Taken By The Mafia Lord

380 Threat

Fred handed a slip to the soldier at the entrance and after they did a little inspection on their faces, they let them in and Arianna and Mimi were able to breathe. However, both of them knew that this was just the beginning.

“I hate this place,” The other lady seated at the back hissed, “It’s so scary and intimidating, not to mention that the men here carry guns around. If I wasn’t mistaken, I would say they are the Mafians? Why does the boss even send us here? I’m so scared for my life,” She complained.

“The boss sends us here because the money they pay puts food on his table and pays his bills and he, in turn, sends our paycheck, does that answer your question?” said the other guy that wasn’t creeping Arianna out nor did he stare at her in a way that made her uncomfortable. If anything, he minded his business.

“He’s right, Miriam,” Grace said this time, “Whether they are the Mafia or not, all that matters is that we do our business and get out of their hair, period. They wouldn’t do anything to us if we don’t offend them and hopefully, we don’t.”

And at that statement, Arianna and Mimi looked at each other once more. If only the crew knew they were here to do exactly what they dreaded, offending the Mafia, they would cast them off immediately.

Fred drove through the miles and miles of land separating the properties. Arianna had once thought Marcel’s security consciousness was too much, but compared to this, the vast acres of land that kept anyone from coming top close to the property was just paranoid.

Just how many people had Daniel offended that he would rather stay isolated from the world than risk his life forming a social relationship? It was just too much and the severity of this mission was beginning to dawn on them.

Just like Marcel said, one mistake and they were dead. With the many empty lands before them, Arianna had no doubt that there was plenty of space to bury all six of them – Yes, the life of the innocent cleaners were in their hands as well.

Finally, they reached the property and Arianna knew the moment they had been waiting for was here. She fingered the USB and lighter in her hand and though she was confident in her skills, the soldiers at the entrance scared her.

.....

But their presence sobered her at once, reminding her that she can’t die, especially not here. She refused to became manure for Daniel’s garden. Although she had not met the man face to face aside from pictures Marcel showed before going on this mission, Arianna hoped she doesn’t meet him.

However, if she does get married to Marcel, that meant the man was her psycho father in law. Okay, that was a subject she was not going to approach for now. Future problems would be solved in the future, for now, there was her present ones.

“Alright, hand over your phones, people!” Grace ordered, bringing out a small bag that she would use to collect them all and probably, hand them over to the guard that had step forward, waiting for them to alight.

“And this is one of the reason I hate this place,” Miriam murmured, putting both her phone and purse in the bag.

“Wait, there’s another?” Mimi asked out of curiosity mixed with dread.

“Oh, you bet,” Miriam sneered and Arianna knew that anger was not directed at them, but the three soldiers waiting for them at the entrance.

They all came down as soon as Grace was done collecting their devices and she handed it to the soldier, who in turn handed it to the other soldier beside him who left with it. No doubt, he was going to hide it where they couldn’t find it until they were done with the job – as if they could steal it in the first place.

“I see new faces,” said the soldier, who seems to be their leader – or at least, for this search. Arianna had no idea nor did she care. What mattered now was getting inside with the devices undiscovered.

“They’re from our branch abroad,” Grace answered with a furrow on her face when she saw the man approach Jade.

This was not happening, Arianna groaned when the man stood right in front of her, his gun strapped behind his back when he reached out and grabbed her chin, tilting her head from side to side and checking her out as if she was some sort of goods.

Arianna clutched her fist so hard because she was tempted to punch that man right in the face, but she couldn’t. It was at that moment that Arianna realized the privileges she had enjoyed while under Marcel.

These people, they were brutal and savage and had no regard for anybody, especially women, yet Marcel did not subject her to that, if anything, he treated her well and yet, she took liberties with him. If it had been these man, he wouldn’t hesitate to shoot her dead – after having his way with her forcibly. She was lucky with Marcel.

“She’s good product,” The man said suggestively, chewing his gum with a smug grin.

“Get your disgusting hands off me!” Arianna hissed when she couldn’t endure him any longer.

“And feisty as well!” He laughed out aloud, his other teammates joining him.

Animals! Arianna was burning with fury. They should have been taught better manners!

“We are here to do our job, sir!” Grace said sternly, adding immediately, “Surely, you wouldn’t like it if we were to report for harassment,” She tried to threatened him.

However, Arianna knew that was not going to work. These people were on the other side of the law and before Grace would even report them, they would have killed her already. She doesn’t even realize the danger she’s putting herself in by threatening them.

“We are just here to do our job, sir unless you don’t want that and then, we would gladly get back to our boss,” Arianna said, shifting his attention back from Grace to her.

If the news were to get to the boss, David, he was likely going to inform Daniel of the interruptions and the man would get to the root of the matter. In one word, this soldier would be in trouble.

The soldier must have sensed the subtle threat in Arianna’s words because his eyes flashed and he said in a not-so-friendly tone, “Of course not, I would be a fool to interrupt your work, however, these disgusting hands would have to search you thoroughly,”
