"There are many people who think I'm actually a gansgster or a mafiaso, largely because of Goodfella." Paul SorvinoJORDAN POVA loud scream jolted me out of bed. Panic settled on my tongue with a crashing weight when I took in the sight of the vacant space on the side of the bed, and I was out of the room flying down the hallways at a bolting speed. Thank God I was thoughtful enough to put on some pants.I rounded the corners only to be met by a vibrant commotion of people who were running just like me, wide-eyed and so unsettled... Their disturbed faces caused something to stir inside of me.“Melody… where is she?” The trepidation in my voice was real, so raw, and utterly noticeable. Instead of a verbal response, I was met with a sight that made me weak in the knees. All the air whooshed from out of me, and terror settled in my chest with a suffocating sensation that left me gasping hard for air. My lungs constricted painfully as hot air infested my insides. “God no…” I whispered b

"Be careful who you call friends. I would rather have four quarters than 100 pennies." - AL CAPONEJORDAN POVTwo hours. That’s how long it took for Francois to finally emerge from the white closed doors with a stern look on his face. “Is she alright? What happened to her?” I was out of my seat and in front of him, clutching the lapels of his coat and waiting for a response. If he didn't give me the answer I wanted, I was going to beat the shit out of him. I couldn’t wait any longer. I needed to know, because not knowing was fucking killing me. Right now I was left with even more questions than I had before reviewing the security footage.From everything I gathered, there was no one aside from Mel who was up and about during that time. And as though things couldn't be more confusing, the camera facing the stairs was out of service. And no one even bothered to report it to the butler.The whole thing didn't seem to be so simple, and it made me feel even more enraged than I have ever

"a true gangster can smell out a person's strengths and weaknesses in a matter of minutes, but what they can smell most of all, what their bodies are most attuned to, is the scent of fear." - LORENZO CARCATERRAJORDAN POV The city of Los Angeles was utterly washed out. You would swear it was during the peak of the apocalypse and everyone was in the safety of their cradle, hiding from the cruelty of the world while it was merely amidst fall. A few people loitered the streets, and a few cars honked and whooshed softly. My thoughts were scattered all over, but among all things that stayed cold and raw in my mind was the look on Melody’s face when we all received the news. I was hurt… Shattered is the perfect word for it because right now, it felt like I was a mere ghost of what I used to be. But that thought alone was enough to suck all the ounce of strength left inside of me. We just lost a baby. As if we were not going through enough shit with Star’s sudden appearance that cracked

"Maybe I can't stop the downpour, but I will always be by your side in the rain." - UNKNOWNMELODY POVResentment and agitation warred in my mind as I approached the vast structure laying before me. One foot in front of the other, I pushed my knees higher kicking the hew with my feet as I forced my beaten-up body to race to the house. My heart thumped with vigor, my muscles screamed for mercy, and my sore body cried out from the torture. But I was far from stopping. I couldn’t stop because my mind would not fuckin’ allow it. I cast a small gaze to the sky where the sun painted a lovely gray shade across the oblivion, dancing behind the horizon with the full promise of the new day.Thoughts bombard my mind, urging my muscles to push harder. I panted violently, as the house grew closer and closer until I was running on the paved pathway that led to the back entrance. I pushed the door and busted inside. Sweat dripped from my back, and my breathing grew even more ragged. I glanced at my

"You give them too much. They forget having your time is a privilege." - UNKNOWNJORDAN POVI was smashed,Okay. Maybe the right word for it is buzzed. I was drunk, but not to the point where I couldn't even feel because right now, I could still feel the dull ache that has been inside my chest since yesterday. And I fuckin' craved to be intoxicated. Just for tonight so I could momentarily forget how much it hurts. I mean that was the whole point, right? To forget. Even if it is just for a second."Okay, man. That's enough" Douglass aka Prince of hell ripped a glass of cognac from my hand before sitting beside me. I couldn't fight him. On any other given day. I would have shown him flames for even thinking about bossing me around. I was no longer the Jordan from before.But not tonight. Not now.Right now, I needed a shoulder to rest my head on. A friend. And Douglass was the closest thing I had to a friend right fuckin' now."This sucks man," he said after taking a good swig of his be

