Chapter 4 - MEETING EDEN

The sound of their beating heart could be heard. The guns were pointing at their head and they seems to be only one in the van

They couldn't move..... They stood still and somehow, they found the atmosphere suffocating or maybe it's because of the situation they were in

Bluey kept gulping down

She was scared. Lots of thought kept popping into her head

"what about mum" She thought

"how is she gonna take the news? "

"will she ever found out I was taken"

" Will I be killed "

"I'm never gonna see mum again "She mumbled and hiccups

On the second hand, Arianna was quite

"so I'm gonna meet the Mafia lord"

"I'm gonna confirmed if the rumours are true"

"what does he really looks like"

"will he fall for me like that of the movies? "She thought and chuckled

"I'm really gonna be a mafia girl "She thought and smile widely

"Mum I'm gonna miss you. Dad I'll miss you too but your princess wouldn't end up like those girls killed . I'm gonna come back with the love of my life " Arianna muttered under her breath

Bluey on the other hand stared at the both men beside them from the corner of her eyes

She blinked her eyes severally trying to figure out a route of escape

"I want to urinate "She uttered pouting out her lip

The men gave deaf ears as the van kept driving down the lonely road

She faced the man on her left

"I want to urinate..... Do you want me to do it here??..... I bet you won't survive the odour"Bluey uttered

"just shut up! "The man growled

"lip zipped but I'm doing it here"she said

"3....2....1"

"stop!! "The man shouted

"stop the van!! "The man shouted

He pushed the door opened and came out

"come down "He ordered and Bluey came out.

"watch over her"He said to the other man as he pointed at Arianna

"not like am gonna ran away"Arianns rolled her eyes

Bluey walked deep into the bush

Yeah! the man was behind her and from the corner of her eyes, she could see him pointing the gun at her head

"try anything stupid and I'm gonna blow off your head"The man said and she swallowed hard

"you can turn around now... Don't tell me you wanna watch me urinate"She muttered

"just shut the shit and do the needful "The man said and turned

He waited for five minutes

"aren't you done??"He asked but got no response

"speak when I talk to you"He said and turned almost immediately

His mouth went agape when he couldn't find her

"fuck!! She played me! "He said and hit the gun on his forehead but he regretted it immediately as he winces in pains

"she's gonna pay! "He uttered and rushed deep into the bush

The night surface and surely Bluey knew it was getting dark. She kept running not looking back

After she had run a far distance away, she decided to take a break and rest for a while. She was beginning to feel the pains under her feet, they burnt like hell.

Yeah! In the course of running, she had removed her shoes

The weather was becoming dark and cold. Again, she continued to run but will stop if she notice her breath was becoming so hard.

Bluey stood confused not knowing what to do.There were four pathways and she doesn't know which to follow.

She decided to take the straight road when she heard a voice . She quickly went into a corner to hide, waiting to see who it was coming.

Then she saw a little boy. Maybe ten years she thought.

"I know you're in there. Come out..... Aren't gonna hurt you" He said and Bluey rolled her eyes

"he's just a little kid" She thought but on the otherhand what if he was a step up

"Nope"She shook her head and came out

"I know you will come out"He said and smile

"not like I have a choice "She replied and sat down feeling exhausted

"you're hiding from someone "The little boy asked as he sat on the wet grass

"yes"She replied and yawned. She was feeling tired and hungry

"here seems dangerous for you. You shouldn't be here"The little boy said and Bluey raised her brows

"you're the one who shouldn't be here. A little boy in a bush. Beside Where's your papa and mama" Bluey asked

"I don't have a mama. I have a papa but I don't stay with him. I stay with Granny"He replied

"That's bad... why don't you stay with Papa"Bluey asked

"He said its dangerous but papa do visit me everyday. Let's forget about me. You should leave here soon. It's more danger at night"He said making Bluey chuckled

"you speak like an adult. How old are you? "She asked

"I'm four years old" he replied and removed his bag from his back

He opened it and brought out pizza

"Pizza "BLUEY whispered as her eyes almost pulled out of its socket. Her mouth became wettery just staring at it

"I know you're hungry..... Dad bought it the last time he came to visit granny and me. You can have it" He replied handling it to Bluey

"Thank you... erm... "She stuttered

"it's Eden and you're?? "Eden asked

"I'm Bluey "She replied. She took the pizza from him and started feasting on it hungrily

"Easy.... "Eden muttered taking an handkerchief from his bag

He knelt know so he could be able to touch Bluey face

"Easy.... "He muttered again wiping the stain of food from the corner of her mouth

His fingers slightly touched her lip. Bluey shivered

She felt a weird feelings and connection . She looked up and stared at his cute eyes.....those dark brown eyes

"you're handsome "She said and he smirked

"just like Papa "He grinned and Bluey couldn't help but giggle

"He is here" He said suddenly

" who?? " Bluey asked confused

"no time aunt Bluey " he said and held her hand

They both started running

They kept running deep and deep into the bush

Bluey slipped and tumbled down the hill, landing her head against a stone.

