Tony's POV
It was 12:30am when the gunshots started. I woke up abruptly and turned to Camilla who already had her eyes open.
"Tony, what's going on?" She whispers, her breath shaky.
"I don't know. Just stay here, I'll go see what's happening."
I pull out my pistol from my bedside drawer and walk slowly to the living. I look out the window that would give me a clearer view of what's happening downstairs.
The first thing I see are two gun masked men and they are shooting randomly. I know it's to get my attention.
Then one of them spots me and aims for the window. I duck quickly just before a bullet flies through the window.
I take cover quickly and point my gun at the window and shoot at them.
We start exchanging fire for like thirty minutes and then they stop shooti
Tony's POV"Mexico!" Camilla screamed when we landed in at the airport."Yeah baby. Welcome back home."We leave the airport and go to my apartment. We were in a part of Mexico called Alcapoco.I had a bunch of friends in Mexico that could be of help to me. And God knows I need all the help I can get.Not long after we get inside the apartment and have moved all our stuff from the car, there was a knock on the door.Derek opens the door and six guys walk in. "Ballo!" They all scream at the same time."Hey!" I reply. I hug them one by one. It's been over two years since I saw them last.Someone clears their throats from behind me and I turn to see Camilla, Derek and the kids standing behind me."Oh yeah. Guys, these are my friends, Juan-Migel Antonio,

~×~×~×~Camilla's POVThe early morning sun shone brightly through the opened Windows of my room. I opened my eyes slowly so they could adjust to the bright light. Everything about my body felt sour. Everything hurt. But then the pain was replaced by the memories of the night before.I smiled and turned my face to look at the man beside me. Tony was still deeply asleep and he was so cute to look at. I few strands of his curly hair fell infront of his eyes. I brushed it away from his face to get a good look at him.I noticed the way his lips were sort of pouty when he slept and he breathed really softly. He looked so at peace and that was one way I'd never seen Tony since we met. There were times when he looked happy, when he goofed around with Alejandro and Alejandra but he never really looked fully at peace. I could still see the pain that was buried deep
I'm tired! I'm so fucking tired of fighting. I just wish that the person who was after me would show themselves to me already.At this point, I felt helpless. I didn't know how I was supposed to protect the people I loved if I didn't know who even wanted to harm us. It was trying to fight a ghost.There was no strategy because we never knew when they would hit.This time, I decide that we would stay in exactly the same place and see if we could kidnap one of the men and try to torture some information out of him.I knew it wasn't the most brilliant plan but it was all we could come up with. I had exhausted all my ideas. It felt like this war was never going to end.Everyday I looked at Derek, the twins and Camilla, my heart broke because I knew it was my fault they were in this situation. If anyone deserved this, it was me. Not innocent people that w
Camilla's POV I'd held this secret for so long and it had turned into a burden. I knew it was something that might help Tony know who was after us but I couldn't bring myself to tell him. I was afraid that he'd look at me differently and the longer it took for me to tell him, the more I kept feeling scared that he would be angry with me about not telling him sooner. But I couldn't hold it in anymore. I was being selfish and only thinking about myself instead of remembering that there were a lot of people involved that might get hurt because of my stupidity. "What I am about to tell you is really bad, so please don't say anything until I am done talking." "Okay." He answered, his voice heavily coated with worry. "When I was thirteen, I met this older guy. His name was Eugene Castillo. He was seven years older than me but it didn't stop the fact that I
Unkown's POV "Sir, they haven't changed location since the last attack." One of my men told me. "Then we need to be careful because Tony Caraballo isn't stupid enough to stay in one place while he's in danger without having a plan." I said with a matter-of-fact tone. "True. So what's our next move?" He asked. "Nothing for now. Let them think that the storm is over and get back to their normal lives. Then we will hit him where it hurts. I will gather my many allies, people who would like to take Tony down with me and we will join forces to end him. We will deliver blows to him where it will hurt the most. This isn't over till we have broken him." Tony Caraballo went from being one of my favorite persons to being my worst enemy without even realizing it. He cost me a lot of loses with his reckless and stupid behavior. Now he must pay for it. Even if I
WARNING: THIS PART CONTAIN SEXUAL SCENES, READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!~×~×~×~Tony's POVI woke up in the middle of the night to get some water when I heard Camilla and Derek talking about me. Then when Camilla started to talk it caught my attention.This whole time I was being angry with her even when I knew I didn't want to be angry with her.I missed her so much. Since I got back to my room, I haven't been able to sleep well. It was like I went back to that time before I met Camilla and everything was still filled with darkness.Things were still dark now but she was the light that was holding me together."Give me a second with me girl." I said after Camilla had finished talking.After Derek left, Camilla literally threw herself at me. I pulled her close to me tightly like I would never let
