“We’ve searched these five areas over the last four months and found nothing.” One of William’s men points at the list of French’s property. We’ve been searching for Sylvester for the last four months. On the list, twelve are crossed out and only two remain, yet we still have not found him or any clue of where he could be.

“ We’ll start searching his Mount Vista property tomorrow and then we’ll search the property in Utah.”

“How long will that take?” I ask.

“About two weeks for each.”

“Okay.” I ease back into the chair and rub my temple. This is harder than I thought it would be.

“You okay, man?” William asks after dismissing Mike from the room.

“It’s been four months and we haven’t fo

    “Caputo.” Governor Brooks calls, but I ignore him and head straight for the door. Just then, the door swings open, and standing there is Theodore French.I step back and pull Fenice close to me as the snake smiles. I clench my fist. I have seen him once at a hotel two months ago, but he kept his distance then.“Giovanni Caputo, just the man I want to see. Brandi, look you stunning.” Fenice scowls as she squeezes my hand. I squeeze back to reassure her I’m here and he can’t hurt her.“Who invited you?” Governor brooks asks as he glares at Theodore.“Ahh, Fred.”“It’s Governor to you.”“Not for much longer,” French says.“According to the polls, I have another four years coming.

    GiovanniThirty minutes. It’s been thirty minutes since I found her empty car and I have been on edge. Wondering where she is? Fuck! I should have stopped her when she tried to leave or follow her myself. But none of that matters. All that matters is finding her.“Cap, We’re here,” William says.I look up the modest house that supposed to be French San Antonio home. Fucking French. I know I should have killed him the first time he laid his hands on her. If anything happens to her or my children. I clench my jaw and inhale deeply as I look at the one-story house.“Are you sure this is it?” He nods.“Our boys trailed him back here after leaving the party.” I nod, pull my gun from my pocket, and open the door.“Any security.”

    BrandiA sharp kick in my stomach pulls me from sleep. I open my eyes slowly, adjusting to the sunlight coming in. I’m disoriented for a minute, but then it all comes back to me. I remembered what happened the night my mother died and Colin sedating me again after I confronted him. I look around the room. I’m alone. Where is he? I freeze as I realize I’m in the room that once belonged to my parents. Well, at least a replica. My breathing slows as I examine the paintings and the furniture. Everything is the same, even the bed. Mom loved sunflowers so dad made a bedhead with sunflowers and gave it to her for their 10th anniversary. I smile as I remember how happy we were that day when suddenly, the image of my parents lying on this bed covered in blood pops into my head.My hands shake as image as my breathing gets heavier.Bang, Bang.“Mom, Dad,”“No!” I scream as the scene replays in my head. No, mom, no. I cry out when another sharp kick pulls me back to the current moment. I look dow

    “Slut! I should have killed you a long time ago,” she screams as she lunges, grabbing me by my bun, but before she can pull it, I hit her in the eye once again. She cries out in pain and stumbles back. Before she has time to recover from that blow. She drags me to the ground with her and punches me in the stomach. I wince from the pain but quickly recover. She’s trying to hurt my babies. Rage fills me as I slam her head into the ground. Then I punch her as she screams and begs me to stop. I’m not even sure what’s happening anymore, all of this rage is coursing through my body like a wildfire burning down everything in its path: every memory of every punch, slap, or kick she’s thrown my way gives me more strength to keep hitting her. The first drop of blood trickles out of her nose, causing me to pause and pulling me back to my senses. What? I look at my bruised fist and her face. The anger burning in me makes me want to put her on the ground, but I can’t give in to it or I’ll become ju

    Brandi Tes closes the door and walks away with Cops following him. I inhale and settle back in the seat, resting my head as I think about everything that happened today. Fighting Carmen, Carina, Collin killing Carmen and me killing Collin. I look down at my hands that pull the trigger and shiver. I killed someone. Not just someone, Colin, the man who has haunted me for years. The reason I never felt safe until I got with Tes. The man who killed my mother and shot my father. Shouldn’t I feel something? Relief? Joy? Now that he is gone? Why do I feel nothing? Just a hollow feeling of emptiness. Maybe the emotions will come later when all the adrenaline and shock wear off, or perhaps they will never come because I found peace the last couple of months with Tes. Colin had long become an afterthought, who no longer had any power over me. Either way, I’m glad it’s over and done with. No more looking behind my shoulder, wondering if he’ll be coming after me next. Now all I want to do is put

    GioThey hold each other, both crying as I stand back and watch; providing them the space to become reacquainted. I know how much this means to Fenice, having him back with her after all this time. I know losing him and her mother had taken apart her heart that I could never fill, no matter how hard I tried or how hard I loved her. That was a space only a parent could fill, so I was always afraid that part of her heart would remain hollow. But with him here, I don’t have to worry about that anymore.“Sweetheart,” her father says, but Fenice doesn’t budge. She keeps holding him as if she is afraid he will disappear if she lets him go.“Sweetie.”“I missed you so much.” she finally says through sobs.“I thought of you every single day. There was never a moment I didn’t think of my sweet little girl. I’m sorry. I should have tried harder. I should have done mo—” He stops when Fenice pulls away.“It wasn’t your fault, dad. None of it was and none of it matters.” She smiles as tears roll do

