Lexi's POV.

The surprise on my face switched to a hard glare. He had a smile on, which infuriated me. What the hell was he doing here? Did he not get the memo that I wanted nothing to do with him?

โ€œLexi, who is it?โ€ Mum asked from the dining room.

โ€œUmmโ€ฆit's no one mumโ€ฆโ€ before I could complete my statement, he cut me off.

โ€œIt's your new neighbor, ma'am. I come bearing gifts!โ€ He shouted, making sure his voice was heard in the whole house.

โ€œWhat the hell do you think you're doing?โ€ I asked in a whisper, gritting my teeth.

He shrugged, โ€œBringing my new neighbors flowers.โ€ He said innocently. But I knew he was only faking it.

โ€œLook, whatever game you're playing here, Iโ€™m not interestedโ€ฆโ€ I was once again cut off, by my mother this time.

โ€œAnd who is this new neighbor of ours?โ€ Mum asked as she stood next to me. I bit the inside of my cheek, hating myself at that moment.

โ€œHi. I'm Mason, I live just across the street.โ€ He said, smiling as though he was some kind of saint.

    Lexi's POV.Good thing Mason had left, it was as though I could finally breathe again.I was in my parentsโ€™ bedroom, sitting on the chair while Mum tucked Dad into bed. He had fallen asleep almost as soon as Mason left. That old man doesn't stress himself.Lucky for me, Mason did not tell them about our relationship. He had only told them that we attended the same college and might have known each other.Of course, I denied ever knowing him and I was glad he played along.As Mum finished tucking Dad in, she sat on the edge of the bed. She tapped the space next to her and I switched my sitting place.โ€œIt's good we now have a neighbor. Now we won't feel all alone.โ€ Mum said as I sat.A frown creased my eyebrows, โ€œMum! You are not lonely!โ€™ I retorted defensively.โ€œBut at least now we would have someone other than the nannies to always talk to.โ€ She said. โ€œYour father seems to like him.โ€ She added.I remained silent but deep within me, I was seething with rage. I could not blame my parent

    Lexi's POV.My mouth hung open, my eyes were as wide as saucers and I could feel blood leaving my face.What did I just hear? Was I hearing correctly? No, it could not be. I must have had a hearing disorder when I collapsed. No no no, this thing I was hearing from the doctor could not be true! It just couldn't.I glanced at the paper in my hand again, furrowing my brows as I went through it once more. I read it as though it was some kind of text written in a strange language.But it was English! It was written in fucking English that I was pregnant!โ€œWhaโ€ฆdoctorโ€ฆthis isโ€ฆimpossible!โ€ I stuttered, my lips quivering.I stretched the paper back to him, my hands trembling. Blood had drained from my being that the paper felt heavy in my hand.โ€œThis is impossible!โ€ I repeated, like it was some kind of mantra.I could not accept it. In fact, it must not be possible.โ€œBut, Lexiโ€ฆit's your test resultโ€ฆโ€ the doctor said but I cut him off.โ€œNo it's not! It can't be mine. Doctor, this is not my test

    Leonardo's POV.I pushed the gun against his jaw, pressing it hard against him.โ€œTell me where the boat is,โ€ I demanded, my voice reeking of danger.Nelson groaned and whimpered, his lips quivering. He shook his head frantically, โ€œIโ€ฆI don't know what you're talking aboutโ€ฆplease, boss!โ€ He cried.I sighed. Do I always have to go through this with everyone I need information from?โ€œPerhaps, this would trigger your memory.โ€ I backed up and shot his right foot. It was a silent gun so it was only his loud scream that echoed in the garage.โ€œThe last boat at the docks had been missing since two weeks ago when there was an attack, where is it?โ€ I said, pressing the gun back to his jaw.I had discovered that one of the boats that delivered the cargos two weeks ago had been stolen after the attack. Grayson and I had pieced together that the attackers had most likely used the boat to ship the stolen cargo to another location.Now, the Morano family had a specific boat dealer, and that was Nelson

    Leonardo's POV.โ€œArgh!โ€ I groaned, feeling pain stabbing at my lower belly. But that was not what I was focused on.Some kind of bomb had been laced on the road, causing my car to crash. I could feel my blood running to my brain with the way I was sitting upside down, trapped in the car.I looked out the window, seeing nothing but shrubs and grasses. I had been thrown off the tarred road. The explosion must have hit hard.There was no time to analyse my situation. I stretched my arm as far as I could for the compartment but I just could not reach. I was stuck in my seat.โ€œArgh!โ€ I grunted, stretching harder.Something caught my attention from the reflection of my side mirror.I looked outside through the passenger โ€˜side window. There was a long shadow there and it was moving!โ€œShit!โ€ I cussed as I struggled to reach for the compartment. I stretched as hard as I could, forcing my shoulder bones to snap.โ€œArgh!โ€ I groaned but ignored the pain and stretched more. Finally my hand touched

A customer needs to be served!โ€ I heard Brody's irritating voice through the loud booms of music.I scoffed as I made my way to the counter to collect a tray of exotic alcohol, not forgetting to shoot the disgusting manager a glare.โ€œTo the Exclusives. Mind you, these ones like โ€˜em slender.โ€ Brody said with a snicker and I rolled my eyes.I weaved myself through the crowd of drunk and lust driven people in a practiced manner. Even though it was still early in the night, this casino was already almost full to the brim.One of the reasons why it was the best casino club in the city.I went up to the Exclusive lounge, where the richest amongst the rich were. Contrary to the Gaming Hall, a fine serenade was being played, adding to its posh tranquillity.I spotted a group of men sitting behind a grandiose ceramic table. They all oozed of power and dangerous authority.However, my stomach churned the moment I saw him. They called him โ€œTerrore de Lucaโ€.

Look,โ€ I said and twirled on the spot, displaying my feminine frame. Mrs Kimberly now had a skeptical look on her face. I sighed, expecting a not so good response from her.โ€œYou do fit his description well,โ€ she remarked and a flicker of hope kindled in me.โ€œButโ€ฆyou're not a stripper. I know you, you work in the waiting department.โ€ She pointed out.โ€œYes. But I can do this.

    Lexi's POV.โ€œArgh!โ€ I groaned as my eyes splitted open. My head was throbbing hard and it took me a great amount of willpower to sit up on the bed. With my back rested against the headboard, I started to breath unsteadily. I controlled my breathing until the headache slowly subsided.Even with that, I was still feeling all woozy. The hunger I experienced the night before had worn me down.It dawned on me. Speaking of last night, how did I get here? I looked around and saw that I was indeed in my room.Deciding not to think much of it now, I struggled to my feet, fighting through the body ache and dizziness. I walked over to the bathroom in slow and weak steps.I went to the sink and rinsed my face with water from the tap. I sighed and looked at myself in the mirror; I still looked pale. I needed to find something to eat.I stepped back into the room but suddenly felt the urge to go back to bed. My knees were killing me and I was sure if I decided to go downstairs, I would most certain
