"Please, Ari, wake up. I am here, baby. I have you now and all you need to do is to wake up." He continued to stroke her hair and whispered, "You're really scaring me now, sweetheart. I need you to open your eyes and wake up now."

Since he brought her here, Ari has been unconscious. His own set of doctors came to see her and to check on her, and everything seemed to be in order, except for the tremendous anxiety and trauma she has experienced. Since then, she hasn't gained consciousness and has just continued to sleep.

He is not sure if her being like this can help her make a full recovery. And he is at a loss for words just by looking at her. She needs to be in good health. She needs to re-establish her consciousness. She needs to get back to him safely.

He decided to stay with her and to keep watch on her improvements. He had been exhausted from the turn of events as he leaned back on the couch and closed his eyes. He really can't help but be concerned about her safety. She is hi

    Matt understands how incredibly hard it can be to explain everything to her. He's well aware that Ariella is unlikely to believe him. He's pinning Elliot Allister, the fucking, damned perfect best friend she could ever have, after all. "I tried to warn you, Ari. He is a mafia member. He is a high-ranking mafia figure who will do anything just to get back to your family. Your best friend is not really who you think he is. He’s been keeping a lot of things from you and hiding a lot of dark secrets from you." Ari scrunched her brows all the more as Matt delivered that simple statement. She knows Matt is trying to influence her to believe him. She peered at him, not trusting a word he said. This is a bunch of nonsense! What Matt is telling her is all crap! Elliot and Ethan worked for hand in hand to make sure she safely reached her home. Ethan wouldn't work with a rival. And how can they be warring families when, since then, Elliot and her family have been nothing but excellent friends? T

    "What on earth do you mean, he got her? How? Why? Are you referring to Ariella as "her" in that statement? And who is the "he" here? Wasn't she supposed to be back at their house? What happened to Ariella and where is Ethan?" Elliot's furious voice roared, and his troops could not really help but recoil at the boss's harshness and fierceness of tone. They understand that this is not the time for them to make any blunders, or else they wouldn't see another day. "We've received the news that the Gregorys are already on their way over here. I didn't get to know the full story, and all Ethan could say was that they had an emergency because he had her. He could not really elaborate on who "he and she" were being referred to. He just said that he'd explain everything to us when they arrived here." They're in the warehouse right now, working over some of the details and technicalities of their next cargo, when Kyle suddenly remembers the news he heard from Ethan earlier that day. He thought

    "What if Matt succeeded in really getting her? What if Ari's life is in grave danger?" Elliot can't help but question his capo and underboss. He's exposing his vulnerability once more. For a mafia boss like him, this is a no-no, but he can't keep his fear to himself anymore. "El, we're on their tail. We will assist them. We will provide them with all the necessary technology and intelligence that they will need from us, but we will never go to war for them or with them. You know what your father will think and do if we do what you want. It was never even meant to be our war to begin with." Elliot blew out a grunt of despair. How will he get to choose between the lady he loves and the crew he's supposed to be leading and defending? Ari and his team are both a part of his life and the reason for what he is at the moment, but can he sacrifice one to save the other? Elliot now feels hopeless and devastated all over again. He doesn't want to choose, but it seems to be leading that way for

    "Elliot, what the fuck did you just say? What exactly do you mean when you say you're going to go to war with the Gregorys against the Wilsons? Would you like to see me murder you now, before you can even join that war? We would not go to any conflict if it's not our battle to begin with, as you know. Are you a fucking idiot?! What happened to your goddamn brains? You are clearly not deciding and thinking as a mafia boss as you should have been!" Elliot's father is growling at them, as they had expected. He is furious and incensed with Elliot in particular. Why then, should he not feel this rage? His son, the current boss of their organization, has the audacity to come home and tell him up front that he will be going to fight with the Wilsons to aid the Gregorys. To say the very least, it's a totally dickhead move. He seems to have no idea what compelled his son to do something so thoughtless and dangerous. And he can't accept it, not even for a second. He will never allow Elliot's ra

    "I'm not seeking your or anyone else's permission. I'm just here to inform you of my decision and my plans. I still respect your role as my elder and mostly as my father, enough to even inform you of my choices. But you simply cannot stop me from doing what I want now." Elliot's indignation causes Kyle to cringe. He has no idea what's going on in Elliot's head, but this is definitely not what he expected. Is this really how people are responding to love? Every moment that passes drives Elliot crazy. Kyle is even certain that if Ari urges Elliot to jump off a bridge and commit suicide, his friend will do it. Oh! How stupid can a person in love be? "Elliot, I also believe that it is now the time to back off. You're well aware that you're not going to win this argument. Not with the don, El. Even if he is your father, you know that when he says no it definitely means no." Kyle murmured cautiously, as he is going to try and keep Elliot from aggravating the elders' already-high levels of