    “Your water?” I look down at the ground. Her water broke. That means the babies. She’s having the babies. My heart races from excitement. She’s having the babies! “Tes!” she yells snapping me from my thoughts. What am I doing? I need to get her to the hospital. “I’m here baby. I’m here. Breathe. I’ll get you to the hospital,” I say as I turn off the shower, grab a towel, wrap it around her, lift her in my arms and carry her out of the bathroom. “How far apart are the contractions?” “I don’t know. I don’t.. ahhhhh!” She screams as she grabs my shoulder. My heart aches with every scream that escapes her lips. She’s so strong, but I can’t stand seeing how much it hurts her. I clench my jaw as her screaming stops. “That was the first big one.” Her voice trembles as tears run down her face. “Please hurry!” She says between gasps for air. “I’ll get you there..” I say as I put her on the bed. “Ahhhhhhhhh-” Her cries start up again when another contraction hits her hard, making her body

    Brandi 6 months later Tes holds my hand as we make our way up the staircase towards the courthouse. Today is Theodore’s sentencing after being found guilty of kidnapping and accessory to murder and rape. It’s been a hard three weeks recounting all the things Theodore witnessed Colin do to me, but finally, after thirteen years of thinking I’ll never get justice, today it will be over once he gets the maximum sentence. “Are you okay?” Tes asks as we stop before the door to wait for dad and Jillian. They are still seeing each other. It was strange at first, but I like them together. I nod. “He was convicted, but I’m still worried about sentencing. What if he only gets five years?” “The jury recommended a twenty-year minimum.” “I know, but Theodore was a big shot in this town. What if they let him off easy?” I had learned a long time that the law isn’t always equal for those with money and influence. “The world is watching. It would be hard for them to give him a slap on the wrist,

    BrandiI sit in the chair waiting for the make-up artist to finish her work as my heart thunders in my chest. This is it. I’m getting married—I glance at the clock. Twenty minutes. I have been prodded, plunked, and tucked all morning, and now all I have to do is put on my dress and walk down the aisle to the man I love.“You’re still doing her make-up?” G asks as the door opens with a bang and she comes rushing in. She has been in a frenzy since this morning.“Hey, G. You look amazing,” I say as I admire the champagne, maid of honor dress she’s wearing. She stops and grins, then twirls to give me the full picture.“Don’t I—-wait. Don’t change the subject. Why is she still doing your make-up? It’s almost time.”“I asked her to change the eye shadow to something lighter,” I explain.“Oh, but we only have eighteen minutes.”“I’m almost done.” The make-up artist states.G paces back and forth. “How soon is almost?

    Meanwhile Brandi I pull the covers tight and reach for a handful of popcorn as I focus on the TV. After cleaning yesterday, I have been flipping between crying and watching movies and TV shows. Except for two hours today, G convinced to me get my hair done because the wedding is tomorrow. I hope it is tomorrow, but I’m still uncertain what will happen because I haven’t spoken to Tes since I told him he has until Sunday to figure it out. I don’t know what he’s thinking, even suggesting postponing the wedding. How could he think I need more time? I’m so angry and hurt, I want to hate him. I should hate him right now for putting me through this, but I can’t. I miss him. I ache for his arms holding me. I miss his smile in the morning. I miss our family. I sniff as tears stain my cheeks. “Are you okay? Do you need anything? Ice Cream?” Gia asks, pushing the tub of butter pecan to me. I sigh and grab the spoon and take a big bite. “Better?” I nod before taking another bite. “Your father

    GiannaI pull in through the gate and look around, stunned at the lawn covered in furniture. What is all this? I wonder as I park the car. Are they moving? Neither Dad nor B said anything before this. I slip out of the car and grab my purse before heading to the door when I see Martha approaching.“Ms. Gia.” She says, smiling when she sees me.“Hey, Martha. Are Papi and B moving?”She shakes her head. “Mrs. Caputo woke up this morning, asked us to move the furniture outside, and started cleaning.” She explains.Mrs. Who? I furrow my brows when I realize she is talking about B. I guess she will be Mrs. Caputo in a couple of days. It feels so strange for her to marry Papi, but now I’m okay with it. Happy even, since he makes her happy, and they gave me two of the cutest brothers in the world. I smile, thinking of their chubby cheeks.“Ms. Gia?” Martha calls, pulling me from my thoughts.“Oh, B asked you to move them out?” She nods.“She was in a frenzy this morning about getting the hou

