Sold to the mafia boss

Logan’s P. O. V.

I stormed out angrily, lighting a cigarette as soon as I stepped into my room. I puffed out air, just in time for Dani to step out from the dark corners of the room.

” How is she? ” He asks, causing me to scoff in irritation. He really cares about her, doesn’t he?

Turning around furiously, I said ” you care about Layla so much, huh? what else? You wanna see her? ”

Dani’s face remains unmoved. That bastard, always keeping a permanent posture, it’s nearly impossible to know when he’s upset or happy. I on the other hand was the complete opposite.

” I’m just worried about her, Logan ” he replied.

” Yes, that you are! ” I shut back irritatedly, taking another drag of the cigarette.

Silence broke in and I turned away from him, puffing the air out of the cigarette.

” I’m sorry, Logan.” Dani said gently.

I closed my eyes as his words seemed to hurt my ears. He didn’t have anything to be sorry about. He was right to care about Layla. It was something I wasn’t doing and he was doing it better. I knew Dani would never betray me. He should understand that what was mine was mine and that I wasn’t sharing it with anybody.

Turning around, I dumped the cigarette on the closest ashtray before looking up at his face again.

“Thank you Dani. I do know in fact that Layla isn’t in the best conditions. I got carried away by her escape attempts to actually see how much pain she was in. I will look into matters later ” I said gently to him now.

” Are we heading out soon? ” He asked.

” Yes ” I replied quickly.

” I was thinking. . . . Maybe it would be a good idea to have Antoniette back at the house as we leave. . . . ”

His statement died on the way but I knew exactly what he was saying. Layla wasn’t in the best condition and thus would need help. Antoniette was needed. But I didn’t wanna give her that. Not now.

” Antoniette is in a far place as we speak right now, Dani. She cannot be here as she’s attending to matters far more important ”

Dani hesitates before nodding in understanding.

Astrid arrived early in the evening. As we walked out of the house and headed towards the meeting house, I began to consider Dani’s suggestion to bring Antoniette back to the house. Layla needed all the help she could get right now.

I stopped at the chair I always sat at, at the very end of the long table. I felt my attention divided. Here was Astrid whom I’ve anticipated his arrival for many hours with a valid information that could contribute to my course and yet I can’t seem to get my mind off Layla.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

I’d wanted to spend every last minute with her on that bed. But she didn’t want me. She’d asked me to leave without saying it. Calling me a monster was a loud enough sign that she despised seeing me.

Blinking hard in an attempt to clear my head of her thoughts and face, I looked straight ahead to Astrid who stood at the door, a few of his men slowly walking in.

” He was only able to say a few things, boss ” Astrid spoke after Dani settled down on the seat close to me.

” Let’s hope that little information would be all that I need “I said.

Astrid nods and continued ” I’m sure it is, boss. He wouldn’t say it at first but he did anyway. He just gave me an address to a house without a specified location ”

I turned to look at Dani who shifted knowingly in his seat.

” I’ll have it checked out and get the necessary information ” Dani said to him.

I rose to my feet and said ” well then, I say we’re done here ”

” Boss ” Astrid stops me before I could take the step. I stopped to give him a questioning brow.

” The man said something, ” he continued ” he said something about Jamie not killing your uncle ”

A smile tucked at the side of my lips. Slowly, I stepped towards Astrid and looked into his face.

” Even you would say anything in that position, Astrid. You would know all he said is a lie, Astrid, when the time comes, ” I whispered like it was some secret ” Jamie Templeman is as guilty of my uncle’s murder as he’ll ever be. Common men like his dog would say anything at the brim of death to save themselves. ” I stepped away and towards the exit before adding ” get to work Dani, find our man and get ready to go shed some blood”

I left the silence behind and stepped out into the cold night. It was always cold in this god-damned city. And as I made it up towards my room, I couldn’t help wonder how Layla was faring at this cold hour. As I shut my doors close behind me, I stood for a while, restrain myself from pushing them back open and jumping into her room.

I tugged at the new yellow tie, tossing it on the floor.

Too shouty.

I slid a green one from the rack, wrapping it over my neck before thinking better of it.

Too chirpy.

I plucked out a silky black velvet one and pressed it against my white shirt.

Perfect. I would storm out tomorrow and get this bullshit over with.

My sexual frustration was getting the best of me. I could barely walk straight without thinking of dipping my cock into the nearest open mouth in my vicinity. It’d been too many weeks since the last time I sank my hard-on in a woman’s head, and the last encounter with the fairer sex was lackluster, to say the least.

I tried all my possible best to not step out of my room because if I did, I didn’t trust myself to stop when she begs me to this time.
