"I don't get it?"Olivia said and blinked a few times, shifting her gaze to Pedro. Hannah scoffed and crossed her legs elegantly. Zane knew where this was coming from but chose to keep quietPedro on the other hand had a dark expression."It's simple Sacha… she claims to be part of us… why not let her go through the mafia trials and swear loyalty to us"Hannah said making her intentions known. She hated the expression on Livia's face. The woman thought she was part of the mafia when she wasn't"It's not needed… Hannah what's with you" Gabby said when Pedro kept quiet. Pedro called for an urge to meet. However, Hannah asked Olivia to excuse them because the matter didn't concern someone who wasn't part of the mafia"Yes exactly… I don't see why she has to do that when Sacha didn't suggest it"Ira chimed in and said glaring at Hannah. The matter had nothing to do with Olivia not being part of the mafia would"Why are you all answering… it's the boss I asked… I went through the trials despi
Ira watched as Olivia packed her clothes in a small duffel bag, she didn't know how to talk Olivia out of going to that hell hole. It was everything she hated, one went there and came back a different personOnly the strong survived"You don't have to prove anything to Hannah…she's bitter and provoking you," Ira said, she knew Hannah was threatened by Olivia's presence in Pedro's life. In the past, Hannah was Pedro's favorite. Unfortunately, that had changed since Olivia came into the picture"That's the main reason why I need to do this… if I keep hiding under Pedro's wings…all of you will think I'm not strong enough," Olivia remarked with heavy breaths and shoved more clothes in the bag, she took all her leggings and training gear since it was all about working out. "It's not worth it…Pedro can handle this…don't go"Ira tried, she came to know Olivia wasn't a bad person. She was an innocent girl who made bad choices"Being a mafia is all about being strong and capable. I need this i
"What do you mean she disappeared? Did you look for her at her place?" Luciano asked, slamming his hand on the table, he asked for one thing and that was for his PA to look for Livia. He hadn't heard from her for a while now. Due to his condition and the incident with Solange. "I went there personally, but sir I didn't find anyone other than the guards," the PA said, lowering his head, Luciano was unhappy. How did she just disappear without telling him? "Don't stop, keep an eye on that man I don't trust him… and do me a favor…withdraw any partnership we want to do with him," Luciano gave his orders, he was done sitting idle. He knew what he wanted and Livia Gonzalez was what he wanted. "Yes sir…will do as instructed," the PA said with a low bow and left the study room. Luciano leaned back in the chair, his head was a mess. How did Livia just disappear? He was having a hard time finding out about her background "Did you find out anything?" Luciano said immediately he made a call to
Pedro sat in one of the rooms above with his eyes fixed on the computer. The room was bright with a light penetrating from the open window. The walls have been painted cream. The bed was covered in white and gold linens, so were the pillows. The fluffy white carpet where he rested his feet. A glass of wine was placed on the side table near the black couch he was sitting on. From his change of expression, one would know he was having a good time. Soon the door opened and a tired-looking Zane walked in and slammed the door shut. “Hey, boss… didn't know you can…he-he, I just told the lady you already landed,” Zane said with a chuckle. He was clueless if Pedro would show up at the den. However, he didn't expect the man to show up. “And Luciano is busy looking for you… after the stunt, you pulled… I'm sure that Antonia will start thinking the evil Ramirez mafia child is alive,” Zane added and poured himself some strong whiskey. He was in the mood to drink something strong. Sitting on th
Sydney was done for the day, she was exhausted even more. So far she has done most of her work. Alfredo was busy.She had postponed most meetings Alfredo was supposed to attend. Being a PA was tiresome"I should take these to him," she said with a lazy yawn and got up from the chair and straightened her clothesShe was wearing light blue skinny jeans, a long-sleeved button-up tuck-in white shirt, and black heels. She took her phone and shoved it in her back pocketsHer hair was falling to her back in waves. She didn't wear much makeup. This was pointless however she didn't mind looking presentable.Leaving her office she proceeded down the passageway to Alfredo's office. It wasn't far from her office. It was good Alfredo gave her her own little office to do her job. Sydney knew it wasn't big as she dreamed of however she was happy to be working and earning money"Come in," she heard from inside when she knocked. With ease, Sydney pushed the door open, held the files against her chest,
“Livia, are you okay… did you get hurt?” Zane asked Olivia. She nearly collapsed when he caught her in his arms. Olivia's eyes closed and opened after a while. Everyone was staring at her in shock. Jordan was utterly confused by what she had done. The look on his face was priceless as he shifted his gaze from Olivia to the room. Hannah was expecting to find a dead Olivia, unfortunately, that wasn't it. Olivia was unscathed. “What did you do…how did… this is madness,” Luke muttered as he walked closer to Olivia and felt her heartbeat. She was alive, although in shock. “Did she just…” this time Quinn chimed in. It was impossible. The room was not ordinary, it was sophisticated that an outsider who just came in wouldn't know exactly what to do to get out alive. “Please give her space… I'll take her back to the room,” Zane said, and prepared to carry Olivia when an unexpected person emerged from the room. Hannah was unhappy when she saw Pedro. “Bring her,” Pedro muttered, reaching fo
