RESURGENCE (rinascita)

Chapter 29

ENJOY THE CHAPTER.

LOVE YOU GUYS,

Alessandro's POV

I can't believe that I kissed her. But I am not saying that I regret it coz I don't.

She is now in her home and I can't sleep because of her. She is in my mind all the time. Whenever I close my eyes, I see her. I feel her lips and her hands in my hair but then, she disappears.

I left my room and went downstairs. I saw my mother, Bethany, and Elijah talking. "Why are you guys still awake?" I asked them.

I still can't believe that my whole family is with me. Except for my father which is a good thing. I don't want to see him near my sister and mother. If I see him, I'll kill him. He tortured Bethany. He even tried to kill Jessica.

What if he tries it again? What's gonna happen if she comes to know that it was my father who tried to kill her and killed her mother? Even if she was not her mother but still she brought her up.

It's not good. She just gave me a chance. I have to be loyal to her. I should not let this things come between us. She should hear about my father from me before anyone else tells her.

"Yeah, we are just catching up. You?" My mother said. "Um, I have something to do so I am going out. I might not come tonight so if you need something just call Marco. If it's very important you can call me." I said and when they all nodded, I left.

"Marco I am going. Keep on alert and if something happens call me immediately." I called out. Marco was in charge of the security.

****

Her house was 13km away from me. I took a turn and I could see her home. I came out of my car but-oh god. People were lying in their pool of blood.

I took my guns out to kill anyone who dares to do anything. Shit, Jessica. I called her but she didn't answer. I jumped over the dead bodies. No one here was alive to tell me what happened.

"Jessica, Jessica. Where are you?" I screamed but there was no response. I entered the home to see that it was a mess. I searched the home and found her phone in one room. Seemed like hers.

People were lying outside this room so the best guess is that she was here. The window was open. Did she jump? There was a piece of cloth near the window that was ripped during the jump. Yup, she did.

I heard a sound from behind me. I turned around to see a man asking for help, lying on the floor. Finally, someone's alive to give me the answers. "Hey, you. Who sent you?" I asked bending down to his level so I can hear him. "Help. Please." He said. "First tell me then I will. Promise." I said because I will help him.

"Giova..nni, he cam..e hi..himself...f to get Jess...Jessica but she jumped. Th....en h he ra...ran after hee...her." he mumbled. Of course, he is in pain. I stood up and shot him in his head.

"There, I saved you from the pain. I helped you, fucker." I said while taking my phone out. I called Lucas. "Hey, um now is not a good time, bro. I am busy." Lucas said. I could hear moans coming from behind. Fucking stupid asshole.

"Giovanni kidnapped Jessica. We must hurry, I can't leave her like. I promised her that I will protect her but I couldn't. Damn it. Meet me at my home." I said and ended the call.

***

"What are we going to do?" Lucas said. He was at my home in 10 minutes. Nathaniel was also here with Lucas. Marco too. All of us were in my office waiting. I have a plan but that is risky. I know that Giovanni wants to kill her because his group belongs to Jessica. Jessica told me this.

And if Jessica dies, the group will be his again. Lucas has a spy who is working for Giovanni. He is going to ask him to help Jessica to escape. Then we are going to attack his home and destroy it. That's the plan.

Easier said than done. Right? But for Jessica, I am ready to die just for her to live.

Jessica's POV

I am 100% sure that I will go mad. In this torture cell with the smell of dead bodies, I am going crazy. I think that I don't remember certain parts and memories of my life.

***3 days after***

I don't know for how many days I have been here because all the time this shit hole is dark. All I remember is the torture in the past few days. Giovanni comes and tortures me and then I get some clips about a woman torturing me and David giving me an injection so that I can forget everything.

Someone opened the door and pushed the food tray in front of me like a dog.

I was tied and my arms, neck, and legs were bleeding all the time. The ropes have small pieces of glass glued to them and that's what keeps me in my place. If I move, it hurts. I have been stabbed a few times but then Giovanni realized that I might die so to stop the bleeding he would put tapes on my wounds which are only making them worse. I can feel it.

I pushed the man as soon as my arms and legs were untied but as soon as I tried to run, I fell. I was this weak that I couldn't even take a few steps. and that was the last thing I remember before I fainted.

FLASHBACKS

My mom came and slapped me across my face. Then she started that torture again which that woman did. When she was done, David came and injected me again with something.

OVER

I woke up and suddenly all the memories came back flooding. It was her, the woman who tortured me was the woman I called mom and David knew everything.

Never in my life, I have felt like this.

Now, I truly wish that Giovanni kills me. Because if he doesn't, I don't know how am I am going to survive. There will be no one who will save me from me, from these memories and betrayals.

I don't want to survive. I don't know what will happen from now on. From now on I am going to be a dead body walking just to kill that bastard named David. And when it is done I will kill myself to save myself from this torture.

Suddenly the door opened and a man came in. I couldn't see his face coz my vision was blurry, voices were faded. He said something to me but I couldn't hear. He untied me and lifted me in his arms.

I didn't resist. If he is taking me away from here it means that either I will DIE or I will be FREE. I will prefer death over freedom after remembering those torturous moments.

After a while, I was handed over to someone else. It was a familiar scent. "Alessandro," I whispered, to get his name out of my mouth was fucking hard. He said something but I couldn't hear him. All I knew was that this freedom will be my downfall.

I again allowed the darkness to take over me. Thankful to God that I am in Alessandro's hands and he will keep me safe till I wake up. No more Physical torture. Psst. But no one can make me forget those memories I just remembered.
