Capturing Her Heart (Ongoing)

Chapter 15: Anger

If you don't know Italian I'll put in the translation for you. Also, I don't know Italian, I only know Spanish, so if you know Italian and it doesn't sound correct just know I got it from Google Translate.😊

My phone starts to ring and I answer it.

"Sì" (Yes)

"Capo Abbiamo Informazioni sull'attacco" (Boss we have information on the attack)

"Che cos'è?" (what is it)

"È stato Alexander Santos a mandare l'uomo" (It was Alexander Santos who sent the man)

Anger erupts in me. That fucking bastard!

"Grazie" I hang up and slam my fist on the desk. Why the hell would he decide to come back, I thought I taught him a lesson! I need to punch something.

I stand up from my desk and go out of my office. I walk down the hallway until I reach big double doors. I open them and go in. I go punch a punching bag to let all my anger out.

I hear the door open but continue punching.

"What are you doing?" Alessandra asks.

"What does it look like," I say, taking a glance at her. She scoffs and I can sense she rolled her eyes.

"Don't roll your eyes at me." I say blankly. She sighs. She's not her normal sassy self, usually, she would talk back.

I stop and look at her. She was daydreaming. "Are you ok?"

She shakes her head and looks at me with widened eyes. "I'm..fine." She answers quietly.

"Why were your hitting the punching bag so hard?" She really is so innocent.

"I'm angry."

"Can I know why?"

"Do you really want to know, it involves the mafia." She nods.

"I mean they endangered my life." She has a point there.

"Well, that night where you were almost taken, the person behind it was Alexander Santos." She freezes in her place.

"Do you know him?" I ask.

Her face becomes red and her eyes fill with tears.

"That bastard ruined my life! He took away my most prized possession." She yelled in anger. I'm taken back by her response. She takes a breath and her face softens.

"Wasn't he in jail?"

"He was but he escaped, he was lying low until now. He's the leader of the Spanish Mafia." She gasps.

"You've got to be kidding, Vanessa's cousin, god can my life get any worse!" She crosses her arms and mutters something in a different language.

I wonder what she meant by he ruined her life?

She turns around and starts heading towards the door. "Thanks for telling me." and with that she leaves, closing the door behind her.

Well.

I resume punching until my knuckles start hurting. I walk out the gym and go upstairs to my room, which is beside of Alessandra's. I reach my door and go to open it when I hear..singing?

I follow the voice to Alessandra's room. Her door was cracked and I peek through it. I find her singing beautifully.

"Is it love when so easily said goodbye?

Is it love when we've given up before we tried?

Is it love when you stole my peace of mind?

Is it love when you cry, and cry and cry?

So when you walk out that door, Don't you come back no more

My heart has had enough of the give and take,
And as much as I want you to stay

You're a dangerous love, And baby, you're no good for me, darling
'
Cause if you're gonna love me and leave me hanging here

Then I'd rather you leave me lonely
Even though it hurts

You're a dangerous love"

I can hear the pain and so much emotion in her voice. It kind of pains me to see her like this. She's had nightmares every night and I can hear her cry, begging for the nightmares to stop. What are triggering them?

I step back and go to my room. I shower and change into something casual. I go downstairs, grab my keys off the table and go out the door. I get in my car and speed out the driveway.

I pull up the driveway of my parent's house and  go inside. I look around and find who I'm looking for.

"Mom, " she turns around and smiles.

"Luca, baby what are you doing here?" She hugs me and says.

I groan. "Mom, I'm not a baby!" she laughs.

"I know but you're the only child I have, therefore that makes you my baby." I shake my head, I can't win with this woman.

"Now tell me why you're here."

"I can't come to visit my parents once in a while?" I ask playfully. She shakes her head.

"Luca, tell me has something happened between you and Alessandra?"

I don't know how to answer that.

"Uh. Well, you could say that she was almost kidnapped and found out about the mafia, she's been acting weird ever since and today when I told her who was behind the attack she freaked out and said some things." I said quickly. She looks at me with widened eyes.

"Luca, have you ever thought about maybe getting to know her, it's a random question but, have you?"

"Uh no." And I don't plan to. She sighs.

"Just know that she's been through a lot, it's not my place to tell you why but just go easy on her." I nod.

"I'm gonna go talk to Dad, " She nods and opens her mouth to say something but I cut her off.

"And yes mom, I'll be here later for my birthday dinner." she laughs.

"Ok, and bring everyone."

I walk into my father's office and tell him what's happened lately.

Ok people, here's another chapter for you. Hope you liked it and if you did vote on it. This chapter, in my opinion, was a bit all over the place. For some reason, I can't form sentences that make sense so forgive me. Jennifer❤️💛2/12/19
