“I got the tattoo when I was twenty-five years old, it is in honor of my parents. My mother always taught me to be tender, and gentle like flowers while my father taught me to be sharp and dangerous like swords,” Alessandro tells Amber with closed eyes. “So, your father is the sword, and the flowers symbolize your mother,” Amber breathes into his chest.

“Yes, Amber,” he kisses her head saying, “And now, you’re my flower.” She whispers, “And you’re my sword.”

The rays of the sun kiss the floor of their room, and their heavy eyelids open. They remain entangled in one another’s arms for a long time until they decide to head back home. Then, they head to their respective areas of work; guns and brushes.

Two days go by in a breeze, and Sunday arrives. They board the flight and head to Canoli Islands.

The white and elegant theme of the place is pleasing. The event takes place in an open-to-sky layout with waiters and waitresses serving expensive champagne, and the artists being complimente

    Amber’s pov: I got back to painting after I regained my composure. It took up over three hours of my time to finish half of it, and then, I hit my head on the pillow. “Amber…” Mhm, I open my eyes. “I’ve got some work to finish,” Alessandro whispers in my ear. “Right now?” I question. “Yeah, I’ll be back in a few hours,” he says. I squish his face, and say, “Be back as soon as possible.” He chuckles, and says, “I will.” Then, I go back to sleep. “Amber…Goodbye, I will miss you,” Alessandro speaks with tears in his eyes. “No, Alessandro, don’t leave me!” Amber’s shrieks are dismissed by the howling wind. “Alessandro!” She screams but her voice falls into the void. The rays of the sun on my face wake me up, and I see that the bed is cold without his presence. My worry turns into fear as I am wide awake and recall my dream. I rush to my phone and call him. No response. I put on my clothes, and push my feet into my shoes. Then, my phone rings. “Amber?” He asks. “Where are you?” I as

    Their steamy kissing session came to an end as the paparazzi surrounded the convertible, and the bodyguards tried their best to block the two from being captured on camera. Alessandro zoomed through the roads and headed back home. Amber and Alessandro chuckled in sync as they adjusted themselves in their seat. Two hours later, Alessandro received a call from Harlow. It was in speaker mode. “Looks like someone’s having a good time,” he says from the other end of the line. “What do you mean?” Alessandro asks Harlow. “The steamy kissing session that you and Amber were engulfed in has gone viral already. It’s been less than an hour since it was published, and it’s booming up,” he explains. Amber looks through the front page of her browser, and all the articles have the video in the highlights. “Damn it, ask Ken to take it down,” Alessandro orders. “No, Alessandro, let it stay…” Amber says with a smirk on her face. “Mhm, you didn’t seem too comfortable with it the last time, Amber, wh

    Amber's pov: “That day in Canoli, was it for the cafe that you had stepped out claiming that it was work?” I ask him. “Mhm,” he responds as he stretches out on the chair. His back muscles contract and relax which makes me twitch. “Alessandro…” I say it with an accent, and his head instantly turns around to face me. “What did I tell you last time, Mrs. Bianchi?” He questions as he shuts his laptop down. I walk up to him and prevent him from getting up by sitting down on his lap. “My turn,” I whisper in his ear as I blindfold him. I lead him down the stairs and position him right in front of the cake. Then, I say, “Open it…” He does and his lips curl into a smile as he looks at the cake. “What’s this for?” He questions. “Yeah right like you don’t know…” I gesture with my hands. “I don’t, Amber,” he says smiling at me, “Maybe you should tell me.” I walk close to him, and pull his head down to whisper in his ear, “Happy birthday, Alessandro…” He uses his index finger to swipe some

