Romeo The Mafia Casanova

Dominic stared out the side window as one of his employees, Ray, drove him to the side of town where they knew Marino was keeping the girl. The nighttime darkness would help with the mission, but it would also make it hard to see anything, and they couldn’t carry flashlights.

“Pull over here. We need to wait for some backup.”

Ray nodded and pulled over.

His phone rang. “Dominic.”

“We’re on Ninth and Carver,” Graham said.

“We’re one street over. How do you think we should do this?” Dominic asked.

“Let’s park behind the old Carver’s Market, and we’ll go from there.”

“All right.”

He turned to Ray’s. “Go to Carver’s Market and park behind it.”

“You got it,” Ray said.

The driver turned off the lights as they pulled behind the building where Graham and his men were standing around and talking.

“Holy fuck. You know the Macleans?”

“Yeah. They’re family.”

“I didn’t know this.”

“We’ll talk about it later.” He walked over to Graham.

“Hey, I brought my brother, Duncan, Angelica’s husband. I don’t think you guys have met yet,” Graham said.

Dominic got to Graham and Duncan and shook their hands. “Thanks for the help.”

Graham nodded. “Are you armed?”

Dominic pulled out two nine-millimeters.

Graham nodded. “Let’s go. I sent a guy ahead of us toscout it out for us.”

They stopped a few buildings away from the warehouse where they kept the girl. Graham got a text from someone, put his phone away, and brought out his gun.

“Tommy said to go in from the south. There’s a side door he unlocked. He said we could go into it. It goes to a hallway, and then there are a few rooms before the main area where all the guys are. He doesn’t know how many.”

Dominic nodded. He was ready for anything.

“When we get in, we’ll find the room the woman is in. You stay there and wait until you hear guns, then break in and take the girl out and away toward our cars. We’ll be right behind you.”

“Be careful. My sisters will kill me if you get hurt.”

Graham and Duncan grinned.

They found the door and Graham’s guy waiting for them.

“It’s this way, boss.” Tommy led them into the building and down the hallway.

Dominic slid in behind Graham and Duncan. Duncan tried gently tried every door and found the locked one.

Graham pointed.

Dominic nodded and put his back to the door and his gun up. It seemed to take forever until he heard yelling and gunfire. He turned and kicked open the door. He found the woman right away, cowering in the corner in just her bra and panties, and he went to grab her.

She screamed.

“I’m here to help you. Let’s go.” He grasped her arm and dragged her behind him. Fuck, it sounded like a massacre was happening with all the shots going off.

Dominic turned them away from the action and started running. One of his hands kept a tight grip on the girl, and his other had his gun up and ready. He hid them behind a dumpster and shook the screaming girl. “Listen, I’m trying to help you. Stop the fucking fighting.”

“How do I know you’re not worse than these guys?” she asked.

“You’ll just have to trust me.”

“I don’t trust anyone anymore.”

What could he say to that when her own cousin sold her for a bet? “We’ll talk later. Come on.”

He got them to the corner of the building, whipped his head around the corner to check it, and didn’t see anything. “Let’s go.”

They hadn’t gone five feet before a guy stepped out in front a few yards away from them with a gun pointed at him.

Dominic could tell the guy looked desperate, making the situation more volatile.

“Give me the fucking cunt.”

Dominic knew they didn’t have a lot of time, so he said, “No, she’s mine.” Without flinching, he pulled the trigger of his gun, hitting him in the forehead and taking him down.

The girl screamed, but he didn’t take the time to comfort her. He just dragged her after him.

When they got to the car, Ray straightened. “Holy fuck.”

“Get the back door,” Dominic said.

Ray quickly opened it and stood back.

Dominic pushed the girl in and turned to Ray. “Do you have a coat or blanket?”

“I have a sweatshirt in the trunk.”

“Get it.”

Dominic stared at her until Ray handed him the shirt.

“Now turn the car around and back up. The Macleans will be coming, and we’ll follow them home.”

“To their house?” Ray asked.

“I’m guessing yes. You won’t stay after you drop us off. I need you to go back to the lounge and help Buzz.” He got in thecar.

Ray nodded and started it.

Dominic turned toward the girl. Of what he could see of her, she was really beautiful, with long, light-blonde hair and dark eyes. She was also tiny. Maybe as small as his mother and sisters. He noticed her shivering, but since it was sweltering out, he guessed it was from shock.

“Everything’s going to be okay.”

She pushed herself into the corner and shook her head. “No, it’s not. It will never be okay.”

He decided not to fight her right then. “Let’s put this on.”

He carefully moved toward her and ignored her flinch when he reached out. “Easy. I’m just going to put this around you. It will cover you and help with the shivering.”

She let him put the sweatshirt around her back and then helped get her arms in it before he zipped it up.

“We’ll get you taken care of when we get back to the house.”

“Whose house?”

“The Macleans.”

Her eyes widened. “Aren’t they one of the mafia families in the city?”

“Yes.”

“You’re a Maclean?”

“No, I’m a Moretti. My sisters are married to a few of the Maclean men.”This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

“I know that name, too. I’m dealing with two mafia families now? Maybe I’m better off with the other guy.”

Dominic grunted. “You’ll find out more about all of us. You’re in the right hands. Just do what I tell you, and”

“I want to go home.”
