156- I do, A Thousand times, Yes – Part 2
Third Person
Their marriage now the beginning of a new era. The old ways now buried as new ones grew. Their marriage now opening for new investors and partnerships as well as unions as many where blown away by Isabella and her vast sea of knowledge.
Matteo beaming in pride along with Lucus and his brothers. The reception now taking place within the main dining room of the house. The room having been transformed beautifully into an elegant realm with an elegant dance floor.
Long tables each decorated in gold, platinum and pale baby blue, while roses in white sat neatly within the center including candles for that elegant feel. Strings of diamonds and pearl all woven throughout each arrangement to finish the look.
Fine China adorned in gold now sat neatly upon each table along with fine crystal glasses. All filled with either water or champagne as they stood waiting for guests to arrive. A six tier cake now standing off to the side while elegantly displaying the emblem for the D’Amico clan. Each tier a different flavor of cake along with different decorations. The cake beautifully done.
And as hours ticked by so did the reception. The reception a huge success. Followed by a five course meal, Isabella and her men each moved to enjoy each dish until finally it was time for their dance. Isabella and her men each moving to share one dance as they each took turns in twirling her playfully until Roberto, Matteo, Alexis and Jace all moved to dance with her as well. Lucus and his brothers now dancing with Sophia and Angelica.
The night a total success even as several speeches were given. Some funny while some pulled at heart strings. Isabella truly happy as she slowly enjoyed this moment with each of her men. That is until a random guard moved to approach Lucus, the guard now whispering within his ear.
Lucus’s face morphing into something fierce as he moves to signal for Alex. Both hoping that Isabella wouldn’t have seen but failed when Isabella went to collect Grant and Tony and together they each went to follow.
Neither prepared for what they would soon see. Their once magical moment now ruined by death and destruction. Isabella still unconscious during the car ride home. Tony and Grant soon moving to take her upstairs while Lucus and Alex were left with clean up duty. The party now over as many people were forced to leave except for Isabella’s parents, Lucus’s parents and Isabella’s uncle, Alexis Pardou.
A heavy sigh soon filling the air as each of the remaining people all moved to enter the office. Unable to process what they had just seen. Rage building the longer Lucus stood thinking about it.
“Gentlemen, it would seem that war is now upon us.”
Alex now using that statement as opening as he moves to pass his phone around the room. Having taken a few pictures prior to their return. Anger and rage now filling the room as those all currently present bare witness to those of the pictures. Lucus’s hands now balling into fists as 15 of their most trusted men now laid dead. Each of them beheaded while their heads sat upon spikes. Their eyes and tongues brutally removed while their bodies sat carved like a thanksgiving turkey. The name ISABELLA carved neatly into their flesh.
Marco, their once close friend and loyal companion was one of the unlucky few who had been placed among them as well. A sign dangling from around his neck as the sign read, Mr. and Mrs. D’Amico. Each word and letter written in blood.
Yet, the disturbing part of it all wasn’t the blood, it was the name D’Amico being crossed off and replaced by the names Salvatore and Manocchino. A note soon left behind as the note read with the following words.
“Congratulations to the now happy couple. Congratulations on each of our parts. The wedding was to die for. Literally. Hope you enjoyed our parting gift, until we meet again – A A V L.”
“Those motherfucker, cock sucking, wannabe assholes. They are so dead” curses Alexis as he moved to read the note. Their blood boiling at someone undoing all of Isabella’s happiness.
“The only question I have is how did they manage to know about the secret nuptials in the first place? No one had that knowledge except those in attendance” questions Jace, his words echoing the same thoughts of those currently present.
“I think I know how” says Tony. Tony now moving to enter the room. A tablet in tow as he and Grant along with two guards move to bring in a man. A man who was currently covered by that of a hood.
The man now chained at the hands along with a collar as they move to drop him to his knees. Tony and Grant both standing tall as they continue to eye those within the room. Grant now nodding his head over towards a guard who then moves to yank off the hood.
The man in question now being revealed as he continued to stand before each of those present. His face covered in cuts, blood and bruises. His face also swollen from the intense beating he had gotten as Alexis moves to speak up, clearly not happy by what he was seeing. His face full of anger and disappointment as he finally moves to speak.
“Marcello?”
