I woke up one morning feeling sharp pains in my lower abdomen. My piercing scream woke Luca up.

Hell, it would have woken anybody in the neighbouring houses up if not for the fact that the house was situated away from people.

It felt like sharp razor-like pains in my lower abdomen. I was not a religious person, but I found myself praying to whoever was listening to please protect my baby.

“Luca please,” I cried out. “Make it stop, please,” I screamed as I squeezed the skin of his hand in my palm.

“I'm sorry I'm hurting you,” I said between screams.

He looked down on his hand and back at me before shaking his head. “You’re the one hurting. Do whatever you need to feel better.”

Gabriel entered the room shortly after Luca said that. “Dr Martin said she can drive here now, but she also said it's better we bring your wife to her clinic in case it's a more serious issue than you assume.”

Luca let out a low growl at his words. He looked like he was going to yell at Gabriel for his words,

    A knock sounded at the door the following morning, making me groan loudly in irritation. Luca didn't sleep on the bed with me that morning.I made it pretty obvious that I didn't want him in bed by how I lay in the middle with my limbs sprawled out on the bed in an awkward fashion. Luckily, he took the hint and sat on the couch. When he tried to talk to me again, I simply turned to the other side, leaving him staring at my back. When I opened my eyes in the morning, he was gone.“Who is it?” I called out.“I'm really sorry, ma'am. Your friends are here again and they insist on coming to see you. I don't know what to do,” came Gabriel's voice.“Tell them I'm busy, and I can't see anyone now,” I yelled out from my cosy position on the bed.I heard shuffling of feet behind the door, but I could still tell that Gabriel was still there.“What again, Gabriel?”“They said they wouldn't leave unless you asked them out yourself,” he said.I kissed the top of my teeth as I stood up grudgingly,

    “And what job does your husband do that scares you so much?” Dr. Payne asked one afternoon during our sessions.My head snapped up so I could meet her gaze. “What are you talking about?”“You mentioned that you're scared of your child's life because of the nature of your husband's job,” she said with a slight frown. “Can't you remember that?”I racked my brain, but I couldn't remember saying anything like that. Shaking my head slowly, I spoke again. “I can't remember saying something like that.”“So I'm wrong then, that's not the case?” She asked, crossing one leg over the other in her usual fashion, then pushing her large framed glasses further up her nose. I fiddled with my wedding band on my finger, wondering what the best response to that question was. “No, you're not wrong,” I whispered.“So that means you're scared of getting hurt and endangering your child because of your husband's work. Has he put you in harm's way recently? Do you think that might be contributing to your r

    As you may have already guessed, Luca and I were back to our most stable phase. We were a lot warmer towards each other. It might have been the sex, who knows. As for the sex, we were having lots of it.“Glad to see you're in a better mood than the last time we saw you,” Elena said when she saw me.Luca had convinced me not to ruin a perfectly good friendship with my in-laws by being stubborn so he drove me to the house himself and said he wouldn't leave until he confirms that I and the girls were fine.I walked further into the house where Elena was with Sabrina and José. Great, Luca had this all planned out. How cunning.“I owe you girls a big apology, you too José. I shouldn't have treated you three in that manner. I have no idea what had come over me,Neither of them said anything for a while. They just stared at me. I shifted uncomfortably on my feet, secretly wishing there were rocks there so I could kick them.“I've been experiencing a couple of things that have been affectin

    My sleep schedule has been exceptionally fucked within the past few weeks. The nightmares had stopped, courtesy of my sessions with Dr Payne but now, I had doubts about my safety. That and sleepless nights because I couldn't find the right position to sleep in without feeling like I was crushing my baby's head.One night, I glared at the back of Luca's head for hours while he slept comfortably. He was the reason I was in that situation and there he was, sleeping like everyone was okay. I wanted to crush his head.Alice still didn't respond to my texts. I felt really bad about not being able to reach her at all. I couldn't even ask for help because nobody knew about her existence on my phone.“Nazlynn?” I heard someone call out from behind the door, followed by two successful rants on the surface.“Who is it?” I asked, waddling towards the door.“Mathias?” I asked, my voice portraying the shock I felt to see him there. “What's up?”The first answer that I had to my question was not e

    Luca's POVMy clothes crinkled as I leaned forward on the leather chair. Five pairs of eyes watched my every move, waiting for me to speak. I drummed my fingers against the polished mahogany. The air reeked of expensive cigars and tension.“With all due respect, Don Luca…” Emanno adjusted his silk tie. “...the Irish aren't going to wait forever for an answer. We have to know what we're saying before they get here.”I shot him a look that made him shrink back slightly into his seat. “And neither will I wait forever to be provided with better terms. Twenty per cent is insulting.”“They control the ports,” another one of the five men said, cutting in, his weathered face betraying nothing. “We need…”A sharp knock interrupted him. José burst in without waiting for a response, his face ashen. He crossed to the other side of the room where I was in three strides, bending to whisper in my ear.“My apologies,” I said on his behalf as he approached me.“Don Luca, it's about your wife. The cl

