The Bully’s Obsession

Hayden

Fuck! 

The call ended. I crashed the cellphone to the nearest wall in a fit of rage.

The fucking bastard must have hurted her, her cry of pain over the phone echoed in my head. 

The CCTV footage showed Matteo lurking around the mall. 

I paced about restlessly like a caged tiger, words couldn’t explain how I felt at this moment in time. 

Sebastian spared me a glance but didn’t say a word. 

This matter was not just a simple case of me saving Gracie from a kidnapping, most  especially since dad has gotten involved.

I guess we all want Matteo,  but I wanted Gracie more… The thought of her being in that bastard Matteo hands made my fists clenched tightly. 

She had deceived me only to get caught by him, she probably didn’t know the difference between him and her uncle. 

She should never have left me. Big mistake on her part, especially when she knew danger was lurking around 

I guess her desire to leave me… to escape me beat whatever danger she thought was out there. 

I tried to push back the sour taste of hurt, but it still pricked my insides like a thousand needles. 

I just had to get her back first. 

I stopped pacing and turned to Sebastian 

“Why isn’t there fucking any news yet! ”

Matteo had said he was going to send me the time and location before he had abruptly ended the call, But we’ve already got our men tracking him down but we haven’t gotten any news until now. 

“You’ve got to get your shits together ”

“He still has her hostage I can’t fucking calm down! ” I breathed out in harsh pants .

A look crossed his features as he straightened up to meet my stare. 

“She’s going to be the end of you!  You can’t be so obsessed with anyone!  It will fucking ruin you! ” 

He wouldn’t understand,  even I don’t understand why I feel so intensely about her,  I couldn’t control it, I just learned to accept it. 

“I can’t help it,  I just want her back with me! It’s suffocating without her,  I feel… feel like I’m choking,  I need her to breathe! ”

We had a long battle stare, none of us willing to back down. 

“Fine,  then I’ll help you ” he finally spoke, there was something in his words that made me feel uneasy,  I know he wasn’t talking about helping me find  Gracie,  I just began to ask when the cellphone rang.

He took a pause to answer it

“They’ve found out his location ”

That was the news I’ve been waiting for all fucking day, it’s been just few hours but It felt like hundreds of years to me. 

“How about we go earlier and give him a surprise? ”

He gave me a curt nod and picked up his cellphone. 

“For that we are going to need a foolproof plan. ”

I stared around the warehouse, gun  clenched in my hands.. 

Just like expected, there were a few armed men around.

“Hand over your gun  ” one of them spoke in a gruff tone,  I spared him a chilling stare. 

“you should listen to him boy or…”

A very farmiliar voice sounded  , I turned around and my gaze located him. 

The sight had me seething in rage. 

He pulled Gracie by the hair as he approached me .

Her gaze were wide as it found mine, she didn’t look scared though or she was trying her best not to her fears, the sight of  her face swollen  with hand prints, her lips bleeding made something in me snap. 

It would surely take time to heal,  I’m still as hell very possessive of the fact that she could only be hurt by me.. 

Her tears and fears were god damn MINE!

No one else has the right to make her feel that way. 

They sure as fuck will pay for this. 

I wanted to tell her that it would be alright.. she was going to be safe.  

“What do you want? ” I spoke snapping my gaze to Matteo’s  , a sly smile formed on his lips as he shoved her away from him.

“Take her” he spoke to one of his men who held her to him.. too close for my liking. 

“I’ll rip off that hands when I kill you” I said in between clenched teeth. 

“Don’t act so tough now,  daddy isn’t here,  neither is big brother,  I didn’t think you’ll be stupid enough to come alone ” he chuckled as though he’d said something funny. 

I didn’t find anything funny at this moment,  I just want to blow  some god damned heads off.

“you’ve grown up , so different from the little boy I remembered, that used to follow uncle Matteo around, ah poor Jenny,  she was such a cute little thing” 

“Shut up , what in fuck’s name do want !” I snapped 

“impatient are we?  What if I say that I want you”

He stared up at me searching for a reaction,  well he was bound to be disappointed, I schooled my face perfectly into a blank expression. 

I just have to keep him talking until Sebastian gets here. 

“You want me? I’m here aren’t I? ” 

“Indeed you are ” he had a mocking glint in his eyes, his grip on the gun in his hands tightening. 

“You sent those picture texts” I said as a matter of fact

A sly smile formed on his lips,  he didn’t even bother to deny it. 

“How else was I supposed to rattle your attention, I was really surprised  that you actually care about this whore…. too bad your lovestory is coming to an end, because I’m sending you to hell. ”

I nearly smirked at his words,  I should allow him to  wallow in the delusion of being in control for a little while 

“You also killed her didn’t you, what I don’t understand is why ? ”

He knew I was talking about Brittany. 

“I had to,  she was fucking going to run her mouth off about everything and expose my identity to you, so I stopped her… if I may had she was a very bad fuck”

He laughed one of those sick laughter of his,  an evil look crossing his features. 

“This scene looks familiar doesn’t it? Enough talks , let’s put everything to an end”

“Are you sure about that? ” I spoke softly meeting his gaze squarely. 

A shot rang out just outside… 

Then another. 

His gaze flew to mine… 

“son of a bitc……”  his words were cut short when the door blasted open and many shots follow.

Everything happened in a blur as Sebastian and some of our men blasted inside 

I launched myself towards Gracie in a flash , producing a knife from my boot I stabbed the bastard holding her straight in his heart.

He screamed out his pain,  a satisfied look crossed my features when his blood spurted out coating my knife, his gaze were filled with surprise as he fell to the ground with a thud .

Gracie stared at the dead man in a daze.

shit.

This was too brutal for her to see.

she tilted her gaze to mine, but it wasn’t horror there. it was relief.

she wrapped her arms around me tightly taking me by surprise.

“I’m sorry ” she whispered sobbing into my chest.

My heart constricted tightly in my throat.

“You’ll be fine . i promise ” I murmured unable to stop myself from pressing a kiss to her temple. 

From the peripheral of my vision I saw a bleeding Matteo struggling on the ground , reaching to grab the gun a few distance away from him ,  a sadistic look spreading across his face as he aimed at Gracie 

“watch out! ” I yelled. 

Everything happened so fast,  I shoved Gracie out of the way but I wasn’t fast enough.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

It was too late. 

A shot rang out.
