Sienna:

I was calm as the nurse pulled the knife out of my leg, doing my best not to scream.

However, despite myself, I found myself squeezing my palm so hard that it bled, tears escaped my eyes before I could stop them, and I the metallic taste that I tasted from my lips told me that I bit through the process, drawing blood from it.

“We are going to need to clean it, ma’am.” The nurse said, and I nodded, looking away from her and at the now worried Maria as she sat on the chair beside the door.

“You know, you are not doing yourself a favor by sitting here. I am very much capable of dealing with this.” I said, and she shook her head at me.

“I still don’t understand how things happened. Why…?”

“Welcome to the world that we live in, Maria. Sometimes, things beyond us happen.” I said, my voice softening as I looked at her. “It is not out of the ordinary, but it is not something that I want Diablo finding out about just yet. He is too weak for me to be speaking to him about such a topic.

    Diablo:“Alonzo, please check where my sister went, the last thing we need is for her to start causing trouble, and knowing her, she wouldn’t hesitate.” I said, and he nodded.He walked out of the room, leaving me, mom, and Arturo in the room, and I couldn’t help but find myself feeling off. Something was wrong, I just didn’t know what it was. I didn’t know what it was that I felt.“You are worried about her when you should be resting and we should be the ones worried about you.” Mama said, her voice softening as she took my hand in hers. “And I can’t help but notice that you didn’t even bother calling for your wife, even after finding out what she did.”“You are going to stick to that subject, mama.” I said, and she raised an eyebrow.“She deserves you to notice her. The woman has been by your side for days and she has done nothing but try to serve you and make sure that you are fine. Asleep or not, she was constantly wiping your lips with a cloth of water, making sure to keep them h

    Sienna:“You really couldn’t go for five minutes without telling them?” I asked, shaking my head at the girl as I saw Alonzo and Netania rushing inside the room. She looked away from me, not saying a word, and Nathan rolled his eyes.“That is what we get when a teenager finds out about something.” He said, and she frowned.“The woman is my brother’s…”“Enough, Maria.” Netania said, stopping her daughter. “Alonzo, have the men take Maria home. We don’t know the danger that can be lurking around the hospital and the last thing that I am going to need is to find myself worrying about you right now.”“Mama…”“I said a word, Maria.” She said, stopping her daughter. She didn’t say another word to respond, and when the door opened, my eyes widened when I saw Arturo walking toward me. His eyes were filled with worry, and I smiled at the man, wanting to sit up properly. This was the last thing that I expected or needed.“What happened?” He asked, and I smiled.“Nothing happened. My brother and

    Lexi:“I have been fucking calling you nonstop for days!” I snapped, fighting back the urge to yell at Maria as she answered the phone.“It is not very easy on me to actually answer the phone when everything is just messed up. Whether it is the woman that you called friend or the fact that she was hurt by her brother.” She said, making me frown in confusion.“What are you talking about?” I asked, lowering my voice a bit. “What happened to Sienna?”“A lot. But that doesn’t matter now. She is fine. Mom and dad are with her, she okay now.” She said, choosing not to give me an answer. “Diablo is awake, he is not willing to see her. I don’t know why, though, but he kicked her out of the room the second he woke up.”“Really?” I asked, now more interested to hear what she was going to tell me. “He kicked her out when the two of them were lovers the day before?”“They were lovers, I assume. But something must have happened for him to leave as angry as he is. The house is turning upside down wi

    Diablo:“I want to go to my wife’s room.” I said, making Nathan raise an eyebrow at me.“You can’t expect me to allow you to do that. Plus, the woman is asleep, she is going to need a break to be able to heal. You as well, and that is not something that I am going to allow you to neglect, Diablo.” He said, and I shook my head at him.“She deserves me by her side. She was by my side throughout my entire stay and I am not going to leave her when she…”“You know that she didn’t even want you finding out about what happened to her, and for known reasons. I believe that she didn’t want you seeing her weak, and that is not going to be something that I will allow you to do to begin with. Your body, just like hers, needs to rest. You are going to need to take a break, and she is going to need to be able to…”“I am not asking, Nathan. I want to see my wife.” I said, stopping the man. He raised an eyebrow at me before nodding at the nurse who was in the room, asking her to leave the two of us a

    Sienna:I woke up to my bedroom door opening, frowning when I couldn’t see who was standing in the shadow.It was dark, and I was still drowsy with painkillers, but that didn’t mean that I liked it. After what happened with my brother, I knew to be more than just a little careful from here.“You can rest, it’s only me.” Alonzo’s voice made me release a breath that I didn’t realize that I was holding. He walked toward the nightstand that was beside me and I watched as the man turned on the light, looking at me with gentle eyes as he did. “Are you okay?”“Should I be?” I asked, and he looked away from me, not saying a word.“I shouldn’t have let you go alone. I should have followed or at least sent one of the men to do so.” He said, and I smiled, shaking my head at the man.“It is not your fault. You wouldn’t have known that my brother was out to kill me. Plus, it is not like I shouldn’t have expected it. Carlos always had his ways, but I didn’t expect him to be coming to the city as fas

    Carlos:“You are right about her being a traitor.” I said, calling my father as I cleaned the cut that I had on my chin. I had to fight back hissing in pain, knowing that he would hear me.“What happened?” He asked, and I shook my head, knowing that my sister was in this. This was the last thing that I would have wanted to think of, but I knew that it was something to expect. No one sent a woman to do a man’s job in the den of the enemy and just expect her to be loyal and straight headed, not Sienna, at least.“She is falling for the man, as he is for her.”“Falling for the man? My son, this is your sister that you are talking about. Sienna is not the type to fall in love with a man at first sight. She would have fallen for Marcus, the man who I wanted her to be with.” He said, making me chuckle as I put the cotton ball away, knowing that this was a topic that we were going to need to talk about.“Sienna never cared about who you wanted her to be with. Marcus is not the type for her t

    Diablo:“Are you sure that you are going to be able to go to her? You can wait for her to wake up. She is going to come herself, Diablo.” Mom said, looking at me as she saw me wanting to get out of bed.“She deserves to see me by her side just as she was by mine when I needed her. It is how I want it to be, and I don’t want you to tell me otherwise, mama. I know that you don’t want me to get up, but she did the same thing to me, if not more.” I said, and mom shook her head at me just as the door opened. It was Alonzo and Sienna, and the woman frowned when she saw me trying to get up from my bed.“What the hell are you doing?” She asked, scolding me.“You can speak to him, I have been trying to for the past hour. He seems to want to leave the room to see you.” Mom said, and Sienna raised an eyebrow at me.“You have lost your mind.”“As have you. What the fuck do you think you’re doing standing up when you were stabbed in your leg yesterday?” I asked, glaring at my woman. I looked at Alo

    Sienna:“You are going to need to eat something, Diablo.” I said, looking at the man who was not only being stubborn, but was also less mature than a toddler.“I would rather order takeout than eat this hospital…”“You are sick, on medication, and you are not going to eat takeout. This hospital food is made for your own good. You are going to eat it if you are going to want to heal. Otherwise, your body is going to keep growing weak.” I said, and he raised an eyebrow at me.“You know that I am not five and this is not going to be a lie that I am going to fall for, right?” He asked, and I scoffed. The man kept his eyes on me as a small smile of amusement formed on his lips, making me shake my head at him.“Then stop acting like you are five, and I am not going to use it on you. But considering that you are choosing to not only be stubborn, but to also act as if the whole world is ending simply because we are not getting you takeout food, I am going to keep treating you like a mother wou

    “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

    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

    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

    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
