people wanted him dead because he became very successful at a young age, his father was the founder of the Mafia group. When he became too old to run the business, his son Leo took charge. Leo mexpanded it more and built more name that his father, this led to hatred from other mafia groups.
Leo doesn't care, he let the gun speak.
"Vladimir", he called.
Vladimir signalled to his boys to bring the little box containing Leo's coke. He thought by seizing his coke, he would put fear on Leo's mind but little did he know that Leo was not someone to toy with. He is ruthless, a devil's incarnate.
Vladimir's guard hurriedly came in with the box, he dropped it on the table. Leo opened it to check if it was truly his, he brought out a little dagger piercing the packed coke and sniffing it.
"So--oo, now what?", He smiled knowing that Vladimir doesn't understand what he was saying, he has his guard translating what Leo said to him.
Vladimir laughed.
"Ya ne yedinstvennyy, kto idot za toboy Leo ( I am not the only one coming for you Leo)", he glowered at Leo.
"I know", hitting the man on the chest with his foot, the force sent the man backwards sprawling on the floor that he spat blood. Leo stepped on the man kneeling beside him, he watched in satisfaction as the man's face twitched in fear.
"Now tell me, how should I kill you?", He got up circling the man.
Vlad showed no response as he has given up, he laid on the floor unmoving and defeated.
" Any last words?"
"Poshel na khuy ( fuck you)". Vladimir spat.
"I see there are no last words", Leo drawled.
He brought out his gun, Vladimir shuddered, exhaling shakily. Leo smiled.
"Bye, bye", he pulled the trigger watching the man body lay limp on the floor. He pushed the body away watching his guards stared at him in fear, they surrendered their guns, kneeling in front of him.
"Too late", he smirked. " Kill them all", Leo ordered.
Leaving the room, the restaurant resounded with the sound of gunshot.
Leo watched people screaming and running out of the restaurant, he joined the crowd lighting his cigarette as he exit the place.
"Let us go", Leo ordered as he neared the guards, they quickly obeyed driving off the scene before the cops arrive.
Leo smiled bitterly, he hates when he gets his hands dirty. His first victim was when he was nineteen, that was when he had his first kill. His father was brutally murdered right in front of him by his rivals. That was when leo knew the world was a wicked one.
When leo became the leader, he killed all those responsible for his father's death. That was when he became a blood thirsted monster, some people said he was psycho, some said he was cursed. But he knew in his heart, the world made him who he was today.
He lit his cigarette inhaling it deeply before slowly exhaling. What he needed now was a nice and comfortable bathe. And a woman by his side, definitely not Zoey.
Elizabeth's POV
Walking in the street of London, she swing her purse gracefully. Elizabeth smiled remembering today's event. She wander around looking at the new stores and came across a little girl selling hand made bracelets, Elizabeth stopped in front of the girl smiling.
"Hello", Elizabeth waved.
"Hello", the little girl replied.
"Do you want to buy?", She asked timidly.
"How much is it?" Elizabeth asked.
She picked a colorful one with a moon and star pendant.
"I like this one, how much is it?" She asked again.
"One dollar", the girl replied.
"Okay", she gave the girl two dollars. Seeing how happy the girl was, she smiled.
"Would you help me with it please?", The girl nodded. Helping her put on the bracelet, Eliza raised her hand checking the little bracelet.
"I like it, it is beautiful---", Elizabeth paused leaning to pinch her cheeks.
"Beautiful like you", she continued making the girl giggled.
"Thank you. I am Elsa" she introduced.
"And you are??"
"Elizabeth", she replied.
" You are beautiful", the girl commented.
" Awwn, thank you", Elizabeth cooed.
" Do you know the meaning of the pendant?" The little girl asked to which Eliza shook her head.
" The star is in the moon which means you are a star and the moon is protecting you", she explained.
" But I have no moon", Eliza said confused.
" You will soon ", she smiled.
" And the moon will protect that shining light of yours.
" Uhmm, okay--yy" , she smacked her lips, saying good bye to the girl, she left.
"Her moon", she thought. She kept on replaying the conversation she had with the girl.
Girl, she was so confused. Sighing, she walked in the empty street. The night lamp was on, Elizabeth was tired, she had a long day today, she stared at the moon shining above. It was going to protect her. She was angry, tired and confused. She will try to believe the girl.
Reaching her turf, she yawned loudly sitting on her bed. She has to leave here and find a better place to sleep. The place was too risky for her. Making herself a cup of tea, she carried it to a hill beside her home. Elizabeth sat on the floor looking at the beautiful clouds and the city beneath it. She is always in awe anytime she see the city lit up at night. It is a view she can't get used to. Sighing, she lowered her head, she doesn't want to think about how her life was.
Flashback.....
Getting her prepared for the man to take her away, the guards handed her to the maids to bathe her and put her in her finest wears. Elizabeth couldn't stop crying, she trembled as the maid bathe her. After putting on her clothes, she chewed her lips nervously trying to formulate a plan.
