EPISODE 82; LAST EXCERPT
FLASHBACK
After my love encounter with Giovanni, I started avoiding him in every way I could but it all felt like I was just doing in vain cause he always had a way to come back to me and at some point, I started liking him.
I had thought it was just him I fancied but I also found out that I’ve got a deep liking for Aiden. That alone left me so confused about who to choose among them.
It continued that way till it got to the extent that I became caught up in the middle cause I didn’t know who to choose.
Rough and ruthless Aiden suddenly started changing in every way and when I took up the courage to ask him he confessed that it was cause of the love he had for me.
It left me stunned but at the same time made me so happy.
I giggled and almost rushed into his arms but halted and left without uttering a single word when what he did to me then struck me.
He tried running after me but I was faster than him and before he could get to me I was already out of sight.
While running and at the same time crying for what I couldn’t fathom I met Giovanni sitting before a little stream and that night we had a blissful romance that almost led to sex but I was quick to hold myself and leave without also saying a word to him.
For several days that followed both of them tried to know why I acted that way but I didn’t even spare any a glance.
It continued that way until one blessed day.
I was in my room having a nice siesta when a knock landed on my door. Groaning tiredly I asked who the person was and after explaining who she was she mumbled that Lord Aiden wants to see me and I should report to his bedroom at once.
A cold shiver ran down my spine as the only reason I knew he could be calling me for filled my mind. Having no other option but to do as he requested I got to his room and surprisingly he called me in for something else.
“Your first mission has been planned Snipy and you will be leaving at first crow of a cock tomorrow. After certain considerations, I’ve decided to pair you up with Shadow so you will be leaving with her. All details about the mission will be handed to you once you step your foot out of this room. I hate disappointments so show me what you got and make me proud. Good luck. See you when you are back.”
Just as he finished talking he started coughing so immensely. I rushed to him and tried to touch him but he waved at me to go. “I can’t leave you this way” I whispered already in tears and tried to touch him once but to my amazement, he pushed me away so roughly and wailed at me to go.
Having no other option than to obey I walked out in tears and just like he had said a lady met me up and handed an envelope to me. “You leave at first crow in the scheduled transportation means written in that document. Good luck” she said and left before I could say anything.
I shrugged off, nodded to the open air, and started strolling to my room. I got to my room, entered, and sighed out while yawning so loudly.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“You must be feeling so exhausted after learning that you will be going on your first ever mission tomorrow” a voice whispered behind me and I abruptly turned to see Shadow leaning on my door.
My eyes widened and I couldn’t help but think about how she got in.
“You don’t have to worry much about what you have in mind Snipy. I can often be referred to as your direct mistress so I have your room card. I entered your room by using that” she waved the card at me and giggled.
“For days now you’ve been avoiding me. And you’ve also refused to tell me why so what do you want now?”
“Come on baby. Lord Aiden told me that I’ll be going on your first mission with you so I’m here to know what our mission is all about.”
“Once you’ve got a view. You are leaving my room.”
“As you wish” she smirked and together we read the documents.
It was a mission where we are meant to take down a whole mafia gang, burn them and bring back their money.
“Cool. Be ready. And hey, I’m not avoiding you. I’ve just been busy” she muttered and without waiting for my reply walked out.
All through that night I trained and memorized all I’ve learned so far and even before the crow of a cock I was out waiting for Shadow.
She walked out seconds later all dressed up and after filling the private jet with everything needed we left and just as we were midway on the air a cock crowed.
We got to the location and as scheduled killed almost everyone remaining just the Lord of the gang and two gang members. I was about to shoot at them but instead got shot in my arms by someone I thought was my teammate.
A scream tore out of my throat and I landed on the ground feeling so many pains.
“You ain’t smart baby. So you felt I would let you have Aiden all to yourself? You felt you can just come out of nowhere and take away from me someone I’ve suffered with all my life? I used to be his favorite among all but you came and took him away from me! Aiden is mine and mine alone! Go to hell!” She shot at my both legs and I spat out blood feeling so much pain course through me.