    "Are you certain, Elliot, that you want to do this? Are you sure you really want to be here and face the angst of your father? We don't want to damage your relationship with your father and your gang. We completely understand your group's point of view on this. And we are perfectly aware that this will occur. We are not forcing you to do this. We have the same policy as you, so it's not surprising if you back down and don't fight with us." "I assure you that it's alright, Ethan. I want to be here and help you find Ariella. I'll stand alongside you on this, although I'm afraid I won't be able to bring my men along." Elliot can only take some deep breaths to assure Ethan and himself that everything is going to be alright with this decision. He wants to just save Ari as much as anything else, but he does not really know how to do it without his troops behind him. What matters most now is his desire to see Ari and protect her. It is enough to make him overcome his self-doubts at the momen

    His conversation with Ethan was brought to a halt when his phone started ringing. He hastily rejected the call when he realized it was from Kyle. He doesn't even want to talk to him right now, as he's still upset about what happened. He knows it's not Kyle's fault, but as his friend, he was expecting that he would back him up. But the annoying prick chose otherwise. When his phone started ringing again, Ethan gave him a puzzled look, and all he could do was shrug his shoulders. "Nothing important," he said simply. "It must be important if that person keeps on calling you. Answer it." Ethand urged him. Kyle really does have a penchant for testing his fortitude, so he knows the jackass won't stop contacting him. He also does not want to go into further detail with Ethan about this. He picked up the phone because he had no other choice but to answer since Kyle would definitely not stop. "What is it that you want, Conner?" He hissed with annoyance. "Allister, where the fuck are you?" K

    At the warehouse, the men are all lined up. An emergency call was made and each and every one of them was present. The boss's final commands are anticipated by everyone who willingly joined the call. And every member of the gang was there. The capo had already briefly explained to them beforehand what this was all about. Everyone else was presented with a choice. They have never been forced to take part in the gang warfare that is about to ensue. But they all opted to be here and send their support. For their squad, they are all family. And in their family, they all seem to be committed to fighting to the death and putting their lives at risk. As they had been explicitly told, this was not their cause. This is why they are given a chance and a choice to partake or not. But at the end of the day, they can't let their boss wage his own fights, as much as they would not want to intervene in things that are just not their affair. They can't just leave him to fight for his love and his lif

    Two men could be seen discreetly bickering over something in the stillness of the night. And although what was happening was visible to the rest of the men on the ground with them, they all chose not to interfere at this moment. They know better than to meddle with something that is not their concern. No one can genuinely understand what the verbal hubbub that is occurring between the two is all about as well. But whatever it is, it begins to appear to be about something big and important for the two to face off on the grounds just like that. The two men exchanged dirty, mean looks as they awaited each other's next move. And it also seemed as if they were about to each draw their firearms and end this ordeal between them, but both of them subsequently changed their minds and thought better of their situation. It really shouldn't reach such an extent once more. They now behave more calmly and rationally with each other than they used to in the past as a result of the changes in their

    The wedding ceremony is happening in a blur for both of them. They are just too focused on each other all the time, as they are both holding each other's hands. The couple is so overjoyed about everything that is happening that they were smiling all throughout. And why wouldn't they? They are getting married! "Now that you can, Elliot, you may now recite your vows." The priest directed him. Elliot wasn't accustomed to these situations, of course. He's never been kind to express how he really feels, especially about love topics, and most of all not in front of other people. Kyle and Brit are the only people who could possibly know everything about what his heart desires. Nevertheless, today, he is willing to voice his opinion openly about Ariella and take away all his inhibitions because he wants Ari to understand how important she is to him. Before actually beginning to say his vows, he even took a deep breath to compose himself. "Hey, you know how hard this is for me, Ari, sweetie.

