerously low."She has been stepping on my toes for far too long. And I don't wa
THE NEXT DAYEmilio's laughter echoed through the room, a sharp contrast to Sarah's dismay. "I think I just won, Sarah," he chuckled, reveling in his triumph. "Checkmate," he added with unmistakable satisfaction, his voice tinged with triumph."That's not fair" Sarah whined, her lips forming into a pout and her brows deeply creased."And why do you say so amore mio?" Emilio asked with a smirk curling on his lips, enjoying the annoyed expression on Sarah's face."You are so good in this game. That is why you wanted to play with me because you know that I don't know shit about chess. Let us play a different board game I know like scrabble. You'd see that I will win you" Sarah whined more, folding her arms across her chest. Emilio gazed upon her, admiring every intricate curls of her facial features whilst she rambled, unaware of his wistful orbs.Honestly, he wished he could always stay home to spend time with her but as more and more evidences led him and his men towards The Ghost, th
EMILIO"Over the past few months," I began, the cigarette dangling from my lips as wisps of smoke curled into the air with each exhale.My capos were all seated, their gazes fixed on me with various documents scattered all over the rectangular glass table that separated us all.I called this meeting so we could all discuss on our findings so far concerning uncovering the veiled identity of The Ghost and his true intentions."We've been experiencing series of attacks constantly. Now we found out The Ghost, that bastard, is actually someone related to me. Honestly it all sounds bizarre but that is apparently the truth. Through Andres, we were able to track down the location of one his oligarchs. Probably that is where he is also. Alaska. Alessio and Marcello, I want to believe the underbosess under your jurisdictions have being deployed over to Alaska already. Any news?" I asked, leaning back into the chair.Marcello was the first to respond, "Not yet capo. My men are currently combin
SARAH The room was covered in a thick blanket of darkness, the only bit of light faintly illuminating it being the one radiating from my phone as I surfed on the net. I felt so idle these days, like I had nothing doing apart from always expecting Emilio's return from work like a loyal puppy. Emilio made sure I had everything at my disposal, everything I wanted that a woman could ever desire but not his presence.His reoccurring absence in my life was beginning to take a heavy toll on my mental health. It was sickening. He never had my time these days ever since that officer came to search our home.I can tell he has being on the edge since that incident. I'm sure he has been trying his best, working so hard to make sure that incident never repeats itself again.But honestly I miss him so much and his company.I miss how he makes me feel and the way he soothes me, comforting me and being that shoulder I could lean on.He is everything I want in a man and more but this occupation of
Sarah's moans reverberated throughout the room the instant Emilio's lips met hers in a passionate kiss.His body met hers on the bed, pressing tightly against it and not even giving her a chance to think. It was a scorching, fervent and desperate kiss. His fingers explored her skin with a mind of its own, sinking into her and weakening her core. Their tongues moved in sync, the kiss fueling their lustful hunger with each passing second.Emilio sucked on her tongue, exploring every facet of her mouth as Sarah squirmed in delight underneath him, moaning even more into the kiss.She shuddered, the inferno in the pit of her stomach ignited and consuming her with it. His hands trailed towards her thighs and he gripped onto it, forcing it to part open as he crawled in between her.Sarah sank her fingers inside his hair, fisting her fingers into his dark raven locks. She pulled him closer to her, their bodies hauled against each other as she surrendered to his touch. Sarah knew alre
EMILIOIn a tumult of rage and anxiety, I sped towards my casino, SinfulGrove Casino, Sarah's face still haunting my thoughts. I had abandoned her, fleeing without a second glance, leaving her to face another lonely night, the fifth in a row. My frequent disappearances had fractured our relationship, leaving Sarah to wallow in loneliness. Heaven knows I just want to be by her side right now, she must be feeling extremely hurt. She must think I put my work above every other thing including my relationship with her.But that's far from the truth. I love Sarah so deeply, more than any thing in the world. She just won't understand that my hands are tied. If I don't act swiftly and get The Ghost, I am frightened that he would come for Sarah.No.Never. No one touches my woman and goes scot free. I'd burn this fucking city to ashes before that ever happens.I felt my anger exacerbate as I accelerated the speed of the car. This was past 2am right now.These days my anger was always so qui
