I jerked my hand away from Mathias' instinctively, my heart racing. "Luca, I…"

But Luca wasn't listening. His gaze was fixed on Mathias, who had risen to his feet, hands raised placatingly.

"We were just talking," Mathias began, but Luca cut him off with a sharp gesture.

"Save it," he spat. "Both of you. Inside. Now."

As Luca turned on his heel, storming into the house with barely contained rage, I exchanged a confused look with Mathias. What had we done?

The air was heavy with tension as we entered into a room at the far end of the hallway. I saw a confused looking Jenna and Elena staring at our retreating form until the door slammed shut behind us with an unmistakable finality.

Luca paced like a caged animal, his jaw was clenched so tight, I thought he might lose a tooth.

When he finally spoke up, his tone was deceptively calm. "Mathias, you're my friend and that's the only reason why I'm not standing here with your blood covering my fist."

“Both of you, explain.”

    Luca's conversation with the girl ended after that. She refused to speak any further, so Luca told his men to contain her and wait for further instructions.For a moment, no one in the room moved. Then Luca was on his feet, barking orders. "Marco, I want extra security on all our operations, especially the docks. Salvatore, get me everything we have on the Russo’s recent movements. And someone, find out how the fuck they knew where I was and got close enough to make an attempt on my wife's life!"The room erupted into a flurry of activity. I sat frozen, unable to speak or move. Luca turned to me, running a hand through his hair, frustration evident in every line of his body.I noticed he didn't say anything to Mathias when he was talking to the others but the last thing I would have done would have been to ask."I need to deal with this," he said. "Go home and stay in the house. Don't go anywhere at all. Is that understood?""Luca," I started, finally finding my voice. "What's going o

    There was a deafening silence in the house as I waited for Jenna. I'm not sure if the silence came from my head or if the house was actually that quiet. A knock sounded at my door and Jenna slipped inside, her face was etched with worry. "Hey, is he home?" she asked.I shook my head. "No. What's happening out there, Jenna? The staff are whispering, the guards are clearly on high alert but no one will tell me anything."She sighed, pulling her chair closer to the bed and sinking into it. "It's bad, Nazlynn. Luca's territory has been completely breached, there's attacks on any member of his mafia in the streets. The Russos are making their move, and they're not being subtle about it."My stomach lurched. “Do you mean... Are people dying?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.Jenna's gaze was apologetic. "I wish I could say no. The attacks are so violent and it doesn't seem like they are stopping just yet."I pulled the comforter closer to myself, my head spinning. "I don't underst

    Gabriel came bustling through the kitchen door, with smoke coming in after him. My eyes widened at the sight behind him, the small living room had gone up in flames. “We need to move, now!” He said, shooting through the open door at anything since he couldn't see. He was bleeding from his stomach but it looked like just a flesh wound.In desperation, Jenna grabbed a chopping board, smashing it against the large window. Glass shattered, ushering in the cool night air."Go!" she urged, helping me climb out the window and onto the strange surface that was beneath it. I heard Gabriel groan loudly in pain just as my feet hit the metal grating. Jenna was right behind me, her breath was in ragged gasps as the smoke had filled her nostrils."Get down, quickly!" she ordered.The occupants of other apartments had all come out to see the cause of the commotion. It was clear that they didn't see this kind of commotion around here.Gabriel followed behind us shortly and soon enough, he had guide

    “We get inside, find a way to patch Gabriel up, and wait for Luca's signal that the coast is clear."I nodded, projecting a confidence I certainly didn't feel. "Okay. Let's do this."Getting Gabriel out of the car was a struggle. He tried to stifle his groans of pain, but by the time we had gotten to the front of the door, his face was ashen, sweat beading on his forehead."I'm fine," he insisted, though he leaned heavily on Jenna."Sure you are, tough guy," she muttered, adjusting her stance to accommodate him. "Nazlynn, can you get the door?"I hurried ahead, turning the handle. It was locked, of course it was. "Now what?"Gabriel fumbled in his pocket with his free hand, and produced a small device when he pulled his hand out. "Here," he said, chucking it at me. "Press it against the lock and hold it for a few seconds."I did as instructed, jumping slightly when the device let out a high-pitched whine. There was a click, and the door swung open. The handle was completely useless ap

