Chapter Twenty
Amore was going through some documents in his office when a call came through from an unknown contactNôvelDrama.Org content rights.
“I believe I am speaking with Marco Amore?” the voice which sounded like Russian asked
“Who is this?” Amore asked closing his file
“I am Vladimir, the leader of the Serdof Cartel” The voice introduced himself “I got information that you are currently the leader of the Elites and I wish to know why you asked your men to kill my men when they asked for Tax” Amore chuckled for a moment before replying;
“Whether is Vamir or Vladimir, I don’t fucking care. Listen, we are the Elites and I am certainly not the pussy that you think of my brother Giovanni. I will have you know that the days of paying Taxes to you are over” Amore indicated.
“You are treading on a very dangerous path Marco Amore. Your brother was smart and calculative enough to know who is dealing with. Now here is what I have to say to you; the next shipment that will leave the warehouse here in Russia would be charged and if your men try anything stupid again, I swear to God, I will have their balls for dinner” Vladimir threatened.
“Now here is my own warning to you Vladimir; the next time your men dare stops any of our shipment from being exported because you wish to get your taxes, I will not only kill them all, but I will show you why the Elites have been the top guns in the underground world” Amore threatened before hanging up.
Amore was really pissed; he wasn’t happy with the fact that Vladimir had the audacity to even call him and so he decided to stick with a contingency plan to prove a point home.
“Hello Zeus, I have a job for you”

Giovanni was pacing about in his living room waiting for the said FBI agents to arrive. He wasn’t scared that it was a code red alarm, he knew that the FBI agents couldn’t arrest him because of the influence the Elite has in every sector. After waiting for some hours, he called Lucifer to know if they were still coming but his line went to voicemail. He became worried because Lucifer wasn’t the type to leave his phone on voice mail especially when in the line of work. Giovanni decided to call Intel directly to verify if the FBI were still coming.
“Are they still coming?” Giovanni asked upon the latter picking up the call.
“I am sincerely sorry for the mix up sir but it was a false alarm” the agent stated causing Giovanni grip his hands in rage
“What the hell do you mean false alarm” Giovanni didn’t get any reply as the line went off causing him to throw the device on the wall which shattered to pieces. He needed something to cool off his rage and so went to get a bottle from the fridge. He was in rage because he had sent his wife and son away to Spain because of the information and now he needed to call them back. He sat down in the living room and decided to turn on the television. The moment the visuals came on, Giovanni dropped his bottle from his hands.
“NO!” He screamed upon seeing the headline.

The world was without form and darkness covered the surface of Bianca’s vision when she awoke from consciousness. She had a banging headache and it made her want to just hold her head but she felt something restricting her from touching her head. She felt her wrists being tied with something; ropes, that was what she presumed.
As though something moved its magic wand on her, she became alarmed; Alonso! She thought to herself and tried to struggle free from the ropes but they were too tight for her. She tried reminiscing back to the event that brought her here.
Few hours ago..
“Why is Giovanni sending me to Spain, Lucifer?” She asked as they drove across the free road with surprisingly no car yet to be seen.
“I am sorry Bianca, I am not in the position to tell you the nature of things but I believe you should ask the boss when he returns” Lucifer suggested to her.
“Uhm Lucifer, we have a situation on hand, three black mustangs at our back for over ten minutes now and are not looking to speed pass our vehicle” Micheal stated to Lucifer still looking at the rearview mirror.
Lucifer made a turn to the left side of the free road, but the cars were still behind him. “Get the gun Micheal” He instructed.
Bianca on the other hand had listened to what Micheal had said and could only pray it was just a moving vehicle by the road.
Suddenly, out of the blue, the two black mustang increased their movement and they sped past their vehicle and came to a stop at the front causing Lucifer to pull the brakes why Bianca was gripped by fear holding on to Alonso. The doors of the mustangs opened and armed men came out of the car and began coming for their vehicle.