"I know what I bring to the table. So trust me when I say I'm not afraid of eating alone." - UNKNOWNMELODY POVHow can I be this stupid?How can I possibly think I still stood a chance in all of this twisted game of hearts and emotions? A larger part of me knew that things were going to come to this point, and all along, with everything evidently falling apart, my only trump card was the baby I was carrying. The idea of giving birth to my little mafia was the only thing that gave me hope, the only solid thing that made me believe that we were fucking forever. The vows?Those didn't matter. Empty promises always wore out at the end and I should have fuckin' known. How could I stupidly think that I could have something close to what my parents have?So fuckin' stupid!God, why was this happening to me?"Mel just..." Jordan's hurried footfalls followed me hauntingly, and I picked my pace. A shower of tears blanketed my sight, and I bit my bottom lip to stifle a loud sob that threatened

"Be careful who you trust, even the devil was once an angel" - UNKNOWN JORDAN POVThe white double doors slid open in front of me and out came a male doctor and two nurses who looked like they have just been to hell and back. I shot out of the seat and sprung towards them."Family?" the doctor asked with a corked brow as he slipped the surgical mask off his face to bathe us his attention."I am the father... Of the baby, n-not the..." Fuck. I couldn't even form a clear sentence without tripping over my words.I closed my mouth for composure and restarted."How is the baby?" my people slowly formed an arch around me as we all waited for the doctor to break the news. And at this point truly, I was genuinely starting to hate doctors and their fancy coats, even those little thingies they always hung around their necks that somehow made them feel like they have figured out some secret portal to heaven. Because nothing good ever came out of their mouths."The surgery was a success." he uni

"Together, we are untouchable. Like Bonnie and Clyde." ~ UNKNOWNJORDAN POVI knew he had to die. I knew I should have killed the bloody bastard the first time I learned of everything he had done, instead of letting him breathe for another second. Nothing killed a husband more than seeing his wife crumbling and fumbling for control when everything else just continued spiraling, and I hated that I seemed powerless and helpless about it all. Peter Rothschild should have died a long time ago, but I hesitated;And now he was brazenly threatening everything that my wife and her family had worked for so long… for decades. Maybe I wasn’t being loyal to blood. But blood alone was not what made you family. And learning everything that my grandfather did just proved that. My family was with Melody, because it was with her I got to be the man I was today. And the mere fact that my in-laws would burn the whole world for me was what made them family to me, and I wouldn’t trade them for anything.

“Any distraction tends to get in the way of being an effective gangster.” — Terence Winter~THREE WEEK LATER~MELODY POVIt was nostalgic. Almost not disheartening now that I knew where it came from. Like back when I was young and everything was just going so smoothly. I woke up every day and lazed around the rest of the day like a headless, aimless chicken with nothing to do on my hand. Maybe I was so used to spilling blood that going on for three weeks straight without seeing red coating my hands was a sin in itself.But this one was boring as hell. Sure, it was better when I was younger and didn’t know what had happened when my fathers were all home. But now I did, and I kind of missed the thrill of the fight. With these thoughts coursing through my mind, I glanced at an empty space beside me on the bed, and then thought hard on it. The sun was already out, and it was dang late. But I had no fuckin’ plans. Sure, I could visit the coke plant and see how my people were doing, and

“Best way to not get your heart broken is to not have one.” ~ UNKNOWNMELODY POVWe slipped through the security, and one of the guards (whatever his name was) took us up to the VIP booth on the second floor. “The Eagle is one of the most… he is not our usual client. So we thought we could take him up to the VIP.” He explained, stopping outside the booth that was covered with a violet curtain. “Is it true he is unarmed?” I asked with knitted brows, and the man nodded. “He didn’t bring any of his dogs?” Jord chimed in, and I looked at him before shifting my questioning gaze at the gaze. “He just showed up. No underman, nothing.” The man explained with a puzzled shrug, and my gaze collided with Jord’s.“Sounds fishy.” He said the exact thing I said when Douglass laid the news to me. “Okay, bud. Keep out on the lookout for things. And if you see anything out of place, kill it. No second thought or hesitation.” That came from Jordan, and if I wasn’t as puzzled as I was, I would have

"Blood makes you related, and loyalty makes you family.” ~ UNKNOWNMELODY POV“The Eagle is here.” The words caused the hairs on the back of my neck to stand on attention. My expression morphed from one of softness to stone cold in a fraction of a second, and I heard a small whistle coming from the other side of the terrace where Emily stood. I gave her a stink eye before getting up from where I was perched, then walked away without much of a word.“What the hell is Valero doing here? Is he armed?” I asked when I was out of ear shorts, already racing down the stairs to put on different clothes. I didn’t approach situations like those clad in jeans and a sweater. “That’s the exciting part. He is alone. He didn’t bring anyone with him and he is unarmed.” He revealed, and my confusion spiked through the roof. “Where are you? Is he with you?” I got into my bedroom before heading straight for my closet, then rummaged through my collection of leather pants because truth be told; nothing

