Chapter 19 & 20 : Extracting Information
☙{ Letting Go }☙
When he got to his room, Flora was asleep already and so he tuck her into his bed and stood watching her sleeping face and unknowingly a smile curve his lips.
❉ ~ Next Day >> Morning ~❉
“Let us go ! We did nothing wrong, I was only following the order of one of the people in your organization” the man who had tried to abduct Flora cried out as he was tied and lying naked on a table along with his second.
“You should have thought about that before messing with the wrong person” Ricardo said as he came into the torture room.
“He refuse to tell us who sent him” Tony who was holding a whip inform.
“So you are the boss? And let me guess, the girl we tried to kidnap is your playmate right? It’s a shame we captured the wrong girl and…Arrrgh!” The man shrieked out in pain when Ricardo picked up an axe on the floor to cut off both of his hands.
“Blood!” The second man cried out in fear as he watch the other man lose a lot of blood.
Ricardo moved to the second guy and pulled his hair roughly.
“If you don’t want to end up like him better tell me who sent you” Ricardo threaten.
“It’s a lady. She works here and she sent us to kidnap her, she wanted us to kill her ” the second man confessed.
“And who is this lady?”
“Athena…yes, that’s her name” he said quickly while Ricardo let go of his hair.
“Get Athena for me ” Ricardo ordered Bonnie who quickly went to do his biding.
“Kill them both” he ordered Tony who fired his gun multiple of times on the foolish men.
❉ ~ Ricardo Room ~❉
Flora opened her eyes due to the chirping birds. She clearly remember the things that happened last night and one of it got her teary.
“Am not going to cry” she muttered but she couldn’t prevent the tears from cascading down her cheeks.
As silently as she could, she began to cry. Finding out about Giorgio sleeping with someone else made her feel hurt.
She was wiping at her tears when she notice someone in the room.
“When you are done shedding your tears, you might as well leave my room” Ricardo said coldly which got her angry.
“Can’t you even offer me a handkerchief?”
“Tch! If you are expecting me to comfort you then I suggest you forget about it. It won’t ever happen” Ricardo stated as he move towards the window to open the curtain.
“Giorgio Is sleeping with Queenie” Flora said while wondering why she told him about it.
“And so? You don’t expect him to remain celibate and after all you’ve slept with me. It’s only right that he does the same” he replied unfeeling.
“You really are a callous jerk! How can you say such things to me knowing that all of this is your fault!” She yelled suddenly and that got Ricardo turning to her.
“If you hadn’t insisted on having me then Giorgio wouldn’t have left me and he wouldn’t have slept with Queenie” she added flushing with so much anger.
“Don’t kid yourself. Even when he was with you, he was messing around with Queenie. He doesn’t love you and to him you are only a possession, you should have known that by now” he said to her cruelly.
“If you’ve got nothing more to say, I suggest you leave. I have a very important guest coming”
“And no doubt that that guest is obviously going to fulfil your needs in bed, right?” She taunted.
“What? Do you want me to send her away while I have you instead. Sorry, but I prefer someone more warm”.
“Warm, tch! What do you know about being warm when you are nothing but a cold unfeeling jerk. A piece of advice, if you keep up this way, you will never know the true meaning of being warm neither will you have someone warm by your side” with that said, she stormed out of his room.
She was still fuming in anger when she made it to the corridor almost colliding into Athena.
“Why do I have to see your damn face so early in the morning?” Athena ask.
Flora chose to ignore her and was about to walk off when she pulled her back.
“No one walks out on me! You must think you are something just because Ricardo is fking you right. Don’t dwell on that cause Ricardo is a cold man, he might fk you today and kill you tomorrow” Athena rasp out.
“Once he kills me, you will be the one to share his bed right?” Flora asked which earn her a smirk from Athena.
“Of course though I was the one sharing it before you showed up. You have no idea how much I loathe you being here, To think that I even payed two men to get rid of you last…”
“You sent two men to kill me last night?”
“I did. It’s no longer news since those two morons were caught” Athena replied proudly.
“Does Ricardo know about it?”
“He does and don’t think that he will do a thing to me just to avenge you. Ricardo is not a guy who care about other people, he only care about the clan and nothing else” Athena replied coldly.
