CHAPTER 57 •MATTEO’S POV•A few days have gone by since her accident and she still showed no signs of waking up. Every day I was scared of waking up and seeing she wasn’t awake. I stayed by her side for days not willing to leave her even for a brief moment, I was in so much grief seeing what I put her through.On the other hand, Sebastian was nowhere to be found. I had hired a private investigator, Ethan who operated in the shadows to find him. He was highly recommended as one who could find any person even if the person were dead.“Make sure to find him and bring him to me alive, he must pay for making my wife this way.” I had instructed him.“Noted Sir Rocco. He will be brought to you in a week.” He responded.A week was too long. “Make it four days. Bring him to me in four days.” I ordered and he agreed to my terms.It’s been the third day and I didn’t get a feedback from Ethan. Just as I was about to place a call to him, his call came in and I pic

CHAPTER 58 •MATTEO’S POV•A text from Ethan; We found what seems like a burner phone with almost nothing on it but a single text message.Matteo: Get to the hospital right now with the phone.Ethan: On my way sir Rocco.Just a day after Bella’s suggestion what seems like a clue has been found at the scene where Sebastian’s body was found. Ethan was on his way to the hospital with the phone and Anthony was here with me. Bella stepped out for a moment to check on Austin who was a few wards away from Aurora. He was badly wounded and had a cut above his shoulder. At first, he had refused to come to the hospital after first aid was applied to his wound but two nights ago he slumped due to an infection in the wound and had to be admitted. For now he wasn’t working on the case and didn’t know what was going on cause if he did, he would want to be of help even in his wounded state.Ethan is here sooner than expected as he walks into the room with hurried strides b

CHAPTER 59 •ANTHONY’S POV•Leaving Matteo with Aurora in the room, I step outside the hospital building for some air. It’s been a roller coaster of emotions these past few days for each of us and it’s getting worse as it’s almost two weeks yet no signs of waking up from Aurora. It was taking a toll on us.I spot Bella sitting in the garden in the middle of the hospital again, it had become her usual spot to sit and think. She’s been blaming herself heavily for the accident with Aurora and even after Matteo had tried to convince her that it wasn’t her fault, she just kept on blaming herself. I had been watching her for a few minutes now, trying to figure out what to say to her —how to console her.It wasn’t easy seeing her like this. Bella wasn’t the type to show her emotions easily, but ever since Aurora’s accident, she’d been burying herself under the weight of what happened. Blaming herself all the time and it broke me seeing her that way. I’ve had a cr

CHAPTER 60 •AURORA’S POV•(Aurora’s Subconsciousness)I feel like I’m flying in the clouds to an unknown destination. It’s comfortable and calming up here. Everything is calm, but there’s a pull in my chest, something tugging me in two different directions. I land in a place that seems more like the Netherlands and I’m now thinking if I’m dead. I look around me but I don’t see any signs of another person with me. Suddenly I feel the presence of another person, I’m not alone, I think to myself.She looks so familiar like someone I know but u could barely see her as she was a bit away from me and had clouds over her face. But soon the clouds part and she’s closer to me. My eyes widen in the realization of who she is.“Mom?” My voice comes out barely above a whisper, disbelieving.She’s standing there, just as I remember, with her warm and familiar smile, the one that always made me feel safe.“Aurora dearest." she says, stepping closer, her hand brushing my cheek. “It’s been so lon

CHAPTER 61 AURORAS POVEverything felt... distant. My body was heavy, my mind a foggy haze as I tried to move, but it was like being trapped in my own body feeling very weak and unable to move my body, and I couldn’t quite understand what was going on at first. Then, a faint sound like a steady beeping caught my attention in the background and I focused on it, and gradually, the fog in my mind slowly began to clear.Where... am I? I thought to myself trying to recollect my memories.I blinked slowly as I opened my eyes trying to adjust to the sudden brightness of the light in the room where I lay. Slowly, I caught onto the smell of antiseptic and I made a bold guess at where I may be at the moment. A hospital.My breath caught in my throat. The last thing I remembered was... Oh God, the attack. The sharp pain. The last evil smile from Sebastian before I passed out.Was I still alive? I turned my head slowly, and that’s when I saw him—Matteo. He was lying in a chair bes

CHAPTER 62*Matteo’s POVDays had passed since Aurora woke up from her coma, and every second since then, I stayed by her side as I could not bring myself to stay away from her. Bella and Anthony too took turns in staying with her, especially Bella who made sure to cater to all of Aurora’s needs. It was almost like nothing ever happened as we never spoke about the incident since that day but I knew…… I knew she had questions, the kind of questions I wasn’t sure how to answer yet or if I even wanted to tell her about.Bella and Anthony had just made their leave a few minutes ago and we were left alone in her hospital room. “You should rest,” I said, turning back to her trying to tuck her in but she seemed to not want to rest.“Is something bothering you, baby girl?” I asked her calmly but as if I knew what was on her mind.Aurora sat up in the hospital bed, her eyes studying me like to see if I was hiding something from her well which of course I was. “I’ve rested enough,” she said so

