Mafia Men IV: Rossi

Chapter 30

The house was empty and I searched around the house.

"What do you mean you didn't see her exit the house?" I yelled at my guards " I swear if I don't get an answer from any one of you I will line you up and gun each and everyone of you down"

"Cam" Tyler said grabbing my shoulder and I looked at him. "Check this out"

He showed me the surveillance footage. The crowd running me being separated from Lia.
"Zoom in right there" I pointed and he zoomed in and there was Lia on the ground and a guy just as she described bent down to help her up. She's limping and he's helping her and then she struggles in his arms. My jaw clenches as he pulls a cloth out his pocket and puts it over her mouth. She fights him and then her body goes limp. He throws her over his shoulder and carries her out the back where the security cameras have blind spots.

I knocked down the vase next to me.
"Fuck!" I yell

I can't breathe. I can't think. I feel my blood boiling.

"Where is she?" I see Cat with tears down her face running into the house. She must've gotten past the guards when I specifically told them to keep everyone out.

"Do you know who this man is?" I asked her showing her the close up of the guy "Nic" I believe his name.

She shook her head. "Is that the guy who took her?"She asked and I nodded

She cried harder. "No" She said and Alex pulled her into him.

Brandon looked shaken up and I looked at him.
"Do you know who he is?" I asked him and he looked at the guy.

"No. I..I never seen him" He said "We just got her back"

Brandon dropped to the ground and put his head in his hands. "He'll never let her go now."

"Enough!" I yell at him "That is not a fucking option do you hear me. That is not.." My voice cracked. "not an option"

"What do we do?" Cat asked me with her eyes glassy and I ran my hands through my hair.

"Where did Elijah take her the first time?" I asked them

"They stayed in her hometown near her parents. They always wanted her to be close" Brandon said shaking his head "But he'd be stupid to go there knowing you'd follow. They could be on a flight anywhere right now. What if we never see her again?"

"Brandon so help me God I will put a bullet in your skull if you don't shut the fuck up" I said to him

He cried and his head laid in his hands.

Cat crouched down and hugged him.

"Go home. I'll find her." I said walking off

"You have to keep us updated" Alex said and I turned around

"I'll let you know if I find anything." I said and I went into my office. Tyler followed me inside and I watched the surveillance footage from my desk multiple times. He stood there in silence.

"You can go home" I said to him

"I'm not leaving you alone" He said

"I'm fine" I said to him

"This is what you do Cameron. You push people out when you feel too much. I know this is killing you. I can see it on your face. You can't keep it all bottled in." He said

I stood up and looked at him.

"Fine you want me to let it out. Okay. I'm fucking livid right now. I want to kill every single one of those guards out there for not noticing the bastard come in. I want to kill Brandon for even saying those stupid ass words. I want to kill you for letting me feel so deeply for anyone like this.......I want to scream and if I could rip my own heart out of my chest to rid of this feeling I would. I keep thinking about what Brandon said over and over and fucking over again and it's making me feel like i'm suffocating like my chest is caving in and the thought of never seeing her again is about to bring me to my fucking knees to pray to whatever god will listen........She was just in my arms Tyler. Just in my arms and like that ripped from me. So I can't let it out. I can't let out every single emotion that I'm feeling right now out because I'm afraid. I'm afraid of the reality. The reality that she really might be gone for good and I'll go back to feeling as empty as I did before I knew her. Except that now...I know what the missing piece is and it will drive me into the ground." I said and I leaned against my desk and I looked down at the ground as the tears ran down my face. I couldn't hold it in. I tried to hold it together but I couldn't.

Soon I heard footsteps and I looked up at Tyler. He pulled me into him and hugged me tightly. I broke down in his hold and he patted my back as I cried.

"We will find her and bring her home. Together." He said making me look at him as I pulled away from him.
"Say it."

"We will find her and bring her home"I said and he nodded

"Now let's quit the water works and find your woman" Tyler said and I looked at him

"Thank you" I said

"She even got you saying thank you. Yea we need to find her asap." He said and I glared at him.

"All jokes aside. We're practically family man. You're my best friend. We stick together and see this through. We're getting Lia back and you're gonna put a bullet through that motherfucker for taking what's yours." Tyler said and I nodded

He was right. I will find her and I will find him. When I find him so will my gun. Elijah will wish that he was back in prison and safe from me.