“As a matter of fact, Am going to see him right now and I doubt that we will be talking much” Athena added just as Flora recall something Ricardo told her.
So, Athena is the important guest he’s expecting…she thought as she walk off without saying anything more to Athena.
As soon as Athena got to Ricardo room, she knock and on hearing his voice, she walk into the room.
“Good mor….” She didn’t get to complete her sentence because Ricardo tightened his hand around her throat.
She was rammed hard against the wall and she knew she had broken something. She stared at Ricardo who was glaring down at her with so much anger.
“I heard about your little plan ” he said icily while he tighten her throat a little more.
“Ricardo I…”
“Shut the f**k up and listen to me. If you dare try to harm Flora again, I will chop you into pieces and feed your flesh to the hungry animals, do I make myself clear?” Ricardo asked which got her nodding slowly.
He release his hold on her and immediately she dash out of the room.
She was gasping for breath when she got to the corridor. Ricardo have never threatened her before …she thought as her fear diminish to be replace with anger.
It’s all Flora’s fault and it’s time she pays.
❉ ~Later That Day~❉
After hours of thinking, Flora finally made a decision which is why she’s currently headed to Giorgio’s room.
She knock twice on the door and was about to leave when it open revealing a lady and judging by Giorgio shirt which she had on, Flora could tell that she is Queenie.
“If you are here to see Giorgio, he’s still asleep” Queenie inform as she walk out of the room.
“I just want to talk to him about something”
“Something that will definitely put him more in a confuse state. You’ve done enough Flora and it’s time you leave” Queenie said.
“I…”
“You might as well go in to see him but keep this In mind Flora. With you gone everything will be back to normal starting with Giorgio and Ricardo’s relationship” Queenie said before walking off.
Flora drew in a deep breath before going into the room.
Giorgio must have woken when she came in because he was sitting up with the sheets drape around his torso leaving his shirtless body in view.
“Flora, what a sudden surprise” he said looking a bit nervous.
“You should have told me you were coming and I would have…”
“You would have told Queenie to leave on my behalf” Flora finish for him and immediately the look on his face changed to one of guilt.
“You know about me and Queenie right? Ricardo must have told you”
“Ricardo only made things clear to me though I found out about it last night” Flora replied.
“Flora it’s not what you think. I can explain” Giorgio said as he quickly got off the bed forgetting that he’s naked.
“Put on something” Flora shriek out while he quickly put on his bathrobe.
“Queenie means nothing to me. You are the only I love ” Giorgio said as he held her face.
“That’s unfair, it’s unfair to Queenie and to me. You claim you love me and yet you sleep with Queenie? “
“That’s because I…”
“You don’t love me Giorgio just as much I don’t love you. Am amaze that it took me this long to realise it. When I met you, I thought I finally found my soulmate but then things happened which made me see clearly what my true feeling is”
“And what is your true feeling?” Giorgio asked.
“That I loved you like a sister will love her older brother. Our love wasn’t as intense as we thought it to be and that’s why you could sleep with Queenie and I with Ricardo ” she said.
“What you are saying doesn’t make sense. Did Ricardo force you to tell me this? Is he threatening you in some way?” Giorgio asked.
“He isn’t. This is me telling you what I feel and…”
“The Flora I know wouldn’t be saying this to me, it’s not what you feel, someone must have told you to do it” Giorgio countered.
“It is the truth and you’ve got to accept it. I just came to let you know about my feeling and also to let you know that am leaving” she stated.
“Leaving? Did Ricardo tell you to leave?”
“He didn’t infact he doesn’t know, I intend to go to him now and tell him about it. Goodbye Giorgio” she said as she hurriedly left his room before he could stop her.
She got to Ricardo’s room and after knocking severally with no reply, she decided to go in.
There was no one in and she was about to leave when the bathroom door open revealing Ricardo.
The only thing he had on was his towel which did nothing to cover up his perfect body.
Flora stood by the door way mesmerized at seeing him but what drew her gaze most was the tattoo he had on his right arm.
“Once you’re done starring, you will state why you are here” he said jolting Flora back to the present.
” I wasn’t starring” she said quickly and he gave a shrug before pulling off the towel right In front of her.