    The echo of gunshots faded away, and I didn't stop running until I could no longer hear it. I stood frozen, my eyes fixated on a spot in the wall as I pictured Jenna's last look of pain.I must have looked crazy, panting by the road, my shirt covered in dust and blood. The sun had risen, and people were jogging past me in sporty clothes, each person turning their heads to give me a second glance.I wanted to scream. It was the only way I could get rid of the pressure that was building up inside of my chest. But I couldn't move. I couldn't breathe.A rough hand grabbed my arm, yanking me back to reality. Gabriel's face came into focus. His eyes were wild with urgency and, most importantly, shock. I knew he had seen Jenna."We have to go," he hissed, pulling me towards a narrow alley. "Now!"His wound had started bleeding again, and there was a nasty gash on his head, but he didn't mind either of them.My legs moved on their own, stumbling after him as we turned from one alley to the n

    A week after Jenna's death, Luca called me into the study. Sweat beaded on my forehead as I entered cautiously, unsure of what to expect.He sat behind the massive desk, he looked more disheveled than I ever thought I'd see him.“Sit," he said, gesturing to the chair across from him. I noticed the almost empty bottle of whiskey and a glass in front of him.I perched on the edge of the seat, already fidgeting, my hands clasped tightly in my lap."The man who killed Jenna. You saw his face," Luca said without preamble.It wasn't a question. I nodded, the gory memory of that night flashing through my mind.Luca pushed a stack of photographs towards me on the desk. "Look through these. Tell me if you recognize him."With shaking hands, I started to sift through the photos. Face after face blurred together until I got to the last one. Disappointment filled my insides as I shook my head. “Describe him.”I swallowed hard, forcing myself to remember that terrible night. "He was tall. He wor

    “It's better we just report this to the police, and let them handle it instead,” I said, in an attempt to convince Gabriel.He had knocked on my door a few minutes before to tell me that he and some others were going away with Luca for some days. I didn't need to ask too many questions to figure out what it was about. They wanted to find Viktor.“The police?” He asked with a scoff. “The police do not get themselves involved with things like this.”“Why not? It's the only way we can get justice for Jenna and the others,” I said, biting back my tears.Gabriel let out a dry laugh. “They don't give us justice in our world, we take it.”“Do you think Luca might want to talk to me?” I asked in a low voice, twisting my fingers nervously. Gabriel shook his head with uncertainty. “I don't know Nazlynn. I never know with the boss.”I gave him one last look before dashing out of my room and to Luca's room. The door was locked and I knew he was still in the compound since Gabriel was still aroun

    Luca's POV“Hold it down,” I barked out to Marco as I emptied the bowl of water over Viktor’s face that was covered with a tablecloth that had dried blood on it.I threw the bowl to the floor and pulled the cloth off. My fist collided with his face without giving him the room to catch his breath. The loud cracking sound of his bones filled the wide room.I shook my hand from the impact. The man coughed, splattering blood on the floor and on his shirt before looking up at me with a bloody grin spreading across his face.My eyes narrowed as I glared at Viktor, who was tied to the chair with both his hands behind his back.“What made you even think you could run from me?” I asked, crouching down to his level.“I didn't even try running. There's not much a pussy like you can do,” he said tauntingly.I kissed my teeth, nodding before swinging my fist to his face with a force that I didn't know I could muster. “You're the one tied to a chair, not me,” I said, wiping away the blood that ha

    I had just finished washing my hands and was back to where my men stood over Alice's body when I saw a ball of colours approaching me with speed from a distance. My face softened when the ball of colours got closer to me. Nazlynn threw herself into my arms, almost knocking us both off balance. I hugged her tight, breathing in her calming scent and presence. She ran her hand up and down the nape of my neck, and I involuntarily relaxed into it. She squeezed me tighter in her arms, like she was scared to let go.I attempted pulling away to see her face but she shook her head and held on firmly to me. Chuckling, I pulled her closer in my arms, placing a kiss into her hair. When she pulled away, she raked her eyes over my body, running her hand over it at the same time. “Are you hurt anywhere? Did you get… Oh my God, you're bleeding,” she said fearfully, as her hand touched a wet patch on my shirt.“No baby, hey, relax. It's water, I just washed my arms. I'm okay, I promise.”She nodded.

