Chapter 33 Betrayal

She couldn't sleep.
Three hours passed as she stared at night sky. The stars looked so bewitching to watch, the moon was serene. The cold wind didn't bothered her any more. She sighed for fifth time. Her restless mind making her think worse. She was deel engrossed in her thoughts when her ears twitched as she heard roaring of vehicles. Since the mansion located on outskirts of city, she somehow knew who these vehicles belonged to.
Her hopeful eyes looked at large gates as three black looking cars entered the gates.
She was about to run for door when the phone in her hand blinked, with confused eyes she opened it.
Her eyes widened as she read the text over and over again.
Gulping the lump of saliva, she immediately hid the phone under the bed before calming her breath.
Her body reacted on her own as she immediately ran outside the room. Barefooted, she descended down the stairs careful enough not to trip. It almost felt like she was waiting for this moment.
Sadie was standing on large garden besides large water fountain when a car parked, her small and petite frame stood next to Alfred.
Silvio's heart squeezed at the sight, his longing for her sharp and all he wanted to do was scoop her in his arms at that instant. But as he got up, the first thing he do was helping Dante. The wound where the bullet had embedded was deep and he was weak from all the blood loss.
Sadie couldn't process how she should react. She felt bad for Dante but almost as relieved to see Silvio unscathed despite few blood stains over his white shirt. Her eyes didn't noticed Micah and Miranda getting out of another car. Miranda limped towards duo as Sadie noticed gun wound on side of her thigh.
Immediately she rushed towards Miranda as former gave a polite smile.
"Well, look who's back." Sadie flinched as she analyse the wound. It looked deep and nasty. Silvio's eyes followed her movements. Two guards helped him carrying Dante inside the mansion, as rest followed them.
"You can rest, sweetheart. We'll be okay." Miranda tried to assure Sadie as later shook her head.
"You guys are hurt. I-I can help atleast."
Miranda looked closely at woman. Her eyes looked worried, her actions were chastised. She was freaking from inside but she still held her posture.
Dante was lead to another room in infimary. Sadie was almost shocked to see mink version of hospital in the mansion. She never realised how large this whole damn house was.
Silvio was with Dante.
Miranda was lead to closed room. A nurse tended to her wound and Sadie instructed her. She was a doctor afterall. No words were exchanged between them but a comfortable silence was lingering. Sadie couldn't hell but wonder how severe was Dante's injury. His wound looked deep and lots of blood seemed to lost. The fact that he was unconscious was also worsening her assumptions.
Sadie carefully dressed Miranda's wound. She was relieved to see that bullet hadn't penetrated but scratched along her thigh. The wound looked painful but wasn't severe. Maybe Miranda would have to say bye-bye to bikinis.
Sadie almost laughed at the thought when a maid came in.
Both women looked towards her.
"Master Salvatore is calling for you." Sadie a heart skipped a beat. She suddenly started feeling nervous.
"Go now. The lion is getting berserk." Miranda laughed. Though Sadie wanted to saw him for herself but she didn't knew what would she do.
"Why haven't you had the physician look at your wounds yet?" Micah asked.
"Fuck a physician," Silvio said dismissively.
Micah rolled his eyes at Silvio's stubbornness.
"Perhaps your doctor might be able to help with it." Micah smirked.
Silvio looked at him curiously.
"Lora," he called.
"Yes, Master Salvatore." Lora said bowing her head slightly.
"Bring me Sadie." Silvio said ignoring teasing whistles of Micah.
"Yes, Master." Lora said walking towards the infimary.
"And you, look after Dante." Silvio said dismissively. Micah looked displeased.
"He's out of danger. Probably would be walking-"
"Look after him." Silvio repeated. Micah looked at him for a second amd sighed.
"Sí." He grumbled before walking out of Silvio's room.
She tensed as she walked towards her destination. Her heart consecutively drumming in her rib-cage, the alternate nervousness and anxious thoughts gripped her. She remembered the text she recieved few hours ago as she contemplated over her choices.
With a deep sigh, she opened the doors of his room. Her senses were immediately engulfed by rich aroma of Silvio's sandalwood scent. She couldn't help but sniff the serene odour. Her mind paralysed for a moment as she heard water running in bathroom. She didn't had to look to know Silvio was in there.
Closing the door behind her, she walked towards the bathroom and knocked.
"Come in." His gruff, raw voice startled her to core. With trembling legs she stepped inside. Steam of water engulfed her as she tried to look through heavy fog. In middle of the luxurious bathroom, Silvio sat deep in marbled-bathtub, his eyes closed, she suddenly wished to see his icy pools. His head rested against the floor as his arms spreaded along the edges. His torso exposed for her eyes to ogle. She could saw few freshly red cut marks on his chest.
