Rafael was exhausted, he needed to find the girl and fuck her soon, or else he would lose his sanity, not wanting to think about her anymore Rafael shifted his attention to Silas, “How is that family of yours Silas?” Silas was not expecting this question from his boss but still managed to answer, “they are fine Capo”.

“And that son of yours?” he continued just for the sake of making conversation.

“He is fine capo, he is not my son, he is my sister’s son. I am sure you don’t remember her, but yeah, they died before he even made it to 1. We are raising him as our own. He is getting along well I suppose, he is getting better and active since we hired our new babysitter, she is better than anyone we ever had”, Silas said not wanting to make his boss wait for an answer.

“Good, I don’t know how you put up with kids and their nastiness, I could never, by the way when are you officially getting married, are you still with that woman, how many times do I have to tell you to move to our building closer to me and my brother, you are like family too you know, besides it’s just my brother and me in that mansion. Mum and Rachel visit very few times a year. You staying with us will make both of our lives easy you know?”, asked Rafael irritated at Silas for not listening to him. He could force him if he wanted to, but he doesn’t want to force him.

“I guess you will find out in time Capo, I do want to move Capo, but you know the kid and he needs some special attention, you would be really annoyed with him”, said Silas not wanting to pique his capo’s interest anymore.

“Maybe I can tolerate him for you?” it sounded more like a question to him than a statement. Silas did not respond to that; he had no idea how to respond.

Silence fell in the car “Capo”, he called Rafael.

“Yes!!” Rafael responded. “it’s about that daycare center in our office, people are finding it difficult to pay for babysitters, if you could arrange a daycare in our office, it will benefit everyone”, said Silas bringing his concern to his boss.

“I told you I hate kids Silas, if they cannot afford kids, they shouldn’t have them. I don’t want this topic brought before me again, do you understand?” Rafael said making it final.

Silas kept quiet not wanting to prolong this topic as his boss’s decisions are concrete. Silas is his most trusted employee, he didn’t let Silas know about this, but he will think about his baby care idea and will make sure it is far away from his cabin, as far as possible, he cannot tolerate the sound of babies at all.

Meanwhile, Alzea got home terrified. She sat in her living room crying. Her door opened, and the sound of the door scared her even more. When Blake saw Alzea lying on the ground with her disheveled appearance, she crouched down next to her, asking what happened. Alzea tried to explain but couldn't form coherent sentences, the poor girl was shaken.

“Alzi, what happened? Why are you crying? Did something happen?” Blake rubbed Alzea’s hands up and down. She couldn’t explain anything and kept crying.

Blake didn’t say anything, she just let Alzea cry. After crying for a while, Alzea cooled down and explained what had happened to Blake. To say that Blake was shocked would be an understatement, “we’re sorry Al, we didn’t know this happened. We were lost in our own world; I shouldn’t have left you alone. I won’t ask you to go there again. Okay? I am so sorry”, Blake kept repeating like a mantra and Alzea nodded absent-mindedly.

After sitting there for a while and letting her fear go down,” It’s time to get you cleaned up, I'll stay with you”. said Blake helping Alzea up. “Did you eat anything at all Al?” asked Blake looking at Alzea.  Alzea got up suddenly and remembered something, "Matt. I need to call him, he said he would hurt him if I made a sound, I cannot let anything happen to him, I will die if he is hurt because of me”.

Trying to help Alzea, Blake said, "Matt's fine, he called me since he couldn't find you; he sounded shaken up too, he didn’t give me the details but told me he couldn’t find where you were, and he thought something might have happened. Don't think about anything, just sleep and rest."

Alzea got up and went to the restroom trying to forget what had happened. She undressed and looked in the mirror, and she gasped at what she saw, there was an olive-sized hickey where he bit her earlier, she touched the hickey and she could feel the indent of his teeth marks deep on her skin, it was burning where he bit her. It’s like he left it there to remind her whom she belonged to, something about the guy didn't sit well with Alzea. He seemed dangerous and dominating, his voice is unusual, and the way he talked and moved felt like she had known him for ages but couldn’t put a finger on how or where she know him from. It is impossible, isn’t it? She had never seen him or heard his voice before. But why does she feel like something is wrong with this whole situation and yet feels naturalistic? Is she losing her mind? Why does she feel like he was staking a claim on her?

No, she will not think about this guy anymore, thinking about him is giving him power over her. She'll move on; she'd dealt with bigger issues before. If she sees him again, she will deal with him, and she won't fear him. The incident in the club caught her off guard since it was the first time, but now that she knows what will happen if she comes across him again, she will be prepared. Sighing She applied some anti-septic cream and cleaned it.
