Omertà, Amore Mio

Chapter 20

I sat next to ma at her computer desk. She's taking forever to pull up this website or whatever she's trying to show me. I leaned back in my chair. "Mom, can you just tell me what it is" 

"Here it is. Did you know this was going on?" There was a picture of Noelle along with prices. She's being sold. I rubbed my hand over my face. "Do you know where Noelle is?" 

"I think Biagio has her. I don't know for sure." She sighed. "By the looks of this, She'll be headed to California by Friday. You better get your ass over to  Biagio's and get her. You do what you need to do to find her Aufiero." 

"I am. I just found out that she was there earlier. I just thought she was ignoring me but turns out Maso is in kahoots with Biagio. I have a plan ready but I have to wait some days before actually doing it" 

"Well, you better hurry the fuck up before you loose her forever" I nodded and left the house. Biagio is seriously fucking up. Selling Noelle? I'm really aboout to be ruthless as fuck. 

Noelle

Biagio says I'll be going to California on Friday at 4. I had know idea Professor Juniper was into this type of stuff. This shit is weird. Biagio pulled me up and pushed me back into the room. "Sucks that your boyfriend can't save you"He smirked. "Shut the fuck up you asshole" He laughed and closed the door locking it behind him. I buried my face into the pillow and sobbed. Where the fuck is Aufiero? He has to know by now. 

Someone banged on the door. "SHUT THE HELL UP WITH ALL THAT CRYING. I DONT WANNA HEAR THAT SHIT" He yelled. It was one of the guards. I wiped my tears and sat up. "Aufiero please come get me"I whispered. "Aufiero ain't coming for you. He doesn't even love you. You've been here 2 days already. He's moved on" The guard said. "No he hasn't. Shut up"I cried. He chuckled and kicked the dor. "Do I need to tell Biagio you're disrespecting me?" I kept my mouth shut. He laughs again. "Thought so" 

The window was sealed shut, literally. The glass isn't even there anymore. It's just a few blocks covering up the hole. I stood up and stared at it. Maybe if I find something hard enough, I can break through the blocks. My eyes scanned the room but I found nothing. The lock on the door turns. I squint my eyes at the lock. "Better come out now. He's gone"Someone whispers. I know it's not the gaurd because the voice is softer. 

Walking towards the door, I open it. It's a guard but not the same one. "Go, run"He says. I smiled and ran straight to the door. "BIAGIO SHE"S ESCAPING"He shouted. Biagio came running down the stairs with his gun. He pointed it at me. "Walk out that door and I swear I will blow your fucking brains out, right here, right now" I gulped and turned the handle. "Fuck you"I said. I ran out the door as fast as I could. He was firing shots but luckily none of them hit me. "THEO GET HER"He yelled. Theo? I came in contact with a tall and buff italian man. He smirked and grabbed me by my neck. Biagio caught up to us. "Noelle, when will you understand that you can't escape me puttana"He said. He slapped me with the gun and I was out. 

I never imagined my life being like this. Especially, not at this point. I thought I would be living fine, completing college. I'm valedictorian but I can't even go to school because I being held hostage by some fuckin mafia don. I wish I had a normal life but no. My life is no where near normal. My boyfriend is a criminal. I might as well be a criminal too. Seems like I'm helping him. He's probably wanted in some places. Maybe he was right. I should've stayed away. I'm so stubborn. 

I'm still at Biagio's house but in a different room. It's a closed off part. It has a window but a camera also. And there's a guard inside so I'm definetly not going anywhere. "Excuse, what day is it?" He let out a breath. "I've been instructed not to speak to you but today is Thursday" Wow. I've been knocked out for two days. I leaned my back against the wall. That means it been almost 5 days since I've been here and Aufiero still hasnt come for me. The other guard was probably right. Aufiero doesn't love me. He probably just said it so I could help him. And my dumbass helped him too. Gosh, I'm so fucking stupid.
