RAVENNA~~~~~~~♤♤♤♤♤“It’s rare for things to be calm around here. It feels so strange,” Ravenna said. “That’s so true,” Zypher agreed. “The break was needed, and who knows? Maybe Fiore is dead. It’s been weeks since we returned from the Bahamas and he has done nothing.” “Nobody ask me anything. Just ignore me and act like you can’t see me,” Alaina said as she popped out of nowhere, taking a seat on a pool lounge chair. “I’m not sure that’s gonna be possible. Your tantrum is begging for attention. Now, I’m just gonna keep quiet and back away,” Zypher said, swimming backward so she was away from Alaina, who looked a second away from jumping her. “What happened to you?” I asked, from where I was positioned on the gigantic pizza pool float. “By the way, your idea to get this pool float is amazing.” Alaina cracked a smile. “Thanks. I had to promise Jacob and Andrea my first-born child just so they could help me get them home. My arms were loaded with cl

ZYPHER~~~~~~◇◇◇◇“What the hell is this bullshit, Anna? Why the fuck am I in here like some caged animal, and where the hell is my mom?” Anna shook her head at me, making clicking noises with her tongue. “So many questions. I’ll have you know that this was a collective decision the group made, so don’t try to make me feel bad.” “What the hell is going on?” I was having a bad feeling about this. Especially with my mother absent from the mansion. What did they have planned that involved me being held captive in a cage? “You’ll find out soon enough. You’ll have to know it was never my intention. See you in a couple of hours.” She left and a few minutes later, I heard the basement door open and footsteps as they approached me. Chloe came into view, and I sighed in relief. I really wasn’t in the mood for another chat with Anna. “What’s going on Chloe? What’s so urgent that I had to come here only for me to get thrown into a cell?” “I really

VALENTINO ~~~~~~~~♧♧♧♧♧♧“I did the nice thing by leaving you for almost two months. Now we can have that talk. I hope you’ve thought out where your loyalties lie now,” I said, sitting across from the boy I’d captured the night I’d shot Fiore. “Are you going to leave me if I tell you the truth?” He asked, placing his forearms on the table between us. With a smile, I shook my head. “Oh, make no mistake. You’re gonna die today. Your reply determines how quickly and what method I use.” “Then I ain’t telling you shit. I’m a dead man anyway, so what’s the point?” He spat. Carlo chuckled at the boy’s answer. “That’s what they all say until he finally breaks them.” “I must say, I admire your false bravado. Why did you choose to work for Fiore? You have a pregnant girlfriend who was kicked out by her parents when they found out she was dating a man like you. You’re just nineteen. You have a lot to live for. Even if it’s not for your sake, do it for your fa

RAVENNA ~~~~~~~♤♤♤♤♤“What a surprise to see you here. Are you here to apologize to Zypher?” I asked, leaning back in my chair with my feet propped on the desk. We were in the study, which I rarely used because Gina wanted privacy. “Apologize for what? Zypher got herself into this mess.” “But it would’ve been better if she had her mother firmly by her side.” Gina shook her head, her lips curling up in a wise smile. “You don’t understand. Zypher knew the implications for getting involved with Anthony, and she still did. At that point, I wasn’t a mother. I was a leader. The mother in me cried, but I had to be the leader for the people that took orders from me.” “So, what if you’re a leader? Your daughter comes first.” “You can choose what type of woman you want to be. A leader or a lover. You can’t be one and also be the other simultaneously. When love or any emotion at all affects the decisions of a woman, those decisions become selfish. “That’s

RAVENNA~~~~~~~♤♤♤♤♤“No.” A sob broke out of me as I took a seat on the chair next to the bed. “I’m fine, Ravenna,” Nana tried to reassure me, but I could see even smiling hurt her. “What happened? What did they say they wanted from you?” I asked, my vision blurry from the tears that threatened to fall out of them. “Nothing. I think they meant to scare me. I’m just glad that you weren’t around when this happened.” The tears I’d been trying to hold back broke free. Here she was with bruises covering her body and several broken ribs, but she was still worried about my safety. “I’m sorry this happened to you because of me.” “It’s not your fault.” “She’s right,” Uncle Leo said from the doorway. “Instead of crying, why not go out there and find the people who did this? Your tears won’t change anything.” He handed me a handkerchief to wipe my tears. “You two need to leave. I don’t want any more of this touching you two. Get someone to man

VALENTINO ~~~~~~~~“Now that the money is trickling in, how do you intend to clean it? It’s only a matter of time before IRS comes knocking on your door,” Anthony said, throwing a grape into his mouth. I pushed his legs off my desk, glaring at him. He flashed me a smile, grabbing a notepad and a pen from the table. “I’ve been thinking about that do. Considered a bunch of things.” “You should think fast. One doesn’t make billions overnight. It’s how the Costas take care of their dirty money. They put it into a business and poof. The money is cleaned. Matteo might have brought up the idea, but Leonardo nurtured the business. He’s a smart business manager if you ask me.” “I didn’t,” I said, dryly, but he continued like he didn’t hear me. “You should take a couple of lessons from him. Eighty percent of their money is clean, but that twenty percent could still fuck them over.” “Nothing the eighty percent can’t take care of. At this rate, they shouldn’t

VALENTINO ~~~~~~~~♧♧♧♧♧♧“Hello big brother,” I heard when I pressed my phone to my ear. I felt relief course through my system at the familiar voice. “Ciro. Thank goodness you’re not dead yet. Where the fuck are you?” “There’s no need to worry about me. I’m fine. I saw the man you put on my tail. He’s laying unconscious on the floor next to me. Not to worry. I didn’t kill him. He’s just having a nice nap.” “What the hell are you doing, Ciro? Come back home.” “I’m not a fucking kid. You might I don’t know shit about survival, but I do. I’ll be fine on my own. You’re independent, and I want to be like that too. That’ll never happen if I come back.” “Okay. Do you need money? Or arms? Anything at all?” “Yeah. I need your help with my houses. Maybe send a bunch of people to clean it out before it gets too dusty. And my cars, make sure they’re in working condition when I come back. Ferraris aren’t cheap, y’know,” he teased. Even though I couldn’t se

VALENTINO ~~~~~~~~♧♧♧♧♧♧“Hello, son. It’s been a while.” I whipped my head to the side immediately I heard the slimy voice that belonged to the son of a bitch who fathered me. “How did you get in here?” I asked, reaching for my gun. “No, no, no. You don’t want to do that. The man you have as a guard is a smart one. He knew what was at stake, so he let me in. Guess you do have quite a few loyal men who care about your life.” “It’s brave of you to walk in here. Nothing stops me from putting a bullet in your head.” “But a lot does. Ever heard of an organization called Daylight?” He asked, running his hands over my desk before taking a seat on a chair. What’s with them and criminal organizations? There seemed to be a lot of it these days. “Should that matter to me?” I asked, appearing bored when my mind raced at an astronomical rate, weighing the pros and cons of killing him right now. I had no idea how powerful ‘daylight' was.“It should b
