RoccoSienna breathed out sharply as she stood up with the help of Cara. "I need to use the bathroom. I didn't realize I needed your permission or perhaps you would like to help me change too?" she remarked. Yes, that was the Sienna I knew and loved. She was back!"You really are a bitch and here I am worrying about you," I said and Sienna smirked. I smirked back when she winced in pain as she took a step. But still, I offered her my help."Cara, go and slap him," Sienna ordered Cara. Cara shook her head and Sienna chuckled. "Fine, don't. I will slap him myself once I lose the sling," she muttered.Eventually, she got changed into shorts and a shirt. Changing into her shirt was and I quote, “fucking fun.” The doctor also did a check up and stated that Sienna was well enough to return home tomorrow as long as she rested properly."I am like Batman, aren't I? Fucking impossible to kill," Sienna said to the doctor who didn't dare laugh or even talk more than he had to. I must admit
EricMy heavy eyelids slowly flickered open, only to drink in the darkness that surrounded me. Was I even awake? The lights on the monitor reflected off the metal bed frame and I finally realized where I was and what had occurred. So I was alive. I had survived.I groaned, my muscles stiffening when I tried to move. Shit, I had been shot in the chest, and it hurt like a bitch. I rubbed my face, which was now covered in unkempt stubble. My arms… They felt heavy, and they were also wrapped."Are you awake?" Gabriel called out somewhere in the darkness. Suddenly, the light was switched on and I winced, blinking heavily as I tried to adjust to the brightness of it."Well, shit, you are awake," Gabriel said as he walked over to me. "Now, I can get out of this fucking place." He smiled. He didn't know how relieved I was to see his face and to hear his voice. I had been alone in the darkness for a long while. He still looked exactly the same. His brown curls were in an organized mess atop
EricTwo days later, the doctors finally allowed me to leave. Sienna wouldn't let me leave when I wanted to, so she stayed with me, knowing that I hated being in this place. I had been given orders of mandatory bed rest when I got home, which agitated me to no end. Boredom was an understatement compared to what I would face when I went home. Sienna and I were on the way home, and we were glad to be leaving this dreadful country. My mind began working out countless ways to torment Nikolai Smirnov. I wanted to dethrone him. To cease the existence of the Russian Mafia. His brother betrayed him dearly when he tortured us. There could be no peace treaty between us. It wasn't possible.I had convinced Sienna to let me go ahead with my plan. She didn't take a liking to my idea, but she also didn't try to persuade me otherwise. That was the beauty of her. She even said she could help and if not help, stand and look pretty while I shoved a poker so far up Nikolai’s ass that it would come out
EricWhen I woke up the next day, I could see that Sienna wasn't in bed. I picked up my phone and groaned when I saw the time. It was mid afternoon already. "Gabriel," I called out as I struggled to sit upright. He walked into the room and greeted me. "I need some help getting up." I sighed in defeat.He helped me to my feet and I quickly used the bathroom. I also took my time to shave my face and neaten up my hair. After taking a shower, I got dressed and settled back into bed, feeling exhausted.Gabriel was taking care of business affairs while I was unable to do so. Sean was also taking on more work, much to his dismay. It was only a matter of time before someone fucked up, though. I knew that Sean was a pussy when it came to dealing with people properly.I heard the soft patter of sneakers outside my door and watched the handle turn. It could only be Sienna. She didn't need an invitation nor did she care for one. I smiled as I looked at her. She was putting on a pair of denim sh
Eric Two months had passed now, and the days had been long and dull. I had been mostly confined to my bed, trying to heal as quickly as I could. Sienna didn't let me do much and instead, she handled some parts of my business with Sean. He was happy about that because Sienna took no shit and he loved hearing her bitch at the men, making them cower like dogs. She once called me, claiming that a man had called her a fucking slut. Suffice it to say I reprimanded that man greatly.I fixed my tie and shrugged on my black blazer. My injuries were much better if not fully healed. I had been fucking restless all this time, so today was the day that I would get back in the game. I brushed my freshly cut hair back and did the buttons of my cuffs. I felt much better now, and I couldn't stand doing anything all day. So, I had been planning. I simply needed to go and see a man for a little talk.As I looked down at my watch, which Sienna had gifted me, I could see that it was already late aftern
