See who had been trailing behind to ensure they wouldn’t be caught off guard. The tables turned in an instant as gunfire erupted from both sides.

Selene dove behind a stack of crates, her heart racing as bullets whizzed past her. She quickly assessed the situation: her team was outnumbered, but with their reinforcements, the odds weren’t as dire as they had initially seemed.

"Leo, take the left flank!" she shouted, her voice cutting through the chaos. "Mira, cover the rear!"

Leo nodded, his movements swift and calculated as he led a small group to attack from the side. Mira stayed close to Selene, her aim precise as she picked off enemies one by one.

Damien, however, remained calm in the middle of the fray. He barked orders to his men, his confidence unshaken even as his forces began to dwindle.

"You think this will stop me?" Damien yelled over the gunfire. "This is just the beginning!"

Selene’s blood boiled at his arrogance. She broke from her cover, charging toward him w

    The air in the hideout was tense, filled with an uneasy silence that seemed to press on everyone’s shoulders. Selene sat at the head of the table, a map of the city spread out before her. Red markers indicated the known locations of Damien’s operations, but there were gaps and dangerous blind spots they hadn’t been able to infiltrate. Mira leaned against the wall, arms crossed tightly over her chest. "We can’t just wait for Damien to strike again. He’s regrouping, and we all know he’s planning something big." Selene nodded, her fingers tracing one of the red markers. "That’s why we need to move first. We’ll hit this location tonight. If Damien’s there, we’ll end this once and for all." Leo frowned, his gaze flickering between Selene and the map. "It’s risky. He’ll be expecting us to retaliate." "Which is why we’ll be unpredictable," Selene replied, her tone firm. She looked up at the team, determination blazing in her eyes. "We’ve come too far to stop now." As night fell, th

    The morning sun bathed the city in golden hues, casting long shadows on the empty streets as Selene stood on the balcony of their new safehouse. The weight of the past months seemed to have lifted, replaced with the promise of a future she had only dreamed of. The battle with Damien was over. The victories, the sacrifices, the pain they had all led to this moment.Beside her, Leo stood in quiet contemplation, his hand gently resting on her shoulder. They had fought side by side through unimaginable trials, and now, as the world began to heal around them, they could finally breathe easy. The victory had come at a great cost, but they had emerged stronger, united."It's over, Selene," Leo whispered, his voice full of both relief and disbelief. "We did it."Selene smiled softly, turning to face him. "We did. But we wouldn't be without each other."Her gaze softened, memories of the dark times still fresh in her mind, but now tinged with a sense of peace. "I thought I'd lost everything,"

    The clock ticked past midnight, and I lay still fast asleep, unaware of the world around me. After a long and exhausting day, I craved the calmness of a peaceful rest at night. Suddenly, a heavy weight pressed down beside me on the bed, sinking my petite form deeper into the mattress. Panic surged through me, and I bolted upright, my eyes darting through the darkness of the room. Those intense, bright blue eyes pierced through the gloom, staring back at me with mixed emotions I knew all too well but still couldn’t quite understand. I didn’t need to turn on the light to know who it was. I knew it was him—his touch, his scent, his eyes, and the heat radiating from his body. “Why are you wearing panties?” he growled dangerously in my ear, sending a shiver of fear down my spine. “Did you forget that I told you not to wear them and to always be ready for me in our bed?” My heart raced. I didn’t want to provoke my husband, his rage was an unpleasant one. Alessandro Valentino, the Mafia l

    A knock on the door jolted me awake the next morning, I opened my eyes, a wave of panic washed over me. Alessandro’s arm was wrapped tightly around me, pinning me against his hard chest. The warmth of his body was unmistakable, yet it confused me. Why was he holding me like this when he barely seemed to tolerate me? Did he get so drunk last night that he forgot his usual scorn?I shifted just slightly, careful not to wake him, and risked a glance at his face. My gaze traced the sharp angles of his jaw and those powerful shoulders I’d seen dominate so many rooms—and so many people. Despite the bitterness i felt in our marriage, I couldn’t deny how magnetic he looked, even in sleep. His muscular arms were wrapped around me like a cage, each tattooed line height​en​ing his strength. His thick thighs tangled with mine, and the heat of his body pressed against me in a way that had my heart racing. I bit back a sigh, forcing my gaze away from his closed eyes, strong, and calm face. I felt t

