Dante's POV
"I'm so sorry sir, I'll go get the first aid kit and attend to your wound"
The woman shuddered in fear she frantically searched the whole drawers for the first aid kit while I stood unfazed by the whole situation. She found it and hurried back to me.
"I'm so sorry sir, I apologize on her behalf. She doesn't know who you are or she wouldn't have dared do that to you" She said.
I chuckled.
"Believe me, if I had my pistol with me, your daughter wouldn't even be alive by now,"
Just as I finished my statement, I felt someone grab my collars. I looked up to see the father of the girl.
"Don't you dare lay a finger on my daughter, you had better keep to the agreement and not hurt my family" He threatened and I scoffed hard
"If I were you, I'd not try anything stupid right now. One phone call and your entire family is ruined. Your dirty little secret will be out in the open. Cooperate with me and the Italians will protect you"
I said and I noticed the fear in his eyes before he spat angrily and walked out. His wife followed suit
I arrived in America a few hours ago. Vino had prepared everything, including the house. I only agreed to stay here because of my mission.
The house is so tiny that even my room back in Italy is two times the size of the house. It's not in my specialty to stay in this kind of place,now that I'm just realizing they have a blondie which I'd have killed if I had my gun with me.
She looked so tiny that I could squeeze out life out of her with my hand.
No one has ever stood against me that way. She's brave,I give her that. That makes her interesting.
The worst thing she'd wish for is to make herself a center of my attraction because then, she'd never be able to escape my clutches
I looked at the coffee. It was already cold by now. I left it and excited the kitchen
I had ordered that the basement of the house be prepared for me. Well, not like there is any other room I could sleep in. They're basically just three rooms in the house.
I walked to the basement. The only source of light there was a small candle burning slowly. I switched on my phone's flashlight to get a better view. I nodded my head satisfied with the way things are. They were at least smart enough to put a bed in there and a few other necessities. The briefcase that was given to me by my father was already on the table.
I opened it and saw a phone in it. I understood the assignment of the phone. It was only to be used during an emergency with anything pertaining to the mission and nothing else. There was also a small gun in the briefcase with a silencer in it. I tucked it away in a safe place.
laid on the hard crusty bed in an attempt to take a nap. I closed my eyes and was about to get some sleep when a loud bang on the door fluttered my eyes open.
Fuck!!
The person on the door better be here for a good reason or I might be forced to take a head.
I strode to the door and yanked the door open to meet a blonde hothead standing before me.
She scurried in, slightly pushing me away in the process.
Really?
I snickered as I turned to her.
"After a brutal display earlier,you figured it's right to disturb my sleep huh?"
I mumbled under my breath as I held her gaze but she was quick to avert hers away.
"Uhm,I came to apologize. I had no idea you were a relative.."
"So?"
I cut her off before she could finish.
"Huh?"
She muttered,confused.
"So?"
I asked again
"I'm sorry"
She said with a sigh.
"You know, interrupting my sleep in an enough reason for me to kill a person"
Her eyes widened in shock as she let out a let gasp.
"You bit me,interrupted my sleep. What do you think I do to you?
I took a step towards her and she recounted hers backwards. I took another step and she did the same. I did and did,she did and did until she felt her back caress the wall.
My eyes bore intensely into hers and she quivered under the scrutiny of my gaze.
"I'm sorry, I'll like to go now"
Her words came in a rush and she tried to walk off but I held her back and pinned her back to the wall.
"You haven't answered my question yet blondie.
"What do you suggest I do to you?"
Silence..the only sound was her muffled breathing.
"Playing mute now? You were more interesting earlier. Now that I think of it,you've gotten my interest. Wanna know what happens to people I'm interested in huh?"
I asked as my thumb traced her chin and she shivered. My gaze darted on her. Her lips,full and pink seemed to pout with an invitation making my finger itch to tangle in her hair and draw her in for a kiss.
Uhm..
"You know,I really doubt that you're ever related to my father"
She half yelled and I chuckled.
"Not mute after all"
" And I regret wasting my time to apologize. Now let me go"
She pushed me off and without another glance,rushed out of the room.
"Interesting.."
I muttered under my breath as I rubbed my temple gently
