LORENZO POVThe FBI director did as told. Seeing the three of us dominating his wife’s ward, and knowing that she was even changed from the one he thought she’d be safe at, he didn’t have much of a choice but to get his ass moving. And from there on, we did a search of our own. Verzi had a few of his men flown in from Texas to give a hand, and everyone got to help. With the FBI and more than 100 of our men on the search, we were guaranteed to find her. Either by nook or crook.As for me, I was weak. I felt it. Everything in me was barely hanging on and I knew if we didn’t find her before the end of today, then something was going to happen to me. Call it intuition or some voodoo, but it was all over my body and I couldn’t just ignore the signs. From the hospital, Xander had us piled into his car and drove us out of the city. It didn’t take long before he rolled into some clean neighborhood with clean, lined trees on the sidewalks and children milling around. It was a peaceful place an

XANDER POV“They gave her a shot,”Ava’s voice called out from my office doorway. I nodded not bothering to look up from the pc in front of me. The sound of her heels against the wood flooring was heard as she delved deeper into the office until she stood in front of my desk. The scent of her strong perfume hit hard, penetrating through the haze I was in.“Her vitals are stable; she should be waking up soon. Although it would be better if she stayed in a coma for some time. Her body needs rest.” She explained, and I nodded still. Why were the numbers not adding up?She heaved a huge sigh before sitting in front of my desk and became still as death. That had me looking up from the work in front of me.“What?”“I don’t know how she does it. Being so strong and escaping death this multiple times? It’s like she has nine lives or some shit. No matter what happens, she always comes back.” She said in a low voice as if she was speaking to herself. I didn’t reply, there was nothing to say at t

CIELLO POVThey say love is the strongest factor in life.Of course, a hard nut like me never believed in that shit. Bazookas and grenades are the strongest factors in life because they bust with just a click, destroying everything in their vicinity. That was what I believed all these years. The love that was talked about in the movies and in novels never really fazed me, because to me it sounded like nothing but big BS.But then, I saw it with my own eyes.The moment SHE arrived in Dark Woods, she arrived with this enchanting vibe that just lit up the whole place. It was in the way that she accepted everyone without question or judging them. The sense of belonging that she always managed to give to everyone. Be a stinky motherfucker who sleeps with pigs at night, Senorita would accept you nonetheless. And my bosses, the kings I worshipped with everything inside of me, strong men who never bowed to anyone and had the world dancing in the palms of their hands, seeing them so humbled an

ISA POVLife.No matter how miserable and sorrowful it can be, the fact remains that is the gift bestowed to us by the most high. And it can never be changed that we only live once. I know I have cheated death quite a few times, but eventually, there will come a time when I shut my eyes, and they will remain shut forever. Maybe they would open, but not in the given lifetime.But now was not the time. Yet!So when I felt the consciousness slipping through and brightening the darkness I was in, I allowed it whole. The first thing I heard was the sound of the heart monitor beeping, as a sign of life. I didn’t waste time and quickly peeled my eyes open. For the first time in what felt like forever, I felt, alive. The horrors I have experienced came tumbling into my mind, attempting to drown me in great despair. But now, I was a phoenix reborn from the flames. I have been through hell and back and nothing was ever going to erase that or step in my way.I braced myself on my elbows and slowl

ISA POVDAY 2“Ari, you need to eat something.” Valerie called out gesturing to the food covered on the cart next to my bed. I didn’t reply, my mouth felt too heavy to even open. I rolled my eyes and turned to the side, then covered my head with the blankets and ignored her completely. I heard her giving out a loud sigh of defeat before she walked out of the room, not saying even a word. I wasn't moody, at all. I just needed to be alone. And luckily, someone understood the meaning of LEAVE ME THE HELL ALONE.~~~DAY 3“LEIGH-ARI, IT IS NOT TIME TO TAKE SHOWERS YET. YOU KNOW THAT.” Ava screamed from the door of the bathroom I found when I was parading the halls in the ungodly hour when everyone had gone to bed. The room where they have locked me in didn't have a bathroom inside, so I could only come out to have a nice good, cold shower to clear my mind. I didn’t pay her any attention and ignored the blood that oozed from the bandages around my waist, then watched with fascination as

XANDER POVThere comes a point in life where you are crippled by an intense sense of helplessness, not seeing the highly preached light at the end of the tunnel. You are standing in the midst of nothingness, vaguely aware of the problems and struggle around you. You can see the tears and hear the cries around you, but then this undying sense of defeat is just way too heavy to think through, nothing penetrates through it because you have no idea of what to do, or even where to start.It has been a whole month now. A whole month plus some days and Leigh-Ari haven’t said even a single word to anyone inside of this house. At this point, I was ready to do whatever it took to get her to talk. Even if she told me to chomp off my dick and feed it to dogs, I would do it in a heartbeat. Because no one knew what ran inside her mind every time she sat there, quiet and still as death without uttering a word to anyone. It was almost weary and eerie to be around her. She looked like someone who is s

