Sienna:“You can't be serious.” I said, looking at Diablo as I heard his plan.“If someone can help us with this, it is Maria.” He said, not looking at his mother, whose eyes were already wide with surprise.“Yes, because the smartest thing to do is put Maria in such danger. Diablo, she barely. Lee recovered from the shot.” Netania said, looking at her son with wide eyes, she shook her head, waiting for her husband to say otherwise. He did not.“I understand your concern Mama, but this is something that she can help with. And we are going to be by her side as she makes the phone call. Lexi just has to believe that she wants to meet her and when she does, we can call an ambush.” Diablo said, trying to explain the situation. I pinched the bridge of my nose, not liking where this was going.“Diablo, you do realize that this is not something that's going to be easy with Alonzo by his side, Mom and Elton, this is not going to be something that we can easily fool Lexi with. She is going to t
Diablo:“How are you sure that we are not going to be shot the second we are inside?” I asked, looking at Sienna who smiled.“I am not, but it is the best shot that we have.” She said, and I chuckled.“And you call me risky?”“Yes, that is because you are a man who is putting his sister in such a game is a risky man. But right now, I don't want to question that. I have a lot in mind and the last thing that I want to do is be worried about whatever you have as a plan.” She said, making me laugh.The two of us walked toward the gate that led to her family house. It was abandoned, but I knew that there were guards and maids there. It was often this way in big family houses. Whichever house was abandoned had its own servants, its own guards and its own resources.It was often an escape or getaway for a pack or family members to go to if they needed to.“And do you think that we are going to find weapons here?”“I don't think, I know.” She said, making me raise an eyebrow. “Carlos often ca
Diablo:“Remind me to never annoy you.” I teased looking at my wife, who raised an eyebrow at me.“Coming from the man who just killed four men without blinking an eye, I am surprised.” She said, making me chuckle.“Yes, and I would do it all over again. The man hurt my wife. Well, at least threatened to do so.” I said, and she laughed.“He almost hurt me because I nearly killed him, Diablo.” She said, making me roll my eyes.“Not a valid reason to end up harming you anyway. I am choosing to dismiss that topic.” I said, and she shook her head. The two of us walked toward the library. Almost everyone that led to the library was either dead or afraid to harm us. They knew that we would not hesitate to kill any of them. Plus, the maids had no benefit in keeping anything hidden.“Are you sure that going to the library is a good idea? I thought we were going to get something else. Weapons maybe?” I said, and she nodded.“Sometimes the biggest weapons, the strongest and deadliest are hidden
Diablo:“I will choose not to ask where you got these weapons.” Father said, looking down at the set of weapons that we brought into the house.Sienna looked at me and smiled, and once she looked at Maria, my little sister shook her head.The night was still young and I knew that we had a lot to take care of. It was going to be a hell of a long one, but if it worked, I knew that things were going to go our way. And that was something that I wanted. It was the one thing that I wanted to think of right now, and I knew that my sister saw it.This was a chance for her to prove that I could trust her, for her to redeem herself. And though I knew that she did what she had because she was young and foolish, we all make mistakes at that point, I still wanted to be able to trust her. “Yeah, but you know, ahead of you. I suggest that you be ready.”“Calling Lexi is not going to be hard thing. It is convincing her that I am the one who is calling her that might be.” She said, shrugging her should
Lexi:I frowned as I saw my phone ringing.No one aside a few people knew of the safe line. To have someone calling me took me off guard.I'm looking at the caller ID. For a moment, I hesitated. It was another safe line, but the only other safe line that called me was going to be Maria. I was the one who gave her the number. I was sure to do so because I needed someone on the inside, someone who saw what Diablo was doing. A pain and the joke that I did not know would I mean the ass.I looked out the door for a second, closing it, knowing that if someone entered, they would think that I was betraying them. I was not. This was Maria. The girl had stood by my side through things that none of them would have.“I am surprised that you managed to call. I expected that you would take a longer while to do so.” I said, choosing to act as if I did not know that Alonzo shot her. I want you to know what she was going to tell me, what she had in mind.“I believe that you are well aware that I was u
Sienna:“I'm sorry, what?” I asked, glaring at my husband, who just gave me the news that they were going to see Alexandra and that they would not want me to be there. “Diablo, what the hell do you mean that I'm not going to be there when you see Alexandra?”“Now is not the time for jealousy, Sienna.” Netania said, and I raised an eyebrow. At the moment, she couldn't actually believe that I was being jealous of Alexandra, the woman who was my husband's ex-girlfriend.“Do you really believe that this is out of jealousy? My mother is siding with that woman, ignoring the fact that she is the Diablo’s ex. I have a lot to deal with when it comes to her, and I'm going to start with the fact that she was going to marry my brother.” I said, and Natania looked away from me. “You can't be serious about this.”“There is a lot that you are going to have to deal with at home. I don't want you to be there when things break close and if something does happen…”“Unlock will happen. Alexandra's not go
Alonzo:“Where do you think you're going?” I asked, looking at Lexi who already had her bags packed.“I don't think this should matter to you. I already have permission from Myla and Elton to go. Plus, who the hell do you think you are to ask?” She asked, glaring at me.“What do you mean who the hell am I? If anyone knows who you are and knows how twisted you can be, then it is me. If Myla chooses to ignore that, and if Elton does not know you enough, then I do. I know that you are up to something and you would not just be leaving simply because you wanted to go on break, especially after everything that we've have been through and especially knowing that you have Sienna, Diablo and the whole Duraturo family after your head.” I said, and she laughed.“My friend there after your head and not mine. While yes I am part of this war but the main thing that they need to take care of is the man who shot their daughter. You really need to set your priorities straight and you need to understand