She strolled to me, placed the gun on my forehead, cocked it, and just as she was about to pull the trigger a bullet sent her to the ground. I glanced up with the little strength I could muster and there with a gun in her hand was Ariana.
“I told you to be cautious of her but you didn’t listen. See what your foolish love and trust have caused you now. We need to go. But first I need to finish off what you both started.” She shot at the two guys and just as she was about to shoot their Lord he escaped mysteriously.
She shrugged off, packed up all the money into the bag on her back, and helped me stand. We were just about to enter the private jet when a bullet from nowhere hit Ariana and she dropped to the ground and blacked out. I landed back on the ground cause I couldn’t move and gently glanced behind me to see that it was Shadow.
She strolled to me, picked up the money, entered the jet, and left. Slowly, slowly I lost consciousness and everything went blank.
I fluttered open my eyes hours later to see myself in the same place but Ariana was nowhere to be found. Slowly I crawled into the house thanking Jah that we didn’t burn it down and there I stayed till I fully healed.
I went back to the gang but was chased out and when I questioned them on what was going on they told me that Lord Aiden was no longer in charge cause he lost his life while fighting a gang fight and that after he was buried Shadow and Giovanni took over as not just Lord and Mistress but husband and wife.
Tears dribbled down my cheeks at the revelation and I couldn’t help but ask for where he was buried.
They gave me directions and after thanking them I left.
I got there and while grieving for him an unknown man joined me and he told me he has something for me. We left the cemetery and went to a secluded eatery and there he handed me everything Aiden owned and told me the truth about Aiden’s death. It’s indeed true that he was killed by a fellow gang while fighting but he wasn’t himself that day. He was down and Shadow and Giovanni were the ones who leaked the information of his state of health cause they wanted power and authority.
They killed him and took over but to their detriment, Aiden was smart enough to take away everything he owned including the documents of the gang dwelling.
They just lived in it cause they had authority not that they owned it.
I was so pissed by their actions but at the same time amazed at why I was the one he gave everything to. The man who handed it to me saw the expression on my face and as if he could read expressions explained to me that Aiden told him that I’ll surely come back and that whenever I do he should give it all to me cause I’m the only one he loves and trust.
The words melted my heart and brought tears to my eyes cause I didn’t get the chance to confess my feelings to him. That day I swore to take revenge for him and I did.
I killed Shadow and Giovanni, took over the gang, and there I stayed till I decided to leave so that I could build my life, make more money and have my revenge. I had a great conversation with everyone and settled all before leaving. That was how I made my wealth and also how I built my personality.
PRESENT…
“That is my survival story. Hey baby girl I think you got to tell us how you survived. At least before we end this gathering. I’m so hungry” I whispered and yawned loudly but respectfully.
“My survival story isn’t long. The Mafia Lord that you were sent to kill took me away. I woke up in his house alive and sound. When I asked about you he said he couldn’t find you. And that you already left. It took just a few days before we got along although it took a lot cause I hated him while he loved me. An act that left me so surprised cause I had thought he would hate me so deeply. After all, I tried to kill him.”
“It was after he saved me from getting eaten by a wide beast on the day I ran away that I felt his genuine love for me and gave in to him.”
“We had our sweet little moments that I kinda still cherish before he got killed on his way back home by an unknown bounty hunter.”
“It hurt me so deeply that I went on trail for his killer. After several investigations, I found the bounty hunter, tortured him, got some information from him, and killed him.”
“Days passed and just as I was about to take my revenge on the main people that sent him I got the rumor that they were already dead. I never knew you killed them. Yes, Shadow and Giovanni sent the bounty hunter. That’s my little survival story.”
“It was so pleasing to hear all those stories I must confess but then everything that was opened must surely be closed. So I declare this gathering closed at this juncture. Till we meet again guys!”
“Till we meet again!” We all screamed back at Declan as everyone left for their respective homes in fullness of joy and everything went so blank as the air got filled up with the growling of animals and swiveling of trees.
A beautiful night for sweet lovemaking. What do you think? Wink! See you!
THE FINAL END!