    Amber nibbles on the side of her cheek as she recalls the incident in her head. Alessandro is concerned as her expression changes from relaxed to confused. She lets out a sigh before she says, “On the fiftieth anniversary of Rousey Art Gallery, one which my mother was affiliated with at the time, and he was the man who bought my mother’s art piece for over a hundred thousand dollars.” Alessandro found that strange considering that Dante was not interested in art…He knew that he was fond of poetry, but art was not something that Dante was too keen about.“And a few months ago, Gretchen, my stepmother, and her daughter, Sasha, they spoke about him…But I can’t recall what they said since I never paid attention to all the men they talked about,” Amber told Alessandro. “Do you have an entrance pass for the gallery?” Alessandro asked while lost in thought. “I had it, but it’s at Pietro’s place,” Amber responds quickly, she wanted to ask Alessandro why he needed it, but she kept her mouth

    A Few Days Later “Tesoro, we’ve got an invitation to a ball,” Alessandro tells Amber who is busy typing on her laptop. “When is it?” Amber asks him without taking her eyes off the screen. “On Saturday,” he says scanning the invite. “We should pick Bee up, she would like to attend it,” Amber’s words make Alessandro wonder how he became lucky enough to have someone as considerate as her in his life. “Yeah, you’re right,” he says right before accepting the invite. Saturday Amber walks out in a silver-colored low-cut dress that accentuates her curves. She looks at Alessandro’s gaze, and asks, “See something you like?” He nods before coming closer and kissing her as he says, “You look beautiful.” He puts on a suit. A classic fit; white shirt with black coat and pants with a silver tie to match Amber’s attire. Amber’s eyes remain fixated on him before she says, “Mhm, I may be partial, but you will be the most handsome man in the hall tonight.” “Sometimes, it's good to be partial,” he

    “Your father made my father kiss his feet when he defeated him, but he was kind enough to let go of me as I was just a child, that was a huge mistake. And now, you will pay for it,” Santino said as he marched towards Alessandro. The members grabbed Amber by the arm, pulled her out of the room, and dropped her on the marble floor, a few meters away from Alessandro, whose eyes were bloodshot. “Kneel!” Santino growled. Alessandro scoffed. Santino shot his arm and said, “The next bullet won’t be for you.” Alessandro looked at Amber’s bright eyes, the light in them was slowly fading away. Alessandro kneeled before Santino. “Look at you, so helpless for this woman. The whole of the millions who are under you cannot save you from her. She has you wrapped around your fingers.” “I know that members of your family are standing outside, surrounding this place, one word from you and I’m as good as dead meat, but she’s at stake. Do you get it?” Santino taps himself on the back. “For a capo of

    The Next Morning “Alessandro, hurry up, the art gallery opens in half an hour,” Amber shakes his broad shoulders with her hands. “I thought we were training today…” Alessandro yawns through his words. “We were, but in case you forgot, you got shot yesterday, so let’s do something a little more relaxing,” Amber tells him as she packs her backpack. Alessandro rubs his eyes and looks at her. “Don’t forget the condoms,” he winks at her. She rolls her eyes saying, “I’ll take them, but that is not going to happen.” Alessandro chuckles and gets in the shower. Amber bites her bottom lip thinking about yesterday, his hands pinning her to the wall, his head buried in the crook of her neck, their bodies moving in rhythm… “Amber, wash those dirty thoughts away,” Alessandro tells her as he enters the room, dripping wet hair, his lower half covered with a towel. “How can I when you look like that?” She smirks at him taking baby steps in his direction. “Amber, we’re going to be late,” he warns

    Alessandro’s pov: I wake up to her every day, but every day is not enough, I need more. I’ve never believed in soulmates, but I know that she’s mine. Her bright browns hidden by her eyelids, her plump lips pressed together, and her hair all over me. I chuckle to myself thinking about last night. “Alessandro, art gallery,” she brushes my cheek with her thumb, her eyes still closed and my heart flutters with joy. “Yes, Tesoro, let’s go,” I kiss her knuckles. Five Hours Later “I want this to become our daily regime. Us going to either an art gallery or a shooting center every morning, spend time together till lunch, and then, head to our workplaces,” I tell her as I drop her off at her art gallery. “Me too,” she kisses me from outside the car, from the glass which is rolled down. “Deal, then?” I ask, holding out my hand like she had when we were signing the contract. “Deal!” She shakes my hand enthusiastically. Then, she turns on her heels and walks away into her abode of heaven.