Once again, Flora’s gaze was drawn to his body and it was the lower part of his body this time.
His d*k was so long and strong, no wonder she had been moaning like a whore the day he took her cause with such long and hard dck it will be very hard not to get please.
“Are you going to tell me why you are here or not!” He demanded gruffly as he pull on his shorts.
“Well er…I…I need you to grant me something” she said focusing on the reason she’s there.
“And what’s that?” Ricardo asked, his gaze on her.
“Let me leave” she said already knowing his answer would be a no but she’s not going to give up till he…
“Alright! Get your things ready and Tony will take you back to the city” he replied stunning Flora into silence.
“What are you still waiting for? Don’t you want to leave?” He asked and immediately she dash off to her room to pack the little possession she brought with her.
She was wondering why Ricardo easily agreed when there was a knock on her door.
“Boss told me to take you back to the city” Tony inform and a while later, she was led out of the room to a waiting car outside.
Flora felt a void as Tony drove them out of the hide out.
She felt that she made the wrong decision and wondered why she felt that way.
Suddenly Tony step on the brake just as another car double cross them.
“What’s going on?” Flora asked.
“I think someone doesn’t want us to leave” Tony replied as the door open to reveal….
Chapter 21 & 22 : Flora’s New Mission
☙{ Her Task }☙
“What’s going on?” Flora asked.
“I think someone doesn’t want us to leave” Tony replied as the door open to reveal….
❉ ~ Shooting Ground ~ ❉
What do you know about being warm when you are nothing but a cold unfeeling jerk
A piece of advice, if you keep up this way, you will never know the true meaning of being warm neither will you have someone warm by your side
Flora’s word kept going through Ricardo’s mind as he fired his gun. The reason why he had come to the shooting ground is to clear his head but even with the distraction, her words kept bugging him.
Throwing the gun aside, he pulled off his glove to unbutton his shirt when he noticed Tony running towards him.
“There’s been a problem, boss” Tony said breathing hard.
“What’s wrong?”
“Your girl…your girl has been taken” Tony replied.
On hearing this, Ricardo stance change and immediately he pick up his gun.
“Who took her?”
❉ ~ Private Room ~❉
Flora was dragged into the room by two men who forced her to kneel on the floor and in front of a man.
Flora swallowed nervously before starring at the man sitted in front of her.
Judging by his looks, Flora could tell that he’s in his late sixties. The scar along his cheek and the cold glare he sent her way made her feel like She’s seen him before but somehow she’s sure that this is their first meeting.
“So you are Flora?” He asked which got her starring at the floor.
“You are the girl that have been disrupting the peace between Ricardo and Giorgio?” He said again and that got her starring at him.
“How did you manage to do it? What exactly do you have that you’ve got both men wrapped around your finger?” He asked again.
“I…I….don’t possess…such quality” she stuttered.
“Tch! So you are saying that my informant is a liar?” He question which brought her gaze on him.
“That’s not what I meant…what I meant is that….”
“Silence!” He ordered which got her shutting her mouth.
“Girls like you are only meant to be a distraction and distraction is the one thing I don’t want for my sons” immediately he said that Flora stared at him.
“You are Ricardo and Giorgio’s father?” She asked feeling a bit stunned.
“I am and have heard so much about you already. To think my foolish sons have to go gaga over a mere waitress boils my blood with rage, I wonder how crazy they will act once you are gone” he said slowly earning Flora’s gaze again.
“Y…you intend to k…kill me?” She stuttered and he didn’t bother to reply, instead he pick up a gun from the table and after twiddling with it, he point it to her fore head.
“Death is the only thing left for someone whose aim is to distract my sons” he said as he charge the gun prepared to fire when the door burst open revealing Ricardo.
“No!” Ricardo yelled as he pulled the gun out of his father’s hand and a frightened Flora let out a sigh of relief.
“What are you doing?” Ricardo asked glaring down at his father.
“I should be asking you the same thing! How dare you take my gun?” Stephan Knight yelled at him.
“Whatever you have to say just say it to me and leave the girl alone” Ricardo said more calmly as he pulled Flora up.
“I can see that this girl has gotten to you. What exactly did she offer? Her body?” Stephan taunted.
