"What? No way! How is that even possible?" Rio was taken aback by the question, needing a moment to collect his thoughts. He never anticipated his father following through with his threat, and he hadn't imagined such a scenario unfolding.Andrea nodded understandingly. "I thought as much," he said, patting Rio on the shoulder. "Look out for yourself, Rio. But I don't think Luca would appreciate anything more than friendship. Just saying, in case you still value your friendship... and brotherhood." Rio stared at him for a while before nodding. "Sure," he replied, forcing a smile as Andrea walked away."Damn it!" he seethed, angrily striking his leg against the wall. He tried to compose himself, reminding himself that he was in a hospital. He returned to the room, and they made arrangements to go home after Luca had settled.Once Luca was settled at home, Rio hurriedly left for the jail where Levante was held. He confronted his father face to face, demanding, "What the hell did you tell

"We received information from our sources in prison. Rio's father is insane. Here's the recording given by the warden." She handed him a small piece of the recording as Rex played it. Every conversation between Damon and Rio from earlier was audible. Rex listened while gripping the bed rail where Ryan lay in anger. "Those despicable people," he seethed furiously."Andrea and Luca are innocent," She said."Well, his grandfather isn't!" Rex exclaimed, hurling the clip in frustration."Keep calm, man. Ryan is right here," Victoria coerced him.Rex hissed, running his hands through his hair. "Well, he's unconscious, and there's nothing we can do about it," he replied."What do we do now?" Victoria inquired."We do what Elena always wanted. We leave this wretched place! Even if it means kidnapping Elena, I'll do it!" Rex declared, while Victoria looked at him disapprovingly."Oh, don't give me that look. You know it's the most logical choice right now.""Elena isn't a child. Let's stay com

For the past 10 minutes, Rex and Andrea had locked eyes, ever since Andrea walked into the restaurant and took a seat. Neither of them spoke, waiting for the other to break the silence.Finally, Andrea couldn't hold back any longer. "Elena's brother, huh?" she muttered, prompting a slow nod from Rex. He extended his right hand for a handshake. "Rex," he offered a half-hearted smile.Reluctantly, Andrea reciprocated the gesture, studying him carefully. "Just how many brothers does she have?" Andrea inquired.Rex's lips curved into a smile. "I am her blood brother, while Ryan isn't. But he's more like family."Resting her elbows on the table that separated them, Andrea leaned forward. "Speaking of Ryan, he is..." she paused, pressing her lips together."Ryan is the least of my problems," Rex interjected, earning a surprised look from Andrea."Why did you ask me out here, knowing how much I despise your family?" Andrea's gaze turned spiteful."You won't... after what I'm about to tell yo

"That... That means nothing, son. Just a useless statement," Andrea said, while Luca shook his head."What is everyone doing? Elena... You... Even Rio! The look in his eyes this morning... I don't know anymore! You're all driving me insane!" Luca shouted, attempting to leave, but Andrea went after him."Luca. Luca..." he called, but Luca didn't turn back.As he walked away, Luca bumped into Elena, who looked at him and then at his father following behind him. "Luca?" she asked, her face showing confusion."Both of you... Follow me," Luca said to them, heading towards the living room."What is this about?" Elena asked him."Just don't tell him anything about what's going on if you care about him," he said, quickly walking to catch up with Luca.As soon as they reached the living room, they were met with Rio's stern gaze. "Start talking," he demanded, while Elena and Andrea exchanged glances."No... No..." Luca murmured. "Don't do that. Do you silently communicate with each other, telli

Luca stood still, refusing to break the kiss as Rio deepened it. To Rio's surprise, Luca reciprocated. They eventually pulled away, their gazes locked on each other. “Fuck!” Luca sighed, running his hands through his hair and turning away. "There’s no need to berate yourself, Luca. I'll be leaving. I'll remove myself from your life... from you... Elena," Rio said, pressing his lips together."But the truth is, I can't get over you, man," he chuckled bitterly. "I always wondered if I had confessed earlier, you would have been mine..." Rio's words caused Luca's demeanor to falter. "Or maybe not," Rio added."Where will you go? You're not leaving because...""Anywhere but near you. I don't know what it will take to make you mine. I'm still tormented by regret over my past actions. It's enough now," Rio said, turning away. He turned back briefly. "The kiss never happened," he uttered, leaving Luca to watch him depart. A strong urge to chase after him arose within Luca, but he was confused

“If you….”“Don’t you dare raise your voice at me, boy,” Levante interrupted as Rex seethed. Victoria placed a hand on his shoulder. This was a practice she was used to, or maybe adopted due to Rex’s nature.“Now listen to me carefully, I want you and your bloody cohorts to leave the country. I don’t care where you go, what you do or whatever. Just don’t let me get news that you’re still in,” Levante said.Rex chuckled. “What makes you think I’ll obey you, you loser,” Rex said as Levante chuckled. “You of all people know what I can do. Before all this, I wanted to play fair and square but then you involved Rio? What? He said he was going to help you bring me down? You dare plan with my son!” Levante retorted.“Well, he knows when to turn to the winning side. He’s much smarter I guess.” Rex taunted.“Let’s see if you’ll have the mouth to talk of you find your sister dead in the gutters! 24 hours, boy. 24 hours….” With that, a beep followed, signaling the end of the call.“Fuck!” Rex re

