《Forbidden Flower》Chapter 8
Advertisement
I followed Nicholas into a room full of men and women in black leather. Their warehouse was like no other, the tall building was located in the middle of nowhere just a little outside of London. The building stood tall built with all glass that shimmered against the glistening sun.
Everywhere I turned all I saw were security cameras and guards holding machine guns in each hands. The security was so high and secured, no wondered why my father had never been able to break in.
We stoped in front of the crowded room and suddenly all eyes were on me. Don Seth Salvatore and the Donna, Alana stood in front of everyone awaiting for our arrival with the twin and Isabella standing behind them.
I was going to swear omertà to their mafia and joined them today. I was technically betraying my own mafia but this was the only choice if I wanted to finish my mission, my father would understand my decision.
This decision would turn out to be either my victory or my absolute downfall. I was playing with fire but I was prepared to get burned.
I stood beside Nicholas, the soon to be Don in the stage liked area as he started to ask me questions.
He stood tall in his powerful stance, he looked like the most feared man, his face was serious so ruthless and cold like a true Don he was. His grey eyes held fire that could burn any souls, and ice in his vein. There was no wonder why people feared his presence.
" Do you, Anastasia Rayne swear to put our family above all? " Nicholas asked in front of everyone while looking into my eyes.
My father was no loving man and never really was a true father figure to me. But, he and my grandmother came first, always. Family above all.

" I do. " I said looking at him blankly.
" Do you swear to protect our family against our enemies? " he continued.
I was your biggest enemy at the moment. Tell me how could I protect you from myself.
" I do. " I answered lying bitterly.
" Do you swear to keep our secrets by the code of omertà? " he asked again.
I could never keep anything from my father.
" I do. " I spat out one last lie.
Nicholas nodded his head and everyone started to clap their hands in excitement for their new mafia family member. Little did they know, I was no family of theirs.
" Welcome to the family, Anastasia. " Mrs Salvatore hurried toward me and gave me a hug.
" I hope you know what you're getting yourself into. You won't get out of here alive. Trust me on that. " Mr Salvatore nodded his head toward me.
It would be a lie if I said that I wasn't scared of the Don. Seth Salvatore was an intimidating man just liked his eldest son. I feared him but I needed to suck it up if I wanted to stay here longer and continued my mission.
" Welcome to the family. I still don't trust you. " Isabella said smiling at me sweetly.
Her innocent looks she had inherited from her mother might fool others but I was no fool. Isabella was a little devil hidden in the skin of an angel just liked her mother.
" I'm trying my best to be polite but if you try something on my family again I will tear you apart. " Elliot said glaring me while Eden huffed in annoyance as if he didn't even want to be here.
I nodded my head not saying a word as we moved on to the second task I had to do to become an official member.

The second task would be me torturing an enemy of the Salvatore's family and then murdered the person in front of everyone.
Finally something I was excited to do.
" He attempted to break the code of silence and sold inside information to outsiders. Show him what would happened to a traitor. " Nicholas said cocking an eyebrow at me.
So, he was trying to show me what would happen to me if I chose to betray him and he was being smooth about it too.
I narrowed my eyes at him before turning to the man that was tied to a wooden chair. He was unconscious but somehow untouched, there was no bruises or cuts on his body. Look like I was going to change that.
I walked up to the man and all eyes followed me around watching me carefully. I punched him in his stomach and his face trying to wake him up from his beauty sleep because I liked looking at my prey's eyes while I had my way with them.
The man groaned softly as his slowly fluttered open. His brown orbs stared into my hazel ones making my lips twitched into a small smirk. I picked up a knife from the table and caressed it against his cheeks.
" Let's have some fun, yeah? " I asked smiling at him.
Pinching his sharp nose between my fingers I cut it off and throw it into the air making him screamed in pain. I narrowed my eyes at him before moving to his ears then his lips and then both of his cheeks. After throwing the knife back on the table I picked up a butcher knife with a smirk playing on my lips.
The man looked at me bewildered as I chopped off all his fingers and toes. I then turn to lipless mouth and pulled his tongue out chopping into pieces.
From the corner of my eyes I saw people gagging in horror as they watched me in action with their hung open while the Donna, Alana herself on the other hand was smirking at me proudly.
" Monster. You're a monster. " the man blabbered as he spat out blood making my already drenched shirt became redder, painted in his blood.
" I never said I was an angel. " I cocked an eyebrow at him before I swung the knife chopping off his head.
His head dropped to the floor making a loud thud earning gasps from everyone. Nicholas was looking at me in disbelief with a hint of unknown feeling in his eyes, Elliot was hugging Isabella and Eden looked bored as always.
A few men came rushing on the blood bath at the end of my feet trying to take the dead body away.
" I didn't say I was done. " I muttered raising my eyebrow at the men.
They shared a look at one and another before turning to Nicholas asking for approval. The soon to be Don nodded his head and just liked that the men walked away without another words.
I turned back to the headless corpse and started my fun again. The man had done nothing wrong to me but god knew I needed to let out my frustration on something or someone.
" She's going to fit right in. " Alana whispered into her husband ear.

My Newest, and at the same time, Oldest novel. This is a Rewrite of my very first novel that I begun when I was just starting out. It follows the story of Mark Floyd, a broken man who once tried to do what he thought was right... only to be stabbed in the back and thrown away.Now, pulled into a conflict that spans time and space, Mark has a choice to make; Stand up once more, even if it means facing an unknowable future, or let the Embers of his heart die and sink back into darkness. ----------------------------------- “For gold is tried in the fire, and acceptable men in the furnace of adversity”. Once part of a Special Ops team in the US Army, Mark Floyd thought he had seen the worst that Humanity had to offer. That was until his final mission, one that would leave him a broken and shattered man, betrayed by the Country he served, and abandoned by society as a whole. His dreams filled with nightmares of the ones he failed to protect, mind and memories clouded by booze and more, Mark finds himself stumbling through life without purpose or desire. Life isn't done with Mark yet, however. For as long as even a single ember remains in a persons heart, here is still yet hope for the flames of Passion and Hope to be Rekindled. When the dying embers of Mark's heart catches the eyes of a Being far beyond his understanding, Mark finds himself thrown into a situation not even his years of training could prepare him for. Will this new chance be Mark's hope at both Redemption and Recompense? Or will it simply be the final nail in the coffin for a man already dead to the World? [This is a rework of my very first story. The general story will remain the same, however a few details have been tweaked, the chapters have be Edited better and some chapters have been broken down into smaller chunks for better flow and consistency. The biggest change will be to the System itself; It will be a lot less "Game-like", meaning no stats, levels or similar aspect, though skills will still be present in the form of "Programs". Instead, It'll focus more on the Sigil's nature as super-computers and how they change the world around them. This should make for a much more "natural" and less info-dumpy system.