“That has nothing to do with you dad. What matters is the clan and have been doing my utmost best to make sure things go well, what I do in my private time is none of your business”
“So what you trying to say is that you are the boss to your own life?” He asked slowly.
“Think of it whichever way you want. Let’s go ” he said as he pulled Flora.
“Seems like you want the same thing that happened to Camilla to happen to her” Stephan said and immediately Ricardo stopped which got Flora stopping too.
“If you value your life then I suggest you don’t walk out of that door with him” Stephan added while starring at Flora.
“I doubt he’s told you what happened to Camilla. What he did just to get rid of her and….”
“Stop it dad!” Ricardo yelled startling Flora who was beside him.
The tension was tense between father and son as they stared at each other. Flora knew she had to do something or it will be one bloody night.
Quickly she pulled her hand out of Ricardo’s and went to kneel in front of the old man.
“I think you are mistaken sir. I mean nothing to Ricardo and he also mean nothing to me. When you arrived I was about to leave this place for good but now I realise that am meant to stay here” she said.
“You are meant to stay as what? Ricardo’s lover?”
“Not as Ricardo’s lover but as one of your men. During my stay here have notice that everyone talks of one thing which is the spy “
“Everyone knows about the spy just tell me what you are going to do about it?” Stephan said grudgingly.
“I will find the spy and bring him or her to you” She replied and that earn her a smile from Stephan.
“Flora!” Ricardo call to her name got her starring his way.
“Are you sure that you can find the spy?” Stephan question brought her gaze on him again.
“I can” Flora replied which got Stephan smiling.
“Fine then, I will be giving you two weeks”.
“Dad do not listen to her, she’s just…”.
“Two weeks in which you’ve got to find me the spy and bring him to me, agree?” Stephan cut in and Flora could only nod in return.
“You are dismiss” he said and immediately Flora got off the floor to leave and Ricardo was about following when Stephan stopped him.
“You know it will be impossible for her to find the spy, So why give her such a task?” Ricardo asked.
“Cause she offered to do it and quit with the yelling. I asked you to wait for something else” Stephan return smoothly.
” The devil clan will be holding a banquet some time in the week, I want you to go there and kill Lord Santos”.
“Lord Santos is the leader of the devils, will it be easy to kill him?” Ricardo asked.
“I will leave that to you to handle with the others but I want results. Santos have been my long time hindrance, it’s time we make him gone” Stephan said just as the door open to reveal Athena.
“It’s so good to have you back big boss” Athena cooed and she went to give him a hug.
“You look skinnier than ever, haven’t you been taking care of yourself?” Stephan asked.
“I have but it’s just that work have been too tiring” Athena said this while starring at Ricardo.
“I will take my leave” Ricardo said before leaving the room.
“So? Did you meet her big boss?” Athena asked.
“I did” Stephan replied referring to Flora.
“She’s just like Camilla right? A distraction for Ricardo and it’s only right that we get rid of…”
“For now I won’t get rid of her” Stephan cut in while Athena stared at him in surprise.
“B…but why?” Athena stuttered.
“I gave her a task and I doubt that she will be able to complete it. Let’s just wait till then so when I decide to kill her, Ricardo won’t be able to do anything ” Stephan told her.
“That’s awesome big boss. Am glad you always think ahead”
“If I don’t then how will my three sons and this clan survive?” He said which got Athena laughing.
“You must be tired from your trip big boss. Which is why have got the maids to prepare your bathe and also we will be having a party to welcome you tonight” Athena told him and he nodded.
“This is why I think you will make a perfect bride for my son” Stephan told her as they went out of the private room.
❉ ~ Kitchen ~❉
Red walked into kitchen only to stop short when she saw Dacio and a maid caressing each other.
She wanted to leave at first but then she changed her mind and went further in to pour herself a glass of water.
When they noticed her, the maid quickly set her clothe properly before dashing out of the kitchen making Dacio sigh out in frustration.
“Didn’t you see us here?” Dacio asked impatiently.
“So, Did you expect me to leave just because you two are doing your dirty deed in the kitchen of all place?” Red replied stonily.
“You know, I always get the feeling that you dislike me” Dacio said as he came to stand beside her.
“You are right. I don’t like you” she replied glaring at him.
