—Y-yes, sir.
—And stop whispering in the wind, God doesn't listen to idiots like you.
I ignore it, it bothers me that people inside the house waste their time with stupid things. These types of people are kept with their legs open or doing housework, but they are not allowed to take their free time to talk as if they were friends among prostitutes. I hate it when they don't do their job properly.
That is exactly why Massimo put me on top of everything, leaving his son locked up, because he did know that I was going to occupy the minimum minute that I had left of life to continue attacking the family that condemns us to continue suffering or losing territories.
I promised Massimo that I would stay with Calabria, I rule the 'Ndrangheta and he runs the Sacra Corona Unita without problems.
I go straight to my bedroom where I have a large window where I can see the great wall that divides us from the plebs, I take one more sip enjoying the scenarios that I form in my head, the Marinos giving their lives for simple orders given by a whore like Emily Fiore.
Damn, she's not a great woman, she has her own thing, but how fucking disgusting it would be to see that my wife is on all the walls of the city naked.
That's what I liked about Emily, that she could never defend herself.
That's what I liked about Salvatore, that he was always going to try to help others, save his wife at all costs.
But when Salvatore was on the verge of death he was going to forget about the woman, he was going to forget about love and there would be the hero. Always giving his arm to twist when his end reaches him and makes him lose.
CHAPTER 19
DEFEND MY OWN
???????????????
Emily
We were ready, each one analyzing the positions, weapons and seeing each of the movements of the personnel who were supporting each of the ideas that each of the brothers proposed. Leone had recently had a call with Miranda, the girl who would help us enter without being noticed because she had taken care of helping us from inside.
As? He had contact with Alessio, which made him let him know how to enter so that security would not notice our presence at night.
The brothers do their job to be able to test things out, they analyze them several times, managing to polish some points and they make me part of the plan. Something in which I committed to follow each of their instructions because my knowledge is not enough for this type of contest where more than one can fall and without seeing the range. When I approach Salvatore I take him outside the circle of people who concentrate on laying out plan after plan with Leone's brilliant mind.
—What's wrong, princess?
—You have many plans in mind, many outings—I caressed her hand. The peace that spreads through my body makes me feel calmer. You want to help Alessio, the girl already told us that she was inside the house and that David was in the damned Matadero. All this is dangerous and everything is duplicated if we add more people.
His hand travels to my cheek which he caresses quickly, his soft fingers moving against my skin making me clear my mind for a second.
—Alessio can be a key piece for the total victory that all of us need, it is not important, but I want to try.
—Will you always be with me?
"Always," he swears without hindrance. I will have Domenico and Ginevra take care of Alessio, while we together with Leone will go after David. I assure you that no one is going to hurt you, you came prepared and although your legs are a little weak—it makes me laugh—I assure you that you will be able to help us.
-Do you trust me?
—More than you do it on yourself. —That direct confession attacks my thinking, making my ideas clear and the mentality that should change now that we are on dangerous ground. Fear and nerves combine in your body making you hesitate, it is normal when it is the first time you face something like this. You can't discern the magnitude of each of the movements and I understand that. I trust that you are going to surprise me, I want you to do it because when we return home the Godfather will be ready to integrate you into my world, the one that you have the choice to choose or end everything.
For the first time I feel the fear something different, I had always had it regarding failing in my relationship, failing in life or in front of my parents. Today I am afraid of losing that person who wanted to make a change in his life so that two unequal pieces could somehow complement each other without the need to fit perfectly.
Two people who are so different and similar at the same time is what I see between us, people are made up of pieces that you add as you increase your life experiences. The people who add to your world are pieces that add or subtract something, only you decide that, but in general you are a beautiful puzzle that in due course will reach the final solution.
Although Salvatore and I are those different pieces that will not fit together no matter how much you try to join them from different edges, I am sure that we are designed for the same puzzle. We are both part of this, we are part of the construction of something that unites us despite not having the necessary connections to fit.
People focused on that, on fitting in with the people who suited them or who they liked for their life. There are times that we must think about this, that we are different pieces that do not necessarily have to fit together perfectly, we must give importance to whether that person composes the same puzzle as you or composes another that is not yours.
If it is your game, your piece to build, it is more than enough to understand that both are imperfect pieces, but that they contribute to build the same thing.
