Elena's POV,
I was getting so bored of just laying on the bed, so I decided to go to Luca's room and check for the mafia rule book, I had seen before. Maybe I will be able to get the evidence and escape before he and Nick came back.
I managed to enter his room, found the book and was flipping through the pages.
It contained more about how the Italian started the mafia empire, it also showed some of the former rulers in the mafia empire.
I don't think it had anything I wanted, so I decided to return it and go through his wardrobes and drawer. But to my surprise again, there was no tangible evidence.
"How am I going to expose this man and his evil crimes? He killed my innocent father and I will make sure I destroy him"
I thought as water dropped down my face.
This wasn't just an ordinary criminal, he was a dangerous criminal. Who goes around different places, killing innocent people and trafficking things.
I turned to leave when I heard footsteps getting closer.
Oh Goodness!!! I needed to hide. I needed to hide somewhere and as usual I hid under his bed.
Just then someone entered, which I recognized to be Luca. He came in breathing angrily and throwing things around. I was so scared as I hid under the bed, because he seemed so angry and if he finds me here, I will be done for.
Just then another footstep joined him, and I recognized that to be Nick.
"I am sorry, boss. I didn't mean to give the box to him but he forced me by threatening to kill you"
"You are aware of how much money and trust we could lose because of you... My dad was supposed to sell the package to Hally Mount the mid boss from Italy, but now he is going to lose his biggest customer and that too because of you" He gave a confused sigh.
"When I was on my way to give your dad the box, Neo and his men crossed me and collected the box from me"
"If that is true, then what were you doing with him today. Why were you talking to him? And why didn't you tell me since"
He asked curiously.
I wasn't able to see their expression, but I was sure he was really angry.
"Hmm... Hmm, I was trying to negotiate with him."
"What do you mean?"
"I threatened him to back off, but still he didn't listen. I was trying to save you, boss"
"You were trying to save me. Then why did he bring the box with him. At least, that was how I knew it was with him. "
" Well, I don't know about that sir. Maybe, he was on his why to sell it"
" Sell it, then we have to stop him. If he manages to get to Hally Mount before us, then it will favor him and my father will lose his respect" I heard him say, ready to leave but it seemed Nick pulled him back.
" Hmm, sir, what if he kills you "
" I am not f**king afraid of that monster. Okay"
He said and finally left.
I could see Nick pacing around the spot, I am sure he was thinking of what to do.
"Hello ma'am"
He said, I think someone must have called him.
-But why "ma'am" and not "sir".
"She is still here, you don't have to worry and about the money, I have paid them the money."
He said, who was he talking to and 'she', was he referring to me.
But why? What do they want from me again.
Just then another call entered his phone.
"Hello boss, Luca is on his way. You need to kill him, and make sure he doesn't get the package"
He said and hanged up.
I really need to tell Luca about this guy and immediately. He wasn't someone to be trusted. He was telling someone about me, not long, but why? Who was he talking to?
He ran out of the room and I used that opportunity to leave the room. Where ever, they were going. I need to get to Luca and warn him.
I went through the secret room, I use to get out of the house and managed to see Luca alone beside the car.
This was my only opportunity to tell him, or he won't return to this house and I won't get my revenge.
"Luca..."
I shouted as I ran to stop him, he turned to face me wondering what I was all about.
"What happened?"
He asked and as I was about to talk, Nick came from behind and pulled me.
"How did you come out of the house? Don't forget you are held captive in here and you can't be going out anyhow "
He said pulling me angrily.
He must have realized I was about to tell Luca about him.
"Come with me"
"No, I want to talk to Luca. Let me go. I said let me go."
I was about to bite him, when he slapped me so hard.
"You are a slave in this house. A nobody, just staying here for two weeks. Once, my boss becomes the king. He will marry a better wife and you will be long gone"
He said and pulled me away. I looked at Luca expecting his sympathy, but I had forgotten he was the monster who killed my father.
He was the man, who took away my happiness. Was I really trying to save him? I was completely out of my senses to think of that.
Nick pulled me into my room and slapped me again.
"You were going to tell him, huh... You were going to tell him, if you dare I will kill you and your stupid friend."
Then I remembered Sarah. Where was she? How did he know her? Where did he find her? I thought and I managed to say it out.
"You want to know, how I caught you stupid friend. Then wait till I get back, I will give you all the details. But remember, if you dare try anything funny. I will be your worst nightmare"
He said moving backwards, then closed the door behind him.
I really miss my Sarah, how was she doing? What if Nick was telling the truth, that he has her. Then omg!!!
There must be fire on the mountain, by now...
Third party's POV,
Outside, the mafia empire, sat Derek Dains and Nina Gardom, who were romancing each other.
"I told you I will serve you better than anyone"
Nina said as she played with Derek's beard.
"You were really good, I must say"
He said and just then a call entered his phone, it was Hally Mount.
He picked the call, adjusting himself while Nina leaned on him.
"Hello Hally"
"Hello Derek, I will be in New york soon. Hope the package is ready"
Derek immediately leaned back anxiously.
Hally Mount was coming, then that was trouble. Where was Luca? What was he going to do? He thought as he remained silent.
"Are you still there, Derek."
The strong masculine voice sounded from the other end.
" Hmm, yes. It is ready, you don't have to worry "
He said giving a fake laugh.
" Okay then, see you soon"
Hally said abd hanged up.
Derek stood up immediately pacing around, he needed to call Luca. As he was pacing around, Nina was wondering what happened to him.
" Are yoz okay, baby"
" Of course, I am "
He said as he bursted out cold sweat.
He was going to be ruined, if Hally arrived and the package wasn't ready. He was going to have problem with the headquarters and that was going to destroy him.
He finally dialed Luca number and thankfully he picked the call.
"Hello, dad"
"Luca, were are you. Hally is on his way and you know there will be trouble, if we don't get him the package"
Derek said as he paced around with Nina behind him, trying to understand what was going on.
Nina was twice younger than Derek and was also his sugar baby. She had been with him for so long, even before he husband death, she had been having an affair with him and her husband's death was a great opportunity for her to make the secret relationship official. And ever since she had been with him, she knew the nature of his business.
"Be fast, Son. My life depends on you know"
He said and hanged up, finally calming down especially when his son had told him, he would handle everything.
Will Luca be able to get the package from Neo?
