*****Nikita POV*****

“Good morning, Ma’am” the men outside greet in unison while bowing their heads. I greet back and start sprinting. I notice that all ten of them are also sprinting behind me. I’m in my running gear while they are in all black, mafia-style attire with long coats and dark shades. Add big machine guns to that and them trying to keep up with my speed, the scene looks really ridiculous.

I stop abruptly, forcing them to do the same and bump into each other.

“What’s this?” I ask sharply. I have been running around our home estate for years, this is the first time they have decide to follow me.

“It’s Hunter’s orders, Ma’am,”one answers.

“Orders to do what?”

“We are to follow you everywhere from now on.”

I frown, giving each one of them my cold ‘don’t mess with me stare’. They shift uncomfortable, that was my intention. These big, capable, ruthless men have been around me all my life. I have learned to stand my ground and discovered that I can be pretty intimidating.

    *****Leo POV*****“Why can’t you freakin’ knock? There’s nothing hard about it!” I snap at Owen, who, as usual, is here to disturb my peaceful sleep. I wonder if all early morning people are like my cousin. Once he is awake, which is always too damn early, he feels the need to wake me up too. “Why can’t you freakin’ lock? There’s nothing hard there and why are you so mad? Didn’t get some last night?” Owen hits back with a huge grin. He really enjoys torturing me. “It’s eight o’clock in the the damn morning! What do you want, Owen?” I seriously doubt that a younger brother would have been more irritating than this cousin of mine. “It’s a great day. Look, your Juliet is even returning from her morning run,” he says while peeping at the spyglass. “Get the fuck off that screen, Owen,” I say sharply. I usually don’t mind Owen’s comments on any girl, even those I have banged, but not with her. There is this possessive feeling I can’t control when Niki is involved and Owen can sense it.

    *****Leo POV*****“Don’t you fuckin’ give up on me now. We did not kill Jake. We have made strides with Daniel. We will win, Owen. We just have to.” I don’t know if we will win when so many odds are against us, but I will die trying and I know that he will be by my side till the end. “What if two months passes and we don’t find the person who killed Jake?” Owen is usually calm but Nick is our boggy man. “Then we kill Nick first before he kills us.” I have thought really hard about this. If we can’t find the killer, we will strike before the two months is over. “And Niki?” Owen asks. I can tell that he is shocked that I already have a backup plan should we not find Jake’s killer. “We will negotiate with her and I hope she is reasonable, but if needs be, we will cancel her too.” I can feel my chest getting heavy as I say those words. It will be a shame, but kill or be killed is the mafia way of life that we have really tried to avoid for a long time. Owen nods his head and changes

    *****Nikita POV*****I chose a beige with a white overlay knee-length, cocktail dress that hugs me at all the right places, but not too revealing. My aim is to get laid to wipe Leo out of my mind not attract every Tom, Dick and Harry out there. Beige is a perfect contrast to my dark olive skin. It brings out my sharp black eyes too. I quickly dry my hair and tie it into a ponytail. I don’t waste time on it because it will be a mess when the deed is done anyway. Low heel beige pumps on my feet, I grab my bag and head towards the door. Shit! I forgot about the guards! There’s is no way in hell I am getting laid with them waiting outside. I check the coast a multiple times before sneaking into the basement. Very few, even amongst our men know about the Davi getaway passage on the basement of our home. It takes me over twenty minutes of walking through the dim lighted passage before the natural light comes through. I stop at the end of the passage while deciding if I should uncover one of

I scream in my head as my rival pestilent pulls the nearby chair and sits between Ethan and I. “I will be taking that if you don’t mind,” he says, before snatching my hands from Ethan’s like a child refusing to share a toy.I take quick deep breaths to suppress my brewing temper. The idiot is doing this on purpose. He managed to make me lose my temper in front of Ethan the last time, I won’t let him win again. “Get your hands off me,” I say softly while trying to pull my hands away from his. The insolent just smiles at me while tightening his grip on my hands. You would swear that I have just complemented him. I swallow my saliva and glance at Ethan. I know that this does not look good and it will definitely bruise his ego. “I can’t do that, Princess. My life depends on it. Let’s go,” he says with a huge s

    *****Nikita POV*****I am still glaring at Leo, who is looking tenderly at me. That’s when the waitress brings my and Ethan’s food. “Your food, Ma’am,” she says with a melodic voice while placing the food on the table. The reason BEAT still gets packed despite their pricey menu is because their chefs always deliver on their signature dishes. My taste buds are already celebrating with anticipation. The aroma and the presentation get me salivating and my stomach growling. Talk about priorities! I really have no business nursing my empty stomach when my name is circulating in the dark web. The waitress must have noticed that my date has changed and turns her eyes to Leo. “Good morning, Sir. Welcome to BEAT. What can I get you?” her voice is no longer melodic but seductive. I would know because I used a similar tone on Ethan just a few minutes ago. “Sharen, is it?” Leo asks while making eye contact with the waitress, who is now blushing and ready to drop her panties for him. “You kno

