[ANASTASIA'S POINT OF VIEW]

When I left the balcony, I didn't seek Enzo nor go to the dinner table. I went directly to Khione's room.

I strode into the bedroom; I found her beside her window, looking out while taking a whiff of her cigar penned between her fingers. I went to stand next to her.

"Sienna is here," I began.

She turned to face me, her green eyes not hiding the surprise in them. "Sienna?" she inquired. "How can you be certain she is here when you have never seen her before?"

"I saw her photo in Enzo's flat before. And Rue said it's her,”

Khione snorted. “Rue is stuffed with crap. She might be attempting to snag you by the shirt. She has the ability to make people act their worst.” She exhaled once more into her cigar.

I sighed, almost reaching out to grab the cigar from her finger to take a drag. "I would like to know what happened between them; Enzo and Sienna. Why is she such a touchy subject?"

“It’s a sensitive topic indeed.” She extinguished the cigar and threw it out t

    [ANASTASIA'S POINT OF VIEW]As soon as we entered our bedroom, I grabbed hold of his wrist. When he turned to face me, I stood on my toes and firmly pressed my lips against his. I hummed in the kiss and wrapped my arms around his neck, realizing I hadn't done this in a while, and I did not realize how much I craved it until he started kissing me back, his palms rising to cup my face. I moved my body closer to his, wanting his warmth and longing for more.I broke the kiss and left a trail of kisses on his neck. Enzo vibrated with laughter. I withdrew and stared up at him with a pout. “What?”His lips stretched in a smile that nearly turned me into a puddle. It was adorable and endearing. He stroked my cheek with his thumb. “Aren't you cute when you are eager?”I peered at him closely. At the dinner table earlier, he appeared tense and agitated; now, however, he appeared relaxed, charming, and more appetizing. My cheeks began to flush at the thought that had just suddenly crossed my mi

    [ANASTASIA’S POINT OF VIEW]The beach was more enjoyable than I had anticipated. Walking along the beach and discovering clams, cockles, mussels, oysters, and scallops was a new experience for me, though I avoided the water like the plague. I once went fishing with Enzo, and it was a memory I would like to keep forever, but as they say, all good things must come to an end.The Mezzesalmas were outside when I stepped into the kitchen to get a bottle of water, My throat was parched from the glaring sun outside.I popped open the freezer, reached for the first bottle of water I came across, and downed the entire thing down my throat. Then, from behind me, I heard a recognizable voice.“Aren't you a pretty little thing?”I was choking on my water and hacking up a lung at the unexpected voice. Then a hand was rubbing down my back. I recoiled, and when I lifted my head, I was struck by the blue eyes of Galileo. A smirk appeared at the corner of his lips as I took a step back.“Are you scare

    (ENZO'S POINT OF VIEW)I saw red as I stood in Father's room. My hands were clenched so tightly and my jaw was as hard as a rock that I could barely contain my rage.I looked over at Galileo, his face covered in bruises, and he was trying to support his broken arm, the same arm he used to pull the trigger, but it was not enough. The pain on his face wasn't enough; I wanted to afflict more. He deserved more. Almost losing control, Father walked into the room with long, angry strides. He approached us, his jaw clenched, and his blue eyes darting between Galileo and I."I thought it was just pulling guns at each other. Now you pull the trigger?!" His rage voice echoed throughout the room. Galileo rolled his eyes. "It was not anything major, Fa-.""Shut up, Galileo!" Father cut him off and took a step forward to stand in front of him. "Do you realize the implications of what you just did?"Galileo's jaw tightened. "I nearly killed your favorite adopted son, so I understand the implicati

    [ANASTASIA'S POINT OF VIEW]I was led into a room with poor lighting. I spun around in the room. It was an office. Four guards with glum expressions stood at each corner, and a man in a black suit with his back to me was seated behind the large table in front of me. I strained my neck to see his face, but a palm wrapped around my wrist, and I was sharply reeling my head to make out Rue's face in the dim lighting.“Don't touch me.” I mouthed, drawing my hand back, and she rolled her eyes."You are not allowed to get any closer," she equally mouthed, and I rolled my eyes. It wasn't the first time I encountered the man who wrote my bloody script. The one who pulled the strings and played the chess. Even if he didn't show his face to me, I already knew who he was.I murmur, "I know," in return.“Anastasia Martin. We meet again." The man behind the chair started without swiveling in his seat, and I didn't expect him to."I would rather go with Anastasia alone. The Martins are not my biolog

    (KHIONE’S POINT OF VIEW] The sound of the music, the roar of the crowd as they watched me move my body on the pole, the applause, and the futilely lustful looks were my only escape from my reality. The stage was my only escape from the burdens on my chest. I moved to the sensual music in the background, lost in the adrenaline rush, and for the first time in a long time, I did not want this night to end; however, it ended sooner than I had anticipated. “KHIONE!” Over the music, the sound of my name came loud and clear. It was like the music stopped when it didn't, as I stopped moving on the stage. My gaze was drawn to my little sister, who was standing in the midst of the drunken crowd, tears in her eyes, biting her lips to keep from crying. My eyes widened. “Mia.” What the fuck was she doing here, and how did she find me here? “Khione.” She called again, and the tears she had been holding back fell down her cheeks. And behind her were two security guards, each grabbing her a