CHAPTER 63**Aurora's POV**I thought going back to the house would make me feel safe again. Matteo had reassured me that Sebastian was dead, and though the real mastermind was still out there, I convinced myself that being surrounded by people I trusted—Matteo, Bella, Anthony, and Austin—would be enough to make the nightmares stop.But I was wrong.I hadn’t slept a full night since coming home. Every time I closed my eyes, Sebastian was there. His face haunted me in my dreams, twisted and cruel as if he was taunting me for surviving while he had a peaceful and quiet death. Every night, it was the same—his hands reaching for me grabbing me by my neck and choking me, his voice in my ear. I woke up drenched in sweat, heart pounding, gasping for air and Matteo would wake up and try to calm me down.The house felt different now, almost suffocating mostly when I was alone in my room or any part of the house. Every corner held a shadow, and every sound made me jump. I couldn’t shake the fe

CHAPTER 64 •MATTEO’S POV•“A lead?” Austin asks looking at Ethan across the table. “What lead are you talking about?”We’re seated in the living room while Aurora is having her bath. She had another bad dream while taking a nap and I had just calmed her down, setting up a bath for her when Ethan came visiting.Sitting at the edge of the table, my fingers tapping lightly against the wood I scanned the faces of Anthony, Austin, Bella, and Ethan. The air was thick with tension, and they all knew why—this wasn’t just a casual conversation. The investigator, Ethan, had found something, and we needed answers.“So,” I began, in the most controlled manner, “you said you found a clue. Something new about Sebastian?”Ethan, who had been flipping through his notes before pulling out a piece of what looked like a document and placing it on the table, looked up and nodded. “Yes. It’s not much, but it could be significant. We traced a money transfer that was sent to Sebastian’s account...from

MATTEO’S POV"No."That was the first word out of my mouth the moment Aurora stepped into the room. I had thought about how I would try to talk her out of joining us in meeting Sofia but seeing how she looked right now told me that if I didn’t stop her, she would pull up something reckless when we got there. Dressed in a black leather jumpsuit paired with a pair of black boots, Her eyes still had that mechanical look to them and she just looked… DANGEROUS."You're not coming with us," I said again, louder this time.She didn’t flinch. "I am." She bent down to adjust the laces of her boots as if I wasn’t talking to her. Bella blinked. "Aurora… you look like you're heading to kill someone.""I might.""Absolutely not," I snapped, moving toward her. "You’re not going into that place dressed like—""Like someone ready to get her son back?" she interrupted.Anthony stood behind me, arms folded and just stared at Aurora before he spoke up. "This isn't a battlefield, Aurora.""Isn’t it? My

MATTEO’S POVThe whole house was thrown into chaos with Liam’s disappearance with Sofia. Aurora hadn’t said a word for hours, as if in a trance and the worst part…Riccardo had insisted on not talking which was nerve-wracking. “All fingers point to Sofia, she has a hand in Alfredo’s disappearance.”Bella pointed out a matter of factly as we tried without end to reach Sofia’s phone but to no avail. “I can’t believe this is happening again and to my son at that. I wish she took me instead.” Aurora’s voice came from the corner of the where she sat in tears. “I really do wish she took me instead of my son, my baby is too young and precious for this.” Loud sobs came at the last part as her body shook violently. I pulled my wife into my arms whispering comforting things to her. Bella and Anthony came close, “Sofia won’t hurt him Aurora, she might be acting this way but would never hurt her nephew. She might be acting up cause of something.” Bella said softly.“But what does she want?” I fi

AURORA’S POV“At this rate, I’ll be late picking up Liam.” I sighed as I took another glance at my watch, it was more than twenty minutes and no sign of Bella. She’d asked to meet but she wasn’t showing up. Dailing her number a couple of times with no response I made to leave the ice cream shop heading towards my car when a message dropped in. Opening my inbox my blood ran cold. “No…no.” I whispered in fear as I looked at the image of my baby boy asleep in the back seat of a car. My mind went black as I jumped into my car and sped up to his kindergarten which was just a three-minute drive from the ice cream shop. “God it better be a prank… not my baby God I beg of you.” I kept praying as my heart slammed against my chest in fear. Immediately I got to the school premises I caught sight of Liam’s homeroom teacher out in the front with some other kids whose parents were yet to pick up. She sees me and waves my way. “Mrs Rocco, what are you doing here?” She asks warmly with a confused