Diablo:Anger was a small word to describe what I felt.I kept my eyes on my wife, who was breathing heavily.An oxygen mask covered her face. Without it, she would not be able to breathe.The bullet that hit her left lung, nearly touching her heart.The sight of her blood as she lost conscience, not processing that she was shot, played in my mind.I didn't know who did it, who shot the fucking bullet, but I knew that it was not something that I could just ignore or let go of. Whoever did this was going to pay with their lives and I was going to be sure that they knew it.“Diablo, you are going to need to eat something.” Mom urged trying to get me to get up from the couch. She knew that I wouldn't get up. I would not leave her in this state.The idea that the person, whoever they were, was as close to the house as they were angered me. It made me furious to know that I could not protect my wife.“Please Diablo, you are not helping yourself in any way and she is not going to be able to
“This war is just getting started, I do hope that you realize that.” He said, looking at us Alonzo, who did not bother to say a word. He knew what it was he was signed up to when he did. And he was well aware that this war was going to take a lot more out of them than it was going to give them.“This war is going to end with the death of Diablo. This is going to be the only way of this family to break and when it is broken, we will know how to act.” Alonzo said, choosing to respond calmly. “You managed to play your daughter well, I have to admit. I did not expect that out of you, but Sienna seemed to fall for the act of you being on her side. I believe that Myla would have told her the truth by now.“My love lost the one person who would have stood by her side, and that was going to be Elton. With the man dead, she knew that she had no reason to live. She knew that I would not allow her to be my wife anymore. And that was something that you did not want. And after Carlos's death, she k
Diablo:We stood by the door, knowing that we had to get things done.The night was going to be a long one and I knew that Myla expected us to be arriving.I looked at Sienna, who was in pain, but I knew that asking her to stay back was not going to help. She was going to be stubborn and was going to choose doing what she wanted anyway. Might as well allow her to come. Being able to see her would help me focus on the target and the job that we needed to take care of.“We're going to go inside and trust me, this is going to be one hard task. Are you sure that you are ready for it?” I asked, knowing that this was my last shot, and doing so, my eyes met Alonzo's as she stood from the window, watching us in silence. His men were stationed around the windows and I knew that it was only a matter of time before they pulled out their guns. They were just waiting for the order.“This is going to be our one shot Diablo. The last thing that I want is for us to back away. The men are outside and h
Sienna:“How did you manage to leave? Mom just literally calls me. How did you arrive?” Diablo wrapped an arm around my waist. He pulled me to his chest and I could tell that he was both worried and frightened.“Your phone was bugged, son, and we figured that we could use that to our advantage. We were already here when we called you. The one thing that happened was that we were waiting for Alexandra to show up. Sienna wanted to give her a chance to be honest, but it seems to us that it is impossible.” Natania said, taking her son off guard. I knew that Diablo did not expect her to be there, and the fact that she was here with me was one that I didn't even expect. I expected her to fight me. However, I was surprised when she told me that she was coming with me.“I can't believe that the two of you went off whatever arguments that you had for this. And you should be at the hospital. You're still yet to recover, Sienna.” Diablo said, and I raised an eyebrow. He smirked and connected his
Diablo:“What do you mean that she wants to leave the hospital, Mom? I literally told you to keep her there. What do you mean that she's leaving?”“Your wife here does not listen to a word that is being said. I told her what you said but she said that it doesn't make a difference. She is going to leave. And trust me, she has good reason for that. But Diablo, you are going to need to be careful, both you and Maria.” She said, changing the subject. I frowned in confusion and I knew that something was going on. If Sienna was leaving the hospital like that, then something had happened or was going to happen.“What do you mean that we need to be careful? My wife is going to leave the hospital when she is still sick and you are asking me to be careful about something that is yet to happen.” I said Snapping got her. I knew that it was not like me to do so, especially with my mother, but right now I had a lot to think about and Sienna leaving the hospital was the last thing that I needed to be
Sienna:I found when I opened my eyes to find myself in a white room.I was your sleep on the hospital bed. And though I still could not remember what happened, I knew that if I was here that either I was shot or something bad happened.This was the 4th time that I've woken up. Only at first, I was alone. This time I knew that I was not. And that fact alone had me aware of my surroundings. I had tried to sit up four times until now. And on each attempt the nurses would stop me. The last time she had put me to sleep. This time it seemed to me that she was no longer here.I looked around the room, trying to find Diablo, only to frown in confusion when I found Natania sitting on the couch. Her eyes met mine and she smiled before she got up. I tried setting up which you gently pushed me back, not allowing me to do so.“What happened?” I asked weakly. My head throbbed and it felt like I was being hit on my forehead with a hammer. I was not going to mention the top of my head, which felt li
Maria:“Are you sure that you want to do this, Diablo?” I asked, looking at my brother, knowing that he was in conflict. The fact that Sienna was at the hospital was not something that I liked. I did not know who shot her, but I knew that this was something that he had to take care of. It was supposed to be a priority, not Lexi.“We are not going to go back from this, Maria. The number of things that we have to deal with are countless and delaying one thing is not going to help us. At least we might as well get this one done. If we managed to get her, capture her, then things are going to end the way that we want. At least I hope so.” He said, not bothering to look at me.I knew that he had a lot on his mind and that he was thinking of so much. Sienna was someone that he loved. It pained me to know that I was going to be a reason to separate the two of them.The idea of being the person that was to be the one that hurt him was not something that I liked. I was just thankful that he wa