    The high, thin wail that pierced the air seemed to make everything freeze in place. It was like the earth had stopped rotating at that moment. Nazlynn collapsed back against the pillows with her chest heaving. Dr. Martin smiled, carefully placing a tiny, squirming bundle into Nazlynn's arms."Congratulations. It's a girl."Nazlynn's eyes overflowed with tears as she gazed down at our daughter that lay in her arms.“You did so good, baby,” I whispered into Nazlynn’s ear, kissing her temples. I brushed a trembling finger along the baby's flushed cheek, utterly transfixed. "She's... she's perfect," Nazlynn murmured, her voice thick with emotion.I nodded, unable to speak past the lump in my throat. In that moment, watching this tiny, miraculous life, I knew with absolute certainty that I would move heaven and earth to protect her. To protect them both.The nurse took the baby off Nazlynn’s arms, and I took the opportunity to rain kisses on my wife.“We did it, Luca. We brought a child

    Nazlynn’s POVMy eyes were heavy with exhaustion from having stayed up most of the night because Hailey was being a little fussy, and I couldn't leave her.I closed my eyes for just a millisecond before I was interrupted.“If it isn't my favourite niece!” Elena's voice rang through the nursery as she swept in with Sabrina in tow, arms already reaching out to pick Hailey up from her rocker.I watched from the couch as she scooped up my daughter, who immediately broke into a fit of delighted giggles.At four months old, Hailey's personality was already shining through. She was all smiles and had curious eyes, just like I did.“She's your only niece,” I said pointedly, standing up so I could give her a peck on the cheek.“Tomato, tomato.” Elena twirled around with Hailey, making airplane noises that made her squeal. “She has gotten so big! I have such clear memories of when she was barely bigger than a loaf of bread.”I laughed. “One would think you haven't seen her in weeks. You were

    It was a picture of me and my mother from ten years ago, when I was a lot younger. My mother's face had the word ‘liar’ written in red over her forehead. The picture was sent from a number that I couldn't recognize.“Babe?” Luca called out from behind me, making me snap out of the mini trance I was in. “What's wrong?”I quickly shoved the phone into my pocket and plastered a fake smile on my face. “Oh no it's nothing, Enzo was just checking in,” I said in an attempt to convince them.The conversation carried on as normal but I was no longer mentally present with them. My phone felt like a hot rock in my pockets. I wanted to fish it out and call whoever it is that's on the other side of the phone.“Why the hell would anyone do that?” I asked myself.“What?” Elena asked with a frown.I gasped. I hadn't realized I said it out loud.“You ladies just excuse me for one minute. I'll be right back,” I said before scurrying out and into the library.I dialed the number once I had shut the doo

    I looked from the man to Alice and back to the man. My face was still stinging from the impact of his hard palm on my cheek when I opened my mouth to speak. “What do you mean she's my sister? I'm pretty sure I would know if I had any other siblings for over twenty years that I have been alive,” my voice trailed off towards the end as it clicked in my head.Until a few weeks ago, I didn't know that the man I thought was my father was not. That meant I could have a whole line of siblings that I was unaware of.The thought that they would all be crazy like Alice crossed my mind, and I shivered. I couldn't believe that I had a sister or that she was the crazy lady with me all this while.“Do you know what started the feud between my clan and Luca's?” Santos asked, ignoring my question as he walked away from the pole and to a chair I had not noticed in all that time. My eyes followed his every movement until he sat on it and returned his gaze to my direction. I shook my head in response

    “Don Luca, we have a big problem,” Marco said as he walked up to me. “I can see that, what's happening?” I asked, looking around me.My men were scampering from one place to the other in the compound, so much that my presence went unnoticed. “There's a strange gas that was released in the house, it made a few people drop like flies. I'm not sure if they are just unconscious or it's something worse. We're having everyone evacuated before anything worse happens.”An alarm bell went off inside of my head. “Where are my wife and daughter?” I asked, making an attempt to go into the mansion.Marco sidestepped me. “Your wife wasn't in the house sir.”“And Hailey? Where is Hailey?” I demanded.“Mathias has her, Maria and Tracy stay at one of the safe houses alongside your sisters but I don't know which,” he responded.“Find out this instance and let me know.”“Sir, the less we know about their current location, the safer they are,” he argued. I took two angry steps closer to him, sizing hi

    “How is this….how are you…I don't understand,” I spluttered. It was either my brain had gone radio silent, or I was just slow like Alice had said because I could not make sense of the situation.She gave me a few seconds to try to process things, and when she saw that I wasn't able to, she spoke up. “Let me make it easier for you, I kidnapped you,” she said with a sinister smile that made me want to puke.“So you see,” she started, dropping the pair of glasses on the table and picking up the blade that was used to free her. “My mafia needed inside information on Luca's mafia, so I decided to go through you. It took days of my tech guy doing his tech thing for us to finally find a social media presence for you. Although it turned out you had just opened the account that day. You live a very sad life, if I may say,” she tutted.“Anyway. You weren't giving me the information I wanted, so I suggested the therapist thing. It wasn't at all difficult to rent a space, place a few members of

