Alicio Present
You know that moment when you know your friend has totally lost his shit and you can't find an excuse for him? That is how I felt when I heard the shouting from our living space. Dominic was full on screaming at her. There was glass breaking and stomping heard.
"Five grand he kills her up there." Theo grumbled as he rubbed his head.
The guards stood at the corners of the room as I stood up.
"Mave, go check on them." I told her and she laughed.
"Yeah, no. I don't need Dominic losing his shit on me. You know how he gets when he can't control himself. He doesn't even know what he's doing." Maven shrugged.
"Yeah, why don't you go check." Tina looked over at me and I frowned.
"Yeah, go check." Sage repeated, an irritated look in her eyes as she looked up at me.
"Whatever." I grumbled before storming off to see what was happening.
"I DIDN'T LIE TO YOU." Xyla screamed at him, their words becoming more clear as I approached his room.
"GET OFF OF ME YOU CRAZY BITCH" He screamed back at her and then another crash was heard.
There was a slight silence before she started screaming and I opened the door, my eyes widening and heart beating a bit quicker as I took everything in. The drawers were thrown down. His window was broken and so was his mirror. Glass covered the floor, his bed was broken and he was angry. Blood dripped down his arm and it took me a few seconds to process what was happening.
He was on top of her, both hands wrapped around her throat as she struggled to breathe. "Dominic man. Come on." I sighed and walked over the glass to pull him off of her very naked body.
I yanked him and she coughed as air finally entered her lungs again. "What did I tell you about controlling your anger? I thought you were making progress?" His chest heaved but before I knew it he was pushing me away and was trying to get her again.
"DOM" I gripped him again and pulled him over the glass and out the door before I shoved him to the floor. "Get a grip." I shouted at him.
He looked horrible. Was he manic again? But then he stood up slowly, looked her dead in the eyes and spoke calmly, even as his voice shook.
"I'm going to leave....if you're here by the time I come back, I'm going to kill you. If you step foot on this property again, I will kill you. If you contact my siblings.....I will kill you. If you decide to act up and destroy any of my businesses or properties I'm going to make your life a living hell." He pointed at her and I looked between them.
She must have really fucked up but I wasn't complaining. I have wanted her gone since she got here.
"You can't do this." She coughed out. "I'm not leaving. You can't." She was still trying to breathe.
