Captive Affair Chapter 37
I was exhausted and my back hurt. I hadn't left Gianni's side in days.Needing a bath, I decided to go home and Luca was happy to take me.I hurriedly got ready to go back to the hospital.But as I was walking out of the room, I saw Gianni standing at the stair case."What are you doing? You've barely healed!"He smiled as he walked over to me, "I want to be home with you.""But, Gia-""No. The doctor said it's fine.""Only because he's terrified of you!"He chuckled as I walked towards him and wrapped my arms around his neck."I want to speak to the girls, I wanted you to be with me.""Sure, but are you up for it now?""I am." He took my hand in his and we left the mansion. I wasn't sure why I was feeling as nervous as I did as we neared the little house.When we walked in, all of the ladies sat in the living room."Ladies. Kinley and I have been talking and she's shed some light on a few things. I'm terrifying, I realise this. And I don't want this to be a reason you stay on as dan

I was sitting out on the porch, enjoying the fresh air while Gianni was in a meeting when Talon walked out."Mind if I offer you some company?" He asked, taking a seat before I had even responded."I guess not.""You told Gianni to let the girls do their own thing?"I nodded, "Yes.""And he did it?"I nodded again."I don't mean this in a disrespectful way, but he is really pulling out all the stops to get you into his bed." I flushed thinking of our time on the yacht, "I'm sure that isn't what it is."Talon scoffed, "Don't fall for his act. He doesn't really give a damn about you, Kinley."I sighed, since Gianni and I had slept together nothing had changed much in his attitude towards me, so I was sure Talon was wrong. Not that I was going to tell him that, I didn't want to discuss my intimate life with Talon."Tatum is coming over soon. You can ask her, he made her believe she was the only woman on earth. And then, when he got what he wanted, he discarded her. Just how he does wit

•KINLEY•I couldn't believe he had locked me in. Was I like some sort of pet to him?Did he really think he could have me and Billie?My head was reeling with thoughts over this.I heard the door unlock and jumped to my feet.To my surprise, it was Talon who walked in and not Gianni."Are you okay?"I shook my head, "No. Why is he doing this? He refuses to let me leave, but his making plans to see his ex!"Talon sighed, "I'm sorry, Kinley, this is why I was trying to warn you. This is what he does. Even right this minute he was busy making plans with Billie...I'm sorry to have to tell you this, because I don't want to hurt you. But you should know."Without warning the tears started to flow and I sat down on the bed, my face in my hands.I was so embarrassed. How could I have been so stupid to believe that he would suddenly want to be with only one woman?"I'm sorry, Kin." Talon sat down beside me and rubbed at my back."I was so stupid, Talon. This is all my own fault. I believed him

Sitting at a beautiful brass table in Giovanni's back yard, I nursed a cup of tea in my hands.I had been here for two days and Giovanni had been very understanding as to my silence.But this morning he had brought me out a cup of tea with his and taken a seat.Although he sat silently, I knew he was curios as to what was going on."Gianni has phoned a few times." He announced."I guess you know it all then?" I asked.Luca took a seat at the table too."I would prefer to hear your side, Kinley."I looked over at Luca before starting to explain. I told him everything that had happened, including about the FBI.By the time I was done, I was in tears again, "I wasn't going to turn on him, I swear.""I believe you.""But he won't." Giovanni sighed heavily, "He came to see me before he was shot. He wanted his grandmother's ring. It's been in our family for many generations. He planned on giving it to you."I gasped, "What? That must have been the surprise he was talking about."He nodded

Luca was taking me back to the mansion. A part of me didn't want to make a return, but I did miss Gianni.I also wanted to confront Talon as to why he had said Gianni was making plans with Billie, when that seemed to be the complete opposite of what had happened.I hadn't told Gianni I would be returning, it was my attempt at surprising him.But when I walked in, the smile on Talon's face told me he was up to something."You're back.""Yes. Is Gianni in his study.""He is. Billie is here."I forced my smile to remain in place, "Lovely, hopefully he is taking my advice and treating her well."I could see the smile on Talons face falter for a brief moment.Luca followed me up the stairs and I didn't bother knocking on the door before walking in.Billie was sitting on the sofa while Gianni leaned against his desk.His eyes lit up and he smiled as I walked over to him, his arms immediately wrapping around me."My love, are you back?"I nodded, leaning up to give him a brief kiss, "I'm bac

•KINLEY•Keeping a close eye on Talon, it was clear that he was up to something. He was acting strange, but I couldn't quite out my finger on it.I sipped on my coffee while I waited for Gianni, we were going to the hospital this morning for the test results from Billie's paternity test.Gianni was sure the baby wasn't his, but I wasn't. Billie obviously knew that the baby was his, the way she acted left no room for mistakes. She knew what she was doing.Taking another sip of coffee, I frowned over at Talon, "Talon? What is going on with you? You're so jumpy, and can barely stay still."He seemed surprised that I had noticed this, his brows shooting up, "Oh? I'm wondering about this paternity test. God knows we don't need Billie sticking around."I looked down at my cup, Luca had informed me that he had seen Talon speaking to her, so why was he acting like he didn't like her?"Well, there's no use worrying about it, is there? Let's wait and see what the tests say.""She's trouble, Ki