    Amber’s pov: I hear Alessandro hum as he walks out of the bathroom with a toothbrush in his mouth. I chuckle and that catches his attention. He rushes back into the washroom, goes on about his unfinished business, and then comes out. “Tesoro, I missed you,” he kisses me. His breath is minty and cool. “It’s just been two hours since I’ve been out of your sight,” I manage to say between his gentle pecks. “There’s something that I would like to discuss,” he says, his tone dropping from bubbly to serious. “Sure, what is it that you’d like to discuss?” I ask him. He takes a seat on the bed next to me. “The one time that we spoke about children, you told me that you didn’t know what you wanted with them. I’d like to ask you the same question now…” he doesn’t look into my eyes as he speaks. “I would like to have children, but someday in the future, as of now, the art gallery is my baby, our baby,” I tell him, my hand wrapped around his shoulder. “I’m glad to know that we’re on the sam

    Two Weeks Later Alessandro’s pov: “And done!” I hear Amber exclaim behind me as she drops the last box on the floor. “Mrs. Bianchi, you sound like you did all the work,” I tease her hoping to receive a sassy response. “I did a lot of work,” she exhaled sharply. “I mean, three boxes and three steps are a lot,” I tell her. She groans and strikes a pat on my back. I chuckle. Then, I turn around and say, “I can’t believe we made it.” Amber stands next to me and intertwines our digits. "Me neither," she utters. "We certainly made the right choice," she says. I nod. My eyes roam to the kitchen counter. "I can't wait to see you on top of that counter," I utter making Amber roll her eyes, saying, "And there goes the moment." I chuckle. She picks up the box and walks up the stairs to settle things around the place. At the housewarming ceremony, when Richard mentioned Maria's house in Canoli, I knew that we had to check it out, but I never knew that it'd turn out to be such a blessing.

    Amber’s pov: Alessandro pulls over and I tilt my head scanning the location. “This place looks like it was artificially created using a hologram,” I tell him as he unfastens his seatbelt. He does mine as well. “Uh-huh,” he says as he steps out of the vehicle. “Is this place yours?” I question as we walk towards a tiny cabin hidden amongst tall trees. “No,” he says, taking my hand in his. Alessandro knocks on the door. He intertwines our fingers. A middle-aged woman opens the door, greeting us with a smile. “Amber, this is Anna Solem. Anna, as promised, this is my wife, Amber Bianchi,” Alessandro says. “Anna, it’s so nice to meet you,” I smile at her, “How is everything now?” I question. “It’s fine, my sister, Maria Rosela, is doing much better,” she explains, “Now, now, this place is for sale since Maria’s planning to move out of the country. However, it seems like no one wants to live in an isolated area of the island, because despite being for sale for the past month, it hasn

    One Week Later “Anna?” Alessandro asks, his phone on speaker. “Yes, Alessandro, it’s me,” she replies. “Richie and I are planning to host a party in honor of purchasing our first house together, and we would love it if you and your family could be a part of it,” Anna tells Alessandro. “Thank you for the invite, I will talk to my wife and let you know about it immediately,” Alessandro lets her know as he cleans the countertop with a cloth. “How’re you? How’s Richard?” Alessandro asks. Anna replies in the positive. They converse for a few more minutes before the call ends. “Tesoro,” Alessandro rings up Amber. “Yes, my love?” She replies. Alessandro’s lips curl into a soft smile. “Anna Solem is hosting a housewarming party and she has invited us..” Alessandro is cut off as Amber says, “Can Bee come with us?” Alessandro replies, “I’ll ask her.” Amber feels relieved and worried at the same time. “Don’t worry, Tesoro, it’ll be alright,” Alessandro assured her. Amber’s pov: Bee will un

