The Mafia's Deadly Devotion- Episode 49&50

 (..Stuck with the mafia boss..)

By; Cherry Love F.

The same scent that could get all her senses snapping and jolting with electric sparks. That one peppermint scent she'd last inhaled four months ago. Then only one person came to her mind.

Angelo!.

Emily quickly began to move, looking for a glimpse of him but he seemed to have disappeared into thin air. After another thirty minutes of searching, Emily sighed disappointedly and decided to go home but the strange thing was that she could feel eyes on herself like she was being watched, yet anytime she turned to look, she wouldn't see anyone.

Emily reached home at past ten, only to meet her whole family pacing to and fro. Laura's eyes lit up the moment she saw Emily and she ran towards her.

"Did something happen?". Emily asked first when Ava dived into her arms.

"Where were you?, We had called Terra and she said you left two hours ago, what if something happened to you?". Brad fumed, holding his head in his hands.

"I....

"Dear, do you know how worried we were?, Even your phone was switched off". Laura uttered.

"I was scared that monster would come and take you away". Ava cried, making Emily frown slightly.

"He's not a monster". She muttered but Laura heard her.

"How many people will you defend that murderer?". Laura snapped. "You're too naive for your own good".

Emily's heart dropped. Feeling a pang of guilt and pent up frustration, she looked down, lowering her voice.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to get you worried. My phone's battery died....and I decided to walk around a bit before coming back". She mumbled.

Brad's expression softened and he walked over to Emily, placing a hand on her shoulder.

"Little em, we were only worried. You know what happened in the past and we shouldn't be taking unnecessary risks". He said and Laura nodded in agreement. 

"I'm very tired, i want to sleep". Emily said.

"Won't you have dinner?". Ava asked.

"I've eaten already". Emily replied and bid them goodnight before going back to her room.

Ava watched her as she left, then turned to brad and laura, settling between them. 

"Something is wrong with mil". She muttered.

"Give her time". Brad urged patting her forehead.

"Yeah......, It's 5 months already". Laura mumbled, then looked up, regaining her cheerfulness. "Don't you worry, baby. I know just what she needs". Laura smiled.

"Chocolates?". Ava raised her brow.

"Don't worry about it dear, just leave it all to me and get some rest, I'll be back". Laura picked up her phone and went inside her room. Ava looked at Brad but he just shrugged.

The next day, the whole mansion was next to empty, only Zade and the rest of the maids were there, meaning he and bluey had the whole time for themselves as they were in his room. Bluey's head on Zade's chest while his fingers were in her hair.

"Why's everywhere empty though?, Where did they all go?". Bluey asked.

"Some sorta mission or something". He shrugged.

"Mission?, Another one?". Bluey raised her brow.

"Yeah. All of them apart from Alyssa though, she's busy sulking, probably with Katherine". 

"You didn't go with them?". 

"You know i can't do that. I'm not part of their clan so it doesn't concern me". Zade mumbled.

"But....

"Shhh, no more questions. Let's use our time together for something...... naughty". He smirked pulling bluey up and interchanging their positions.

* An abandoned warehouse*

Bullets flew in opposite directions, both mafia clans equally skilled. The opposing clan, the Russo brothers and their clan members fired with vigor but the Italian mafia clan was equally unrelenting.

"Where the hell is Angelo?". Bruno gritted, after dodging a bullet.

"He should have been here an hour ago". Kate said.

Carlos and elena stayed silent, shooting and swapping positions drastically.

"I'm getting tired of this run and chase game". The eldest russo brother, Levi sneered.

"They're boring me with their antics". The second eldest, Patrick agreed.

They nodded at their youngest brother and changed their guns to revolvers and began firing madly. Shocking the Italian mafia crew, carlos was the first to recover and he too, began to fire. 

"Perfect f+cking timing". Kate breathed out and all heads turned when Angelo finally came in.

"He's their boss!?". Simone, the last Russo brother asked.

"Sweet!". Patrick grinned maniacally and fired a bullet toward Angelo who smartly dodged it.

"Neh. A f+cking child". Levi rolled his eyes, looking at Angelo. He was actually 35.

Angelo's expression remained neutral as he sized the three up. 

"You're the famous CEO, aren't ya?". Levi asked, a smirk forming on his face.

"Pleasure's all yours". Angelo rolled his eyes, pulling his shirt sleeves up.

"The number 1 mafia king". Simone laughed.

"Wish i knew as half of you as you know me". Angelo uttered. Elena watched with surprise written all over her face.

"Aren't we supposed to take them out?". She turned to Kate and Bruno. Carlos just shrugged.

"Oh boy, you wouldn't wanna know us. We're your worst nightmare". Levi grinned.

