Well, a little cliffhanger?
Sienna:“We managed to save everyone, ironically,” Diablo said, and I raised an eyebrow at him as I put ice pack on his forehead.“By giving you a concussion, of course you did.” I said, and he chuckled. “You are going to need to take a long break, Diablo. You heard what the doctor said, and the last thing that we are going to need is for you to be tired or sick. You are already did more than you should have for a while. You need a break.”“You and I both know that we can’t afford a break. You would have been on one if we did.” He said, and I sighed, shaking my head at him. There was no use trying to talk him out of this, I knew. But with his parents being around, my father too, I knew that he wasn’t going to get out of it easily.“We will see,” I said, and he raised an eyebrow at me. He wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling me to his chest, and I couldn’t help but find myself letting out a sigh of relief now that he was at home.“I was so scared that I would lose you,” I whispered,
Diablo:“You know that you are going to need to get out of bed, Sienna.” I said, trying to encourage my wife to get back on her feet. She wasn’t the same, I knew that. But I couldn’t blame her, to know what she’s been through, her own family, her mother in particular, turning her back on her the way that she did. It would break a man’s soul let alone a daughter.“I know,” she said, curling up in my arms. I ran my finger over her newly shaved arm, it was the first time that she has willed herself to shave since the miscarriage. She was managing to try and fight the pain that she was in, but I knew her enough to know that it wasn’t going to be easy.“Do you want the two of us to go out tonight? It has been a while since we’ve done so.”“You still need to rest, Diablo. You know that the doctors said that you can’t go out or do anything that would exhaust you for the matter. When you’re at home, it is easier to keep checking on you if you need anything, but being outside is not going to be
Sienna:“How is the little one?” I asked, looking at the maids knowing that they were taking good care of him. The fact that Alexandra, pretending to be his mother, didn’t even bother going to the hospital to check on the boy, bothered me. But I knew that I shouldn’t be expecting any less. She wasn’t going to risk going to him to get caught, and I couldn’t find myself leaving the boy at the hospital either. Thankfully, though, neither one of Netania, Arturo, or Diablo said anything about it. If anything, each one of us were taking care of him in their way.“He is alright, ma’am. He was just fed and we bathed him earlier today. You don’t need to worry about him, we are taking good care of him.” She said, and I nodded, lifting the boy in my arms. I smiled when he looked up at me, his gentle coos making my heart swell as my eyes softened.“I want you to take a good care of him. And if he needs anything, don’t hesitate to let me know.” I said, and she nodded. Diablo’s arms wrapped around
Alexandra:“What do you mean that we are going to have to fucking disappear? We have been hiding for the past month, do you think that this is going to do us any good? They would have their men lurking around and searching for us.” I asked, glaring at Alonzo. “You healed and they are still looking for you. The maximum that they are going to do is…”“You really are a fool, aren’t you?” Alonzo asked, stopping me. “They are going to have everything and everywhere that you can think of going to under watch. You are lucky to be alive one month after the wedding, trust me, you are going to end up dealing with more trouble with the stupidity that you are playing with. Diablo is not a man that you can mess with, and trust me, if you think that he is going to spare your life because he was your lover. The man is in love with Sienna, and he has proven it to the world and to you in person.”“I am going to grab your head and slam it against the nearest wall. Diablo might have Sienna as a weakness,
Alonzo:I stared, quietly, as they got ready to leave.They were foolish enough not to see that they were going to get caught easily. Not only that, but that they were going to, most likely, get themselves exposed.“Are you planning on staying here, Alonzo?” Myla asked, and I shook my head as I kept my eyes on her. I knew that she wasn’t a woman to be trusted. A woman who gave up on both her husband and daughter, for no known reason, had her son killed too, I was curious about where she planned on getting with this, but I knew better than to ask.“I am planning on playing my own game, though. However, what I want to ask is this, how am I going to trust a woman who not only betrayed her husband, but also chose to turn her back on the man, her own son, as he still worked with her?” I asked, and she scoffed.“Don’t play the game of innocence with me. I am the last person who is going to fall for that, trust me, Alonzo. You have done your own part in treason, and you have zero right to be
Myla:I kept my eyes on the picture of my son, knowing that this was not the way that I planned for things to go.His life being taken was the last thing that I would have wanted. The two of us worked together for years, I didn’t expect him to lose himself because of his sister. I didn’t expect him to turn his revenge into fear when he saw her strength despite knowing that I was beside him.Flashback:We watched as both Sienna and Diablo took down our men without fear. I didn’t even understand why Diablo chose to save the fucking bastard that I called my husband. The man could have died easily, I wouldn’t have been bothered by him as my son took his place.“Mama, you are going to run,” Carlos said, making my eyes widen in surprise. “Alonzo has a car waiting for you and Alexandra. You are going to take it and you are going to hide, when the time comes, you know to go to Paris. It is going to be the one place where you are going to be safe.” “Paris? You know for fact that they would kil
Sienna:I stared at the little boy in my arms, knowing that not only did he depend on me, but that he was so vulnerable that I couldn’t help but find myself feeling the pain of him losing everything and everyone at such an early age.“I don’t know why I got you, nor do I know what it to come with you being here, but I know one thing, you are a little blessing for me. I am going to be sure to keep counting that, to keep counting you as one, to even remind you when you grow older, despite you not being mine; that you came to this world as a blessing.” I said, walking around the room as I rocked the child to sleep. “I don’t know if you would accept me if you find out that I am not your biological mother, but that doesn’t matter. I am not a mother because I gave birth to you, I am going to be your mother because I chose, despite everything, to take care of you. There is a reason why I don’t know anything about who your mother is, I might end up searching if I did. I don’t want to, I have t
Diablo;I wrapped my arm around my wife, smiling when she leaned into my touch, allowing me to guide her to the surprise that I was taking her to.“What are you doing, Diablo?” She asked, holding Lorenzo to her chest. I smirked and kissed her cheek from behind, resting my chin against her shoulder before putting a hand on Lorenzo’s belly, smiling when he looked at me.She had blindfolds on her eyes, and though I knew that she was aware that I was taking her to our floor, the surprise that I prepared for her in the suite was one that she was going to like.“You don’t like surprised, and I can assume that you never will.” I said, making her laugh before I opened the door to the room that was once my office. The room that I had re-designed to make our little one’s nursery.“You are talking as if you met me yesterday.” She said, and I chuckled before removing the blindfold from her eyes.I put my hand on her lower back, pushing her inside the room, but she froze as she stared at it. Her ey
