Chapter 60 ANGER
Chapter 60 ANGER
Dimitri
Cold.
So fucking cold.
I had never felt like this in a pretty long time.
Shocked by someone's death that I almost lost my stamina and stance.
This is absolutely colder than I imagine.
I stood right there at the back of the truck with the club in my hand as I stared at the head in the box.
It was dry and pitiful. The whole body had been severed into pieces obviously but only his head and arms were sent to me.
A dark but powerful message.
I didn't even notice when the club in my hand fell flat and the sound rang in my head like a bell calling one to order.
My thoughts had sank deep on the very first murder that built me into this fearless and unbothered freak show.
I was born into the Mafia family. A messed up one if you'd ask me.
“Hey….don't you dare come crying to me! You sound just like your mother..” the voice of my father, Herod the Mindless, rented at me.
He got that name from the streets. He was a war thug. A violent freakishly who never cared about anything.
“Father….this is not my fault,” Sixteen year old lanky me would object whenever he sounded like that.
“So it is my fault then that you allow a set of wretched boys bully you and beat you up in this manner???! How amny times do I have to come to your school to correct this?”
“There was never a time I was called by your school that you had beaten up someone or done a great harm!!” My father would hiss at me.
Thrown into a state of inner conflict and disappointment, I would fall to my knees and bang my hand on the bare floor multiple times till I bled.
“That's all you can do. Hit the ground cause it is the easiest opponent for you…You are nothing but a weakling, son!”
“.....and weaklings get bullied till forever!” He added.
He spat and walked out, leaving me right there, alone and sad.
The next day was a force awakening. The night before was a cold one, evil and assuring.
“I won't disappoint father. I won't,” I said to myself.
Chanting the same words from the night to sleep to the morning I'm awake.
It was a wild determination yet to be fully seen. I was on the school street that very day and those set of guys were onto their usual.
Lord knows I passed slowly and carefully without interfering but they had always been on my case like I am an easy target.
“Ooh, there goes the soft teddy bear,” they all bursted into a loud laughter. At this point, I had picked up the pace and walked hurriedly, hoping to get to the school gate before them.
Perhaps the school security would save my ass.
“Hey, where the heck do you think you are going? You think you can walk past us without greeting or what?” One of the boys blurted out angrily.
“Please just let me be. I don't want any trouble,” I said as I walked hurriedly.
Before I knew what was happening, they cornered me amd pushed me to the ground.
“Oh look,.looks like the teddy boy got attended to…look! The last injury is no longer there,” another one said in a really annoying tone.
I laid on the ground right there, staring at the boys as they all mocked me. It was a shameful moment.
I kept mumbling those cowardly words, “Lord, please don't let them come near me.”
I guess the Lord wasn't on seat when my prayers were offered that very second…
“Pick him up, Jason,” one of the boys ordered.
I tried holding on so I would be difficult to lift but it just made things worse.
“Blaargh,” A hard slap hit my face that moment.
“Let me go!” I screamed as they pulled me up.
They held me up. The tight grip on my head almost made me groan evey second.
I tried pleading for my life but a hard push hit my belly even before I could say anything.
Then arose that feeling. This awkward but good feeling.
I don't know where it came from but it felt good and it took o wr me like a demon possessing a child.
I snapped that minute. “Don't fucking touch me!!” I said in a loud and angry tone.
They all laughed out. That fucking wicked laughter that gets you vexed.
“Soft teddy boy is suddenly feeling like a champion or what??”
‘My name is Dimitri. Don't call me otherwise,” I replied in a stern voice.
I presume that must be the demon indie of me talking.
I was clearly shut out within myself. I felt like a totally different person amd I wa just ready to fight for myself.
I took my stance as the voice of my father kept ringing aloud in my head…”Weakling! Weakling!! Weakling!!”
Without further hesitation, I grabbed him by one of the neck and choked him out.
I was middle of a struggle with the other boy holding my arm when I discovered his pen was hanging out of his pocket.
I grabbed it immediately and with a shut eye, I stabbed him by the side of his neck.
Blood gushed out like a stream of rushing waters.
Oh my God!
“What have you done?” He cried out.
I stood there and watched him bleed.
There was this unexplained joy in my mind as I saw how helpless he laid there, trying to call for help but couldn't speak.
His other friends ran off, screaming.
I stood there and watched with a serious look on my face like I was waiting to see his end.
And right there, it was. Death staring me bloodshot in the eye.
The boy had died and there was no struggling anymore.
He laid in peace and I watched the pool of blood flow towards my brown leather shoes where I stood.
Cold.
That was the sudden temperature.
Everything suddenly cleared off my eye and it became so cold around me.
I killed the motherfucker…
“Boss…”
“My Lord..”
Josef's voice snatched em out of my imagination as I sotto there blank and cold headed.
“What should we do??”
“That is Mario..they killed him, Boss,” he uttered with a drop of tear from his right eye.
“They killed my boy….they fuckng killed him….and not just that, they butchered his whole body!!” I groaned out.
“Roberto DeLuca did this to him…..after I fucking signed a peace deal with my daughter in his custody. He killed my man…!!!”
“He is gonna pay for this. Sicily will pay for this. Right now, I am going to take every single thing he has up to the very last..”
“He won't see me coming but he would know I am…the only one..the only Mafia King..never to be tested!!”
