The Mafia's Contract Chapter 5 novel online free
DERRICK'S POV
I was in my office sorting out some of my work papers.
I did my best to focus on my work. I really did.
However, no matter how hard I tried, my thoughts kept drifting back to.... Her.
Joan.
Yes, that's her name.
Every single time I closed my eyes, I could see her gorgeous face.
Her image was imprinted in my mind, refusing to leave.
This is unusual because I just came in contact with her yesterday.
I had never met anyone so beautiful... Anyone so mesmerizing. Yes, that's the word.
She had the most beautiful pair of brown eyes I had ever seen. I could look at her forever.
She had such captivating beauty and an innocent demeanor. She stared at me innocently.
I could destroy her if I had the chance.
I can imagine doing dirty things to her. She had such a small frame. She was so small that I could crush her with my bare hands if I wanted.
I could pin both hands on top her head with one hand and I wouldn't need to use all my strength.
Her curves showed in the tight dress she wore yesterday.
Her hips would fit perfectly underneath my hands. I could hold her perfectly shaped ass firmly.
Yes, I turned around to do a double take as soon as I saw her yesterday.
Seeing her in that maid dress did things to me.
I caught a glimpse of her when she came in and I got hard immediately. That's why i had to turn my focus to my phone.
It seems as if I can't control myself
Her maid uniform hugged her curves in all the right places. Her boobs were just the right size.
I allowed my mind to wander, picturing her delicate features and the way her eyes sparkled innocently.
And then, there was that moment when our fingers touched. It was brief, but it left an impression on me. In that fleeting connection, I felt a surge of electricity, a magnetic force that drew us closer.
I clenched my fists, frustration and desire intertwining within me.
How could I allow myself to be so captivated by someone?
I have vowed to never let another woman into my life.
I can't compromise it. All women are cruel and I want nothing to do with them.
Who is this woman?
Why does she have this effect on me?
A knock on the door interrupted my thoughts.
I groaned internally, clenching my fists.
I just wanted one moment to myself. I've been having meetings and press interviews all morning.
When I got back home, I got an earful from my mother about how I haven't gotten married yet. She's been bugging me about this for years.
I craved some peace and quiet which is why I retired to my office to get some work done.
Who dares to disturb my solitude?
"Who is it?" I asked through gritted teeth.
"It's Santi"
Santi was my second in command.
I have two right hand men: Santi and Ace.
You'll soon find out why.
Santi knows how stressed I am. He was with me all morning. I specifically told him I did not want to be disturbed throughout today.
For him to knock on my door, it must be important.
He wouldn't risk his head for something unimportant.
I let out a deep breath "Come in"
The door opened, revealing Santi.
He was dressed in all black as usual.
He stood tall. The huge slash on his eye reflected.
"Boss" he said with a nod.
I looked at him with a straight face "What is it, Santi? This better be good"
"I apologize for the disturbance. We captured Bones"
I almost couldn't believe my ears.
Bones was a worker of mine. We found out he betrayed us by running illegal jobs with one of our enemy cartels.
I was surprised to hear he was captured because he was off our radar for months.
I sent my best men to track him down yet they couldn't. I almost forgot about him.
"How did you manage to capture him?" I questioned
"It took us a while. We tracked some of his underground gang members till we found one that was willing to talk. We paid him enough money to snitch on him"
I nodded.
It's time like these that I appreciate my men. They were willing to do anything for me.
"Did anyone get killed in the process?" I asked.
"Yes. Some were unwilling to co-operate so they had to be eliminated. We couldn't afford any loose ends especially the ones who knew too much"
"Has the situation been contained?"
"Yes boss. We have it under control"
"Good job. Where's Bones?"
"In the dungeon"
"Very well then"
I stood up and left my office.
Santi and I made our way to the secret staircase in my mansion.
Down the staircase was an underground dungeon.
Only a few workers in this house knew about it.
Santi led me to the room where Bones was being held.
The room was dark but was visible enough for me to see the sight before me.
Bones was tied up to a chair with his head hanging low. Few of my main men stood around him. Ace was part of them.
The blood on their hands and clothes were visible. Anyone would be better off dead than to be tortured by my boys.
Bones' face was badly beaten to the point where I couldn't recognize him
I sat in the chair placed in front of him.
"Good day boss" my men greeted.
I don't have a lot of main men. I prefer to keep my circle small.
If there's something I've learned in life and something my father taught me, it's to never trust many people especially in the line of business I'm in.
They were handpicked and trained to work for me, to be loyal to me.
"Hello boys" I answered "What's he saying?'
"Nothing yet, boss" Ace answered "Maybe he'll talk now that you're here"
I looked at Bones. I didn't feel the slightest sympathy for him.
If he hadn't been a greedy bastard, he wouldn't be in this position.
"What's your deal?" I spoke to him.
He panted with each breath he took.
"Just.... *pant* kill me *pant* already"
His voice was raspy. He probably hasn't taken water in a long time.
"Your death won't be so easy" I said "I'm going to enjoy every bit of pain you feel or have you forgotten who you're dealing with?"
Apart from my successful family business, my father's family ran a successful underground cartel for generations.
We managed to do this while maintaining a perfect image with the public by owning successful companies.
We had to do this due to the amount of money we made.
This way, our wealth would not be questioned.
Trust me, it's hard living double lives.
This is the part where Bones fucked up.
A year ago, I employed Bones to take over one of my trap houses and run it for me. He's worked with me for years and he seemed trust worthy. That was why I placed him in charge of the trap house in London.
Instead of sticking to just our deal, he turned part of it to a secret brothel with underaged boys working for him.
My spies told me about this and we were able to contain the situation.
If we hadn't and word got out about it, my family could be ruined.
Already, all eyes are on us.
I did my best to calm myself down. If I act according to the emotions I'm feeling, I just might kill him.
You can never double cross me. Ever!
How dare he? He's got some guts.
"Do you have no shame?" I raised my voice "A brothel? With kids? You're a father! Do you have no moral compass?!"
Bones threw his head back and chuckled.
"Kids *pant* especially young boys are the sweetest" he chuckled again "They made me a lot of money"
Ace punched him in the face. I shook my head.
I made a mental note in my head. Run proper mental health checks before partnering with anyone.
How can someone employ kids for sex work?
How cruel do you have to be to do that?
"What do we do now boss?" Ace asked me "Should we kill him?"
"Not yet. Does he have any accomplices?"
"Yes" Santi answered "He had an assistant who helped him run the brothel"
"I've taken care of him" Ace told me.
"Is it someone we know?"
"No boss" they chorused.
We have to make sure there are no loose ends. If any are found, they'll have to be tied up.
Fuck greedy men. I pay Bones more than enough to help me run the house. He also has a cut from whatever sales he makes.
I wonder why it isn't ever enough. I can't even imagine what those poor kids went through.
"What about the kids?" I questioned "Where are they?"
"In a private location" Ace responded "They're being well taken care of and rehabilitated"
"Send me a budget of everything they need"
"Okay boss"
I stood up and adjusted my coat.
"Well done, boys" I said to them
They bowed their heads "Thank you, boss"
"As for him" I took a long look at Bones "He deserves to rot in the deepest part of hell. "Make his death painful. I mean it"
"Yes boss"
"Come on, Santi" I told him "We've got work to do"
"Yes boss"
Santi and I left the room for the boys to do their work. As we walked down the dark corridors, the loud screeching sounds of Bones' screams could be heard.
I was in my office sorting out some of my work papers.
I did my best to focus on my work. I really did.