Olivia was more than happy when morning approached, she thought she'd have a hard time falling asleep. Unfortunately, she slept just fine. It was another day, the first day she nailed it. The second, she was a little worried. By now she was aware Hannah would do everything to make her life a living nightmare…but not to worry, she was going to do this as if it were the last thing left to do. Olivia was later guided to the dining hall; she wasn't the only girl wanting to be a part of the mafia. “Wow,” she muttered when she entered the large hall and found all sorts of girls, seated in pairs and grounds…they looked strong and capable, all of them were busy chatting and eating. With a long sigh, she glanced around for any empty seats, unfortunately, all the tables were occupied except for the one farthest across the room. Only one girl was sitting there, “guess that's the one,” she muttered and made her way to the table. She already grabbed her tray of food. Mainly scrambled eggs with
Pedro arrived at the Garcia mansion, his men remained outside while he was ushered inside and guided to the living room"Mr Garcia will be down in a moment," the servant girl informed with a low bow and left the living roomPedro didn't even bother to sit down as scanned the room. The last time he stepped his feet on the Garcia property was when he was just a little boy..now he was a fully grown manPedro stood by the bookshelf, his eyes fixed on the portrait before him, the Garcias appeared to be an honest family Only he knew the blood stained on their hands. Recalling that dreadful night, Pedro's expression darkened..his hands clenched tightly into a fistHis eyes shone with anger at the sight of a woman who did more harm than good. The woman destroyed another woman all because of her jealousy. Antonia Garcia had always destroyed everyone whom she thought threatened her peacePedro knew sooner or later he would settle the score"You must be Pedro Ramirez?" a voice came from behind
**Four Years Later**"Mommy, mommy watch me fly!" A little girl's giggles erupted throughout the room. "Sweetie, stop it now!" A woman shouted from afar but the girl didn't stop giggling. "Madam, leave her…kids her age are like this," an elderly lady told the woman beside her who was busy decorating a cake. The woman was dressed in a halter-neck, sleeveless blue dress which hugged her voluptuous figure in the right places. She was nothing but a beauty to behold. Her smile was as charming and serene as the calm waters of the sea. Her long blonde hair cascaded to her in a wavy way."She can hurt herself…she's too much," it was none other than Olivia who said with a frown and continued decorating the cake."It's her fourth birthday… like every year you bake a cake for her…she's lucky to have a caring mother like you," the elderly who was none other than her daughter's nanny said. Her boss was a working class woman. She was always busy with her clients. But when it came to her daughter,
After that dreadful night, many lives were lost. Antonia was arrested for attempted murder. However, she later killed herself in prison after hearing about the death of her two lovely sons. Bianca went crazy after everything. She was admitted to the asylum to get better. “It's been 5 months Pedro…please come back,” Olivia whispered as she ran her hand over the concrete granite with Pedro's name engraved in it. Tears trickled down her face. The despair of not having the man she loved beside her. “I'm five months pregnant…don't you want to see our baby,” she added as her hand shifted to her belly. After all that, she went through. She and Pedro's child survived, but he didn't. She missed him a lot. It didn't feel real that the man she loved more than anything was no more. They didn't get to enjoy each other's company. “Why did you do this…why did you make me love you!” A yell escaped her trembling lips, everything seemed dark. Her life was without colors. Everything was back to norma
The rain stopped immediately as dawn approached. The sun rose at its full peak. The city which always seemed lively was like a dead jungle. No life, like a nightmare. Olivia was still on her knees by the edge of the cliff waiting for the man she loved to come back. Her clothes which had been drenched with both rain and blood had dried up. The police were running to and from retrieving dead bodies and putting them in the ambulance. Ira stood by Olivia, afraid of what to say to her. This was a sad moment for her. The fact that Pedro was no more pained, not just her. Both those who had followed him for years."She needs to come home," Jordan whispered to Ira, it was a shame they showed up when it was too late. But Pedro had ordered them to save Zane and Sydney. Although Zane was shot in the arm, he was recuperating in the hospital. "He has to be here…he isn't…I'll wait for him," she wasn't going to leave until she saw Pedro. Ira and Jordan exchanged glances and knew how painful it was
