Mines Forever: A Vallea Mafia Romance Story

37

Zyran decides to stand right next to me crossing his tattooed muscular arms in front of the other, with an amused smirk covering his face, as he looks directly into my eyes. "I'm glad you are back home, I assumed you were dead. Hell we all did. Has Eryx been giving you a hard time". 

Zyran manages to whisper so that Eryx cannot make out what he is saying to me, who is preoccupied at the moment as he discreetly talks to someone on the phone. "You have no idea, Zy, how overbearing Eryx has been since he practically kidnapped me. I don't know how the hell Arsenio and he were able to find me". 

The mention of Arsenio causes his back to stiffen and his eyes to widen as if something rather peculiar came to his mind, "Arsenio probably more than likely is the reason why you are even standing here. I still can't believe you were able to disappear for five years. That is fucking badass. I'm glad you are my sister-in-law". 

Zyran bumps his shoulders against mine before he clears his throat, causing Eryx to glance over in his direction before he removes his phone from his ear, placing it back in the front pocket of his slacks. Zyran and Eryx stare at each other for a moment as if they are having a silent conversation that they are trying to refrain from allowing me to be a part of. 

The seconds passed and I was getting more than annoyed with the silence as I stood in the middle between Eryx and Zyran, so interrupted the moment by yelling out. 

"Whatever you two of trying to hide from me, I advise you to go ahead and share what it is because as you can see", I then lift Eryx and I's cuffed wrists, "I am not going anywhere". Zyran has a stern look on his face as he looks over at Eryx he looks quite irritated as he glances between me and then Zyran once more. 

"Go ahead, you might as well tell me what exactly is going on". 

Zyran sighs before he is handed a tablet from one of his armed men who is standing behind him with an AR-15 in their hands. 

"Seem as though we have caught ourselves an informant who worked for the Alvarado family". 

Hearing that name causes my back to stiffen, Eryx glances down at me with concern in his eyes before I can feel his fingers slowly begin to encase themselves on top of mine, as he begins to massage my palms, something that he used to do quite frequently in the past, whenever I became concerned on stressed about something. 

I break eye contact with him, staring off into looking out into the dock with my lips tucked inside of my mouth, watching as several men worked to remove the heavy ports stationed on a docked ship, as well as using steel poles to unlock the ports, removing large wooden boxes from inside. I am curious to know what exactly are in those boxes.

 "Seem as though they had people watching us for several months now", Zyran reveals. 

As I keep my face neutral trying to not shift the guys' attention to me once more. "Shit", Eryx says, "Where is this informant, please tell me you kept them alive". 

Zyran belts out a low chuckle. "Yes, brother. I wouldn't dare take the opportunity to.. allow you to interrogate this person of interest". 

The way Zyran just hesitated just now makes me aware that he was going to say something else but censored what he meant to say because I was present, trying to hide the truth of what was going on. 

"Take me to this person, now", Eryx suddenly demands as I glance over to see Zyran nodding in agreement before he whispers something to his men and then removes a walkie-talkie from his black army fatigue pants as he quickly strides in front of us. Arlo and Tirian take up the rear as we begin walking passed the dock as we make our way toward the inside of the Arsenal base.
