Chapter 30: Are We Safe Here?

Sophie

Nathan stopped in his tracks and tensed before he glanced over his shoulder. His brows were lifted when he turned around and my eyes widened when the bruises were very clear on his neck. It looked very sore and very alarming at the fact that this happened to him.

“I am glad you asked, Sophie, my sweet angel.” He said with a smile. He stepped closer to me and placed both his hands on my arms as he watched me with a loving stare.

“It shows that you really care about me.” He pulled himself close to me and kissed my lips.

I pulled away from him and watched him again, determined for an answer because I want to know if Romano had done this.

“Please, tell me what happened?” I said and caressed his cheek.

“Are we safe here? Are you safe here?” I asked with a quizzical expression.

I was pretty much convinced that Romano had done this because there was no one that could get past him without the person being dead. There was not a day that goes by that I see him as the one to come home injured or threatened because he was dangerous, spoiled and very demanding. To see him with a huge wound on his neck today was very surprising to me, however, I felt so guilty about this because someone must have died from this, I am sure of it.

“Of, course, we were safe, Sophie but I was going to tell you something. Well, it supposed to be a surprise for our wedding but I will just tell you now.” He said, I furrowed my brows and watched him again to figure out what he was talking about.

“It is our wedding tomorrow and after we get married, we won't return back to this mansion. We will be moving into our very own house, away from everyone else, darling.”

My heart dropped to my stomach for the nth time today, I couldn't keep up. If I was going to have a house with him, I would definitely be trapped but the only difference would be that my prison would increase in size. I blinked a couple of times and realized they were heavy with tears, he was now ripping me apart from my family, from my mother. He caressed this thumb on my cheek when my tears had fallen out already, his touch brought me out of my reverie and it broke my heart because this was my reality.

“Don’t cry, darling. I promise to keep you safe and happy throughout everything. Please don't cry.”

I clenched my jaws and scoffed inwardly to myself because that was one of the many lies he had told me yet and not one of them has he proven to me that he kept his promises. There was never going to be a day where he kept his promises because he was a liar. He was an abusive man and a rapist and the sad thing about this was that I was the one in this world to endure this.


Nathan pov

“Nathan, I can confirm that it was him who we saw in that shop that day.”

“I knew it!” I growled as I slammed my fists on the table while my raging anger just exploded inside me. I clenched my jaws as I glared at the floor, trying to concentrate on my control of the anger that was about to get the best of me at any moment.

Romano should be dead and Gabriel had one fucking job that he didn't even finish properly. Gabriel always underestimates me which is why I despise him. His mafia work is shit because he can't even complete a job properly and his orders are feeble just like his mind, it was just a matter of few days now and then, he will just watch his mafia crumble to the fucking floor where it belongs right under my feet. I will take everything that belongs to him and then insert the amoi of bullets I think he deserves into his body and dump it in the water. I have desired for this day to come for a really long time now and the fact that it is coming in a few days really exhilarated me because be was going to finally fuck off out of our lives.

“What the fuck is going on here?” 

All heads turned to the door and immediately, I clenched my fist as Gabriel stood there with a determined facial expression. My eyes just rolled back as my body experienced the chills from my raging anger, I wanted to kill him right now. I closed my eyes, getting rid of the urge of not to react right now when I should because this idiot couldn't do one job he needed to do years back. Fucking bastard.

“It has been confirmed that it was in fact Romano who was present at the shop.” I gritted through my teeth.

“He was busy blowing up the fucking building rather than being dead!” I growled, he clenched his jaws and glared at me with so much hatred.

“I am working on it, so there is nothing for you to do.”

“Really? What about Benjamin?” I asked, frustrated.

He glared at me again like an animal ready to eat his prey. I leaned against the table and folded my arms against my chest as I watched him just crumble apart. This was his biggest weakness and I knew that very well which is why I have used it against him.

“What are you talking about?”

“I don't know, Gabriel. Why don't you tell me?” 

It was my turn to test him as he had always done it to me and I fucking hated it. He began to tense around me again and I scrutinized his face with every joy I could fucking experience, this was something I wanted to do ever since I met this man. I just wanted to wrap my hands around his neck and apply pressure until he stops squirming.

“What? Are you telling me that you don't know who Benjamin is?” I scoffed.

“Come on, Gabriel, what do you think that I am stupid?” I leaned off the table and began to walk closer to him but he just seemed agite the more I provoked him.

“You see, I did a little research of my own and found out that Benjamin is actually the bet..”

He shot me a piercing glare as his anger ripened before he took two long strides towards me. He grabbed my neck and tightened his grip around, my jaws clenched when I began to find it difficult to breathe. He was not going to beat me like this, I will definitely kill him.

“You need to watch what you are fucking saying, little boy. Have you forgotten who the boss is, huh? Your fucking superior!” He grunted through his anger that I was sure he was going to end me here because of how difficult I was finding it to breathe.

“If you were not marrying my daughter, I would have finished you right here is this second.” He let go of my neck and flared his nostras get glared at me 

“My past is none of your fucking business, if I wanted my past to be known to you, I would have taught you it.”

He was about to leave the room after he finished his abuse on me but turned around.

“Make sure to cover up the mark on your neck for your wedding before your big day arrives.” He said and left.

I watched him just leave the room, I growled and slammed my fist back onto the table and trembled with angwe. He has underestimated me the whole time I have known him, enough is enough, I am going to definitely end him in a way that was unimaginable because he fucking deserve every pain that exists in this world. I will ruin everything that belongs to him and fucking end him in a way that he never thought of eveb doing to me. His wife was going to watch it and so will his daughter.

I am going to fucking kill him, I am going to fucking give him a miserable death that is his soul will be rejected in hell. Gabriel, you are done for.
