DIEGO
As the elevator doors closed I could feel a little smile forming on my face, it had been so long since I had seen her face at least physically. I had just been watching through screens and pictures that my guys delivered to me.There was this feeling in my belly when we stood barely centimeters away from each other it felt like I should reach out and grab her right there and then, I hadn’t felt that way in a while, it was the same thing at the house the other day.When I got to the ground floor of the building I saw the receptionist shoot me a smile and adjust her hair, she had done the same thing when I entered some minutes ago. It’s something I knew I could act on and in a few days she’d be waking up in bed with me but now was not the time for that, I had to be focusing all my efforts on getting back home and to be quite honest since I met Irene again physically I hadn’t been in the mood to be with someone else.I hadRelated chapters

DIEGOI couldn’t shake off the ringing sensation in my ear no matter how much I tried. My head felt like it was about to split through the middle as it rested on the roof of the car. It took a few seconds for my brain to fully process what had happened and accept the fact that we were upside down in the car. We had been run over and I could hear the faint voices of the men talking outside as they seemed to walk towards us. I looked to my front to check on Pietro my driver and it was obvious just by looking that he was in worse shape than I was. “Pietro wake the fuck up.” I shouted while unhooking the seat belt I had on, I was fond of wearing the belt no matter where I sat this might have just been what had saved me from certain death. The belt hook finally came down and I dropped to the roof of the car which was now on the ground, I reached out to where Pietro was and finally realized why he wasn’t answering m

DIEGOMy mind wasn’t fully sure about what had just happened as I struggled to keep my head as low as possible in the backseat with the glass shards that were raining all around me as the bullets went through the back glass. Finally we turned a corner and the bullets stopped flying past us. I looked at my fingers which were still tightly wrapped round the gun and it was visibly shaken, it was a surprise I hadn’t dropped it as I jumped into the car. Just like a switch my mind alerted me that I was in a car, an unknown car, who could have possibly risked their lives to save mine in such a moment as that.“Are you okay back there?” I heard a male voice come from the driver's seat. “I hope there’s nothing hurt. None of those bullets went through you right?” I aimed the gun directly at the seat in front of me as I got up to a sitting position so I could see who was talking to me. The face I saw through the windscree

IRENEI couldn’t help but think of what an idiot I was, I mean I had just made up my mind not to think about him again this was barely 6 hours ago but that was all I could think of for the past 6 hours at work and even now that I was in the cab on my way back home. If I didn’t know better I would have felt this was a spell.The conversation we had kept replaying in my head and everytime it did I analyzed every aspect of it. The words that came out of his mouth, the tone of his voice that soothing baritone voice of his, every slight pause he took in the buildup to what he was about to say. He talked so slowly like the world was at his fingertips and he had no reason to rush because it would slow down for him, I have to admit sometimes it felt like it actually did slow down. Those dark eyes of his were so peculiar I don’t think I have ever seen eyes as dark as those before on any human, coupled with how his gaze bounced off every aspect of yo

IRENEAs I pushed my way into the house trying desperately not to make any noise I couldn’t help but think about the fact that this was how every horror movie went, a suspicious situation that had no business being investigated and then poof just like that, dead. With every step I took my trembling got worse.I remembered I kept two bats in the house, one directly by my bed just in the unlikely event an intruder broke in when I slept in the night I’d at least see something I could use to defend myself with and one just a few steps away from the door. Now that I was in the house I could see it resting on the wall right there in plain sight and I made my way towards it, picking it up and proceeding to the sitting room area where sounds were coming from.The house was structured in such a way that I couldn’t see the sitting room immediately I entered the hall and had to make a turn to the left before I could see anything. As I got closer I coul

IRENEI don’t think I had seen that much blood ever in my life, it looked like it was everywhere. It felt so warm and sticky at the same time and looked so dark red it would have made an excellent color for a red wine if it had been placed in a glass, but then it wasn’t in a glass, it was right there all over the floor board where I knelt and now as I looked at my hands I could see it had covered it to the extent I could not see the lines on my palms anymore.A woman was screaming in the far distance at the top of her lungs, her voice sounded very familiar. I kept looking around to see if I could see who it was but I could not make out who was making the sounds until my eyes met the television, it was at that point I knew or rather it was at that point my brain processed what exactly had just happened and it began replaying it in my head.Coming back in a fit from the store I had been forced to go to get groceries I had decided to give the t

IRENEI slowly came to as I heard voices murmuring in the distance. I was completely wrapped in the room's darkness, and for a brief moment I was unsure of where I was. The ringing at the back of my head felt unbearable and I was struggling to remember exactly what had happened. It all felt like a blur to me but one thing that I was sure of was I had been hit at the back of my head and then I went down. Slowly the memories began to come back to me as my mind began to clear, crashing like a tsunami into my consciousness. In that moment my heart I could feel my body become twice its normal weight and it felt like I was being weighed down by the burden I had felt barely some minutes before I woke up.It dawned on me, a ruthless knowledge that pierced my heart like a blade. I could recall. My good friend's life had been cut short in that residence, and I had seen her lifeless body. Hers and that of her man. Oh dear God, who could have done this to us? Th

IRENEI kept on rotating the gun back and forth between them, my mind racing and coming up with conclusions on its own. I hated this new feeling so much and it was not a situation i liked being in, i turned my attention to Diego now as he stood there in the doorway.“You have always had that fight in you, I should have anticipated this. We both know your heart will not allow you to do anything with that gun so how about you put it down, we can sit down and talk this out ” He said, with somewhat of a smirk on his face.“Why do you say that? You do not even know me, you do not know who I am and you sure as hell do not know what I am capable of.” I snapped at him, the anger evident in my eyes. Who was he to tell me what I would and could not do? “I know you better than you think” he said again, this time his face had taken an extremely serious look. “Just give me the gun Irene.”He was walking towards
THE BROTHERS WHO WANT ME SEVENTEEN
DIEGOI felt the pain before I heard the sound of the gunshot. I knew what had happened but for a brief moment I was in denial. As i looked down to my stomach i kept on thinking to myself There was definitely no way Irene had shot me.Looking down I saw the blood stain gradually begin to grow on my blue shirt exactly where there was a new hole.In that moment my world was blurred with pain as the blood flowed from my stomach, staining my clothes and pooling beneath me. Each breath became a struggle, and it was a fight to maintain consciousness. His vision danced with darkness, the edges of my perception fading into an abyss.I could hear myself utter the words “fuck” as my knees buckled and i fell on them to the ground. The gun slipped out of Irene’s hands as she stood rooted to the spot for a brief moment in shock, looking at her I knew she had not meant to shoot me. I allowed myself to smile at her to at least provide a littl
