A Mafia’s Obsession

LEONARDO

“In the past four months” I began, leaning back into my chair and puffing out cigarette smokes into the air. “Our drugs have always had a hard time in passing through Ecuador and Panama which borders Columbia”

I studied the facial expression of Stefano harden, his fists clenching as it encircled the glass of water placed before him.

Stefano oversaw the distribution of our drugs through the boarders of Ecuador to Columbia and also from Paraguay to Argentina.

“Look Stefano, I got word that the drugs had been recovered”I told him.

“Well thanks to me”I conceitedly added. “But I always encounter difficulties when those fucking drugs are being sent through the boarders of Ecuador and Columbia and I find it so surprising since I have high classed politicians in my pay roll and I pay those bitches sitting in the embassy and boarder” I grimaced at Stefano.

I watched his mind raced far, probably thinking of an explanation to defend himself.

“W-well y-you can’t blame me. The custom officers are changed on a regular and…”Stefano stuttered in his speech with lips quivering.

“I have men situated at the boarders of Brazil by Uruguay to the South, Bolivia to the South West and Guyana to the east. My drugs go in smoothly without any hassle. Luca and his underbosses oversees that and I pay the politicians less compared to what I pay those in Ecuador and Columbia” I cut in sharply, leaning forward and banging my fist on the broad mahogany table that seperated I and Stefano.

He should thank his stars that I can’t reach forward and snap his damn bloody neck. I already had a lot dealing with and I didn’t want any more mishaps.

“Stefano where does the money I send to Ecuador and Columbia go? Into your pockets?”I inquired, my lips pulling to a scowl.

Stefano looked like he could pee in his pants. He immedately gulped down the glass of water.

“C’mon we are business partners Leonardo. How could you possibly think I can cheat you?”

“We are not business partners!”I yelled in rage. “You are my pawn. You are just the face of the Constanzo family in Ecuador and Columbia. I call the shots and I control what happens” I reminded him gruffly.

Pathetic how he could possibly think we are equals. I should be home with my love, Crystal.

But I am here dealing with this damn bloody motherfucker.

“I want transaction records of all the trades that has taken place in Ecuador and Columbia in the last four months within a week Stefano”I bellowed my orders to which he grudgingly gave a nod of his head.

I lulled my head backwards on the chair as Stefano cleared his throat to speak.

“I got your plans for the new drug farm. But… I..”He spoke hesitantly.

“I don’t understand it”he confessed.

“What is there not to understand?” I scoffed at Stefano.

“My profit”he simply stated.

“I’m cutting it short”I replied without batting an eyelid at him. My eyes roved upwards with more foggy cigarettes smoke puffing out of my parted lips.

“You can’t do that”Stefano retorted. I brought my gaze to his.

I could see the flash of anger and bewilderment registered all over his face.

“And why can’t I?”I cockily asked.

“Because I work my ass out too capo dei capi. I not only supply those drugs to Ecuador but I supply from New Mexico down to Columbia”

“Marcello will take over that from you. I’ve sent him a contract for that. He will supply those drugs to some parts of Europe too and largely Africa and the Middle East. Dario and the other capos will oversee the distribution in the Middle East”I said with a smirk.

“I can’t believe you are doing this to me capo” Stefano uttered in shock.

I ignored his wave of shock expressions. “You will only recieve payment from the sale of narcotine. All other like heroine, opium, cocaine, Crystal methamphetamine and the likes are all out of your reach”

“What the fuck! The drug farm in Columbia isn’t even big enough to handle this much work load”Stefano raised his tone, hints of frustration and annoyance in it.

I chuckled at his silly and weak excuses. “I purchased a brand new farm. Eighty hectares to be precise. A much bigger lab is already functioning there”

He didn’t see that coming did he? I gave a sly grin at him. The bitch thought he could play smart.

I slid Stefano a copy of the amended contract whilst perusing his body language.

Stefano opened the contract, annoyance clearly visible in his features.

“Sign the contract”I authoritatively commanded.

“You can’t do this to me Leo. C’mon”he let out a cry of protest.

I wasn’t in for all this emotional drama. I immedately snapped my fingers and the guard standing by the door way to my office walked inside. He gave me an envelope to which I brought out its contents.

I took out snapshots of Stefano’s wife and daughter and threw it in the air.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

One fell close to Stefano and he at once picked it.

Horror seized him the moment he laid eyes on the image of his daughter and wife. I bet the cunt never knew I would find out that he was married.

“Linda aged 28 and Vanessa aged 10. Such beautiful and lovely females. A single bullet through their foreheads is enough to end their lives”I savagely spat.

I cared less about how he felt.

“This was taken…”Stefano horridly whispered.

“This morning” I completed for him.

“Now are you doing this the easy way or the hard way?”I gravelly asked.

His eyes snapped to meet mine and his body shook like a leaf in a violent storm. He grudgingly faced the contract and grabbed a pen to sign it.

“Great. Now get out. I’ll see you when I need you”I ordered, venom laced in my tone.

He stumped out my office whilst I watched him go with a satisfied smirk.

“Stefano looked very angry when he walked out of your office” Marco, one of my capos said with a chuckle as he walked into my office.

Marco was not only part of my mafia but he was like a brother to me. I could count on him whenver I needed him. We were like fire and ice.

Me being fire and him being ice.

“The cunt thought he could cheat me and walk away scot free”I told him leaning forward and placing my one hand on the table.

“Well you did let him go scot free without harming him”Marco mused.

“I taught him a lesson. I have more important things to worry about. I should be with Crystal right now”

Marco exhaled. He knew about my relationship with Crystal. He was also aware of the hit man sent to gun me but unfortunately Crystal got shot.

I had already given orders to my capos and underbosses under their various divisions to find whoever it was took that shot at my woman.

Just thinking of it got my fist all balled up. She literally took a bullet for me. She could have died if not for the timely intervention of the doctors.

I should be by her side now, holding on to her hand and declaring how much I loved her but I was here, dealing with idiots and also trying to trace the location of the bloody bitch that shot at my Crystal.

“Leonardo, Mario and Alberto are on the case. Their underbosses are on it. We will get whoever did this”Marco assured me.

I knew very well that we would catch the mother fucker.

My jaws clenched and my Adams apple gobbled. “I know we will. And once I lay my hands on his filthy body, I’ll definitely slaughter him like a pig”