Andrea hurriedly made his way to Elena as soon as his son left the room. Elena, who sat on their bed, feeling confused looked up to see Andrea when the door opened.“What did you say to him?” He asked angrily.“What he should have known long ago. I've endured so much to be with him, but what have I received? Betrayal! I saw him kissing Rio..." Elena vented, while Andrea stood there, observing her. She studied his expression and raised an eyebrow. "You don't seem surprised. Did you already know about Rio's love for him?"Andrea pressed his lips together. "We both know Luca doesn't feel the same way about Rio. He was likely coerced..." Andrea stated, but Elena scoffed. "Well, I don't care anymore. I'm done!" Elena declared, walking out of the room, with Andrea's gaze following her."Where are you going?" he followed after her, but Elena didn't spare him a glance."To where I'm needed and loved," she muttered as she left the mansion. Andrea looked down at the towel he had tied around his

Elena quickly stood up as she met his unwavering gaze. “What the fuck do you want?” She asked.Luca breathed heavily and pressed his lips. “We need to talk, Elena.” He said.“How did you find me? Put a tracking device on me?” She asked as she eyed me.“Now you think everyone’s as devious as you? Come off it, Elena.” Luca scoffed.“I’m not leaving, Go away.” She hissed.“You might want to listen to what I have to say, let’s go talk at home.” Another voice joined as they both turned to find Andrea staring at Elena.Elena scoffed. “It’s planned, ugh?” “It’s about your brother, you might be quite interested.” Andrea continued nevertheless, ignoring the scornful look he had.When they finally got to the mansion, All seated on in the living room, Andrea broke the silence. “We’ve had ups and down….” Luca raised his hand to stop him.He turned to Elena. “Tell me everything…I mean I couldn’t listen to what you had to say earlier. Dad…” he turned to Andrea.“Or you’ll go first. It seemed like

“Rio,” Rossi said. “There’s a commotion in the hospital he was admitted in. He is on the rooftop with Elena. Luca should have received a call by now. He keeps asking for him.” Rex turned to look at Luca who stared anxiously at him. “I’m with Luca right now. We’ll head there right away.” Rex said and hung up.“What…”“Your crazy Boyfriend has her.” Rex seethed.“What?”“There’s no time. Let’s leave.” Rex said as he walked out of the house, trailed after by Luca.As they entered Rex’s car, Luca was still oblivious to what was happening.“Aren’t you wrong? Rio is in a psychiatric hospital.”“And he has my sister. He is threatening to kill her.”“What?” Luca's eyes shone in surprise. How is that….”“I don’t fucking know!” Rex snapped as he faced the road and hit the accelerator. Luca stared at him and looked at the road ahead. What the fuck is happening?When they got to the hospital, there was greeted by the crowd in front of the hospital as Rio stood at the edge of the rooftop, with a

Rex paced around the living room frantically. It was late in the night and there was no sign of Elena. He has been trying to reach her since they left King’s Hotel. After the argument with Rossi, it was as of Elena had disappeared into thin air. She wasn’t even in the motel she has been hiding all this while. He dialed his father….they had both exchanged contacts earlier, both promising to give each other updates on how things would proceed.“I can’t seem to find her,” Rex said immediately after he heard the beep.Rex could hear him sigh from the receiver’s side. “Where she’s staying?”“Not there. And she isn’t picking up my calls. The call doesn’t seem to go through no matter how many times I try.” Rex said in frustration. “Does Levante have her?”“I will ask my people to track her. She’ll be fine, Rex.” Rossi said.Rex hung up but the gut feeling that his sister was in danger was overwhelming. He couldn’t just sit and wait without doing anything. What if Elena was in danger?

Luca moved instinctively towards her and drew her into his embrace. Elena's lips curved into a smile as she snuggled close to him. “What happened with Rio wasn’t your fault.” She said.“I know. I know. But I can’t seem to stop blaming myself.” He murmured in her hair. Elena rubbed his back like a child that needs consoling.“Let’s get married. And leave this place.” Luca said as Elena’s body stilled in his arms. She didn’t expect things to be going this way.She freed herself from him and looked at him. “Really?”Luca smiled at her. “And it’s not because of the child. I haven’t felt attracted to anyone the way I am to you since Angelo’s mother died. I’ve only loved her.” He said as Elena forced a smile. She hated the fact that she couldn’t tell him the truth yet. It wasn’t the time. When everything’s settled, they would have the whole time in the world. She promised herself.“For now…” Luca stared lovingly at her as he removed the strand of hair that was covering her face. “Let’s help

