All Chapters of Dooming the mafia devil : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

RAPHEAL The middle aged detective meticulously signed off some papers and handed the file to his assistant who took them out. Contrary to his cold demeanour when he set his eyes on me, he had turned out to be rather understanding and patient with me. “That's all.” he flashed me a warm smile which I returned with all pleasure. “The shares would be put up for sale by the end of today. You can decide to buy them again if it pleases you.” He breathed. “But like I said, it's value would be slashed twice given the circumstances surrounding it.” “I understand.” I replied, and offered a handshake. “You have worked hard.” “It's my calling.” He replied. Straightening, I took my car keys and files and headed out. I met Serafina by the hallway. “Hey.” She greeted softly, while I embraced her. “How was it?” I sighed in relief. I couldn't believe it was finally over. “Things are finally looking up.” She smiled, taking note of my counternance. “Co

RAPHEAL Such fake love and welcome greetings that filled my insides with disgust, was all we could get upon arrival at the party that had already begun in full swing. But it didn't matter, as long as I had Serafina with me. My eyes slowly combed through the crowd for my mom but she was not in sight. Although I figured she wouldn't attend, not seeing her tightened a knot in my chest. We both walked to our designated table and I couldn't help but notice Serafina’s sudden sulking. “Sera?” I called but she was too lost in thoughts to even take her seat which I pulled out for her. “Sera?!” My voice rose. “Serafina?” I near screamed before she jolted. I shook my head. “What's wrong?” I asked with knotted brows. “Ohh.. no..” “Don't even think about lying.” I cut in. She bit her lip and bent her face. “I'm fine, Rapheal.” Her voice quavered. “No, you are not.” I made to approach her but some old hags beat me to it. I recognized the

SERAFINA When it dawned on me that I had lost all sense of feelings in me and that they had been replaced by an eternal feeling of numbness, was when everyone scampered for safety in the temple, fearing for their lives hence they fell into the hands of Marionette and incurred her unforgiving wrath. Everyone knew better than get on her bad side. Everyone except me. So that morning, when the normally serene temple was suddenly replaced by chaos, I knew I had tempted her again. But I was too numb to feel any emotions. “Where the hell is she?” I heard her voice yell from the hallway downstairs. “Serafina!” I was supposed to run. But I didn't want to.. “Serafina!!” She yelled again, followed by the sound of a crashing glass. She had probably ruined one of the sculptures placed at the gallery. A frantic knock echoed through my door. “Serafina!” Ciara whispered. “Holy fucking Mary.” “Open this door!” She whispered again. “You need to get of here!”

SERAFINA “Serafina!!” His voice resonated louder, as Ciara and I raced to the down floor. “Please Sera I need to talk to you! I promise I won't take much of your time please. I just..” the breaking of his voice twisted something in me. “How..” Ciara trailed off, wearing her shock on her face. “He's probably dead.” Someone muttered behind us. Pretty much everyone had gathered at the sound of his voice. The temple wasn't visible to humans, except they died some sort of painful death and was supposedly lost on the path to the afterlife. There in, the temple becomes visible to them and they come to seek help. In most occasions, they usually come bearing a grudge at the news of their death, and their trespassers are assigned to special missioniers. At least, eighty in every hundred task came from these spirits, while the rest were special orders from the heavens. Like Rapheal. There were off situations at time, like when someone cursed them so despe

RAPHEAL “What do you mean?” I demanded, holding my gaze against his unsettled face. I was gathering ever single restraint in me. “I don't know…” he hesitated again. “Rapheal, please I need you to calm down.” “But the temple..” I chipped in, ignoring the news he just announced. “Serafina is there.” “Turns out it's a fake address.” He sighed. “It never existed.” My eyes narrowed. “Is this some kind of prank?” “I understand how you feel but we have to be..” “Be what Ruben?” I queried. “Am I supposed to leave her in there?” “You know where she is?” Is this some kind of joke? “The temple of course!!” I yelled with thin patience. “Look Ruben, I know you are concerned about me but this isn't the time to make silly jokes.” “I should be saying that same thing to you.” He replied. “I just said the temple doesn't exist. The adress miss Ciara gave us is a fake. There is nothing like that in this whole wide world.” He wasn't joking. “So where do you
