His Mafia Bride

Alina

Once I had made it outside, I kept on running as fast as my legs could carry me. I was very weary and tired but the race for survival was one I couldn’t give up on.

I ran holding back my flood of tears. I had no idea where I was going neither did I carry a single thing with me. I looked like a mad and dirty woman that just escaped the mental asylum.

But still, I ran so fast with the fear that Dante might just pop out from anywhere. My adrenaline filled me up and my heart beat increased tremendously.

After a while of running down the long lonely road of this posh gated community, I approached civilisation and slowed down in my steps.

I panted heavily and tried catching my breath as I walked. I noticed the odd stares I was getting from people. They were probably wondering why I looked so unkept and dirty but I didn’t mind their curious orbs.

I kept on walking frantically, zoning out anyone who tried to talk to me.

I still wasn’t safe. Hell this was still Dante’s territory. I needed to get as far away as I can from this area.

I spotted a parked taxi and quickly made my way to it. Probably, he can take me far away from here and then I’ll try using his number to call my father and inform him about my situation.

Just the thought of my father ignited anger in me.

“Hello you need a ride?” The young driver asked with a charming smile.

I nodded and he quickly pushed open the front door for me. I got inside and sighed a breath of relief.

“Where to ma’am?” He asked gearing up the engines.

I was dumbstruck. I didn’t know where to go.

All I know was that I needed to get far away from here and away from Dante’s murderous clutches.

“Take me far away from here” I told him.

He nodded and immediately drove off speedily.

“Woah slow down. I didn’t say you should kill me” I chided him. I had just escaped death, I didn’t want to die again.

“I’m sorry” he abruptly apologised. I watched the young man drive with his full gaze on the road and anxiety began creeping into me.

He seemed anxious, his eyes seemed restless and it looked like he was on the edge.

When he noticed my unwavering gaze on him, he began making small talks as if in a bid to distract me from his restless state but I wasn’t buying it.

Something felt amiss. My guts told me something was wrong.

“What’s wrong with you?” I called him out for his strange behaviour.

“I don’t understand you” he replied.

“Since we started driving, you’ve been behaving weird and giving off a dark aura” I told him very bluntly.

“I’m fine ok. I’m just tired. Today has been so hectic for me. You know the work of a taxi driver never ends” he smiled nervously.

His reply only heightened my curiosity.

“Are you sure?”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

“Yes” He replied back softly and his features relaxed.

Still a bit uneasy, I focused my attention on the road and minutes passed by as we drove in silence.

“Hey where are we going?” I inquired.

He didn’t give any response.

“I said where are we going?” I raised my voice higher feeling panic settling within me.

“You don’t have to know where we are going Alina” he mentioned my name giving me a fright and a gasp.

Who was this man?

“What do you want from me? How do you know my name?” I asked, my fear building up.

He gave no response but instead accelerated the car the more. My heart sank and my stomach dropped.

What the hell is going on?

“Let me go. Stop this car” I said urgently trying to mask my scared profile but he didn’t listen.

“Please let me go please. Let me go down” I pleaded with tears streaming down my cheeks but he gave no reply.

Overwhelmed with anger and frustration, I quickly rolled down the window of the car and began yelling for help.

As quickly as I had done that, the young man raised it up again from his end.

“Quit wasting your energy and save it for where I’m taking you to” he spat.

I sobbed defeatedly and buried my face in my hands. Who is this man and what does he want from me? Where is he taking me to?

Suddenly my body shook with fear and my nerves wrecked.

Could he be from Dante?

Did Dante send him to lookout for me incase I escaped?

But that’s not possible. He wasn’t even driving towards Dante’s mansion, he was going to a different direction so who was this man?

“Please let me go. Please I beg you. I swear won’t tell the police just let me go” I pleaded with a heavy heart.

Silence was his reply and I felt my anger soar.

“Let me the fuck out of your damn car!” I shouted. He only clenched his jaw and accelerated the car speed.

Overwhelmed with trepidation, I immediately began hitting on the car door hoping it won’t budge but it didn’t.

“He is kidnapping me someone help me!” I yelled, hitting my hands on the windows in such a vigorous and fierce manner.

“Crazy girl. Nobody can hear you” he scoffed at me, not even glancing at my direction.

I quickly began to pummel him with fists, hitting him so hard whilst groaning and crying bitterly. The car swerved repeatedly as he tried to get me off him whilst still maintaining his hold on the car.

“Get the fuck off me crazy bitch!” He yelled.

“You fucking drop me cunt! Drop me now. You are the crazy one!” I screamed as I continued hitting him to the best of my ability.

“Goddammit!” He raged, stepping on the breaks and bringing the car to a sharp halt.

I panted like a wounded beast, my heated orbs on him watching his next action.

“Let me go now!” I yelled hitting him again repeatedly.

It was a tussle between us. I punched and hit as hard as I could, screaming whilst at it for anyone to hear us.

“You crazy ass bitch” he gritted before he connected my face with a cloth.

I let out muffled screams in fear as he pressed it against my face, trying so hard to choke me.

I tried so hard to push him off me but he overpowered me and made sure to suffocate me so much that my head spinned and soon enough, I welcomed in the darkness.

DANTE

“You all are fools! Imbeciles! I hired a bunch of imbeciles and idiots!” I raged and frothed like a mad beast.

My angry tone echoed through the walls of the mansion. I had all my men in the house arrayed before me and they all had their gaze downcasted as I thundered fire and brimstones at them.

“So you mean under your fucking noses, both Alina and my maids escaped!?” I yelled more, my veins throbbing and my blood toppling.

Anger was an understatement of what I felt right now. I felt so murderous and blood thirsty. My eyes had a fury of indignation burning within them and my nostrils flared with each word I spoke.

My orbs were so bloodshot, enough to scare the wits out of someone.

My restless feet walked around the hall, my anger rising with each breath. A grenade was exploding in my head and I just wanted to kill somebody right now.

The horror stricken underbossess stood frigid and also rigid. Nobody dared uttered a word in their defence. The incidence had left them all stuperfied and lost for words.

How did Alina, Mariposa and Naomi all escape this heavily guarded mansion and none of these buffoons can give an account of what happened?

I came back home ready to execute that whore yet I met my men searching tirelessly all over the mansion’s vicinity and when I inquired, the fuckers told me Alina and the maids had escaped!

Fucking how did that happen?!

“So none of you can give an account of what happened here this evening?” I asked, my tone frightfully low.

Knots tied, tremor rose as well as anxiety. Panic became the ambiance and hearts sank.

“Ok fine” I smiled maniacally. In a fluid motion, I brought out my gun and fired two shots at a guard.

What followed next was his lifeless body falling to the ground and creating a loud thud that literally shook the air around.

“Since you all are very stupid, I’ll make sure I teach you all lessons you would never forget in your entire lives. Incompetent fools” I scowled.

“I give you all just seventy-two hours to find my wife and my maids. You must bring them back here dead or alive! Else I swear I’ll shoot all of you and send assasins to each one of your fucking families and have them pass through hell!” I thundered.

Sweat coated my features and my Adam’s apple gobbled.

“Get the fuck out of here and clean up this trash!” I yelled at them.

I watched them scamper about and matched back upstairs furiously.

That bitch escaped from me and those maids helped her but how?!

Fuck.

Alina can run but she can’t hide from me for too long.
