The Gangster Had Fallen

Chapter 24

THIRD PERSON'S POV

"Will you forgive him for what he've done if he ever apologizes to you?" Rio asked, eyeing the silent boy as he played with his food.

Nagisa glanced at her for a second, before going back to his plate. A sigh came out from his pinkish plump lips, swaying his head. "I don't know. To be honest, I wasn't expecting any of this. All I want is to have a peaceful life, not this life filled with violence. Rio-san, I don't want to be here. Please, let me out of here."

Rio stared at his glossy cerulean eyes, mesmerized by them. She exhaled, tucking some of her fallen strands of hair behind her ear. "I'm deeply sorry, Donna. The Azure Empress told everyone to keep you inside the mansion. You can't be free."

Nagisa bitterly grinned, a tear slipping out from his eye. "I was never free."

The bluenette sadly grinned, laying at Karma's crimson king-sized bed like a starfish. He let out a tired sigh, staring at the chandelier attached on the cream-colored ceiling.

He was done eating dinner, and instead of having his own bedroom here in the mansion, Rio escorted him back towards the devil's room. He tried to reject the idea and just sleep somewhere, but the girl didn't let him and forced him inside. Groaning in defeat, he gave up and lifelessly let himself fall on top of the fluffy mattress.

Rio left him after giving him an apologetic smile, waving a hand and a goodbye. Even if he wanted to get angry at her, he can't. She was there to make him comfortable with the new environment he was going to live in.

For now, he'll try to avoid everyone except her. She was the most trustworthy among them this time.

Mom, huh...

To think that she's a Mafia Boss, she must've killed many people.

Well, it's natural. She beats me up everytime, no wonder she can kill people with that crazy strength.

Nagisa grumbled, rolling around the bed as his mind was filled with his thoughts. He need answers, he needs to know everything. Why is he here in the first place?

"Ah! It's making my head hurt!" He hissed, quietly as he sat up. He didn't know what to feel when he noticed something odd in Karma's bedroom. Spotting something strange that was displayed on top of the shelves, his feet dragged himself to it and took a closer look.

He squinted his eyes to try and recognize the persons that were smiling happily in the picture frames, curious about them being somehow familiar. Their beautiful eyes sparkled in delight as they stared at the camera, wide grins filled their adorable and youthful faces. Two young boys, one is blue haired and the other one have red hair.  Wait, isn't it...

I-it's...

They're...

"Cute, isn't it?" A voice spoke, starling the bluenette and flinched. He knew that voice too well. It still have the same alluring husky tone, coming from those sinful kissable lips.

Slowly, Nagisa turned his head towards the door and widened his eyes when he saw the same man who made his heart skip a beat. Leaning on the doorframe, Karma had his lean muscles bulging out when he had his arms folded across his broad chest. His blazer no longer there and he was only left with a white button up polo, the sleeves were rolled up. And damn, the bluenette would be lying if he didn't found Karma hot with a loose necktie wrapped around his neck.

"K-karma-kun..." He trailed, swallowing the lump stuck in his throat.

"I've missed you, Nagi-chan." The devil said, softly. He closed the door behind him and approached the frozen smaller male. His glinting golden eyes shone with adoration, carefully lifting up his injured hand but stopped midair to have the bluenette's consent.
