LEALTÀ- Chapter Thirty-six

We laid down on the bed besides eachother. His hand grazed my thigh as we both breathed heavily.

"You're fucking amazing woman." Nicola chuckles with closed eyes. I smell his collogne and kiss him on his chest. I lay my head on his chest and I can feel myself drift into sleep. "You tired, Miele?" He asked. I gave him a hmm, and he chuckled.

"I might need to take it easy with you next time." I looked up st him and he smiled. He gave me a kiss on my lips and I laid down my head again.

"I love you Castello." I said in a sleepy voice. "I love you too, soon to be Castello." And that was all I heard before I drifted away in sleep.

-

"KIMBERLY!" I could hear my name being called out in panic. And it woke me up in panic! I quickly put on the tights and the black t-shirt I wore before. I put up my hair in a messy bun, before I opened the door to the hallway. But I stoped in my tracks.

A big man who I did not recognize came running towards me. All dressed in black and with the biggest knife in history in his hand. I paniced, and shut the door as quickly as possible. But I didn't have time...

He was already inside.

"Come here you fucking bitch!" I looked around in the room, looking for something! I tried to remember what Kian taught me that night...

Find something quick. In seconds you could be dead. Don't think, just do it.

My eyes got sight on a metal pipe against the wall. It was supposed to be in the dancing room for me and Ella. So I could teach her how to stand straight with her legs.

I took the pipe, and held it as tight I could in my hands. Gunshots could be heard from downstairs and it felt like I were going to puke.

"COME HERE!" The man ran towards me, tried to throw the kife at me, but I dodged it with the metal pipe. He was so tall, no hair but a big beard. He could easily kill me.

"Who the fuck are you!" I yelled, as I tried to attack him with the pipe.

His soulless eyes looked into mine. As he smiled and said,

"We just want you dead!" I screamed out for Desta, but more gunshots were to be heard from downstairs. Panic in my whole body. I couldn't escape.

Except for one way. Call me crazy, but I am.

The window.

It's only the second floor, what could go wrong?

I put the pipe in my hands and held it as hard as I could, before I tried to smash it into the mans head. It bought me time, as I ran with all my power I had in my body, towards the big windows.

And I ran right through them. I could feel how the glas cut my skin, and it felt like all my air in my lungs just disappeared. I landed on my hip, and I could hear that it wasn't good, as the bone craking didn't sound or feel so pleasant!

"THE WHORE ESCAPED! I'LL GET HER!" The man stood upstairs, looking down on the ground, the window not having glas anymore to protect the world outside. I pushed myself up, ignoring the pain my body was going through.

"Shit!" I cursed under my breath as I saw two more men running towards me. I limped my way to a door which led to the basement. I typed in the password and the door opened. Right before my eyes the door shut but...

A hand came between it but luckily for me. The door closed with a big bang and the persons hand must've broke, because bones could be heard being crushed. It made me want to vomit...

I limped the rest of the way to the big hiding room. I yelled for help or anyone... but only one voice could be heard.

"Schh! Don't let them know you're here." I turned around in panic, but I saw Alexandro standing there with Ella.

Ella was crying but Alexandro muffled her cries with his hand. He looked worried. "Are you okay?" He asked me. I looked down at my leg, blood pouring out of it. But I just turned around so Ella wouldn't see it...

"I'm fine. What's going on, Alex?" I asked him, while I found bandage, and rolled it around the wound. Wincing at the same time.

"Another mafia...we called for help to others, but it will take some time. Kimberly. It's war."

Panic exploded in my veins as the heavy, secured door was about to not be so secured anymore. Someone was trying to break in. I looked around, my head spinning. Couches, tv, a bed and a big bookshelf was in the room. I quickly walked towards Alexandro and Ella,

"Quick! Get under the bed!" I tried to push Alexandro but he shook his head. "No, you take Ella and hide. I will stay here." I pleaded him with my eyes, but he stood his ground.

In seconds I took Ella, and we hide under the bed. And the big door was being aggressively opened, and fell to the ground.

Gunshots erupted in the room, making my ears almost bleed. I covered Ella's ears and I tried to make her look at me and not at the scene in front of us.

And that's when my heart dropped as far as it could.

Alexandro flew down onto the floor, blood pouring out of his mouth. His hands were shaking, trying to stop all the blood coming out of his chest. Tears started to run down my face and my heart broke.

"no, no, no-" I cried and said to myself. I began to tremble as I watched the legs of a man I didn't know, walking out of the room, just...disappeared into nothing.

I ran towards Alexandro, holding onto his hand. He looked so...Calm?

"Alexandro please..." I begged. I placed my forhead on his, as I cried my heart out. Ella stayd where she was, as I told her not to look.

"It-It's okay, Kim. This life is tough." He coughed making more blood pour out of his mouth. "But I'm done now. I've lived, loved and done everything I've ever dreamed of. Just promise me..." he coughed again, "promise me you stay with Desta. Don't leave him, or anyone here. You are the reason everyone's here." I cried as I shut my eyes closed.

"Promise!"

"Alexendro, I can't let you go! Not now." I begged him, but a faint smile came upon his lips. "Please promise me?" I noded to him and he laid his head down.

"I need to let go. It doesn't hurt, Kim. I'm so happy I met you. You're an amazing person. Thank you..." He looked me in the eyes, until...

He took his last breath, and his eyes shut closed.
