《Friends With The Mafia Capo》Chapter XIX
Advertisement
"Mateo, sit down. You don't have to work out with me."
"We only have 3 more days till the deal is over," he says without slowing down.
"Oh shit, already?" I ask.
"Yes, but today is your last day. Tomorrow we are going to Greece."
"Stop," I say as I hop off the treadmill. "We are going to Greece?!" I yell excitedly.
"Yes. Now you have to tell your friends that they need to decide if you guys want to stay or not by dinner tonight," he says slowly stepping off the machine.
"Hey, hey, careful. Let me help you," I declare.
"I have to go upstairs to my office to fill out some paperwork."
I grab his large arm and throw it over my shoulder and head out of the gym. As we step out into the elevator I accidentally bump into the wall. He pulls me closer to him and presses the up button on the elevator. After a few moments the elevator dings, signaling that we are upstairs. Mateo leads us towards the office and opens the door without a problem. To be honest, I don't really think he actually needed my help.
He must have a high pain tolerance I guess.
Inside the large room sits a large, matte black desk and a matching piano on the opposite side of the room. Two priceless paintings are hung behind the large desk and a fluffy white carpet covers the ground, filling the empty space in the room.
Mateo walks over to the piano stool and gestures for me to join him.
"You play?" I ask.
"Yes. Father made us learn when we were young."
He slowly lays his fingers on the white and black keys and gently starts playing a sweet tune. The way he plays makes it seem like he does this so effortlessly. You can hear his raw talent in the way he makes it look so easy. You can hear the technique in the music after years and years of practice. The way his fingers move onto the other keys, the way he looks at me while playing seems so perfect- no- so real.

I look into his handsome green eyes and I forget about my family problems, I forget about college, I forget all the stress that is on my shoulders. I see him, and only him.

Vampire's Pet
The world had gone to hell long ago, taken over by the vampire race. In order to keep some sort of peace in our land, the Vampire Lords made a consecutive agreement. The rich and powerful humans could survive just as they had been, untouched by the vampires save for the occasional blood collections, or so they thought In reality, we were all under their control. Castles spread out throughout our land, one landing in each city. Each castle varied in the number of vampires residing there, but all of them carried a Lord. The Lords were the ones in charge in every city, whether we liked it or not. The vampires often roam through the city, making sure that everyone was in order and no one stepped out of line. If you stepped out of line, you died, end of story. Even if the rich were still under their control, their lives were still better than the poor. The poorest lives held a much worse fate. The men were to be put to work as slaves, whether that meant serving a specific vampire, or just building their castles, they were slaves. The women were to be pets.Pets were the lowest rank you could have. They were forced into cages that were too small to stand in with collars around their necks. They spent their lives in pet shops, just waiting for the dreadful day that they'll be bought. They were treated like animals, trained into what their master wanted, and punished if they misbehaved. Those who were lucky enough to live through that, we're to be slaughtered for their blood at age twenty-five in an act to make sure that our population would stay steady. I was born into this world. Born into this world full of blood-sucking monsters. Except, I was one of the lucky ones.Was.It all ended for me when I was 12, when I was taken away from the last bit of hope and family that I had left. Ever since then, I've lived in a cage, just rotting away, waiting, dreading for the day that some monster would make me his.This is my life. I am a pet.~~~Cover by: @mshacake
