My Only Redemption ✔️ [COMPLETE]

Chapter 14

Angie

Luigi slam-dunked into my white couch with his shoes on before helping himself to a jar of cookies on the coffee table. Insensible terror prevented me from snatching my cell phone, which was kicked a few inches away.

He came here with a guy I'd never seen before, he scrapes the tip of his lethal talon against the marble counter in the kitchen and the shriek of it terrified me.

I squinted sweat from my eyes, trying to stay calm. His smile, cold and emotionless was chilling to the bone. How did they get in?

"Vangolio, cookies? What am I saying, you wouldn't eat this even if it kills you to try." Luigi stuffed his mouth.

"So she's Angie," he whispered, slithering closer to me and I instantly peed my underwear.

He sounds like a snake, ready to devour its prey.

"P-Please! just go, I'll give you money, anything, just name it!" He stabs his talon into the chair and ripped through the fabric.

The cold tip of his steel weapon, lifts my chin, forcing me to look at him. Those were the most dangerous blue eyes I've ever seen in my twenty years. One wrong move will result in my head rolling.

"I don't want your filthy money girl," his tongue flicks along the edges of a pierced lip, "I need Serenity's address."

My lips drew in a tight line, glaring at him defiantly and a smirk quirked the corner of my lips.

"Because of you, the Giornno familia is crumbling and the boss has fallen into grave depression. I've never seen him like that." Luigi laments.

Vangolio flexes his fingers so the talons clink, they were impossibly sharp. A single cut from that would be fatal. I gulped down my fear, trying not to show how scared I was.

"I didn't come here to hurt you, give us her address and we'll be on our way." his weapon treads along the curves of my shoulder.

My pores were already clogged with sweat, the salty excretion drips from my face onto my dress.

"Never." I hissed at him.

He laughs crazier than the joker himself and jammed his leather boot next to my head, the spiky iron on the side slightly scraped my cheek. "Interesting, listen closely," his pupils shrink in size, inspecting my face closely. "You cause trouble for the boss's girl, you cause trouble for the Giornno familia."

He spins like a ballerina, hugging himself while he cackles in a frenzy. "I get to use your head as decoration."

But he stops on the final spin, the expression on his face made my blood curdle, sending my entire limbs into shock. "Angie," his voice strangled me without any physical contact and tears flushed out my eyes.

"It would be nice to add your head to my little collection." he snaps his neck to the side and a bone cracks loudly.

I slam a clammy hand over my mouth, shaking brutally.

"You don't want to interfere with the mafia, there are members of the Giornno familia you don't want to come in contact with him..?"

I puked over myself, retching the breakfast that I'd eaten earlier onto my expensive rug.

"Shh... It's alright," he used the tip of his talon to brush strands of damp hair from my face, "Now, now, don't hack all over the place, I need a clean walking area to pull your body out."

I doubled over, coughing violently. My quaking fingers, covered in ingested gunk, cling to his foot. "Rossendale Valley Rawtenstall England!"  

Luigi claps his hand jubilantly, "Good girl, you did the right thing."

I huddled my legs close to my chest. "Just please go."

Vangolio throws me a bottle of water and I catch it.

"If you want to win the boss's heart, no one's stopping you but don't try to tamper with Serenity's dream.." Luigi says meandering towards the door and I wanted to stab him in the back with my kitchen knife.

They both exited my apartment and finally, I could breathe freely. It feels like I've just spoken with death, that Vangolio guy is a force to be reckoned with. If he's like that, I don't want to meet another. Today's events will give me nightmares.

That's the first time anyone has managed to get information out of me. Vangolio, he has to be taken out one way or another. I'll have to fight fire with fire. He's a bigger threat than I'd imagine, he won't be breathing for long when I'm done with him.

Mark my word.

But how? I walked back and forth, pacing with frustration just then something clicked in my mind. I'll get a private assassin to take him out, that way, he can be killed without me dirtying my hands. My smile widens as excitement courses through my veins.

Money is power and power is money. If I can't get Glenn to take me back, nobody else will. So, I'll make sure to carry out this assassination with caution.

I can use one stone to kill two birds. I've taken out my revenge on that cocky boy who insulted me. He and his mother were kicked out the same day, no, more like she was arrested for a theft she was innocent of. See, no one messes with me and gets away with it.

Those two better prepare to die by my hands. Getting rid of them will make it easier for me to drag Serenity's name in the mud. The clock is ticking, how will the wheels of destiny turn? I surely want it to turn in my favor. I grabbed the mop in the corner and started to smash everything in my apartment, from the glass cups in the bar area to the immaculate furniture.

"I hate you Serenity!!"

I slashed the fish tank apart, sending the aquatic animals, crashing onto the splinter. "You will pay!"
