Severino kept laughing at Michelangelo after they left Renata’s office. Idiot Michelangelo ran away from them to meet Renata and spend time with her alone and then she pulled that prank on him. She sent her team inside and made them give a presentation to Michelangelo. “Okay, shut up!” scolded Michelangelo. “I am sorry, that was funny,” laughed Severino. “On a serious note, what is your relationship with that girl?” asked Vicktor. “What? There is no relationship!” Michelangelo was defensive. “Michel! Do you want a relationship?” asked Vicktor. “Don’t tell anyone but I am not sure. Some part of me wants everything to do with her and other parts want nothing to do with her for her own safety. I don’t want her to get involved in the mafia world. Her world is too different,” said Michelangelo. “Then you must stay away from her. Now that Yoshiro knows you are somehow related to her, stay away from her,” said Vicktor. “That is the problem, Vik, I don’t want to stay away but at the sa

While Michelangelo was busy flirting with Renata, Vicktor was busy trying to figure out who was behind the attacks. Stephan was cross-checking every man in his Odal book and trying to figure out who bought those men. Were they bought by a single entity or different people? Was the attack done by a single faction or was it a group effort? As per Michelangelo’s suggestions, the photographs of the men were altered to look like their childhood pics. Stephan and Vicktor were cross-checking with every Odal. They had to start looking for their files from the beginning. No one knew which year they might find the boys’ pictures. Stephan talked to every Consigliere, and no one had any clue who attacked the nominees. Everyone swore that their Cosca had nothing to do with the attacks. If no one from the Cosca had anything to do with the attacks, then who attacked the nominees, and that too with the help of Odals? Someone was fishy about this matter and Stephan had to find it out. Year by year e

“What? What?? What is happening?” Severino came running as Michelangelo shouted.“Girls! Yoshiro! At their place!” shouted Michelangelo from his room. Soon he was out wearing a white shirt with black trousers. He hid his gun under his jacket and grabbed a brass knuckle from his arsenal.In the meantime, Severino called up everyone who could reach Renata’s home quickly and gave them her address. He told them to be loaded with guns and ammunition. He even called up his guards at Renata’s residence, but no one was picking up. It meant real trouble.Severino too ran and changed his clothes. He grabbed his guns and placed them both under his jacket. He then grabbed his favourite weapon, a baseball bat with nails sticking out of the head.Both ran to the SUV and Michelangelo kept looking at the phone’s screen to see what his camera would catch.“No! No! No! No!!!” he shouted at the top of his lungs wh

Renata grabbed Michelangelo’s hand and caressed it softly. Michelangelo was angry at Yoshiro, but the moment Renata touched him, he melted. His anger went out the window and he sweetly looked at Renata who was caressing his hands. Michelangelo looked at his hand, the brass knuckles had bruised his hands as well. There were a few cuts too. “I am fine,” said Michelangelo. “No, you are not. You are hurt. You are hurt because of us,” said Renata with tears in her eyes. “Are you kidding me? You are hurt because of me,” said Michelangelo and touched her cheeks carefully. He didn’t want to hurt her even more. Yet she flinched with pain. “Girls! Are you alright?” asked Michelangelo. All nodded at him. They were too shocked to speak. “Sev! Take care of them. I will deal with him,” said Michelangelo and grabbed Yoshiro by his hair. “But your hand…” protested Renata. “I will take care of it, I promise,” he softly placed the back of his hand on her cheek and caressed it again. “You have to

Michelangelo didn’t want to know what Tikhon was going to do with Yoshiro. He had no interest in that. He only wanted to race back to his girl. He had no concern for Yoshiro or Tikhon, he only had concern for Renata and her injuries. He saw with his own eyes how Yoshiro treated her. He wanted to give her his shoulder to cry on. He moved towards his car and took half his team with him. The rest of the team was taking care of Yoshiro’s goons. They too had to face the wrath of Tikhon with their master, Yoshiro. Michelangelo soon reached Renata’s house where he saw Severino taking care of the girls, and everyone was patched up. Police were still there trying to get statements from everyone. The girls knew only about the assault and not the killings. They were too distraught after they heard that Yoshiro killed every guard. Valentina was sobbing on Hazel’s shoulder and talking with the police. “Everyone out!” commanded Michelangelo. All looked at him and within seconds the house was emp