Eric Their mouths were open viciously, baring their sharp teeth which were capable of cutting through flesh as if it were paper. I halted and raised two fingers to my lips and blew out a very sharp whistle. The dogs immediately started to whine and back off. I took out my gun and shot at the dirt. The predators flinched and scattered with their tails between their legs. So much for having guard dogs.I approached the front door and I noticed that it was quiet. Much too quiet for my liking. I nodded silently at Gabriel who was beside me. He nodded back to me as he was aware of what was going on too. I raised my hand, my fingers curling to a fist, and knocked on the door."Fucking coward, won't you let me in?" I said, smirking as I held back a chuckle. I quickly stepped to the side of the door and just as I anticipated, it was shot to pieces. Bullets sprayed the door as wood flew everywhere. Nikolai was hiding behind serious gunpower. But it didn't matter to me. If I had to go throug
EricI counted six heads in the dark. Gabriel took a shot at the one closest to us and I shot another in his gut. The others started firing aimlessly, so I pushed ahead and kicked a man in the chest. I shot the back of his head when he bowed over. I ducked from the swing of a punch directed at me, then I shot the man in his chest and twisted my gun ahead before I shot another twice.I could feel a pang of slight pain in my chest, but the thrill of the fight gave me a kick of adrenaline. Another man lumbered forward and attempted to throw a punch at me. I grabbed his fist with my hand and twisted it. He groaned in agony as I continued to twist it."Come on, Eric," Gabriel called as he walked past me, ignoring the man I held onto. In the darkness, I could see a large dark stain across the back of his shirt. The wetness gleamed with the little moonlight that filled the hallway. "Have you been hit?" I asked after I had smashed the back of my gun into the man's head. He was immediately k
EricAfter landing in Italy, surprisingly it felt sort of like home now. I had been here so much that I' had grown used to the beauty of the place. I knew all the clubs and bars. Now, everyone also knew who I was. I was the American Mafia boss who was married to their Don. It was a dangerous alliance, and now, even thinking about her drove me crazy. And if I thought too much about her, about her body, I would begin to get hard."Gabriel, leave. You are relieved of duty," I said to my friend as he began to enter the SUV. He looked confused as he stopped in his tracks. "Really?" he asked. We had a conversation before about him being there for Cara because I knew that I would want to be there for Sienna if she ever carried our child one day in the near future hopefully. I nodded with a small smile on my lips. "Yes. Now get the fuck out of my face."He chuckled, and a grin appeared on his handsome face. I held out a hand and he shook it. "Don't be a stranger," I said, making him chuck
SiennaFEW YEARS LATER"Fucking hurry up, please!" I said to the maids who scrambled to set out the dining room. Only the best cutlery and crystal glasses were being used for the occasion. The table would be lined with a white cloth and red placemats. I walked around the room in a black dress which hugged my curves perfectly. Oh, shit, did we have enough wine? Why were we so last minute? Everything was just disorganised.Eric and I were hosting a dinner party and it was going to be so fucking good. We invited a lot of, mostly family. They would be here soon and I wanted things ready. As usual, Eric was avoiding the dining room entirely because he knew that I would be in a bitchy mood. I could understand wh, but Inwas not always moody. I picked up a glass in my hand, turned it over and placed it down when I saw it that was devoid of fingerprints.Suddenly, I felt two small hands grasp my legs tightly and I chuckled before I looking down. "You look very handsome, my little man," I
Sienna "Come on. Where is he? I want to meet my nephew," Sean said as he looked around in excitement. He was just like a fucking hyperactive little dog. I smiled at how excited he was. "This way. He is asleep, so shut the fuck up." I chuckled as I led both of them to the living room. Their eyes landed on Rocco and then at the bundle in his arms. I watched Sean gulp as he refrained from talking for once in his life. Arthur looked proud, and his posture relaxed noticeably. He would be my child's only grandparent, and I was grateful for that.They both walked over to see him. Rocco untucked Lorenzo slightly so that they could see his face. Their gazes lingered on him as they admired him. "He is tiny," Sean whispered."Babies tend to be small, idiot," Rocco said to him, chuckling. They were both so fucking stupid. "Congratulations again, Sienna. I hope you don't mind me saying, but it looks like he takes after Eric," Arthur said softly while turning to look at me.I nodded my head.