VERNERO POV“Miss Jones, it’s so good to see you.”The little American woman gushed over Leigh-Ari who stood in front of her, beaming with the biggest smile etched on her face. Lorenzo, Xander, and I exchanged confounded looks as we all watched the mutual exchange between a gang of women and Leigh-Ari. She was smiling and laughing with them as if nothing had happened. It was as if there was this switch she flicked on and all of a sudden, she was a bubbly, happy person again. But something about the way she exaggerated it all told me it was all but a façade, and that she had a role to play. No matter how much we may try to get her to be her old self, there was never a time we were going to go back to those days. I just knew it. What had happened changed her completely, and I was dying to know how I could make everything right again. We were all dying. I could see it in everyone’s eyes; we were dying with helplessness and great defeat.“Everyone, meet Vernero, Lorenzo, Val, and Laura.

DISCLAIMERI AM SURE ALL OF YOU HAVE NOTICED, THAT ARI IS NOW BEING ADDRESSED BY HER REAL NAME. SO DON’T GET LOST IF YOU SEE HER IDENTITIES BEING LOOPED AS THE STORY GOES BY.RARE~~~LEIGH-ARI POVI stood on the terrace outside my bedroom facing the night sky and enjoying my bottle of whiskey. The glass was way too bothersome, and the liquor hit differently when I gulped it straight from the bottle. I had on my face, the biggest grin which I even thought my face was going to split into two. Me, motherfucking Leigh-Ari Montreal who grew up hell-bent about saving lives, either by nook or crook, a girl who would chomp off a damn head if anything got into my way of saving a life. I was always someone who would rain hell like a hurricane on anyone who told me anything about cartels because of how bloody they are. I used to flinch and shudder from the mere mention of cocaine, M&M, and shit. Yet here I was, with a smile of triumph after successfully cleaning 50 fucking thousand dollars, and

EPILOGUE*ONE YEAR LATER*LEIGH-ARI POV“The transplant was a great success and there were no signs of tissue rejection. We will be transferring her to the ward for further monitoring until she is good to leave the hospital.” The words rolled on my tongue smoothly as I kept my eyes on the folks in front of me. The small crowd broke into cries of happiness and expressed their heartfelt thanks to me, for saving the life of their loved one. The smiles on their faces were enough to light up the dark world. I left Stephanie with them and walked back to my office where I plopped myself on the small couch before letting my body relax after six whooping hours of surgery.My eyes flew across the office and landed on a big portrait on the wall, a picture of me and Laura that was taken when we were in Dubai, right before the twins found us, and turned my ass pink. A pang of dull ache hit me inside, prompting me to shut my eyes and focus on the small voice in my head that never died. It has been

LORENZO POVThug life.It was a different kind of fairytale they never showed you in movies. Or better yet, the ‘other’ side of fairytales they never delved deeper to portray. And now that I think of it, this world was indeed filled with more dipshits than I can possibly comprehend. For starters, in those little movies they all crowd together to watch, they never really tell the history of the villains. I get it, they are villains, they are the bad guys, the hated guys, and honestly; the reason behind so much hatred is understandable. But then again, it’s a little unfair that we never get to see their whole stories. So they go rogue, wanting to tell their own story, leaving behind them a trail of blood and open graves in the process.I was a villain myself, one of the bad guys. I was so used to this life that I was no longer phased by the idea of being normal. Like waking up and taking a train to work in the morning, and coming back at night to find a hearty dinner prepared by my wif

LEIGH-ARI POVThe rest of the day was spent with us slithering in the comfort of our bed, in a giant tangled mess of limbs. I was plowed to a point where I felt like my hoochie was on fire, scorching every little soft flesh to the inside. But luckily, the boys were lenient with me and didn’t try to overuse me. So we stayed there, just enjoying each other. The atmosphere created its own language, and they translated it. Everything was just so serene, so calm.And I finally like myself again. And damn, life has been like hell. I forgot how good it felt to just give up control and hand it over to somebody else. To be able to submit and be down to my knees, while being dominated in every possible way. It is true that even a superwoman sometimes needs a superman. And why wouldn’t I use them when I have three of them?“If this is how we make up, can we at least fight every time?” Xander purred hiding his face in the cradle between my boobs. A very unladylike snort came from me as I shook m

