Sparkle of life ( Mafia Love story #1 ) by KATHLEEN HAYAT (best free ebook reader .txt) 📖

Cane groggily opened his eyes slowly adjusting to surrounding and groaned out in pain when he felt a sharp pain seeping out his leg. Cursing slowly his eyes landed on the large figure sitting in the shadows that is when he felt that he was tied on the chair. He tried to struggle but no use.

His eyes landed on Jack, Lucas and Issac standing against the wall. He looked at the room more like the cell they are in and immediately observed the familiar surroundings. This was their torture cell in the forest side.

Cane chuckled sinister. "Now you're going to kill me!" He said looking straight at Alex who emerged out of the shadows and was now standing in front of Cane.

"You know exactly what I do with the traitors!" Alex spoke calmly like an ice.

"If loving her made me a traitor then yes I am a traitor." Cane spoke venomously. Alex's fists were clenched in anger but he controlled himself. "She is mine and you knew it from the start." Alex spat angrily.

Jack and Lucas were stunned on this new-found information but Issac on the other hand was emotionless.

Wheels started turning in Cane's head, and he knew now what to do exactly. This will be more fun than the failed plan. Smirking internally Cane started throwing his cards cautiously taking the situation in his favor. He can take some punches if it results in Alex's misery. With evil thoughts he started.

"She will never be yours because she loves me, if you wouldn't have threatened to kill me she would've never married you." Cane spoke looking dead in Alex's eyes he continued. "She did this to save me."

Alex knew Cane was saying all this to get a reaction out of him, so he stayed emotionless. "I don't care about the reasons Cane. She is mine now. That too Lawfully!" Alex spoke calmly which was pretty difficult to do.

"Her heart belongs to me and her body too after yesterday." Cane spoke smugly.

Alex felt an excruciating rage like never before. He punched Cane so hard that he along with his chair fell on the floor with a loud bang. "YOU BASTARD!" Alex growled.

Cane spit out some blood and laughed humorously. "What? Angry that I got to taste her first! Damn I loved her rosy scent."

That did it. Alex was seeing red.

Rosy scent!

Fuming he punched Cane again with a loud growl. New bruises forming on his beaten face. Issac came forward trying to stop Alex from killing Cane. "Boss control yourself."

"FUCK!" Alex growled and moved back the thoughts running in his mind was gnawing at his beast to kill someone.

Cane knows exactly where this was going, so he threw his last card. "K-Kill me all you w-want. Memories o-of her s-soft body u-underneath m-mine is enough f-for me."

Alex growled inhumanly and lurched on Cane and started beating him non-stop. Lucas came and tried to stop Alex along with the help of Issac, but he was behaving like a deranged man.

Alex stopped his beating and pulled Cane's collar to face him. "I'LL MAKE YOU BOTH PAY." He spat venomously.

Cane smiled and whispered slowly so only Alex can hear. "She t-touched m-me so w-well. H-her s-soft lips s-stroking m-my di-" A hard punch had him knocked out.

Alex was panting hard, he stared at the unconscious man laying at floor barely any of his features were recognizable.

Cane's words broke something in him. Something he never knew was there. He felt pain gnawing at his heart.

She broke his heart which just recently learned how to beat for her.

Alizey squinted her eyes when a sharp pain racked her brain. Holding her head tightly she tried to adjust her eyes to the surroundings. Her throat felt parched, slowly she woke up completely and was looking at her lap. Her head was dizzy.

It took her few moments to realize that she was in the same house where Alex had brought her when she tried to escape from the window.

She was laying on the couch in the hall and by the deadly silence surrounding her she knows she's alone. She heaved a sigh when she realized she's still wearing the that red dress. And with that her eyes started to well up with tears by all the scenarios, happened in just 24 hours.

***

Past.

Alizey was standing in the middle of the office where Mike was sitting on the front chair and Cane was simply leaning on the table arms crossed in front of his chest both men staring her down. "All I want from you is a little cooperation. You my love just have to say I do three times and done. No harm will come to anyone." Cane spoke smoothly as if marriage is no big deal for him.

