A Touch Of Cinnamon

Chapter Three

Chapter Three

    

I closed the door behind me remembering my mother was home

"Mom!" I yell walking in the house

"In the kitchen Dear!" I hear her shout, Heading to the kitchen I see her cooking

"What are you cooking? Smells delicious." I ask walking beside her to peeking at the dish.
  Yum! Salmon, asparagus and rice, my favorite. Sneaking a piece of asparagus when my mother turns only to get a smack in the head in return

"No eating yet, wait til dinners done."
"B-but mom!" I whine pouting "No buts go freshen up."
   Groaning, I stomp upstairs, making it up to my room throwing my sweater and skirt off, putting them in the dirty hamper before walking into the bathroom and turning the shower.

Hopping in the shower my muscles loosen as the hot water runs down my shoulders to my back causing a sigh to leave my lips.

Thinking back to the way my lips felt on Roman's cheek

I touch my lips giggling.

ROMAN'S Point of view

I couldn't keep the smile off my face as my bunny ran inside his house embarrassed for an innocent kiss on the cheek.

My smile was immediately wiped from my face when my phone rang and seeing my father's name pop up

My usual stoic face came back as I picked up the phone

"We have a meeting about the Eastern Mafias, we got insight that they are planning something, so get home now!" With that the call line was dead.

Speeding home I couldn't help but think of my sweet, innocent, shy bunny.

I really wish I could be with him right now if it wasnt for the fucking Eastern Mafias and my father, parking my car and slamming the door shut I head up the grand staircase into the meeting room.

Many of our friends and allies were seated and stood discussing, they quieted down bowing when I entered the room

I nod in acknowledgement before heading to my father who was talking to a family friend Titus

"Father..Titus." I greeted

"Roman." They said roughly "What's this about the Eastern Mafias?" I asked
       My father cleared his throat before stating " Knox the strongest Mafia leader in the East has made an army or clan of some sort, We caught one of his members and tortured him until we got our intell, Knox is leading the other Eastern Mafias to attack us for whatever reason that maybe." I nodded taking in the information

"And the member that you questioned? Where is he?" "He's still in the cells, in case of further interrogation." "I would like to speak with him." I concluded after getting permission I headed to the cellars

Going down the steep concrete steps I was hit with the smell of blood and paint fumes.

I see a man in his late twenties tied to a chair beat up a bit, I bring a chair and set it infront of him as he watches my every move sitting down.

I begin

"Why does Knox want to attack?"

He stared at me with boredom in his eyes

"what makes you think i'll tell you."

I chuckle darkly at his words "Well unlike my father, I don't stop when the screams start, so we can do this the easy way or the hard way." I stated
