"Because I'm a bloody mafia leader. I belong to such a darkness where I have to kill to stay alive."
Pin drop silence covered the room. No one said anything. She was looking at my face. I could feel her intense stare, but I refused to look at her.
"And why are you a mafia leader?" Anna was becoming calmer and calmer, and my heart was freezing slowly.
"Because my father was the previous leader."
"Why did you leave me without telling me five years ago? Is this mafia thing related to our separation?" she asked everything one by one.
"Yes."
"Did your family force you?" she asked once again.
Damn! Why was this woman catching everything so easily? I needed to tell her the first word and she completed the sentence easily.
"Yes."
"Did my mother know you were going to be a mafia leader?" she interrogated. "Yes."
"Okay, where is your family now? Do they know about us now?"
"My mother, sister, brother - all of them left this world already, so I don't have any family other than you." These words were hard for me to say. I was such an unlucky son and brother.
"How?" This time, she sounded different. Her coolness went off. "My father killed them." My grip on her waist tightened.
"Why?" She sounded furious. "For his power."
"Okay, one last question. Are you ever going to kill me for power, as your father did?"
My eyes grew wider as I looked at her in shock. "Love!" I almost growled. "I would kill myself before thinking about something like this."
"If not, then I'm okay with everything. But remember, never let anyone hurt you,"
she said and got rid of my hand.
My hands were suddenly empty. What just happened?
She walked to the closet and took out a set of clothes before going into the bathroom.
What just happened? my mind was still roaming around the question.
God, dammit! Did she forgive me or not? I failed to understand. Now I was confused. My wife was not like other women. I expected her to scream or fear her monster husband. Seeing her so calm, I pinched myself to believe it wasn't a dream.
I heard the sound of a tap running. She was taking a shower. I walked to the bathroom and tried to open the door, but she locked the door. Damn, this woman was trying to kill me with shock.
I will die on her hand one day - that's for sure.
I walked back to the cabinet and took out a key. If she wants to keep me out, she can just dream on.
I walked back to the bathroom door and opened the bathroom door. The front scene took me off guard.
I stepped inside and all of their eyes fell on me.
"Dad, I need your help right now." I ignored everyone. These people were nothing more than fucking bastards. For the power, they would even kill themselves, but that's what we need in our profession.
Emotions were fucking messed up things in our life. I was not a fool to get emotional for anything, I needed power and for power, I could even kill my father, and he knew this better than anyone. That's why, he kept me with him. He even killed my mother for power.
"Okay, my daughter wants to talk to me. We'll talk another day," he ordered and one by one, all left, leaving only the two of us left alone.
"So, my princess. What do you need?" he asked calmly.
"Blaze killed all of our men and caught our spy. Now he knows that we sent our men to kill that bitch," I said, and he stood up from the shock.
"What? Lucia, are you sure?" He couldn't believe such a perfect plan suddenly went in vain.
"Rocky informed me just now."
"Damn, that bastard is too hard to control already. Now he will come behind us. Fucking hell. I sent you all the best men. How did this happen?" He was growling like a madman.
"I know, Dad. I think we should listen to Dylan." I know my father's ego was going to come and hinder our plan, but I decided to remain stern.
"But -"
"No, Dad. We need to get rid of that woman at any cost. Only in this way, I can control him, father. We need him. I need him."
My father looked at me and then nodded - that's what I needed.
