Filed to story: Bring It On My Mafia Life Novel (Rhea & Lukas)
Rhea bet Grace wouldn’t say how lucky she was if she knew she was dating a Mafia Lord. Yep, no life is perfect no matter how it seems, she wished to tell her yet kept it that way. After all, they wouldn’t be seeing each other after this.
Fred was the one driving which meant that she didn’t deal with his flirting or annoying stare, but once in a while, their gaze would connect through the rear view mirror and she would glare at him, hoping he kept his eyes on the road and not get them killed.
And so the journey went because an hour later, he announced dramatically, “And now, welcome to the house of doom,”
At once Rhea lifted her head to the outside through the window and gulped, now she saw why Lukas was worried about her.
Aside from the fact that Daniel lived on the outskirts of the city, ten-foot-high walls surrounded the inside that they were yet to see.
In one word, this place was a fortress, and once let in, it was difficult to get out without their approval. Rhea turned and her gaze connected with Mimi’s and she could see the fear in the girl’s eyes as well.
Threat
Fred handed a slip to the soldier at the entrance and after they did a little inspection on their faces, they let them in and Rhea and Mimi were able to breathe. However, both of them knew that this was just the beginning.
“I hate this place,” The other lady seated at the back hissed, “It’s so scary and intimidating, not to mention that the men here carry guns around. If I wasn’t mistaken, I would say they are the Mafians? Why does the boss even send us here? I’m so scared for my life,” She complained.
“The boss sends us here because the money they pay puts food on his table and pays his bills and he, in turn, sends our paycheck, does that answer your question?” said the other guy that wasn’t creeping Rhea out nor did he stare at her in a way that made her uncomfortable. If anything, he minded his business.
“He’s right, Miriam,” Grace said this time, “Whether they are the Mafia or not, all that matters is that we do our business and get out of their hair, period. They wouldn’t do anything to us if we don’t offend them and hopefully, we don’t.”
And at that statement, Rhea and Mimi looked at each other once more. If only the crew knew they were here to do exactly what they dreaded, offending the Mafia, they would cast them off immediately.
Fred drove through the miles and miles of land separating the properties. Rhea had once thought Lukas’s security consciousness was too much, but compared to this, the vast acres of land that kept anyone from coming top close to the property was just paranoid.
Just how many people had Daniel offended that he would rather stay isolated from the world than risk his life forming a social relationship? It was just too much and the severity of this mission was beginning to dawn on them.
Just like Lukas said, one mistake and they were dead. With the many empty lands before them, Rhea had no doubt that there was plenty of space to bury all six of them – Yes, the life of the innocent cleaners were in their hands as well.
Finally, they reached the property and Rhea knew the moment they had been waiting for was here. She fingered the USB and lighter in her hand and though she was confident in her skills, the soldiers at the entrance scared her.
…..
But their presence sobered her at once, reminding her that she can’t die, especially not here. She refused to became manure for Daniel’s garden. Although she had not met the man face to face aside from pictures Lukas showed before going on this mission, Rhea hoped she doesn’t meet him.
However, if she does get married to Lukas, that meant the man was her psycho father in law. Okay, that was a subject she was not going to approach for now. Future problems would be solved in the future, for now, there was her present ones.
“Alright, hand over your phones, people!” Grace ordered, bringing out a small bag that she would use to collect them all and probably, hand them over to the guard that had step forward, waiting for them to alight.
“And this is one of the reason I hate this place,” Miriam murmured, putting both her phone and purse in the bag.
“Wait, there’s another?” Mimi asked out of curiosity mixed with dread.
“Oh, you bet,” Miriam sneered and Rhea knew that anger was not directed at them, but the three soldiers waiting for them at the entrance.
They all came down as soon as Grace was done collecting their devices and she handed it to the soldier, who in turn handed it to the other soldier beside him who left with it. No doubt, he was going to hide it where they couldn’t find it until they were done with the job – as if they could steal it in the first place.
