CHAPTER 37

"You took me out of the diner and brought me here just to tell me nothing?" I mumbled, more to myself than to him.

"Oh please just keep quiet already!" He shouted vexed. I pressed my lips together stopping myself from roaring in anger. He was still pacing when I heard gunshots. A stray bullet came through the window and almost hit me.

I ducked running to the side of the bed. He covered me with his huge body pulling me under the bed.

"There is an attack let's go!" He shouted pulling me out. My hand in his. My heart beat stopped and started with a thump.

"From the police?" I asked in fear.

"No. They won't dare." I don't know from who. A rival gang who hasn't learnt their place. Fuck I'll kill all of them! It can't be Sophia can it?" He bellowed.

Downstairs twelve men were already gathered in the parlour. Armed and waiting for his orders. White lion started to pace again getting more agitated.

"What the hell is going!?" He shouted.

"Boss I have no idea but it looks like  Sophia has caught on to the fact that you have taken another woman. I recognized one of her assassins. This is just one of her jealous ravings. I can't believe that she is doing this again."

"Damn that ingrate. I let her head one of my businesses and she turns my boys against me. When will she learn that she is nothing more to me! I will show her no mercy. Let's go!" He ordered gesturing with his right hand for his boys to follow him.

He took out a gun from his pocket as he led the men out. "Take my woman inside and lock the door." He said to Beatrice. "And make sure that she doesn't leave this place. If she does I will have your head on a spike but that would be after I have killed everyone you have ever known. Do you understand me?!"

"Yes." She nodded in fear.

I watched as they entered the Suv's ready for battle.

"You need to go up ma'am." The housekeeper said startling me and pulling me out of my fearful thoughts.

I nodded and followed her lead up the stairs. There was no need to argue with her or to ask for her help.

She clearly saw white Lion as her god and she would never defy him for me. I was nobody to her_she definitely would not risk her life or that of those she loved just for me to escape the clutches of a mad man.

She locked the door behind after she had made sure that the windows were locked. She was shaking while she took me up.

Something was up and I didn't even know what it was. It was not my battle to fight though. I just wanted to leave.

I needed to leave now!
