Revenge of the Mafias |Z.D.H.|

Chapter 13

It's been a few hours since I was finally back home and with everyone I loved. We were all laughing and talking around the living room, having an amazing time. You would not believe that I had thoughts of killing them just yesterday.

"I hate to interrupt this, but Shay we need you quickly." Elizabeth said with Zach by her side. I nod and stand up, making my way over to them.

Elizabeth walks me to what seemed to be her office as of now. I sit in one of the leather seats and smile at her.

"Shay you need to send a message out to your father. Let him know you are okay, but that you have had a change of plans." She smirks at the end of her sentence and leans forward.

"Can it be a video?" I ask her.

"Of course." She responds, pulling out a video camera.

After she nods that it's recording, I take a deep breath and start speaking.

"Wow dad. You really did this to me huh? You fucking tortured me for weeks, forced me to believe someone else was the one ruthlessly beating me everyday, and then set me up to kill him for your own selfish good. Well you may be smart, but we're smarter. You know what sucks, is the fact I even can call you a father. You are no where near what an actual father is. I'm disgusted by what you did to me, and you will pay for what you have done. We will come back, and we will come back harder."

As soon as Elizabeth stops recording, I sit back and take a deep breath. Letting tears fall, not giving a care in the world who saw me. Zach squeezes my hand I look up at him. He gives me a sad smile which I return.

After the video call, Shay locked herself in her room for hours. No one bothered her either, I wish I could take the pain away. She was ruthlessly beaten for weeks by her own father who she thought was dead, she almost tried killing me, she stabbed Ella who is in a coma, and now she has to kill her own dad. And even with all that, she's still the strong Shay she has always been.

Everyone sat around the living room, talking about different things and playing games. I didn't participate, as my head was clouded with thoughts. Mostly were Shay, but also how we were going to get back.

"Boss, Daeva is asking for you." One of the men informs me.

"What does that bitch want now?" Elizabeth scoffs as she takes another sip of wine.

"I don't know I'll go see." I roll my eyes and walk towards the cells.

As I open the door, I see a hopeless Daeva sitting in the corner of the room. The room reeked of waste and odor, making me scrunch my nose at the smell, I walked over to a hunched over Daeva.

"He hasn't come back has he?" She whispers quietly.

"Who?" I snap at her.

"Roman. He said he would come back and get me." She groans turning over, her eyes meeting mine.

"No, but he sent Shay to kill me. We got her back though, in fact she's not that monster Shay you tried to make out of her." I say to Daeva, wondering why I'm telling her all of this.

"I'm happy then." She responds.

"You're happy?" I scoff. A sob leaves her, confusing me.

"They brainwashed me too, you know!" Daeva cries out.

"Vladimir, I thought he loved me, and maybe he did but he's gone now. Roman told me he loved me. I fell in love with him. He told me he would save me. But he lied. God I'm so pathetic. To think I could go against you guys, to think I could even be loved for who I am and not just my body." She sobs and looks down.

I don't say anything, I just stare at her in silence, taking in everything she just said. Part of me wanted to forgive her, part of me wanted to say fuck you, and part of me wanted to hug her.

"You know, as kids we loved heroes, as adults we understand villains. Villains were always broken souls, waiting something or even someone to fix them. They want to be loved, I just want to be loved Zach." Daeva cries out. I'll help you with information." She sniffles, looking up at me.

"What information do you have?" I ask her.

"Roman has backup plans, if you think he actually cares that Shay is gone, he doesn't." She says.

"What do you know?" I ask.

"Everything. I know his backup plans, who he is after, what he wants, and the truth that's been covered." She responds quickly.

I nod. "I'll see you tomorrow."

"Wait, something is going to happen tonight Zach. I knew it was going to happen, but right now I feel it is best if I just tell you. Fuck I deserve to die, I'm not doing this for forgiveness, I'm doing this to at least do the right thing before I do." Daeva tears up a little as she speaks and I still can't help but feel bad.

"What's happening tonight?" I ask her.

"He's only going to try once, but he's going to try and kidnap Shay back. By then, he will try to do the brainwash process on her again, but worse." I nod as Daeva spills out all the information to me.

"Thank you." I say to her. She gives me a small smile, which I unexpectedly return before walking out.

Elizabeth is going to love to hear this.
