Vicky Stone is just your regular 26 year old, working a basic job to survive with a college degree gathering up dust. She works at one of the most luxurious hotel "Hotel Marino", little does she know that the owners of this establishment are more th...
Another long ass day, leading nowhere. It's close to 12 am as I open the door to my house; I slowly open the door trying not to make a sound so I don't wake up anyone at home, Leo following right up behind me. I don't have a Luxurious house; I'm a very simple man. I got myself a nice 1-floor house, 4 bedrooms in a nice part of town.
Leo has been staying at my place for a few weeks now. His excuse was his girlfriend was annoying him and he needed space, but I wasn't stupid I grew up with Leo, I knew he was still upset because of his father's death and just didn't want to be alone in that house. Later on, he admitted it, and told me he also left his girlfriend, he wasn't in the right mindset...can't blame him. Leo loved his father. I did too, Enzo was like a father to me, I use to always play at Leo's house after school when we were children and Enzo had the hot's for my mom so he low key loved having us over... My mom was upset when I told her, she always said he was a good man and she wasn't wrong.
"Hey, Alberto," Leo whispers quickly interrupting me.
"What?" I reply slowly closing the door behind me and locking the house.
"I think someone is up" Leo points to the hallway.
"What?" I quickly turned around and see my son standing in the middle of the hall still half asleep while holding his blanket in one hand and rubbing his eyes with the other. "Robbie? What are you doing up buddy?" I walk towards my son.
"I can't sleep daddy" his sweet voice just melts my heart. "Hi, uncle Leo."
"Hey, there big boss." Leo gives Robbie a warm smile. Underneath that rough exterior lies a kind and gentle man, just like his father.
I pick up my son and cradle him in my arms, he was five years old soon to be six, I missed when he used to fit in my arms, now he's like a heavy sack of flour. I take him back into his room and tuck him back into bed, I give him a gentle kiss goodnight on his forehead. I make my way out of his room closing the door behind me carefully.
I take a deep breath of relief, as I hear some footsteps behind me and turn to see Celeste the love of my life. She was just pure beauty, her light brown hair her beautiful green eyes, glowing while she carries our second child. I quickly embrace her in a warm, tight hug and kiss her forehead.
"You are home late, did you bring me my nuggets?" Celeste smiles at me while giving me a gentle look. And running her fingers through my golden locks.
"I'm sorry my love, it's been crazy at work. I forgot I can go out again and bring you some, if you want." I run my hands through her brown hair, admiring every detail of her face.
"Oh, no it's okay honey, I get it ..." Celeste's smile fades and she gives me a worried look. "Have you found her yet?" Yes, Celeste knows what I do for a living and she took the vow as well, it's a risk her knowing but I just couldn't keep lying to her. When we met I was young, just started working for Don and the guys. To her, I was just the hotel's security guard... Then Robbie came... And the responsibility sunk in. I needed to keep them safe, get them a good house in a nice part of town, so I had to tell her the truth... Where did all the money for the house and everything come from. I thought she would bail on me and I'd never see Robbie again, but she didn't she stood by me through it all these years, with a promise, of course, that on every late shift I should come home with food and she wouldn't be mad at me, ahaha... I love her and my children more than anything.
"No, we haven't found anything yet. Everything is just a dead End. Luca is gonna lose it soon." It's been rough times. We have raided most of the Russian owned brothels and clubs and no one wants to spill any info. Seeing Luca's face every time our leads turn into a dead end is heartbreaking. I don't know how he has managed to keep it together. I don't know what I would do if someone stole my woman. I'll probably go mad she is my everything. "Go back to bed babe, I'll be there with you soon. Have to talk to Leo a bit". She gives me a nod and walks back inside to her room; I make my way to the living room to find Leo lounging on the couch lost in thought. I sit right next to him and give him a tap on the shoulders.
"Hey, you okay?"
"Wh-what?" He snaps out of his trance. "Yeah, I'm good I was just thinking about work. This whole Vicky and Nik thing are just stressful, I just hope we find them soon enough before boss loses his mind." Leo replies while scratching the back of his head and straightening himself up on the couch.
"Tell me about it... Wish Enzo was still around. He was good at this tracking and finding stuff."
Leo chuckles. "Yeah, dad was a pro at this... remember in high school that he would always know where we were and showed up to whoops our asses, everytime we lied about where we were." Leo let's out a small laugh.
"Holly shit yes.!" I laugh with Leo as we reminisced on some Enzo moments. Miss that man more than anything, closest thing I had to a father.
"You know he did have a secret to why he always finds people right?" Leo points out while lighting his cigarette.
"I didn't know... what was it?"
"He installed trackers on our things, he probably did on your shit too while you were slepling over. He did that with Gio and Luca too, trackers on their phones, suits some jewelry. Dad was a pro with those tracking bad boys."
I laugh out loud. "That son of a bitch." I stare away at the décor on the walls, still giggling at Enzo's genius tactics... and then it hit me. "Wait, Leo... you said he puts trackers on the boss's jewelry right?."
"Yeah why?" he gives me a confused look. "That's it... I remember boss sending Enzo to collect that necklace he got for Vicky... do you think he might have?"
"Holly shit Alberto... he probably did... fuck! We have to tell boss..." Leo stands up from the couch abruptly.
I quickly get up as well and make my way to my coat and quickly put it on. "Come on Leo! We have to tell the boss! We might have found a way to track where Vicky is."
We make our way out the door and quickly into the car. I drive off to Donatello's estate where Luca and Gio are. Finally, we can finally put an end to all this and bring Vicky home.
* * * * At a Bar...
"Give me another one, and make it a double this time" Killian lifts his cup up to the bartender. The Bartender walks towards him and pours him a drink.
"Little early to be out here drinking Killian" the bartender mentions ,his Russian accent deep and raspy. "What did you get yourself into now? Rumor has it Boss kicked you to the curve" the bartender lets out a laugh.
"Mind your own business Gustav" Killian snaps and takes a sip from his drink. "I just wanted to have some fun with what's mine." he reaches into his pocket and pulls out Vicky's necklace and holds it up in front of his face and admires it. "And I'll have my fun soon enough, that capo will regret meddling with what's mine" he smirks.
