Zoey p.o.vSoon after, the sound of the car stopped, obviously right in front of whatever building we are in. It doesn’t seem like a warehouse or an apartment, it seems like it was specifically designed for this suppose.Footsteps approach and soon enough, they emerge. Their presence filling up the room instantly, Vincenzo, Dario, and Dante Alfonso walked in. These names have wrecked havoc in the mafia world once upon a time, instilling terror in the hearts of their rivals. And even when times have changed and age taking a toll on them. They still had the spirit and terrifying aura with them.Roman’s men fling to action, five of them holding us with at gun point, even when our movements are limited by their electrified chains. Some shielding Roman, positioning themselves in front of him pointing their guns at their targets, while some stood beside him equally in a defense position.The rest surrounded dad, and his brothers, and also in their defense position. This look like some sor
Third-person point of view.All hell breaks loose, Marco had gone berserk, his eyes blazing with fury seeing his woman in such painful condition didn’t only instill fear in him, it also made him lose his sanity.A commotion has erupted, shouts and bullets filled the air. The first bullet Marco released hits Giorgio square in the head, Giorgio body immediately slump to the ground lifeless.Roman saw that the situation isn’t under his control to begin with, wants to retreat, but it was already too late. He has brought out the beast in Marco, and there’s no way he would escape from his end.“Going somewhere?” Marco growled, jumping in front of Roman. Marco moved like lightning, stunning Roman, Marco was a few feet’s away the last time he saw him. “You were pleading for death the moment you decide to mess with me, and then I decided to grant your death wish when you put my woman in harms way.” Marco snarled, and launched himself at Roman.His fist flew in the air, connecting with Roman ja
Camila POV I couldn’t shake off the feeling of Matthew’s fingers on my skin as we drove away from the school. We didn’t speak, the silence between us thick with tension. I stared out the window in attempt to distract myself, but I kept having flashes of our little moment. Does it mean he has feelings for me? Because clearly he was carried away by the hit of the moment. I screamed inwardly, frustrated. Every time I tried or thought I have figured him out, he comes up with a new and heart wrecking behavior. Matthew’s phone buzzed, breaking their silence. He glanced at the screen, then quickly answered the call through the Bluetooth in his ear. “Don.” His voice firm. I turned to him, curious. I wondered what he’s going to report back to Marco. “Yes, I’ve got her.” Matthew said, his eyes flicking to me before returning to the road. “Yes, Don.” Immediately, he hanged up the call, he turned on a different direction that is clearly not heading home. “Where are we going?” I a
Camila p.o.v“Where are you.” I choose to ignore the message glaring at me. I've received tons of missed calls and messages from this same person.The man I've grown to love with every fiber in my being, it stared as plain admiration and flared into fully grown love.Matthew, yes him.I want to be alone to process my thoughts, I've had feelings for Matthew since I was sixteen. My heart picks him, since I was little, I've always had him in my heart, yet he doesn't seem to notice.He's here to pick me up from school as usual, but must be pissed and worried as he couldn't find me. I had replied one of his messages telling him I needed to be left alone, but he's not having it and kept on blaring my phone with messages and calls.'I'M TRACKING YOU." He threatened.No! That's not an empty threat, he meant what he said, he has done it before, and he will do it again. Again, I chose to ign
Camila POV “Ow!” I colluded with Matthew’s broad back, it wasn't intentional. I wasn’t paying attention, looking around I noticed we are in the parking lot. No, not the regular school parking lot, but the reserved car park for professors. Yeah, that’s one of the reasons the other students calls me a spoilt brat. Matthew turned around, I step back feeling dazed “I’m sorry, I wasn’t looking.” I quickly recovered. I shook my head, trying to clear it off the cobwebs. I tried walking around to enter the car, but he gripped my right arm holding back from moving away. “You were ignoring me.” He stated. He knew I was ignoring him, I mean it was quite obvious and for obvious reasons. His hold on my arm was doing dirty to my head, my mind was messy as all I could think of is how his touch wakes up every nerve in my body. I shook my head inwardly and tri

Melanie p.o.vThe van ride to a stop and we alighted the van, I was met with a view that left me breathless. I felt a sense of awe at the sprawling mansion standing proudly under the sun.The two-story estate was a masterpiece of modern luxury, with clean lines, high ceilings and expansive windows that seemed to stretch on. The exterior was clad in warm, honey-colored stone, complemented by rich wood and meticulously manicured lawns.A circular driveway made of polished black stone swept up to the entrance, where a pair of imposing wooden doors stood guard. The surrounding grounds were immaculately landscaped, with perfectly trimmed hedges and a sprinkling green garden adding a touch of vibrancy to the scene.“Wow.” I whispered.I felt a lot out of my depth as I gaze up at the grandeur of the mansion. Who lives here? Obviously a filthy billionaire, I shrug.“Come along.” The guard’s voice cut into my thoughts. “We
