Mafia Men III: Marino

Chapter 44

Ellie POV

"Put the gun to his head" Micheal said to his guards and my heart sank. The guard put a gun to Miles head.
"That one too."

The guard holding Cameron put a gun to his head. My hand began to shake.

"Maybe now you'll understand the seriousness of the situation." Micheal said and I cried

"Ellie don't put the gun down" Cameron said and I shook my head.

"I can't lose you both" I said

"Ellie don't" Miles said and I put it down. Soon Micheal's men were holding me down. I fought and fought and Miles tried to get to me but he couldn't.

"I should kill you but not yet. I want to have my fun first." Micheal said. "Undress her."

The guards began to strip me of my clothes as I fought them. Both Cameron and Miles were fighting but they were held down.

"Stop. It" Miles yelled "Enough!"

Micheal held the gun to my head and I froze. The tears rolled down my cheeks as I stood there in my underwear and my pants around my ankles.

"I'm going to go first then you'll all have your fun. Cameron you can even have a go. I heard about your infatuation with her." Micheal said and Cameron shook his head

"Fuck you. I'm going to fucking kill you. Don't you dare touch her." Cameron said

Micheal grabbed me and bent me over his desk.

"You're no fun Cameron." Micheal said and I felt his hands all over my body. He put the gun down.

"Please. Please don't do this" I begged and cried

"You'll enjoy it slut." He said and soon I heard a scream. Micheal turned around and there was a knife in one of the guards thighs that was holding Miles. The guy let Miles go screaming in agony and he snatched the knife out the guys thigh and put it into the other guys throat.

Cameron used that distraction to disable the guards holding him and stole of their guns. He shot them both in the head. I looked at Miles and his eyes were dark. There was no soul there absolutely nothing. I didn't recognize him. He grabbed the gun and shot the other two guards in the head. Micheal must've noticed Miles's switch too and I reached for the gun. He tried to grab it from me but was grabbed from me and slammed into the wall by Miles. Miles pulled a knife from his boot and stabbed Micheal repeatedly. Micheal screamed while Miles continued. Bloodcurdling screams filled the room.

Cameron rushed over to me taking off his jacket and wrapping it around me. My whole body shook as I watched the scene unfold. "Ellie, you're okay now" He said pulling me into him trying to rip me from what I was watching.

"No" I said looking at Miles again. Looking at this side of him. I chose to spend the rest of my life with him. I needed to see all sides of him. I need to learn to love this side too.

He continued stabbing Micheal. Micheal was turning pale.

"Death itself" Micheal said blood spilling out of his mouth and Miles looked him in the eyes.

"It's Miles" he said and then used the knife to slit his throat. Blood splattered everywhere covering Miles. I screamed and turned my head into Cameron's chest.

I heard a thump and the sound of metal dropping to the ground. Cameron held me as my body shook. No. I couldn't run. I told him I'd never run from him again. I let go of Cameron and saw Miles covered in blood staring at Micheal's dead body. He was frozen almost as if he was stuck in his head. I went over to him. The look in his eyes was scary. I was scared of him. Not for my safety but of what he could do. What he was capable of. Destruction in the most darkest form.

I made him look at me but he wasn't really seeing. His eyes connected with mine. He swallowed hard. I wiped the blood from his face as my hands shook.

"Are you okay?" he asked me and I nodded

His hand ran along my face and then my chin. The blood on his hands coating my face. "You know. There's beauty in the red." He said as a tear ran down his cheek and he looked into my eyes "Do you see it?"

I looked at him and saw him. This was him. The other side of him and I wasn't afraid. I wasn't. I nodded. I ran my fingers along his face, his cheeks, his chin, his lips, all covered in blood. He was beautiful painted in red. "Yeah I see it." I said and he looked at me. The fog gone in his eyes. He looked around the room and at Cameron standing there watching us. He then looked back at me.

"I'm going to go get someone to take care of this" Cameron said walking out the room.

"I'm sorry." he cried shaking his head when he saw me undressed underneath Cameron's jacket. "What he almost did to you. I'm sorry I couldn't help you."

I shook my head. "You saved me. You saved me Miles." I said and he tried to back away from me but I pulled him back to me and down so my lips could meet his. I kissed him with everything in me. He deepened the kiss pulling me up to him. I pulled away and he looked at me.

"I love you. I am not afraid of you." I said "Don't run from me."

"I love you" He said and I smiled at him.

"Tomorrow." I said

"What?" he asked

"You said pick a wedding date. I choose tomorrow." I said

"We don't have to." He said and I shook my head

"I want to spend the rest of my life with you and I want to start tomorrow." I said and he smiled at me. His dimples on his face showing. He kissed me again and then pulled away.

"Tomorrow then" he said
