Chapter 160
Massimo
“What happened Damon? The whole story.” “We were followed Massimo, I told the guys we needed to take the guy alive to get some answers out of him. We tricked him in driving into a dead end only me and the other guys drove past then circled back when they saw he followed me into the street. We got him pinned between the cars. Apparently, the Ricci’s offered the guys 1 million for every body they bring them of us and 5 million for Dani.” “Fuck” “Yes Massimo fuck” “He was one of their drug runners not even a lieutenant just someone off the street, and you and me both know how many people there is out there that would do anything for that kind of money.” “Yes, but how did it come to Dani shooting the guy?” “For the lasts few weeks Paul and Liam are taking her to the gun range and teaching her self-defence classes. When I got everything out of the guy and getting ready to shoot him, she took the gun from me and said she needs to do it.” “That’s a good thing isn’t it? Now you know she can use a fire arm when she needs to?” “Yes, Massimo but she had no reaction afterwards, she put the safety on, gave me the gun and walked away and every time I ask her if she’s okay she tells me not to worry about her, she knows it was him or her. That worries me she didn’t even shake afterwards it was like there were no emotions. What if everything comes flooding back.” “Damon then all of us will be there for her but you need to understand what she went through and just maybe that influenced her in a way that none of us understands.” “I know Massimo, I’m just worried about her and now I’m more worried about her.” “Well, that’s the main reason I’ve send them on a spa day we need to sort this Ricci shit out. We need to get rid of them as soon as possible and I need to get the other families involved in doing that.” “Well, I brought the plans of their estate, that will help.” We called all the men to my study. Damon opened the plans on my boardroom table yes for some reason, I have a boardroom table here as well. Ghost pointed out where all the cameras where, Damon pointed out the underground tunnels we should block off and where their dungeon is. Although its accessible from the house through the tunnels. We could make entry through the dungeon. It’s far enough that no one will hear us but the tunnels that leads to other get away points needs to be booby trapped. Luca suggested we put bombs on the doors. We came up with an easy enough plan to execute, we just needed more men and all the Ricci’s at home at the same time. That’s going to be the most difficult part of the plan. The men went back to there part of the house leaving me and Damon alone. “You feeling better now that we have a plan, Damon?” “Yes, Massimo but we need to execute it as soon as possible, you need to phone the other families and get more men.” “I will Damon, believe me I want them gone as well, I promised Rachel last night it will end soon.” “Then I think it’s a good idea to contact them all today Massimo.” “I will Damon, give me an hour.” “Okay Massimo, I’ll go and find something to eat so long.”
I e-mailed the Ramano, Costa and Edcardo families, stating: Our previous talked about operation is taking place as soon as possible I will need assistance from everyone of you at least 5 men each. Your help would also be appreciated on any information that can be used before the operation commence. I press send and immediately Ramano came back to me. ‘Just give us a date and time and we will be there.’ Then I received the same e-mail from Costa. I was just waiting for the Edcardo family to get back to me. While I waited, I went looking for Damon to tell him our other news.
Rachel
It was so nice of Massimo to organise a spa day for me and Dani, I’ll probably need to tell her we are getting married tomorrow night. We just got undress for our massages when, Dani asked me “Have you ever killed a man, Rachel?” I was shocked where did that question came from, but if I think about it I was the cause of at least 2 peoples death. “No Dani, I was the cause of their death but I haven’t killed them myself, why do you ask? The lady that did the massage came out, “Can I take you ladies through?” “Could I perhaps ask you if we could eat first.” “Yes, off course.” They took us to our table and I asked Dani, “What happened “ “I killed a man and I think there’s something wrong with me because it doesn’t bother me at all.” “Why did you kill him?” “He was following us and told Damon and the men he was getting paid 5 million to bring me to the Ricci’s. When Damon wanted to pull the trigger, I told him I wanted to do it.” She was taking a bite of her salad and I just kept quiet giving her time to tell me everything. “I’m taking self-defence classes with Paul and Liam and they also take me to the shooting range. I want to kill the fucker that drugged and kidnapped us, so I’m putting my everything into the classes, I’m never going to be helpless again. So, when Damon wanted to do it, I felt I needed to do it to prepare me for when they catch Lorenzo. To make sure I’ll be able to pull the trigger.” She kept quiet again, I gave her time. “Then I did and I felt nothing, now Damon is worried about me that I’m running on adrenaline but I’m not. I just don’t feel anything. I know it was him or me. What do you think?” “Well Dani, you are right its them or us and we should always fight to the end to prevent it from being us. If you not feeling anything, maybe you’re in shock and don’t know it or maybe with the kidnapping it just changed you a bit and that’s fine as well, I’m sure you won’t go out and just kill anyone it’s a case of survival and everyone reacts differently. As long as you talk to Damon or me when you feel it’s getting to you, if it’s not then don’t worry about it. He wanted to hurt you; you have nothing to feel guilty about.” “Thank you, Rachel, Damon made me feel like I’m crazy for not reacting a specific way.” “It’s just because he cares for you and worries about you Dani, that’s the only reason.” “I know he cares for me Rachel; the problem is I think I love him”
