Doing the Waltz With the Devil

Chapter 4

"Now now love, there is no need to get violent here so take the knife away from Enzo's neck and we can have a chat. Alright?" Dimitri speaks slowly and calmly as if I will snap. Which I understand because I do have a knife against one of his henchmen's throat.

"No. Dimitri, what we need to talk about is how you and your idiot goons thought it would be a good idea to whack me over the head with a gun, and then you had the audacity to act as if we are all best friends!" I screech at them while accidentally pushing the knife into 'Enzo's' neck. I see blood start to trickle down his neck and I scream while chucking the knife in front of me, which was obviously not a good idea as it sailed over the counter into goon number two's leg. 

"Ah what the fuck, get it out! get it out! Dimitri NOW!" he screams out. I am sort of surprised he would be such a baby about it. He looks like he is in a gang maybe even the mafia but he can't take a knife to his thigh. 

"Luca, you have been shot four times and you are freaking out over a tiny kitchen knife." Dimitri fires back before ignoring this 'Luca' character all-together. 

I am sitting in shock looking at the events unfold as I realized I just hurt someone. Not badly but I still hurt him. I feel my cheeks become wet with tears as I cry thinking I could have actually hurt him.

Dimitri sees the tears falling and moves over to me and slowly wraps his arms around me, almost as if he had never hugged anyone before. It was sweet until I realized he technically is holding me captive in my own home and I still have no idea while they stayed here. 

Oh shit. What if they want to kill me for seeing what happened last night? Although I can try and argue I had no idea what happened last night because I got hit in the head before I know what happened to the macho men that were, I'm guessing up against Dimitri and the goons.

I push away from Dimitri as I speak my mind. "Um...are you guys going to kill me now and/or soon?" I say quietly, not speaking my mind at all because I am an utter wuss. 

"Love as long as you do everything I say we won't have to get that far," Dimitri says slowly as if speaking to a child to make sure I understand the underlying threat in his tone. Do not worry 'love' I flipping got it and now I'm even more scared than I was five minutes ago. 

"Now go pack, Luca will be putting boxes together for your stuff while Enzo goes to talk to your landlord letting him know you are moving out. Now chop-chop." with that he claps his hands and walks out the front door while dialing a number on his phone.

Why in the world do I need to pack, that is what I am thinking as I go to follow him out the door to ask more questions. Unfortunately, I get pulled back by Luca.

"I do not recommend arguing with him. Just do what he says because otherwise he will come back here and make you do what he wants." He finished with a threatening tone before he went back to building boxes. I sigh but decide my head hurts too much to keep arguing. I go into my room with the boxes Luca had built and started packing up my clothes, hoping that this will all make sense to me soon because if my life keeps going this way I don't know if I will end up okay after this.
