The Ruthless Mafia King's Posession|18+|

*LUCIANO*

For every second I pondered on it, I felt more confused than the last. The truth is, I barely know what to believe.

As I paced around in Janie's room, thinking about the letter I had received. The thought of Sebastiano being alive was something I couldn't understand.

"It can't be him," I mumbled to myself, trying hard to disregard the fact in front of me; his letter. His death was something I could vividly remember, and it had no survival plot, no means of escaping death.

I remember never wanting his death to occur, never wanting to path ways with him being family, but his jealousy was something I couldn't comprehend. He changed overnight, or maybe I didn't notice on time.

Sebastiano was a lying, sneaky, and cunning bastard who wanted to take over my empire, disguising himself as a trusted ally.

Three years ago, Seb, as I liked to call him, and I worked hand in hand. He was my cousin, and a trusted accomplice. Apart from Romano, I could count on him whenever I needed someone to run my secret errands, so he was more than just family.

One evening, I overheard him talking to someone, but his tone was so low that I could barely hear the entirety of their discussion. It was suspicious.

Although before now, I had secretly gotten a whiff of his betrayal, but I turned a blind eye to it, hoping he would settle for the best and changed his path...his plans.

I asked him who he was talking to, but he said one or two things to make me believe that it was an old friend, and his lie made a lot of sense.

Another fateful day rolled in, and I got a call from someone, a call that changed everything.

On that particular day, Seb was meant to deliver some goods to one of our warehouses, so he sent out five of my henchmen to escort the goods and deliver them safely. Everything was going well until he got a call from one of them. It hadn't taken that much time since they left, so I thought he could handle it, but he gave me the phone. Apparently, one of my henchmen called, informing us that they had been intercepted and were under attack.

"What's going on?" I asked the henchmen on the other end.

"We're under attack, Boss," his voice echoed from the phone, along with several gunshots in the background.

"Why didn't you take a different route then? Are you mad?" Seb yelled at him. The call was on speaker, so everyone got to hear the conversation, which made it possible for him to respond.

"I'm sorry, sir," he apologized.

"Don't move. We'll be right there. " Furious by everything, I gave the order without thinking straight. I should have been more conscious about everything, but I didn't notice on time.

"You don't have to go anywhere. I'll take some men with me and we'll intercept the attack. " Sebastiano's words were that of worry. I knew he was capable, but at that point, I feared his death. I was closer to him than I was to Romano. To me, family meant a lot, but he cared less about it.

"No," I said.

"I'll go with my men. You..." I said, pointing to Seb.  "And Romano will stay put and manage this warehouse," I ordered, but he insisted.

"Let me prove my loyalty and stick with you. At least let me protect you," he said, his attitude unwavering.

"Alright then. Get the rest of the guys with you and meet me outside, take every load with you." finally I agreed, instructing that they took a lot of ammunition with them.