“You are naive…do you think I'll let this slut go?” Bruce yelled while his men held Luciano down from escaping. Olivia was unconscious and getting hoisted near the cliff while tied up.“You traitor…you killed your brother!” Luciano yelled and tried to get free,. Unfortunately, the men had injected him with something which made him helpless.“Everything…was planned by you…you deceived everyone,” he didn't know there was a devil far more heartless behind Everything. He betrayed Olivia's trust by pretending to love her, only to attempt to kill her and her family. All those years, he was made to believe Olivia's father was responsible for his father's cruel death.“I killed him… I made those inmates torture him…then I sent someone to finish him off” Bruce remarked sarcastically and kicked Luciano in the gut. Despite the pain, Luciano didn't dare show it. Flickering his eyes open, he tried moving toward where Olivia was tied up in midair, but he could. “I hate you…you ruined people's live
Nothing broke Olivia's heart more than seeing her loved ones dying before her eyes. Sydney was in agony, crying as she tried to make sense of what had happened. Alfredo was dead. Despite everything that happened, Olivia was aware of how Sydney felt about him. He was her first love. She still recalled how the two met, Olivia couldn't help but hug Sydney to comfort her."That's enough, don't blame yourself," Olivia whispered and caged Sydney in her arms. However, Sydney was uncontrollably weeping her heart out. Even Zane standing on the sidelines felt his heart ache. Alfredo wasn't a bad guy, he was just born into a family who caused others pain."He saved me…sobs…he…I killed him" Sydney cried her heart out Zane went on his knees and pried her off Olivia. He couldn't take it anymore. "And he doesn't want you to cry like this…pull yourself together," he whispered and planted a kiss on her cheek, with the rain pouring heavily, the scenery was something which broke Olivia's heart."We nee
"Agh! L-let.." Marcos tried to catch his breath but with each breath he felt a sharp pain in his chest. Pedro cradled the man in his arms trying by all means to stop the bleeding on his chest but he couldn't. Blood was oozing out like a fountain. "Stop talking…I'll have my men take you to the hospital," Pedro said knowing he would make sure Marcos was safe, unfortunately, Marcos let out a sarcastic laugh. "L-leave me…it's…it's no point…" even if Pedro managed to destroy the room and rescue him. Marcos knew he wouldn't last a day. He was dead, there was no saving him. "I didn't know, you were so weak," Pedro muttered with a frown and looked around for anyone. He knew his men would arrive. "Save…save my sister…that monster…he has her!" Marcos struggled to voice out the words but ended up coughing out blood. Pedro's brows knitted together. "She'll be fine…let's move," Pedro muttered and prepared to get up when Marcos held his hand. "Don't…I don't have much time…" he said and closed
“Fucking face it…there's no getting out of here!” Alfredo groaned in frustration as he tried to reach for the chains he was tied with, unfortunately with the way he was all tied up. It was impossible even to think.“Says a coward… I'm fucking getting out!” Zane groaned and tried to swing himself, so he could reach the wall but was tied up with chains upside down. It was a bad position. “Says a man who has done more harm than good,” Alfredo scoffed, having no idea why he was trapped with a mafia when he was supposed to be saving Sydney. “What about you, huh? Instead of protecting the woman you claimed to love…you fucking let your pathetic family harm her!” Zane spat out bitterly, his eyes filled with hatred, but Alfredo did care. Sydney has always been in love with him. He did all he could.“You know nothing about us… I'm the man she loves and will always love…she's in all this mess because of you, bloody mafias,” he stood by his words, the night he met Sydney, he fell in love with h
Corina's eyes rolled in ecstasy; she could feel her juices dripping down. Just the sight of Pedro's naked body had her drooling. Touching herself as she crawled on the bed."After tonight…there will be no denying me…my love for you," she whispered and ran her finger from his chest and stopped at his abs."Do you remember…the wild night we had…how dominant and barbaric you…used to be," she leaned down and ran her tongue on his abs. A smirk crept on her face as she watched him struggling. Of course, the drug she gave him rendered him useless….he couldn't move nor talk. He was completely overpowered and not in control."You've always been the one who set my soul on fire," she added and lay on her side. Her hair fell to the sides as she got a better view of Pedro. Scanning his perfectly sculpted body. He was the man, sexy and held power. Such traits he possessed. This was the kind of man she had always desired."My love…we are going to have fun," she muttered and reached her hand for Pe
Corina's eyes flashed with hatred upon hearing what Pedro had to say. After everything, he was insisting on being Olivia. “I love you Pedro…you mean the world to me…why do you insist on being with her!” Corina yelled and grabbed Pedro's shirt. She couldn't take it anymore. She was a beautiful woman, even better than Olivia, so why was he doing this?“Is this… Why you want to see me… I told you…the only woman I love is Olivia,” Pedro shoved her hands away and turned away. His feelings had changed over the past months. He wasn't like this, meeting Olivia, everything changed.“You are lying…wake up, Pedro …she's not the one for me… I'm stronger than her…we…we make a good couple,” Corina was irritated to know Pedro didn't want her. It was the middle of the night. All she wanted was to be with Pedro.“I thought you had something sensible to tell me…but I can see you are still mentally ill,” Pedro remarked, keeping Corina at arm's length. She called him saying she had an idea of the main m
