Chapter Book One :- Part Sixteen
A loud groan was heard from behind Gaetano before the guy that was holding a gun on his head collapsed on the floor. Allowing him to grab his gun so fast and he shot his partner straight in the skull freeing Gianni.
Vicente Broccoli was now under the Di Martinos mercy. "How are the Broccoli brothers??" Gianni asked as Gaetano moved forward pulling Larissa out of his hands.
He carried her bridal style in his arms and started walking away but the next words stopped him from going any further " The Broccoli's are not sitting Gaetano.. We will be back" he just shook his head and stared down at Larissa. Her hair was tickling his finger and her arms limply at her sides.
No one was going to hurt his treasure. He was going to protect her with his life and no one was going to touch her again
"Gianni, you know what to do" he said and started walking away with her still in his arms.
Seeing the fear in her eyes, something in his heart clicked. He wasn't the romantic kind but he knew she was pulling him towards her thread per thread.
He was mesmerized by her silence and innocence. She talked less and was always lost in her thoughts.
He wanted her, to resolve in her and feel her tiny hands in his, her soft lips on his. Her body held into his arms but how about the danger around him.
Is he ready to put her in his danger, he knew that the Russian's and the Broccoli will target her as his weakness. He could let her go so she could enjoy her life without him putting her in danger but to be sincere what if he was so selfish to let her go.
His heart race increased in the midsts of his chest as if wanting to move for once out of his skin just to also catch a glimpse of the girl that is affecting it more than it's owner.
She was awakening all the buried nerves and feelings within his body. Rain drops hit on his car window making him look at her through the rear view mirror. She seemed peaceful as she lay on the back seat.
This girl was something, slowly she was taking him. Making his heart beat on her own accord, Controlling his body with just her presence.
Was he falling in love?? Was he ready for all those feelings all over again?? Was he ready to hand over his heart to the daughter of Dante Conzalato??
More and more thoughts kept flowing through his mind like a beautiful river in the midsts of thick forests...

Larissa blinked a few times before adjusting to the little natural light that lit up the room.
She looked around the room that brought out the description of manly, danger and blood and his smell.
Little bit of memories of the day before came rushing back to her.
Dark green colours were painted all over the walls of the room, with a brown carpet below on the floors. A dark couch in the far corner of the wall. A glass window, bedside table and two door on the left She tried sitting up but almost winced in pain which made her m remember the man hitting her hard with something she didn't see, then her father's body and that's when it all came back.
She pushed the brown duvet to the side and stepped down from the bed mostly standing up and walked towards the door that was facing the bed.

One thought played through her mind, her father.. She only wanted to see her father. After closing the door behind her, she stood in the hallway, not knowing where exactly to go.
She turned on her left and started walking searching for what's at the end of the hall, two steps before she ran into a hard chest making her stagger back but he held her firm pulling her to his chest.
Her arms landed on his chest feeling his body tense at her touch, though their was a T-shirt between there skins.
A familiar Cologne invaded her nostrils just as she looked up at him. He was also staring down at her waiting for her look up until there eyes met.
"Gaetano.. " she whispered but didn't give him a chance to reply before she added "Where is my Father??" She was the kind of person that never bit around the bush and always on point if there's one in the room She stared into his blue eyes expecting to at least give something away but she got nothing. His jaw hardened and he closed his eyes.
Making her move out of his grasp. Her heart beat fast with an inching deepening pain. Fear and hurt took over her facial expression.
She knew the answer all the time but she didn't want to believe it yet. Dante wasn't a perfect father but she loved him. He was her dad. "No.. His still alive right??" She whispered more to her self. Gaetano took a deep breath and opened his eyes just to look at Her " Am so sorry.." He whispered and closed the distance between them as she burst in to tears.
He held her as she held onto the hems of his shirt.. His arms moved over to underneath her knees and then on the back of her shoulders carrying her up in his arms and walking back in to his room.

Her hands went to her face covering it as she cried, he was gone.. He wasn't good but how could she deny that she loved him. He was her daddy. Even though most of her memories with him were bad but they also had good times. Gaetano placed her down on his bed and she turned around looking at the other side away from him and to be sincere that hurt him more than the pain he felt for her loss.
Her cries started calming down after a few minutes of both there silence. He let in a harsh breath and breathed out as if gaining his confidence.
He felt her hiccup slowly.. " I know that being close to me brings to this and am sorry Larissa truly though I also wished for his death and that I won't lie...
You will always be there target if you stay by my side and am so selfish to let you go treasure but I can't bare seeing you like this. I want you so bad to let go but I have to say this" he said calmly as she listened her heart beating so hard as a shiver ran through her body.
"You have a choice treasure, am a danger that will eat you up even danger is a bad that wants to be let free from my grasp. Am death it self. The thing here his you can leave Larissa.
Walk out of this room and I promise, I will never follow but if you stay.. Then your selling your self to me and there's no refund" He took a deep breath and waited for her answer.
Her feet fell to the sides of the bed and she stood up as a hiccup escaped her red lips. She headed towards the door in tiny footsteps.
He felt deep shades of blood falling from the wounds of his heart, he felt pain so much pain like the time he had lost Fatima but now it's different.
A girl that was becoming his drug, his treasure was walking away from him, She had chose to leave...
