1 year later... "You can't just say no Rose. Your wedding is in three days! And we still do not have your dress!" Rose groaned at her annoying sister. Couldn't she leave her for once and let her sleep? Her sleep was more important than anyone's. And by anyone she meant anyone. Well ..maybe except a certain someone. "What the heck Lily, it's not even 9 in the morning and you are babbling like a baboon here in my room. Go make more babies with your husband!" She huffed before stuffing her face back in her pillows. Lily had given birth to a healthy baby boy a few months back and to say he was adorable would be an understatement. He was an exact copy of his father, but was a Mama's boy. Lily was already 3 months pregnant at her wedding but found out only after her honeymoon night, when in the morning she woke up vomiting like crazy. Vincenzo had taken her to the doctor instantly and found out that they would become parents soon. He was beyond happy. He couldn't believe that he was fina
He sighed after entering his room after another rough day. This included eliminating a few people who were just ugly to deal with. It wasn't really hard for him to kill anyone as it came naturally. He was pushed into this world reluctantly. His name was enough to fill people with terror and make them shudder with fear. Vincenzo is what he was known as; the leader of the Italian Mafia.Being a gang leader had its perks, but sometimes it really got on the nerves. He pondered over what it would be like to live like a normal person. But he knew it wasn't in his fate. Peace was something he had always looked for but kissed goodbye a long time back. It was something lost on a dreadful night where he did a vicious deed which he regrets till date. Something he couldn't forgive himself for. He only wished he could find a place or a person he could confide into or run away to a place where nobody could reach him. Peace was all he wanted. Peace was what he would never get. He made his way to his
Rose was enjoying her beauty sleep when her shrilling ringtone broke her out of her slumber. She groaned and ignored it while the phone kept blaring. Frustration crawled upon her as she winced at the tone! Why is the whole world against her beauty sleep? Couldn't she get a good night rest for once? She lazily pulled her hand out of the comforter and fished for the phone on her bedside table, turning to lie on her stomach.Finally after some struggling, she felt the object she was looking for and slowly brought it to her ear while accepting the call. Her eyes were still shut when she spoke, "The person you're trying to reach is currently enjoying her sleep. Please try again never!" With that she hung up and went back to her beautiful slumber.On the other side Lily was tired of trying to reach her sister again and again. Stupid girl is always sleeping, she thought. She got even more irritated when she hung up on her. "Come on idiot! I need your help," she hissed out to herself. She rung
Rose stepped into the club and was immediately met with horny teens smelling like rotten fish. This is one of the reasons why Rose doesn't like clubs. She eyed the whole place carefully. It was quite extravagant, she admitted. She looked around for a blonde she knew as her sister and found her sitting on one of the corner tables. With a smirk on her face, she made her way to the table."At your service your highness," she joked while signaling a waiter to bring a shot for her.Lily just eyed her sister from head to toe and almost choked on her drink when her eyes fell on the bunny slippers. She laughed while pointing at them, "Really Rose? That?"Rose looked at her feet to see what was wrong and noticed she didn't put on her shoes. She only shrugged as it really didn't matter. She plopped down on the chair opposite to Lily."What's got you so worked up now? Spill the beans," Rose sighed exasperatedly"I told you that they found out I was not at home." Lily replied. But Rose knew that w
Rose laughed at the waiter knowing how easy it was to fool him. She stood by a pillar with the beer mug in her hands, waiting for a certain group of boys. She eyed the beer warily and took a sip just to know how it actually tasted . She had never really had beer before because she didn't prefer strong drinks. Her nose immediately scrunched up. Yep! Definitely strong, she concluded and decided not to have it again. Why would someone have something so strong and nasty? She thought. The boys were now passing by a pillar, not aware of the surprise that was waiting for them. As soon as they reached the pillar, someone appeared out of nowhere and bumped into them. The brunette had spilled beer all over the big bully's jacket. As if once was not enough for the day, the poor boy thought. "What the hell dude?" He exclaimed."I'm so sorry. I didn't see you there," Rose said innocently and immediately reached for the jacket. "Let me fix this." She slipped the jacket only halfway down his arms a
