Chapter 3
1614 Words
After the long night that I had spent thinking of what took place and nearly lost all of my senses, I decided to go down to the warehouse to blow off some steam. As I arrived at the warehouse I saw a cop carpooling in already knowing what was waiting on me. I took a deep breath and walked up to the car only to be met by a pale face.
"Long morning Mark?"
"Something like that Mr. Haunt, please take this and have a lovely day!" he said while he handed me a piece of paper that he took from his notebook. Something was up and I was really in no mood for any surprises anymore! I grabbed him by his throat pinning him up against the seat only to meet a ghost.
"What game are you playing Mark?" I said with anger knowing that I was going to regret what I was about to do next.
"Look I want no trouble! From all of you!"
"Someone asked you didn't they?"
"No! I just can't risk losing my family!"
"So sweet for you to care now.."
"Brice's daughter made it very clear to stay away so that is what I am going to do!" with those words I let go of his throat took a step back from his car and looked at the man who sat in front of me gasping for air.
"She's here?" I asked and with a nod from him, I just showed him to leave at once. She does know how to get under my skin, doesn't she? I looked towards their warehouse, yet could not see her at all not to mention any movement. I decided to head over there to find out what the hell was going on, Mark was a d**k in many ways, yet he always warned us, and right now I am not sure what is going through his head. As I got close to the building I found guys standing and smoking talking about how they can f**k women's brains out. Once they saw me they stopped smoking and walked over so that they can hear what I want, yet at this point, I do not know what I want anymore.
"Mind telling me why the cop almost shitted his pants?" I asked seeing as how all of them turned pale. Why the f**k is everyone turning f*****g pale!
"Natalia.." the one guy tried to say, yet he could hardly finish his sentence before we heard a sweet innocent voice from the back.
"That's my name!" she said while all of us stood there like idiots looking at her in disbelief. She looked like someone from a horror movie covered all in blood, yet her eyes stood out even more. I have met Natalia, but this version was new to me and by the look of things not just to me but to the gang as well.
"Is there a problem here?" she said cutting me from my thoughts before she walked past the men heading straight my way. f**k she just knew how the demons inside me felt about her and this was not going to be an easy task! As she came closer I watched as her hips moved from side to side and her lips turned into a smile before I got hit with her cent.
"I asked is there a problem?"
"Mind telling me why my cop looks like s**t after he was here, love?" those words just fell off of my tongue perfectly.
"You're a cop? Last I checked he worked for the state and not for you cunt!" she said with a smirk, looking even more tasteful than before.
"Those words are going to cost you, love!"
"Now that is interesting!"
"This game that you're playing is dangerous Natalia!" I said before she took a step closer leaning in: "Have you seen a demon running wild? Well I haven't and I am back and that means you're going to see my face every single day and I will remind you that you lost me, baby!"
"Natalia!" we both froze after we heard her father's voice, yet all her words were still running like a recorder in my brain. She took a step back and then said out loud like nothing just happened.
"Nice to see you again Jace, come on guys we have a body to get rid of!" she said as she walked past her father with the men escorting her back inside. I just kept on looking at that tight ass walking away with a body of an hourglass she has woken up a side of me that I have never known of before. I turned my attention to Brice who was now cleaning himself from the blood that he most probably got from killing one rat bastard.
"What did he do, rat you out?"
"Stole, now why are you here son?"
"Mark looked like he saw a ghost a few minutes ago, so I just wanted to know what happened!"
"Yes, I think my daughter had something to do with that!" He said for a while we stood there in silence before I spoke up again.
"Did you know that she was alive?"
"Yes, your sister phoned me one night and I could not believe it either! I'm the one who sent Mickey's son if it wasn't for your sister then my daughter would have never made it home!" he said even though I listened to every word and understood there was still some anger that was building up like blocks inside of me.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"I was waiting for that question!'
"Well I asked didn't I?"
"Son, you got engaged last night and I have seen you smile after Natalia. I decided not to tell you as you were finally moving on again!"
"I killed men daily and reeked of alcohol, how is that moving on?" I asked with a bitter tone before he could speak I said goodbye and left. The walk back made me think of everything that happened in these last few months. Everything was on the edge of insane and messed up, yet a part of me is thanking the heavens for keeping her safe. I know she hates me right now, but this joy I have inside of me for her being alive is amazing. As I arrived at the warehouse I saw my butler standing and waiting in anticipation for me.
"Hack my sister's computers to find everything for me on her little rescue trip!"
"Yes, sir!"
"Find me the name of the doctor who was assigned to Natalia!" I said before I got into the car and left. I went straight home only to be met by my mother and Nicole.
"Hi, honey breakfast is ready!" she said and I followed them toward the dining room. I took my seat and saw my mother watching me like a hawk, yet I just smiled at her most of the time. I am my father's son and I did not get anything from my mother maybe the looks, yes, but the business part is all my father. As I took my chair I saw my mother giving me a faint smile, yet before she could say anything Nicole beat her to it.
"So you're mother and I were talking about the wedding.."
"We haven't even spoken about anything yet or decided on a date Nicole, so why involve my mother?" I asked only to see a glimpse of pain in her eyes knowing that I struck a nerve.
"Well, she got a friend who might have an opening by that Venu in France..."
"France?" I asked quite surprised by those words. I know Nicole had this dream of a big wedding, yet right now my mind was all over the bloody s**t show!
"Please turn that louder!" I got taken from my thoughts when I saw the butler turning the volume up from the news.
"Breaking news came out this morning that there might have been survivors on the plane that exploded months ago! Let go straight to Roxanne who is with the mayor right now!" My eyes were glued to the screen before I saw Nicole standing up and moving towards the television.
"Thank you all for coming out on such short notice! It has been brought to my attention that there was indeed a survivor of the plane explosion and her name is Natalia. Also, a thank you to the Haunt family who assisted in this search.." the television was shut off before I could hear anymore. My attention shifted in an instant to Nicole who was now looking at me with fire in her eyes.
"You knew?"
"I.."
"I can't believe this!" was all she said before she stormed out of the room leaving my mother to gloat.
"What?"
"Nothing just trying to picture the situation that you are in!"
"Yeah, guess I am my father's son right, cause not long ago he was in the same position mother!" I said only to see her cheeks blow up from anger.
"I suggest that you leave!" I said before I walked out of the room and headed straight toward the study. A few minutes ago my fiance was planning a wedding before the announcement came up about Natalia, guess I did screw up my karma! I took a glass of whiskey before I took a seat to have a look at some files before I got a call from one of the Italian drug lords who needed my help urgently. This day is turning into a bloody circus of you're asking me!