“Stay right here” Lucifer instructed Bianca who was already struck with fear and held her son tight. The two men also got down from the car with their pistols in their hands. Bianca hadn’t been in a situation like this before, she hadn’t grasped the situation of things when sounds of gun caused her to shut her ears with one hand and still holding Alonso with the other as the child cried on. The sound of the shooting stopped and there was silence for a few minutes.
Bianca opened one of her eyes and looked as one of the men approached the vehicle; she became alarmed and many thoughts ran through her mind with the obvious one staring at her in the face; these men were here to take her.
“No, please stop, don’t hurt my child!” Bianca cried out as the man who had approached the vehicle snatched Alonso out of her hands. She tried struggling but she felt large arms grip her from the back causing her to swiftly turn and look at another masked man who had opened the door behind her.
“Who are you people? Please don’t hurt him I beg you” Bianca kept on struggling with the masked man that held her. She watched as the man who held her child took him to their car and as she tried to fight her way from the tight grips of the masked man holding her, she felt something sharp pierce her skin and at that instant, she became dizzy and weak, not able to fight. The cry of her child was the last thing she heard and the fact that she felt someone lift her up off the ground before she went into Oblivion.
In the Present time
Bianca heard a door open and she heard the sound of footsteps approaching her; she could detect that whoever had entered was wearing a heavy boot judging from the sound. Suddenly, light flicked and she had to shut her eyes tight as she tried to adjust to the rays of the light. When her eyes were finally getting used to the light, she scanned through her environment to notice she was in some sort of room judging from the fact that it had a bed. Her eyes immediately went on to the presence of the person who had turned on the lights. He wore black from head to toe, he was masked in black. Bianca could not help but also notice that he had hair as she had deduced it from the strands coming out of the mask.
“Who are you and what do you want from me?” She asked the man who ignored her as though she wasn’t in the room.
“Please don’t hurt me, I beg you I didn’t do anything. If it is money you want, my husband has lots of it please I beg you” she went on and on rambling but the man ignored her totally. “Please, I’m begging you,” she added.
“One thing about you Bianca, you haven’t learned the art of shutting the fuck up!” Another voice came to the limelight causing her to shift her attention to the familiar voice. She gasped upon seeing who it was.
“Impossible!” She exclaimed
“Surprised to see me?” The lady with the black smirked as she looked on at Bianca who was trying to recover from the shock.
“How can you be here Imade? Why have I been kidnapped” Bianca asked.
“Because I have always waited for the moment where I can finally get my revenge. Seeing you were never going to come back to us and living a lavish lifestyle with Giovanni, I thought having a taste of that life would be fun as well.” Imade explained, drawing a chair closer and sitting right in front of her cousin.
“Giovanni can never love you.” Bianca said with a rage filled tone.
“That is where you are wrong my dear, now that you are out of the equation, it only leaves me with him and I can assure you I will have him to myself” Imade explained with a smirk.
“Giovanni would never love you Image” Imade chuckled and stood up from the seat, approached her and bent down to her knee
“Let’s see if he wouldn’t love me when I use his son as bait” Imade said, standing at her feet.
“You are the baby mama they have been talking about? The mentally unstable lady? How did you do it?” Bianca asked with widened eyes
“Of Course dear cousin, anyways now that I am back, I will make sure you and Giovanni don’t ever stick together, I will let the entire world know that your marriage with him was a scam and In Fact, you were only his baby mama” Imade explained laughing afterwards at the brilliance of her plans.
“Anyways, don’t worry I will make sure to relate to Priscilla that the men feed you well enough so that you won’t die a miserable death even though that is what I wish for. Wait, oops! I guessed I was just telling a tale” she said with a smile.
Bianca couldn’t believe it; Priscilla was also part of the scheme? She should have known better than trusting that woman a bit.
“Bye for now” Imade said, blowing her a kiss and leaving her afterwards with the same masked man who had first entered the room.
