Destined

Chapter 11

Capricia's P.O.V

Indeed after lunch, me, Dino and both the dogs took a nice long walk around his huge mansion garden or backyard. I was escalated when I got a lead on the mystery mafia but I was going to worry about all that tomorrow morning. Right now I need sleep and some wine.

I walked out of my room and cross the hall to knock on Dino's door.

"Come in" he said and I walked in wearing my black cotton shorts and a full sleeves top which said 'Coffee is my BFF'

"Hey" I said as I strolled in his room. His room was beautiful. Truly. Huge round Queen size bed with a maroon silk bed sheet. A small black office table with a white chair. His walk-in closet was left open and I could easily peek inside. There was another door which under no argument led to the bathroom.

"You had some work?" asked Dino who was sitting on the sofa couch on the right side of the door where my eyes had not laid on before.

"Yes. I need some wine. Do you have some wine?" I asked.

"I would love to escort you to the wine cellar to choose your own" said Dino.

"Just get me something cheap and small so I can finish the whole thing" I said. Dino had changed out of his formal clothes. He sat wearing black sweats and a grey tee that hugged all this muscles in the right places. 

"I don't keep any cheap stuff in my house. How about we open a nice bottle of wine and drink together along with some cheese? I think today calls for a small celebration, its been seven years since I have had a solid lead you have given me a good lead on the MMB. Sounds good?" He asked and I nodded.

MMB?? Oh I get it. Mystery mob boss. I never took Dino as the guy who abbreviated words.

Me and Dino ended up sitting in my room, drinking more than half of the wine bottle and amazing gourmet cheese. I checked the time and it was 1 in the morning. I let out a yawn, Me and Dino didn't talk much about out personal lives but he told me the history of the city, this mansion, and even that he had enemies excluding the MMB. He said, the Russians were also trying to chase his gang as he had taken over most of their drug dealing places. He thought it was funny to say he had a phonebook of enemies. From A to Z. Not. Funny.

I let out a yawn again.

"I think I should let you sleep" said Dino as he picked up the wine bottle and the glasses.

"Thank you for this" I said.

"Anytime piccolo tesoro" he said as he got up and started walking. I was so used to him calling me little darling, it's because I don't even remember the last time I spoke to my dad in Italian. Grand Papa Alberto always spoke with me in Italian. He said before his death he couldn't get great-grandchildren out of me but at least he got me fluent in speaking Italian. The Martins were French so I learned French too, just to impress them.

"Good night Pretty Boy" I said and I heard him sigh and then he gave me a smile.

"Good night Piccolo Tesoro" he said and shut the door. I got up and walked to the bed, apparently I wasn't the only one sleepy. Simba had already slept as he took the spot on the carpet near the window, while Juno was waiting for me to invite him onto the bed. I patted my bed and he instantly jumped up. We both slept backs to each other.

The next morning came by and I felt my head ache. Maybe too much wine? was the question in my mind. Wow now that was rhyming. I got up and wore sweats to take the dog for a nice long run. I came back with both of them panting and they lied down flat in the foyer.

"Kat come quickly, my guy did exactly what you told him and this time we were able to track two of their cars all the way. One from Milan to Rome and the other from Florence to Rome. You were right if you followed them, then they start to run and then the tracker started working and we got a common city. But we couldn't get an exact location" said Paulo. Who was wearing a black polo shirt and white slacks.
