Mafia Vengeance 2

3 year later.

Life.

Such a simple word yet held the power to ruin the happiest of the souls. Life was never easy for her and just when she thought everything was going fine and now there would be just happiness.

Fate struck her with vicious force, snatching away her life, her happiness and even her soul out of her system. Attacking at the most sensitive and innocent spot of her being.

Giving so much pain and agony that times come and the things become unbearable to the lines of patience and then there's just pain, agony and sorrow residing so deep inside you that you can't even think of anything other than pain in all forms and ways.

Chloe was happy three years ago. She got everything in life. A loving husband. Healthy beautiful kids, a lovely family but just in a flash everything was snatched away from her right in front of her eyes. Even recalling that incident caused her heart to constrict painfully and goosebumps to appear all over her form.

She didn't just lose her life. She lost her baby boy.

Her baby Lucas.

His enemies took him away right in front of her eyes and she couldn't do anything about it.

The incident of that traumatizing night still haunts her every single night and every single second.

Her little baby was taken away from her and she was unable to save him.

Her heart ached so painfully that sometimes breathing felt like dying but only one thing kept her going. Her son Chase.

Most of the night she would just lay cold in her bed thinking why fate was being cruel to her as sleep would not come to her with ease.

It was 4 am.

Getting up from the bed she tied the knot of her nightgown and walked towards the room right beside her.

Her baby's room. Opening the door she finds her little happiness sleeping on the baby bed peacefully.

Chase was three and half years old. Lucas would be the same age now. Everytime she looked at Chase, the mirror image of Lucas pained her heart.

The fact that she didn't know if her baby was even alive or not was what drove her crazy each and every second.

The thoughts that haunts her were traumatizing; she wished for no mother to go through this pain and sorrow in their life, not even knowing if their baby was breathing or buried twelve feet under the ground.

Walking inside she sat beside him on the bed and caressed his dark black hair, same as Andrew's.

A sharp pain zipped through her heart but she steeled her emotions. She wasn't going to think about that man. Not now. Not ever.

Just because of him she has lost her one son and before she could lose the other one.

She escaped!

Yes! Chloe ran away from her own house three years ago. Because of Andrew she has lost her one child and in no way she wanted to lose the other one. So Chloe took Chase and ran away without a single trace of her whereabouts behind.

Before taking this big step she had confronted him to leave the mafia. She even begged him but the man was adamant to get his son back from the enemies. And this almost cost them Chase as well.

Chloe tried her best but the man was perhaps in love with his mafia more than her. So she decided to leave and take away her son from this life.

She didn't want her baby to grow up and become a mafia boss and hold the legacy of his father as a criminal. So Chloe ran away with Chase.

She knew he would come after her so taking help of any known person was stupidity and she knows her husband far better than anyone could.

Chloe didn't stay in any city or different country. Instead she found her peaceful future in a small village in between the mountains.

She was walking alone on the road when a bus of high school students was passing. She asked for the ride and they helped. The kids were going to Savoc, a village situated in the middle of mountains. A beautiful place of nature and peace. They were going there to explore nature for their science project which was of great marks.

Once there the people of Savoc treated them with so much kindness that she knew this was the safest place for them.

For Chase.

From then onwards she was staying here. She works as a teacher here in a small school and other than that she also sells bakery products which she bake by her own self and her handmade cakes were in great demand at this village.

There was an elder man who was considered as the judge or the head of this village. That old man has given her a beautiful cottage to live in on a small rent.

Chase would have a safe and happy life here. Away from all those killing and blood.

Giving a soft peck on Chase's cheek she lay beside him on the bed as her mind went back to the last time she talked to her husband, Andrew.

"Please Andrew, leave your mafia. It has already taken our one son. I don't want to lose you or Chase..." Chloe cried out as tears poured out of her eyes.

"They took my son away. They think they could play me. I will fucking kill them in so painful ways that their souls would tremble in pain." He growled out inhumanly while pacing the room like a wild animal.

Chloe let out a low sob. "I told you before that you should leave this mafia, but you didn't and now look at what it cost us. Our Lucas!" She screeched while grabbing his collar and throwing small punches at his chest which he let her.

"Just stop Andrew! I can't take this anymore... Choose!" She breathed heavily while gazing him in the eyes.

"It's either us or your mafia?" She asked the question which he never answered.

But his silence said it all.

And that broke her heart into gazillions of pieces.

He broke her that day!
