Beelzebub

Chapter 11

"Believe me Alessandro, ain't the one you're looking for" the man's voice was laced with deep agony. Blood sipped from one side of his bruised lip. The shitty things he was saying and  actually thought I would believe that.

"If I were you I wouldn't be lying in this situation." I said in a low menacing tone, placing my silver knife just right over his carotid pulse, pressing it gently to make him know whom he was dealing with.

When his eyes went wide in fear, rimmed with redness making it exactly look how I liked it, I knew I had him where I wanted him most.

"I've heard of your two daughters are really a site to see." I added, twirling the knife on his cheeks deep.

" Don't you fucking dare you bas--"

"tsk tsk Connor".

" If you don't want me to fuck their pussy raw and wild I would suggest you to start talking." I rebuked with determination.

He gulped loudly. His throat constricting every minute making it for him hard to breath. He knew I could do that. He knew better not to underestimate me about my threat.

" I.. I.. did that, I sold those informations to Johnson but believe...."

A loud thud voice echoed twice in the room, stopping him from saying anything more. I had got the part I wanted most.

"Shit not again Alessandro."

"clean it up Robin."

With that I grabbed my suit from nearby chair and stormed outside of the door leaving the mess I had created behind.

Not the mess but the life I wanted most to leave behind.

The sins I was committing,

One by one.

I wanted them all gone from my life.

Not for once.

For ever.

Knocking the door in the particular matter how exactly I tought Lily.

But nothing happened.

I knock twice in the manner but nothing came.

Not wanting my mind to drift in different direction, " Lily are you there?"

I knocked again.

"Lily if you're showing your another tantrum then listen I'm not up for it today." I said in my best deadly voice.

Scrunching my eye brows together I tried to concentrate in any voice behind the close door.
There was no sign of anything.

"Fuck"

Taking out my gun in right hand without wasting any second I was about to blow the lock but suddenly I heard faint footsteps coming in my direction.

Turning my neck almost immediately I saw Lily standing there with folded arms in her chest.

Her eyes fixed on the gun I was holding and then they stopped right in my eyes.  There was something about her stare that was making me uncomfortable, more like for once regret my decision to ever put my hands on the gun in front of her.

She was going to be the death of me.

And I had to do something about that.

Soon.

" Where have you been?" My voice dripped with conviction.

She raised her eyebrow giving a quick glance to the gun I was still holding.

" For fuck's sake don't give me that look child."  That was the breaking point of my patience. At that moment, I was blinded by a rage that I wanted something so badly to punch.

She didn't even bait one eye as she made her way towards the door. Shuffling through the things she was carrying for God's reason why she took out the key and insert in the lock clicking it open. My left hand worked immediately and grabbed her elbow.

" Didn't I just asked you where the fuck have you been Lily?"  The bark of my voice even surprised me as her moisture rimmed eyes were struggling to make a contact with me.

" Leave my hand Alessandro, you're hurting me."  I looked at her through rimmed eyes, I  knew I  should reign it, apologise before It was too late for me  to stop my unspoken word but I didn't have it in me to stop.

Pushing her inside the house hurriedly while maintaining a fine grip in her, there was momentary flair of anger in her face.

" Don't make it hard for me Lily, don't act like this. I've got enough shits in my life to handle so, don't be a brat. How long have you been sneaking behind my back like this?"  I spat angrily as everything was going far beyond my handle capacity, and the girl standing right in front of me was making it more worse than ever.

I was livid. She couldn't be outside the house. She knew exactly what the consequences will be if anyone came to know about her presence. She knew exactly why I didn't want her out of the fucking house. She knew the risks and yet she overlooked them and broke everything I've built for her security.

She fucking didn't know how much she worth to me.

To my life.

In my life.

" Am I the one making it hard for you? Is that so? May be you should ask yourself why I sneaked behind your back like this. " snatching her arm from my grip she took two steps back until she was eyeing me head to toe.

"What are you talking about? What is the matter with you?" Scrunching my eye brows in confusion I glared at her for any response.

" you're taking dancing classes behind my back. Aren't you?"

Silence.

That was it. My breaking point. I knew someday will come when I wouldn't be able to content her amd that was the beginning of it. I wasn't against the idea of her taking dancing classes but was the safety risk of her life.

For our life.

And then and there I realised what steps I had to take to make it not happen again. She simply showed me that was the way of her doing things.

Pinching my nose bridge and taking two long breaths I slumped on the couch. Raking my hands through the dense curls I glared in her direction.

"Okay. So that's what you want to do?" I asked in a very calm voice I didn't even know I was capable of.

She took the sudden change in my voice and her demeanour completely changed. From rigid to relax within a second. She knew where I was going with the conversation and before I knew what was happening she jumped in my lap, encircling my neck with both of her hands.

" Yes yes yes yes. A big yes!"

She exclaimed in joy as she looked directly in my eye with immense joy. And the next second I found myself holding her tight in my arms, " Okay so let's get you enroll in the best dancing studio in the city."

" you're the best. " with that she placed a small kiss in my cheek as she made her way from my lap to her room, running all way. A soft involuntary smile made up to my lips seeing her joy for my single decision.

May be we weren't normal.

May be I wasn't doing a normal work, leading a normal life,

But for her, I wanted everything to be normal as much as  possible even if it meant sending her away from me.