“What development?” Elena asked.“Someone with the same goal as us contacted me.”“What?” Elena raised a brow. “What do you mean?”“I don’t know. He wants to stay anonymous till the day we meet.” Rex said, frustration evident in his voice.“Does that make sense? Do you want to meet up with some stranger? Because of what?” Elena asked with a sarcastic look.“I don’t care. I lost Victoria. I don’t want to lose you too. As far as I know, Levante thinks you’re dead. We need to strike now. When they least expect.” Rex said with determination.“Do what you want.” Elena stood up and picked up her cell phone on the bed. “I’m going to meet the father of my unborn child.” “What? By this time? Why are so stubborn? What if Levante sees you?”“I don’t care. I might as well tell Luca the truth about them. He would stop caring about that Rio.” Elena hissed and headed for the door.The evening breeze was gentle but Elena couldn’t help but feel chilly as she stood by the roadside, looking for a cab t

“I fucked Martino.” She said dryly as Rex's eyes flickered at her for a while and averted his gaze quickly as if trying to hide something. “I fucked him,” Victoria replied as Rex shifted his gaze to her face again. “Okay.” He shrugged. “It’s all for the plan, right.” He asked, desperation hidden in his voice.Victoria cupped her face in frustration. “I love him, Rex.” Rex's hands stiffened in his pocket. He parted his lips but nothing came out. “Say something, damn it!” She fired as Rex chuckled.“Say what?” He asked, trying to fight the emotion that was burning within him.“Curse me. Call me a filthy bitch. I can take it all. But I do love him, Rex.”“And us?” Rex asked as if that has been the question in his mind.Victoria closed her eyes for a while and opened it. “I don’t know.” She shook her head as Rex’s heart sank.“I don’t know, man. I need space.” She said as tears streamed from her eye. As she turned to leave, Rex caught her arm again.“Our plans?”“Are you kidding me ri

Martino sat down in the visiting room while Levante paced around in front of him. He didn’t dare to talk. After he received his call at the hospital earlier. His urgent tone signaled to Martino that Levante was, even more, crazier than his son. “PTSD ugh?” He stopped moving as he regarded Martino. Martino paused, nothing ever gets past this man. More reason why he should be more cautious.“The doctor hasn’t made any diagnosis yet. He’s still under observation.” Martino replied, careful with his words in order not to infuriate him any further.Levante nodded. “Will he be admitted to some psychiatrist hospital?”“Like I said…”“I bloody heard you the first time, Martino!” Levante fired as Martino bowed his head. That’s more like it. This was his true character. Not the unusually quiet type that was unpredictable.“I’m sorry boss.”“Did the doctor say what caused his trauma?”“I…”“I could get that information in a matter of seconds. Think before you lie.” Levante hissed.Then why did y

“What?” Luca asked, surprised. “This is crazy, Rio.” He added quickly when he noticed his surprised look wasn’t helping matters.“Yeah! I’m crazy about you, Luca!” Rio sobbed as Luca pressed his lips in exasperation.“Those times in the past…” he started slowly and his grip on the injection was less. “I would always watch your back. Dad said it was my duty. It was our duty to watch out for the Romanos.” He scoffed with a bitter smile as Luca watched him. He hated seeing him like this. He couldn’t do anything and it added to his frustration. “I misunderstood man.” He added.“You were the best thing that happened to me,” Luca said.“Were?” Rio raised a brow.“Rio…”“Those times when you would always stay alone. Angry you couldn’t approach other girls, I wished you would just look at me. Even for once.” Rio said.“I didn’t….” Luca brushed his hand through his hair. “I didn’t know, Rio.”“Well, Now you know!” He snapped.“Yes. I do. And I appreciate you….your love.”“No, you don’t,” Rio s

“Victoria….I…” Martino started to say but the words got hung up in the air.“Martino?” Victoria called when he didn’t say anything afterward.“Anything I do in the future, just know I love you. I love you so much, Victoria.” Martino said and hung up. He swung around and marched back to the cottage. He narrowed his eyes at Elena. “I’m not going to kill you. A certain person is betting on me. So I wouldn’t want to break her trust.” Elena watched him. Was it Victoria?“Then what?” She asked with a frown.“Let’s make a deal….” “Deal?”“You already know by now that Rio wants you dead. And I can’t seem to understand why you said he tried to kill you in the past…” Martino gave her a wary look. But Elena didn’t reply. There was no use hiding it. Or was there? He is going to spare her. She should keep her mouth shut till the end.“Your deal…” she said.“Stay away from Luca. Go far away from him. Out of the country….I don’t care. Because if I see you anywhere around him, I’ll be the first to

“How are you feeling, Rio.” Levante ignored his initial statement.“It’s not your concern. You’ve always wanted to do my bidding right? Then take her out? I don’t want to see her ever again!” A silence ensued for a while then Levante spoke up. “Did she try to hurt you?”“Is that more important to you?”“Answer the damn question, boy. I pay my enemies back in full.” Levante spoke harshly as Rio sighed.“Not directly.”“What do you mean?”“Luca slept with her.” He said and paused but his father didn’t say a word. “I got overwhelmed with the thought and crashed on a poll.”“I can’t believe this,” Levante muttered under his breath.“Well?” Rio asked.“Focus on recovering. I’ll take care of the rest.” Levante said and hung up.“That isn’t a bloody answer,” Rio muttered as he put down the phone. He lay there in silence as he took time to eventually review his decision. He had called his dad on impulse. He was angry. Especially after that talk with Luca. His rage knew no bounds. He just cou