"A guy told me one time… don’t let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner.” ~ Neil McCauleyMELODY POVThe touch came in innocent; like the feel of a light feather when it ghosted against the skin. My mind exploded under the two stimulants of the hot, soft tuch and the thickness and richness of the hot chocolate, causing heat to flood to every single part of my body. Every cell in my body buzzed with alertness when Jordan’s strong arms trapped me against the kitchen island. It was 8 in the morning, and he had to have left for work already. Sometimes I liked to picture us living in the classic French house with a white picket fence and annoying shit machines running around the house and wreaking havoc in nothing but diapers. It was safer to have a little bit of reality escape, especially when it was free to think. “What are you thinking of?” He drawled, his fingers caressing my barely dressed self

“I don’t like violence, Tom. I’m a businessman. Blood is a big expense.” ~ SollozzoJORDAN POVThe evening was pleasant, with the fresh scent of a live city and blinding lights. Few clouds hung from the sky staring down at the world like they were watchers of humanity. The air was dense, and humidity painted small vapor droplets on the windows. Everything was pleasant, everything but the LA night traffic which was a colossal pain in the ass, and every second we wasted traipsing in a convoy made me want to lose my mind.. Melody's presence was a heavy entity dominating my resolutions by my side, and her thoughts were so fuckin' loud I couldn't focus on anything but everything that turmoiled in her mind. And to think we ditched our own party and ran behind some retarded folk gangster to save the damsel in distress still sounded so crazy to me. But in all honesty, I would do it all over again if my time with my woman was guaranteed. I mean, what can I say? Mel always had that effect on m

"Do not fear death. Death is just a reformation of something even more magnificent. Death is where it all starts, death; it’s not the end.’~ UNKNOWNJORDAN POVAs though it was waiting to be opened, the first thing to flash across the screen was a blurred video that seemed to play on a broken loop. A few seconds in, everything cleared, revealing a very familiar, sweet, and feminine voice. The voice belonged to none but Emee, and that spiked my interest in knowing what exactly was in the device she gave us.Probably because I was still in wonder. Wondering how the hell someone like Emee, someone so kind and loving ended up licking the ass of someone as horrible as Peter. None of this made sense. Grandpops... He used to be... he was so different. He was a man. A father. Or maybe everything I saw through the eyes of a small boy was just a facade, and everything I saw was him trying to butter me up and suck me into his lair. Just that my father refused to give him that chance. And Emee

"I don’t wanna be a product of my environment. I want my environment to be a product of me.” ~ Frank CostelloEMILY POVLike a ray of sun piercing through the darkest clouds of a bitter storm, her presence alone was the resemblance of the sweet taste of redemption. For over twenty years now, I have been living as a hollow of a woman I once was. I saw myself changing in front of my eyes, from a loving, caring human into this shell of a human that cared less about… anything. My soul was so empty, my heart so drained. I lived every day like it was my last on earth, having no hope of seeing tomorrow or even the thirst of dreaming about the future. Everything was here, yet so out of reach. I had everything a woman my age could think of. Everything money could buy. But happiness? Freedom? Those were the two things that millions in my bank account failed to give me. Of course, on my most blue days, I drowned my sorrows in a bottle of the world's most expensive alcohol, but that was just

" “The loudest one in the room is the weakest one in the room.” — Frank LucasJORDAN POVI didn’t realize the restlessness that ghosted under my skin until I tried to sit down and calm the fuck down while trying by all means not to murder my grandad who stood in front of me like a pompous dick he was. I watched with obsidian as my wife skitted across the room towards the wine cabinet, then poured some good whiskey in the four flutes before returning with a tray. Always a good hostess she was!‘’A drink?” She stood in front of me and bent down to place the tray, sounding as though she was making an offer while I knew damn well in my heart and my soul that she would blow the fucker’s brains out if they tried to turn down her whiskey offer. Nothing got in the way of whiskey to Mel. And I just loved her for that. Emily jumped up and took a glass, passed it to Peter who leaned in to place and caught her by her nape before devouring her face in a sloppy wet kiss that had me gagging eve
