The Mafias Weakness

13 - I'm difficult

{Isabella Jackson}

"Just wake her up, boss will be here soon." I hear a man say while I keep my breath steady and try not to lash out.

But as soon as I begin to focus on my surroundings, I notice that I've been tied down to a chair in a dim lit room.

Are you actually kidding me.

Across from me stood a young man who seemed quite relieved that I had woken up without him having to do anything.

Why is he so nervous...

"Careful, you look like you're about to piss yourself," I break the silence hoping to possibly get out of my restraints and flee this castle

"Shut up." Is his response but I couldn't help but notice the quiver of his lip as he said the words

He's scared.
Of me?

Just as I was about to interrogate the man the door opens and the one and only Luca Romano enters while signalling to his men to leave the room.

Great, just the two of us.

Luca grabs a chair and sits in front of me. For some reason I felt a bolt of electricity flow through my body when we locked eyes but that soon turned into a fire of hatred.

As I looked at the notorious mafia leader I noticed the tattoos that scattered down his neck and I wondered how many more he had.

"You know it's rude to stare mi amor," his luscious voice became present to my ears and I had forgotten how sexy he sounded.

"I'm just curious about your tattoos Mr Romano." His face gave me no signs as to what he was thinking which is the only thing I found threading about Luca.

He was quite similar to me.

"Well curiosity killed the cat Miss Jackson," He stared deeply into my eyes with a smirk playing on his lips

"Is that a threat?" I was becoming more agitated by the second and the feeling of the rope chafing against my wrists was an unpleasant feeling at most.

As if Luca could hear my imagination he stood up out of his seat and made his way behind me.

His hand lingered over my wrists as he knelt down to loosen my restraints, as soon as I felt the rope lose it's tight hold, I slammed my head backwards causing Luca to grunt and collapse onto the floor.

Which gave me enough time to undo the restraints from around my ankles.

"Cmon Isabella don't make this difficult." Lucas voice was stern and I could tell he was giving me a warning.

See, Luca Romano is a man that keeps his word and means everything he says and no one should underestimate a man like him.

"Well if you hadn't have brought me here in the first place, I wouldn't have to make anything difficult. So if we think about it Mr Romano, this is all your fault." I took steps towards him with every word I said and at the final word I grabbed the gun from his waist band and shot him in the leg.

"You are my mission Luca. I can't stop until you're dead." My words were laced with venom as his body collapsed to the cold floor.

I raise the gun to his temple and got ready to fire the gun but as my finger begins to add pressure to the trigger, a needle is injected into my skin causing my vision to go blurry and then my vision goes blank.