Ballo's POV"Can't we just disguise ourselves and go out for a walk? I am tired of being cooked up in this house!" Camilla whined.I'd been hearing the same thing over and over for days nonstop! She was tired of being indoors all day and that was making her very irritable. She had zero to none tolerance for everything and everyone especially me."No, Cami. It's not safe. It's better to be indoors than to risk going out and getting killed.""Well, if we are disguised nobody will know it's us and then they can't kill us, duh!" She said making me sound stupid."You may be right or you may be wrong." I shot back."And you may be right or wrong too and what's the point any way. These crazy people, whoever they are still manage to find us even when we are just home. They'll find us anywhere we are in the world.""S

TONY'S POVThe alarm rings by 5 am on the dot but I am already awake. I have been awake for the past two hours because I was awakened by a nightmare. The same nightmare that always starts the same way; Everybody would be in the living room of my mansion and we would all be having fun and playing board games and generally having fun. Then all of a sudden, some faceless guys barge into the house and then they kill everybody except me. I start to cry knowing that it was all my fault and then I wake up sweating and gasping for air. This time though, I had succeeded in not waking Camilla up. God knows how much she needed to sleep, she had bags under her eyes, and her bright, big, beautiful eyes are now red. I laid back down and pulled her close to my chest. I inhaled her delicious vanilla strawberry smell and pressed a kis
Nail Tech by Jack Harlow~*~*~TONY'S POVIt's been a week since the whole incident and we are back in California. Andre said that there was really nothing for him in Mexico, so he decided to come back and fight with us. His wound was already healing but he was still getting a lot of rest. The drive back to my house from the airport was filled with silence. It was as though nobody wanted to speak. Coming back to California was like coming back to death because everybody who might possibly want to harm me was either living here or knew that I lived here. When we got to the gate of my house, I used the remote on my phone to open it and we drove in. Everything looked just as I had left it, at least on the outside. When we all went inside, it was a different story all together. Everything in the house was shattered. My Samsung UA11050 Television was wholly shattered. It was evident that the person who did this had every intention of hurting me. "Damn!" Andre blurted out. "How could so
TONY'S POVRed and blue lights flashed all over the place as the medics carried Andre on a gurney and took him into the ambulance. I entered the ambulance with him after I told Derek to go home with Camilla and the other guys.I had to go to the hospital with him because he had no other family besides me even though he tried to kill me, he was still my brother and in all honesty, I held no form of resentment towards him, I actually felt sorry for him.Andre was a boy who had been hurt by the actions of his father and he felt abandoned. He became resentful and bitter and sort to take revenge on people who didn't deserve it.I really felt for my brother and somehow in the middle of this crazy scheme, even though he had tried to kill me and he had forced my girlfriend to kiss him after kidnapping her, I still learned to love him.He and I weren't that much different. We were both scarred by things that
DEREK'S POVWe had spent days building the perfect plan and today was the day we would finally execute the plan. I was really nervous because the plan was shaky at best, we didn't know how tight the security was at the location where they were. Just because the guy was careless enough to call Ballo with his phone number doesn't mean that he's stupid. It was obvious from the way he handled the entire situation that he was very smart and very clever. But we really had nothing to lose from trying."Is everything ready for us to go?" I asked Juan-Miguel who had just finished loading some guns in the van."Yeah, everything is set. Carlos is coming over with the bulletproof vests in a bit."I nodded and headed towards the van.All these preparations reminded me of the time when Ballo and I were kids and we use to play 'soldiers' in a pretend war. We always pretended as though we were shooting the bad guys and we c
TONY'S POVThe days were losing meaning and I was slowly drowning in a dark pit. Ever since the day that Camilla had kissed Adriano, shit hasn't just been the same. I wondered what her reasons could be for committing such an act but I couldn't ask her.It had been four days since the both of them came to the basement. Since then, I had not seen or heard from Andre. My brother, though, was nice enough to send food to me so I wasn't left starving. But my bones were beginning to turn sore and I couldn't feel my legs anymore because it had been a little over a week since I had used them.The injury that I had sustained when Andre had punched me in the face had turned purple and I was afraid that it would soon get an infection.This point in my life has got to be the lowest point in my life since I became an adult. I had always fought so hard not to be that weak, helpless boy that I had been after my parents died.
