“Luca, I need you to go back to the safe house and I need you to inform Christian that Serena is with me.” Vince walked towards us and pulled me away from Luca.“W-what, I don’t get it?” Luca spoke as confused as I was.“I will hand her over to Fabio, all he ever wanted is Serena—he’ll put everythin

“I told the Lamberti’s and the Alfonzo’s that they had to give me one of their children, so they could experience what real lost felt like—and they gave me your brother, Beau.” He clenched his fists as he walked a circle around me.“It’s the name my deceased brother gave him, I was going to leave th
“What did you say?” He spat in my face. “I said they’re dead,” I whispered. Fabio pushed me away and burst out laughing as he stepped back to smack Vince’s shoulder. “Do you hear that Vince? Do you hear that?”“It seems to me like Christian has found his equal,” Fabio spoke as he put on some latex g

“So I just have to wait here for some more hours and trust that you will bring back my sister unharmed?” Emilio scoffed. “As you can see I don’t bail on my sister, or any family for that matter—so you don’t have to worry about that.” Beau glared at him.Christian gave Beau a pitiful look and felt so

Hey everyone,This is the end of Christian and Serena’s story. Thanks for following me on this journey, and please know I’m grateful for all of you.I remember freaking out over reaching 10K views, and somehow we ended up here. (!?) (Hopefully, more to come.)As I’m still new to this publishing styl
“Oh, right.” Stella clapped her hands when the girl finally released a loud cough. “I would like to introduce you to Oscar Morales’ daughter, Aria.” The Morales’ They were new in the city and led by Oscar Morales with the help of his mysterious only daughter, who I had never seen before. Today was
“Out and about.” I sighed, exhausted. “Drunk.” “Where’s your ex-fiancee?” Vince chortled, nudging Beau’s shoulder, and a sigh escaped from my brother’s lips. Not surprisingly, the relationship and engagement between my brother and Isobel didn’t last. All it took for him to break her heart was one

Hours had passed, but Christian had yet to move a muscle. Many had either left the graveside in tears or had stepped out to take a breather, but not Christian. “It’s okay to cry, Christian.” I wrapped my arm around him, leaning into his chest. “If you want to yell, bawl—punch someone…I’m here.” I s
“Thank you.” Cesca’s lips trembled in fear at the new nickname I had made up for her. “I appreciate that.” “Now that I know your mother will be in good hands, I can finally be at peace.” Lucio let out a heavy breath. “This is the happiest I’ve been in a while.” Those were the exact words he had sp
