《The Lilly Within the Ashes》Ch 30
Advertisement
Now that Anthony was out of the hospital and is "mostly" healed, it was time to have a little chit chat with my brother and maid. There was just one problem. A perfect, gorgeous, stubborn, and slightly scary, problem.
"Jason I am coming and you don't have a say in this!" The pout from her lips reminded me what happened the previous night, almost making me hard. Almost. But with the continuous quarrels since I opened my damn eyes that morning, her pout wasn't going to work. "Lilly you are not coming. That is the last time I'm saying this. Now give me a kiss so I can go."
A dangerous scowl stretched on her face, but before she could spit out more nonsense, Anthony slammed the front door open. "Hello mother fuckers! Let's get this show on the road!" Lilly's scowl shifted right over to Anthony, making the boulder of a man flinch. "Uuuuh so I'm guessing the blow job failed...?"
The room instantly became pin drop silent. I blushed like a mad man, but Lilly was even in worse shape than me. She had the brightest red I have ever seen on her face while fiddling with her fingers so fast I thought they would rip off. "Oh ho ho hoooo! So you did suck his dick!" I smacked him on the back of his head and growled 'Let's go you little shit'.
Before I could take one step out of the door though, I was scolded like a damn child. "Jason Lucas Attel! I am coming too!" A grown escaped deep within me. I don't know if it was because I was mad that she somehow knew my middle name or that I was going to explode from her stubbornness. "Fine! But I can not protect you from the words my brother or that bitch is going to say to us! Got it!" With a serious look and a quick nod, she stomped out the door.

I was about to angrily chase after her but a rough hand on my shoulder stopped me in my tracks. "Jason she is doing this to receive closure. This will be good for her." My tense shoulders and scowl relaxed. "Yeah, you're right." I huffed in defeat.
The two hour car ride to the new location was silent. I tried to say something to my Angel, but I kept coming to a blank when I would see her look out the car window, tears threatening to spill. I went to grab her hand to hold half way through the trip, but she wiggled her slim fingers out of my grip and scooted as far away from me as she could. Anthony sensing the tension, put in his earbuds right after that.
The beat down farm house, we pulled up to, made me second guess if we were really at the right location. Once stepping out of the truck, I felt a shaky grip on my hand and looked down to see Lilly nervously looking at the house. "Jason you have to promise me to let them talk. Whether it's good or bad. Okay?" I gently grabbed her chin so I could look in her hazel orbs. "I promise my Angel."
The house looked like it was about to cave and the paint and roof were peeling while almost every window was shattered. The look of the basement wasn't any better. The smell of mildew and mold instantly hit my nose. The stairs leading to the gloomy abyss whined after every step and the sound of a woman manically laugh made it feel like we were walking into an insane asylum. I was used to this kind of stuff and some that were even worse, but the trembling beauty that was gripping onto my arm was not.
Once I got us to the bottom, the two fuckers were the first things I saw. Both were surrounded by four of my guards while they were zip tided to their own fold out metal chairs. Their battered up faces and the missing teeth presented when my brother smiled, showed they weren't given five star treatment. Good.

"Welcome dear brother! I see you brought your sex doll and burn victim!" The maid manically laughed at Micheal's suppose joke while Lilly's hard grip on my hand kept me barely sane. "Cut the crap Micheal. You know why I'm here, so start talking." Silence swallowed the mold infested room while my brother glared right at me. "I deserved to run the familia. You only got it because you're the first born. Why else would I kill all of your clients and fuck your maid behind your back? You never changed the way things ran in that stupid house after dad. If I ran it, our mafia would have been more powerful than you could ever make it!" He leaned his head over to look at Lilly. "Oh and your house, Flower, was my favorite one. Your parents begging for mercy like little pussies right before I blew their brains out. Then there was you looking all cute and scared while you watched your mother die!"
Without realizing the strong grip on my hand was gone, Lilly already punched him in the nose, to hear a satisfying crunch. "Agh you fucking bitch!" Blood started to dribble down his chin while the curvature of his nose bridge resembled an 'S'. Lilly shook the pain from her hand and went back to where she previously stood.
"Maria do you have anything to say?" Lilly whispered. The bitch's laughter filled the room again but soon turned into wails. "I fucking love him! But he has that stupid pregnant wife and doesn't love me back!" The wails continued to echo through the small concrete room making a few guards flinch from the squawking noise. "Oh shut up you whore! You were only good pussy and you knew that!" Micheals reply must of set her off and the wailing maid thrashed around in her chair.
After ordering the men to transfer the two to a better surveillance and a closer location, we left the basement. I was silent and shocked when Jason dragged me out of the house. Before we reached the car, I could hear the guards screaming for someone to stop, forcing me and the boys to look back at the house.
Maria come out in rags, holding a makeshift knife that looked to be made out of crumbled cement, heavily breathing with tears falling down her cheeks. Within a blink of an eye, before any guards, Jason, or Anthony, could get to her, Maria stabbed herself in the throat.
"NO!"
I realized later that I was the one who screamed. I was so focused on running over to her through instinct, that everything else around me disappeared. The memories of our friendship flashed through my head. The times she calmed me down and when she made me start to feel normal again. The time she betrayed me was ignored because for some reason I still considered her as a friend.
I collapsed down on my knees and looked down at the dying woman. Her neck and the ground below her was pooled in blood. My tears fell onto her face while she tried to gasp for air. "I-I'm so sor-sorry." she gurgled before her last intake of air.
I sat there for awhile crying with Maria in my arms but was soon interrupted. The moment I felt Jason touch my shoulder, I jumped into his arms, sobbing so hard, no sound came out. He murmured sweet words in my ear as I felt him carry me to the car. When he sat me down and buckled me up, I took one last look at her lifeless and red covered body.
