Back at the club, Klaus was staring at Eva, who was still standing before him with the bounds on her. There was a look in her eyes that he had observed earlier, which made him frown deeply. He walked over to her and then snatched the tape out of her mouth, as well as the bind on her hands."Argh!!" Eva released a sigh, her shoulders hunching."Have something to say, sweetheart?" Klaus asked as he ran a hand along her face. She snatched her face away, but he grabbed it and held on to it tight. "You will look at me when I talk to you unless you want me to bury a bullet in your head, princess." He spat out.Eva glared at him, "I am not the one you need. What sort of foolish game is this? Do you even have any idea what you are bringing upon yourself by taking me hostage? My father will come for you, you moro... ugh..."Klaus' hand on her neck caught off the words from her mouth.Eva's hand reached up, her eyes wide, as she gasped for breath. He was choking her, with a furious glint in
"Get the fuck over here!" Angelo yelled at his driver. He was leaning on his car, which had bullet holes all over it, and he clutched at his right arm, which dripped with blood. His driver, on the other hand, was barely conscious, but there was no one around. They were suddenly attacked by unknown men, but Angelo wasn't a fool to not know who they were. But his driver was severely injured, and could hardly move an inch. He just kept groaning as he clutched at his leg, breathing heavily. He had received a call from Dominic earlier. But he was not able to give him their location as he was suddenly shot. But Dominic had Informed him of the current situation. The driver, Jovan, made to speak, but blood only spurted out of his mouth. He needed to inform the Boss that his girl was missing, as per Dominic's orders, but as he tried to get the words out, he only ended up coughing out blood. Angelo, on the other hand, was worried out of his head. He knew very well that something was wro
Chapter 58"What's that, Dominic?" Angelo suddenly asked as they drove. He was in a lot of pain, but it was not something new to him, due to his what he does.He had been curious. Something else was at the forefront of his mind, something he was also utterly confused about. He knew it couldn't be, but he also wanted to be sureDominic, who was sitting at the front, paused what he was doing, and stared at Angelo through the rearview, "What, Boss?"Angelo pursed his lips, and his brows creased, "That...." He then shook his head and asked instead, "What were you saying earlier? Is she..is she really... pregnant?"He didn't wanna believe it at first and had made him not talk about it. But it didn't wanna leave his mind ever since, and he really needed to know."Yes," Dominic replied curtly, "The doctor said so. He was informing me about it before I noticed she was missing.""Hmmm" Angelo rubbed a hand on his jaw, "And what the fuck was that she ate again!?""Pasta," Dominic shrugged, "It
Chapter 59IN THE STRIP CLUB, "Kneel," Klaus's commanding voice echoed through, sharp and swift.Eva's confused and furious, but she eventually knelt before him, clenching her fists in anger."Now, tell me, Princess. What were you talking about earlier?"They were almost at eye level now and as Eva stared at him, she suddenly and this great urge to smack him across the face.Ever so often, she would stare towards the entrance, hoping someone might burst in..perhaps her father's men.No way was she about to let Angelo have his way in here. Either to save him or to save his bitch.She took a deep breath and then said, "I was talking about Angela. You both had a thing in the past and...""Well, I had a thing with more than a dozen girls, Eva. Can you be more blunt and go straight to the fucking point!?"Eva held her composure, "and she took a deep breath, "Perhaps you did. But none of them actually bore you a child."Silence.It was like a pin dropped in the room. But it also seemed a b
CHAPTER 60Klaus's eyes were wide open in shock. Marino's gang! What the fuck!! He stood suddenly, fueled with sudden hate and anger. How dare they? That wasn't the agreement for fucks sake. They had once agreed to collaborate and get Angelo for what his girl did to their Boss, who had been in a coma ever since the fateful day. But not like this! His men, on hearing the words all bursted out through the doors, aiming straight to the garage. "Go after them right now and get her here. Bring her to me! Fuck!!!"His fists hit a nearby wall, but it did nothing to quench the fire rising in him.Eva, on the other hand, was rooted to the spot, utterly speechless and dumbfounded. This was not what she had planned, or how she had envisioned this to play out at all.Her fingers clenched in her fists, as she seethed inwardly. Why Were her plans failing her this way? As much as she would absolutely love for Elena to be taken by those who seemed revenge on her, she, Eva, needed to get the h
Chapter 61The sun was gradually setting as Dominic and Angelo drove through the city.While they drove, tension filled the air, when Dominic suddenly heard his cell phone beep.At the same time, Angelo's phone pinged, and he quickly reached out to it.It was a text message. As Dominic stared at his screen, his eyes widened and a furious glint appeared in them."The fuck!?" Angelo suddenly yelled out as he smashed his phone at the front of the car."How the hell did Mario's gang get to her already!?" He asked, his gaze on Dominic, as he ran a hand over his hair."Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!!" "What do we do now, Boss?" He asked, "It seems we are in a bind at the moment. Eva is most likely still with Klaus. While Elena would be in their Casino."Angelo breathed in deeply, as the weight of the situation kept dwelling on him.They still haven't gotten a location for Klaus yet, and heading to Mario's Casino was like a suicide mission.He would need a ton of his able-bodied guards, and that wasn't
