"I'll see you soon, sunshine." His charred breath hitting my ear as I attempt to push him away. His chest beating against mine, interlinked. I've never felt warmth after my mother's soul fluttered away, she may physically be here but mentally, my mother is gone. It's a feeling that's unexplainable, body against body, the feeling of one's heartbeat against yours. It makes you
Vulnerable.
I grab my dagger from his hand and push it up against his throat, resting on his skin.
"Ever pull some shit like that again then you will have no tongue," I glare into his slightly green brown eyes filled with...amusement?
I don't give him a second glance as he lets me go and I walk straight past him, jaws hanging from the guards outside when I past by, probably wondering how the fuck I'm just walking freely, I don't even question it, the one thing I do question is;
Where the fuck am I
I turn around, to witness a full blown mansion, the house looks grander than ours. Bloody show offs. This must be his place. Why expose your location though does not make sense. I look around trying to figure out my way out of here and there I see it, my beloved motorbike, with my keys hanging off the ignition. I practically skip towards my bike witnessing my phone on the seat, weird.
I need to get to kenji
I don't have time to worry about the latter
Hopping onto my bike, placing my helmet on my head I look back at the house one more time hoping I never see it again nor the Russians, they're trouble and I can just smell it, no wonder they're the number 1 mafia.
It was only a 32 minute drive to the base, I don't even call home, I turn off the ignition and run inside.
"Kenji" I search all over the place, empty except from the guards patrolled around monotonously," Father? Where the fuck are you guys"
Searching around the whole house, 1 room, another room, the next room. Nothing. I reach the basement, opening the door and pacing down the steps,
Slam
The door closes behind me
1 step
2 step
3step
I know it's my father's just by the sounds of it, it's like the sounds of drums playing every time he steps foot on the cold slabs of ground. It's menacing, cold even.
"Kenji's fine, Sylvie," He doesn't seem phased," aren't you Kenji?" He turns around to kenji standing behind him, almost worn down.
"Why were the Russians there last night?" He questions
"The Russians?" I act stupid knowing he can see daggers straight through my soul
"Don't fucking play with me, Another mafia was there and you decide to play house instead and go to your secret little hideaway? That is not how I raised you dear" he kisses his teeth, walking towards me, kenji looking furious in the back but I nod my head signalling to him it's alright
"I killed Santos, I didn't know they were the Russians until after, The Russians wanted Saintos that's why they were at the Casino" I stood firmly, my dad hates mercy, it infuriates him. He also hates lies.
"What about this morning?" He almost smiles like he's caught me in an act, "come on sylvie," he takes another step towards me, " you know I am not stupid, no mercy remmeber? No lies? What happened to my sweet little daughter, tell me where did they take you this morning?"
He wants to know who took me and why
But I don't even know myself
'They want you serpent'
Santos words playing in my head
Fuck you Santos
Smack*
My head turns right from the harsh impact of his rough hands against my glass skin as I spit out the pool of blood in my mouth, kenji trying to contain himself, fighting against the urges to tackle my father precedently.
I show no pain, although my cheeks are already swollen from impact as I look up at my father who stares down at me disapprovingly.
"Your ceremony to be the don is next Tuesday, you will also need to be wed, we need heirs" he turns around, steps and threatens, "if you ever do something behind my back again, your mother won't be here no more"
My hands are clutched so hard that blood starts dripping down my fingers, as my father exits the basement, kenji pacing towards me with guilt portrayed all over his face.
"Vie are you okay," he touches my cheek and palms my hand, "your dad didn't do anything once I woke up, he just sat there, waiting."
I look up at him, my cheek pounding, a million thoughts racing in my head
To be wed
He wants me to get married
"Kenji, I'm fine don't worry,"
lie
I make my way past him and towards the exit of the basement, racing towards my father.
He seems caught off guard hearing my footsteps, turning his head to the side to witness me pacing after him with utmost anger.
"What the fuck do you mean i'm to be wed," infuriation laced within my voice
I don't give a shit no more
He smiles, turning fully around.
"Your to be wed to the Russians, I think it will be perfect, don't you think?"
What the fuck is he playing at?
The Russians?