TONY'S POVThe days went by slowly and slowly. It was as though time had stopped moving at its normal pace and the earth was now tired of going around.My newfound brother did the same thing everything day. He came into the basement I was in and told me the same old thing, then he would tell me about how he would ruin my life, and then he would.I was really starting to think that this whole thing was a farce and this guy was just bored.It was seven-thirty in the evening when Adriano walked into the basement. But this time it was different, he brought in Camilla with him.I sat up straight and looked at her."Baby." I said in a whisper. I wanted to run to her and pull her into my arms and kiss her like crazy but my hands were tied to the stupid chair.Camilla didn't look all that different but she had bags under her eyes and she looked tired. I knew she wasn't sleeping much and it was pr
TONY'S POVBeing tied up to a chair in a dark and creepy basement wasn't my idea of the perfect evening but that was what was happening and there was nothing I could do to change it.My mind was racing with endless possibilities of what this Adrian dude had against me but I could find none.I knew I had an endless list of people that hated me but I didn't know why Adrian would be on that list.I had been in the basement for over two hours according to the calculations I made in my head, it was probably inaccurate but it was just a guess. Adrian had gone off to God-knows-where and I was alone with two of his gigantic men."So do you guys by any chance have any idea of why your boss wants to kill me?" I asked because the place and become too quiet and frankly, I was getting bored."Shut up!" The biggest dude to my right said."Okay. Rude much." I muttered. There was no way I would get
~*~*~*~TONY'S POVI walked a couple of miles to the spot where they had asked me to wait for them. I was ten minutes early but it was better for me to wait for them than the other way around.I was becoming nervous with every second that passed by. I was so nervous and my legs felt like they were weak.I couldn't remember the last time that I felt this scared in a long time. The last time I felt like this was when the night my parents die and the world seemed to be crashing around me. Then, I was a scared eight-year-old and I wasn't strong enough to defend myself.Now, I am twenty-one years old standing in a foreign country and I am more scared than I was that night. This time, the life of the woman I love is in the hand of a lunatic that won't disclose his identity.I was just starting to feel like I was on the verge of a breakdown when I saw an SUV like the one that picked up Camil
TONY'S POVThe place was dark and cold and it was just me in the house. I screamed out Derek's name but he didn't answer. My heart was beating frantically and I didn't understand what was going on. I had only been gone for a few minutes to get some milk, how did everybody leave in that small space of time? Where did they even go to?I searched Derek's room but he wasn't there. I went to the kids' room but they weren't there either.All the alarms in my head went off and I was frustrated. I tried to call Derek and the other guys but none of the numbers were connecting. I knew instantly that something bad had happened to them. First, I lost Camilla and now I have lost the rest of the people that I love.My phone started to ring loudly. I looked at the caller ID and it was Adrian that was calling me. "You have them, don't you?" That was the first thing I said when I answered the call. I sounded defeated because I knew that there was no