CHAPTER 62“What the fuck do you mean by that?”Theodore asked as he rearranged himself uncomfortably on the seat.“Bring her already to me!” He barked at them and they hurriedly picked her up and brought her closer to him.He picked up her hand and it dropped back heavily, dangling through the air.“What did you do to her?" His eyes were blazing as he glared at them.“We did not…we…” They were stammering now making him more angry.How could they do this when he had plans to make her pay for what she had done?“She hasn't even begun to pay for what she did to our boss and you think death is the best option? Do you guys think at all? What the hell is this?”Theodore was angry now.He stood up from his seat and his men stepped away from him for fear of being hit.“We are sorry boss." “Of what use is your sorry when you have taken away the life that…”The door opened in between his banter and he paused and turned with blazing grey eyes to the door." What do you want?" If the guard wa
CHAPTER 63“Do as he says." Theo ordered his men and Dom sighed in relief knowing he had achieved something at least but to his dismay, Theo had seen his expression and became more concerned about his sincerity.His fingers drummed rhythmically on the table, as his eyes scanned those of Doms.“Wait!" He suddenly sky ordered his men, his eyes watching Dom closely." I need to see the drive first.” He said in finality and leaned into his seat making Dom to curse as he tried to free himself from the men that held him captive." Okay!” He finally succumbed.Dom brought the flas drive out and held it with two fingers." Are we good now?” Theo had his eyes flicking back and forth between Dom and the drive that he held tightly. Time was slipping away, and Theo’s mind was racing.Could that really be it?“So that’s it?” Theo leaned back, raising an eyebrow. “You’re handing over the drive? Just like that?”Dom’s gaze didn’t waver. “This drive has already caused enough trouble. Mario lost it,
Chapter 98 (Epilogue)The warehouse buzzed with activity as Angelo inspected the latest shipment of goods. His sharp eyes scanned the inventory, ensuring everything was accounted for.Though his business dealings required constant attention, his thoughts often wandered to Elena, who was now eight months pregnant. He had spent the past weeks ensuring everything was perfect for her and their baby.As he signed off on the documents handed to him by one of his men, his phone rang. It was his trusted right-hand man, Marco.“Boss,” Marco’s voice was urgent. “It’s Elena. She’s gone into labor. They’ve taken her to the hospital.”Angelo froze for a moment, his pen slipping from his fingers. His heart pounded in his chest. “I’m on my way,” he said quickly, already moving toward his car.The drive to the hospital felt like the longest journey of his life. Every red light and slow driver grated on his nerves. Angelo’s thoughts raced. He worried about Elena, about the baby, and whether he’d mak
Chapter 97The sun had just begun to rise, casting a warm, golden glow across the private villa. The soft sound of waves crashing against the shore could be heard from the open windows, filling the room with a serene melody.Elena stirred, her eyes fluttering open to find herself wrapped in Angelo’s arms. His grip was firm but gentle, his breathing steady against her neck.She turned slightly, watching him sleep. The sharp edges of his face softened in rest, and for the first time in a while, he looked entirely at peace. A faint smile tugged at her lips.“Watching me again, Mrs. Fabian?” Angelo’s voice was husky with sleep, and his eyes remained closed as he spoke.Elena chuckled softly. “I can’t help it. You’re too handsome when you’re not scowling at someone.”He opened one eye, his lips quirking into a smirk. “If I’d known marriage would make you so cheeky, I might have married you sooner.”She laughed, her cheeks warming. “Good morning, Mr. Fabian.”“Good morning,” he murmured, p
Chapter 96Dominic woke up to the soft hum of machines and the sterile scent of antiseptics filling his room. His condition was wore than any other person and so he had a lot of antiseptics being inserted into him.His body felt heavy, but his mind was alert. As he blinked into the harsh room light, he noticed a familiar figure sitting in the corner.Angelo!"You're finally awake," Angelo said, his tone even, though his sharp eyes betrayed his tension.Dominic attempted to sit up, wincing at the dull ache in his ribs. "How long was I out?" he croaked."Long enough," Angelo replied. He leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees. "You’ve caused a lot of trouble, Dominic."Dominic looked down, guilt weighing on him. He had known the risks of his decisions, but he hadn’t anticipated how far the fallout would spread. "I didn’t mean for things to go this way," he said.Angelo shook his head. "Intentions don’t erase actions." He stood up, towering over Dominic’s bed. "You need to leave
