My Winter

Nicolas' pov:

I heard the shower turn on and was about to fall asleep when I heard a rapid knocking at the bedroom door.

"What?" I yelled, wincing.

Bruno rushed in with a worried look on his face. And that look, made me forget my pain and put me on my feet.

"Whats wrong?"

"We got mail from, Lucien. You need to see it." He said urgently.

I quickly grabbed my clothes wondering what it could be this time. All this boy does for me is cause trouble.

I followed Bruno down to my study where a small box laid and a card.

The game is on
You hide among me
Just as I hide among you
Just how many, we shall see
-L.

I quickly dropped the card and opened the box. There was a plastic lining in it to keep the blood from leaking. It was a tounge, ear, eye and hand.
All signifying something.

The eye for spying.
The ear for eavesdropping.
The tounge for gossiping.
And the hand that had my Mafia's tattoo on it.

He took out our inside man, Joel. Shit! He took out our only lead onto him.

My stomach was getting sick. I can get mean with my torture methods, but not like this.

Quickly though, I felt rage and angry boil inside of me. I wanted to destroy everything in this room.

"We have a mole too. Anyone that you can think of, that you don't trust?" I ask Bruno, who had a very white look on his face.

"Not on-" He gulped largely and shook his head. "Not at the moment boss."

I kicked the office chair and picked up a few of my books and papers that laid on my desk and threw them against the wall. Bruno didn't flinch. He's used to it.

"We were getting closer to him. He's hidding in the darkness like a coward." I thought about Joel. "What am I going to tell his wife?"

"I'll take care of that. I'll make sure her and the baby will be okay. Melissa will help them out too." Bruno said. Melissa is Bruno's wife. She's a selfless girl. She'll make sure everyone is ok before she is.

I nodded. "I need to find this mole. Now! And get Blackstorm and Bloodline to meet me at the office! We need to ahead of Lucien."

"Right away boss." Bruno left to go what I asked, while I grabbed my keys to my Jaguar XE SV.

(For those who don't know, Project 8 is the fastest Jaguar saloon ever. Its 5.0 litre supercharged V8 produces 600PS and 700Nm of torque, making it the most powerful engine ever fitted to a Jaguar road car. Maximum speed is 200mph and 0-60mph takes just 3.3 seconds. So in other words...It's fast.)

The office is about 30 minutes away, but I got there in 10. Usually, a good drive can help clam my nerves, but not this time. He killed one of my men mercilessly. Joel knew his life would be on the line but this was unacceptable. I would avenge him and his family. And I would find that Mole, make him suffer and then send him back to his pathetic man of a master, with barely anything to call that Mole a man.

I'm not as ruthless as Lucien. But I can make an exception this time. Especially if that Mole sends word to Lucien about Winter. If he hasn't already.

When I got to the office, I texted my cleanup guys to take care of what was left of Joel in my office. I don't need Winter stumbling upon it.