"Come here." Silvio groaned without looking at her. She jumped for a second as she licked her dry lips. She suddenly felt intimidated by him. She looked at him and couldn't find the words to speak so she merely nodded.
Just as she was few feet away from him, she stopped before looking down at her clothes, not knowing what she should do next.
"You can leave it on if you prefer..." Silvio said as if reading her mind.
"Or take it off..." Sadie gulped as Silvio's eyes snapped towards her. She forgot how to breathe as she sensed the heaviness of his gaze.
Sadie took a breath as she walked to the edge of the tub. She dipped her toes in, feeling the warm water before she sat down and slowly slipped her body into the water.
She glanced at Silvio, who waited for her like a revenous beast waiting to devour it's prey. She floated over to him and looked at his chest that was decorated in shades of red and blue.
"Y-you're hurt..." She said tensely.
"Does it matter?" He said keeping his eyes on her.
Silvio smirked amused.
With a shaky breath, she placed her hands on his chest and shuttered at the contact. Her fingers roamed down his chest, feeling scar tissue that she couldn't decipher which were new and old.
But as she felt his hands round her waist, she began to realise he may not have been interested in her help at all.
Sadie tried to concentrate on his wounds, ignoring his roaming hands as she felt his fingers tilting up her chin. She locked her eyes with him, and saw his mouth split up in a grin.
And you're too reckless to be a mafia leader," she said before she could stop herself. She fully expected him to pin her to the nearest wall but instead she heard him laughing.
"I knew you were worried about me." He chuckled.
He grabbed her hips and pulled her towards him until her body flushed against his. Her soaking wet dress, clung indecently to her naked form. His hands roamed the curve of her backside, exploring every hill and valley of her body.
"You know what I love about you, Sadie...." He said possessively squeezing her hips. "You're a terrible liar."
Silvio latched his lips onto her neck, sucking hard. Her parted her legs to straddle his thigh as he moved her hips in a grinding motion, feeling her core against his naked thigh.
"I like submissive kind of woman....and I'll make sure to bend you to my rules." He said kissing her neck.
Sadie instinctively closed her eyes, her body heat skyrocketing from Silvio's provocative touch. She could never get used to his insane touch, and the feeling she thought she would forget, slowly emerges.
"I'll be long gone before you could get a chance to tame me, Silvio..."
Silvio genuinely laughed against her neck as he slipped his hand between the slit of her dress and palmed her entire core causing her to gasp out loud.
"Now, you're just playing with me, cara...Seems like you're enjoying this little game." Silvio mused as he rotated his palm in rough circles.
"You might be enjoying it more than me, Silvio." She said lowly.
Silvio pushed his face into her damp bosom, still blocked by her white satin night gown. He could see outline of her nipples through the linen and eagerly sucked it into his mouth.
The expressions on Sadie's face morph from ñervousness to desperate want as she anxiously bit her lower lip.
She find herself relaxing as she allowed him to access without retaliation. Silvio peeled the strap of her dress down, exposing her shoulders before his lips caressed the curves.
She wrapped her arms around his neck as she immediately pushed her lips against his in a desperate kiss. Silvio stilled for a moment but relentlessly took control.
She could feel an icy chill on her lips when their lips parted.
Silvio went to speak when Sadie looked anxiously at him. Her blinked twice as he gave her a confused look.
"What ha-"
"I'm sorry." She whispered as she immediately plunged the needle into his neck before his eyes rolled back and his body went limp.
****
"WHERE IS SHE?!" Silvio snarled as he stormed into the corridor completely naked.
"Silvio, put some clothes on." Micah muttered as he threw pair of pants at him. "She's gone."
"How? How the fuck did she get away?" Silvio said stuffing his legs into the pants. "I think I had subdued her."
"Seems you weren't as affective as you should be." Dante muttered as he leaned back against the wall of corridor. "I told you she's unpredictable."
"I'll show her fucking unpredictable." Silvio said storming down the hallway. A wave of anger storming behind him.
Miranda frantically ran outside just in time to catch Silvio opening his car.
"Are you sure you don't want me to come?" Micah asked handing Silvio his gun.
"No..she's my prey." Silvio said looking hardly at Dante.
"Silvio! Please!" Miranda said trying to block him.
"Fucking hell.." Silvio rolled his eyes.
"It's just a one girl. She's not important enough to have your attention." She pleaded.
"You forget yourself, Miranda. I say what's important and what's not." Miranda looked at him hurt in her eyes before Dante grabbed her arm and pulled her to the side.
"She'll regret running away." Silvio said before starting the ignition and drove away. His eyes flickered with darkness and his fists clenched don't steering wheel.