    I hurried to the kitchen, hoping to get breakfast on the table before Alessandro accuses me of delaying. The last thing I wanted was to give him another reason to be mad at me. But suddenly, i felt dizzy again, my vision blurred, I had to stop and grab the railing, breathing through the wave of nausea. The early stages of pregnancy were already taking its toll on me, and I wasn’t sure how much longer I could hide it.After a few moment of trying to steady myself, I pushed forward, managing to reach the kitchen and start cooking. We had servants, but they treated me just as poorly as he did, cold and indifferent because my own husband didn’t respect me. But I was enduring it all for one reason—my baby. This tiny life growing inside me gave me hope, dreams and a reason to keep going. Even if Alessandro didn’t love me, I’d always loved him, and I couldn’t help but believe that this miracle baby was a chance for us. Maybe once he held our child in his arms, he’d see me differently, maybe

    Alessandro's voice sliced through the air, cold and sharp. “In your own words, wife,” he sneered, his smirk loaded with threat. My throat tightened, but I managed to stammer, “N-no!”His gaze drilled into mine, victorious. “Exactly. And that’s the only answer I expect from you,” he drawled, each word heavy with contempt. Just then, Maria, standing off to the side, let her words slip in a hateful mutter, “Then… whose child is it?” She feigned an innocent expression, quickly backtracking with, “I… I didn’t mean to say that.”Her words hit their mark, lighting a dangerous fire in Alessandro’s eyes. He seized my face, fingers digging painfully into my skin. I felt like he might snap me in two. Leaning in close, his voice dropped to a venomous whisper. “If I find out you’re carrying another man’s child…” he warned, his tone oozing danger, “I’ll kill you and that bastard baby.” My heart sank, but I knew better than to try to defend myself. No explanation would satisfy him; I could feel it.

    Enzo PovI leaned against the bar, nursing a glass of scotch, watching the chaos unfold around me with Maria by my side. The moment Vanessa planted a kiss on Alessandro, the flash of cameras erupted, capturing the scene from every angle. Within seconds, it was everywhere—social media, news feeds, you name it. But no one bothered to catch what happened right after. Alessandro stepped back, pushing her away with a gentle but firm hand, his voice dropping low, cold, and clear."Don't do that again. I’m a married man," he warned.I doubt anyone heard her murmured apology, and it didn’t look like Alessandro was going to set the record straight either. That Casanova reputation? It was exactly the image he wanted, a perfect smokescreen to keep his wife safe. The last thing he needed was anyone thinking she mattered to him, making her an easy target for anyone wanting to get at him. He was known for bringing anyone but his wife to these parties, making sure people thought she was nothing to h

    Aria sat quietly on the plane, the hum of the engines a relaxing backdrop to her racing thoughts. She stored one hand protectively over her belly, feeling the tiny flutter of lifestyles inside her. Her mind replayed the occasions of the past few days, a whirlwind of worry, betrayal, and heartbreak. But now, because the aircraft soared excessively above the clouds, she allowed herself a moment of desire. This turned into a new start for her and her infant.As the plane touched down in New York, Aria felt a mixture of excitement and tension. She had never been to the town before, and the bustling airport was overwhelming. She amassed her baggage and stepped outdoors, the cold December air hitting her cheeks and making her shiver. She hailed a cab and gave the motive force the address of a small apartment she had found online. It wasn't a whole lot, however, it would be a safe place to begin over.The rental became tiny, with peeling paint and a faint odor of mildew, but it was hers. Ari

    The air in the hideout was tense, thick with suspicion. Selene had barely slept, her mind replaying Victor’s warnings and the events of the previous night. Every glance exchanged among the team seemed loaded with unspoken accusations. The walls of trust that once bound them together were crumbling, brick by brick. Leo entered the room, his face etched with concern. "Selene, we need to talk." Selene folded her arms, her gaze unwavering. "About what?" He hesitated, then closed the door behind him. "Victor’s presence is causing more harm than good. Mira’s on edge, and the others are starting to question your decisions." Selene’s jaw tightened. "And you? Are you questioning me too?" Leo stepped closer, his voice soft but firm. "I trust you. Always. But I don’t trust him. You’re letting him stay here, and we don’t even know if he’s telling the truth." Selene sighed, the weight of leadership pressing down on her. "I don’t trust him either, but if there’s even a chance he knows s