“That’s a shame cause a girl like you is obviously wasting her youth away by pushing men like me away from them. I doubt you know how it feels to have something huge put into that hole of yours” he said and that got her eyes widening In shock.
“You obviously don’t know which is why you look like a bitter old lady. Tch! It’s a shame you don’t like me, I would have love to teach you” he added and blowing a kiss her way, he left the kitchen.
Red had never felt so angry in her entire life, she would love to go after him and slit his damn throat but he’s the son of the big boss which makes him untouchable.
It’s true that she’s been untouched and that’s because she and Lazaro had wanted to take things slow. They had never gotten to the stage of being intimate with each other when he died.
A death which is solely Dacio fault…she thought still fuming.
Pulling out her phone, she dialled Ten number and after the third ring, he answered.
“I will do it. I will do whatever you want just to make that jerk pay for Lazaro’s death” she said into the reciever.
❉ ~ Some Hours Later ~❉
Ricardo was heading to the meeting room when he saw Flora.
“Why are you here?”
“To attend the meeting not like it’s any of your business” she replied steely.
“You don’t have to attend just go to your room ” Ricardo ordered.
“Sorry but I stopped taking orders from you and since am working for your father now, I will only be taking orders from him” she said defiantly.
“Are you going against me?” Ricardo asked menacingly.
“Perhaps. I have nothing to fear from you since am no longer your f**k mate” she said steely.
“And who told you that?” He asked, a devious smile splaying on his lips.
“Your father for one wouldn’t allow it and I also don’t want you to ever touch me again” she said shakingly.
“Why don’t we put your last statement to test ” he said and in one swift mood, he lifted over his shoulders heading for his room.
Chapter 23 & 24 : The Great Escape
☙{ His Feelings }☙
“Why don’t we put your last statement to test ” he said and in one swift mood, he lifted over his shoulders heading for his room.
Ten let out a smile before making his way to Mona’s room.
He got there to meet the door open and there was Bonnie spoon feeding her while they kept chatting oblivious to his arrival.
Walking towards them, he hit the plate out of Bonnie’s hand making the food pour away in process.
“Are you crazy!” Bonnie asked while Mona stared at him in shock.
“I should be asking you that. What the hell gave you the right to be in my girlfriend room? You really want to die, uh!”
“The only person who will be dying here is you” Bonnie replied getting off the chair.
“You both should stop it” Mona said as she scrambled to her feet.
“Am just so sick and tired of this guy hanging around you ” Ten muttered feeling so very angry.
“The one will be getting sick is Mona if you two don’t get the hell out of here” Marissa said at the door way earning their attention.
“What’s wrong with you two? Mona is just recovering from almost being kidnapped and instead of you two to make her feel comfortable, you both are acting like a hooligan” Marissa yelled at them.
“Stay out of this” Ten yelled in return.
“I sure won’t! A meeting is about to be held and Ricardo wants everyone there and so get yourself out of this room!” Marissa yelled and reluctantly Ten left followed by Bonnie.
“Are you okay?” Marissa asked Mona who nodded in return.
“What’s the meeting about? Do you think I should come too?” Mona asked.
“Ricardo know that you are recovering. So just stay put and whatever they talk about, I will tell you about it” Marissa replied as she layed her back on the bed before leaving the room.
The meeting room had everyone there except for Ricardo.
“Is he seriously going to miss this when he made it clear to us that everyone must attend?” Dacio said aloud.
“We can’t wait for him to arrive so we might as well begin” Giorgio said to everyone while Athena couldn’t help but to wonder where Ricardo is.
“Why isn’t he here yet?” She muttered to herself.
Ricardo Room
“Put me down! I said put me down” Flora yelled as he set her down roughly before going back to bolt the door.
“Let me leave! We’ve got a meeting to attend” Flora said as she tried to walk past him but he pulled her back roughly.
“F**k the meeting. This is more urgent” Ricardo said and in one swift mood, he pull off her top.
“Let go of me Ricardo!” She screamed trying to pull away but he didn’t let her go.
He unclipped her bra hook, leaving her bbs to his gaze. “If you touch me then you know what it is to make love to a statue” she threatened lightly while trying to cover her brst.
“Is that a challenge?” He asked as her drew her back into his arms.
