Chapter 91 Always with my Elara
Chapter 91 Always with my Elara
“You are safe now,” Adrian said to me as he wrapped his hand around me and pulled me closer to him. I glanced at Mom settled in the other seat, beside Javier, she held his hand, I could tell she was very shaken up, she was scared too and her eyes never stopped staring out the window, I could hear her breathe all the way from here.
We did it, we saved ourselves, I saved her, I saved her baby boy from being damaged forever, I watched as she turned to look at me and she had a smile on her face, I gave her an equal smile too.
“She was alive all this while,” Adrian asked and I nodded at him.
“Papa would have been elated if I had come home with her. She still can’t believe he is dead, and she won’t say it but there is a part of her that is relieved she won’t have to see him because she is scared; scared of what he will think of her because she has a kid for a man he hates.”
“He won’t have cared,” Adrian said and I smiled at him, he knew Papa as much as I did, he wouldn’t have cared, he would have stayed with her no matter what happened, he would have told her how much he loved her.

Right now we were still in the forest, inside his car; we were waiting for his men to drag out Gabriel, I am not going to leave without knowing that son of a bitch is dead or at least knowing the fact that he is here with us, trapped and drugged, because we deserve closure; he deserves to be punished for what he has done, the horrible things he has caused and she deserves to be the one to make sure he gets the punishment.
I wanted that as much as he did.
“Do you think she will want to stay with us, I told her if she didn’t, we would give her a life outside of the mafia and it’s going to be way because according to the documents; she has been dead for a long time.” I whispered as I stared at him.
I wanted her to stay, I wanted us to bond, I wanted her to know more about me, I wanted her to be able to know how I lived without herd I wanted her to see all the pictures papa and I took, the albums we had kept all these years, I wanted her to watch the home movies and think she was there, I wanted her to be a part of my life so badly yet I knew I can’t be selfish, I had to be smart about what I wanted to, if she wanted to be let go, I will let her go with the promise of coming every Christmas to be with her.
“She will have to think about it, we can’t imagine the trauma your mom has been through, the things he made her go through, right now she is not the woman you used to know Elara, she turned her into something else, someone who is scared of him,” Adrian said and I nodded
I was about to speak when I heard an annoying alarm go off on his phone, this can’t be good especially when he had the biggest frown on his face.
“The house, someone is invading to, they are trying to save Harry.” He said and my breath hitches.
I didn’t want that to happen, he can’t be saved, they all needed to be dead if we were ever going to have the life we are meant to have.
I glanced at mom who was staring at us.
“We don’t leave, Harry’s men will come for him, if they take him, so be it but we cam still have the upper hand, if we have Gabriel; he knows every Harry secret, I know my uncle better than anyone else and he won’t work with Harry unless he has dirt on him, that way he knows he always had the upper hand,” I stated.
When they find out the truth, they will hand over Harry themselves, they will want him dead and they won’t care if he dies happy or not.
I stared at Adrian while I waited for him to make a decision when I heard a loud noise, my breath hitches as I stared at him, the noise echoed through the place a few times before I rolled down the window and I saw smoke filled the sky.
“Mom look,” Javier said and I saw smoke all over the front of the car too.
Fuck.
The house, it’s on fire, I didn’t move nor did Adrian, did his men start the fire, he didn’t seem fazed, he didn’t behave like he was scared, all he did was stare at the sky, and we watched as the smoke started to clear only for new flames to invade the place again.
“They got him,” Adrian said with a smile on his face. “They got the bastard and they are bringing him in.”
“They got Gabriel,” Mom asked and we nodded, she looked like a wave of relief had washed over her, she had the biggest smile on her face, I have never seen her smile so much, and beside her was Javier who had an equally big smile.
I can’t imagine how many years she has wished for this to happen, I can’t imagine how many times she has dreamed about it, how many times she has thought about escaping and maybe she tried to leave a few times until he made her think she can’t even if she wanted to.
We have the bastard and soon we will have Harry.
“Make sure Harry will never be able to leave the city, that way we would have an idea of where he could be,” I said and he nodded.
I wanted this to be over, I wanted to hurt both of them with my hand and make them pay.
