My Ex Mafia

My Ex Mafia
Chapter 44

Sylvester

It has been 5 days in the hospital and Nicole was still badly injured, but she no longer had the tubes inside of her, which meant she was getting better, slowly.
Rico had arrived at the hospital a few days ago keeping me up to date with everything that was happening with the Mafia as well as who blew us up, but there was no luck, whatever was attached to the bomb was burnt in the explosion.

The only information that we had on the person was that they were apart of the Lucchesse family and that they'd be at the funeral, which meant I had to attend to find out who the culprit was as well as who the new Don would be and whether this was their way of starting war between out Families.
For the past few days I haven't left Nicole's side. I fell asleep on the couch in her room as well as ate in here in hopes that she'd suddenly wake up and tell me she'd be okay.

Rico came in with a coffee and a change of clothes for me. " So Alberto's funeral is taking place today in an hour, the Lucchesse family is hosting it by the old Graham cemetery, so whoever was on that call with you should be there today." Rico stood next to the window as he stared at Nicole's condition. " Thank you Rico. We should get ready soon, if we want to get a better view of who it could be" I said as I got ready to stand up which became a challenge as I hadn't gotten my check up yet, I couldn't. I refused to make myself feel better when I knew Nicole was not.

As I stood up u felt a smallish hand gently grab onto mine making me stop. I turned to look at the hand and saw Nicole's head titled toward my body but her eyes were still closed. "Nicole?" I said softly as I sat back down to take her hand with both of mine. "Sulllyyyy..." She said in a weak and slurpy tone which shocked both Rico and I.
"Get the Doctor in here Rico now." "Yes boss" he said as he left.
"Nicole it's okay, open your eyes for me" I said in a soft tone as I moved closer towards her. "Bomb...it..it was a bomb..he tried to..to..kill me. But...but...but he's dead...it said A.L...but Alberto is dead....how..how.." she said slowly as her grip on my hand tightened.

Nothing she said made any sense to me, maybe it the amount of sedagives that was pumped into her body to reduce the amount of pain that she felt, that caused her to speak like this, either way I had no clue.

"It was addressed to me...he... he.. tried to kill me, but he's dead?" Her grip on my hand started to loosen up, but her eyes were still closed. The doctor finally arrived but that's when he grip was totally free.
I got up and went to stand with Rico. "She mentioned Alberto, questioning his death and said that something was addressed to her, that she was the target" I told him as the doctor started to check on her vitals and her bruises. "Alberto's dead so he's out the picture which means there's someone else in the Lucchesse, the one on the call who knows about Nicole and is targeting her to get to you." Rico said as he kept his eyes ok Nicole." You should get to that Funeral. I'll let you know if her condition changes anytime"

"I appreciate it . Take care of my girl Rico " I said as I grabbed the change of clothes and left. I couldn't help but think about how the first thing that came out her mouth during this week was my name. Which meant that either I was on her mind or that she knew I was there with her the whole time.
This whole thing made me uneasy. Seeing Nicole so helpless made me physically and mentally ill knowing that she was helpless because of me. I forced this lifestyle onto her, she came back hoping for a new fresh start but because of me she has been kidnapped, nearly sexually assaulted and now...now she's nearly died because of me.
She ran away from me because of this life that I live and now that life almost took her life away. In fact Maybe it already has, she lost her job, she lost her apartment and now she has a target on her back because of me.

I was dressed in a black suit as I made my way to where Alberto's funeral was taking place. I had a pair of sunglasses on , just to keep my face covered so I wouldn't cause any problems while being here. I looked around the cemetery to see anyone who looked new or odd but no one fit the description.

I stood there for 15 minutes before deciding to light a cigarette. People began to leave as the coffin was finally 6 feet under ground and that's when I went over. My free hand was placed  inside my suit pants pocket as I stood over his grave looking at his tombstone.

A Loving son
A loving leader
and loving brother

Brother? I asked myself staring at the tombstone confused. I had no idea their were two of them. There was no one around which meant this was a waste of time. "Rot in hell Lucchesse" I said as I spat my cigarette onto his grave ready to leave.

"A cigarette on a person's grave site? That's a little rude wouldn't you say?" An unknown person said from behind me. "He deserves all the rudeness and disgust." I said as I turned to look at the man who had picked up the cigarette. He had on sunglasses as well which covered his face but there was something about him that was familiar.

"You really hated him didn't you Mr Gravano?" The man said with an ugly smirk. "He messed around with the wrong people. He deserves this" I let out as I took a step closer towards him. " You look familiar, have we met?" I asked him in a rough tone.
The man chuckled before taking a step towards me with his head down. "In fact we have. My name is Alessandro Lucchesse but you can call me..." He lifted up his head as he took of his glasses revealing his face. Instant rage cruised through my body. "Kevin" he finished his sentence as he smiled.
I felt my hand drop down towards my gun as I gripped onto it.

"There's no need for that today Sully, I'm not here to fight, not today. I'm here to let you know that everything you love, everyone you love will soon be punished and there's nothing you can do about it" he said as he smirked at me.
"I'm going to make you join your brother " I said as I pointer my gun at his head. "No I won't, because you won't pull that trigger. Not today." He said with so much confidence and with a calm tone. "And why not Lucchesse?" I asked as I clicked my gun .

"Cause if you kill me right now then the 5 men that are at the hospital will kill Nicole on the spot." He had 5 men at the hospital watching Nicole the whole and I couldn't protect her. I trusted Rico to take take if it but he wouldn't be able to protect her against 5 Lucchesse gunmen.
"I have planned out everything Sully. You won't win this one." He said in a cocky tone making me feel annoyed.

"Your brother said the same thing before I put a bullet through his skull." I spat, not letting go of him gun that was still aimed at him.
"That's the thing Sully. I am Nothing like my brother. I had a plan and he didn't follow it and now he's dead . Unlike him I won't break my plans and neither will you. I am going to take away everything from you, the same way you took away everything from me. let the war begin"
