Henry's eyes blazed with fury through the dimly garden. "Dammit, Jackson, do you have any idea what's been going on here? While I was handling business in Russia, you let things slip!"Jackson stood across from him, his usual calm demeanor strained by Henry's accusation. He didn’t look an inch like one that had blood gushing from his lips. He wiped his mouth and turned to Henry. "I did everything I could, Henry. Things got out of hand, but I've been trying to fix it." The last thing he expected was being questioned like some thief. Henry paced the garden and sat by the concrete seat. Then Henry shot up from the seat, walking over to Jackson. "Fix it? Two of our own turned against us, set a trap! And you didn't see it coming?" The fight between Damian and Marco, the trap set by the rival gang to get them... it's all on you."Jackson's eyes narrowed. "That wasn't my fault. Vinnie and Marco have always been hotheads. And the rival gang was just looking for an opportunity to strike when

That would be the end of her. “Ouch!” she yelled in pain as her legs was caught in a between two sharp branches. She struggled to free herself from its grip but all her efforts were going to vain.“There she is!” She turned to hear them charging towards her. Her heart sink as she kept struggling.

As soon as Hercules and Ruby walked past the gate that night, ruby sighed.“Hey babe, what is wrong?” Hercules questioned. Ruby plastered a big smile on her face. She was happy she agreed to really date Hercules when he asked her out at the hotel. He sure did play a fast joke on her but then he reassured her that he would never take advantage of her. She didn’t know what she would have done without him, especially in moments like this.“Oh it’s nothing” she continued walking like nothing ever happened. Hercules knew she was lying. He stood watching her go. The ruby he knew would immediately be smiling as soon as she woke up. Ruby was a happy soul actually.Hercules' gentle touch stirred Ruby to look up at him. She tried to smile but did an awfully bad job at it. Her eyes fluttered open, her face pale and clammy. "Hey, you were having a nightmare, it was just night mare" he whispered, his brow furrowed with concern.Ruby's breath came in short gasps as she tried to speak, her eyes d

"What happened to you?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.Marissa's eyes welled up, and she collapsed into Ruby's embrace, her body shaking with sobs. "I've been on the streets for days... I didn't know where else to go."“Sshhh its okay baby” she consoled the girl. She never knew that Marissa would still be with Windsor. After she had left the gang, she thought she left too. The maids came along and took Marissa away. They gave her a hot bath and gave her neat clothes. Food was immediately left at the table for her. As Marissa ate hungrily, tears stuck to Ruby’s eyes.

Ruby stood there watching as Marissa ended the call. Just as she turned to leave, she too froze on seeing Ruby. When Marissa regained herself, she looked at everywhere but at Ruby’s face.“How could you Marissa?” Ruby’s voice boomed over the quiet nights. Marissa flinched at the loudness. “We took you in and fed you. Treated you like you are family.” Ruby sneered. Tears burned at the back of her eyes. She had seen this happen time and time gain in the Mafia. Trust was a very heavy and expensive. A big and well feared Mafia lord is nothing without the people he trusts. Ruby had seen maids betray each other because one gang boy or the other. A mafia lord was nothing without, his loyal people.“I have to do this” Marissa finally said, still not looking at Ruby’s face.“Do what? Have you not done enough dirty work? How much did they promise you” ruby said. She swallowed as she got a hold of herself. Marissa was quiet.“You know at Windsor’s they never treated us like people. Why do you li

You have being sighing all night.” Hercules turned to face him. henry looked into Hercules face.“ I no longer trust Jackson” he said. Hercules began by slowly nodding his head. “ okay. This is not really new. As a new Mafia lord, I experienced something like this. I just didn’t know who were my friends or my foe” he said. “ I know that feeling but I also want you to know that it doesn’t last”“what if you have proof?” henry said.“ proof? Proof of what?” Hercules asked. He raised an eyebrow wondering what Henry was talking about.Almost immediately, Henry took out his phone from his back pocket. He scrolled through for a moment, and took out a picture. And so he began to explain all these to Hercules. He explained how very message that had been sent, happened to be the exact truth about

Marcus parked the sleek black sedan a few blocks away from the prison, ensuring no prying eyes would catch him entering. The sweat he had accumulated while stealing out of the house had disappeared. Thanks to the AC. He was dying of anxiety of not seeing her. He looked from left to bright and sighed. His informant was right. Now was the right time.The night was chilly, and the streets were deserted, except for the occasional patrol car. He adjusted his coat, the weight of the situation settling on his shoulders as he walked purposefully towards the looming prison walls. “Marcus” he turned immediately. It was Officer Rodney. His inside man.“Follow me” he said and they walked a little distance. The officer tapped on a wall and the door slid open.

She had told the informant, that she would not do anything until she gets to meet the boss. “Yes, I am okay I am speaking directly to the boss”“Okay what is the update?” he asked almost immediately. Laura was taken aback, as how he went straight to business. She wanted to do a little chitchat and then she would slowly ask him when he would help her get the Fuck out of this dingy prison. The Russian mafia had a way of getting her out. At least that was what the informant said, before she agreed to do the job. Though that was not the only reason she agreed to the job.She laughed nervously and she twirled her hair. She took her voice lower and purred. “Aren’t you in a haste boss?”“Get on with it Laura, I ha

It didn’t take long, Henry got off the phone.“I was watching the news” he said.Jackson smiled. “You see anything interesting?” Henry shrugged, “the same old jargon. All they do is talk but they never act.” He sighed. “Now you can put it off. Just as Jackson moved to do so, he stopped.“Boss is that not Danny?”Henry looked up from his work.
