Sienna:

I stared at the building for a moment, frowning when I saw that we could have been inside that building when the bomb exploded and the fire started.

The fact that the fire was already eating the building told me that the bomb was inside, not planted outside. Meaning, whoever had planted this thing, was inside the building.

My heart raced against my ribcage, and I looked at Diablo as he walked toward the building. The man was crazy if he thought that he was going to be walking toward that place by himself. And considering the fact that no one was around him, I knew that he was going to need backup.

“Where the fuck do you think you’re going?” Diablo asked, frowning when he saw me following him. His eyes met mine for a moment, and I had to fight back the anger that I felt, knowing that he was putting his life in danger.

“If you are a Capo, I am the daughter of a Pakhan, and I doubt that you would think that I would run away from a fight.” I said, and he frowned at me. His eyes met

    Diablo:“Did anyone get hurt?” I asked, and Bartolomeo, one of the bodyguards, shook his head.“No, boss. We managed to get out of the building before it happened.” He said, and I nodded. I had to fight back the annoyance that I felt, and the fact that we were here earlier, that my parents were here, it was something that angered me.“Do you know the source of the fire? It couldn’t have just happened…”“It was a box that was inside your bride’s dressing room.” He said, making me frown as I looked at Sienna whose eyes were just as wide as mine were, clearly confused at what Bartolomeo was saying.“Are you sure?” I asked, and he nodded.“Positive, boss. The timer went off a few seconds after the building was cleared. I am not sure whether it was intended for you to have it in the car with you, but if it was…”“My parents wanted to get rid of the two of us.” She said, allowing herself to speak despite the shock that she was in.“Or me.” I said, and she frowned. “Leave us,”Bartolomeo wal

    Sienna:His footsteps were ones that annoyed me today. I wanted anything but to be with him, but I knew that a man like him failed to take a hint.“Do you understand what it is to be asked to be left alone?” I asked, not bothering to turn to look at the man.“I don’t think that you expect me to keep you here after what happened.” He said, and I scoffed.“I expect you to go to hell, but I can’t have everything, can I?” I asked, and he took a deep breath.“I’m sorry,” he said, making me frown in confusion. “For what happened earlier, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt you.”I turned to look at the man, and he took a step back. “Why did you come here, Diablo? Because I doubt that a man like yourself would apologize to the woman that he calls an enemy.”“I came to genuinely apologize. Because regardless of what you might think, I do apologize when I make mistakes.” He said, and I looked away from him. This was not a manner that my father had. In his world, men rarely ever apologized to thei

    Diablo:I had to admit, I didn’t expect her to be willing to shake hands on a deal. But when she did, I smirked, respecting it.“Where are we going?” Sienna asked, looking at me from the corner of her eyes. “I thought you said we had some meeting to attend. This route is different from the one that we took earlier.”“I know,” I said, looking up from my phone. “We are going to the airport directly. While I did have a meeting, I chose to postpone until we got home. It’s already late as it is, and the less time I spend here, the better it is going to be.”She nodded, not saying another word. I looked down at the phone again, and I couldn’t help but frown when I saw a message from Lexi. The fact that she was sending one now was surprising to me, but I knew not to bother questioning her motives. The woman had her ways and her emotion breakdowns, it was the way that she was; I knew that for fact.“What are we going to do when we get to the Estate?” Sienna asked, breaking my train of thought

    Sienna:I had to fight back the urge to want to call my family, wanting to ask them why they did what they have. But I knew to wait, I didn’t even know whether or not it was them to begin with.I wanted to find ONE lead that would prove me wrong, that the people that called me daughter did not betray me this way. They couldn’t be responsible for such an attack. At least, I hoped not.I shook Diablo’s hand, ignoring the clench that I felt in my chest. But I had no other option. It was the only way to keep myself safe.If my family wanted me dead, then I wasn’t going to lose the one person that was willing to help me out, even if he was only doing it for his own benefit.We got out of the car, and I looked up at the house, the estate that I was now to live in with my ‘husband’. Regardless of what the two of us might have said, I couldn’t help but find myself doubting that he was being true to me. The man could have only been doing that to make sure whether or not I was on his side.“The

    Diablo:I looked at my wife whose eyes met mine, knowing that she was in pain.She sat on one in front of her dresser inside the bedroom, fixing a bunch of jewels inside boxes that would later be going to the dressing room. There was a safe there for her to keep them there.I didn’t know what she and mom spoke about, but I knew that it was often that a mother-in-law would be speaking to her son’s wife, especially as a new bride of a different family, to let her know of our ways. But knowing my mother, I knew that the last thing that she would do is force anything onto Sienna. She was herself, a rebellion once too.“Are you okay? You’ve been quiet for a while.” I asked, and she nodded as she raised the box, her jewelry box, that she was fixing.My eyes landed on a particular gem, an emerald, and I couldn’t help but find myself admiring it, being one of my one of favorite stones.“Your mom was kind enough to have the maids fix things for me, but the jewels, I would be fixing myself.

    Sienna:“What is this?” I asked, smiling at the sight of the white tables, the reception, and the guests who were arriving.Flowers were laid out almost everywhere and the number of people who turned to look at the two of us as we walked out to the garden took me by surprise. I had to admit, I didn’t expect many to be interested in seeing me as his bride. It seemed to me that I was wrong, very wrong too.“This, my beloved wife, is how we celebrate a Capo dei Capi’s wife. While our marriage is not the most ideal, we still have our ways before constituting the marriage.” Diablo said, making my eyes widen in surprise. He looked at me and smirked before looking at his parents from a distance. “At least, that is what they’re going to believe.”“For a man who said that he didn’t intend to touch me, I am surprised that you are bringing up the topic about constituting the marriage.” I said, looking up at the man with a smile on my face, making sure to keep a low voice as I knew not to allow a

    Diablo:“She is a beauty, that is something that I have to admit,” Nathan, one of my allies said, looking at Sienna who was talking to a bunch of women, getting to know them. Mom was by her side, and I could tell, despite not knowing what they were talking about as women, that mom seemed to be proud of her. “How much for a night with her?”“Excuse me?” I asked, making the man step back as he knew that I heard him. The man knew and understood that he did something wrong, and I raised an eyebrow, waiting for him to say otherwise.“We are all aware of the fact that she is not the woman that you wanted to be with. You know, with this arrangement, I figured that you wouldn’t mind us taking turns with her.”“One more word out of you, and I am going to be sure that I break your face, do you fucking understand me?” I asked, and he looked down at his feet, knowing not to say another word. He knew that I was serious, and one thing that I never allowed was anyone talking about my women.“I never

    Sienna:“Your husband seems to be obsessed with you,” Lexi pointed out as the two of us sat at the table together. Diablo left to talk to his friends, and I chose to sit with her for a while.I turned to find Diablo looking at us. His eyes met mine and he nodded, I returned the nod with an assuring smile before turning to Lexi.“The two of us are newlyweds. It is only normal for him to be curious, you know.” I said, and she nodded. “How did you find out about the celebration, though? Even I didn’t know about it until Diablo told me about it a while ago.”“I heard your mom talking about it. They were debating on whether or not they would go, and I figured, judging by the way that they spoke, that they might not come.” She said, avoiding my eyes. “I figured to be here by your side as not to leave you alone.”I put my hand on top of my best friend’s, thankful for her being there for me. “You are the one person that I trust in this world.”She smiled and put her left hand on top of mine, s

    “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