    The tension within the hideout had grown unbearable. Every glance felt scrutinizing, every word dissected for hidden meanings. The idea of a traitor among them was like poison seeping into their unity. Selene sat in the corner, her arms crossed, trying to piece together the events at the warehouse. The man’s cryptic words haunted her: “Someone close to you.” Leo placed a cup of tea on the table in front of her, his expression soft but laced with worry. "You’ve been quiet since last night. What’s on your mind?" Selene shook her head, avoiding his gaze. "Just trying to make sense of it all. If there’s really a mole, they’ve been hiding in plain sight. And that terrifies me." Leo crouched beside her, his hand brushing hers. "We’ll figure it out. But we have to stick together, Selene. Doubting each other will only make us weaker." His touch sent a wave of warmth through her, a rare reprieve from the chaos around them. For a brief moment, she allowed herself to lean into his presen

    The air was tense as Selene paced back and forth in the dimly lit cabin they had chosen as their temporary hideout. The events of the last mission had left the group battered and divided. Trust, which had been their strongest weapon, was now fragile. Selene clenched her fists, her mind racing with thoughts of betrayal. Leo watched her from the corner, his gaze soft but worried. "Selene, you need to rest. We can't think straight when we're this wound up." Selene stopped and turned to him, her voice sharp. "Rest? How can I rest when someone out there is feeding information to our enemies? Anton’s death should have ended this, but it's like the nightmare won’t stop." Mira sat at the table, her fingers tapping nervously against her coffee cup. "We have to figure out who’s behind this. The ambush at the docks wasn’t random. Someone knew exactly where we’d be." As the group debated, a heavy silence fell over them. Suspicion lingered in every glance. The team had always relied on eac

    Smoke filled the air as the confrontation with Anton’s men reached its peak. Selene steadied herself, her breathing ragged, as she scanned the advancing group. Anton’s smug smile only fueled her determination. Leo stood beside her, his knuckles white as he gripped his weapon, while Mira leaned weakly against a tree, still recovering but clutching a dagger. "Ready to die for this?" Anton called out, his voice laced with mockery. Selene’s eyes narrowed. "I’m ready to fight for what’s right. Can you say the same?" Anton’s men began to spread out, forming a semicircle around them. The tension was palpable, the only sounds were the crackle of flames from the explosion and the distant rustling of leaves. Leo nudged Selene. "We need to split their focus. If we stay bunched up, we’re sitting ducks." Selene nodded, her mind racing. "You take the left flank. I’ll handle the right. Mira, stay hidden and only attack if you have a clear shot." Mira nodded weakly, her eyes filled with d

    The forest was deathly quiet after the ambush. Selene and Leo moved cautiously, their weapons drawn, scanning the shadows for any signs of danger. The betrayal by Elias had left Selene’s heart fractured, but there was no time to dwell on it. Every step forward was a gamble, but staying still was no longer an option. Leo walked ahead, his sharp gaze darting from tree to tree. "We need to find a secure location before they regroup. Anton won't let this go." Selene followed closely, her thoughts a whirlwind of emotions. Anger simmered beneath her skin, bubbling over every time she replayed Elias's betrayal in her mind. Yet, a sliver of doubt remained. Was his betrayal absolute, or was there something more to his actions? "You’re too quiet," Leo said, glancing back at her. "What am I supposed to say?" she snapped, her voice sharper than she intended. "Is everything fine? That Elias didn’t just sell us out to the enemy?" Leo sighed but didn’t respond. He knew her anger wasn’t dir

    The forest was eerily silent as Selene and Elias pressed forward, the weight of the explosion still heavy in their minds. Selene’s thoughts were a tangled mess of guilt, worry, and suspicion. The farther they went, the more the unease in her chest grew. Elias walked slightly ahead, his movements calculated and purposeful. She kept her distance, her grip tightening on her weapon. The memory of his hesitation earlier gnawed at her like a persistent itch. "Where are we even going?" Selene finally asked, her voice breaking the tense silence. Elias glanced over his shoulder, his expression calm but unreadable. "There’s another safe house a few miles from here. We’ll regroup there." "Did Leo mention it in his plan?" she probed, her tone laced with doubt. "He didn’t have time," Elias replied smoothly, though his gaze flickered for a brief second. "It’s something only a few of us know about." Selene’s jaw clenched. The logical part of her mind wanted to accept his explanation, but