    [KHIONE’S POINT OF VIEW]Mom was gone, and the twins had witnessed her suicide. She did not consider that if she was going to take her life, it would be best if her kids were not there, but she was cruel and did not care how those little girls would feel. But it wasnt surprising since she never cared.She was cruel, but life was even more so.I stood at the window of the room that was once mine before I moved out to the Mezzesalmas, a cigarette between my lips, staring into space and wondering why life was unscrupulous to me. I laughed at the thought. This was most likely karma for what I did to Giovanni. I was supposed to suffer my entire life in order to learn my lesson, but have not I already suffered enough? Have not I had my fill of humiliation? Another laugh escaped me, and I took a long drag on my cigar while running my hand through my hair."You know, laughing to oneself is a sign of mental illness." It was like he appeared out of thin air, and when I reeled my head back,

    [ANASATSIA’S POINT OF VIEW]Have you ever felt that you need to do something before everything goes completely south? That was what I felt when I approached Enzo.My plans, however, had a dual meaning. I stood in front of Enzo, he stared at me with an amused expression I had come to love. The longer I stared, the more I realized how flawless this man was, but they wanted to break him; they wanted that craziness to unleash, and I was sent to do it in the cruelest way.They felt Sienna breaking his heart wasn't enough. And this was going to be my ultimate step, and at the same time, this was going to be the last time I would stand this close and have him fully to myself.I wanted everything one last time."Is there something you need?" He inquired."You are always asking that. Is there something you need?" His blue eyes twinkled a little. "You can't give me what I need."Those words pang in my heart. "How can you be so certain?"A small smile stretched across his lips as he reached ou

    [ANASTASIA'S POINT OF VIEW]Botulinum toxin; one of the most lethal poisons known to man. Supposed to take effect between 12 and 24 hours. As much as I wanted a poison that killed instantly, this would do the trick.It wasn't like they were going to eat the food anyway.In my hand was a tiny bottle of Botulinum toxin, and in front of me was the meal prepared for the Mezzesalmas family on the dining table. A drop of this noxious bane would end their lives.I tsked as I stared at the food. Such a waste, but it had to be done.I waited to hear footsteps and someone approaching in my direction. For the first time, I wanted those guards on every corner, but they were nowhere to be found this time, and I did not need them anyway. I only needed one person to witness the scene. As if hearing my prayers, I was finally greeted by the footsteps of more than one person making their way towards the dining area. Perfect.I quickly turned back the food and shook my head at the terrible waste of it

    (KHIONE'S POINT OF VIEW)I locked my gaze on the pregnancy kit, which returned my gaze with two bold red lines.I was pregnant.I sighed and dropped my hands to my lap, making no attempt to rise from the toilet seat."Khione, Khione, Khione. "How can you let yourself get pregnant again?"The guilt of losing my first pregnancy was still swollen on my chest, and it had no intention of leaving anytime soon. and now, another baby was on its way."Khione, are you okay in there?"Giovanni's voice came from the other side of the bathroom door. When I finally stood up with the pregnancy test, my legs wobbled. I felt drained when I shouldn't be.I stepped out of the bathroom and into my bedroom, where Giovanni waited with a worried expression."Are you okay?" He inquired before his gaze was drawn to the pregnancy kit in my hand. His pupils dilated as they met mine. "You're preg-""I am afraid of having another child, Giovanni." I interrupted him before he could continue. "Wha

    (ENZO'S POINT OF VIEW)I tried to stop myself from pacing, but I couldn't, not when Anastasia's loud screams were coming from behind the door in front of me. She was calling for me; giving birth to our child, but I couldn't go in; I wasn't allowed to, and she had to bear all that pain alone.I despised the feeling of being useless and helpless.I was about to become a father. The thought both excited and terrified me. I knew nothing about being a Father.It had always been drugs, guns, and trying not to go insane. I never imagined bringing a child into my chaotic world, but this child was on its way. Would I make a good father?Damnit!"Did you know that the longest English word contains 189,819 letters?"I turned my head, glaring at Kai, who was leaning against the wall. He shrugged. "I was trying to cheer you up, but that'd be a badass word, isn't it? Fortunately, I dropped out of school." He chuckled."Be quiet." I snapped."You worry too much. It is not flattering on you. It tarn

    (ANASTASIA'S POINT OF VIEW)"We are here, Ma."The sound of the driver's voice made me turn my head and look out the window.We were in front of a dilapidated apartment building in a busy and active neighborhood. I cocked my head to the side as I observed kids running around and laughing heartily. There were a few men carrying objects and three tattooed men smoking outside the corner.I noticed two neighborhood stores right next to the building. I averted my eyes as I fixed them on the tall, old building. Would I really find my parents here?Max had better not mislead me. I told the driver to "wait here" before getting out of the car without thinking, and fastened the buttons on my coat to cover my growing stomach.Yes, I was four months pregnant, and despite my concerns, Enzo had been exhilarated about having a child.I felt like everyone was looking at me the moment I stepped out of the car, but I chose to ignore them as I heaved a sigh and entered the building.I

  • Ruined By The Mafia   098: "Can I Confirm Something First? Are You Mine Again?”