"Could be the other way round". Angelo countered.

"Why don't we just join clans then?". Patrick suggested.

"Shut up". Levi glared.

"Let's see what he can do". Levi said and immediately and without warning fired at Angelo. Carlos drew out his gun again but Bruno stopped him.

"What the hell?". He snapped at Bruno.

"Leave them". Bruno said calmly and Carlos looked at Angelo, he didn't hesitate to return the shot but Levi was equally trained so he dodged, they continued in that cycle until Angelo caught him unaware and shot Levi's arm, at the same time, pinning him to the ground with his left leg on Levi's chest, holding him down. His brothers were quick to come to his rescue but he stopped them.

"Impressive". Levi commended and Angelo shrugged and stepped back, offering his hand. Levi took it and stood up.

"Truce?". He asked and Angelo glanced at Carlos who nodded, understanding what he wanted.

"Why did you attack our shipments?". Carlos demanded and Levi shrugged.

"Just looking to steer up trouble". Simone grinned toothily.

"You'll have to pay for the damage". He bargained.

"Whatever". Patrick shrugged.

"Then we call it truce". Carlos finalized and they shook hands.

"I like him. He's cool". Levi gestured to Angelo, who was talking to Kate.

"Just pray you remain on his cool side though, any other and you'll be wishing for death itself". Carlos said seriously.

"Temperamental?". 

"Something like that". 

"Pleasure to make acquaintance". Levi spoke up and Angelo turned with a nod.

"That's so cool, gelo". Elena piped up, hugging Angelo but he pulled back instantly.

"There's no need for that". He said and walked out after a glance at the Russo brothers and their clan members. Elena bit her lips hardly and followed.

* AT NIGHT_8PM

Emily had another late night shift but it wasn't as late as yesterday. She sighed when she felt the presence again and yet saw nothing. She couldn't help the uneasiness she felt though and turned back. Still nothing.

"Is that a lady?". Someone asked from a distance and Emily gulped, speeding up her tracks.

"Yea, sweet man. We gonna have fun tonight, i was getting bored here". Another man said.

"I get hard just thinking about it". 

Another man said and Emily could hear their footsteps approaching.

"Hey beauty". The man that spoke first called and Emily walked even faster.

"Didn't you hear us?". One man yanked her wrist, stopping her in her tracks.

"Let me go please". Emily pleaded. 

"Oh darling, we haven't even done anything yet". The third man chuckled and grabbed her other hand. Emily was surrounded now and a past memory popped in her mind. Except that, then, Angelo had saved her but who would save her now. 

They were four men in total, while two were holding her wrists, one was already touching her face and the other one was just watching them with a smile. Emily screamed loudly and the man watching quickly jumped into action.

"Shit!, Shut the hell up". He yelled, slapping her hardly. Emily winced, her lip bleeding from the impact. 

"Would really hate to disfigure such a pretty face". The man that was holding her face previously was behind her now. "But that's only if you stay silent.....

Then the man suddenly fell silent and seconds later, Emily felt his body weight on her. She along with the other three men froze in horror when the man dropped dead to the ground.

The man who had slapped her earlier seemed to be their boss so he stepped forward.

"W-who's there?". He asked, then one of the men holding Emily's wrist dropped dead on the floor.

The remaining two men looked at themselves skeptically.

"We've made a mistake seeing her". The man holding her other wrist shook.

"Who the hell is she?". The boss thundered.

"Someone you should have never crossed paths with". The shooter answered.

Emily's eyes widened. She knew that voice.

"We're so so so sorry ma'am, please". The man said and his boss glared at him. 

"Kneel". The voice ordered and the man wasted no time to obey. He obliged and knelt in front of Emily who stepped back instinctively.

"What are you doing, spider?". The boss raged but spider ignored him. Still staring at Emily, he tried to talk again but a bullet rammed into his skull and he let out a loud agonizing scream before dropping dead. The boss, Mojo gulped.

"Tell this to your friends who were wondering the same thing. You don't mess with what's mine". The voice said, then two bullets were fired into Mojo's head and chest.

Emily began to feel sick at the sight of the blood. She staggered and a hand slid around her waist protectively, catching her before she fell.

"Angelo?". Emily mumbled faintly and Angelo looked at her, straight in the eye. He was monitoring her movements to make sure she was safe as usual but then Alyssa's call came and he got distracted.

"Why the hell do you get back from work so late?". He thundered angrily.

"It's really you?". Emily whispered.

"I'm f+cking talking...

Emily straightened up and hugged Angelo fully, her head in his chest.

"Don't leave me again. It hurts so much". She mumbled.

And Angelo did what he'd never done before. He hugged her back.

"I never really left, Cucciola".