    *****Nikita POV***** Leo is flying through traffic and I can’t help but hold my breath when he stops at my estate gate. I see our drones approaching, flying low and hoovering above his car. I know that my presence in his car is the only reasons they have not dropped the bomb on it or opened fire. Our roles are now reversed. In a split second the car is surrounded by heavily armed guards. A rival leader showing up at your gate like this is regarded as an insult and declaration of war or impending attack. That’s why the extreme response. “Stand down!” I shout while quickly jumping off the car. Leo follows me out with his hands suspended in the air. He will be an idiot to remain inside with those drones still hovering above his car like that. I sigh with relief when all the men lower their weapons. They silently exchange looks. I can tell from their faces that they are surprised to see me coming out of our enemy’s car and even commanding them not to hurt him. My relief does not even las

    *****Leo POV*****I calmly walk away from the Davi estate as if my heart is not pounding. My hand shakes slightly when I get in and hammer my V6 turbocharged beast out of there. I give out a sigh of relief when the devil’s estate disappears from my rear view mirror and no drones are flying above me. My hand continues to shake as I ponder at how my life could have easily ended. I can’t believe that I chatted with death and lived to tell the tale. I am more relieved when I pull up at my driveway. I’m even glad to see my irritating cousin standing outside. “Where have you been?” Owen asks the moment I step out of the car and just like that, my gladness disappears. He’s been on the urge and even paranoid lately. I guess knowing that you might not live beyond two months can do that to one. I grin at him, knowing what his reaction will be to my response. “Our lives are in danger, you idiot. You can’t just disappear without a word,” he says with a strain on his voice.I sigh. I wish he co

    *****Leo POV*****The following day, at Palmland private airport.I glance at my watch and get out of the car. My eyes meet Owen’s, who is standing in front of our men, giving them heads up on what to expect. We intentionally left out all the fine details to this last moment in case one of them has gone rogue. They did not even know whom we were waiting for until now. Even if they somehow manage to pass the information now, we would be out of this place by the time the threat comes. The deafening sound of the three aircrafts emerging from different directions is heard at exactly 8 o’clock, just like Hunter related and I can’t help but be amazed. It takes a few minutes for the Davi coaches one, two and three to land. “How many coaches do they actually have?” Owen, who is now standing next to me shouts on my ear. “How would I know? Here comes their heiress, you can ask her,” I say before I zoom in on the figure approaching us. “Cometh thou Juliet, Romeo,” Owen says in our old engli

    *****Leo POV*****When more hours pass without a trace of Niki, I completely lose my sanity. “Hang in there. Niki is the strongest woman I know,” Owen says but I can’t believe anything until I see her. “She is my everything.”“I know and most importantly, Franco and Dion know it too.”“They are monsters, Owen, and Niki is pregnant.”“She will be fine. You have to believe it,” Owen insists and I nod my head. It’s only when Hunter gets intel about the murder of a man he and Nick once hired to build a secret grave Crego and the signals going off from the Crego grave that hope returns to me. We are an hour off but Niki is definitely still alive. Getting that assurance gets me pumped up again. My heart leaps when I see her. The love of my life. She weeps on my arms while I thank heavens for her safety. We all get a reminder of how crazy and mean Nick Davi was when Niki opens the vault. I know that he is dead, but I want to punch him really badly for speaking to my wife like that. We a

    *****Nikita POV*****I wake up in an unfamiliar place. The hazy image of Franco standing above me gets clearer and I sit up. “Morning sleepyhead,” Franco beams. There is really something wrong with this man. “Where am I?”“We are in the great Crego and the weather is wonderful!” he responds with so much excitement, you would swear we were related or friends. “You drugged me,” I accuse. The last thing I remember was arriving at the cemetery and someone putting a sack over my head. Crego is in another country away. He shrugs his shoulders. “You are not the cooperative type, my friend.”“What do you want, Franco?”He opens his hands. “Money, Niki, money and you have loads of it.”“I thought we were friends,” I accuse. “Of course we are.”“You kidnapped my son!” I exclaim, Anderson rising within me. “Come on now, Niki. The little guy was not harmed.”I shake my head and bite my tongue. Nick might not be physically harmed but being snatched by strange man will still scar him. “Why C

    *****Leo POV*****A week later, the country is still in chaos. People are fed up with the ruling party and begging ex president Marlone to lead them again. The politicians are throwing each other under the buss and literally begging us for forgiveness. I look at Niki. “Babe.”“You can’t be serious!” she exclaims in disbelief. “The country is burning, My Love. We can’t let it continue.”“They tried to kill us!”“I know. I think we made our point. Everyone now knows the truth. I don’t think they will ever mess with us again,”I explain. “I agree with Leo. It’s enough now,” Daniel says. “I know that you are angry, I would be too if someone attacked my family like that. Dad says people are angry and getting desperate. He can’t lead again, that took a lot from him the last time. Please, Niki. I want to get out of here and plan my wedding,” Lorraine pleads. She definitely inherited her father’s diplomatic ways. We all look at Niki, who thinks we are all too soft and weak. She is probable