    Luca's POV“We've been driving for quite some time. I think we would have found her SUV if it were here to see.” Gabriel said, taking the words right out of my intrusive thoughts. I've been forcing myself to ignore the fact that my wife's car was clearly not in sight. “I'll just drive around this street one more time then,” I said, stepping on the gas to increase my speed. “She's not here, boss,” Gabriel said, and I only hummed in response but showed no sign that I had heard him.“She's not here!” He said, louder this time, causing me to step on the brake so hard that our bodies lurched forward in the car. I glared at him so hard until he cowered. “I'm sorry, boss. You were driving at a speed that was going to get us pulled over by the police.”Scoffing, I shook my head in disdain. I was irritated with myself, with the fact that I couldn't even protect my own wife. “I can't have a repeat of what happened a year ago, Gabriel. I really cannot,” I said, feeling my tough facade slipp

    Alice struggled against her restraints, gnashing her teeth at him. “Who are you, and what do you want with us?”The man's face came into view, and I frowned slightly. It was a boy actually, he didn't look a day over fifteen years old. His voice sounded a lot more mature, I would have guessed he was in his late twenties if I hadn't seen his face. “Please let her go. She has nothing to do with me, and she doesn't know anything,” I pleaded on my friend's behalf. Alice looked scared shitless, like she would piss her pants any time soon.“Way to go, Nazlynn. You meet your friend for the first time ever and get her kidnapped,” I said to myself mentally. I couldn't let them hurt her. Alice could already clearly see that she's missing something about my life.The boy just stood there and stared at me. “Do you know him or something?” Alice whispered to me.I shook my head, “I've never seen him before.”He stared at me for a long time without saying a word. His face was void of any facial exp

    She scrunched up her nose, and her eyebrows pulled together in a manner that screamed confusion. “You mentioned it when you told me about your nightmares some time ago,” she said.I nodded. “I think you should do what you think is best for your child. You know it's not just yourself that you have to take care of or look out for,” she said, giving me a look that my mother would give me when she was trying to make me see a point that I am intentionally blind to.We talked some more, and I told her everything about everything, going into more details than I did when I sent that long text message. For some odd reason, I felt really calm around her, like I could tell her anything at all. Which was surprising considering how much I was freaking out when I got here.I had come to meet with her to get some advice on what I should do and how I should do it, but here she was telling me that the decision was all mine to make. Just sitting down and talking to her did help me feel better, thou

    I agreed to meet up with Alice two days after she had sent that text. Coincidentally, we were in the same city, so it wouldn't be too much of a hassle. She said it was important we met up, and I was curious as to why.“I already fed her, but in case she gets whiny again, give her water in her bottle,” I said to Tracy, crouching down so I could give Hailey a big kiss.The only thing I hated more than being away from my baby was being away from my baby.“I'm going out,” I said to Luca when I saw him in the hallway. He was speaking to some of the members of our security team. He frowned, giving me a once over. “Where are you off to?” “I'm going to meet with someone,” I responded briefly, checking my reflection in the full-length mirror hanging on the wall. Luca dismissed the small gathering of men before turning his attention to me. “Who? You don't have any friends. You're not exactly the most social person,” Luca pointed out. I froze. He had a point. Considering everything that has

    Luca walked towards me in a predatory type of way. “Hi princess,” he greeted Hailey before taking her off of me. I stilled as he passed by me, keeping my eyes on Enzo at the other side of the room, who looked half as uncomfortable as I did. “Judging by the fact we've been married for almost two years, you should know that I know you better than yourself,” I heard Luca say from behind me before hearing the door shut and then the sound of a luck turning.I whipped around and was shocked to see an empty space behind me. “What just happened?” I asked Enzo, who was just staring at me.“Your husband just locked us in,” he stated simply.“Yes, I can see that. But why?” I asked as my panic level started rising. Enzo hopped off the chair he was sitting on and started walking towards me. “I asked him how I could get you to talk to me. He said you have a thing for eavesdropping on his conversations, so we decided to see if it'll work. We left the door open a bit, sprinkled your name into the

    You're really not going to talk to me at all?” I heard Enzo ask, making me sigh.I had come down the staircase the next morning only to almost bump into him at the bottom. I increased my pace so I could disappear from him as quickly as possible, but Enzo just wouldn't let me be.“I thought I made that clear enough, but apparently I didn't, seeing how you're currently trying to talk to me,” I replied with a fake smile.“Nazlynn,” he called out softly, taking a step in my direction.My eyes searched his. I could still see fragments of the little boy who had left for Atlanta years back, but I could also see something darker. The kind of darkness that you are bound to be exposed to while working with the mafia.I was one to talk, considering how I'm married to a mafia don who is the rival to my biological father who is also a mafia don.“I'm not ready for the conversation you're trying to have, Enzo.
