Those bastards were definitely going to pay for this when the time comes, but for now-i need to look after my girl. Now wasn't the Right time to tell her about, what had happened to her grandmother.

I slowly walked over to her hoping I don't scare her off, l knelt down right before her and tried reaching for her arms, but she immediately recoil. "Don't -she said, Do not come any closer ".

You are a monster.

An evil man.

I took in a deep breath, well you are stuck with these monster for the rest of your days.

She looked up at me eyes terribly hurt by my harsh words. I got up, pulling her along with me. She struggled to get free but she couldn't.

I pulled her in front of the window, pulling open the curtains and pointed towards the disaster left afterwards, This is my world and now yours, I am the head of one of the world's mostly deadliest mafia, you may have heard of us "we are called the Calabas",and tonight attack was as a result of Retaliation for the Death ,of the mother of one of the other side . By the time I was done talking I pulled her from the window to face me, now do you finally "understand me " you told me earlier that you wanted to understand me, well these is me.

She fell to her feet, almost like she had no bones left in her body,she Clutched her hands to her Heart, and Screamed in agony, crying like her days were Over.

I knew I was selfish, I took an innocent and sweet girl like Mariana and tossed into my world of danger and cruelty. I wouldn't blame her if she decided she would never speak to me again, but it doesn't go beyound that.

I looked down at a shattered Mariana, pale and all hope lost in her eyes. Before I could speak, she quitely said "please kill me, I said kill me! She screamed ".

She got up and kept hitting me, she even throw things at my head, if it was anybody, they would have being dead by now. But it wasn't just anybody it was my "wife" and I have wronged her, deeply and I deserve and take whatever punishment she would give me.

We went on for almost the whole night, before she finally fell asleep, Tears deried up on her face, pain etched in her appearance even as she slept.

The morning came quickly, I got dressed ready for some meetings, what Mariana saw yesterday, was a side of me that was know only to a few people. By the time she was up I was perfectly ready for the day .

She got up and walked past me like I didn't even exist. My heart felt pain, but I knew I deserve it. I spoke my voice void of any emotion they are new staffs arriving today, I said since the old ones were caught up in Yesterday caulties, I.... She just laughed so you are going to Replace your "Dead staff "like they were nothing -she finally turned around, looking straight at me, who made the mistake of having an unfortunate soulless Human as a child she looked me dead in the eyes "you are the Devil, and I count the days I have left here on earth ,so I can get away from you".

She stared diggers at me, before walking away.

Mumbling something that sounded like I hope you riot in hell.

I use to think that I don't care about people's love or hatred towards me, but it felt like a sharp sword is being Pierced through my heart, and it was left they bleeding.

I closed my eyes, and I got downstairs only to see my right hand man Gunner pacing back and forth, the moment he saw me he rushed over "Boss "we got a big problem -one of our shipment is missing, it as being stolen ,which one I said, already blinded by anger, the one with the "powders".

I could feel my blood boil, "Lorenzo Mendoza"and his men had definitely gone to far, if it war they want, then it war I will deliver.

I looked at Gunner, go and take some men Along with you find every Boutique, stores, warehouse even Restaurants that belong to those Scums and burn it all to the ground.

Gunner went no question asked.

"Wow",I looked and realised Mariana was quietly listening to our conversation, she came down the stairs, but did not alter a word to me.

But some how I desire to give her an explanation, which was strange, because I never make any of my decisions accountable to anyone. "Not even the heavens",but here I was worried about what a twenty one year old under grad thought about me.

I wanted to try to explain things to her properly, but I decided against it, instead I told her, to stay out of my way, and out of sight of my Men.

Before walking out the door.

The day was filled with conference calls and series of meetings, but she was all I could think of, her hurtful words, her hateful eyes. I knew I deserve it all, but it didn't make it hurt less, and it was only the beginning, by the time she finds out about her grandmother's Death, leaving me or killing herself will become one of her choices.

And I Definitely want allow any of it.

I pulled up at the the front of the house, later that evening, getting out of the car only to see the door abit ajar, I reached for my Gun, walked in slowly just as I was about to move upstairs, I saw Mariana standing at the top of the stairs, A Gun to her head, she then said quietly answer me this.

"Did you kill my grandmother ".
