The Mafiaso And The AD 1024

Cat and mouse

Days had gone by Donte and I, my boss and also a mafia leader, have been having our private chats in his office and in the parking lot

I'm strolling through the park in the rain he's been trying to ask about my abilities, trying to get me to open up about myself

I felt my phone vibrate. Luckily, I had an umbrella, so I took out my phone and read the message

Unknown: If you're free right now, meet me at Sublimotion. I'll be waiting for your arrival... hopefully

I stared at the message and looked at the time it's 10:35pm at night who wants to meet me and better yet how did they get my number I can easily kill them if they harm me so I'll go

I placed my phone back in my pocket and walked to the restaurant. As soon as I stepped foot in it, I was amazed by the surrounding

It was spectacular. Obviously, a lot of money was spent on it. I looked around, and a waitress came up to me

"My apologies Ma'am but the restaurant is -"

"She's with me," I heard. I turned my head to the left, seeing Donte with two other men spoking their cigars and drinking

"My apologies, boss," my eyes widened, boss? I sighed. I didn't have time for this. I walked over to the table and looked at Donte. "What do you want?" I asked firmly

"Oh no need for the attitude, sit I want to talk." I looked at Donte, and he gestured for me to sit opposite him. I looked back at the time

"It'll be quick." I looked at Donte, then sighed, setting my bag aside to the man who was eyeing me up and down. I lifted my hand, making it into a fists making him unconscious

His head falls onto the table with a large thump. I roll my eyes. "Hungry?" Donte asked. I shifted my eyes to the menu

"I'll pay." I looked at Donte. "Get to the point, why do you want to talk to me?" I asked annoyed "you've gained an outsider boss that happens to be a witch. " The man beside Donte spoke

I watched him lean back taking a puff of his cigar then speak "I hate witches, they killed my family" I rolled my eyes "meaning I hate all witches so I don't care if you're my bosses friend I'll still-"

"Still what? Kill me?" I grinned then softly chuckled "you wouldn't even be able to it'll be fun for you to try and me to casually and effortlessly dodge every move" I grinned "enough" we looked at Donte and the man took another puff of his cigar

I picked up the menu flipping through the pages I throw the menu at Donte. "I want the grilled salmon, scallops, grilled tuna, smoked salmon, and the cod," I demanded

"Mh," he looked down at the menu orders I chose, he whistled, and a waiter approached "yes boss may I take your order?"

Donte repeated everything I ordered and then added, "Bring me your two finest expensive wine bottles here you go." Donte went into his blazer pocket, whipping out his black card without hesitation

As the waiter left eith the menus and the black card, then returned back with the card, and we spoke, "Have you ever thought of using your spells for other causes?" Donte asked

"What do you mean?" I asked "well with the magic, couldn't you just make yourself rich?" I nod."I could if I wanted, but I don't. I want to fit in amongst the humans. You know the situations of supernaturals and humans they're natural enemies"

I said casually, "And you're okay with it?" Donte asked taking out a cigar lighting it "I won't deny nor agree I don't exactly care whether we get along or not as long as no one crosses me that's all that matters" I said

"So seems like I may be talking to a potential threat," Donte grinned while saying that

"Tell me more about your lifestyle," I asked he stared at me, taking a puff and leaning back. "Summarise is violence and death a repeat cycle. I don't need to go much into detail.

"Hiding things as well?" I smirked."You know what they say -" he leans forward with his arms on the table "secrets will eventually be told or, in your case, seen. " I rolled my eyes

The food arrived, and I began to eat as the bottle of wine arrived. I heard Donte pop it and pour into my glass

I drank the wine feeling a frenzy feeling that I've never felt before out of all these centuries of living

"What is that?" I asked "this wine not exactly sure but whoever made it had added something to weaken vampires only for a few hours a story had it that he had gotten attacked by a vampire but survived still human but he's afraid now"

I gulp, "so technically he made a drug for vampires because of one incident?" I asked, starting to feel a numbness in me

I'm trying to hide it. "Yeah, I mean, I get where he's coming from. I'd probably do the same. I wouldn't want to turn into a blood sucking creature," Donte said, eating

I tightened my jaw and quietly cast a spell to hurt his internal organs and stitched his lips together he began to groan and look at me

Frowning his eyebrows, as he tried to fix his mouth, I released the spell, and Donte went back to normal

"What the fuck!" He spat but I shrugged annoyed "what was that for?!" He asked angrily

"As a supernatural I felt offended" I say nonchalant "you're not even a-" I put my finger up "doesn't matter that I am not I just know if a vampire was here best believe you wouldn't be alive right now"

I smirked "so you're threatening me?" I grinned "not threatening just saying the truth" I continue to eat the food

"This food is nice great taste" I took a glance at him but he only glared at me

"As I said I wanted to talk you're the only outsider that I suppose-" he looked up and down at me "had the most conversations with" he finished

I scoffed "wow such a loner" I muttered "rude" he spat back I rolled my eyes "anyway, I was wondering if you could do something for me considering that you're not as useless as I originally thought" I stopped eating

And glared at him "come again?" I asked "useless?" He repeated "do you want me to cast you again because I have a lot of tricks up my sleeves one wave and word and I'll finish you" I threatened

"Ah but you wouldn't want to do that, if you do it first you'll have no boss at the company second all my men will come for you with hunters if you run" I rolled my eyes

"I'm not afraid to go against some amateurs" I smirked crossing my arms "you just won't shut up when I talk back do you?" He asked I shook my head

"My men's hunters buddies are well trained since they were born" Donte said trying to intimidate me

I slowly nod and hum "It'll be a cat and mouse game except I am the cat and the hunters are the mice" I smiled