    As I stood beside Kyle, my heartbeat was thumping frantically in my chest. I am anxious and excited, and I can tell that every person in the hall is feeling the same way as I am. This is where it all ends now. This is the culmination of everything that we've worked so hard to achieve. Today is a very special day for me and Ari, and everyone present here today is going to celebrate this momentous occasion with us. And I've honestly been eagerly awaiting this moment as well for a very long time now. But, in addition to that, I am currently experiencing a wide range of emotions. And for the very first time in my life, I can feel my hands and legs trembling at the same time at just the thought of Ariella Gregory. A distinct kind of nervousness is what I am starting to experience because, even though I'm anxious as I stand here with my best man, my excitement for what today will bring outweighs my nervousness by a long shot. Today is my most anticipated day. I'm going to get married tod

    "There may still be time for you to make up your mind and change the decisions that you made, so are you sure that this is exactly what you intended to be doing?" Markus is acting like an a-hole as usual at this moment. "Sure, everything else with the villains of your lives is done and over with, but are you absolutely able to say that you wanted to marry him, that douche? Just tell me, Ariella, and I am willing to save you from this misery that you are about to get yourself into." I scowled at him as I crossed my arms in front of my chest to just let him know that he was not in the least amusing me and that I was beginning to get upset and clearly annoyed with him. "Markus, are you done grating on my nerves? If you are, can you shut the hell up now?" "What the heck, pumpkin? Why are you being so rude and surly? I'm merely trying to provide some clarity to your muddled and disorganized thinking. And I just want to let you know there is still enough time to back out." "Shut the heck

    "It’s alright, dear. It's actually a very sweet gesture from you. And it just shows how much you really love my daughter." "I really do love her." He said proudly. Ari is too pleased, and she can feel the butterflies in her stomach again just hearing Elliot's words of affection for her in front of her mother. "And I love him too, so much, mom." She said proudly as well, then turning her attention to her fiance she said. "And yeah, I'm actually making your breakfast, but I thought that something must have happened because you kept calling and shouting my name that I have to see you. Are you seriously missing me all that much?" He replied confidently, "I certainly do." Then he lowers his voice and whispers to Ari, "Let's go back up into our room and I'll show you how much I miss you and how much I love you." "I like that." Ari answered grinning. She then turned to face her mother asking her, "Mom, will you be an angel and take over in the kitchen? Elliot and I just need to discuss s

    Elliot immediately woke up from his sleep when he dreamed about Ariella not being beside him. He tried to reach for her but was surprised to find out that she was really no longer lying next to him. "Ari!" He exclaimed in an instant. He's been so protective of her since the recent incident that the prospect of losing her again fills him with dread. He has lost her so many times in the past that he will not allow it to happen again. He jumped out of bed and briskly walked into the bathroom to look for her. "Baby?" He called out to her again but still got no response. He then tried looking for her in the walk-in closet, but still, she was nowhere to be seen. "Baby, where are you?" He says to himself. Instantly, he began to feel uneasy. How could she have gone anywhere without him? Did she abandon him? But why? What did he do to merit that from her? He tried reaching out to her all the time, but Ari is still finding it hard to get through the events of last time, and as he and Ethan d

    It is extremely simple to fool this young man who thinks so highly of himself, and as Mattias nods his head in agreement with Lucio, the elderly man feels he has done an outstanding job. With that being said, he has to leave immediately before Mattias poses a lot of questions that he wouldn't be able to answer. After concluding his report, he said, "With all of that information revealed to you, I will put it to rest at that for the time being." He then grabbed the money and, having to put it in his bag, rose up from his seat and proceeded to go. "I need to leave right now because I have somewhere I need to be. Call me if your big boss has another assignment for me." He declared, turning to leave without waiting for Mattias to respond. "The Allisters—what's up with them then?" The moment Mattias posed that query, Lucio halted in his tracks. "What? What about the Allisters?" "Isn't it that you told me you have information concerning both Gregory and Allister?" Mattias inquired as he

    Lucio was so excited about this meet-up that he greeted Mattias as soon as he came through the door, saying, "Mattias, it's been quite some time since I last heard from you. What surprises do you have in store for me now? Did the boss seem to like everything that I had to say about the Gregory and Allister families? I need details about what went through with your plans." The most recent incidents involving the Wilsons, Gregorys, and Allisters are still unknown to Lucio. He still doesn't know that Mattias and his men have been captured and are under direct orders from Elliot, nor does he know that Matthew is already dead. He made the decision to maintain a low profile after receiving numerous threats from an anonymous gang, and since he doesn't have anyone to back him up solidly, he decided to stay put and keep silent for a little while. And now he's overjoyed that Mattias has summoned him. He may not have information now, but Mattias won't know that, so it will be easy money for
