The Luna Legacy - Genesis

Chapter 4 - The past Is Behind Us

*Memory Of Earlier*

"Giorgio, what are you doing? Stop! Let her go!!" I shout at Giorgio as he wraps his hand around Natalia's throat. I jump on his back, and pound my fist into him throwing random blows all over his body.

He eventually throws me to the ground but doesn't release Natalia's throat. I didn't realize that Sam and Sophie had left their rooms both crying hysterically at the sight in front of us.

"How dare you fucking disrespect me, you are a fucking whore! You wanted to fuck him? is that what you wanted to do? I am going to find that bastard, and I am going to make you watch, as I separate his head from his worthless body," Giorgio utters in a deep, and disturbing tone.

I get up from the floor and watch as Natalia gasp for air. Her eyes are turning inside her head, and she is no longer putting up a fight.

"Giorgio! Please! let her go, you're going to kill my sister, noo, noo, noo, please!" I plead hysterically with the bastard.

Sophie runs toward Giorgio before I could stop her, throwing feather punches at him. Sam then latches on to his father's leg, like a monkey, and sinks his teeth into the hand that holds his mother's throat. The entire scene was chaotic and frightening to watch.

Giorgio releases Natalia's neck then grab on to Sam's instead, bringing Sam up to his face level like he was a ragged doll. His eyes devoid of any feelings or any emotions, like he has no soul just a deep dark abyss. He looked evil and possessed and doesn't even look at Sam like he recognizes him as his son.

The sight of Sam's little legs flailing around in midair uncontrollable, is a painful thing to see. I fear for my nephew's life, and I feel defenseless.

I should have taken the gun that Alex insisted that I kept with me. Why am I so fucking useless, I knew this was a dangerous environment, yet I refused the only protection against this heartless man. Now either my sister or my nephew is going to die here tonight.

My eyes scan the room, and my heart is beating out of my chest. A sudden burst of energy surges through me and I run toward the bathroom grabbing the toilet tank cover. Then everything starts to move in slow motion as I break it over Giorgio's head, and he releases Sam on contact.

He looks at me and I am sure these eyes are not natural. He is wearing these golden contacts that make him look possessed. The veins in his face and neck look unnaturally black and protruding out of the surface of his skin.

I stand there frozen in place unable to move watching the unexplainable sight in front of me. Then I hear a loud thud like a cracking skull and Giorgio falls, Natalia knocks him out cold with a metal baseball bat.

It took me a minute to regain my senses. What the fuck was he on, what kind of drugs cause that kind of reaction? No wonder he was so strong, he's always getting high on his own supply, I wish he would overdose and die.

I shake the thought from my head, and dry my tears, maybe Sophie was right, I think to myself. Maybe it wasn't such a good idea that we left Natalia behind. I am scared to think of what Giorgio might do to her when he wakes up from the concussion, she gave him.

I'm scrolling through the photo albums on my tablet. The pictures bring me back to the times, when we were happy, and life was much simpler. The tears flow again when the realization hits, quite possibly I may never see Natalia again. Much like I would not see my mother, dad and brother again.

I know Natalia is not dead, but I do not know if we will ever see her alive again. At least not until Sam is an adult and old enough to make his own decisions. It's the only way to ensure that Giorgio can never control his life. I kiss her picture "goodbye Natalia" I whisper, and I doze off into dream land.
