THE MAFIA’S CAPTIVE ANGEL

My mind kept wandering around, thinking of who would be responsible for something like this, and only one person’s name came to mind. Luna.

She was the only one I could think of, and I knew how desperate she was. Her obsession with Sin was something anyone could see. She didn’t look like someone who would back off that easily. I’m sure this was all her plan. It has to be her.

I was brought out of my thoughts by the sound of the door opening, and Luca stepped in. He had a worried expression on his face, and when his eyes found mine, it turned into pity. He walked forward, taking a seat on the couch.

“How are you?” He asked worriedly.

“Given everything that has happened this week, I would say it is not good,” I responded blankly.

“I figured. The both of you are a mess; Sin won’t leave his office and keeps drinking himself into stupor, and Samantha told me about how you’ve constantly been crying.”

“Do you also think I cheated on him?” I whispered.

“I have seen the way you are with him; only a fool won’t notice how much you love him.”

“Then I guess that makes your friend one.”

“I guess it does.” It was silent for some time before he spoke again. “Mani, Sin loves you, and he still wants you. I have seen it; after being with him this week, I am scared he will do something irrational!” He paused. “He is still the same old Sin who is crazy about you and who is ready to move heaven and earth just to make sure nothing bad happens to you. He is just hurt; he has every right to be.”

I smiled sadly. “I would never do anything to hurt him, Luca; believe me.”

“I know Mani. I find it strange how Luna came to the office with evidence of you and Jason together just for Sin to walk in on you both. It’s too much of a coincidence.”

I was right after all. It was Luna.

“Can I see the pictures?”

“Sadly, I’m not with them, but don’t worry, I trust you. You’ve got to forgive Sin for not believing you; you know he’s got a huge trust issue, especially after what happened between him and Lorenzo.” I smiled gratefully at him.

“Thanks, Luca; I really appreciate it. It means so much to me that you actually believe me.

“It’s nothing, Mani; there were just too many holes in the story.” He stood up from the couch. “Eat healthy and quit the tears.” He gave me one last look, then made his way out of the room. I heard the sound of her door being locked again from outside, and I let out a sigh.

I just want this phase to be over.

After Luca left, I was able to get some sleep. When I woke up, it was already dark, and I waited for my eyes to get used to the darkness. My eyes wandered round the room, stopping at a figure standing just a foot apart from me; at first, I thought it was Sin, that was until I looked closely and noticed, I had no clue who this man was because his face wasn’t familiar.NôvelDrama.Org content.

A feeling of deja vu slopes in, and I hurriedly rise from the bed.

“Who are you?” I snapped out

The man stepped forward with a gun raised toward me and I panicked when I noticed he wasn’t one of Sin’s men because he didn’t have the tattoo that signified him being a part of Sin’s mafia family. I took slow steps, looking for an escape route, but the more steps I took, the more steps he took as well.

“Move one more time, then you have a bullet attached to that pretty skull of yours.” I stood rooted in my spot.

Who was he?

How did he get in?

He grabbed a hold of my hand, his face coming in front of mine. He had a disgusting-looking scar that moved from his left eye down to his cheekbone. I opened my mouth to let out a scream, but his gun moved from my head to my stomach. “I suggest you think twice before you do anything stupid. You don’t want to end up losing that baby of yours. That would be tragic.

I was surprised by his words-how did he know about my baby?

“No, please. I beg of you.” I sobbed, trying to free my hand from his strong grip.

“I wish I could, sweetheart, but I’m not the one calling the shots.” His hand covered my mouth, and I felt a needle pierce through my neck. Soon everything started spinning, and my body was getting weaker and weaker. My vision became blurry, the next thing I knew, my body fell on his, and I passed out.
