I HATE YOU MR. MAFIA

THE FIRST ENCOUNTER

The First Encounter

The night was quiet, the air heavy with the scent of impending rain. Sophie clutched her books tightly as she walked through the dimly lit streets, her mind preoccupied with thoughts of her upcoming exams. Little did she know, her life was about to change forever.

A sudden commotion up ahead caught her attention. Two groups of men, dressed in sharp suits, were engaged in a heated confrontation. Sophie froze, her heart pounding in her chest. She knew she should turn and run, but her feet seemed rooted to the ground.

As the confrontation escalated, a gunshot rang out, piercing the night air. Sophie gasped, her hands flying to her mouth to stifle a scream. In the ensuing chaos, she locked eyes with a man standing at the center of it all. His piercing blue eyes seemed to see right through her, sending a shiver down her spine.

It was Leonardo De Luca, the feared mafia leader. In that moment, Sophie knew her life would never be the same.

As Sophie stood frozen, her eyes locked with Leo's piercing blue ones. He took a step forward, a sinister smile curling his lips.

Leo: "Well, I think we got seen, huh?"

His laughter echoed through the alley, a chilling sound that sent shivers down Sophie's spine. The other men around him turned to look at her, their expressions a mixture of curiosity and menace.

Sophie's heart pounded in her chest. She knew she was in grave danger, but running seemed futile. She took a deep breath, trying to steady herself.

Sophie: (thinking) "Stay calm. Show no fear."

Leo stopped just a few feet away from her, his gaze never leaving her face. He tilted his head slightly, studying her with a predatory intensity.

Leo: "What's your name, girl?"

Sophie swallowed hard, her voice barely above a whisper. "S-Sophie."

He raised an eyebrow, amusement dancing in his eyes. "Sophie, huh? Well, Sophie, you've seen something you shouldn't have."

Fear gripped her, but she forced herself to meet his gaze. "I won't tell anyone. I swear."

Before Sophie could react, two of Leo's men stepped forward, grabbing her arms. She struggled, but their grip was like iron.

Leo: (menacingly) "You can't tell anyone, Sophie. It doesn't matter because no one can hear you here anyway."

The reality of her situation crashed down on her. She was at the mercy of a ruthless mafia leader, and there was no one to help her. She knew she had to survive, no matter what it took.

As Sophie's captors dragged her closer to Leo, she couldn't suppress the question burning in her mind. Her voice trembled as she spoke.

Sophie: "What are you planning to do with me?"

Leo's piercing blue eyes locked onto hers, his expression cold and calculating. He took a step closer, his presence overwhelming.

Leo: "That's for me to know and you to find out, Sophie."

His answer sent a chill down her spine. She realized that whatever he had planned, it was not going to be pleasant. She had to stay strong and find a way to survive.

Sophie: (thinking) "I need to stay calm and think. There has to be a way out of this."

As Leo's men continued to drag her towards a waiting car, Sophie couldn't shake the feeling of dread settling over her. She knew she was stepping into a dangerous world, and she had to be ready for whatever awaited her.