"Why are you doing this?" She spoke bravely. Cane smirked amused and took slow steps towards her. "Now that's a good question love." His fingers caressed her cheek to which she took two steps back glaring at him. He chuckled slightly and continued. "I want to kill Alex that's why I'm doing this."

She looked at him bewildered. Her eyes were widened when she remembered all the times she saw Alex and Cane together it was like Alex trusted him like a brother. If she wasn't wrong she even felt that Alex cared for him and here his best friend wants to kill him.

Unknowingly she felt anger towards Cane. How could he? But now isn't the best time for her to let her tongue slip. "Why you want to kill him?"

Cane looked dead serious and spoke. "Because the title of the mafia king belongs to me but that good for nothing Duke gave it to Alexander, we both were equal candidates for that power but that old brat gave everything to Alexander and made me his first in command like I'm a fucking slave but now I want to take back what's mine and if that means I've to kill Alexander I'll gladly do it." Cane smiled evilly at her, his green eyes full of mischief.

"You must be thinking where you fit in all this but love you are a main thing now. Let me explain it to you. Before you, Alexander didn't have a single weakness but now he's intrigued by you. He's attracted to you, he's showing signs of weakness because he wants you and if I know any better I'd say he started loving you." Cane said matter of factly.

"I am not a thing! This is all ridiculous! He doesn't love me!" She yelled almost furious. He's talking about her like she's a toy and is making assumptions.

Cane chuckled at her angry face and continued.

"Tell me how many times he tried to force himself on you?" She paled instantly at his words. Her mind going back to the times when he touched her forcefully. Cane observed her expressions and continued.

"But he stopped, didn't he?" Cane asked and at that moment Alizey realized he's saying the truth. Alexander did stop when they were in shower but when he tried to force himself on her in his room, he didn't stop it was her who went unconscious the mere thought of that night scared her.

"Let me fuck her once!" A gruff voice spoke startling Alizey as she stared at Mike who was eyeing her like a piece of meat. Gulping slowly her eyes met with green ones which were not a bit bothered about what Mike said.

"I'm asking you last time Alizey. Will you marry me willingly. YES or NO?" Cane asked seriously completely ignoring Mike who grumbled under his breath.

"NO!" She fumed in complete rage. Just for power he wants to destroy her life. Did he think of marriage as a game.

In seconds Cane was on her, his one hand yanking her hair through her hijab while his other hand hold her jaw in a firm grip. "Enough of being a good guy now you'll see the real me!" With that said he yanked her through her hair towards the office desk and made her see the laptop on which live footage was playing and it was of none other than her home.

With wide eyes she stared at her mother through the screen who placed the food on the dining table and called for her father and Ali to join the table. She can also hear their voices. Tears started to blur her vision. That was not all. Mike clicked on the button and three another screens popped up but this time it was her friends Anna, Malik and Sarah in their houses. New set of tears flowed her eyes, seeing her friends after so many days.

Mike was the one who started first. "There is one more friend of yours what was his name? Yeah, Amir!. We are unable to find him yet but don't worry we'll find him soon." He told her and continued.

"This." He said pointing at Anna on the screen. "Is a fine piece. If you'll disobey us I'll kidnap her and will spend night with her then she'll be tossed around my men until they are satisfied and lastly I'll sell her as a whore in one of my auctions."

Alizey stared at the screen with tears streaming down her face. She didn't want to look at this monster of a man who's saying and promising such vulgar things. He's of her father's age! And yet he has no shame.

"This one is strong we can simply sell his organs. We can get a good price on that!" Mike said pointing towards Malik.

"And this, well she looks holy like you. I'll keep her as my personal mistress." Mike mused pointing at Sarah.

Alizey screamed at top of her lungs and lunged at Mike with all her force. She was so fast that Cane lost his balance and stumbled back as Alizey scratched at Mike's face. She slapped him not once, twice and thrice she was continuously hitting him while screaming her lungs out.

Cane abruptly yanked her back from Mike whose face was bleeding. Cane secured her hands behind her back and held her firmly. Her tears weren't stopping, she felt nauseous at his words. She wants to kill Mike at that moment. Her breathing was hard and her hijab was disheveled.

"YOU BITCH!"

Slap.
