Arrangement : with the gang leader

68

Shadow

Seeing her hold that gun with her father was a piece of memory I will forever cherish. It was a beautiful moment if I do say so myself, despite the circumstances that made this moment possible. 

Holding her in my arms on our way back, I thought it was finally over. I know we still have that shit ex of hers to deal with but we're already on that. Her dad said he wanted to handle that himself. I'm guessing they have a history together seeing as he knew exactly who Matilda was and Matilda knew him. And feared him. 

I shift a little when I feel her stir under me. She passed out about 20 minutes into the drive-out. Matilda was holding her hostage in another country. Matter of fact, another continent - Botswana to be exact. I think to myself, how was I going to crack this one up if it wasn't for her father. The rogues are beyond what I know. And I know a lot. 

I'm connected to Russians, Italians, the undergrounds - which are a very hush group of gangsters, Romanians and abakwa Zulu. I had called all my contacts in order to try and find her and none of them could get anything. I only had one lead, which was someone who had told me to forget about it and move on. He looked shaken when telling me that. 

I had him captive after that of cause. He swore his oath to silence and shot himself when one of my guys was stupid enough to go into his room with a gun on him while he was uncuffed. The guy followed him. I will not have my men acting reckless and claiming to be connected to me. My men are well trained but this experience has shown me that we need even better training. 

I don't know much about these rogues besides what I've been told by Lerato and her father. 

"Sir?" the driver frowns looking at me through the rearview mirror. I shake my head from my thoughts and look around. We're back at the warehouse. 

This has to be her fathers call because I had thought we were going back to my place so that she can at least reset from the trauma. I walk with her in my arms and take her to my room here, passing her father on my way. 

"Baby" I gently shake her awake and she peeps open her beautiful eyes. This woman has no idea how gorgeous she is. Not just on the outside but inside too.  

She looks around her while grabbing onto me tighter then relaxes as she sees where we are. Yes she's been here before. 

"Let's go take a shower so you can rest, okay?" I say to her and she slowly nods. 

I walk with her to the ensuite bathroom and place her on the little couch there before walking toward the shower. I chose the shower because she looks too weak right now and I want her to rest so the shower will be quicker and easier. 

After setting the water, I walk back towards her and help her take her clothes off and at first she looks a bit hesitant but I give her an assuring peck on the lips and she lets go. I may not have seen her completely naked but I've seen all the important parts before. Besides, I won't hurt her. She's gorgeous, yes, but sex is the last thing on my mind right now. 

When she's completely undressed she begins to attempt to undress me and I chuckle. I can see that even the slightest of movement or contact with her hands is causing her pain yet she's still relentless in trying to get me naked. Umuntu wam kodwa. She blushes and I peck her lips again. 

I help her in getting me undressed and we're finally both in our birthday suits. Her eyes dart down to my boner and I lift her chin to focus on my face before picking her up again and carrying her inside the shower and closing the door behind. 

I place her on the built-in sitting of the shower and she grabs onto me adjusting to the cold of the tile under her ass. 

"You okay?" I ask and she nods. I try to be as gentle as I can. 

I let her take in the moment before I start to bathe us both. There's no talking, just me washing us and her squirming from time to time. I try to be as quick as I can and eventually we're done. I turn the tap off and grab a bit fluffy towel from the drawer and wrap it around her before carrying her back to the bedroom, not forgetting to grab the lotion and roll on. I lay her on the bed and begin to attentively moisturize her. Then I do the same for myself quickly. 

I see a tear drop rolling down her face and I wipe it off kissing her cheek. 

"You're safe now." I say and tries to grab onto me in a hug. 

I gently get her off me because I need to clothe her first. I see her face fall but I merely smile and kiss her forehead before getting 2 boxers and a hoodie from my clothes. I see her study my movements as I dress her and she's got the most adorable focused face right now. 

Once I'm done I make sure that my gun is under my pillow before cuddling her into bed. She melts in my arms and fits so perfectly. In this moment right here, right now I would die a happy man. 

She holds onto me as hard as she can, as if she's scared I'll disappear and leave her. And I see her silently cry as I hold her and whisper "I'm not going anyway, rest". 

And hour later, I hear the door open and it's her father. I gently let go of her and cover her with the blankets before leaving the room with her dad. 

"Empty room?" he asks and I lead him to a couple of rooms away from mine. My study. 

The first thing he does when the door closes is punch me. I don't fight back because that's still my girl's dad. This is between men and it's about a man's daughter, my baby who happens to be his ACTUAL baby.

"That's for not protecting her" he says and I clench my jaw. 

He lands another punch to my stomach, " That's for even looking her way and thinking you're worthy of her love " he seethes. 

I groan before standing up straight again, taking it like a man. 

He looks at me with clenched teeth and I can see that seeing his daughter like that hit a sensitive spot. I mean hell, it did with me too. 

"I'll handle Vitsky," he says before noticing the confusion on my face and he shakes his head, "Godfather" he says and I nod. So that's his name. 

"Make sure that my daughter heals alright. For now, rest, all of you, including your best men because when I return, there will be no time for that" he says and I nod. 

"That's my baby, Shadow. I will feed you your dick with your blood as sauce if you ever hurt her." 

"She's my baby too, I'd never hurt her intentionally," I say holding eye contact to assert my dominance. These are still my grounds. He smirks. 

"I like you. Don't fuck this up or you'll see a side of me that even the Devil fears" he says then walks out.

Hope everyone has done their due diligence in their research regarding tomorrows elections. Guys, let's let go of ANC torho. It has played it's part and we'll pay our respects to the work it has done but we have to continue to fight for what our ancestors fought for. That isn't with ANC anymore. At least not for the next 5 years. It doesn't serve us how we need to be served as it's people anymore and we need to come to terms with that. 

Maybe in 5 years, it would have re-evaluated it's stance and done better but for now? Let go. Let's also not forget to pray for the future of our country. The same future we want to bring and potentially raise our children in. Let's pray for a better South Africa and pray for the following leader so that he may do right by the people of South Africa and that includes all races and ethnic groups, classes and ages. 

Amandla!

Viva Africa!
