Wrong Place ?

Chapter 32

I wiped my hands clean and went to open the door.

It was Zachary and Peter.

"Hey guys." I smiled at them. They smiled back and Zachary opted for a warm hug instead.

"Haven't seen you in a minute baby." He grinned. We talked for a minute, Peter also expressing how he would love to see more of me.

"We bought this for the big man. It was delivered to the club." He passed on to me a squared, gift wrapped box.

"A gift? For a drug dealer? What's going on in this crazy world of yours?" My eyebrows shot to the sky. I mean what drug dealer chooses to take their time in wrapping up a gift?

"No worries, it was clear of a bomb, so we don't know what's in it. The instruction said, only to be opened by the boss." Peter said, rubbing his nose.

"He is in a meeting right now." I said, and took the box from Zachary's hands. "I'll give it to him."

"Please do, we have to get back to the club." The two men hugged me once again and left in their sport car.

The box was rather heavy. I placed it on the kitchen counter, and continued with my potatoes.

Just as I put them on the stove and started on tenderizing the steak, my aunt walked in with fresh flowers from the maids corters.

"Oooh, whose gift is this?" She quickly placed the flowers next to the gift and picked the box up. "It's heavy. Miguel bought you a present?" She smiled, her eyebrows dancing mischeviously.

I shook my head. "No, it's his gift."

"What did you buy him?" She asked placing the box down.

"I didn't. His colleagues brought it for him." I said.

"Well, can I get a sneak peek? We'll just tell him, I didn't know it was his." Just before I could say anything she started to unwrap the box oh so nicely.

Then Miguel and Nicholas walked in. Miguel looked at aunt Charlotte with questioning eyes.

"Oh Miguel!" She quickly put the box down.

I laughed. "Miguel that came for you. And my darling aunt here was trying to be snoopy." She glared at me. What? Gotta be honest.

Miguel didn't say anything. He just looked at the box and the red and black wrap that it came with. He stared at it hard, and I grew concerned.

"Who brought it?" He asked. Nicholas also eyeing it skeptically. The only people that weren't concerned were aunty and I. But the boys' behaviour made me to reconsider.

"Uhh, Peter and Zachary. They said it was dropped off at the club." I said turning around to put my stake on the griller. I love this kitchen. Spacious and highly equipped.

"Uhh, I will take this to my office." Miguel said.

"Let me see. I wonder what they got you, and I swear Miguel if it's from another woman, there will be hell to pay!" My aunt sternly spoke up. I turned around and found Nicholas smirking while Miguel is focusing on the box.

"Open it." My aunt said.

Miguel snapped his head to her and shook his head. "No, I will open it in my office."

"What are you hiding?" My aunt narrowed her eyes at him.

"Aunt Charlotte with all due respect, this is my gift whether it's from another woman, or another man, it's no one's business. Now I said I'm going to open this in my office, and that's what I'm going to do." Miguel spoke through gritted teeth. I thought he'd never show my aunt that cold and scary side of his but he just did and my aunt froze. The tone in Miguel's words was that of authority and power. It demanded attention and required no response.

He nodded his head to Nick and both men left the room. Well that went down smooth...

"Bloody cheek! How are you dating that man?" My aunt spoke up, after coming back from shock.

I turned around to wipe the counter of potato peels. "You shouldn't have opened his stuff." I said. That was the truth. She doesn't know Miguel like that, so she has no right to be snooping in his things.

"Are you taking his side? After he just spoke to me like I'm not twice his age?" She shrieked.

"Aunty..." I sighed. "You are a guest here. Respect Lobos and his things please. Now I'm not taking sides, yes he wasn't supposed to snap at you but you pushed him."

"Oh I pushed him? The man could be cheating on you Molly, and I don't want that for you. I just wanted to make sure he is treating you right." Oh well that is a sweet gesture comparing to the fact that Miguel and I aren't actually in a relationship.

"I'll talk to him." That seemed to put her at ease.

I made Greek salad and put in the freezer and cooked rice and gravy as well. I had a glass of wine as I was cooking and my mind was focused on the task at hand. Caroline found me cooking and happily kissed my cheeks and left to watch some Spanish soap opera on tv. Her job for the night was done. I told her I will do the dishes. I needed to concentrate on something.

When dinner was ready I dished up and put it on the dining table.

"You can eat. I'll go get the guys." I told aunty and headed for the stairs to Lobos's office.

I knocked and opened the door.

"Dinner is rea- OH MY GOD!" My eyes widened and I felt my lunch threatening to come up.

There on Miguel's desk, was a blood tainted human head.

A human head!!

A whole fucking human head!!

Next thing I was seeing were black dots filling my vision then all lights were out.
