Sold to the mafia boss

Logan’s P. O. V.

I stormed out angrily, lighting a cigarette as soon as I stepped into my room. I puffed out air, just in time for Dani to step out from the dark corners of the room.

” How is she? ” He asks, causing me to scoff in irritation. He really cares about her, doesn’t he?

Turning around furiously, I said ” you care about Layla so much, huh? what else? You wanna see her? ”

Dani’s face remains unmoved. That bastard, always keeping a permanent posture, it’s nearly impossible to know when he’s upset or happy. I on the other hand was the complete opposite.

” I’m just worried about her, Logan ” he replied.

” Yes, that you are! ” I shut back irritatedly, taking another drag of the cigarette.

Silence broke in and I turned away from him, puffing the air out of the cigarette.

” I’m sorry, Logan.” Dani said gently.

I closed my eyes as his words seemed to hurt my ears. He didn’t have anything to be sorry about. He was right to care about Layla. It was something I wasn’t doing and he was doing it better. I knew Dani would never betray me. He should understand that what was mine was mine and that I wasn’t sharing it with anybody.

Turning around, I dumped the cigarette on the closest ashtray before looking up at his face again.

“Thank you Dani. I do know in fact that Layla isn’t in the best conditions. I got carried away by her escape attempts to actually see how much pain she was in. I will look into matters later ” I said gently to him now.

” Are we heading out soon? ” He asked.

” Yes ” I replied quickly.

” I was thinking. . . . Maybe it would be a good idea to have Antoniette back at the house as we leave. . . . ”

His statement died on the way but I knew exactly what he was saying. Layla wasn’t in the best condition and thus would need help. Antoniette was needed. But I didn’t wanna give her that. Not now.

” Antoniette is in a far place as we speak right now, Dani. She cannot be here as she’s attending to matters far more important ”

Dani hesitates before nodding in understanding.

Astrid arrived early in the evening. As we walked out of the house and headed towards the meeting house, I began to consider Dani’s suggestion to bring Antoniette back to the house. Layla needed all the help she could get right now.

I stopped at the chair I always sat at, at the very end of the long table. I felt my attention divided. Here was Astrid whom I’ve anticipated his arrival for many hours with a valid information that could contribute to my course and yet I can’t seem to get my mind off Layla.

I’d wanted to spend every last minute with her on that bed. But she didn’t want me. She’d asked me to leave without saying it. Calling me a monster was a loud enough sign that she despised seeing me.

Blinking hard in an attempt to clear my head of her thoughts and face, I looked straight ahead to Astrid who stood at the door, a few of his men slowly walking in.

” He was only able to say a few things, boss ” Astrid spoke after Dani settled down on the seat close to me.

” Let’s hope that little information would be all that I need “I said.

Astrid nods and continued ” I’m sure it is, boss. He wouldn’t say it at first but he did anyway. He just gave me an address to a house without a specified location ”

I turned to look at Dani who shifted knowingly in his seat.

” I’ll have it checked out and get the necessary information ” Dani said to him.

I rose to my feet and said ” well then, I say we’re done here ”

” Boss ” Astrid stops me before I could take the step. I stopped to give him a questioning brow.

” The man said something, ” he continued ” he said something about Jamie not killing your uncle ”

A smile tucked at the side of my lips. Slowly, I stepped towards Astrid and looked into his face.

” Even you would say anything in that position, Astrid. You would know all he said is a lie, Astrid, when the time comes, ” I whispered like it was some secret ” Jamie Templeman is as guilty of my uncle’s murder as he’ll ever be. Common men like his dog would say anything at the brim of death to save themselves. ” I stepped away and towards the exit before adding ” get to work Dani, find our man and get ready to go shed some blood”

I left the silence behind and stepped out into the cold night. It was always cold in this god-damned city. And as I made it up towards my room, I couldn’t help wonder how Layla was faring at this cold hour. As I shut my doors close behind me, I stood for a while, restrain myself from pushing them back open and jumping into her room.

I tugged at the new yellow tie, tossing it on the floor.

Too shouty.

I slid a green one from the rack, wrapping it over my neck before thinking better of it.

I plucked out a silky black velvet one and pressed it against my white shirt.

Perfect. I would storm out tomorrow and get this bullshit over with.

My sexual frustration was getting the best of me. I could barely walk straight without thinking of dipping my cock into the nearest open mouth in my vicinity. It’d been too many weeks since the last time I sank my hard-on in a woman’s head, and the last encounter with the fairer sex was lackluster, to say the least.

I tried all my possible best to not step out of my room because if I did, I didn’t trust myself to stop when she begs me to this time.
