Mafia King's Redemption

Chapter 7

Chris's POV

I looked at the crying Amber on the floor and made my way towards her. I hold her arm and pulled her up making her stand.

I started taking her towards her room. Once we reached, I saw another man lying on the floor. Blood coming out of his head. I took her to another room and told Mike to clean the room and take him to hospital as there are no maid right now.

I pushed her inside the room and warned her “if you don’t want your friend to die then do as you are told." I turn away and left the room and locked it from outside. I made my way towards my room and went to take shower. I already texted Jasper to put guards in front of their rooms.

I am really shocked about what happened. How this small girls were able to take our 7 men down. I am very impressed with them. But what shocked me the most is Lucas behavior. He is not the mafia king for nothing. She dared to disobey him but still he left her alive.

That cruel man, no matter how much one begs in front of him, he never changes the punishment he has already given. But today he changed his punishment even though slightly but he changed it.

I came out of my bathroom wearing my sweatpants and made my way towards my bed.

..........................................

I woke up in the morning. I did my morning business and checked the time it’s 8.30am. Mr. and Mrs. Knight will be here around 9 am. I left my room and headed towards Lucas’s room as I have things to talk about.

I knocked on the door and went inside after hearing 'came in'. He was buttoning his shirt. “Good morning boss” I greeted.

“Morning Chris I was expecting you, sit”. He said and I made myself comfortable on the couch. After few seconds he also came and sat down. “speak” he said when I didn’t said anything.

“Lucas about last night, I have footage you wanna see what happened” I asked and he nodded. I connected my mobile with his laptop and press the play button.

After watching the footage, I asked “ what do you want me to do”. He was thinking for a while and then said “remove them from their position, I don’t want such losers working for me. And put more skilled man on these positions” he said.

I nodded and replied with an ‘okay boss.’

“Why your parents are coming suddenly” I asked him.

“Mom is bringing a new guest to meet me” he said.

“ another girl” I asked and he nodded with a sigh.

“You should get married this time you need an heir” I told him

He sighed again “you know I don’t want to marry and I have not found the perfect woman yet."

“What are you planning to do with Amber? do you have plans of leaving her anytime soon?” I asked him.

“I want her and I won’t leave her at least not anytime soon” he said.

“ Great, what do you think about her” I asked again and he raised his brow in confusion.

“I mean what do you think about marrying her” I explained. He gave me an 'are you serious' look but didn’t said anything. That’s my cue to continue.

“you want her and she is your prisoner as well. If you marry her you won’t be her kidnapper but her husband. You will have complete rights over her and you can have your ways with her. Moreover you don’t have to be loyal to her and can enjoy your life plus your mom will stop bothering you with different girls.” I finished with a smirk.

After some time he replied “nice idea dude” and smirked evilly. I can assume what he is thinking about.

A knock on the door brought him out of his imagination. A maid came and said “ sir your parents are here”. He nodded and dismissed her. She bowed and left.

“Let’s go meet the new guest” he said and made his way towards downstairs with me.

Amber's POV

After Chris left me alone I fall down on the floor and started crying. Because of me she will be punished 'again' and I can't do anything to help her. I cried till I fall asleep due to tiredness.

I woke up when someone was shaking me. I instantly sat on my bed and looked at the person. It was Tom. He brought my breakfast. “Eat” he commanded.

“ can I eat later?” I asked with some hope but he shook his head and said “if you want your friend to starve one more day, then suit yourself”. He turned to leave the room but I told him to wait.

Lucas is really very cruel how can he force me to eat while my friend is starving because of me. Tears started flowing from my eyes but I finished all the food. “ Good” Tom said and took the plates. Before leaving the room he warned me “ just do as you are told” and left.

Listening to his warning I started feeling nauseous and made my way towards the bathroom and throw up all the food I had eaten. Then I took a quick shower and wore my dirty blood stained clothes again. I sat on my bed and started crying again.

Whatever is happening right now is constantly reminding me of my past days which are nothing but nightmare for me. Is my life going to be like that again. Even after all these years I still remember those days clearly as they happened yesterday. I just wish I wouldn’t have met ‘him’ that day then nothing would have happened.

Flashback ( three years ago)

I came back home from my work. I am so tired. Guarding rich brats type girl is the most difficult task. I went straight to my room and took a quick shower. I came out and saw its 8.00 am in the morning. I laid down on my bed and sleep took over me.

I woke up when I got a call on my mobile. I checked it’s my superior and answered it.

“ Hello sir” I said.

“Hello Ms. Stokes, meet me at Delight Hotel at 12.00 pm.” He said in his professional voice.

“ why?” I asked. “to meet your new client” he answered and cut the call.

'I just hope my new client is not some brat' I thought. Let’s get ready I just have one hour I said to myself.

I took my shower and wore a plain white shirt and black jeans. I tied my heir in bun. I didn’t put any makeup just lip gloss. I put on my black boots, took my purse. I came out of my apartment and caught a cab and made my way towards Delight Hotel.

I reached and met my sir Jordan outside. I greeted him then we went inside and sir introduced me to My client. It is an old man in his fifties.

We were talking about details. I got to know I have to guard his daughter who is 19 years old for a month and have to stay with them as well.

We were talking about contract when a girl's voice stopped us in the middle of the conversation. I turned around and saw a teenage sweet looking girl smiling brightly. I saw she was with someone, a guy, no scratch that ‘a very handsome' looking guy.

He has grey eyes, sharp jaw, perfect nose and beautiful lips. His hair were mess but making him look more handsome. He was looking at me with such intensity that it makes me shiver.

Mr. Watson introduced me to them. “ Ms. Stokes she is my daughter Hannah and you have to guard her for a month till she goes back to London and he is my nephew ...” he couldn’t complete when Mr. Handsome got call and went out to answer it. He came back after few minutes and joined us for lunch.

Through out the lunch he was staring at me and it was making me feel uneasy. When we were parting our ways suddenly he hold my hand and came closer to me.

“looking forward to see you again beautiful” he said in my ear and kissed my hand. I was shocked and he winked at me and left. I was standing there dumfounded what just happened here.

Flashback ends.

Unknown POV

“What the hell is it, why can’t you find a girl in a small town huh” I said and threw a glass in my Man's direction. He visibly shivered in front of me. Yeah she is in Claremont, I saw the footage of her leaving that club. But these useless piece of shits can’t even find her. I am burning in anger and want to turn everything into ashes.

“sir I looked everywhere but couldn’t find her. I think she left the place but.. but” he stuttered making me lose my control.

“But what” I shouted making him flinch.

"but we could not find any footage of her leaving the place nor any booking under her name. Maybe she is using another name to hide herself.” He replied.

It is possible. My Amelia is a smart woman and I like her for that. She must have changed her identity so that I could never reach her. “Do anything you can and tell me where is she. Don’t let me see your face till then. Understand” I said in my cold voice. He replied with an “ okay sir” and left.

‘Till when are you planning to play hide and seek my love?’ I thought.
