Valentino followed Luke around like a lost puppy as they waited for Alessandra's school day to end. Luke ran his errands as usual, the only difference was that he had Valentino to boss around. Valentino never complained. He followed whatever Luke told him to do. Luke didn't feel impressed by this, he thought that Valentino was trying too hard.

They brought the bags of groceries inside the apartment. Luke checked his watch and saw that it was already time to pick up Alessandra. Luke told Valentino to leave the groceries alone since it was time to pick their daughter up. As they walked, Luke maintained his distance as always. Valentino wanted to hold Luke's hand in his, but he knew he'd just get pushed away.

Alessandra was waiting by the gate beside Mr. Haru once again. She seems to be quite fond of the teacher. Alessandra ran towards them as soon as she spotted her parents. She was excited to spend the rest of the day with them. Luke opened his arms for a hug, but Alessandra went stra

    Luke was awoken by a flash suddenly going off. Luke groaned in annoyance and pulled the blanket over his head."Don't hog the blanket." Valentino groaned half asleep as he pulled Luke closer to him.Suddenly, Luke was wide awake upon hearing Valentino's. He tried to sit up and get away from him, but Valentino's arm was wrapped tightly around him. Luke heard giggles behind him and saw Alessandra with his phone. He tried to calm himself so that he wouldn't end up upsetting his daughter. "Give me the phone, Alessandra," Luke said with a firm tone.Alessandra dejectedly handed her dad the phone. He unlocked it and found pictures of him and Valentino cuddling in the gallery. Luke checked behind him to see if Alessandra was there, but she was already in her room. Luke sighed in relief and deleted the pictures of him and Valentino. He put down the phone before trying to get off of Valentino once again. Valentino wouldn't budge, but Luke didn't want him to wake up and see them in this positi

    Luke waits by the gate for Alessandra to come out. Soon enough, she walked out of the school with Mr. Haru. Alessandra ran to Luke as soon as she saw him and Luke picked him up in his arms. "Daddy, I want to see sobo Himiko," Alessandra told her dad. Haru walked over to them and gave a small wave to Luke, which he returned."Of course. We'll go see her." Luke said before facing Haru. "Do you want to come with us?" He asked Haru.Alessandra suddenly gasped in excitement. "Yes, Mr. Haru. Sobo Himiko is very nice. You should come to meet her!" Alessandra exclaimed, bouncing in her dad's arms in excitement. "Himiko? The flower shop owner? She's my grandaunt. How do you know her?" Haru asked.Luke's heart suddenly dropped when he heard what Haru had said. He suddenly had suspicions that Haru was in the mafia as well, but how could he be a teacher? Luke pondered over the thought for a moment and decided to just confirm it with Himiko later. "Yeah, I work for her," Luke replied, pushing

    Alessandra ignored her dad the whole morning that they were getting ready. She wouldn't even look back at her dad as they walked to her school. Luke understands that Alessandra is unable to deal with what she's feeling at the moment. He just wanted to give her space and let her come to him when she was ready. Mr. Haru was waiting by the school gate and tried to greet Alessandra, but he was ignored as well. Haru looks dejected and Luke gives him a pat on the back."She's been ignoring me as well. I don't want to force her to talk to me when she doesn't want to." Luke said."I'm sorry about last night. I made a move too early, if I didn't this wouldn't have happened." Haru apologized."It's not your fault. Alessandra must've thought I was replacing her father. I'll talk to her later, okay? For now, try to talk to her, just don't force her." Luke said."Sure, I'll try to talk to her," Haru replied.Luke waved goodbye before making his way to work. Himiko greeted him when he entered the s

    Valentino reached Luke's apartment as Luke finished packing Alessandra's bag. He wanted to go and stay with them, but ALessadnra didn't want him to. She reasoned with him that she wanted to spend some days along with Valentino as well as it has only been the two of them for the past four years. Luke begrudgingly agreed to let her stay and he'll pick her up on her birthday two days from now. Luke opened the door and handed Alessandra's bag to Valentino. Alessandra ran to her father's arms as soon as she saw him. Her excitement was visible on her face."Where's your bag?" Valentino asked Luke."Alessandra wanted to stay with you alone. She doesn't want me to come. I'll just drop her off." Luke replied, swallowing the tears that were threatening to escape. "Are you okay with it?" Valentino asked."I have no choice. I don't want her to get mad at me." Luke said."I'll take care of her, I promise," Valentino said. "Don't take her away from me, Valentino. Please." Luke said as he grabbed

    Luke slowly woke up as the light glared harshly through the window. Luke stretched his arms out before sitting up from the bed. Luke then realized that he was in a different room from last night. He quickly got off the bed and looked around the room in a panic. fear settled in when he realized where he was. He was in the same exact room he was in when they were in Italy. Luke quickly ran to the door when he remembered Alessandra, but the door was locked from the outside.He ran towards the windows but tripped over a chain. Luke fell to the floor with a loud thud, making him hiss in pain. Luke pushed himself up and found his ankles tied with a chain. Luke muttered a curse under his breath as he tried to find a way to break free from the chain. The doorknob started to rattle so Luke ran back to the bed and laid down, pretending to be asleep. Footsteps neared the bed and Luke felt the side of the bed dip. He could feel fingers tucking the hair away from his face. Luke was too scared to