Vincenzo was sitting in his office at the club, waiting for his brother to make his appearance when a certain blonde caught his attention. She had immediately caught everyone's attention as soon as she stepped foot in the club. Why wouldn't she? It wasn't a very hard task with the beauty she carried. But Vincenzo was feeling a little more curious about her. Maybe it was just attraction; he couldn't really wrap his head around that feeling. Just by one glance she had stirred something within him. He felt restless. He felt excited and wanted to be near her. Maybe it was because he hadn't gotten laid lately. But that was not it. He wanted her to notice him, but he knew she wouldn't. She seemed oblivious of any attention and continued making her way to one of the corner tables. She was furiously trying to call someone but had bad luck at it. He had a clearer view at the table she chose and was glad for her selection. He could now see her even clearly with her flawless skin, those silky bl
Vincenzo and Dante were impressed as they watched the girls speed down the road. They gave each other a knowing look. "Who were they?" Dante asked in a daze."I have never seen them here before," Vincenzo shrugged. He had the records of everyone who entered his club but he had never seen the two of them before. But he knew he was surely going to find the enticing blonde who captured his attention in no time. And then it would be easy to track down Dante's girl as well, as she seemed to be a friend of the blond. He remembered the real reason they were present at the club for."What was the news you wanted to share?" The question came out in a deeper voice."Oh yeah, you remember Derek?""The snake?" Vincenzo asked taking a sip of his wine. Dante nodded. Derek was a part of their gang when their father was the leader. They were close friends and Derek happened to be the third in command of their father. While his other best friend James was the right hand man. The trio was impossible to
Rose was having a peaceful sleep when Lily barged in her room wearing a silk night dress. "How can you still be sleeping after knowing what dad is doing?" Her voice exploded in the room. "What the hell did I ever do to you that you can never let me sleep peacefully girl?" Rose asked groggily, irritation lacing her voice as she looked at the time. Hell! it was only 9 in the morning. She could at least have slept for two more hours, she thought. "Dad has grounded us for three days for the stunt we pulled yesterday!" Lily screamed in Rose's ear. "Jesus! First of all we didn't pull the stunt, you did. Thus you are grounded not me. Secondly it doesn't bother me as I'm not the one who always want to go and party all the time. So it's your problem. Learn to deal with it! Now let me sleep." Rose declared stuffing her face under her fluffy pillow. It was true. Rose's perfect day would include just sitting at home doing absolutely nothing and enjoying takeouts! She was not the travelling or

"Ughh come on. Just when will you finalize the dress Lily? I'm freaking tired. Just get it done with already. I need my pretty sleep!" Rose complained as she pulled back into the comfort of the couch and continued examining Lily in the next dress she came out wearing from the changing room. Since the morning Lily had kept her busy with her wedding preparations as Vincenzo had not quite been a gentleman dropping the bomb of their wedding in less than a week. He said he didn't want to wait anymore and just wanted to see Lily as his wife. The boys had taken a break from the gang dealings and it really helped things go back to normal for the time. Although Vincenzo had taken care of all the preparations, Lily still wanted to get her dress done personally. And even if it was the only thing she had to take care of, she portrayed it as if she had tons of other things to deal with. Georgia had been excellent at helping her soon-to-be-daughter-in-law get everything on line for the wedding. But
Dante sighed as he ran his hand through his hair. Since the past week, there has been something unsettled in his chest. Yes, it had been a week since Lucas was killed and the threat was over. But he could not get over the feeling. The probability of what the fucker Lucas was about to tell him. Although he didn't get the chance to finish his sentence because Lily happened to be there at the most unexpected moment, it doesn't take a genius to guess what Lucas was going to say. He just couldn't believe those words. He didn’t want to. They couldn't be true. He trusted his brother. Then why, why couldn’t he just let it go? Something in his mind kept nagging him that Lucas wouldn't have said such a thing without any reason. There was something behind it. Was Vincenzo really someone who could be trusted? He heard a soft knock and ordered the person to come in. The door opened to reveal Rose standing in a knee-length dress looking beautiful as ever. His lips twitched into a small smile but Ro
"What the hell..." Rose gasped as Dante and she stepped into the room where Lucas had escaped to. The sight in front of them scared them to the core as they could only imagine why there were 6 bomb timers ticking. "8 minutes," Dante whispered, reading the numbers on the timer. "Tch Tch Tch, is the little boy scared?" Lucas mocked coming out of the dark while wiping his busted lip. Vincenzo had done quite a good number on him, but obviously he deserved way more than that. That man needed to be buried 6 feet under and that too quickly. Dante only laughed at him, "You wish," he spat at him. "There is no way you are escaping this place today you bastard." "I know," Lucas smiled arrogantly at him, "I know that very well," he spoke sending a disgusting glare at the couple. "But neither are you. I'll make sure none of you do!" Lucas screamed the last words. "We will see about that," Dante loaded his gun and pointed it at the man who was causing his blood to bubble in anger. That person
