Chapter 12:The Who Rushed In "Worried"
"What do you mean?" I questioned slamming my hand on the wooden desk, anger was fuming inside of me. I could not believe the council had rejected my request to call war on the Anderson.
"The Andersons have become powerful for the past few years, call out war will involve all alliance and it will be a bath of blood." One of the man from the council spoke, i clenched my palms on my jeans and listened.
"He has my daughter, I will not sit silently whilst that bastard kidnaps my daughter and disappears." I yelled, unable to control my anger. I watched some of the council men jump back, but this was not only a Mafia leader but also a father.
"I can not to anything, too many death will only effect the economy of Mafia. I can not risk several lives for one person." Another council man spoke before they bowed in respect and left the conference room, I sighed and rubbed my palm repeatedly over my face.
"What will we do now, all doors are closing." Henry, Harold's father spoke. I leaned back onto the chair and closed my eyes. The face of my wife and daughter appeared, I could not let them down.
"There must be a way, Henry. But we are just over looking it." I spoke, he too seemed in thoughts as if thinking of any other way of finding the location of Xylia."Xavier what happened? What did the council's men say? Have they agreed?" Xirena questioned barging into the conference room, the sweat patches on her forehead and the worried gaze in her eyes made me want to pull her close to me.
The day we all went out to look for Xylia, we had been unable to find her. However, we had managed to catch Maid Alma who was currently in the dungeon she had tried to use a fake ID to get into a cruise to Berlin but her tattoo of her son had captured Xirena's attention.
It had taken us a whole day and a half and the response given by the council men did not help at all, I feared if they had killed my daughter or worse shipped her off to be auctioned as part of a sex trade.
"Xire-"
"They have agreed to take our situation into consideration, they will be taking it to the higher council." Henry lied, I lowered my gave unable to look at her whilst lying to her. She seemed to believed Henry and wrapped her arms around my waist.
"I just want my Xylia back." She cried into my shirt, I gripped her back and lowered my head to her neck and inhaled her beautiful rose scent. I was head of heels in love with this women, she had given me two beautiful children and seeing her broken and shattered made me weak as well.
"We will have her back, do not worry." I spoke, pulling her away from me. I wiped the fallen tears from her cheeks with my kisses. Emma had gone to Henry her husband and wrapped her arms around him.
"I know you will, Xavier. I believe in you." She whispered and brought my palms to her lips and left a gentle peck on it. I felt shivers run down my body and I closed my eyes and once again brought her close to me."Emma, take Xirena back to her room. Xavier and I must continue our discussion and I want him to have a clear mind." Emma nodded and approached Xirena who looked at me. I nodded my head at her and she turned around and walked away with Emma.
We awaited another five minutes after they left before I turned to Henry with narrowed eyes.
"What have you got on mind?" I asked, he looked at me and turned to grab a piece of paper he laid it on the table with a red and black marker.
"How many allies do you have Xavier?" He asked, I began to count all the allies that were in the United Kingdom separately from the ones abroad.
"Twenty in the United Kingdom and overall around eighty." I spoke, Henry nodded his head and noted it down."Which means, out of forty Mafia's in the United Kingdom ten of them are your alliance which would make thirty remainder." He spoke I narrowed my eyes confused to where he was leading this.
"What are you trying to say is that if we get more alliance towards us we could get Xylia back without the permission of the council." I arched my eyebrows at him, this seemed impossible.The council was not a group of hundred men they were many more than that, and their eyes would be everywhere.
"Impossible, our of the thirty remaining one of them is his Mafia and we are unsure of how many alliances he has, this could turn on us horribly." I spoke, Henry shook his head in denial which made me narrow my eyes.
"Not if we find out before, we could use our links and find out who and how many alliances he has in the UK and abroad and calculate it." He spoke, I was beginning to like his idea but I could not forget the consequences that would occur if this does not go as planned."What if the council finds out?" I asked, I watched a smirk appear on Henry's lips and that made me feel uneasy this man was not only my best friend but also my daughters god father so I trusted him blindly but that also meant I knew him like the back of my hand and his way around the Mafia.
"Do not give me that look." I spoke, I shook my head repeatedly but I knew his ideas would be good and convincing and with me being desperate to have my angel in front of me I was ready for anything.
"Okay listen to this..."
