Chapter 40

ALEXEI'S POV

I'm currently sitting in my office in on of our warehouses with my dad. We're going over some paperwork regarding the mafia when dad's phone suddenly rang.

I looked up from the paper I was signing and looked at my dad. He looked at the caller and a smile broke on his face.

"Antonio, how are you брат(brother)." My dad said cheerfully. But it was immediately gone the second Antonio answered and a serious expression washed over his face.

I could hear Antonio's stressed voice from where I was sitting and I could tell that it wasn't good news.

My dad was listening carefully and nodding his head along with what Antonio was saying although he couldn't see him.

Suddenly dad sat up straighter in his seat and his eyes were wide open. He heaved out a sigh and ran his hand through his hair.

I also sat up straighter in my leather chair and looked at him questionably. He looked at me and shook his head.

They talked on the phone for a bit and as the seconds passed so did my dad's anger and stress. What could be so bad that had both mafia men so stressed?

I ran my hand through my black hair which I inherited from my dad and massaged the base of my neck as I waited for my dad to finish his call.

When he hung up he threw his phone on my desk and stood up and started pacing the room while massaging his temples.

"Папа(dad), what's wrong?" I asked looking at him waiting for an explanation.

He stopped pacing and looked at me blankly. He came to the desk and took his phone. He quickly dialed someone's number and when the person answered he only said "Офис.Теперь(office.Now)" And then hung up.

Not even a minute later a knock was heard. "Enter." I said.

Three of our soldiers entered the office with their blank faces.

"Дон(Don) you wanted to see us?" One of them said looking at my dad.

My dad nodded his head and took his phone and opened. He read something and then looked up at them blankly.

"Jake Thompson. You'll follow his every move. He'll not get out of your sight. I want his every move reported back to me. Да?(yes?)."

Who the fuck is Jake? And what did he do to piss off Antonio?

"Да Дон(yes don.)." The three of them said in unison and then dad took his phone and texted something.

The three of the soldiers phone's beeped at the same time and they took out their phones.

"I sent you a photo of him. Memorize his face and watch him closely. You're dismissed." He said and they left the room.

"Dad what the fuck is going on?" I asked frustration clearly seen on my face.

He looked at me and sighed, he took a seat and gestured for me to do the same.

"It's Mirabelle." He said looking at me for a reaction which he got.

I got up from my seat when I heard my queens name. My hands began sweating as the thought of something bad happening to her. The thought of her being hurt made my heart hurt.

"What happened to her? Is she okay? W-" I fired questions at him not giving him time to answer when he yelled at me.

"ALEXEI." I stopped my rambling and looked at him with a sorry expression.