Vincenzo felt his blood boiling at the sight. He felt like killing the bastard at the exact moment. But then he wanted to give him a nice slow and painful death for all the chaos he had caused for them. On the other hand, Dante was worried. Just worried for Rose. Nothing should happen to her is all that mattered. He sure got really angry at the fact that she was there at such a crucial moment. But then he also had the slightest idea that it would have been her sister's doing. Rose once told him about how Lily always emotionally blackmails her into doing anything she wants. He really was just conflicted at the moment. He wanted to scream at Rose for listening to Lily. But at the same time, he just wanted her in his arms where he would be kissing the hell out of her. As a punishment, of course. He saw the dagger that was held close to the girls' necks, and started to dig in their skin. Lily stayed put. She had her eyes shut painfully tight. However, Ro
Rose sat back on the couch changing the TV channels while Lily continued chewing her lips, staring at her sister whose eyes were fixed on the television and she looked pretty calm. "How can you be so calm?" Lily exclaimed suddenly, breaking Rose's concentration on the show. Rose flinched at her sudden loud voice. "Jeez woman! What is wrong with you!?" She asked, irritated. "Me? What's wrong with me? What's wrong with you!? How are you so calm when your man's life is at stake? Why are you not doing anything?" Rose slightly blushed when Lily mentioned her "man" but got over it. She understood that Lily was just worrying about Vincenzo. But she knew the boys were capable of handling anything. After all, they weren't feared for nothing. "Lily chill. You know they are perfectly capable of handling everything themselves." "No! I think we should still go and help them! What if they need us?" Rose sighed at Lily's stupid demand. "Well, to start with, yes, they do need us but not to help
Footsteps echoed in the dank warehouse as the man continued strolling down the familiar place. The same warehouse that once belonged to the Connor family was now their opponent's base. The same place where he betrayed his own family. The same place where he put his father in danger. The same place where he used to enter as if he owned it was not theirs anymore. The memories flooded in one after the other and only made Vincenzo's hand clench with anger. Only if he was not greedy for power, things wouldn't have been the way they are. Walking through the familiar aisle, he kicked open the door of the main room of the warehouse. Nothing was heard except the loud thud. The place was pin drop silent. "You can show your fucking self now," he spat, trying to control his anger. Three claps echoed as soon as he spoke those words. "Well, well, well. If it wasn't my dearest enemy. Good to see you finally," Vincenzo saw the same man he met at the girl’s reunion party and felt nothing but hatred
Vincenzo squeezed his phone in his hands as he fumed in anger. ‘It will end where it all started,’ the message he received said. Dante entered his office, observing the hard expression on his face. "Everything alright?" He scrunched up his eyebrows. "We have a lot to discuss. Sit." Dante nodded, taking a place opposite to him. "What's the problem bro?" Vincenzo said nothing but tossed his phone at him. Dante arched his eyebrow at the message before the same expression marked his face as Vincenzo’s. "What is this about?" Dante gritted with a clenched jaw. "Where did this all begin?" He asked, having no clue about anything. But Vincenzo knew everything. Every small detail of what that one phrase meant. It will end where it started. The same warehouse that was his father's base. The same warehouse where they were attacked after he betrayed his family. The same warehouse where he tried killing that bastard, Derek, after finding out his reality, before he managed to escape. The same w
"Where are you taking me?" Lily asked for the umpteenth time as Vincenzo continued dragging her to don't know where. Plus, her eyes were blind folded, so she couldn't make out where she was except for the fact they were somewhere in the open, since she did feel some wet grass grazing her feet through her slippers. "Like I said, it's a surprise!" Vincenzo continued, guiding her with her hand in his, not giving away the surprise just yet. He wanted everything to be perfect. "Yeah sure! I mean who barges into someone's bedroom early in the morning, not letting them brush or change, and drags them out in the open in nothing but a night gown and some fuzzy slippers? Not to forget, keeping them blind folded!" Lily exclaimed, getting curious as to what it was that Vincenzo was hiding from her. "Just wait for a few seconds! Please!" Vincenzo spoke in a soft voice that was only supposed to be heard by her. "Fine!" She grumbled before continuing to be dragged to don't know where. But then sh
