*Damon POV*
After I left our bedroom I stalked towards the basement. Santos was there standing guard along with my other men. "Where is her friend? I want to have a talk with her. She needs to understand that Victoria is mine and not to be doing dumb f*****g s**t like this in the future. Is that motherf****r who dared to touch her awake yet?" I said seething as I clenched my fists angrily. "Boss, her friend is this way. She is waiting for you. I made sure she knew that someone very important and dangerous needed to speak with her. I have a feeling that she already knows who you are after that f****r said your name at the club. As for him, no he is still out cold. Once you are done with her friend, I will take you to him." Santos said firmly and lead me to her friend. I opened the door and her friend was sitting on a chair tied up with tears streaming down her face. I closed the door behind me and walked towards her. She was shaking uncontrollably. "Do you know who I am?" I ask sternly. She seemed hesitant to answer, but one look from me and she answered cautiously. "Y-your D-damon C-carson, aren't you? Please don't hurt my friend, she didn't know-" she stuttered out in fear, but I interrupted her by putting my hand over her mouth and leaning close to her face. "She knew, believe me. Victoria knows she is mine, because I visited her at her diner. She knows what she did was unacceptable and she also knows that there will be consequences for her actions. To answer your question, yes, I am Damon Carson." I said sternly as I narrowed my eyes at her. "I w-want to go home. P-please let me go. I have a life." her friend cried. "You will need to sort out your affairs. You both will be living here from now on. You both are now considered part of the Mafia. If any rival would see you, it could mean your death. You will need constant protection. I will send Santos and a few men to go with you. Am I understood?" I hissed angrily. Her eyes were as big as saucers. "But... but.... I...." she stuttered with shock. "ENOUGH! You will do as I say or I can just kill you now! Your f*****g choice. I don't have time to play games. Make your choice!" I growled loudly as I pointed my gun at her head. "Okay... Okay... I c-choose h-here. I d-don't want to d-die." she whispers as tears stream down her face. "One more thing and this is very important. Don't you ever forget your place. Victoria is mine and you best to remember that. I will tell Victoria about the Mafia, when I am ready. If I hear that you mentioned one little peep about it. The consequences will be very bad for you. I promise you that." I said with a deadly calmness. She nodded her head vigorously. I smiled cruelly and walked out of the room and closed the door. "Santos, once we are finished here, you are to take her friend and help her get her affairs in order. From now on she will be living here. She will need constant protection. Victoria would never forgive me if anything happen to her friend." I said annoyed as I rubbed my hand down my face. The things I have to do to keep Victoria happy and she doesn't even know yet. "Boss? Can I talk openly?" Santos said cautiously. He seemed hesitant about something. "Of course, Santos! What's the problem?" I answered honestly. "Can I have her friend? I know she feels something for me, but she is scared." he says softly. I smiled softly and patted his shoulder. "Yes. She will be your responsibility from now on then. Take me to this motherf****r and then you can go to your woman." I chuckle. Santos smiles big and salutes me. I shake my head and laugh. He leads me down the hall and to the basement where I keep my prisoners. "Boss, he is through that door. I will leave a few men with you." Santos says sternly. "No, I don't need any men. I will take care of him." I barked out. "Yes, of course Boss. Whatever you say." Santos says as he turns and rushes back to his woman.
*****trigger warning*****
I open the door and step inside. There in front of my eyes is the guy. I narrow my eyes at him and grit my teeth. He is tied to a chair and passed out. He is bruised and bloodied. The blood has dried up for now. I walk over and grab a pail of ice cold water and dump it over his head. He screams loudly and gasps for air. I throw the pail aside and stand in front of his cowering form. "Good, you're awake. Time to deal with the repercussions of your actions." I growl out as I lift my sleeves up one at a time. "P-please Mr. Carson. I swear I didn't know." he pleads. I punch him several times in the face and then the ribs. I hear his ribs crack in several places and him screaming in pain. I take a deep breath and feel my self become calm. This is the kind of thing that makes me calm my emotions down. Dealing with ignorance can be so time consuming and sometimes exhausting, but thankfully I have my own way of dealing with it. "Next time I suggest you find out before you put your hands on another man's f*****g woman." I shouted out angrily. "Yes, of course, Mr. Carson. Thank you sir." he mumbles painfully. I just chuckle darkly because this damned fool thinks he is going to live another day. I pull my gun out and point it right at his head. His eyes bug out from fear. "Surprise... there won't be a next time, I'm afraid. You dug your grave the moment you even looked her way." I whispered. I pulled the trigger over and over again until the gun was empty. His head fell limply as blood trickled down his body and onto the floor. I warned you Victoria, I will kill anyone who comes close to you and tries to touch what is mine. Now Princess, it's your turn for punishment.
