My Mafia Man // book 2

"My dearest Ella"

I sat in the guest room , furious . He's not making my child into a killer or a Mafia Boss .

The door slowly creeked open . Derek stepped in . He had rope, handcuffs and duct tape in his hand . "What's that for" I asked him curiously. "Some mission I had to go on" he smiled as he sat beside me .

"What's up?" I asked him . "Nothing" he shrugged . Why was he just sitting beside me ? .

"Here , I have this for you" Derek mumbled as he pulled out a piece of paper . My eyes widened as I read it .

"Dearest Ella .
Did you like what I did ? Leading you to your father , making you kill him for your own security. I have to admit , I almost got caught , but in the end I succeeded.

It wasn't the easiest thing to do . Finding information on him . But I eventually got it in the end . But guess what love , I'm not dead . I love you my dear , and we will be together forever . I will make you carry my child so that you and I , are forever connected .

Have you figured out who I am yet ? It should be easy at this point.

I had to stop and think for a second but I couldn't figure it out .

I know you're very confused my darling , but I'll love you better than Ashton ever could. You deserve someone better than him .

Who knew I'd betray him ? Me . Maybe you , you were always skeptical. You watch and observe and it's the sexiest thing ever .

Still haven't figured out who I am .

I'm sitting beside you .

My heart stopped as I read that line . No no no.

I went to scream but Derek slapped duct tape across my mouth . He jumped ontop of me and forcefully handcuffed my hands . I tried to fight him off but he was too strong . Tears streamed down my face as I tried to yell .

"My dearest Ella , don't try to yell , no one is here . Ashton is out with kids . Do you like how I was the spark to the fight ? . Me suggesting Ashton to tell you about training Grayson . Good idea" he laughed creepily as he stroked my cheek . I pulled away from his touch.

"Now my dear , let's go" Derek grumbled as he smiled . He grabbed me and threw me over his shoulder . I squirmed in his grip but it was no use . My tears dropped to the floor as the blood flowed to my head. . How did I let this happen . How did I not see this coming .

He threw me into his car . He grabbed a cloth and damped it with some liquid . I tried to yell and kick and move but nothing was working . Fuck sake .

He held the cloth to my nose and mouth and within seconds , I had blacked out .

He threw us completely off of his tracks . That's when it all clicked . He was able to get past the guards cause he's Ashton's right hand man . But that means he's been watching me before I was even at Ashton's house ?. That makes no sense .

My father never admitted to writing those letters . To be completely honest , it seemed like he was clueless .

——————————

I slowly opened my eyes . I tried to rub my eyes but I realized my hands were chained .

I looked up . I was in a damp dark basement chained to the wall . That's when I seen Grayson . He was cuddled up in a corner , freezing cold and shivering .

He didn't look hurt but I couldn't really tell . My heart stopped as watched Grayson whimpering in the corner . This is my fault .

"Gray.....Grayson" I spoke, my voice shaky . Grayson didn't turn around . "Grayson?" I called out to him . "Shh" Grayson whimpered in his corner . "Bubba , come here" I whispered . "He said if I turn around , I'll get punished , I don't want to be punished" Grayson cried . My eyes watered as my child helplessly lay in the corner .

I heard footsteps coming from upstairs . Graysons whimpering got louder as the footsteps came towards the door.

"Graysonnn" Derek called out creepily . "Look who I've brought" Derek yelled from upstairs . Suddenly something came crashing down the stairs. I jolted up .

It was Ashton . He groaned as he flipped over to his back . I was still exhausted. "Oh Ella , my dear , you're awake" Derek smiled sinisterly.

"Don't call her that" Ashton growled furiously at Derek . "You stupid fuck" Derek laughed as he viscously kicked Ashton in the stomach .

I pulled at my chains . "Ah ah Ella , you'll watch or else your son gets punished" Derek warned me as he turned to Grayson . "Don't fucking touch him!" I shrieked at Derek .

"No!" Ashton yelled .

"He's the connection between you two . He's the reason , you went back to Ashton " Derek hissed at me .

"As long as Grayson is alive , that connection is still there . So maybe we need to kill the connection" Derek hinted . "No no!" I yelled . He started walking towards Grayson. "please , PLEASE" I begged hopelessly as I cried . "ILL DO ANYTHING" I screamed. Derek stopped walking towards Grayson .

"Anything?" Derek raised an eyebrow. "Anything" I nodded as the tears rolled down my cheeks . "Kill Ashton" Derek smiled .