    “Harlow, regardless of all that had been going down behind the scenes, you have always been a good brother to me. I always looked up to you and learned so much from you. These twenty years have been one hell of a ride of emotions…” Alessandro lets out a sigh, “And I’d hate for you to die.” Harlow scoffs. “Even after all that I’ve done, you’re trying to make it seem like I’m not the bad guy, this is another reason why you were never a successful capo,” Harlow utters. Alessandro shakes his head, then says, “Maybe I was never meant to be one, Harlow.” Alessandro holds Harlow’s reluctant hand in his for a few seconds and then rests it back on his chest. “Goodbye, brother,” Alessandro utters and walks back to Amber. They then drive back home. On the way back, the taxi ride is filled with silence until Alessandro’s phone rings. “Ken?” Alessandro mutters. “Harlow had infiltrated your security system in every possible way, but I’ve got it back on track now, you and Amber have a great securi

    “Alessandro,” Amber sniffles. “I missed you,” she mutters. Alessandro and Amber hold each other close, without a care for the world around them. Alessandro pulls her closer, but the closeness isn’t enough, not after all these days of separation. “Tesoro,” Alessandro whispers, “How’re you?” “I’m fine now, Alessandro. Now that you’re by my side…” Amber sniffles. Tears cloud Alessandro’s vision as he buries his head in the crook of Amber’s neck. “My heart nearly stopped as Harlow blurted those words, Tesoro,” Alessandro uttered. “Lucky for you, I’m still alive,” she chuckles as she pulls away from Alessandro’s embrace. He wipes her tears away and she does the same for him. “Let’s wrap this up,” she utters as she walks close to an injured Harlow. Alessandro walks close to Harlow and glares at him. Harlow, as expected, laughs, his laugh echoing through their ear walls. “Both of you are equally pathetic, emotional fools, perfect for one another, truly a match made in heaven and hell

    Alessandro’s pov: I stand there in silence. Knowing that words would do nothing to add to the moment. Harlow jerks me back even further. I don’t resist, a million thoughts flow through my mind. What if he harms Amber? What if he harms Ken? What if he- My what-ifs are cut off as soon as Harlow pushes me one final time and I feel the water at my feet. “Why?” The only question that can leave my lips. Harlow scoffs and turns his back to me. He walks a few steps straight ahead. “Why?” He whispers. I could feel his smirk grow. “Why?! I should’ve asked dad that when he assigned you, the younger brother, the role of capo when I was far more capable,” Harlow utters. I remain calm as he continues, “Alessandro Bianchi, the capo of the Bianchis…Ever since father uttered those words, I was set on proving him wrong, but how unfortunate is it that he died before he could understand anything?” “Alessandro, before you stands not only the one who separated you from the love of your life for the

    Alessandro’s pov: “Brother, I need you. One last time, like the old times,” Harlow utters. “What for?” I question, my confusion genuine. “Let’s watch the destruction of Santino Martino, together,” Harlow says, surprising me with his words. “What do you mean?” I pretend to act a fool. “I will let you in on the details, where are you right now?” Harlow questions. “I’m at my workplace,” I lie. “Great, I’ll be there in twenty,” he ends the call with that. “What was that all about?” Ken questions me. “I’ve got no idea, but it’s time to find out,” I tell him as I adjust my tie and roll down my sleeves. “You’ve got no security with you,” Ken says. “I know, it’ll be a one-man show from my end,” I tell him. “That’s stupid, Alessandro, at least take a gun,” Ken hands me my shotgun, one that I haven’t touched since I shot Santino’s brother. “No, Ken. I’ll be fine,” I let him know. He rolls his eyes at me saying, “You’re walking into your doom.” “Maybe I am, maybe it’s what I deserve for ki