XANDER POVBack at the mansion, the tension between Ari and Verzi was so thick you could cut it with a night. For a successful mission like that one, you would have expected champaigns and a night of hot drunk sex till we couldn’t walk. Not only did we sabotage Oleg’s shipment that cost him millions, but we also managed to rescue some of the shit stashed in there and claimed it ourselves. And Enzo did as instructed by donating a million as soon as the word got out. I mean we were all righteous people who took care of their own, and nothing was even tracked back to us. Not that it would anyway, since we owned half of America as well as every inch of the public department that dealt with a lot of shit.Police, some media outlets, you name them.But all of that sense of triumph didn’t even make up for what had happened. And I hated every passing second of it. This wasn’t how it was supposed to be, this wasn’t how we were supposed to love. A day without talking to each other meant a dead

LEIGH-ARI POV Ava’s name faded with the wind, and nobody ever spoke of her ever again. I was afraid of what her death may do to Scar and what that may mean to his loyalty to us, but time proved that Scar was in this for life and there was nothing that could possibly happen in this life that would make him walk away from Alexander.“I owe him my life, he became the family I never had and gave me everything I have ever wished for.” Those are his words, and he lived the rest of his life trying to prove them. I felt stupid for even questioning his loyalty in the first place, but I couldn’t be sure, more because I had his sister’s blood on my hands. As much as we ignored it and never brought it up, Ava was his sister, they were blood. And blood is thicker than water.A few days went by with us watching over Oleg and his operations. We didn’t want to go head-on like headless chickens with no plan. Oleg was as cunning as it gets and I was not going to let him sidestep us and have us f

LEIGH-ARI POVI was in awe. I never knew that there were some people in this cruel world, who were very capable of living a lie and under a certain delusion for their entire life, believing that little voice in their heads while it continued spewing nonsense right into their brains for all days of their lives.But our dear Ava was living proof that some people, were just a pile of nutcases with nothing but crap running in their minds all day long. I seriously couldn’t bring myself to believe that she had fallen for that crap we said with Xander back at her hiding spot. Even an idiot would have figured out that the situation wasn't as it seems.She was a fuckin' traitor, who was on a run. Our sudden appearance had to say something to her. But nope. It didn't. For someone who had spent years in this kind of life, she was sure as hell as easy as it gets. Imagine if it had been Oleg who got to her... I went there expecting resistance, a bit of a fight; bloodied lips and aching muscles as

AVA POVThe phone dropped from my ear onto the table in front of me and all of a sudden, there wasn’t enough space in the vast roadside restaurant where I was. I shrunk into the corner booth where I was sitting and gently pulled over my scarf and slipped on my sunglasses.I managed to steer clear of the crowded places for 5 days, and in those 5 days, I was successful. I didn’t want to be found right now when I still hadn’t made a plan about my next move. Only God knows what was going to happen when they find where I am. So without further ado, I slipped the note into the bill and took off.I was the master of disguise, even if they had located me, they were going to have a hard time pinpointing me because I blended so damn well within the crowd. Walking to the small parking bay in front of the restaurant, I fished out the keys to the stolen Toyota Camry before hurriedly pulling out of the parking bay.My heart was pounding crazy, and it was as if it was inside of my mouth from how awf

SCAR POVWith a bitter taste in my mouth and a heavy heart, I stood on the terrace by the second floor and watched as the black G-wagon stretched out of the estate, taking off with a speed of light. I swallowed down the bile that was dancing on the surface of my mouth threatening to spill.The past few days have been nothing but a nauseating roller coaster of emotions, I have felt things I haven’t felt in all my life and it was fuckin' enough. I couldn't take up any more shit than I already have. Because within a mega pint of them all, there was this strong force that made me feel like I was sinking. My whole body was stiff and so were my insides. I don’t even know what it was, but it sucked elephant balls.I tried to accept with everything inside of me, to come to terms that Laura was gone and that there would never be one like her. But the more I thought of her, the more the hatred I had for Ava piled up inside of me. She was blood, we shared the same rotten womb and I watched her t

LEIGH-ARI POVThe day I rued the most arrived eventually. I woke up with a splitting headache and I was so sore and nauseous that I hated everyone and everything. I couldn't eat anything because whatever went into my mouth tasted so damn bitter that it made my stomach churn painfully. In a matter of days, I had lost a great deal of weight, and I am sure as hell I was no different from Morticia from Addams family. The cartoon version of course!Without further ado, I jumped into the shower and tried to keep myself on my feet the entire time while I cleaned up. It was nearly impossible,I was weak, my body was trembling violently because I haven't had a proper meal since 2000-and never. All I ever did was drink my own tears time and again. And the headache, it made me feel like I had died and sprung back to life.I was not feeling well at all.After washing up, I walked into the closet and pulled on my white slim-fitting jumpsuit and a white coat. I pulled on the white knee-length boot
