Marino's Heir

Chapter 6

What did he just say...?!

 Everyone was clapping and smiling. My father gave an emotionless Look waiting for my reaction. I gulped and didn't say anything, I just looked at him.
After a few seconds I looked down but he's still looking at me with no emotion. How is this possible? I started to get used to this place. I started forgetting the fact that my parents aren't my real parents. I started moving on from my old life but for what.... getting in a mafia?! How I never expected that? He's a godamn billionaire! Boss?!! Yeah...Explains that too. And the gun in Enzo's back and Natasha's too.

I'm a Mafia Boss's Daughter.

Is this even real or am I dreaming?!
Maybe I heard him wrong...
I looked at him. "Mafia?" I asked nervously. He looked at me silently. "Mafia." He said. Not long I found everyone else staring at me. My heart started beating fast. The way he looked at me made me feel that if I panicked or screamed or did anything close to denying the truth....he'd do something to me. My breath fastened when I saw Enzo looking at me, then He looked at me worried, nodding 'He's not easy' he moved his lips telling me. It made me more nervous, I looked at father and he was still waiting. A woman came beside him and put her hands on his shoulder. It's the same woman from the first day I came here and knew I'm adopted. "See Vincent...She's not your daughter or let's make it clearer...she isn't going to be a good girl to you or us." She held my neck with her hand raising my head up. "Oh look she's even crying....not our type of girl nor heir........Pathetic." She said in a disgusted way. Wait. What the hell??! Who is she to act with me like this? Mafia huh? He wants to know what I think of it? Fine. If he's their boss means he's her boss and I'm his daughter. She should respect me. So, she shouldn't call me pathetic or anything else.
She digs her nails in my cheeks then pushed my face to the side leaving me. "I think you shouldn't waste your time with her." She said, my breath fastened but not like before with fear, No, this time with anger. Who the fuck is she to scratch me like this?! I looked at my father with an angry face, he was still looking at me but when he saw me now something changed, he smiled. She didn't even notice me looking at her like this. I turned her around and slapped her. "Oh!" She looked at me with shock. I held her the same way she held me but even stronger almost making her choke. I took a deep breath and said "And I think you should respect me! You know what I hate the most about people Is that they act and talk before they think of the conclusions! No one ever should be treated like this! Definitely not me, you'll find yourself in the hospital!" She moved her hand almost out of breath to Father, but he just watched. "So, let's make this clear...DON'T MAKE ME ANGRY!" I shouted my grip getting even tighter. "Enough!" My father shouted. I looked at him but still didn't leave her. "Why enough?! Huh! She can't just do that and think I'll leave her!" I replied angrily. She started scratching me till she couldn't hold it no more. "I said ENOUGH! TAKE HER AWAY!!" He shouted, but I was still looking at him and choking her. Enzo and one guy came, he held my waist pulling me from her while the other guy took her away, she fell to the ground breathless. "NO! LEAVE ME!!" I screamed but he didn't. "TAKE HER UP TILL SHE CALMS DOWN!" My father shouted then left. Enzo was still holding me, and I was struggling to free myself and go hit her. "Enzo leave me!!" I said but he was still carrying me from behind walking out of the room.

When he got us out, he left me. "You asshole!!! I swear I'll---Aaaaaahhh Enzo leave me you pig!!!!" When I started pointing at him angrily, I was so focused on saying anything to him that it even didn't cross my mind that he would suddenly carry me on his shoulder. I started hitting his back and shouting for him to leave me. I lost hope in the middle of the way but then.
I saw Ryder getting out of a room and staring at me laughing. "Nonoo! Enzo get me down! NOW!!!" I Hit his back again very hard, he groaned but I didn't stop. "Calm down we're almost there now stop it and shut the fuck up!" I stopped at first then realized what he said. "You did not just say to me shut the fuck up...?" I said in a normal voice. I heard him kick a door open and breathe deeply. "Yes, I did!" He said calmly. I started hitting him again trying to get down. "YOU BITCH!!!!GET ME DOWWWN!!!! I hate you I hate you I hate you! Aaaahhh!!!" ........."You want to get down? Fine!" He said and threw me heavily on the bed. He crossed his arms and looked mad. I removed my hair from my face looking at him angry as well and got up. "You happy now? Huh? You finished your mission and got me to my room. Now leave! I don't want to see your face!!!" He smirked when I said the last sentence. I don't even know why he would do that. "Get out!!" I yelled at him and got up to the balcony angrily waiting for him to get out. "I don't believe you." He came held my hips behind me, I shivered and moved away from him getting closer to the edge. I told myself that I'll ignore him and that's what I'll keep doing. "Do you hate me, Cleo?" He moved closer and whispered from beside my hair. "No... But I don't know you either." I said looking down at the left side. "I...." He said in a low voice. I turned to him. "Doesn't matter, just leave!" I said and walked from beside him and sat on the bed taking out the phone. "Look I understand that you must've really gotten annoyed from what happened before---No I don't care about this and I'm not going to talk about it.... Leave me alone." I Cutt him off and yelled then looked down at the phone while saying the last sentence. This house is for a mafia. I still didn't take time to think of it clearly, and I need to. "I know--No, you don't! Know anything! About me!" I stopped him again, walking to him, pointing my finger at him. "You don't know what I feel. What I see. You don't, Enzo! So don't act like you care!" I started yelling at him. "I don't want to see your face! Just leave!" I shouted but found him walking to me. I kept stepping back. "You're overreacting---No, I'm not! Stop just stop! I hate you! Don't you see?!" I said, looking at him angrily. His eyes are staring at my eyes as if he's seeing through me. I looked away and bit my lower lip. He held my chin with his finger, making me look at him. "I do, see....not hate but something else." He said.
I walked backwards until I hit the wall and nodded no. "Then you're not seeing the whole picture." I said, and he put his hands in his pockets. "We both aren't." He said and walked closer to me. "Enzo, please leave. I do--I want you to leave." I said in a low voice. "Are you sure?" I nodded yes. He took a deep breath and came, holding my cheek with one hand. "You know I'm sorry, right? But if you don't want to see me again.......then i'll do what the princess wants." He smiled and turned into someone professional, keeping his distance away from me leaving me empty and cold. He closed his hands and stood straight like a bodyguard, then looked down and walked away. I closed my eyes, and sighed.

A few minutes later, Natasha knocked at the door and delivered a note from my father which he wrote in it that I have to meet him in his office.

I wore my shoes and took my bag getting out of the room to see what the old man wanted.

A few minutes later I found his office. I guess I'm starting to get to know the place. "Cleo." I knocked on the door and got in. He sat straight saying my name when he saw me. "Before you could say anything , you need to know this." He said completely calm. "Tomorrow you'll learn how to drive, fight, use a gun, And pack your bag when you're ready." He said crossing his arms and giving me the same look he gave me before. The same look that seemed to threaten me and force me to do anything. I stayed silent for a minute and he raised an eyebrow. "Do you have a problem with what I just said?" I said no and looked at my hands on my legs.

"After that..You'll travel to Italy."
