Taken By The Mafia Lord

"Yo Macy! Boss Adele wants you in her office," That was the message Macy received while on duty, and the warning bells went off in her head immediately.

However, Macy had to calm herself down, after all, she could be making a huge deal out of nothing. After Marcel found out what she did in the past, he put her to work directly under Adele who would keep an eye on her, hence it wasn't surprising she summoned her.

It's just that ever since Richardo risked her identity by kidnapping Winters, Macy has been feeling paranoid, thinking Marcel might have caught up to something. While Richardo advised her to leave the organization, it was not as easy as it sounded.

Being a member of a crime family was not a taxi. Once you are on, you are on. They won't let her get out. She knows enough about them to be considered a liability. And knowing Marcel, If the choice will be between her life or his life or his loved ones spending the rest of their lives in jail, her life will always be his first choice.

It was, "blood in, blood out," meaning that she was initiated through a ceremony that involves a little blood ritual and she leaves through death. Although there are a few members who retire due to ill health or other problems and are in effect, out. Officially, they're still in, but are considered "shelved"

Had she gone through her initial plan of killing Marcel, Macy knew deep down that she was not going to survive it. The Luciano family would hunt her down whenever she ran and would never stop until they decapitated her head as conquest. At least she would die honorably, having avenged her father.

Unfortunately, things have changed and she is now scared of dying. Having tasted the sweetness of life, Macy didn't want to give up on it anymore which was why she decided to use Richardo. She would play the role of the inside woman who would give him all the information needed to take out Marcel, while Richardo takes the lead in the war and ends Marcel once and for all.

However, It was quite sad that she joined forces with a bastard who didn't understand her aspirations. Richardo was merely using her as an excuse to pick a fight with Marcel when all of this should be vengeance for her father's unfair death. If there was anyone who knew her well and her need for revenge, she thought it would be Richardo, but she guessed time changes people.

While Richardo promised her protection if she leaves the Luciano family, Adele didn't trust it. He was impulsive and put all of his trust in the Bratva - who could always fail him at any time - unlike Marcel who was a clever businessman. Not to mention that he has his shrewd father, Daniel, by his side, which alone was a huge threat.

Deep down, Macy could sense all of her plans crumbling down but she could not look back now. It was already set in motion and there was no stopping it. The only thing she could do now was find a way to escape alive from when all hell breaks loose. Lives were going to be lost and she didn't want to be one of them.

So Macy left everything that she was doing and went to answer Adele's call. On her way to the office, her senses were on high alert as she scanned everyone that walked past her in case this was a trap after all. There was no harm in being careful.

Standing in front of her door, Macy's hand lingered on the doorknob for a while, steadying her heartbeat and composing herself before stepping into the office.

Adele lifted her gaze as soon as she came in, focusing them on her and Macy had to admit that she was a little unsettled by her probing gaze. If there was anyone she had to be careful around aside from Marcel, it was this woman, Adele Luciano.

Ambitious, smart, fierce, and grim, Adele wouldn't hesitate to have her killed once she uncovers her betrayal of the organization.

Macy unconsciously straightened up,

"You called for me, ma'am."

"Yes, I did," Adele stood up, picking a brown paper-wrapped bundle from the desk as she walked over to her,

"I want you to deliver something for me," Adele said, standing in front of her and intimidating her with her height.

"Of course, ma," Macy agreed right away. That was how it worked, there was no questioning. You go wherever you are sent without negotiation.

"Good." Adele handed the parcel to her and Macy received it, trying hard not to feel it. She had no clue what was inside and was naturally curious.

"If I may ask, Ma'm, who is the recipient?"

And at that question, Adele's eyes gleamed with an emotion that she couldn't tell except that it made her feel uncomfortable. Something was not right.

Adele answered, "Richardo Santi,"

Bang!

It felt like an explosion went off in her head. That explains the strange gleam in her eyes.

She knew.

They knew.

This was a plan to get her into an enclosed space to limit her chances of escaping, it dawned on her. But then, knowing that this was a trap didn't deter her survival instincts.

But the instant Macy attempted to make a move, the door burst open and several of the soldiers she once knew and worked with, banged into the room with their guns aimed at her leaving her no choice but to raise her hand in surrender.

All this while, Adele didn't move and leaned against the desk with her arms folded across her chest knowing everything was under control. One of the soldiers came out and forced Macy down to her knees, cuffing her hands from behind.

Suddenly a path was created in the middle of the room and Macy was shocked when her eyes rested on Victor. Of course, he was the only one she never thought would find out about her - when he was the one that knew her too well.

The both of them stared at each other and for a moment there, Macy thought she saw emotions in his eyes.

But Victor declared to her shock, "Macy, you have been found guilty and charged with the crime of betraying the Luciano family,"

He looked at the soldier by her side, commanding him, "Take her away,"

She was roughly dragged to her feet and Macy realized that this might finally be her end.

Oh no, she can't die like this.

"Victor!" Macy shouted, hurrying over to touch him and plead for mercy.

But she was pulled back and forcibly dragged out of the office while continuously yelling his name.