    Luke decided to take a shower when he got back to his room. When he got out, he saw his phone ringing. He checked the caller ID and saw that it was Haru before answering it."Hey." Luke greeted."Hey, uhm, I noticed it was just Leon who sent Alessandra to school today," Haru said."Oh, uhm, yeah. We're currently staying at his house and I overslept so Leon sent her alone." Luke replied. "Oh," Haru replied and Luke sensed disappointment in his voice."Is there something wrong?" Luke asked."Uh, I think your relationship with Leon is a lot more complicated than I thought," Haru replied."What do you mean?" Luke asked, confused as to what Haru was insinuating."I think it's better that we remain friends," Haru replied and he was meant with silence. Luke felt more than disappointed. He was hurt. He had a chance to have a normal relationship, but once again, Valentino got in the way."Lex?" Haru called out."I, uhm, I understand. Yeah, I do think it's better to be friends." Luke said alt

    It was the next day and Luke was anxiously waiting for Haru to come by. Himiko cleared out some space in the office to give them room to talk. Haru finally came by and they were immediately pushed by Himiko inside the office. Himiko gave them a cheeky smile before closing the door behind her. Luke didn't hesitate as he pulled Haru into a kiss. Haru kissed him back, wrapping his arms around Luke's waist.Haru slowly pulled away and rested his forehead against Luke's "Lex," Haru breathed out."Hmm." Luke hummed in response."You're really making it hard to resist you, huh?" Haru teased."Am I?" Luke asked innocently before placing his lips against Haru's once again."This is going to be hard for Alessandra." He muttered against Luke's lips."I know. I'll try my best to make her understand. I'm just asking for your patience," Luke said pulling away and looking into Haru's eyes."I'll try my best to be patient. I'm sorry for not talking to you first before deciding for the both of us."

    "What should we do for Alessandra's birthday tomorrow?" Luke asked Valentino after they tucked Alessandra into her bed."I already planned everything. You don't need to worry about it." Valentino replied.Luke's jaw ticked in annoyance. "And you didn't even bother to consult me about it?" He asked rather harshly. Valentino sighed. "I'm sorry. I just thought I would give you a break from all the planning. Just let me carry the burden for once." Valentino said."Did you do the invites as well?" Luke asked.Luke knew he should at least appreciate Valentino's efforts. It's just that he can't help but feel inadequate as a parent. Valentino's efforts feel as if he's trying to one-up Luke. "Yes, I invited her classmates, their parents, and teachers as well," Valentino replied."Thanks," Luke muttered in a low voice before turning his back to Valentino."Luke," Valentino called out.Luke sighed and turned to look at Valentino. "What is it?" Luke asked."Can we get along? At least for tomorr

    It's been two months since the incident and peace has been maintained since then. The Japanese mafia moved their main house to a gated community near the city after it was destroyed. Luke has fully recovered from his gunshot wound and Romero was granted citizenship, or faked rather, by Haru so he can stay in Japan without hiding anymore. He has also become Alessandra's personal bodyguard or babysitter.Luke and Alessandra are now living in Haru's personal home. Luke has also decided to homeschool Alessandra for now. Valentino remained true to his words and remained in contact with Luke for the sake of Alessandra. Alessandra seemed to have recovered well from the past events, seeing how she was bubbly and full of life. "Valentino's going to be here in a few hours," Luke said, worry evident in his voice. "How's Alessandra?" Haru asked."She's fine. She's actually quite excited to see him. It surprised me," Luke said. "I guess she still sees him as her father."Haru pulled Luke close a

    "I want you to promise me something," Luke said as he wrapped his hand around the knife. "What are you doing?" Valentino said, barely above a whisper."Promise me something Valentino, please," Luke pleaded. "I don't want you to die, I can't. Because for some fucked up reason, part of me still loves you."Valentino weakly grabbed Luke's free hand. "That's a good thing to hear before I die," Valentino weakly chuckled, blood spurting out of his mouth."Valentino, please, promise me, you'll let me and Alessandra stay here. Please, I just want a normal life. As normal as I can have it, please let me stay," Luke said.Valentino didn't answer, he didn't know what to say. He could only let the tears flow down his face. When he still didn't answer, Luke slowly moved the knife and Valentino quickly grabbed his hand to stop him from moving it further. "I'll let you stay. I promise. I'll let you stay. As long as you won't keep Alessandra from me. I still want to see her from time to time," Vale