" You are looking beautiful princess", the man commented.

"Come here", Mario said to which Eliza shook. "I need to use the restroom", she feebly said looking at everything but not the man. "My princess is shy", he said. The guards laughed along with him. "You have one minute to finish your business." He dismissed her. Eliza let out the breathe she has been holding since. She locked the restroom door and turned on the tap letting it run freely. Reaching for the window, she climbed the toilet seat. Raising herself gently, Elizabeth squeezed herself in the window. Jumping out, she landed on her foot twisting it at the process. Her landing made the guards noticed her when she tried standing up. " Hey, stop there, stop", one of the guards shouted alerting the rest of the guards. She need to run. Struggling with her twisted ankle, she dragged herself running as fast as she could.
he was getting frustrated. Hearing no reply from him, Martin raised his hands in a sign of peace. "Chill man, the box", Martin ordered his guards to bring the box. His guards turned to give him but noticed the box missing. "Boss, the box....." "What!", Martin exclaimed. "It was right here-- I --It-- The box", he stammered making no sense as he was having difficulties formulating his words. "You messing with me", Leo fumed. "No, I dare not Leo, the box was here, right here", he pointed to where the box was previously seen. "Search the whole area, that box must be found" Martin ordered. He was covered in sweat shaking in fear. He swallowed knowing what Leo looks like when he is angry. This was Eliza cue to leave, she carefully tu
"I am not a spy, maybe a thief but definitely not a spy" Elizabeth huffed, even in the face of danger, she was really trying not be scared but deep down she almost peed herself. Her legs buckling under her. "She won't have taken it if you took care of it" Leo said to Martin, Martin immediately kept quiet. "So buttercup, time out" with that, he knocked her over the head with the gun, hard enough to make her pass out. She fell into his hands, he stared at her face so peaceful when it was close but it belongs to a very naughty girl. He smirked, getting her into the car. Before that, he turned looking at Martin and spoke... "It was nice doing business with you". "Same here my friend", Martin replied which made Leo rolled his eyes. He had no friends, actually, he needs no friends. Not bothering to counter the statemen
" Thank you very much, I mean it", Elizabeth thanked Anita. She had never got to wear luxurious wears until when she was kidnapped. Being kidnapped is a good thing at least better than when she was living on the street. She hope all were full of rainbows not knowing what is to come. Anita Led her to her room. " Here is your room, I will pick you up when it is time for dinner", Anita said as she strode down the corridor. " Thank you" Elizabeth whispered. She has never been treated this way, walking inside the room, she made sure the door was shut before squeaking. Jumping up and throwing her arms in the air. The first thing that came to her mind was to bounce on the bed. Her room was almost the same as that of Anita's room but the colour made it different. Elizabeth bounced on the bed laughing, lay
The warehouse was deadly silent, he knew he was right. Stephen trailed behind him with his gun held forward. Some guards stood outside securing the area while some followed Leo in. Hearing some muffled sound, he headed towards it and saw pablo and Ashley tied to a chair. Hearing sounds of bullets firing outside, it was a set up. His enemies came out firing at them, Leo took cover behind a tank, stepping out, he shot at them, he never missed his target. He aimed at them taking the enemies down on after the other. One of his rivals tried fighting him, with a swift motion, Leo snapped his neck using the body as a guide when one shot at him. He shot him, the bullet made a hole through his head. Some of his boys were injured too. Moving deeper into the warehouse, he hid behind a pillar seeing more enemies coming at his direction, he reload his gun aiming at them, he shot continuously at them, reloading his gun when necessary. One of them managed to sh
"I am not like you Leo, I don't wish for anyone's death" she replied. Anita rushed in with the nurse, seeing the state they were in, she has nothing to say, all she cared was her brother's health. The nurse put her tools on the table. "This is going to hurt Mr Leo", the nurse said. "Just fucking get to work", Leo groaned. Bringing out her injection, she injected the dose in his body to avoid the wound been infected. The nurse cleaned the wound apply some ointment, she began to stitch. Leo held the arm of the chair tightly, he would hissed in pain when the needle entered his skin. Elizabeth stared with frightened eyes, if she was the one getting stitched like this, she would have fainted or asked for anasthetis. He was a strong man, she thought.
He never wanted her close to him because people closer to him are always the next target that is why he never let Anita out freely. Now with Elizabeth, this will be very hard to control. His sister is different from his woman, she will surely be targeted. So taking her to the gala night, she will be known as his woman. Is he making the right decision? Leading her into the hall, she was nervous but when Leo slipped her hand under his arm, she felt calm. Keeping up with his pace, they looked perfect together like a couple. People stared at them raising their champagne glass at him. He nodded his head in return, looking over at Elizabeth. She looked perfect, her beautiful lips were parted as she breathe through it. He wondered what flavor of lipstick she used. He wanted to taste it. Seeing how nervous she was, he squeezed her hands in a way of
