The Mafia Contract Series

The house is in darkness and the only people who remain are five twisted souls and one very special guest.

Emma was moved back to her dorm, and she was happy to go when we explained our time at Rockwell was done. Flynn made up some story about Winter that satisfied her curiosity, and we have one night only to formulate the plan to find my sister and set us all free.

The candles burn all around and it looks like a fucking devil worship club, and we sit in a circle with our special guest and prepare to change our destinies.

I say in a voice devoid of any emotion.

“This is our final chance to agree on the plan. If you are in, you must sacrifice your heart.”

All around me the solemn faces of my closest friends in the world stare at me with the dark look of the damned.

They each nod as I look at them in turn and when my gaze settles on Baron, he nods with a determination that settles any doubt I ever had of asking him.

He will be a worthy addition to our club because he has a power none of us understand. The man on the edge looking in and I know in my soul he will never let us down.

“Membership is painful. Do you understand the consequences of that?”

My voice is cold, emotionless and destroyed and one by one, they agree.

I nod to Flynn, who reaches behind him and as we all remove our shirts and toss them behind us, I take a deep breath.

“Then this begins. One by one, we sacrifice our hearts and join in blood as our commitment to Club Mafia. Malik, Angelo, Flynn, Ivan and Alessandro. Mafia. Baron sitting aside on the edge looking into the pit of hell.”

I’m not sure if we can even go through with the commitment ceremony, but Flynn doesn’t seem to have the same reservations and stares at the group with the mad eyes of a psychopath and grips his blade in his hand. Shaped like a claw, he rests it against his skin and growls, “I fucking pledge myself to this club against all others. My allegiance is to Club Mafia first and foremost and everything I do in life is for my brothers over my own family.

We are family now and to show my commitment, I sacrifice my heart.”

The air is tense as he rests the blade against his skin and grins like a demented maniac. We watch as he presses the blade into his chest and laughs as the blood spills like the river of hell down his chest. He doesn’t even flinch as he drags it down his skin, just above his heart and as his drops of blood spill onto the contract we will each sign with blood, it gives me my own strength to see this through.

Handing the contract to Ivan, who sits to his left, he wipes the blade and hands it to our brother without even flinching.

The tattooed savage who is next in line utters the same words, read from the bloodied sheet and runs the blade down his own skin with all the aggression and the madness of hell. He roars as the blade slashes his skin and then grins as he signs his own name on the contract with his blood and then passes it to me.

All eyes focus on me as I steel myself and read the words on the page and make my own solemn vow. This club has to mean everything to its members because when you sell your soul to the devil, he keeps it forever. No matter what happens in the future, we work as a team bound by blood and common purpose.

We will leave tomorrow and become the enemy within, grabbing our empires from unsuspecting masters. As I repeat the same words, I just see my sister in my heart. Alone and afraid, set up for the cruellest of falls. I don’t believe for a second that she betrayed us and whatever her reasons for leaving the way she did, they were done to protect every single one of us.

I slash the blade through my skin and drag three rivers of pain. My heart is clawed out and will never feel emotion again. There will be no tattoos with our club insignia. This needs a different level of commitment and as my blood joins my brothers, I am re-born an even bigger bastard than before.

Malik is next and his low voice slices through the silence as he pledges his heart and then Alessandro almost snatches the blade and slices his skin in one abrupt move. He growls the words and hands the blade to Baron, who studies it before reciting the same mantra spoken by every last one of us. As the final member pledges his blood, the candles burn with the hottest flames of hell. Souls united in damnation and God help anyone who gets in our way.

EXACTLY ONE HOUR LATER, our guests arrive, and we throw the biggest party Rockwell Academy has ever seen. We are out of control and don’t care about the consequences of that because tomorrow we bid farewell to our freedom and fall in line.

Malik will return to Dubai and Ivan to Russia. Flynn heads to California and Alessandro to Boston. I’m heading to New York, where I will be the first to set our plan in motion. World domination the only way we know how.

Power by marriage and our angels have been chosen already. Women who don’t know what’s in store for them and all selected for maximum effect.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Married to mafia and sentenced to a life of sacrifice. No love, no affection and no shit because God can only help those women because they are the sacrifices needed to form an empire.

Club Mafia will combine the most powerful families in the land, all with one ultimate goal. Bringing down the men who made us in their image.

Setting my sister free and taking control of our own lives.

This is it.

Let the games begin.
