The Daughter Of The Mafia Boss
Chapter 26

-Violet, why don't you go home and get some rest, remember that you just got out of the clinic a few days ago and you haven't even had proper rest. -Mother, that's not necessary.

-Yes it is... you need a shower, look at all those clothes full of blood. We'll stay here.

Violet thought about it and although she didn't want to leave, she knew she needed a change of clothes and possibly some sleep. Staying there wouldn't achieve anything anyway, they weren't allowed to see Liam so the best thing to do was to go home. -He stands up after saying goodbye to his mother.

-Violet," Lucia takes her hand to stop her, "Thank that guy, the one you like. If it wasn't for him, my Liam would be dead.

-The one who...? forget it, I'll never see him again.

He says goodbye to his sister to leave the hospital, takes his mother's car and goes home with only one thing on his mind, that idiot Dylan.

As night fell and after a well-deserved rest, Violet received news about her brother-in-law's condition. He was out of danger, her brother Reece got a large amount of blood for Liam so with a transfusion the young man was able to regain his strength. Lucia would not leave her husband's side, so her mother had gone to the house to get some clothes and food.

She was going to visit them, but then she thought she had some work to finish. For that reason she picked up a few things, took the keys of a new car that her father had assigned her, a nova. It was fast and best of all armoured. Violet slipped out of the house without her mother noticing, fortunately her father and uncle were not there to stop her and of course the guard at the door was not going to stop her... She went out the door at full speed ready to do what she should have done a long time ago.

He had been taken all day by the whole university thing, with so many investigations the cops wouldn't let a single professor go trying to replace out what the hell had happened on the premises, even he was curious to replace out who was behind it all. Who would want to destroy a university, for what purpose? Damn, it was late and he was so tired of giving statements. But at last he was released from that damned martyrdom, maybe he had nothing to do with it, or so he thought!

He opens the door of his flat, the gloom of the apartment welcomes him, which makes him feel even more exhausted. He throws the keys on the table, slides the lock on the door and then turns on the light, but in doing so Dylan remains as he was. The barrel of a gun is pointed at his body from a fairly close distance. He drops the briefcase in his hand to the floor, then licks his lips.

-You took your time getting here.

-What are you doing? -He asks deadly serious.

-You must know that by now.

-Not really." He frowns without moving from his spot.

-It's not too hard to guess, I've come to assassinate you," He removes the safety from the gun.

Why did she want to kill him, was her jealousy out of control, she really was completely crazy, that woman, but... with a demon, she looked so sexy with that gun in her hands.

-Violet, have you lost your mind?

-If you don't die by my hand, you'll die by the hand of my father, who has already sentenced you to cease to exist.

-Are you really going to murder me?

She blinked once at that question, flattening her lips, for a fraction of a second Dylan sensed doubt, but quickly noted that she was coming to her senses. He tightened his grip on the weapon as he clenched his jaw. -Yes, I will.

-Violet." His voice softens as he takes a step towards her.

-Don't move," he warns.

Why do you want to do that? Did your brother-in-law die and you blame me for it?

-He was saved, but I'm here because you're a damn bastard that I want to disappear so I don't have to..." The young woman remains silent, looking down at the ground. It doesn't matter anymore.

What was she hiding, and why the hell was she blushing, the only explanation was that she... Could it be possible, it was up to her to replace out?

-You don't want to do this, do you?

-Shut up! You don't know anything about what I feel or want.

Dylan watched as she put her finger on the trigger, the gun had a silencing cylinder. If she killed him right then and there, his neighbours wouldn't even know.

-You're acting out of anger, you can't come to my house and try to kill me.

-I'm not trying, I'm going to do it," he answers with conviction.

-Violet, listen," He raises both hands as he takes a step towards her, but then the young woman fires the gun, hitting the door behind Dylan's back.

-I told you not to move, I'm not playing Dylan, I know how to use a gun.

The teacher goes away lowering his hands at the same time. He releases the air and then bites his lips. He realized that Violet wasn't playing, she had gone to his house to kill him. And then, why did that mi3rda bother him so much?

-You'll be sorry for playing with me, for lying to me. After I murder you, I'm going to look for that damned fiancée of yours and hurt her so much that she'll wish she'd never been born.

-Are you jealous? -She smirks at the irony of the situation. Then she shoots once more but this time she hits a lamp - F**k, Violet.

-Don't say that shit again.

-All right, then finish what you came for and get out.

She takes the gun, swallows dryly, getting ready to shoot the man. But then why the hell didn't she do it, f**k, did she really like this man so much, was she in love with him, her breathing became heavy and her heart wouldn't stop thumping in her chest. Dylan took her chance, she was thinking hard, it was more than clear that she didn't want to kill him and the reason was obvious. So he quickly pounced on Violet grabbing the gun before she could do anything crazy. He threw it away from both of them to keep them both safe, there was no telling if either could get seriously hurt.

-Nooooo," she shouted, struggling.

But Dylan was stronger and taller than her, he easily disarmed her. He turned Violet around, the girl stood with Dylan on her back while he held her with his arms.

-Stay still! -He whispers in her ear.

-Let go of me, you bastard.

-No.

-I'll murder you.

-I have better plans.

She looked sideways at Dylan, she wasn't willing to leave him for that idiot. As best she could she punched the professor's stomach and with that she freed herself, turning around with her knee she hit the man's face.

Dylan fell to the ground as he cleaned his mouth with his tongue, the slight taste of metal that he perceived on his palate indicated that the blow had been stronger than he felt, he looked at the brunette who was desperately looking for his weapon. He wasn't going to let her do that, that game was fun. He smiled as he stood up and went after Violet, grabbing her by the waist just as she was about to reach for the gun.

-Come here, you spoiled little brat.

-I'm not a goddamn child, you idiot, you imbecile, you brute, let go of me now," she demands annoyed.

-You make it funnier," she laughs loudly.

Violet gets angrier when she hears him mocking her, but she was angrier at herself for not having had the courage to shoot him when she had the chance. All this confirmed only one thing, dammit, she was in love with Dylan Dallas. She needed to get out of that flat as soon as possible, she couldn't... she couldn't kill him, damn it, that voice inside her exclaimed, she was a disappointment, she didn't deserve to carry the Morgan name.
