Chapter 272
Massimo
I woke up much earlier than normal and after the last two nights of none stop sex, I felt so good. My Bella was back. I slowly got out of bed and decided to go to the gym. I haven’t run in a while and it’s time to get back on the horse. I don’t like running on the treadmill but I don’t have a choice now. I got dressed quickly and went to the gym. I was running nonstop until my phoned beeped telling me it’s been 30 minutes I was running. I got of the treadmill and started my rowing ritual. I’m going to be sore later but it just might be good for me. When I was done rowing, I started to do some weights. When Luca came into the gym I was actually smiling. Probable from all the endorphins. “Morning Luca.” “Boss.” “What’s wrong? If you looking for me this early in the morning something is wrong.” “Sorry boss, it’s the arms deal we’re working on.” “Can I take a shower first or do we need to talk about it right know?” “I’ll get you in your office boss.” Then he left me. Well, there goes my very good mood. I walked quietly into our room I didn’t want to wake Bella I was sure she was still tired and sore after last night. I showered quickly and got dress in my custom-made black Armani suit I put some of Rachels favorite aftershave on and then I quietly slipped out of the room. I was holding myself back I wanted to give her a kiss so bad.
“Okay Luca you have all my attention, what’s wrong with the arms deal?” “They are moving up the delivery date boss they want it by the end of this week and not next week anymore.” “But that’s not a problem we already have the firearms they want.” “I know but the thing with the Costa’s is not handled yet and they want you at the exchange as always. They will not except only me or Enzo. They said if you not there it just means you setting them up and they are a bit anxious about that.” “How the fuck can they think that? We’ve been doing business for years know.” “I know boss but.” “Spit it out Luca.” “They’ve heard you are actually an informer for the FBI.” “I wonder how could have spread that lie?” I asked sarcastically. “Phone them now, I’ll speak to them.” Luca called them “Luca?” I heard Kozlov say in his strong Russian accent. “Mr. Marchetti wants to talk to you.” “Good.” Luca gave the phone to me “Kozlov I heard you have a problem.” “Da we’ve heard you are FBI informer.” “I can promise you Kozlov that is not true I have someone in my own organization that wants me out of the way and is spreading lies about me. I have your firearms Luca can bring them to you whenever you want them. We’ve been doing business for years know Kozlov why would I betray you?” “Why does anyone betray anyone? I want my firearms and I want you to bring it to me.” “Kozlov, I have heat on me that I don’t want to bring to your door step. There are people that want me dead.” “I take care of myself and my men you just bring the firearms tomorrow our usual spot.” “Okay Kozlov but make sure you have extra men with you, just incase my shit follows me.” “Da.” Then he put the phone down. “Fuck fuck fuck. I didn’t want to go out so soon Luca but I can’t lose the Russians as clients, they are my best clients.” “I understand boss but at least it’s out in the open we will be able to protect you.” “Yes, but the same thing makes it dangerous. I’ll get Damon to send 2 more men or are we sorted?” “I took on 6 yesterday, leave Damon’s men and we see what these 6 are made of.” “Good, I trust you Luca.” “I won’t let you down boss.” Well, this day just went up in flames. I decided to phone Fedorov as well just making sure he didn’t here the same crap as Kozlov. “Marchetti, why you call me, I don’t have a shipment.” “Yes, Fedorov I know I just wanted to make sure you hear it from me I’m not an FBI informer, there is rumors spreading about me.” “Da” “So you have heard them to?” “Da.” “Well, I’m giving Kozlov his shipment tomorrow and I will be there personally.” “Da.” “I don’t want to lose your business Fedorov.” “We’ll see tomorrow if Kozlov get’s his shipment and get’s home safely then I’ll decide.” And just like that he put the phone down in my ear. Costa and Bernardi is messing with my business know. I will get rid of them and the sooner the better. I immediately phone Damon. But the phone went to voice mail. Then I tried again and I heard a soft “Just hold on Massimo.” A few minutes later Damon was back. “What’s wrong Massimo?” “That Costa and Bernardi is messing with my business Damon, the Russians want to pull out because there is a story going around that I’m an FBI informer.” “Fuck Massimo.” “Yes, Damon Fuck. I need to deliver the shipment to Kozlov personally tomorrow or else he will not come and Fedorov said he will decide after tomorrow if he will still do business with me.” “I don’t think this shit with Costa will be dealt with by tomorrow, Massimo, at this stage Costa is debating calling Romana or showing up at his house I told Ghost to tell Q to push Costa to phone Romana.” “Good” “What are you going to do tomorrow?” “I’m going to go with all my men and deliver Kozlov’s shipment and hope for the best. I can’t let Kozlov get hit in the crossfire so I can’t even say we can set a trap for Costa. I’ll have to do it very quietly.” “Do you need more men?” “No Luca just appointed 6 yesterday we going to throw them in the deep end.” “What can I do?” “Just keep an eye on Costa’s house and make sure there is no men leaving his place in a hurry if they do take them out. I’m done waiting. Costa wants a war that is what he will get.”
