Episode 12

I made it to Banin's club, it looked like a pigsty, let's say he doesn't have much desire to do things right, his focus is prostitution and ours is entertainment, Banin is a damn Arab who knows we don't tolerate human trafficking, he was banned here, but rumors of girls having their virginities sold without permission are growing in our midst.

"Look who's gracing my humble establishment," he said.

"I have no patience for you, Banin, I'm looking for my fiancee, she was at the airport and your men were there too, if you touch her I'll end your life," I went straight to the point.

"Fiancee? The powerful Don lost his fiancee? I heard that the girl I bought to take her virginity was missing, but I didn't know she was your fiancee," he said, igniting in me the urge to kill him.

I took a step forward and decided to end this, but my brother quietly repeated in the background, "Stay calm, stay calm, if you kill him we won't find Sami."

"Listen here, bastard, if I find out you laid a hand on her, I'll kill you myself, you scumbag, I'll look at the cameras and if I find out you're with Samira I'll kill you," I said and stormed off.

"Do you really like her?" Fernando asked and I didn't respond, unsure of what to think.

As I was leaving in the car, I noticed an older man staring at me, I knew him, Olavo, his brother was expelled by Banin when he slept with his wife, Banin didn't kill him, but he destroyed the poor woman, he has the belief that women are always wrong, in fact, to him women are worthless.

I approached with the car and he discreetly drew closer, speaking softly, "Call me," and left.

"This guy knows about her, we need to be cautious, because if he's keeping her captive he can't suspect us," Fernando said.

Samira.

I woke up after a long nap and went down to the kitchen, the man was there on a laptop, talking to his brother and looking at me sternly.

"What's wrong?" I asked as soon as he hung up.

"Why didn't you tell me you were Don's fiancee, maybe I wouldn't have harbored you here," he was angry, so I quickly defended myself.

"I'm not anyone's fiancee, I slept with him once, he cheated on me and I don't want that," I said, sitting down and feeling my head spinning.

"Listen, one thing is true in all this, you can't run away from the mafia, we can't leave fate behind, if he chose you, he'll find you soon, Dante has Italy in his hands, if he doesn't already know you're here, he'll find out," he was categorical and I feared.

"I never wanted this and ended up running away," I was sitting when he brought me a snack.

"Eat, this is a 'x everything', it has everything in there, but it's delicious, you'll love it, and let's talk, I'll explain how I ended up here in Brazil."

I sat down and asked, "Julian, right, why did you leave Italy?" and he laughed.

"And how did you know I was from there?" he countered.

"I noticed your mannerisms and how you mastered the language, I knew by the way you do things here, an Italian would do the things you do," I spoke of his gestures and he smiled.

You're right, I am Italian, but I was deceived and had to flee to avoid death, Banin is a bastard, a rapist and abuser, his wife asked me for help to escape and I was going to help her, he killed her before that, he did it in front of me, he didn't kill me because I know one of his secrets and told him I was scheduled to spread the news," this time he had a different expression, anger in his eyes.

"Is your brother not at risk there?" I asked, concerned.

"No, he's clever, but he can't leave, Banin freed me when he took my place, Banin doesn't want to risk me revealing his secret so he keeps my brother close," he said, and it was impossible not to worry.

"Finish eating and let's go to the club, I want to show you everything, we'll leave in 2 hours, there are some clothes here that might be useful for you, I bought some dresses while I was out quickly," he said and I continued to eat.

I went upstairs to try on an outfit and when I came back down, he was already ready, Julian was a good friend and I agreed to go with him to the club.

No one has seen or heard of Samira, this unfortunate soul didn't even bother to listen to me, she just decided to run away.

I called Oliver, he is in Banin's hands, said he can't do anything, and would love to turn in the boss, but doing so would mean his brother would die - Fernando spoke and I felt like he knew something, but was afraid his brother would be hurt.

The time to talk to him will come, let's go home, as I have nothing else to do - he said and we went back home.

I wouldn't rest until I found her, that sadist Banin won't lay a hand on her.