"Aunt Bluey! "Eden screamed

She groaned, rubbing her forehead. She stood to continue only to fall down

Her legs hurt

"Eden go.. go without me!! "She yelled

"Aunt Bluey I'm not gonna leave you here. Come with me I know a route to get out of here"He said trying to raised her up but it was fruitless

"don't be stubborn Eden.... It's nice spending time with you but you're gonna make Aunt Bluey sad if you don't leave right away... Please Eden. You know Granny and Papa will be worried if anything happens to you..... Please "She begged

Surprisingly, tears drop off his eyes

He crouched down and peck her forehead

"Bye Aunt Bluey "He said . He stood up and ran into the bush

"I will miss him"Bluey whispered

"finally found you! "A voice said behind her making her shrieked in fright

She turned to see him. She blinked severally but he was still there

"you think you can run!! "

He held her throat tight, frowning at the rolls of blood that fell out of her forehead.

She struggled to let go but his grip was way too stronger than her effort.

" Where do you think you're going to? " He angrily asked, folding his fist tighter around her neck.

." I just wanna go home, I don't wanna be here" She bursted out in tears.

He smirked and let go of her neck

" since you're stubborn.... I got no choice than to do this"He replied and brought out a handkerchief. She sniffled it and blank out

THE MAFIA CLAN*******

Bluey woke up with an headache.

She held her head and groaned

"mum!! "She called standing up

But surprisingly, she found herself in a strange room

She stared surprised at her new environment, stepping out of the bed.

She stared down out of the window, the huge breeze which blew on her face

" What the heck is this place? " she thought, " How did I get here? "

Her head hurt the most and when she touched it, age groaned

She tried to remember how she got here

And when she did, she gasped

"hey lazy ass you're awake " Bluey quickly turned immediately she heard the voice

She saw a girl.... A towel was tied firmly on her chest. She studied her and her eyes widened

"What is that "Bluey asked

"What?? "The girl asked confused

"Are you the owner of that behind you.... I mean your ass?"Bluey asked

Yeah! She thought she got it all but staring at this girl right now, she doubt

"you're funny!! "She said

"Anyway you need to get ready. It's almost time for training " She said

"what training and who are you " Bluey asked

"I'm Jenna and I'm gonna be sharing my room with you. I know you will be wondering where you are. Well this is the Mafia clan. You were brought in here last night . You look so unconscious... But glad you're finally awake after some treatment " Jenna ranted

"I can't believe I have been captured. Mum and Draco. Mum how is she gonna take it"Bluey said sadly sitting on the bed

"lazy ass ,,this is another life for you. I l came here just a week ago and I have learnt alot. No one wishes to be here. I mean who will wish to be here just to get killed after four years..... Absolutely no one. I had families too but I guessed another life had begins for me..... To last longer here you need to avoid the Boss. When he's angry, he kills anyone just to quench his anger" Jenna said

"hmm"Bluey hummed

"I should get dressed..... Stay right here. You need to know the rules before leaving this room "She said and Bluey nodded

Jenna dashed into the bathroom and Bluey shrugged

She smiled as her mind flashed back to the little boy she saw yesterday

"he's cute"She muttered and stood up from the bed

She quietly sneaked out of the room, heading through the hallway.

"wow" she exclaimed seeing the beauty of the hallway

She tip toed step after step, trying not to cause a sound.

Everywhere was as quiet as a cemetery, a sneeze alone can get everyone's attention. And that's actually what she's avoiding.

Then, she started hearing some sound from a room. She traced her gazed

She gulped down when she saw a door slightly open

On their own accord, her feet moved. Curiosity got the best part of her as she opened the door widely

And then she saw his back view

He was training aggressively with a sword,he was all sweaty but the sweat dripping from his hair down his backbone made him look hot

Bluey couldn't help but moved towards him

"Wait! what am I even doing "

She smashed her head

She really want to stop now that he wasn't oblivious of her presence

But an unknown spirit kept pushing her to move forward and she obliged

Suddenly he turned.....

Her eyes traveled from his toe to his face.

She gasped and staggered and when she tried to moved backward, she limp

Her eyes widened still staring at his face and the same time, she felt the urge to pass out
