He was busy making the presentation for the next Hotel he was planning to open in California. It was an important deal for him as it will decide the partnership between his and German company who had a name for being in top. Rolling his shoulders back, his fingers went up behind his neck soothing the stiffness of it by massaging it gently. He was tried and on top of that still angry because he hasn’t caught the culprit who had invaded his warehouse. He lost a good fortune but anyway succeeded in fulfilling the shipment which was stolen from him. But the thought that someone was able to steal from Adriano Pietro didn’t let him sleep.

" Traitors die by my hand." He declared firmly pointing the gun at her whose eyes widened for a mere second before they returned back to their normal state."First I never worked for you so I am not a traitor and second I am not afraid of dying Adriano. I had seen enough death." She replied clamly as if she was not the one put at gunpoint. Daniel didn't dared to say anything after he heard the word traitor. This was unforgivable.Adriano glared at her and if looks could kill she would have already been under 6 feet of ground. Adriano locked his jaw at her nonchalant behaviour as she tilted her head in a questioning manner when his fingers stilled on the trigger.An ear deafing sound rang in the office followed by the loud shattering noise of the glass making her took a sharp and wavy breath at his action.

Who the f*ck you work for?"

Now, if you tell me the name little Jenna here won't be harmed ." Adriano has played his card once again. He always does that always bring her loved once in sick games of his.

Heart At Knifepoint VICTOR
Numb, that what Victor felt mostly all over his body. His hand on which a bullet was shot was not moving and he wondered did it was even attached to his body because he can’t feel a damn thing on it. A hiss left his bleeding lips as he tried to sit up straight, his body leaning heavily on the tree trunk. Every breath of his was remainder of the kicks he had gotten from Adriano from previous 20 minutes on his ribs every time he breathed, a pain shot up through his ribs.“Will you talk now?” Adriano asked calmly brushing his bloody knuckles on his khaki pants, not even sparing him a single glance.Victor laughed, his laughter mixed up with his coughed up voice as he spited blood on the floor. Edna took a deep calming breath at his act, her fist clenching at her sides looking at the shameful man still laughing in mirth.“No.” Victor rasped out in coarse voice, wincing slightly as his tongue brushed his

Adriano chewed out the word, his hands slipping from the hammer and grabbing Victor shirt jerking him towards him." I was in London, studying. But when I got back… I was left with nothing … You KILLED THEM ALL !!" Victor screamed and whimpered when he accidentally tugged at his hand which was nailed to the trunk.Edna furrowed her brows in confusion because she didn't get what Victor was telling."

EIGHT YEARS LATER - VIRGINIA, USA A frown was set upon Edna's lips, her brown hair rolled in a messy bun resting at the nape of her neck. Placing a hand on her hip she walked towards the two kids wrestling and rolling each other on the grass. " Damiano, let go of him this instant." Edna chewed out the words at the boy which was sitting on the stomach of the younger one, he stilled like a statue hearing her." Up!" Edna instructed in a harsh voice, when his blue eyes looked innocently at her. " Mama!" The boy whisphered softly reminding her of Adriano. He was just like his father. Ignoring her son, who was locking his fingers in front of him looking down at the ground like a culprit under his mother gaze, she crouched down in front of the younger one. " You okay, baby!" Edna asked her voice soft contrary to her previous harsh one. “Yes, aunt." The boy answered, his grey eyes looking at the worked up face of his aunt who was wiping the dirt from his chubby cheeks.

Adriano dropped in a crouch in front of a smirking Donatello. There was anticipation and anxiety thick in air, as everyone else held their breath waiting for the next move of their Don. " What makes you think that I don't have a backup plan too, Donatello?" there was a mocking edge to Adriano's tone as cocked his head to the side. Donatello furrowed his brow as Adriano gripped his left wrist hard, before unstrapping his nonno's watch. Grey eyed man pressed his lips in thin line, his stone cold features turning into confused one. " You think, only you are the one that can play games." Adriano kicked his brow up as he pulled out a small microphone chip from inside the vintage watch. " Too bad! You hadn't played with me." Adriano murmured twirling the chip around his cylindrical finger, stuffing his nonno's watch in his pocket. &

Ma'am. We should leave. It's about time." Peter spoke from a few distance away from her making her jump in air, startled." God! Peter! Make some noise next time." She exclaimed putting a hand on her chest, calming her frenzy heartbeat." My apologies." Peter bowed his head before taking firm steps and opening the door of the passenger seat." Please." He nodded his head, directing her to get inside the car.Edna shook her head before getting in, her heart squeezing in her chest as her mind wondered again and again towards Adriano and Daniel."

A low whisper catched the attention of the alpha male.His blue eyes flickered towards her brown one filled with anxiety, softening his features." You shouldn't be." His voice was firm and confident.Edna sighed standing up from the couch, taking small steps towards Adraino. Placing her palm flat on the desk she raised her body and settled there in front of him taking his cold rough hands in her small dainty ones." What if something goes wrong?" Her voice held fear, Adriano squeezed her hand assuring her." Nothing will go wrong Edna. Adriano's plan is flawless." Daniel pipped in the conversation from he was standing
Heart At Knifepoint EXTENDED HELP
Woods crackled, burning furiously providing warmth to the cold surrounding. Heat seeped through the skin of the man, sitting on the chair at a foot distance but it failed to provide warmth to his cold heart. Grey eyes turning amber as they looked at the dancing dangerous flames.The creaking sound of the door notified him of the presence of the owner of the house. Donatello put his elbow on his knees, stapling his fingers together, he rested his chin on it." How is your wound?" His deep voice resonated in the small living of the cabin.Valerio who was busy in his phone, reeked back in surprise, barely held himself from jumping." Will live." Charcoal eyes narrowed watching the back of the elder man.Valerio hadn't told him about his hideout but Donatello knew about it anyway. So, he dropped the idea of asking him how he was aware

Twisting the doorknob he entered the lavish bright room, the interior of the room definitely matched with the persona of the person it belonged to." Signora, you called for me?" Dobatello questioned, hands behind his back, fingers locked together." Si." Sienna gave a nod in his direction along with a warm smile.That smile, which was the only thing that kept his otherwise dead heart alive." Show her the room. She will be staying with us." Sienna told the maid before lovingly tapping the hand of the young girl who was sitting in front of her.Donatello observed the girl as she stood up. It was Stella, the wife of Carlo.

Daniel pressed his ear on the wooden door at the end of the hallway.“ Someone is inside.” Daniel whispered in a hushed voice, to which Fabio nodded.Taking their position, Daniel put his hand on the doorknob. Inhaling a breath, he twisted it but he was not prepared for what was waiting for him behind that door.“ Hello, Daniel.” The heavy baritone voice of Valerio welcomed them.A gasp left Fabio eyeing the man clad in black standing in front of the man who was gagged, without they could have as much as blink.
