Bullet love

Chapter 9: Astray

Lev Alexei Volkov. Mobboss of the Russian mafia. The underworld calls him "the ravenous wolf".

Stories tell that he absolutely despises disloyalty and disobedience. If he spots someone that dares to have one of those qualities, they completely disappear from the surface of this cruel world. Some say he cuts off the limbs of his victims and feed them with it till there is eventually no victim to feed its limb to.

He is the only one that is supposingly even more skilled than I am.

Since my beautiful ears heard those wretched words, I've been looking forward to having some alone time with him. Now that he took over the mighty thrown of the new organisation that includes some of other mafias which have unfinished businesses with us, he has become even more dangerous than ever before.

Papa gave me the orders to use my abilities to make this menacing man trust me and then exterminate this pain in the ass.

While I'm on this mission I will need to find out more about him and his minions but it is extremely hard since I'm locked up in this room and annoying Ineshka or wait was it Innis?Is coming in frequently. Additionally, I believe there is someone guarding this door.

I need a plan.
Quick.

Wait I think-
Hopefully they own a gun-

Knock knock!
Knock knock!

"Hello!?, Hello!? Is one of you knuckle heads thereee!?"

No response.

"I need HELP ASAP!"

Ugh come on.

"HELLOOO!"

Silence.

"HELLOOOO!"

"What's wrong?", I heard a familiar voice at the other side of the door.

Gotcha.

"My period! I need a pad or a tampon, I don't care but make it fast!"."Wait let me call Inessa"."Nooo! There is no time for that! Just open the goddamn door and I'll get some more toilet paper or something".

No response.

"FUCK! NOW!"

Click

And there he stood before me. My eyes meeting the forest in his.

"Thank you", I said smirking and reached for the flashing metal in his pocket. Then used this gun to coldly knock him out. His huge body dropped in my arms sothat the noise didn't draw attention to me. I ran towards the dark hallways without knowing were I was heading to. The mansion was so enormous. I felt lost in a modern labyrinth. Finally I spotted a little passage towards a parlor. The door was locked.

Shit.

I used the gun to shoot the lock and the door slowly opened making a creaking noise.

Easy.

My careful foot steps filled the air. I faced the gun straight forward. Prepared for any revelations. I began checking out this creepy room. It was little. Little like a storage room but at the same time grande. Grande and enchanted. Somehow roots of threes robbed the remaining space of the room and the leaves marked the dark walls. The room barely had area for its shelves and cupboards. There were tons of books and files. I quickly searched all of them. The light of hope spreading in my insides. I did not have much time till Diego would gain back consciousness.

Suddenly I saw a quick movement at the corner of my eye.

Peng!

I pulled the trigger without a single sign of hesitation.

I slowly stepped towards the shadow of my target. Just to find a hairy monstrosity squeaking with its final breath.

Sorry but ew.

I returned to the furnitures by the sides of the room. My fingers softly following the cracks of the broken paintings placed on the walls. As I went through the shelves clogged in dust a globe lighted up in the genius head of mine.

What if one of these books opened a secret passage, just like in movies?

I began trying out all the old books. One after another. Eager to verify my hypothesis.

But nothing.

My very last shimmer of light was fading away. I used the tip of my finger to push down the final book. Suddenly a thundering noise spread throughout the spine-chilling room.

I knew it!

"You are doing well Aurelia. Now just move your tiny hands gently to the centre. Great", her beautiful lips covered in a wine red lipstick sang into my ears, "Now shoot! Shoot Straight into the baby's little heart".

The innocent baby screaming, crying and fighting. Clueless of what future it was about to hold.

"But what if I don't want to mommy", I shaked my head, forcing my luscend tears back in. My gaze on the poor little baby. My hands trembling.

"You know what happens when you disobey Aurelia", her gorgeous face came exceedingly close to mine,
"Do you really want to go there?", her eyes widened as those red lips crumbled into a crooked smile. Her diabolic facial expression crawling into my skin."We did not raise a dense child. Listen to your mother",the dominant voice of Papa tones from behind me. "Don't be weak! Shoot!", the peculiar melodie found its way to my little ears.

My six year old heart racing, feeling like it would burst out any minute. My six year old hands quivering even more intense than before.

Peng!

No way.
There's just no way.

My adult sized hands let the gun crash down on the ground. Not a single tone being able to make its way out of my inherited lips.

Before me, the face that I had locked deep into the darkness of my unconsciousness.

"Aurelia...".
