Asian Mafia King and the Black Beauty

Chapter 33

       You can't really know 
        Where you are going
         Until you know where you have been.

Imani Pov

"I love too!" I shout from the car. Khalani, Naomi and I decided that we were going to head back to the mansion today. This morning after breakfast, mom explained how I was mixed and now I'm not just black, but I'm also Italian and Hispanic. Mom is half Italian and half black, and dad is half Hispanic and black. 

"Make sure you come visit or I'll drag you back ok!" mom shouts from the front door where she was standing, next to dad.

"Yes we will", all three of us shouted from the car.

"You too Naomi, you better come back".

"Will do Mrs. Abbas".

From there I turned on the engine and started driving to the front gate. Once we exited the property, I started driving to the mansion at high speeds. I always loved driving fast but due to my former situation with my foster mom, I couldn't really drive. 

As we are driving Naomi connected her phone to the cars Bluetooth and started playing Want You by Luh Kel ft. Queen Naija. We vibed to the song and other songs that we played along the way. As we were getting closer to the private road that leads to the mansion, I noticed a black car that's been following us for quite some time now.

I stepped on the gas a bit to try and see if I was hallucinating or we were actually being followed. The minute I stepped on it, the car behind us did the same thing and they were getting closer, that's when I was sure we were being followed. Naomi noticed my sudden change of mood and she turned the music off and looked at me with a worried expression. 

"What's going on", Khalani asked from the backseat.

"Yeah, Imani what's up?"

"Don't look at them directly, but there's a black SUV that has been following us for a while now", Khalani and Naomi quickly stood from their seats and faces the car behind us. The people in the SUV behind us started shooting at us, did I not say don't look directly at them.

"Shit Imani hurry the fuck up!", Khalani shouted from the back.

"Did I not tell your fucking asses to not look directly at them".

"Just fucking drive". They both shouted at the same time.

I stepped on the gas even more and started speeding through the empty road. Naomi pulled out 2 guns from under the seat and handed one to Khalani. I opened the windows and they started shooting back at the car behind us. I turned on a curve so fast, the car could have flipped over if I wasn't a good driver, as I was taking the curve, I span the car around so that we were facing the shooters. I sped through the trees in reverse and we approached the mansion. 

The gates opened immediately when they saw us approaching. I drove up the driveway in high speed and the car in front of us, was still shooting and following us up the driveway. Naomi and Khalani still shooting back as well. The moment we reached the front door, Jin, Jay and Kane were already outside holding their guns. Some of the guards as well. 

The car with the people shooting at us stopped and flipped over after the guys were shooting at them. I span the car around again this time we were facing the front. I stopped the car and we all sat back and caught our breaths. The guys came running towards us, when they reached the damage car with bullet holes in it, they opened the doors and checked if we were ok.

"What the fuck was that?" I heard Jay say from next to Naomi.

"Are you ok?" Jin asked to Khalani from the back. They then exited the car and I was left with Kane.

"Are you hurt?" he asked. Kane then grabbed my hand gently and my heart was beating so fast it could explode. But it wasn't beating fast because of the incident but because of Kane's hand in mine. I started feeling butterflies in my stomach, he was making me nervous. I stared into his chocolate eyes, and I never noticed how beautiful they looked from up close. 

"Imani are you ok" he said with a concerned look. He softly caressed his thumb on my cheek causing my heart to beat even faster. 

"U-uh, yeah I'm ok" I quickly stood up and got out of the car to go see if Naomi and Khalani were ok. I cursed myself out for stuttering.