    Haru was rounding up his men in the main house as they anticipated the attack of the Italians. As Haru was distributing the firearms among his men, an explosion sounded from the left side of the main house, shaking the grounds of the mansion. Haru cursed under his breath as he and his men split to search for more explosives planted around the house. The others went to search for wounded men.Haru pulled out his gun as he entered the living room. One of the men was holding a detonator. Haru aimed his gun at the man and warned him to put the detonator down."Put the detonator down!" Haru shouted at the man in front of him. The man only gave him a sinister smile before pressing the button, detonating the bomb. The explosion sent Haru flying across the room as rubble fell from the ceiling. Haru groaned in pain as he tried to stand up from the ground. He tried calling for his men, but another explosion shook the house. "Shit!" Haru cursed.Haru then ran to the exit as the ground shook ar

    "Buenos dias, Valeria. I see you finally take over again. I'm surprised you even let your son rule for that long," Damaso said as he took a long drag from his cigar."So you're the only one who showed up huh," Valeria said as she leaned back on her chair."Yes. The British could not give a shit about this. The Greeks are probably siding with the Japanese. I don't understand why they would do that. They're both weak. Even if you combine both their manpower," Damaso exclaimed."We need firepower. We'll give them back and grab some from the Japanese once we defeat them," Valeria said."So what's your plan?" he asked."Simple, I have moles in their mafia for a long fucking time now. I'm telling you, I thought I was going to get nothing out of it, but now I've proven that I didn't waste my time on planting them," Valeria said with pride in her voice."What are the moles going to do then?" Damaso asked."Plant some bombs and once they're detonated, we'll sweep out the rest. It wouldn't be t

    "What is happening?" A little voice said while looking at the gun pointed at her dad's head.Luke could no longer hold back the tears from running down his face. He desperately tried to cover his sobs. Valeria didn't bother to put her gun down as she faced the little girl."Hey, sweetheart. We're just sending your daddy back where he belongs," she said."Mother put the gun down. Alessandra could see it," Valentino said to his mother through gritted teeth."Oh shush. You saw a gun when you were three and killed someone when you were six. She'll be fine," Valeria said.Alessandra then realized what was happening and ran to her dad. Haru took this opportunity to grab both Luke and Alessandra and hid them behind his back."Don't let them hurt us, please," Alessandra cried.Valentino cursed under his breath and glared at his mother. Valeria only rolled her eyes. Valentino slowly approached Alessandra and crouched in front of her. Alessandra hid further behind Haru."Come to me, Alessandra.

    "We had a truce, Valentino. For decades no one dared to turn their back on that truce. Not even you. I was wondering why all of a sudden you do something that you know will initiate a war," Haru said while maintaining a calm composure."I didn't like how she was pushing Luke away from me," Valentino said."Luke's not your property. He's an adult who can decide for himself which is something your small little brain apparently can't comprehend," Haru mocked.Valentino clenched his fists beside him. He wanted to punch Haru in the face, but they were in public and if he did, any talk of reforming the truce would be nonexistent."Why don't we have lunch together? It seems like you have already started so let me just join you," Haru said, walking past Valentino.He took the seat between Luke and Alessandra and gave Alessandra a small smile."I'm sorry for hurting you last time," Alessandra apologized."It's okay. I understand you were going through some big emotions. We can always learn how

He walked into the dining area where Luke was helping Alessandra eat her breakfast."Luke," Valentino called out as he approached Luke.Luke looked up at him as Valentino inspected the wound on his neck."Are you feeling okay?" Valentino asked.Luke pulled Valentino near him to whisper in his ear. "We'll talk later," he said and then pointed his eyes over at Alessandra. Valentino nodded before taking a seat beside Alessandra. Alessandra cut her pancakes and offered them to Valentino. He graciously took the piece into his mouth and Alessandra gave him a delighted smile."You like your breakfast?" Valentino asked."Yes, but I would prefer more strawberries," Alessandra replied.Luke smiled at his little girl. He was glad she hadn't noticed the wound on his neck despite the visible bandage on it and he plans to keep it that way. Once Alessandra was done, Elisse came into the room and took her dishes away."Elisse,

    Luke woke up the next day with sensations along his neck. He opened his eyes and saw Valentino on top of him, kissing and sucking the skin on his neck. Luke froze as he realized what Valentino was doing. Valentino noticed this so he lifted up his head and smiled down at Luke."Good morning," he greeted before kissing Luke on the lips. Luke kept his gaze away from Valentino as he caressed his cheek with his thumb. Valentino leaned down and kissed Luke on the cheek before going down on his neck again. Valentino left one last mark on his neck before getting off of Luke."You look even more beautiful in that gown in the daylight," Valentino said.Luke slowly sat up on the bed before getting off, but Valentino grabbed his arm. "Let's shower together. I want to see you again," Valentino said.Luke didn't answer but it was enough for a yes for Valentino. He got off the bed and pulled Luke to the bathroom. Luke stood with his back to Valentino as he took off his clothes. Valentino then wen

Goodbye," Romero said as he was being escorted out."What are you going to do to him?" Luke asked Valentino."He's going home to his family," Va
