The traffic jam of Makati irritates the passenger of the black Mercedes Benz . He would be late for the meeting that would take place in one of the night clubs they owned.
"Damned..! " The driver hit the steering wheel of the car with his palm.
" Control yourself Cesar." The passenger at the backseat reminded his driver to stay calm. He had a low and resonant voice, which was perceived as attractive , masculine , respectable and dominant.
"You seemed tensed Cesar.." said the man who was sitting beside on the passenger seat. He had a baritone speaking voice. " Who wouldn't be, Kevin..? Capo was calling an emergency meeting ..at the night club..? " It was a question from the man sitting beside the man who had a low, resonant voice.
" It was more ,, like the Capo was sending us a message. Maybe this was something to do with the traitor, Sebastian.. it was unlikely of him to be calling a meeting in the night club .. " he was holding a Browning in he's right hand ., check it out and when satisfied, he returned the gun to the holster under he's arm. He was wearing a black jeans and a black tee and topped it with a black leather jacket.
" You , seem to be loving the idea of putting a bullet in someone's head tonight , Leonardo .." the man named Sebastian was regarding the man sitting beside him on the backseat . He was Leonardo Rossi - an heir to the Mafia family. He was 29 years old with deep set grey eyes , that seems to be penetrating someone's souls , with the way hes eyes bore on someone or onto something. He had muscular arms , broad shoulders and a toned chest . He stands 6"3' tall . And towered all of hes companion tonight . He had a well - defined Cupid's bow lips , that was making him even sexier
The Rossi family originated from Italy . They had migrated to the Philippines for business expansion, and bringing with them their illegal activities underground.
" Bet me..".He answered casually. " Capo had to deal first the traitor before killing that bastard prosecutor . " Leonardo said with conviction.
Capo in Italian means a leader of the Mafia or a capo regime. Eleazar Rossi the father of Leonardo Rossi was the Capo of the Rossi family. A Mafia is a criminal society and criminal organization operating on the island of Sicily Italy. Now , it was rampant all over the world.
" Who could that be..? " Cesar asked , he was now driving smoothly to the club .
"Someone that had a death wish.." Kevin said The boys are laughing . Kevin was the Capos right hand . Eleazar Rossi assigned him to watch over Leonardo , since he will be his heir . Next in line, if something happened to him , Leonardo will be the next leader of the gang. Leo had a younger brother named Dimitri. He was more on watching the profits of their businesses , illegal or legal businesses.
So, it was obvious that next in line was the eldest Leonardo Rossi. In the Mafia world , they are all family . Whether they are related in blood or not . That's what their kinship was formed , they have an alliance that was formidable. So , there is no room for traitor to stay in the organization.
They entered the underground parking lot , that only known for a Mafia member. They proceeded to the backdoor of the club , to avoid the entrance . They might not want to catch the attention of the crowd . Saturday night was full of people , dancing to the beat of the music . Drinking and smoking like there's no tomorrow . It was a sight that Leonardo was used to . " Hey , brother" Dimitri was tapping his right arm , as the four of them joined the gang in the VIP. room of the club . Eleazar was sitting in the head of the long table.
"Good evening Father.." he sat on the right to hes father . Dimitri was sitting on the left of Eleazar. The rest of the gang are sitting one by one at the vacant chair.
"Thank you for your attendance tonight ." Eleazar started speaking. "First let me refresh your memory . The Rossi family , we are called by that name because we are family . It doesn't matter , if we are related by blood or not , so long as you belong to the Rossi family .. we are but family. " The rest of the gang are nodding their heads.
"Which is why .., it saddens me to think , why.. there were traitors between us . " he seem hurt if the evidence of hes voice were any guide. " Traitors..?!" Dimitri knitted he's brow . " Yes son .. there were two of them .." Eleazar confirmed.
They could hear murmured inside the room . Everyone was looking at one another . " Who were they Capo? ...I " Kevin was asking . He was the right hand of the Capo . It must be him who will execute the punishment. But Eleazar silencing him with a raised of his finger .
Leonardo has been looking at everyone inside the room . He's been studying each one of them. Trying to follow hes father's lead. He was assessing each of them , except Dimitri of course. He's not looking at Kevin , neither at Sebastian and Cesar. They were the most trusted member of the gang.
At the tip of he's eyelid , he could see JM and Joshan sweating . The bastards could't be more obvious. Their eyes are seemed to be looking at the door . They were cousins and the Capo was accepting them , after they pledge allegiance to the Rossi family . They were from the Blood mob , the rival of the Rossi family. They've been feeding information to the Rossi family about the blood who tried to double cross them.
Who could have thought , that they one feeding important information to the organization , will also be the traitors who are exposing them to one of the country's leading prosecutor. Leonardo's blood boil . If there was anything he hated most are people who couldn't be trusted. A person who defies the code of ethics of the organization.
" Relax , Kevin .. " Eleazar told him .With the remote on hes hand he played the wide screen for everyone to see . The screen was showing an alley , a dim alley ko. The light was enough to see three people talking in the corridor. It shows that the man who approached the two men , who seemed to be waiting for the other person , was giving him something that was inside in a plastic envelope.
" Son of a b***h ..!" It was too fast for anyone to follow . The two traitors dropped dead , before they realize what was killing them. They were standing near the door with some of the members . Leonardo was looking at the screen and at the same time , were watching JM and Joshan trying to pull their guns that was tucked on their waistline.
Two balance knives were flying hitting the forehead of JM and Joshan before the two could blinked.
Dimitri whistle. The remaining members of the room was silent and in awe of the manner Leonardo was using in executing the traitors.
The gang members are suddenly frightened to move. This was their next Capo in line .? Ruthless than his father. Alert and ready to execute punishment to those who crossed the line without further interrogation. There was no need for interrogation anyways . It was discussed beforehand , that death was the only penalty to those who lie to the allegiance , let alone betrayed the trust of the organization.!
" Kevin , you know what to do .." Eleazar motioned for him to take care of the dead bodies. Sebastian retrieved the balance. knives .. " Allow me.." he cleans the blade , and gives it back to Leonardo . Leonardo Rossi nodded his head to Sebastian and accepted the knives, putting it back at his pants pocket, like nothing happened. " Let this be a reminder to you all , that whoever betrayed our family , will be punished. Your lies , your betrayal will be punishable by death . I hope not to hear anything like this again . Before you joined this organization , I told each one of you to reconsider your decision before pleading your loyalty. You were only to blame with the consequences of your actions . Is that clear?" Eleazar pressed the word with emphasis. " Yes , Capo .." they. answer in unison. Leonardo excused himself and went outside the bar for a drink. Killing people makes him thirsty.!