    Brandi Twenty minutes ago I examine the sample of Birch wood on my desk. I like it, but I’m not in love with it like I am with the soft maple. I sigh. Why did the supplier have a shortage of the only wood I like? Well, it doesn’t matter. I have to choose one of these before the call. Shannon likes the ash, but ash is not durable enough and I want people to pass these on to their kids, not throw them out. I need another opinion. Maybe I should have had Tes stop by with dinner and help me decide. I pick up my phone to call him but hesitate when I remember how tired he was today. Tes is already stretched thin with taking care of the boys, last-minute wedding prep, and getting his company ready for his absence during our honeymoon. Although he never complains, I’m sure he is exhausted. His only being able to have sex once last night is proof. That man never falls asleep before going at it at least twice. It’s a good thing this project is almost complete. Once we’re done with picking th

    I need to find a doctor, but how do I do it on such short notice? I pull out my phone to call Jorge my assistant.“Good Morning Boss. Are you coming into the office today?”“No. Jorge, I need a doctor.”“Oh, for what? Is Mrs, okay? My nephews?” He says, reacting as his usual dramatic self.“Fenice is fine, and so are the boys. I pulled my back last night and need to get it checked out. Can you find me a doctor? I need it today.”“I will be right on it.”“Thank you.”“You know. I had a problem once. I was in Colorado when my boyfriend at the time got a little rough. He was hitting it from the back. He can be a little rough.”“Jorge, is there a point to this story?”“oh right. So my back gave out. We were snowed in so I couldn’t see a doctor. I did yoga for two days. My back felt brand new by the time we left.”“So you’re saying I should try yoga?”“Exactly. I bet it will have you feeling brand new or you can go see those pill pushers who’ll pump you full of drugs and overcharge you.” I

    GiovanniWilliam pulls into the driveway and sighs. We chased her as far as the traffic cameras could track, but we eventually reached a dead end when she took a back road with no cameras. She’s smart. I give her that and she is also striking to look at. I can see why William is enamored with her beauty, even though she is a thief.“What did she say to you?”“Huh?” I furrow my brows.“Brandi said she found you two together. Did she try to sleep with you?” He asks through clenched teeth. I can tell the thought of that pisses him off.“She walked in and pretended to be lost, then she fainted so I would catch her. I told her to drop the act and Fenice walked in. I don’t know if she would have tried.” My voice trails off as I see him getting noticeably angrier.“Don’t worry. You’ll find her.”“How many men will she have fucked and used by then?” His eyes flash angrily.“What does it matter?”“They are touching something that’s mine—” His voice trails off when he realizes what he’s saying.

    I push the stroller towards the store about to go meet Amber and G, who invited herself last minute when she called this morning. “B.” I hear her call from behind. I turn slightly and see her coming fast, waving. “You brought them!” She squeals after seeing the stroller. “You wanted to see them. Here you go.” I push the stroller towards her and hand her their bag. “What’s all this?” “You asked me to bring them, so you’re going to look after them. I’m here to shop. Boys, your big sister will take care of you. Be nice.” I say, blowing each a kiss and then heading through the door of Hermes. “Wait. I don’t know.” I hear her behind me. “B, you can’t do this.” I sigh as she struggles to open the door while pushing the stroller. I roll my eyes and walk back to the door and hold it open while she pushes it inside. “Why didn’t you bring one of the nannies?” “They are off on weekends when Tes and I are free. You wanted me to bring them, so you’re the nanny today.” “What? All I wanted t

    Brandi“Tes come on.” I fold my arms as I wait for him to exit the car. We went shopping, and he agreed we would each pick an outfit we wanted the other to wear and we get to choose the occasion it would be worn. He picked out a white dress and a matching lingerie set. The dress is to be worn to his birthday dinner next Tuesday and the lingerie for tonight. I picked an outfit for our date in the park. Dark washed jeans, a tight-fitting t-shirt with a black leader jacket, and combat boots. He has been complaining since he stepped out of the dressing room, but a deal is a deal. “Tes, come on,” I call again, growing impatient.“I don’t think is a good idea. I should go home and change.” He says, still sitting in the car.“We made a deal. You picked my dress and that string you want me wearing tonight. If you want to see me wear that tonight, come out of the car.” He frowns as he steps. I smile as I look at him. He does not know how good he looks, but I’m sure he’ll turn a few heads.“I

    Brandi I take a sip of the shot, trying to pace myself because I already feel a little too good, and I know I’m on my way to being drunk for the first time in my life. I look at the shot and then watch as Gianna downs another one. Tonight reminds me of high school when she would get wasted, so I would have to take care of her. I guess some things never change. I put the glass down on the bar top. “No, no, no. What are you doing?” “I have already had five. You’re on your seventh.” “Eight. I brought you here to get drunk and party our asses off.” “One of us needs to stay sober and make sure nothing happens.” “We’re in Uncle Williams’ club surrounded by security. Nothing will happen.” “You never know-” “B, he’s gone. You can relax.” She says as she picks up and hands me the shot. She doesn’t say another word, instead; she turns back to the bar and orders more shots. I look at the shot in my hand as her words play in my head. I know she is talking about Colin.