•TALON•"Moving in is genius. Kinley is insecure, and no matter how much she claims to trust him, having you around all the time will definitely put a strain on their relationship." Billie had told me of her suggestion to move in, and I thought it was a perfect idea. I had gone over to her loft to discuss our plans.With her involved I was confident that I would be able to put enough strain on Kinley to have her leave. I knew that once she was away from Gianni, I could use her vulnerability to my advantage. Although the end goal was to take Gianni out of the picture completely, I wanted to make him suffer miserably first.Kinley was his week spot, to see her with me would crush him. And once he was an emotional wreck, I would take everything else from him too."Hey!"I jumped slightly at Billie's loud voice, "What?""What are you thinking about? I lost you there for a second."Billie wanted Gianni and power, so I had no desire to discuss my plans with her."Sorry, I was thinking of

•GIANNI•"Where the fuck is she?!" I screamed, barely noticing the pain it caused the wound on my head. I angrily swatted away the doctors hand who was trying to clean the bleeding wound.Luca looked away at my outburst while Talon paced, barking orders through his phone to my men.I had woken hours earlier after the accident to find myself back at home, my doctor waiting for me.Luca was pretty banged up, but what had really taken me by surprise was walking into the living room to find him crying like a child.Luca was a big, bulky man and I had never seen him express such hurt in all the years he had worked for me.Seeing him, I immediately knew something was wrong with Kinley. The two of them had formed a strong friendship over the last few months.When he had told me he had lost conciseness as she was being pulled from the car, I lost it."Luca!" I barked.He looked up, "Yes, boss?""It's not your fault." He looked away again, I knew this was killing him just as it was killing m

•GIANNI•"Where the hell is Renato? That kid is always late to something."Kinley chuckled, "He texted me, he's just picking up his girlfriend."I shook my head, he had been talking about this girlfriend for a while now but we had yet to meet her.Today was the big day.I looked over at Luca standing in front of the barbecue.Ripley was sitting busy typing on her phone. I couldn't believe both of my kids had grown up and I had been blessed enough to see them grow.If Fin and Luca hadn't done what they did for me, I may not have had the privilege of having these years to watch my son and daughter grow into a man and woman.We invited Fin for this barbecue, but he was away undercover for work so he wasn't able to make it.I looked over at Kinley and my mind went back to that night all those years ago at the shipping yard.She had run over to me in such a panic when she heard those gunshots. She thought I was shot.In actual fact, it was Fin who shot one of the men guarding Martha.After

•KINLEY•I pulled my phone out while telling Luca the truth about what I had been up to with Hilton.Now that I was aware of the reason he was doing what he was, I was sure we could still trust him.We just needed to help him make sure Martha was safe."Who are you calling?""Fin. I have an idea that will help all of us.""Kinley? Do you have news?""I do. But I need you to meet me, and get Gianni here too." I gave him the location and hung up."Gianni is going to skin me alive, why are you bringing them here? I trusted you with this.""You trusted me for a reason, Luca. You know we would never let anything happen to Martha. I just wish you would have told us what was going on sooner. A lot of this mess could have been avoided.""Kinley, they have my wife. I couldn't risk her life. I don't even want to do this right now. If they kill her-""They won't, okay? Trust us, please."Luca looked around as if he was worried someone was looking at us, "If they find out that I'm telling you, th

•KINLEY•"So? What's the plan here?"Gianni was already in planning mode, "We tap his phone. I'll put someone on him to follow him. We can go to him with these calls, but he can play it down without any real evidence. Once we have evidence, we confront him."Fin nodded, "Got it, I'll get the tap, you have someone follow him."Gianni nodded, "Sounds good. I'll get onto that immediately. Kinley, I don't want you leaving the house unless it's with me. Understood?"I nodded, but I had no plan of listening. I still had to meet with Hilton and see if I could find anything out.I glanced at Fin and he looked away from me, he knew what I was thinking about, I could see it by the way he looked at me.Now I needed a plan to get out of the house without Gianni stopping me.And knowing Gianni, that wasn't going to be easy.I got to my feet and walked out, going downstairs where I found Luca about to leave. "Where are you off to?" I asked, fighting the urge to attack him in anger."Got a lead." H

•KINLEY•With the baby bottle in hand, I made my way to the kitchen, pausing just outside the doorway when I heard Luca on a call."Well, she didn't say a damn word to me about being there okay? No, I'm telling you the truth. I'll do my best, but I'm not making any promises. Yes, I know. Thanks for the reminder." I walked in just as he turned to look at me."I'll call you back, Martha," he cut the call and smiled at me, "Gianni on daddy duty?""Yeah. What's up? That sounded serious?""Oh, uh," he looked down at his phone with a frown, "Martha. She has some issues with her sister that she wants me to help with. She's, uh, getting herself involved with the wrong crowd.""Oh no, I hope it works out. Do you want me to talk to Gianni to give you some time off to sort things out?""No, it's nothing that serious. I just need to find out if she was at that cop bar near the precinct last night with her boyfriend."I frowned, "Cop bar? I thought you said she was involved with the wrong crowd?"

