Taken By The Mafia Lord

135 All She Needed Was Time

Macy woke up with a startle, it was the first time in a long time she was having that kind of nightmare. But then, it was a long time since she forgot about her revenge as well.

She had never been able to forget that morning; the day her father was killed. When one talked about murders, it had to be done by the big, evil men or women but Macy had seen it all; a little boy killed her father.

Macy remembered the startle in his eyes when she stumbled upon him hiding the gun in the inside of his jacket and she had been fascinated, thinking it was a toy gun until she saw the blood spot on her father’s body as he slumped to the ground.

The scream that left her mouth had been full of shock and pain as she realized at that moment she just lost her father and the changes it would bring to her life.

Macy remembered telling the authorities what she had seen but of course, no one believed her or maybe they had been paid off to never consider her as a witness. She had been in shock and saw things that weren’t real, was what they claimed. But then, what she saw was real.

All that changed when a man that claimed to be her father’s business associate visited her and not only did he believe her, he even gave her a picture and a name.

“Marcelo Luciano,” Macy muttered as she stared hard at the picture of the young boy she had seen that day.

The burden was finally lifted off her shoulder; she had not dreamt that scene that day as she was being told and there was finally a chance to seek vengeance for her father.

The picture of the boy must have been taken unaware because he was looking away from the camera, even at that, there was not a smile on his face compared to the panicky look he had on the day he killed her father. Had he realized it was a mistake to have taken her father’s life at the last minute? Nonetheless, she was coming for him.

.....

Having been given a new purpose, Macy left to settle down with her divorced mother in another country and there she bided her time until she was ready. Macy had not just spent her time abroad living the best of her life like tomorrow doesn’t exist. She had been preparing to end Marcel’s life.

Macy studied Marcel and the Luciano family, thinking of the best way to make them pay for what they did to her father and as well, picking up skills that were essential for her goal.

When she finally returned to the country, she used a forged identity – one that would never be discovered as long as she lived – knowing that if she had gone to the Luciano Family with her current identity, they would figure out her intentions right away and kill her right away even before she steps at their porch.

She got acquainted with a member of the lower hierarchy of the Luciano family, and got the opportunity of carrying out simple tasks for the family. But Macy knew she couldn’t do this forever, not if she wanted to get close to Marcel and accomplish her revenge as soon as possible. At this rate, it might take her forever.

So Macy came up with an extreme plan, one that involved making use of another target close to Marcel, Victor. She put a hit on him and when it was time for the attack, voila! She just happened to be there at the right time to help rescue him and just like that, the connection was established.

Thanks to Victor and “her rescue”, her rank in the gang was increased right away and she was skillful enough for it – her preparations all those years finally paid off. She went from being an associate – the same job her father had taken that got him killed – to a member of the Luciano family taking their Oath and all. Their tattoo on her skin felt like a betrayal against her father’s memory but she knew this was essential for her plan.

Even at that, Macy was not satisfied with her progress; she needed to get within Marcel’s breathing space to be able to end him. And then, as if the heavens were on her side, an opportunity came and she took advantage of it. With her plan finally coming into place, she dumped Victor, wait – no, Victor did her the favor first.

But then, life was quite funny because even when Macy finally got all she needed to exact her revenge, she couldn’t do it. After all, she was in love with him. She sympathized with her father’s killer.

After living with Marcel for a while, she finally understood why Marcel finally did it and it wasn’t like her father was innocent either. As she grew up, Macy discovered the shady deals her father was involved with, even more lethal and illegal than the ones the Luciano family was involved with. No wonder her mother left him. Her father was not the superhero she made him out to be.

Even at that, she wanted to fulfill all righteousness and that was to avenge her father. Hence one day, she drugged Marcel without him or any member of the Clan noticing, after all, it wasn’t weird for her to be with him indoors. Then she pointed the gun at his head and even with the sheer amount of time on her hands, Macy was unable to pull the trigger.

But the same could not be said for now as Macy stared at her reflection in the mirror. Her nose was almost completely healed and soon, she would be back at work again. Yet she was unable to forget the fact that Marcel almost killed her for a girl he hardly even knows when she gave up her own revenge for him.

Getting his affection was the only thread Macy had been hanging on to after she forsook her revenge, but now that the thread has been cut off, Macy was left with nothing but her revenge.

And unlike the last time, she would not kill him but hit him where it hurts the most so his heart breaks a thousand pieces the same way her heart did when he pointed that gun at her head for Arianna’s sake.

All she needed was time.
