Elena's POV,
What am I going to do? What if he finds Luca okay, will he kill me? Oh Goodness!!!.
I needed to do something.
"Yes, let check on him. I will talk to you later" I heard him say, his footsteps coming closer.
I needed to hide...
I finally found myself under Luca's bed and I guess it was the perfect place to hide. Just then, I heard the door open slowly and footsteps getting closer.
I heard him hit Luca and maybe he had felt Luca's body and all that, because I heard him sigh.
He walked back and forth, I wondered what he was thinking. Just tgen I heard Luca's voice.
"Nick, you are here. What happened to me"
His voice slow and steady. He must really trust Neo alot. How I wish he can see him for who he is. That Nick is a monster.
"Good morning boss, I came to tell you that Neo and his men have caused trouble"
I could hear his tenor voice echoing the room.
I don't even understand anything, he is here explaining to Luca that, they found Tommy's body and there are investigations going on. But he just wanted him dead minutes ago and now he was strategizing with him.
What is really going on here, because I am f**king losing it.
"Then get the men let's get to action. We need to deal with the issue right now"
He ordered and Nick left after saying yes boss.
He got down from bed and headed to the toilet which was an opportunity for me to sneak out, but I guess I got from the frypan to fire because I ended up in Luca's strong hands.
Once again we were starring at each other like some hero and heroine in a movie. I didn't know what happened to me but for the first time, my heart was fluttering.
"Let me go" I said as I looked up at him.
"Am I holding you" He asked.
"Of course, you are" I said but before I could say another word my back hitted hard on the floor.
Ahhhhh... It hurted alot. This monster wants to kill me slowly. I managed to stand up, following him as he walked round the room.
"How dare you? What if I had broken my back. Would I still be your wife. You fool, I will smack you. I will... I will cut off you head"
I lamented.
"Get out"
He commanded as he took off his shirt.
"Is that what I get after saving your life. You would have been long forgotten by now."
I acknowledged as he threw his stinking shirt at me.
I continued to rant at him until he finally left me and went to bath. That fool!!!
That Nick, I will have to expose him at all cost. He will ruin him. But why do I care, anyway I don't know why I care. I thought as I walked to my room.
**************
I had to do it!!! I really had to, the security was really tight but I manage to get into the boot with them.
I don't know why I feel like, something is going to happen.
As the car came to a halt and Luca with his men had descended the car. I slowly opened the boot and slid out. We were in that same location and this time there seem to be a lot
of people there.
I sneaked behind the car and watched as Nick, Luca and some two hunky men walked up to the scene.
I had taken along with me a scarf and glasses, which I used to disguise myself then I mingled among the crowd.
There was a commotion going on between Luca and the media and according to a man beside me. The inspectors had found evidence against Luca and they weren't ready to let it go even though they knew he was a son of the mafia king.
Some men were trying to fight with him but his hunky men were stopping them. Then suddenly I noticed something, everyone in that gathering were all men and I identified three out of them to be Neo's men.
Something wasn't right here. Nick had a pord on his ear and he was nodding along which meant something was cooking.
They were trying to set up Luca, but why.
Well, am I asking myself that question when I know very well that Neo wanted to take Luca's place in the mafia throne.
Just as I realized the whole thing was a set up, I saw a man pointing his gun from a far and it was facing Luca's direction.
Oh Goodness!!! They were going to kill him. I needed to save him. I needed to do something.
Just as the bullet was shot, I immediately pushed Luca away and suddenly... Suddenly, the bullet hitted my hand.
I couldn't see anything, my eyes was getting blurry and I was losing my mind slowly.
Was I going to die?
Oh Goodness!!! Please save me, then I could hear different bullet and footsteps of people running away. Now I get it that when Nick realized Luca didn't die, he came up with that horrible plan to kill Luca.
I was trying to call out to Luca but I was now seeing darkness. I was now in the underworld.
*********
The sudden footsteps broke me away from darkness. And to my surprise, it was Luca starring at me with worried expression. Then just as I turned my gaze it fell on Nick who was fuming at me angrily.
I had ruined his plan, so what should I expect.
I slowly opened my eyes and just then Luca hugged me.
"You are finally awake"
He said as he cupped my face.
"Luca..."
I slowly said.
"Are you alright"
I held his hands.
"Of course, I am alright thanks to you"
He said then just then Nick shot me a dangerous gaze which sent fear over my body.
I needed to tell Luca about Nick, as soon as possible. I needed to tell him.
Minutes later, Luca told Nick to get me something to eat and I thought of that as an opportunity to tell Luca.
Just as I thought he had gone, he appeared from behind the door.
" A young girl was about to tell the truth but just let her bear in mind that he friend is in their captive"
He said and left, leaving me and Luca in a puzzled state.
What did he mean by that? Was he referring to me? What was he trying to say?
Then just then I understood what he meant.
Oh Goodness!!! This monster has...
