And we have a double war ahead of us. Alonzo thinks like Diablo, but with Sienna being smart, how are they going to manage?
Alexandra:“What do you mean that they went to Switzerland?” Myla asked as we sat at the dining table, and I had to admit, though I didn’t make a sound, I knew that this was Sienna’s doing. She guided Diablo to where she believed that he would be safe, where the two of them would be safer.“They are there now. The men have reported to seeing them. They aren’t in Italy, no fucking where in Italy!” Alonzo snapped before turning his attention to me. “Did you tell them?”“Yes, because I am foolish enough to even consider speaking to any of them. You know, with everything that is going on, I believe that it will be the wisest thing for me to speak to each and every one of them, let them know what I heard from you, and you know what, I even told them where we are…”“Alexandra!”“What did you expect me to tell him, Myla? The man is putting up such an accusation and I am supposed to be quiet about it? The man just snapped at me for something that I wouldn’t think of doing, and not because I am
Diablo:“It seems that it was a good thing that we chose to listen to your wife. She knew what she was doing.” Giovanni, one of my partners, said, and I nodded.I looked at Sienna and took her hand in mine, gently intertwining our fingers. I had to admit, I was thankful for what she did. We would have ended up dealing with more of a fuss than we would have wanted to do.“Had it not been for her, we would have had a little surprise because of Alonzo. Switzerland seems to be the best option.” I said, and he nodded. “He can’t approach us here.”“He can, but it would be too much of a big risk. The idea of him taking it is not going to be wise. And with Alexandra knowing that the French are not on the best terms with her, I doubt that she would be foolish enough to try and test her luck. I can be wrong, but she is not the type to try and risk things.” Sienna said, and I smirked, pulling her to me before wrapping an arm around her waist.“I must admit, you didn’t seem to be the type to bring
Sienna:“Are you okay?” Diablo asked, taking my hand in his as we walked inside the room. I hummed in response and smiled when he brought my and to his lips, gently kissing my knuckle.“I am curious about how you plan on making them fall for the treaty act. They are not going to believe it, especially not Alonzo.” I said, and he nodded.“And the whole plan is for him not to believe it. He is going to need to be a coward in front of them, but in my own terms. When they see him for who and what he really is, he is going to try and fake whatever it is that he has in mind. It is your mother that I am worried about. If she really is working with Elton, then things are going to be a lot more complicated.” He said, and I nodded, knowing that he was right. The last thing that I needed was for him to be dealing with her. The two of them together were one of the reasons why Elton became as strong as he was in the past.“You can imagine how I feel about this. But I know for fact that this is a g
Diablo:I ran my finger over my wife’s waist, holding her to my chest as she slept.Her chest rose and fell as she slept peacefully.“I don’t know how we are going to manage things, neonata.” I whispered to my sleeping angel. “But I promise you that I will do everything that I can to make sure that you’re safe. If they try to hurt you, I will have their heads. Each and every one of them, I give you my word.”I ran my finger over her bare waistline, smiling when she sighed in contentment. I kissed her temple one more time before slowly moving from beside her, not wanting to wake her up. She was going to need to get some rest, and I knew that with everything that we had to deal with, she was barely getting any rest.I pinched the bridge of my nose as I put on my boxers before standing in front of the window, pouring myself a glass of scotch. Arms wrapped around me as I took a sip of the drink, and smiling, I put my hand on my wife’s, my heart skipping a beat when she rested her cheek on
Sienna:“Are you sure that you want to go back home, Sienna?” Diablo asked, and I smiled, nodding at him.“As much as I want to spend more time alone with you, going home is the better option right now. We have our enemies who are ready to attack us at any given moment, and if we just cut some slack with things, if we loosen our grip on others, we are going to end up paying a price that neither one of us wants to deal with.” I said, resting my head on his chest. The day was going to be a long one, I knew that for fact, but I also knew that whatever we were going to do had to be done.No matter how hard it was going to be, we were not going to be running away from it. It wasn’t going to be the solution to our problem.“It seems to me that YOU don’t want to go back, though.” I said, and he smiled and nodded as he ran his fingers over my waistline.“Trust me, knowing that we are living in this peace, I don’t want to go anywhere away from you. I want to be by your side through it all and
Alonzo:“You can’t seriously be considering making a deal with Diablo? The man is playing you, and you are giving into him by believing that he is going to try making a treaty with us. The man is going to play us and he is going to do his best to have us in one place to have our heads.” I said, looking at Myla who raised an eyebrow at me.“Is it me or is that fear that I hear in your voice?” Alexandra asked, and I laughed, shaking my head at her before my eyes hardened.“You of all people should not be seen by Diablo or Sienna for that matter. She is going to have your head chopped off after she has pulled your hair, one bit after the other, forcing it down your throat for thinking of her husband let alone being his ex, sleeping with him, and even carrying his child.” I said, and her eyes hardened as Myla frowned in confusion.“What child?”“It was never his child.” She said, not bothering to turn to look at Myla. “It was my husband’s. I doubted that telling Diablo about it would hav
Alexandra:I wrapped my hand around Alonzo’s arm, pulling him back as I knew that he would do anything but confront me right now. Of course, he wouldn’t.The two of us knew that he was playing with fire, and I knew that it was only a matter of time before he got caught. The one question was why? What was he getting out of this?“What do you want, Alexandra?”“Lexi to you,” I said, and he raised an eyebrow, shaking his head in question as he did. “What the fuck do you think you’re doing? Are you losing your mind? Because this is the ONE explanation that I have to what you’re playing with.”“Maybe I have, maybe I haven’t. I am wondering, though, why are you asking?” He asked, making my eyes harden.“Alonzo, you are testing your luck with both Sienna and Diablo. I know you more than anyone here and I know what you are capable of. Why are you acting like some fool who is willing to fall for whatever lie they throw at you? I don’t understand?” I asked, and he studied my expression for a mo
Sienna:“You are my daughter, my pride, my glory, and when you marry Diablo Duraturo, you are going to bring honor to our family. You won’t just be his wife, though, you are going to be MY daughter. The daughter that I know will give me all the information that there is to know about that family, do you understand me, Sienna?” My father’s words played in my head, reminding me of the hardship that I was forced into before I got into this marriage. One that I never expected to work. One that I found myself falling in love with.“You’re bothered,” Diablo said, wrapping his arms around me breaking the train of my thoughts as I stood in front of the window, trying to clear my thoughts. Thoughts that I didn’t understand, ones that I couldn’t put my fingers to.“Sometimes I find myself wondering where I went wrong, whether or not I was doing the right thing when it came to the people that I once called my family. Others, I wonder whether I was going to be thinking the same way if I didn’t ma
