The Ghost of Your Bullet

☜ Chapter 8 ☞

I walked up to my office watching whatever was on my phone as Marc stood in front of me.

"Sir we have a problem" he said his voice shaky I look up at him and put my phone in my pocket.

"What's this problem Marc that you have to intervene as I got to my office to relax" I sternly say looking at him as he steps back

"Sir the Russian mafia are on their way and they are very pissed off with you and they told us we have 10 minutes to hand the girl over or they are gonna blow us a new asshole" he chokes while speaking to me

"Marc do you understand that no one can get into our gated mansion and if they where to come they would have to meet 7 of our securities who won't let them in" I sigh looking at him

"Go check on Raelynn I'll deal with this shit make sure she has clothes and food and don't touch her or let her out, you understand me!" I growl as I type on my phone and look up at him.

He shakes his head and quickly leaves. I walk to my office and file some paperwork watching the cameras and turning on the radio to check on security to make sure everything was ok.

30 minutes has passed and only one person showed up to apologize after he was half beaten by my security. I chuckled softly before going to the isolation room to see Raelynn.

As much as I hated this and hated the idea of marriage my mind and body ache to see her. Her frown her anger her farting eyes. She doesn't scare me but she sure does make you stand higher.

As I walk down to her isolated room I see her in the fresh close the plate empty of food and I knock on the door before being let in by the buzzer.

"How are you feeling" I ask sitting down on the floor after showing her my vest and my sides letting her see I have no gun with me.

"I'm ok I want to be out of this room it's depressing and cold" she looked at me pain and sadness in her eyes

It made me feel uneasy the way she looked at me. I don't ever want to see that from her. "I can make you a deal if you promise to abide by my rules" she looks at me.

"We have to learn to like each other, your head is on the line and mafia is too. I aspect you to follow these rules as I'm not pleasant or merciful when it comes to punishments." I look at her as she shifts from the word punishments.

"One don't try and escape I'll know the second your foot touches the ground your trying, two you'll be only coming to 2-4 of my meetings with me the rest your not companying me for. We have balls and events you are to show up and be respectful and at my side or with one of my men. Three you'll be staying in your on room, you'll have a set schedule of things you will need to do and follow by. You will have no cellphone or laptop till I can fully trust you and if you are caught with any again there will be punishments" I watch her as she makes mental notes

"The rest will come later but if you'd like I can show you to your own room and you can be properly introduced to the maid who if you need anything for she will be the person or marc that you go too" I stand up and straighten myself

"Do I make myself clear!?" I say sternly hoping my words got to her. I watch as she fiddles with her fingers and nods looking at me.

I nod and knock on the door and opening it looking at Raelynn "follow me and don't trail off!" I snarl and start my way to the back of the mansion where I love and now Raelynn.

I followed Alec down the hallway, it was empty no photos no amusement just a bright hallway making a left to another hallway.

It was creepy following 'the most dangerous man' down a bright endless hallway. I watched as his body was stiff and tense as he keeps walking soon making it to the stairs that we had to walk up.

He waits for me to go first as I walk/run up the stairs not wanting him to be behind me as I walk up the stairs.

I can here him grown as he tries to catch up with me. I stand at the top and wait for him knowing he wants me behind him once again as we walk to wherever we are going.

We continue to walk down the hall surprisingly it gets better the more you walk down. It's almost to say it feel homey. Paintings and some family photos as well as side tables with lamps and little mints.

I smiled looking at the paintings as I walked by trying not to touch the paintings. I wasn't paying attention to when he stopped and I walked into his broad build my face hitting his chest and shoulder as I push my hands out to stable my self.

"I-I'm sorry I didn't..I-I mean I wasn't paying attention" I gulp as I look up at him and he smirks my face soon turning into disgust.

I look at him and take my eyes away soon after looking around where we are seeing my name plastered on the door with a side table and basket with blank paper.

"This will be your room, if you need anything write it down on the paper and my maids will come and grab them every hour. You will have to earn my trust for any other device to contact me or the maids and to be able to roam around. I will assign someone to sit in the hallway to make sure you stay inside and only coming out when necessary. I hope you understand my words!?" He looks at me and all I can do is nod and look at my door

As if on cue he opens my door and gestures me to walk in. "Dinner is around 5:30pm I'll have someone come bring it to you" he looks at me and closes the door when I'm inside. I listen to hear his footsteps leave my door.

I sigh and look at the door before closing my eyes and taking a deep breath.