Sienna One month had passed now and I was enjoying life with my new little addition. Giving birth was incredibly painful, but it was definitely the best thing I had ever done in my entire life. I certainly didn't plan on getting pregnant, at least not so soon, but right now, I wouldn't wish it any other way.My body was still aching and recovering. I was resting. I hardly did any other thing, except for taking care of Lorenzo. I wanted to do everything. I wanted to feed him, change him and bathe him. I didn't want him to be given off to nannies and nurses like I was. He was mine and I would take care of him. He was so vulnerable, so small, and he needed me. I would always be there for him.So I was sitting on a sofa, in the warm but comfortable living room, breastfeeding my son. He had a ferocious appetite. I had to make sure I ate enough so that I would produce enough for him. I looked down at his beautiful head of hair. I brushed it so many times with my fingers, just feeling th
EricFucking hell. It was a boy. My son. Our son.My knees almost buckled as I watched the nurse taking him to be cleaned and weighed. My heart slowed down and I felt tears falling from my eyes. I let them fall as my heart swelled with happiness. "You did it!" I exclaimed, smiling down at Sienna. Her face held a gentle smile as she closed her eyes.The next hour was a blur. Sienna was checked over and she was now sleeping as she was very exhausted. The room was cleaned and I was now sitting on the cushioned chair beside her bed. I didn't know what time it was but I was fucking tired and wide awake at the same time.Shortly after, the nurse came back with a small, quiet bundle in her arms. In fear, I wasn't even breathing at all for a short moment. She smiled and told me about the baby's health. How he was strong and healthy. Perfect. She asked if I wanted to hold him and a single tear ran down my cheek. I nodded, unable to speak. Then she handed me the bundle, instructing me to make
Eric I was startled awake by Vincent who was yelling in my face. "What the fuck?" I yelled, my voice deep and husky. Why was this fucking ass here, and more so, why did he wake me up? "Why did you wake me?" I growled as I rubbed my heavy eyes. I squinted as I looked at the man who seemed panicked. When I looked across the bed and saw that Sienna wasn't there, my heart almost stopped."She told me to get you immediately," Vincent said, wide eyed, his throat bobbing. I didn't waste any time, pulling on my trousers and grabbing a shirt. As I followed Vincent upstairs, ducking my head slightly to avoid the low roof, I could hear some groans. I pulled on my shirt as I stepped out of the inner part of the yacht.I saw Sienna tightly holding onto the rail as she breathed jaggedly. I could see that her body was shaking. "What is it?" I asked her with worry. I had already forgotten my interrupted sleep by now. As I headed for her, I saw a small puddle of water beneath her feet, and her
EricI pulled at the collar of my shirt, trying to cool myself down, as I headed home after going out for a job. Italy was warmer than home but it was a nice change. The people here were very disciplined. I only had to mention Sienna's name and they would go white as a sheet. And all I could think was how I even manage to be so lucky to have her as my partner.I walked inside the house to see Sienna laying on the sofa with her legs raised on a pillow. I was surprised that she was resting. "And I said, ‘let the fucking bitch rot in hell,’ and apparently that was too harsh on the poor girl." She chuckled. I took a seat on the sofa opposite her, looking down at some faint bruises along my knuckles. Sienna was laughing into the phone, talking to Cara about how Rocco dumped his latest girlfriend.She ended the call after a while and looked at me sideways. "What?" she asked when I didn't speak. I was just looking at her, seeing her beauty, seeing her beneath it all. "Let's go out," I sai
Eric"I understand. Do you think I sent them?" Harrison remarked. "I did not. I do not have plans which involve killing either one of you. That would be outrageously stupid of me and tell me, do I look stupid to you?" Harrison continued. Who would willingly wager a war between two Mafias where both sides were as formidable as each other? Not Harrison, not I and not Sienna either. The Russian Mafia was different. They had been really stupid to think they would dare Sienna and I and actually go scot free?“He is telling the truth. His body language is sincere," Sienna said to me in Italian, and she looked into my eyes briefly. "I believe so too," I replied in Italian too.Harrison cleared his throat and we looked back at him once more. "We are leaving now. We appreciate the honesty," I said as I stood up. "Come on, Eric. Let's play one game of poker. Do this for old times sake," Harrison said, smirking. I knew that he was still fucking mad at the fact that I beat him the last time w
EricShe blew out a breath of air and waited. It was only a few more minutes before Edward arrived.I greeted him, happy to see my friend again. "I am very glad Gabriel was... well, not dead," Edward said with a chuckle. "I am glad about it too. Now, can we please go inside?" Sienna spoke up. Perhaps she was eager to meet the man or maybe she needed the bathroom, who knew? Edward caught her eye and glanced down at her stomach which carried the next Mafia boss. And he or she would be the greatest. "Certainly. It's nice to see you, Sienna," he said as he reached out for her hand. She shook his hand, much to Edward’s disappointment. He wanted to kiss the back of it, but that job was strictly reserved only for me."Let's go and beat the shit out of him." Sienna chuckled, before she walked up to the door in her white sneakers. Edward and I looked at each other, completely unfazed as we kept on walking up to the door. Harrison was expecting us, so there was no doubt that he would put o
Eric When I looked across the spacious private plane, I saw Sienna taking a nap. She lay sprawled across two large leather seats. I placed a thick blanket over her. She was apparently bored as fuck and fucking tired of my remarks.I couldn't believe it. When I lost Gabriel it was like a part of me was missing. I didn't realize how much he impacted my life until he was gone. He truly was my best friend, and a brother to me. Fucking hell. And Sienna brought him back. She also mended the emptiness I felt. She was my world. I looked at her as she rested. I wouldn't change her for anything.I picked up my phone and held it to my ear after I dialed a number. "That better not be the fucking bitch," Sienna mumbled with a yawn as she stretched her arms."That was a quick nap." I smiled. She looked at me, her eyes looking damn mischievous. She shook her head at me and stood up, holding onto the seat. "Edward, hello. As you are aware, we are meeting Harrison as soon as we land. I would app