MATTEO’S POVDay three into Sofia’s disappearance and Alfredo's supposed death. That was how long it had been then. Three days, and we still had nothing except her abandoned car in the hotel parking lot. She checked in and never came out leaving everyone fucking worried.And as if that isn't enough, the damn DNA results were still being delayed by Hughes and Dawson. "I want those results on my desk in an hour," I snapped into the phone talking to Dawson, pacing the length of my office. "I don't care what the holdup is. Make it happen. And don’t bring up that crap that he was burnt beyond recognition else I'll Have you burnt as well."The man on the other end stammered, trying to feed me more excuses. I hung up before I lost my temper completely. This was already getting me on edge as it's been days and we've still had nothing from the forensics or the CCTV footage.I turned to Anthony, who was leaning against the desk, his eyes glued to the screen monitoring the CCTV footage. "Go p

SOFIA’S POV.I had to get Matteo off my tail and getting rid of my car was the first part. I parked it at the hotel where we usually hosted our family events, flashed a fake smile at the concierge, booked a room under my name, and took the requested to go out through the back exit and took a taxi to Alfredo’s hideout. I knew Matteo will track my car and it would be easy to find me. It’s been three days since our fall out and it was time to get plans rolling. Dawson has been on my neck cause of the pressure from Matteo and I had asked for three days. Damn it! I hate rushed things. "Ricardo, where's Matteo now?" I whisper, pacing Alfredo’s dimly lit apartment. My fingers drum against my thigh as I hold the phone tight to my ear. Leaving Riccardo behind wasn't part of my plan but worked in my favor as I could keep track of what my brother was up to."Still on the DNA results. He's pressing hard as Dawson is stalling to buy time for you. Anthony is headed to the forensics right now to

AURORA’S POVMatteo picked up on the third ring."What is it?" His voice was sharp and edgy. I guess his meeting at the morgue didn’t go well. Today was just one drama after another."Sofia just left the house," I said quickly. "She stormed out after a fight with Bella. I don’t know where she’s going, but she looked…dangerous Matteo, I’ve never seen her that way even when she was mad at someone. It didn’t feel right."A pause. "How long ago?" His voice came back on the line. "Minutes. She took her car, alone. Didn’t wait for her bodyguard.""Stay put. I’m coming back.""What? I thought you were still at the morgue?""I’m done there and heading home. I’ll be there soon. Don’t let Bella do anything reckless, she’s not the type that will let Sofia off the hook easily after a fight just because they’re siblings."He hung up before I could ask more. Typical.I turned to Bella, who was still fuming from the fight. She had a split lip, and her hands were shaking. Infact her whole body was v

SOFIA'S POV“Damn it.” I screamed jamming the door against its hinges as I stepped into my room. Fuck all of them, Fuck this family. After years of sidelining me, cause they thought of me as incapable of being in the family’s business, they’re still treating me like shit trying to boss me around. Breathing in and out I try to control my breath as I breathe in and out to calm my nerves. “Once I’m done with you guys, you’ll know better than mess me.” I throw myself back into bed and remain in that position looking at the ceiling for almost an hour when my phone notification beeps signaling a message.My hands trembled as I gripped my phone, staring at the last message Dawson sent me. He’s been pulling strings for me in prison in exchange for money to settle his wife’s hospital bills.“They’re questioning the body. Matteo ordered a DNA test. He’s insisting the body isn’t Alfredo’s.”Damn it.This wasn’t part of the plan. I never told Alfredo about this particular plan because I didn’t

MATTEO’S POVAlfredo. Dead. A supposed suicide. It didn’t add up.Alfredo was anything but he wasn’t a chicken head that would deliberately kill himself over a prison time. He would rather serve time and come out to continue his supposed revenge than die like a chicken.Anthony and I walked behind an attendant and a doctor who led the way into the morgue in the prison where the bodies are kept till consumed by the family of the deceased. “He’s he is.” The attendant says stopping in front of the freezer used to store the bodies before pulling it out for us to examine.Stepping closer to take a closer look, his face was totally disfigured almost to the point of no recognition. A burn? Did he set himself on fire? Why wasn’t this said over the phone before we got here?Dr. Hughes, the forensic pathologist, gestured toward the covered body on the steel table. “We received him early this morning. The official report states self-immolation inside his cell. Burned beyond recognition.”My jaw

AURORA’S POVIt’s 8:30 am and no signs of Sofia being back home, pretty sure she didn’t sleep at home last night as I didn’t see her bodyguard as well. Tried calling and she’s been unavailable.Bella strolls in lazily and plumps herself into a seat at the dining table where I, Matteo and Anthony are seated. “What’s for breakfast.” Her voice was patched and I passed her a glass of water. “Thanks, sweet girl.” She gulps down her water in one go. Anthony loads her plate with some food while Bella’s eyes scan the table questioningly, “Uhmm…where’s Soph? Has anyone checked in on her, she complained of cramps yesterday.” She noted. “I doubt she’s home, knocked on her door several times and nothing. Her phone’s not available as well.” I point out and just after I spoke we hear someone walk in and all heads turn simultaneously. There she is.Raising from my seat and grabbing a plate and spoon for her to use I query her “Where have you been? We’ve been looking for and just spoke about you ju