“Try me and see!” Flora retaliate and immediately, Ricardo lips claim hers while his hand rove around her back.
His hands went to her br**st to caress and mould it into his hands, he further went ahead to suck on it and during all this Flora did her best to stay still while he did all this.
His hands went to her jeans and he pulled it off of her, he made her lay on the bed before opening her laps to finger her.
By now Flora was finding it hard not to respond. His lips found it’s way to her clitoris pleasuring her there intensely.
“Do you still insist on being a statue” he whispered into her ear as his lips caress her throat.
“Touch me, damn it! Touch me woman!” He ordered brusquely and slowly her clench hands went to his naked body.
As if her touch was the ultimate blow, he quickly pulled off his trouser and entering into her.
“Arrgh!” Flora moaned out as he kept riding her.
“Gosh, you drive me crazy Flora” he moaned into her ears as his thrust got deeper and faster.
When they finally release they were both breathing hard. Ricardo got off a weak and dozing Flora.
He lay by her side watching her sleepy face and once again, a smile crept his lips.
For the first time in a long time, he felt warm.
Sometime later Ricardo woke up to find the bed empty.
He sat up only to see a note on his desk and he opened it.
★ BEFORE YOU WAKE UP AND TELL ME TO GET LOST HAVE ALREADY DECIDED TO LEAVE ★
“Crazy” he muttered just as someone knock on the door.
“Hang on a sec” he said as he quickly put on his trouser before telling whoever it was to come in.
“The meeting is over boss” Tony informed.
“Oh! The meeting, I totally forgot” he muttered silently cursing himself.
He has never miss a meeting before but for the first time In his life and thanks to Flora alluring body, he missed it.
“Which is why am here to fill you in on it” Tony replied.
“Since you weren’t around, Giorgio took charge of things and it’s been decided that we will be attending the devils party under disguise so we will be able to attack”.
“He was never interested in doing a thing but now that father is back, he plans to prove to him that he’s an responsible ” Ricardo muttered.
“Giorgio have always been like that but then you are meant to be in charge of the clan” Tony praised.
“What else did they talk about ?”
“Well not all of us will be attending in disguise. Some will be attending as guest”.
“Who volunteered to do that?”,
“Well Flora and Dacio will be one going in as a guest while the rest of us….”
“And why is Flora participating?” Ricardo half yelled.
“Well big boss made it clear that she’s one of us now and…”.
“I want her out of the mission” Ricardo cut him off once again.
“Am afraid that is impossible since big boss made it clear that she should partake in the mission”
“I will speak to big boss himself” Ricardo muttered before leaving the room.
Mona Room
“You really will look for the spy?” Marissa asked while Flora gave a nod in return.
“I have to if I want to keep my life” Flora said in return.
“But Ricardo was willing to protect you. You should have just agreed to being his lover rather than to work for the big boss” Mona reproved.
“Am done being Ricardo’s f**k mate. If I will stay then I prefer working my stay instead of warming his bed every night ” she said flushing a bit when she recalled the afternoon in his arms.
“But it’s risky. If the spy amongst us find out that you are looking for him or her then you are going to be in danger” Marissa said.
“Which is why have got to learn some self defence technique. Do you know of someone who can teach me?” Flora asked.
“You sure don’t listen!” Mona muttered.
“Am sorry but have got to do this. It’s either that or I die ” Flora said wanting them to support her in this.
” Well we’ve got two people who are good In combat. One of them is Athena and the other is Dacio, I prefer you go with Dacio” Marissa told her.
“Athena will probably bite her hand off rather than to help you” Mona said softly.
“Which is why am going to ask Dacio to teach me” Flora said in return.
Ricardo walk out of the room looking very angry while Dacio followed suit.
“Take it easy. You know dad is just thinking about you” Dacio said trying to cajole.
“Thinking about me? If he is then he wouldn’t have given Flora such a hard task ” Ricardo replied still fuming.
“But from what dad said, she offered to do it herself. I see no reason why you should get worked up about it”
“Flora is a novice when it comes to things like this, send her out on a mission and she’s gone. I don’t want that to happen to her which is why I won’t agree for her to go on this mission”.