    (KHIONE'S POINT OF VIEW)A few days passed, and I'd avoided Giovanni like he was some plague and struck Charlie's side like glue; he even wanted me gone, but Giovanni seemed to have taken it as a hint that I'd chosen Charlie over him and decided to leave on his own.I remembered the tears in his eyes as he told me to be happy, and I wished I'd stopped him when he walked out of my home, but I was a coward. Even Charlie scolded me for it, but I was scared.I was afraid of giving in again. What if everything went wrong again? What if something happened to separate us again? I couldn't help but feel insecure. I sighed for the nth time that day, glancing at the door again and again, hoping Giovanni would appear with the smile that melted my heart and the smirk that created a pool of wetness between my legs, but I knew it was wishful thinking. I knew that no matter how many times I looked at the door, he would never appear; after all, it had been two weeks since he had given up and walked

    (KHIONE'S POINT OF VIEW)When I walked out of the school and into the parking lot, I was surprised to see Charlie and Giovanni talking with their backs to me.I paused, my mind telling me to turn and walk away before they noticed my presence, but another part of me told me to get closer, especially when I heard them say my name.I did not move any closer when their words became clear, and fortunately, they had not noticed me yet."Don’t you think you have been a nuisance lately? If I were Khione, I would have gotten rid of you." Charlie spoke.Giovanni scoffed. "Since you're not Khione, that's not your call, and I'm going to be around for as long as she wants me to be.""But she is not interested in you. Isn’t that self-evident? She is already in love with me, and your presence only adds to her pain from the past she wishes to forget. I believe Khione is being overly nice and is unable to say no when she clearly wants to." Charlie stuffed his hands into his pants pocket.I averted my

    (ANASTASIA'S POINT OF VIEW)I stared as the smirk on Godfather Gattani's face deliberately subsided and gushing from his mouth was blood gradually, he lowered to his knees before falling to the ground with his blood coupling around him.I jerked up my head, meeting the malignant eyes of Enzo as he clenched his gun so tightly I could see the veins on his wrist and forehead."Enzo," I called softly, snapping him out of it.He let the gun plunge from his hand and rushed over to me, cupping my face and for the first time, I was able to graze terror in his eyes and expression. "I wasn't fast enough, I'm so sorry, doll." His voice lurched.At that moment, I shirked I was punctured on the shoulder as the pain somehow seemed to cease. I cracked a full smile. "I'm fine, It's not that deep.""Fuck." He exhaled, seating his forehead on mine and I took the opportunity to inhale his alleviating scent. It was intoxicating. "My own death does not frighten me but yours? That's my greatest and deepest

    [ANASTASIA’S POINT OF VIEW]The most effective way to control a man is to make him believe that he was using you.Rue kidnapped me, knocked me out, and now I was tied to a pillar. She got me because I let her. She grinned at me as she stood in front of me, and I gave her the same vaporous look in return.“I can't wait to peel off your skin.” She winked at me, and I rolled my eyes. Her gaze fell to her watch. "Godfather Gattani will arrive in a few minutes; as soon as I receive the go-ahead, I will begin with that face of yours."I tsked, tilting my head and scanning her from head to toe before looking her in the eyes. "How does it feel to be a pawn, knowing you will eventually lose everything? I heard he asked you to get rid of Miranda; what makes you think you will not be next on his list when this is all over?" She reached out and grabbed my hair firmly, bringing her face closer to mine, her eyes red with rage. "You know nothing, so why don't you shut up before I kill you sooner th

    (KHIONE'S POINT OF VIEW)I thought Giovanni had gotten the hint and was gone for good, but I was dead wrong, and I wish I had been prepared when the idiot showed up at my place of work.Being invited to the principal's office, I thought I'd done something wrong, only to find Giovanni there. I paused, and my eyes turned into a glare."What are you doing here?" I exploded. Giovanni flashed me a grin. "Judging by your expression, I believe you know this man." The principal wore an unimpressed expression. "He insisted on not leaving till he saw you, and that has been like an hour ago; please get him out.""Yes, sir." I turned to Giovanni, grabbed his wrist, and yanked him to his feet. "Let's go."We left the office, and I didn't stop dragging him by the wrist till I found an empty classroom and shoved him in, shutting the door behind me before turning to him with a sharper glare. "What the fuck were you thinking? I could lose my bloody job!""I'm sorry, but I needed to see you." He respo
