Chapter 255
Massimo
The next morning, we struggled to get up as the vino was in full swing last night the only one that was not hangover was Bella. It was clear we all needed to sleep on the plane if we are going to be able to be at our best when we land in New York. We said good bye to Anton and Candice and Bella even let a tear slipped that meant she liked them and that made me very happy I don’t have a lot of friends in this world but Anton and Damon are the 2 best friends I have and both was because of my parent, if my parents where not friends with Anton’s parents we would never met and then there was Damon that my dad took of the street and gave him a job and a place to stay until I stole him from my dad. Thinking of Damon I should remember to call him when we are in the air. We all got in the SUV’s and where of to the airport in Florence it was a few hours drive to Florence but at least the plane will wait for us as it is my own plane. When we arrived at the private airport there where 4 black SUV’s standing next to my plane. “Boss, are we expecting anyone?” “No Luca.” “Marco stay in the car with Rachel, Rachel lay low on the seat.” “What about you Massimo?” “I’ll be okay Bella don’t worry about me.” As I got out of the car the only thing, I could think about was “What the fuck now?” Enzo, Davide and Aldo came walking next to me and Luca in front of me when the door opened, I thought we were going to fall to the ground to avoid bullets but no Camorra Snr himself got out of one of the SUV’s. “It’s okay guys let me speak to him.” I walked over to him. “Camorra, you making sure I’m leaving?” I joked. “In a manner of speaking, I heard about the shit that went down in Sicily then I heard you were dead then you were alive and there is money on the line for information but I guess you know who wants you dead and that is why you leaving?” “That I do, but what are you doing here?” “I came to offer you my help that mother fucker Costa got hold of one of my sons and told him if we help him get you out of the way he will help us again. My son played along. He promised us the moon and the stars somethings he could never promise anyone. But I don’t work with back stabbers just call if you need help.” He pushed his card into my hand and got back in the car. “I can’t thank you enough Camorra.” “Don’t mention it just take care of it like a real Mafia boss not with words, words don’t work anymore.” “I will” Then they where off. I walked back to the car to find Rachel. “What was that about?” “Costa asked him to get rid of us.” “Wow that took some balls.” “That it did Bella. He also offered his help if I might need it.” “Let’s get on the plane and get home, let me take care of this shit.” We got on the plane everyone must have sobered up as soon as we saw that SUV’s. I phoned Damon and told him when we will be landing and his guys must make sure the airport was saved. How did Camorra know we were leaving. Costa must know we where on our way home. When we where safely in the air Bella and I went to the room and slept. I knew Bella’s blood pressure must have gone up when she saw those vehicles. So going for a nap was the best thing for both of us I needed to be clear headed when we land. We all needed to be clear headed. Especially because the Costa’s know we were coming. We will have to have eyes everywhere.
Rachel
When we stopped at the airport and I saw those SUV’s I could feel my heart rate going up. This is the shit I’m not going to miss when this is all over. I lied on the seat not looking up for a second until Marco said. “It’s safe Rachel, it’s the Camorra’s everyone is safe.” “But why would they be here?” “We’ll find out soon enough.” Massimo came back to the car and got me he told me the Camorra’s where there to warn us because Costa approached him to help him take Massimo out. Fuck the balls on these men. Their leader he wants to take out his leader the one they voted for. As soon as we where safely in the air Massimo and I went straight to the bedroom. “How did they know we would be at that airport Massimo?” “I don’t know Bella but I’m sure about one thing Costa knows we are coming home. I lied behind his back and held him I knew he had a massive hangover he needed to sleep of and the incident earlier had me tired as well. I closed my eyes with the hope all the men get some sleep and that we will make it in one piece to the apartment building. Getting home in one piece would be our first victory. I would definitely need to do some breathing exercises before we land just to keep my blood pressure down because if we get shot at or chased, I will lose it. This two weeks in Italy made me more tired that I ever was. I’m sure when you get back from a holiday you should be rested out and ready to take on the world this ‘holiday’ did everything but make me relax. It made me ready for war and to get rid of anyone that comes in the way of Massimo and my happiness and to keep these babies safe by all means possible.
