Chapter: A damn decision AVERY’s POV I looked at both their faces and I could not control my heavy laughter. I laughed to the extent I wheezed. “Mummy, why are you laughing? You don't know what we got, yes?” “Logan, how bout you both tell me what you got, yes?” He smiled and looked at Camila. “Fine, Logan, give me some drum rolls..” She placed the bags on the table and then; “TADA!!! Look what we got for you mummyyyy!!! Ahhhh!!!” Logan screamed and I was forced to stand up. I dragged the package off Camila’s hands and it was a. Dress. A Dress? “A dress? Camila, why would you get me a dress? For what?” I was getting all emotional. I have always been the soft type, so things easily get to me. “Why don't you put it on first, and then I might answer your question, huh?” Logan was jumping out of happiness. “Camila..” “Put it on” “I will wait outside mummy, but call me once you are done, alright?” He said and ran outside the room with his tiny hands flying in the air. I pulle

Chapter: CEO’s party SILVA’s POV (THUNDER RUMBLING) I looked up at the sky and shook my head. I think it's going to rain. Such annoying weather. “Silva, tell me who is going to take the crown then? Do I have more chances than that bastard?” He exclaimed, his voice cold. “Well, the votes will determine that, but for now I have my doubts about you winning” “Why? Tell me why! I will kill anyone who is against my reign” “Easy now tiger, easy. The Don Corleone holds the final say. And I am sure you know by now that he hates your guts, right? So why not lay low for a while and not cause any more trouble, huh?” He growled on the phone and I could picture his cold arrogant eyes in his voice. “Fine, I will wait. I was planning on going for a little vacation. To visit an old friend, but I guess that will be after the votes” “I can assume who that ‘friend’ is. One advice Paolo, for your best interest, do not touch a hair on Axell’s head or you will lose yours. The families are keeping an eye o

Chapter: The family SOMEWHERE FAR IN NEW MEXICO (INAUDIBLE CHATTERING) THE DON’s POV “In this meeting today, we are going to talk about the fate of our family. The family we built from scratch. We can not let it fall like this” One of the family members, Thiago, blurted out. While I stared at them from my high table. “Don Corleone. I would like to say that this is a trivial matter and should not be given so much attention. It is simple. We pass on the family to the next candidate, and he will do the job” “Shut your mouth! I see he has bought you too, right?” Another person screamed and they all began to raise their voices at each other. “That is enough! That is enough!” They all kept quiet immediately and Immediately I stood up. They all did too, and bowed their heads. “Showing respect is not only by bowing down your heads to me, but also by giving me some accords and regards. I am right here, and y’all can not act like adults. And to you, Silva, this is not a trivial matter and sho

Chapter: The gentleman CAMILA’s POV I kept calling Avery’s line, but she never answered. I was sweating nonstop, and I just hoped that he would leave. He could see me, I mean my glass is not tinted. He pulled the mask off his face, and I was mesmerized by how good he looked. Oh, my God, he was an angel. He had ear piercings and used studs. He had piercing green eyes. More like ocean eyes. Wait, Camila. Simply because he looks good does not mean he is a good person. Do not be fooled. I joined both hands together and begged him to go away from inside the car. He looked a little bit hurt, and then he walked away to the other side of the road and stood there. I watched him wave at him, and carefully I came out from the car and stood there staring at him. “Hello, my name is Bryson. Nice to meet you” He screamed and I was stunned by his confidence. It was midnight and he was screaming just so I would hear him. I waved at him, without saying a word back. “I am your neighbor” He pointed at the

Chapter: My love, My choice. CAMILA’s POV Of course, Avery warned me about coming to see Travis, but I didn't listen. Do I regret it, yes, and now I just want to go home. I stood up from the bed, paced around the room for a few minutes then I concluded to leave not minding the time. I had my car, so all I had to do was drive, right? So I thought to myself before I barged out of the room. I saw Travis sitting on the couch downstairs with his belt in his hands. He wore only pants and was shirtless. I had to control myself from looking at his body while walking down the stairs. “And where are you off to by this time of the night?” “I am going back to my house” I said without slowing down. I kept walking to the door without looking at him or stopping. “Your house? Do you have one? Oh, you mean your friend’s mysterious house, right? You know I still doubt the tale you told me about that house. Still sounds like a fantasy story” When I got to the door I pulled it but noticed it was locked with the ke

Chapter: A spy in the house AVERY’s POV Logan pointed at Axell who kept on smiling at him. “What? You must be tired, Logan. Come on” I rolled my eyes at Axell then I pulled Logan back into the house, and placed him on the bed for a little nap. I peeked through the window to see if they had left, and surprisingly they were still there. Axell was still peeking and he caught my eyes. He chuckled and I quickly shut the window and then used the curtains also. LUCRECIA’s POV Where did she put it? This woman will be the end of me! I told her not to take it away from where I put it, but of course, she had to act like the most caring woman on earth. Where was she when I needed her the most? And now she suddenly cares. I moved to her room and saw her kneeling. She was praying, and I had to respect that. When she stood up, I quickly tapped her shoulders. “Are you done? Now where is my passport, and I am not joking!” “Why are you trying to ruin your life, my child?” “Don’t ever call me that! I am not