Chapter 95Angelo had also brought Eva back home. He carried her to one of the spare rooms and laid her gently on the bed.He didn’t know why he still bothered about her, maybe it was the remnants of the past they shared, or perhaps it was the exhaustion from the endless betrayals that seemed to have happened around him in just a short span of time.Whatever it was, he couldn’t bring himself to leave her at Klaus's domain, they would roast her alive and he did not want that for her.When he returned from his session with Klaus, he had decided to check on her. The house was quiet, the weight of the day pressing down on him as he climbed the stairs. He opened the door to her room and found her still asleep, her face soft and relaxed, like she didn’t have a care in the world. For a moment, he stood there, watching her. She looked so innocent in her sleep, and yet the chaos she had caused flashed in his mind.He pulled the nearest seat close to himself and sat beside the bed watching her
Chapter 94Angelo had finally succeeded in bringing both Elena and Dominic back home after the stressful ordeal with Klaus.He made sure they were both receiving treatment—Dominic for his injuries and Elena for her injuries as well as the trauma she had faced, but refused to take any treatment himself. He had too much work to do in the next two hours to rest. His mind was running on a dangerous mission, focusing on one thing only: Klaus.For the mean time, he settled for a quick first-aid treatment. His wounds were fresh, but he knew that if he didn’t take care of them, they would get infected. Angelo couldn't afford that right now. His body ached, but his mind was sharp and focused on the task at hand.Once he finished bandaging his wounds, Angelo grabbed his jacket, grabbed a cigarette from his pocket, and left the safe confines of his home. He drove in silence, the cool wind from the night blowing in through the window of his car. He had to make sure Klaus was still alive and then
Chapter 93Angelo was so disappointed in his men. His heart sank as he stared at the chaos his men had allowed to happen in his absence.He had left to save Dominic, only to return and find Klaus and Eva tearing everything apart.Before he could make sense of the situation, Klaus ambushed him, holding Elena hostage to force his surrender. She stood there, her face pale, her arms pinned behind her by one of Klaus's men. Angelo’s blood boiled at the sight, but he knew he couldn’t risk Elena’s life.“Angelo,” Klaus had said with a wicked grin, “be smart for once. Surrender, or you’ll watch her suffer.”Angelo had no choice as he raised his hands in defeat, he allowed Klaus’s men to drag him forward. The sharp blow to the back of his neck came faster than he could react.The world went black.*****Angelo’s mind wandered as he stirred back into consciousness. The last thing he remembered was Klaus’s men dragging him away, the sting of a blow to the back of his neck knocking him out cold.
Chapter 92Dominic, on the other hand, was planning how he would save both Elena and Angelo. He knew there was no time to waste, and so he brought all the men together, his men and Angelo's men and they began to plan how they will rescue them."I called us out here because we were in trouble. A rat has entered into our cabinet unnoticed and has begun eating into us. We have been blind not to notice it but we will not remain blind." He addressed them." Do we know where our boss is?" He asked and everywhere was silent." He is being held captive by Theo. A baby Mafia. Someone who acem into this business just a few years ago. And we allow him to walk over us with those baby feet of his?" He charged and all the men gasped in disbelief." Why did we let him go alone? Why didn't we follow boss? This is an insult!" One of the men said. " He gave strict orders that no one should follow him and did not leave any information on where he was headed." Another defended and they all murmured ohh
Chapter 91When Angelo got to Theo's territory in his car, he sat the guns on the window of the car with one hand and began shooting at any alive thing he saw while his other hand drove the car in a around the province.Theo's men were seen running for their lives as most were wounded and about thirty of them dead with just one gun. Theo knew what Angelo was capable of especially since it had to do with his fiancee and so he sent more men out after Dominic left and his precautions weren't taking for granted as he ended up killing thirty of them while the rest escaped heavily wounded.After the massive killing, Angelo came out of his car and stood infront of the massacre of dead bodies he had made in three minutes. He hung his roll of bullets around his body and held his two guns intact in both hands as he approached the gate.There was no one to stop him as he had killed almost all of them. He stepped into the gate and stood still looking at the huge story building and waiting for the
Chapter 90Klaus paced around the room angrily as he tried to process the information he had just heard.In the next minute, he picked up the drinking glass that Eva was using to drink wine and flung it across the room in anger while Eva jerked from the sudden collision of the glass with the wall.She just sat there on the couch, her head down as she cowered away from this angry version of him as she pulled on the roots of her hair in frustration.Why he was angry was what she did not understand. Elena was the enemy after all."I still don't understand why you are angry. I just..." She stopped talking when Klaus turned his blazing eyes in her direction."You don't understand? I thought we were working together, Eva? Why, then, will you take such a rash step and make such a decision without informing me first?" He queried with eyes blazed in anger." Why will you put a bomb in the car and kill her? She had use, great use, and potential in bringing out plans to success." Klaus told her
