Antonio received a call from Lieutenant Gilbert and quickly drove to the station. When he walked in, his colleagues all stood up and clapped, “Welcome back, Marino.”“We missed you, dude.”“Of course you did,” Antonio muttered beneath his breath before he smiled at them.“Thanks”“Let’s hang out at the bar tonight, okay? There will be some hot chicks,” one of them said, and he nodded.“Marino is a one-woman man; he will never cheat on his woman.”“You know me so well.” “Enzo Marino,” Lieutenant Gilbert called from his office door. Antonio smiled at his colleagues before he went to Lieutenant Gilbert’s office, and Leo was present as well."Sergeant,” Leo saluted with a respectful tone, which made Antonio happy. He nodded and sat next to him.“We are all glad you are back and ready to take on fresh cases.” “Of course, I am here to stay; the shadow is behind bars; one case less to worry about.”“Good, and about the incident, we all apologize for not trusting you." Lieutenant Gilbert ap
Antonio smiled “So her uncle is the colonel?” He chuckled inwardly, guessing he needed her more than he imagined.“You are not done with work?” she asked, and he closed the file.“I am done, shall we?” He turned off the computer, stood up, and picked up his car key before they walked outside.“This is Suzy’s car,” she stated, and he nodded. “She was kind enough to lend me one,” he answered, even though he had zoomed off with her car without asking for permission.“So you drive to your place” He handed the keys to her before he got to the car. Amelia had a confused look. She sat on the driver’s seat and stared at him, confused. “What do you mean by my place?”“Where you live, let’s go, love,” he said, leaning back, and she shook her head.“Why are we going there instead? Shouldn't we be going to your place?” She had missed him, and all she wanted was for him to give her the best sex of her life, but he wanted to go to her place.“I didn't make dinner.”“We could eat out.”“I want homem
Antonio nodded. The mayor’s words angered him, but he refrained from showing them.“You are right, mayor, so what we need is to tighten the security measures in Slovenia.”“And with you on the team, I am sure the country is just fine,” the mayor said before he stood up.“Let’s have dinner, Enzo.”They all sat at the dining table and ate silently. Amelia took off her shoes and rubbed Anthonio’s legs below the table. “How was Enzo in love with such a whore?” he cursed inwardly and smiled at her.Then his phone signaled a new message, and he checked the message, ignoring the fact that the mayor was at the same table as him.[Are you also going to hold my car captive?]It was a message from Suzy; he sighed and realized that everyone was staring at him. "So, sir, I heard the elections are closing by,” he changed the topic.“Yes, and I am counting on your vote.”“Of course, who else could be a better mayor apart from you?” He chuckled, but the mayor shook his head in denial.“I am running f
Antonio shook his head, disappointed. “I had high hopes for you, Gricella.”“I… I am sorry, just the length of time you gave us was too small,” she shivered.“Is that so? You planned to go to the cops, huh?”“No, we will never,” John chimed in; he was already so scared.“Where is the formula?”He knew they took it with them, and he had to punish them so that next time they would think twice before doing such.Gricella took the formula from her pocket and handed it to him. “Space out,” he ordered, and they stared at themselves, confused.“Don't make me repeat myself,” he warned. They stood about a meter from each other.“Now you…” He pointed at Gricella. “You have thirty seconds to choose who dies or you die.”“Huh?” Her eyes widened in shock."One,” Antonio started counting.The boys looked at Gricella with pleading looks and Antonio said, "Two.”He continued; his men had already stood their ground because they knew he wasn't kidding.He kept on counting, but Gricella didn't make a ch
The crisp night air enveloped the city as its inhabitants rested, unaware of the impending chaos that would soon shatter the tranquility.A phone call blared through police and military headquarters, piercing the silence like a siren wail.“Code 111, heavy alert. All units informed.”Within seconds, the once quiet command centers transformed into hives of activity.“Attention, Private First Class Leo, fall in line with your platoon,” a voice echoed from the speaker, and Leo, who had just finished having his coffee, rushed out of the office."Align,” he said, holding his military telephone, and he passed the order.In one minute, they all stood in the hall with other team members. When the lieutenant walked in, he was in his fifties and looked tense. "Where is Sergeant Enzo?” he asked after scanning through the hall. He wanted Enzo to handle the situation because he was reliable.Enzo’s best friend, Leo, raised a hand before saying, “Sergeant Enzo was giving the night off, sir.” He ye
“Standing here today, we report that Sergeant Enzo Marino was arrested just after the death of Judge Walle. Is it connected?” There were a lot of journalists in front of the station waiting for a statement.Enzo was confused as he was dragged to the station by his friend and subordinates. They didn’t even give him a chance to explain what was happening.“Leo, can you explain what's happening?” he asked. Leo was his brother from the orphanage, so if he expected someone to be casual and calm with him, then it was Leo.Leo kept quiet and ordered his men to lock him in the cell. Enzo frowned and kicked the iron door angrily.“What the hell?” He scolded, and Leo frowned before walking closer to him.“This is just the beginning of your misery, for all the lives you took. You will pay for it,” he said, glaring at him angrily. Enzo couldn’t believe the amount of hatred in his friend’s eyes.“Why will I be arrested without evidence? And I need a lawyer,” he said, and Leo smiled.“As if any law
After an hour, the van suddenly stopped as loud gunshots echoed. Leo and his men were alerted; they retracted their weapons and were surprised to see more than five bikes driving toward them. The bikemen were dressed in black with helmets. There were two people per bike.“His people are here, no matter what. Don’t let him escape,” Leo said to his team as they fired at the bikers who kept driving in zigzag to avoid the bullets.They took out their guns and fired at Leo and his team. Leo quickly hid behind a huge pillar as he refilled his gun, shot at the bikes, and succeeded in hitting one of the men.He fell off the bike and positioned his gun to shoot one more time when a voice echoed, “Think before shooting.”Leo gasped when he saw the red dots on him. There was a sniper man somewhere. He knew better than to shoot. So he gave up, and so did his men. The bike men walked to the boot and shot the lock before pulling it open.“Enzo Marino,” one of them called out, and Enzo glared at the
Enzo couldn’t trust Antonio’s words, so he glared at the bikes parked at the shore. “I want the key,” he said, and they understood that he meant the bike.Antonio nodded and signaled one of his men to hand his key to Enzo. He knew that Enzo was just confused and needed to get away, and he was willing to let him go. But Enzo didn’t trust him. Well, it was a wise decision.“Take the key," Enzo ordered Damon, who nodded and held the key.They both walked down the ship to the bike. “Start the bike,” he added, and Damon did as he was told; if Antonio didn’t object to him leaving, it meant he wanted him to leave.So he started the bike, and Enzo pushed Damon away while still pointing the gun at him. “One wrong move..." he warned him, and Damon raised his hands in the air as he took a few steps back.Enzo drove out at full speed. Damon glared at Antonio, who shrugged his shoulders. It was his brother, so he couldn’t hold him hostage. Besides, the whole country was now in search of him, and t
