Forbidden Love: My Daddy's Best Friend

Forbidden 221

The past few weeks have been awful, but I’m hopeful that today things turn around. I mean, they have to right? Daisy is better, we know who the mole is, and from her screams last night, Calix is no longer been an ignorant ass.

So today, we get our mole and I will make him speak. Getting washed I can’t help but smile, I walk out and cook, the guards on the door watching.

“You lot can wait outside. We’re discussing business today. Troy, you stay. Then what they need to know you can tell.” I watch as they nod and the guards leave. Troy stays standing quietly, his eyes fixed ahead.

As I’m just finishing up cooking I hear them come down. I carry the plates through and see Daisy. She looks happy, probably happier than she has ever been, I’m glad things are going ahead now. Troy stays fixed with his eyes forward.

“What?” His head shakes. He nods towards Daisy. Why won’t he speak? I look at Daisy. “Daisy?” I look at her, and she begins at conversation. I watch as Troy takes out his phone and sends a message. Marcello and Calix not missing the looks we’re passing. Troy shakes his head, stopping them from asking.

I continued talking to Daisy about her favourite colour and if she wanted her room that colour. I read the message just in time to see Marcello and Demitri freeze. My eyes scan around.

Okay, new plan. We’re going out, fuck knows where, shopping, something. While out we will get the place checked.

I read the message from Calix and nod.

“So, shopping little birdie?” I smile at Daisy, we can’t talk business. We can’t talk about shit, apparently, Ryan said he was to take over last night, so he’s been in. No doubt placing a bug or something to listen

1. in.

So we sit like we normally do but ignore all business. Which isn’t good, I wanted to get Ryan now, today. Not later. After breakfast we leave, take the closest guards with us, and have someone sweep the apartment. We take my little birdie shopping, just to distract her and so then we can talk. We spent over two hours shopping before getting, the all–clear.

Going in we send out the guards. I watch as Calix sits, his eyes on Troy.

“Look, he said you messaged telling him to take over. I figured I would let him and then you can use whatever it is. Plus, me fighting him on it would mean he knew I knew.

“He’s right Cal, can’t kill a man for that.” He can’t, Daisy looks at us confused.

“Okay, Troy, watch Daisy. No one in, no one out. We will grab Ryan and sort things and get answers.” Calix stands, kissing Daisy on the check before we leave. Walking to the car park, Ryan stands there guarding the entrance. He watches as we walk towards him.

I stop, turning to the locked door that leads to my room. I unlock it, smiling when I see his eyes widen. He knows we know. He goes to run but Marcello grips his neck and throws him back towards me. He gets

up and goes to run again, Calix this time grabbing him. His fist connects with Ryan’s face before he throws him through the door.

We follow, watching as Calix drags him up the stairs to my room. There are no words spoken. To be fair, I would be surprised if anyone spoke right now. Calix looks like death, his eyes darkened, and he is ready for blood.

Unlucky for Ryan, it’s his blood that Calix wants. I want to play with him, but I don’t think I will get to, it seems like Calix is finally letting down the veil of darkness and getting his hands bloody again. Calix pushes him down, fastening his hands to the table.

“Now talk, everything.” He doesn’t even ask a specific question, which shows he isn’t about to be played. Ryan looks between us, he needs to speak, it might be less painful if he does. He stays quiet, keeping his mouth shut and I tut. Being one of our guards, I thought he was smarter, apparently not. I watch as Calix moves, chopping off one of his fingers. Ryan screams and thrashes against the table. Slowly his scream turns to sob.

“Okay.” His word is quiet. “I was approached. Asked if I was willing to send back information on you guys. I don’t know who it goes to. It all gets sent encrypted. They wanted to know how close you were to Daisy. If you have given in to her. They wanted to know your usual routines, security, and such.”

“Who?” Calix places the blade against his finger.

“I know nothing else, I swear.” His words are loud, but not convincing enough, I watch as the blade slams down and he loses another finger. Swearing and calling us devils, which just makes me smile.

“We’re devils, so you should be aware, that devils never stop. Never quit, and don’t burn in the inferno we just walk through it, now speak.”

My words taunt him and he nods, he looks like he might puke, or pass out, either isn’t good.

“They are using Daisy.”

“We know that already!” Calix’s anger grows and the knife swings removing another finger. Ryan screams again, trying to break free, it’s a useless attempt to escape, my restraints aren’t toys.

“I don’t mean just by taking her and hurting her. She agreed. She met someone at the clinic and agreed to help them take you down. She agreed to help.”

I shake my head, and Calix’s anger grows. She wouldn’t.

“Really, or is that a fucking lie?” Calix moves holding his hand down. “If I’m not convinced, you lose your hand.” He seethes.

“I swear, that’s what that message was for. To get you out so she could get into your office and get the stuff they needed.” I watch as Calix. swings the sword, one clean swipe and his hand is off. I watch him pass out.

“Cauterise him. Then we go get her.” Calix’s eyes are full of hate, I walk to Ryan and burn his wound, ensuring he doesn’t bleed out before we get back. Moving I wrap more chains around him and strap him. down so he has no chance of escaping.

“Box it.” Calix throws the hand at me. Nodding I place it in a box, and he takes it, walking out.

“Erm, who are we sending a warning to?” I look at Marcello confused, usually, we box a body part as a warning.

“Cal?” Marc rushes after him as I follow. “Cal!” Marcello screams and

he stops, turning to face us. “What are you going to do?” Marcello looks at him hurt.

“Show her what her future is.” I watch as Calix marches off, Marcello standing confused. As much as I feel I love Daisy, I’m not sure I should. stop Calix. Marcello looks at me, waiting for me to explain.

“For a smart fucker, you’re slow. Her future, the box, he’s going to give her it.” Even I think that is fucked up, Marcello rushes after him, but it‘ s too late. As we reach him I hear Daisy’s screams. Her body jumps. away from the box.

“Cal.” Hell, it isn’t even confirmed yet. “Words, you always tell us, if there’s no links or proof we wait. No Action!” He just fucking forgot that. I thought he would at least question her first.

I see Daisy standing shaking. Troy looks at us confused.

“Sit.” Calix points to the table, and Daisy looks at us. I want to save her, I want to cuddle her, but if she did, if he isn’t lying. I turn my eyes. away from her. Not wanting to look at her.

“No!” Her shout is loud, and I smile, I shouldn’t feel happy hearing her fight back right now. I do though, slowly she is finding her voice, now isn’t the time to though.

“Daisy, sit please,” Marcello speaks now in a calm tone, and I hear her sit. I turn and look at her. The tables have turned, and that would usually be Cal trying to calm things.

“Do you like my gift?” Calix leans closer to her, I see her hurt, her heart once again breaking because of him, but she deserves it.

“Who did you meet? What did you steal from the offices?” Marcello speaks, and she looks at him, and I see it. She fucking did it. I watch

the tears fill her eyes.

“I will kill you.” My words barely pass my teeth.

“I’m sorry! I didn’t do it!” She screams and looks at us.

“Didn’t do what, meet someone, plan to fuck us over?” Calix bans on

the table, and I just stare, she was going to work against us. I hope Calix takes her blood for it.
