Chapter 94 - you're not worthy

"Mike is it? Stand up, listen and learn. Hand me a gun." Seraphina held her hand out waiting for someone to give her a pistol. Although Riggs was a few feets away from her, his speed was like the flash. No one could calculate how fast he approaches her.

The moment Riggs reached her, he diligently placed a gun on her hand like a good servant which made Tito's eyes widen.

'What the f*ck?' Tito appalled inwardly.

"What -- what are you doing?! Are you just going to watch them kill your protector?!" Victor Wang desperately hissed witnessing the scene before him unfold. He glared his bloodshot eyes towards Mike's direction who's wordlessly stood rooted on the ground.

*BANG* BANG*

Two gunshots resonated instantly the moment the pistol landed on Seraphina's possession. It aims directly on Victor Wang's legs and arm -- missing any vital parts. Her marksmanship was precise and smooth.

Mike's groups almost drop their jaws seeing this innocent albeit messy looking woman's action. She neither flinch not trembled by the impact of pulling the trigger -- it was as if she is a veteran!

"Ahhhhh! Waaaah!" the excruciating pain when the bullet penetrated Victor Wang's skin up to his flesh could make him lose his entire mind. He realizes that this time, he will never escape death, again. Or rather, he just wishes for instant death to not feel any pain anymore. Alas, her next words pulverize his wishful thinking.

"This is for my friend's injury. How many girls did you silence, r_a_p_ed and ruined?"

Although her eyes were fixed on Victor Wang's howling figure on the ground -- Mike understood that her questions were for him. He gulps a mouthful of saliva as he musters all his courage and composes himself to answer her inquiry in full honesty.

"Approximately 5 dead girls and 6 girls who're living in somewhere far away. This is only the things that I know." Mike answered with his still coarse and trembling voice. Regardless, he delivers his words clearly and concise.

"Where are the bodies?" Seraphina asked once again.

"We set it as a suicide so the bodies are with the families already." Mike answer was much faster this time.

"Alright. Where is Tuna boy?" jumping with other concern after her inquiry about Victor Wang's crime as she knew how to deal with him later.

Mike kept his silence for a moment. He pondered about this girl's identity. Although he acknowledges Tito as one of the Big Boss's second-in-command or in a simple term; an underboss. He was still somewhat reluctant to answer her last query.

"Don't think too much. Just answer me." as if she knew what's on Mike's mind, she reassured.

However, Seraphina was rather annoyed by the continues screams from Victor Wang, thus, she shoved her pistol's muzzle inside his mouth which turned the constant annoying screams to muffled ones because it is harshly choking him.

"Be grateful that I don't want to stain my hands anymore on you." She warned. The already terrified Victor Wang felt more horrified the moment he made eye contact with her. Her eyes were burning in rage and a touch of malicious intent could be traced.

'She'll kill me! No, she won't. She won't let me off easily this time.' In the midst of Victor Wang's chaotic mind, a clear thought circled on his head -- over and over again.

Her action was merciless and manlier than any of them. Although Mike was hesitant to rat out Tuna's location, he held the faith on his boss' bosses; Tito. he spoke.

"He-- he's outside of the country at the moment."

"Tell him to get his a_s_s over here right now. I'll meet him when I wanted to but I hate waiting." she ordered. Her command just now made Riggs face on the sideline distort.

'Hehe. Boss, you want the guy today but you won't meet him? O god, she still said she don't like waiting. Heck!' Riggs commented on his subconscious mind. Surely, Seraphina has an odd way of thinking.

After a pause, Seraphina finally speaks her final decision.

"Make him experience death for 14 days for the seven slaps. Make sure he'll experience **** more than 22 times for the 11 girls. Remember, you can crush every bit of his bones and skin but leave traces of his identity. That's the least we can do for the victims family." She paused, then turned her attention towards Mike. She spoke again as if she was giving Mike advice this time.

"Also, this is how you redeem yourselves in the family."

Seraphina said in one go. She doesn't want to waste her time, energy and dirty her hands anymore towards this insane person. Sensing that  Mike took him some time trying to absorb her words, she continued.

"Don't make me repeat myself." she warned --back with her emotionless tone. Mike jolted a little by her warning. Although he was frightened out of his wits, a question of reassurance was lingering on his mind for quite some time now. Before he knew it, the words already left his mouth.

"Who are you, really?"

Seraphina arc her brows towards the inquiring man. Mike was quite shocked by his words as well. Obviously, this woman seems someone on par or even higher in rank compared to Tito. His words just slip accidentally and did not mean to speak his mind to lessen his offense, alas, what done is done.

"You're not worthy. I've been kind enough to let you have second chances as well to redeem yourselves for your offense on the family. Do what I told you to do before Luciano disowns you and dismember your body."

"I apologize." Mike apologizes in a low voice -- audible enough for her to hear. He might not know her position in the family, but it's clear that this woman holds an important title and also might be Don Luciano's woman.

As she starts to walk away, as if she remembers something, Seraphina turns around.

"Ohh, also, give your brothers a proper funeral."

With her last note, Mike and his crew stood silently staring at those three's retreating back. Until they are gone, no one spoke any words aside from Victor Wang's screams of detest that filled the abandoned warehouse.

"Proper burial?" Mike mumbled bitterly. In their famiglia, although he hadn't seen it himself and just what he always hears, the head big boss would always prepare proper funeral ceremony for any fallen member of the family.

Since the moment they swore the family's oath, one of the things that are written in the omerta was: put the organization first before themselves and their own family.

Regardless, many of them either came from a decent family or they are orphans. Hence, they consider this organization their own kin.

Even though Mike was uncertain about his fact, it was said that the Don Luciano family had their own burial grounds.

They are not good people.

They commit unforgivable crimes.

However, it is still somewhat relieving to know that they have a place to rest when the time death comes.