•KINLEY•I sat in the courtroom biting my nails while waiting to hear if the judge was going to allow Gianni back out on bail while the investigation was ongoing, or if he would be remanded.Fin and King were seated beside me, Luca near the back.Billie was at the mansion watching the kids.I breathed a sigh of relief when the judge said Gianni could have bail.It was a large amount, but I knew we had it.I rushed to Luca to arrange the payment and waited outside with Fin and King for it to be taken care of."At least he's coming home," Fin said.I nodded, "Yeah. But we still have to pinpoint who it is behind this, and a way to stop it."Fin started pacing, "Detective Hilton is trying to take down the big fish like Gianni to exhilarate his career. I bet that if we put enough pressure on him, we can make this all go away.""But is he the type to let it all go away?" I asked.King shrugged, "If we find the sweet spot, yes. And they all have a sweet spot. We just have to find his."I nod

•KINLEY• "You should go home and get some sleep," Luca suggested. I curled my legs under me on the hard steel chair, "Not until they let me speak to him." "Kinley, come on. We can come back." "I don't want to go anywhere until I've seen him," I looked at my watch, "We've been here for hours. How long is this going to take?" "It takes as long as it takes. They may not even allow you to see him at all until he goes to the judge." "I don't get it. Barney has been dead for months. Why now? So long after his death. How did he rig it up to get the information about Talon sent to them? He was barely even involved in what happened. How did he even have the proper information?" Luca shifted uncomfortably in his chair, "Kin, this is not the best place to talk about that. Can we go across the street?" I looked in the direction of the interrogation room, "Yeah. Let's go. I could use another cup of coffee." We went across the street and ordered coffee, I also ordered a toasted cheese sandw

•KINLEY• I grinned triumphantly, Ripley had finally fallen asleep. Until Luca barged in, that is. "Kinley!" I turned to glare at him, "Could you shut up? I just got her to sleep." "That's going to be the least of your worries. Gianni was just arrested." "What?" I was almost sure I hadn't heard him correctly. "They barged in here with a warrant of arrest. Some new guy trying to make a name for himself." "What was he arrested for?" "Murder. Of Talon." This was getting more ridiculous by the second. "Excuse me? But that was ages ago. How would they even know about that?" "It looks like Barney was looking out for himself right to the end. He rigged it so that all the information was sent to this detective if anything happened to him." "That doesn't make any sense. Barney has been dead for months. Almost a year." Luca shrugged, "That's all I know. Why don't you go down to the station and I'll get a lawyer to meet you. When Billie's up and watching the kids I'll come down there
Captive Affair Chapter 126
~A FEW MONTHS LATER~ •KINLEY• My eyes were blindfolded as Gianni guided my steps. "If something jumps out at me, I swear I'll kill you!" I threatened playfully, one hand on my large belly. "Relax, nothing is going to jump out at you." He stopped, his hands on my shoulders, "Okay, take off the blindfold." I whipped off the blindfold and gasped, my hands going to my mouth in shock at what I was looking at. We stood in the front yard of the mansion which had burnt down. Only now it was rebuilt. "You had it rebuilt?" I couldn't believe it. "Yes. That's what I've been busy with for the last eight months. I know you've been wondering why I've been so secretive." My eyes filled with tears as I was overwhelmed by emotions. I spun around and wrapped my arms around his neck, "Thank you!" "Anything for you, baby. There are a few changes, like Renato's room. And the nursery for Ripley when she's born. I've also made sure the place is baby and toddler-proof." He looked pretty pleased wi
Captive Affair Chapter 125
•GIANNI•I sat with Renato on my lap while watching Kinley swim. A small smile played on my lips at the peaceful moment.It was nice to experience life like this, without the intense adrenaline of the mafia on my back.I texted Luca to find out how my surprise was coming along. I knew how important that mansion was to Kinley, so I had a team working on rebuilding it as close to the first one as possible."What are you smiling about?" Kinley asked as she came over, she kissed Renato on the head before reaching down and kissing me."I can't tell you or it won't be a surprise anymore. Do you want to go to dinner tonight?"Kinley nodded, "That will be nice. Should we invite Luca and Martha? I wanted to invite Billie, but I don't think that will be fair to her with the recent loss.""We can. You should call Billie, you know she won't hate you. She doesn't blame you for this. She knows and understands the way these things go, and she knows that this isn't on you."She sighed, "I know. But s
