VENDETTA: BETRAYED BY MY MAFIA BOSS

6

Enzo was walking slowing with the female paramedic but this time it seemed like they both had disposed their uniforms and were on regular clothes.

They both wore all black, Enzo grey sweat shirt and black pants while the girl was wearing a black crop top which made her stomach visible and her cute abdomen got the attention of any one who came across her, with a black leather jacket and a trouser of the same color she rocked her outfit with heels with made her tall, almost as tall as Enzo, her hairstyle flaunted her collar bone generously and made her heart shaped face glow alongside her prominent cheekbones, her hair was styled like the crown of the summer.

They got to a parking lot where Enzo had parked his sport car, Enzo hands over the briefcase to her.

He then goes round his car to get to the back where he opens his trunk and grabs his suitcase which he used to package his sniper rifle.

He opens the zip and replaces the bullet which he had collect earlier from the ambulance and closes the suitcase before jamming his trunk, he heads over to her and handles over the suitcase to her as well.

“Where do you think you are going to?” she asked.

“I have something to catch up to, Antonella I would really appreciate if you help me not be late.” Enzo's face blank

“How is that my business? does it have anything to do with me?” Antonella rolled her eyes.

“I’m sorry, I don’t quite understand what you are saying” Enzo replied looking a bit confused.

“povero ragazzo. (Poor boy)” Antonella chuckles.

“It seems someone has been skipping his Italian classes” Antonella voice laced with mockery.

She used an awkward Italian accent which made the English sound a little bit funny, Enzo just stood there and smiled at her.

“What are you laughing for? I speak better English than you speak Italian, I’ve never been to the US but you... you have been here, how long? 5? 10? No 15 years. And you can’t speak Italian to save your life Dickhead!” Antonella trolled Enzo

“Watch your tongue little miss... I don’t have a very good sense of humor.” Enzo proceeded with a straight face

“Oh sì papà... Your baby has been a bad girl." Antonella replied. Her eyebrows raised.

She pushed her body towards him wrapping her arms around his neck and staring straight to his eyes, there was a moment of awkward silence before they began to kiss.

“I’m really enjoying this but I sincerely have to go... we could continue this some other time” Enzo sighed, scratching the back of his head.

The words that came out from his mouth just made Antonella go cold and it was visible that her mood her changed.

She jumped down from back of the car and slowly grabbed the suitcase

“I guess you have more important things to do... more important people to be with right now.” Antonella said, her lips curling downward.

She was about to take her leave but Enzo grabbed her hand

“Come on, don’t be like that, you know that’s not true, I just made a bet with a friend and if I don’t take my leave now, I might as well lose.” Enzo gazed directly into her eyes.

Enzo grabbed her waist and pulled her closer to him, her back pressed against his chest.

“You know daddy will always make it up to you.” Enzo whispered into Antonella’s ear.

“I hate you so much.” Antonella rolled her eyes.

“That’s no way to talk to your daddy, you know you can be grounded for that, if you know what I mean.” Enzo chuckles.

His face graced with a smile and a wink, Antonella on hearing this could not hide her amusement,

Her lips stretched upwards from ear to ear, she walks towards Enzo and hugs him tightly.

“You have just been acting strange lately, I don’t seem to understand why or what is going, I just really miss being with you.” Antonella released a deep breath while still hugging him tightly.

“Don’t worry, a time will come when we won’t have to part ways and we will always be together” Enzo bit his lower lip.

“Promise?” Antonella gasped.

“Yes, I promise... it might even be sooner than you expect” Enzo smirks which made Antonella's face beam even more than before.

"When will you tell my father about us?

“What did you just say? to who? your father? Are you kidding me? I know you hate me but I didn’t know you wanted me dead, if your father ever finds out about us. I would be dead before sunrise." Enzo's brows furrows, loosening his grip on her, this statement broke Antonella’s heart.

“We can handle him, we can fight, we will run far away from him where nobody will ever find us , we will....” Antonella spoke rapidly before Enzo cuts her off and interrupts

“Your father is the most feared mafia boss in Europe, I’ve seen the way he treats people who betray him and I don’t want to be on that end."

“And you are the most feared assassin in the whole wide world , do I need to remind you who you are brother? The Gunman, Ghostshot, you stand here and talk to me about danger, when we both know you are the danger." She sneered.

"Nobody, absolutely nobody would want to pick a fight with you, you are every man’s worst nightmare and you want to play dead now like a coward.” Antonella softly slaps Enzo's chest while he just stood there and watched.

“And you talk about betrayal, how is falling in love with me betrayal? We would have never conquered the blacksmiths without you. We would have never seized iron heights without you. You are my father’s greatest weapon and ally and you know it.” Antonella eyes burning with fury ready to battle any argument Enzo was planning on bringing forth.

Enzo who was reserved just took a deep breath, he was about to say something his watch started buzzing he had 5 minutes left on the alarm he had set on his watch and would now need to leave.

“Let’s talk about this later, please I would catch up with you later today.” Enzo caresses her cheeks before planting a kiss on her lips.

He enters his car and drove off but Antonella just stood, the smoke from the exhaust filled the air, she watched until his car was out of sight, she seemed angry about having to postpone the conversation.