    ******Nikita POV*****It does not take long for Hunter to return with Lorraine. As expected, he has taken extreme measures to ensure that they are not followed and Lorraine has nothing that can be used to track her here. It’s easy to see how devastated Lorraine is by Daniel’s death. I’m really curious to know her reasons for turning him down because it’s not lack of love.“Hi, Lorraine.” I keep my cold straight face. She runs to my arms and starts weeping. “I.. I.. loved him. I really did,” she chokes on her tears and I now feel bad for the lie I told. “My parents spent their lives and went through hell to unite this country,” she mumbles, a story we all know too well. “My siblings and I have always been under scrutiny. We learned very early on that anything we did could be used by the opposition against our parents,” she continues. I know that too. The whole country got to know when President Marlone’s children were mean to anyone at school. It’s been like that even when they we

    *****Leo POV*****A day later….“Hey everyone, Daniel’s father-in-law is on television,” Lucas shouts and we all congregate in front of the screen. Former president Marlone’s views matter a lot to us for different reasons. He still has a lot of followers and influence here but we now we have our eyes on his daughter for Daniel. “Former President Marlone, many consider eliminating the mafia the one thing you failed to accomplish during your presidency. What are your views on what’s going on now?”the journalist asks. Former President Marlone smiles and shakes his head. “My mandate was to eliminate the criminal organisation called the mafia. So, I, and my government appointed the best detectives in this country to only focus on that. We had the best undercover agents, who infiltrated the Davis, the Booi’s and Siko’s. The so called DBS or big players in the mafia world.”We all exchange looks, wondering which one of our previous men were undercover agents. “And?” the journalist asks ea

    *****Leo POV*****I get into the bathroom and find my wife puking over the toilet. This should be disgusting, right? Then why do I feel like kissing every part of her body?I crouch down next to her, gentle tag her hair back and pat her back. “You don’t have to stay,” she says before gagging and puking again. “There’s no place I would rather be, My Love.”She frowns at me. “Eew.”I can’t help but laugh at her reaction. “We are in this together, Babe,” I say with a lump on my throat. So much has happened between us, but we are still here and this baby is the stamp of our love. She gets up, flushes the toilet and rinses her mouth before responding to me. “You are very weird, Mr Booi.”I chuckle before whisking off her feet. “We are pregnant. Babe, we are really pregnant!”She wraps her arms around my neck and looks down at me in disbelief. “I told you this a few hours ago and you did not seem interested.”“I thought you were too smitten and speaking in tongues.”She rolls her eyes

    *****Leo POV*****We can see the bullets but thanks to the impenetrable walls, none get through. This wall in my books, still the most impressive invention of all times. “They are not in uniform and did not identify themselves as police,” Hunter says and my lethal wife is absolutely thrilled. “We have already won the case. We just have to live through this. On them boys,” Niki says and we gladly comply. The bastards clearly did not expect us to retaliate like this. I don’t really blame them. Guns, yes, but I wouldn’t expect any mafia to have bombs and drones. We are definitely winning this without even facing the fire. Owen and Lucas are even competing on who has taken down the most of our attackers and Daniel is actually not bad despite his complaints. We are still celebrating our victory when a missile comes out of nowhere. “Abort! Everyone to the basement!” Niki shouts and we all dash to the basement. The walls and the roof shake at the point of impact, before tumbling down. T

Sizzling hot! “Shooting you was an accident, why am I making up for it?”“Not telling me that it was an accident and trying to tear us apart, thats what you are making up for,” I say while wrapping my arms around her tiny waist. I plan on shamelessly riding this wave forever. She smiles and curves her sensual lips. I know that means she is about to fight me and I decide to change my strategy. “I will tell Nick that you shot me.”“That will definitely get Mrs defiance in line,” Owen responds. He’s himself again now that he knows Niki did not really pull the trigger. “You wouldn’t!” Niki cries and searches my eyes. I stand my ground, knowing that I have won. “Nick! Come to Papa, my boy!” I shout very loud and Nick shows up and runs towards us. That’s my boy!“Fine, I will make it up for you,” Ni

Is this how someone dies?My fingers are crossed when Owen approaches. I pray and hope that his first instinct is not to avenge me. I hope he knows that I would never forgive him if he killed my wife to avenge me. I sigh with relief when he sinks down and sobs instead. I know that he will be fine eventually, it’s Lucas I’m worried about. He is just staring into space. The boy has seen too much trauma in his lifetime. I should have insisted on keeping him away from the mafia despite his determination to stay. I hope Luca will forgive my failure in protecting his boy. Hey! If I am dead, this is not so bad. My volatile wife is still fuming, but she can’t stop herself from grieving for me. Madness is wishing you could reach out and embrace a woman who killed your, but I can’t move.