“I see new faces,” said the soldier, who seems to be their leader – or at least, for this search. Rhea had no idea nor did she care. What mattered now was getting inside with the devices undiscovered.
“They’re from our branch abroad,” Grace answered with a furrow on her face when she saw the man approach Jade.
This was not happening, Rhea groaned when the man stood right in front of her, his gun strapped behind his back when he reached out and grabbed her chin, tilting her head from side to side and checking her out as if she was some sort of goods.
Rhea clutched her fist so hard because she was tempted to punch that man right in the face, but she couldn’t. It was at that moment that Rhea realized the privileges she had enjoyed while under Lukas.
These people, they were brutal and savage and had no regard for anybody, especially women, yet Lukas did not subject her to that, if anything, he treated her well and yet, she took liberties with him. If it had been these man, he wouldn’t hesitate to shoot her dead – after having his way with her forcibly. She was lucky with Lukas.
“She’s good product,” The man said suggestively, chewing his gum with a smug grin.
“Get your disgusting hands off me!” Rhea hissed when she couldn’t endure him any longer.
“And feisty as well!” He laughed out aloud, his other teammates joining him.
Animals! Rhea was burning with fury. They should have been taught better manners!
“We are here to do our job, sir!” Grace said sternly, adding immediately, “Surely, you wouldn’t like it if we were to report for harassment,” She tried to threatened him.
However, Rhea knew that was not going to work. These people were on the other side of the law and before Grace would even report them, they would have killed her already. She doesn’t even realize the danger she’s putting herself in by threatening them.
“We are just here to do our job, sir unless you don’t want that and then, we would gladly get back to our boss,” Rhea said, shifting his attention back from Grace to her.
If the news were to get to the boss, David, he was likely going to inform Daniel of the interruptions and the man would get to the root of the matter. In one word, this soldier would be in trouble.
The soldier must have sensed the subtle threat in Rhea’s words because his eyes flashed and he said in a not-so-friendly tone, “Of course not, I would be a fool to interrupt your work, however, these disgusting hands would have to search you thoroughly,”
What Do You Know About Seduction
Arriana could sense the evil intention coming off the man before he even started searching her body. Hence, it seemed as if she was scared when she squeaked, “What? There are no females around to do that? Are you kidding me?!”
The soldier laughed upon seeing the sudden anxiety in her eyes. That was what he wanted in the first place, to invoke fear inside of her. He would use his status to intimidate her and watch her squirm before his sight like a weakling.
Hence, he answered her answer with a shit-eating grin, “What do you think?”
With that look on his face, Dahlia could safely deduce that there was no female around here. Even if there was one, this man would never let her do the job because he now had a vendetta against her.
Rhea didn’t mean to bring attention to herself, but she couldn’t just fold her arms and watch the asshole bully others simply because he was in the position to do so.
“I’m going to enjoy this,” The man rasped, drawing Rhea close to him by the waist, causing her to almost stumble into his chest. Hence before she knew what was going on, his hands were on her body feeling and checking her out.
Rhea had never felt so humiliated until now. Her body seized up when she felt the asshole’s hands on her and she couldn’t even react, not to talk of taking a step or even exhaling. She forgot how to breathe as if doing so would hurt her lungs while the asshole’s hands went down to grip her ass cheeks and squeezed tight.
“Alright, now, that’s enough!” Mimi tried to step forth, but the other soldier put his gun in her way, reminding her that she was equally in a perilous situation and wasn’t better off than her friend. They were determined to bully them to the end.
Although her blood was vibrating with anger, if there was one thing the fool failed to notice in his haste to feel her up was the fact that the devices were wedged successfully between her fingers on both hands as she stood with her hands spread sideways. He made it relatively easy for her and she didn’t even sweat even a bit to hide it.
…..
Okay, maybe, she did sweat a little, but that was only a result of the anger churning inside of her. If there was one thing Rhea was sure of, it was the fact that the fool would pay for this before she would leave here. It was a promise.
