Taken By The Mafia Lord

539 Hello Brother

Someone was following him, and Elijah sensed it as he continued to walk with ease. The fun part of being trailed is by pretending you weren’t being followed and beating them in their own game in the end.

He couldn’t help but wonder who it was this time. Was it Luciano’s men again? He thought that game had gotten old? Moreover, he and Adele had spent the entire time in bed last night and she even gave him a day off to compensate him for his help in helping Marcel in Clara’s matter. Does she still not trust him? That was his intention.

However, finding out about Clara was as easy as pie. All he had to do was to seek help from Jason. His brother, Eric’s second in command was so good at tracking people down his skill was almost unrivaled. He was like a hell hound that would sniff one wherever he hid and that made him the man for the job.

But it seems even after what he had done, Adele still doesn’t fully trust him. He thought he had her wrapped around his finger, but that was Adele, strong and untrusting, Elijah released a slightly sarcastic smirk. She was duty bound to Marcel and It wouldn’t be like her if she foolishly trusted him like that. However, he would remedy that today because the best way to win one’s trust is to confront one’s suspicion.

Elijah was on a leisure walk when he was followed, hence he cut into the street and took a series of turns that he was sure would befuddle his tracker. And while he waited, hiding in the alleyway, his tracker came into view and Elijah grabbed him, pushing the man up against the wall only for surprise to sprawl across his face when he saw who it was.

“Jason?” Elijah croaked, surprise making him lose his voice.

Without a word, Jason brushed his hands off him and straightened his suit with a frown. But then, Elijah was too distracted, he didn’t see the attack coming. Jason suddenly grabbed his arm and twisted it behind him, pain furrowing his brows. Was this asshole sparing with him in the middle of the street? He can’t be serious.

However, Elijah forgot one thing, Jason was his brother’s subordinate and no matter how much the man helped him out, his loyalty still lay with Eric and that included carrying out his order.

He had gotten too comfortable with the man and that cost him because Elijah felt a piercing stab behind his neck and it wasn’t until the shock wore off seconds later that he discovered that the man just drugged him.

.....

“You!” Rage filled Elijah and he began to attack Jason, but the man was his teacher, nor did he have any no urge to harm him, so he went on the defensive.

“Why?” Betrayal stabbed into Elijah’s chest as he continued to fight him but it was obvious it was a losing battle. Whatever Jason shot him with, it was beginning to work because his legs felt like jelly.

“Something came up and Eric needs you home,” He told him.

“No, I can’t go home... ” Elijah tried to summon his strength back which was impossible.

“I thought so, which is why I had no choice but to use this method. The drug would paralyze your bodily function until you finally pass out, so you should cooperate and I get you out of here with dignity, rather than drag you along like a criminal. Your choice. ” Jason coldly offered him.

He couldn’t run away in this state, Elijah weighed the options in his head and none of them were positive because it ended up with Jason catching up with him. And one thing about Jason was that he was cold and detached whenever on a mission, Elijah did not doubt he would make true of his threat of dragging him along if he dared to run. He had no choice but to surround to the devil.

“Let’s go,” Elijah decided, taking a step only to discover that his legs had completely given up on him and he was in danger of falling. However, the ever faithful to his words, Jason, was there to catch him and pulled him up to his side.

“What drug is this?” Elijah asked, having not seen something like that. Even his tongue was beginning to feel like lead in his mouth. Whoever designed this was crazy.

“Ask your brother Ephraim, he has been busy with his experiments lately and he would be happy to know I used you as a test subject,” Jason said dryly.

“Haha...” Elijah could only laugh with sarcasm because his tongue felt heavy and he wasn’t able to speak.

Perhaps, going home was not exactly a bad thing because he needed drugs like this one if he wanted to burst Arianna out of Marcel’s prison. However, it was risky as well, especially if Adele looked around for him, he didn’t have any backup plan. Hopefully, she assumes he’s just enjoying his day off.

Elijah leaned on Jason the entire time and the moment they came to the roadway, a car pulled up as if it had been waiting all this while and Jason opened the door, dumping him inside before climbing in after him.

He didn’t have any complaints as the car drove off except for the fact his body was shutting down. Elijah panicked a little when he felt the general body weakness, it almost felt like he was dying or maybe he was. What if Jason gave him the wrong dose?

His eyes finally closed and he seamlessly journeyed through endless darkness until he registered pain for the first time. However, Elijah didn’t want to wake up because he felt a great peace until he felt the second stinging pain and that cleared the haze he was in.

Elijah forced his eyelids open only to make out a blurry outline of someone standing in front of him and patting his cheeks. When the sleep cleared from his eyes, it was Eric standing before him and he waved at him.

“Hello, little brother,” He said with that overbearing arrogance in his tone, “Nice of you to drop by.”

Elijah groaned.
