The Prototype

5. The Violent Storm

MARCELLUS POV

I was woken up to the sounds of knocking at my door. I opened my eyes looking at the clock seeing that it was five in the morning "What the hell is going on in this damn house." I growled growing annoyed immediately.

More knocks sounded off at my room door. "Arison Marcellus Gillian," Madrina spoke sternly at my door as I knew she was pissed. I rose up grabbing my robe and walked over to my door. I opened the door "Yes Madrina." I answered. " What the hell is going on?" She asked me.

I exhale "I don't even know what you are referring to Godmother." I express. "I see that but the fact that Tempest is being rushed to the hospital ground of the estate because she has or had no pulse as she has drowned herself in her bathtub, water is everywhere and you know how I feel about damages happening to this house." She expressed.

This fucking hell of a woman.

"So you will explain to me why this has happened. How this has happened, Marcellus?" She sternly spoke to me.

I didn't know if she was pissed because the room was damaged by water as she is the reason this estate and almost every building is decorated and designed the way it is. Cleaned and kept in pristine care is because of her.

Seraphina Galileli who is Gia, Gabby and Nino's mother, my auntie, is the nurturer here. She is the mother of all which is why the Mafia calls her Madrina "GodMother", she is the mother of all even if she didn't raise us all. She makes sure the estate stays cleaned, breakfast and dinner is cooked by the chefs on time, every event is hosted properly, everything is going as scheduled and as it should, every building on this estate is running and cleaned as it should be. She is truly the heart of the Villa.

Or was it that nurturing motherly heart of hers that was the reason she was pissed? The fact that Tempest has yet again succeeded or almost succeeded at killing herself without reasoning. Usually, it's me doing the killing or the torturing or the disciplining if someone got out of line or disrespected me, however we have a specific room and area of the Estate for that, none of that is done in the G&G building given the fact that as bad as I wanted to kill tempest during the meeting and as I was standing in front of her in her room. I didn't.

This is the main building, the Mafia Building. Our Building, the family building, and the fact that Tempest did it here and in our building could also very well be the cause as to why Godmother is pissed off.

Even her face showed just how upset she were and even though in my life I've never seen my mother mad at me, looking at Godmother's upset face reminded me so much of my mother's face "Now I have allowed this or whatever it is to go on for too long. I don't know what happened or why. Gia and Gabby have explained to me all that they could and I am very much seeing a pattern here. Either you have told or trigger that woman to constantly want to kill herself because it seems to me that this has only happened after encountering you versus her talking to Gia, Gabby, or Sapphire which seem perfectly fine when that girl first got here and you was not here."She expressed

Even through her anger, Godmother has never raised her voice to me. She has never yelled at me. I know it's because that's truly who she isn't but also she respect me, the man I am and the boss that I am to not do so just as I have so much respect for her to not ever yell or raise my voice to her as the woman she is to me.

It's all in the tone in which she uses that let's me know how upset she is.

How sternly she spoke "The moment you get here and have a meeting with her, something happened. The moment you go into her room to talk to her, hours later she's dead and being rushed to the hospital floor so you will explain to me why that room is now damaged because there's water everywhere since she clearly kept the water running. Two, why did she feel the need to do it in this building. Three, if you wanted her dead you could have just done it in its specified area of this Villa but the fact that you did not kill her tells me that it's a reason she's alive well it's a reason why she took it upon herself to do so. Therefore. You and I now need to talk. I'm going to go call the cleaners, talk to the doctor to see if the girl is alive or not, and then meet you in my office, so be there because this is unacceptable and you know that." she expressed sternly.