“You know am good when it comes to combat, I can teach her for you”
“You are the last guy I would want getting close to her, you darn playboy” Ricardo said which earned him a certain look from Dacio.
” I don’t get it! You’ve never acted this way with any girl not even with Camilla…oh sorry if I mentioned her but you are acting like a different person…tell me, do you like Flora?” Dacio asked and for a while Ricardo was stunned into silence.
“You do like her right? That’s why you are angry for her sake, you are scared that when she attends the party she will get hurt and…”
“Shut up! You are begining to annoy me” Ricardo said before walking off.
On his way back to his room, he couldn’t help but to think about Dacio words.
He can’t possibly be attracted to Flora? He’s been wondering why his mind have always been preoccupied by Flora but that doesn’t mean that he likes her.
He thought as he walk past the kitchen only to see Flora chatting with Leon and Bonnie.
For a while he stood at the door way watching her smile at something Leon was saying and he couldn’t help but to get angry.
Never has she smiled that way around him which makes him more angrier.
He was still deep in thought when he saw Leon moving towards her.
Ricardo watch him cup her face while he bent over her and without thinking, he went into the room and pushed Leon away from her startling everyone.
“What the hell are you trying to do?” He snap at Leon.
“Am only trying to get the dirt out of her eyes ” Leon replied making Ricardo embarrassed his sudden impulse.
“He wasn’t doing anything to your girl, boss” Bonnie added lightly making him feel more embarrassed.
Without saying a thing to them, he left the kitchen and ignoring Athena who was calling to him, he got into his room and bolt the door.
“What the f**k is wrong with me?” He muttered to himself.
The Devil Clan
“Lord Santos. I have good news, they’ve taken the bait” A man said as he walk into a room which had a middle man in it.
“So will the Knights Clan be attending the party?” The devils asked.
“They will and we will be prepared for them though there’s one problem” he said and that got Lord Santos starring at him.
“He will also be attending the party, what should we do? We can’t possibly attack one of our men”
“You most definitely can’t touch him. I will think of something but if I can’t think of one and he shows up at the party make sure you don’t harm him. I already lost Camilla, I can’t lose him too” Lord Santos said to man who gave a nod before leaving the room.
Getting out of his chair, Lord Santos stood by the window sill starring outside.
“It’s time things get bloody” He muttered.
Knights Clan
“Big boss, you called for me” Ten said as he walk into Stephan room.
“I did and that’s because I need you to do something for me” Stephan said while breathing out his cigar smoke.
“During the mission, I want you to get rid of someone” Stephan added.
“Will that be someone from the devil clan?” Ten asked.
“No. It’s someone from our clan. I kept her here thinking she’s going to be useful but it’s clear that she’s becoming a hindrance. I want you to kill her before things get worse”
“Just say the word big boss and I will get it done” Ten said as a evil grin appeared on his face.
Later That Day ~ Shooting Ground
“Hello Dacio” Flora greeted as she approach Dacio who was busy shooting.
“I heard that you are good In Kombat can you teach me?” She asked.
“I don’t think Ricardo will like that” He said which got her squinting her face.
“Ricardo no longer have a hold on me. I work for your father now ” Flora replied
“But still, I don’t want to have any problem with Ricardo” Dacio said as he put his gun down and turn to leave.
Immediately Flora picked up the gun and made to shoot and when Dacio notice this, he quickly went back to her standing behind her while he set the gun properly in her hand.
“You really are a crazy girl!” He muttered which got her grinning sheepishly.
They were both engrossed in what they were doing that they failed to notice Ricardo approach them.
Immediately Ricardo pulled Flora away from Dacio.
“Didnt I warn you not to teach her a thing?” He growled at his brother.
“I just….”
“Stay away from her if you don’t want me to get mad at you” Ricardo warned before pulling Flora off.
“Let go of me Ricardo!” Flora said as she managed to free herself from him.
“What exactly is your problem?” Flora yelled at him.
“My problem? You dare to ask what my problem is when you let any guy whatsoever touch you when you are mine?” He yelled at her.
” I don’t belong to you, Ricardo. I already made that…”
“You do. You are mine okay and so I don’t want any other guy touching or getting close to you. I hate it when someone else touch what’s mine!” He said and Flora could only stare at him.
