Damon Russo was terrifying to almost everyone. If you were on his good side , you might be tempted to find him harmless because he could be kind and caring, sometimes even playful. But those who did find him harmless were naive.

He was a monster. He loved to watch his victims bleed out. He loved to torture them. He had no remorse.

Knowing Jake had hurt Clara pissed him off more than he thought it would. But then again when his own soldiers hurt her, he killed them.

He was very well aware he had hurt her and he hated to acknowledge it because he was worse than Jake. He had hurt Clara alot worse and it was sickening to think about.

He knew he couldn't change the things he had done but he could at least protect her from anymore harm.

He was heading to the mansion to change and visit Jake as the Mafia boss but he was so angry that he turned his car around. This was personal to him and he wasn't going to hide behind a mask.

He knew Jake's address from it being on his record and also the extensive background check.

He arrived at Jake's house, he decided he didn't want to get his jacket bloody so he removed his suit jacket and tie. He walked up to the apartment and knocked on the door.
Jake anwsered, at first he looked flustered but then it turned into annoyance.

"Hello Jake" Damon said in a overly friendly tone. He invited himself in.

"You can't just walk into my home" Jake said as he followed his boss inside.

"I can do whatever I like" Damon said.

"Fine. Why are you here" Jake asked.

Damon pulled out his knife and twirled it in his hands as he looked at Jake with hatred.
"Why do you have a knife" Jake asked slightly wary.

"It's my emotional support knife. See when someone pisses me off I channel my anger with my knives and since you hurt Clara I'm pretty angry"

"That fucking bitch came running to you then. It's none of your concern what happens in our relationship. Now get out" Jake said.

Damon snapped and within moments he had Jake pinned to the wall "you really should watch your tone with me, you have no idea what I'm capable of"

For a moment Damon released Jake, he put away his knife and rolled up his sleeves.

He no longer looked like a businessman. His tattoos could be seen now his sleeves were rolled up, his hair no longer styled to perfection. Instead it was messy but that made him look even more deranged. And If you looked carefully you could see how deadly he truly was.

He looked at Jake like he was prey. He wanted so badly to kill the man but knew Clara would blame herself and so he would spare him. But he would torture the man first.

With a quick punch, Jake crumbled to the floor. "you can cry if you want. Oh I do love it when they cry and beg for mercy" Damon said giving the man several kicks.

"She's my girlfriend. You need to stay away" Jake managed to say.

Damon crouched down "I'll spend as much time with her as I see fit"

"We were fine until you came along you know that right. You ruined our relationship" Jake continued.

Damon rolled his eyes, but he decided to humour the man "why was it my fault"

"I see the way she looks at you. You're fucking scum and yet she won't quit working for you"

Damon smiled slightly. Even in his current state he felt happy? Well whatever the feeling was, It was something he could tease Clara about.

"No what's scum is you beating your girlfriend into submission. She is her own person, she can do whatever she wants" and with that he began beating the man up.

He stood up and smiled at his artwork "I'll sue you. I'm calling the police"

"Go ahead they'll arrest you for abuse. Now if you don't mind I have a business meeting to attend to"

This time Damon did go back to the mansion and changed into his mafia persona.

He went back to Jake's apartment. This time as the Mafia boss. He told Clara that she should call Jake and tell him she wants to meet.

When Jake left the building, Damon followed him for several blocks before pushing him in a alley.

This time Jake tried to run, he tried to beg for his life.

"I swear I haven't done anything. Please." Jake begged.

Damon knew the timing probably seemed suspicious. First he paid a home visit to beat him up and then the Mafia boss pushes him into a alley.

Damon didn't speak though. He got to work. He had a baseball bat with nails sticking out of it and he hit the man with it all over his body.

Jake screamed , in pain and trying to get help. Damon simply pulled out some duct tape and put it over his mouth.
He put a knuckle duster on one hand and pulled out a chain to hold with the other . He punched the man again and again. And practically whipped him with the chain.
He didn't say a word. He kept hitting the man until he was struggling to stay conscious.

He knelt down and took out a knife. Damon unbuttoned his shirt and on his stomach cut him with the knife, drawing a specific pattern. A mark if you will.
If anyone saw it they would know the Mafia boss saw him as an enemy.

"Leave the country and never come back"  he warned, he made sure to change his tone so it wasn't recognisable.

He would kill the man at a later date but not today.

"This is my home I can't leave" Jake said whilst coughing up blood.

"Then I'll kill you" Damon said menacingly.

Jake didn't reply so Damon left him with one more thing before he left.
"Wherever you are in the world, I'll be watching you. I will make you suffer for days, I will listen to your screams with joy, I will smile as I watch your blood decorate the walls"

Even in his state, Jake felt a chill run down his spine. He didn't make the connection to his boss. He just felt fear for both men and he knew he had to leave.


















Across town, Damon strolled into the mansion with a satisfied grin on his face until he saw his father.

"What's wrong?" Damon asked knowing their father would usually be at home.

"You have blood on you" Alesandro looked at his sons white shirt that was covered in blood.

"Don't worry it's not my blood" Damon shrugged it off.

"And that's supposed to be reassuring. What happened " Alesandro said.

"Nothing happened just a little fight. Why are you here"

Alesandro sighed knowing he wouldn't get an answer of his son. "I just wanted to check you remembered our trip. You've had so much going on I decided to ask you in person "

"I haven't forgotten dad"

."Great. I'll leave you to it, ".




I apologize if this chapter didn't live up to expectations. I also found Damon as the Mafia boss not speaking brought more fear to the man. Hopefully you're not to dissapointed.
