Friend and Foe
For a solid five minutes, all Elle did was cry. At some point she even lost track of exactly why it was that she was currently sitting in her office bawling her eyes out.
When she felt Gio's arms wrap around her she leaned into the touch. Her body going boneless against his. It was as though all of the strength had been zapped from her, leaving nothing behind but a crying, quivering mess.
Celeste, was the Red Don.
When Elle thought of the Red Don, she pictured the boogieman. Something that crawled from the shadows, dark and damp. No easily identifiable features. Just something that had escaped from nightmares and had descended upon the earth to wreak havoc.