    Elena ducked just in time for Enzo to aim for Alice's hand. The bullet went through her flesh, making her drop the gun and release her hold on Elena. She had pulled the trigger as her gun clattered to the ground.Alice glared at me, then looked at the door behind her through the corner of her eyes. I fired a shot as she pushed back into the door and into the library. I heard her groan that indicated my bullet had hit her but not enough to take her down.“I need someone in the rooms beneath and above the library. The rest of you secure this building in case there's a way outside of it. Gabriel, Enzo, with me,” I instructed before following behind her with my gun raised.Gabriel and Enzo walked silently behind me. When we got in, all the lights were turned off, making the library extremely dark. “You don't peg me as the ready type Alice. You can't exactly hide in there forever,” I called out as I walked further into the library.I silently cursed whoever had the idea of making a home

    Enzo shot bullets after, but she was no longer in sight. “Go!” I barked at my men who were staring at the place where she stood in shock. “Don't kill her,” I said as they passed by me. “That's for me.”If anything, I was glad we left that floor and were going back to the ground.“I don't know who's sloppier, you or your men,” I heard her call out, cackling. “You have a lot of guts, talking when that would only help us find you faster,” I said, nodding to my men to follow the sound of her voice.“What makes you think that's not what I want?” She asked in a cunning tone. I halted my men, clenching my jaw.Her words were suggestive. The only thing I could think of was that she may be setting up a bomb inside, or she may have already done it within the few minutes she had earlier. She seems to like playing with explosives.She was behind a door, and we had the door surrounded from a safe distance. I knew my men were waiting for me to give a go ahead so they could march in, but everybod

    I pulled Hailey out of her crib and into my arms, cradling her shakily. My eyes darted from Alice’s face to the door and back.Alice took a step towards me, and I scooted back on the floor, ignoring the stab of pain as my skin dragged across the shards of glass. “What's wrong? Waiting for hubby, or should I say your prince charming to save the day again?” She let out a menacing laugh. “Lucky for me, it's currently an all girl’s house.”“Please don't hurt my baby, I beg you, Alice,” I pleaded just as Hailey started to cry from the noise she had heard. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the door to the bathroom open slightly, and Enzo peeked into the room.He gave me a small nod. Once I saw him raise his gun, I ducked, covering Hailey with my entire body. Alice was faster than him, but unfortunately, she managed to dodge the bullets that Enzo rained down on her until she ran out through the door and into the main house.“Fuck,” he swore loudly, rushing to my side.“Are you okay?

    Nazlynn’s POVAlice was certainly a girl who clearly didn't want to be found. Luca had his contacts pull some strings in the police department to put up a surveillance on her, but nothing has turned up so far. Nothing of essence was discovered at the house that Luca had found me in. Of course, his contacts in the police force had to cover up using some story about a robbery gone wrong. The bodies had already been taken care of by the time they arrived at the scene.I was up to speed at everything that was happening in no time. Elena and Mathias decided to have a small wedding but postponed it until after the whole Alice thing had been dealt with. Luca cleared things up with his father, and they were back to having their weird love-hate father-son thing. Whatever the hell that meant. I was about to convince Luca not to kill my so-called birth father. It's the least I could do since he saved my life.Our mansion was almost completely back on its feet, and we moved back in two days be

    “What do you mean you couldn't find her?” I asked shakily. Luca gave me a concerned look.“Luca, what do you mean by that?” I asked again, scooting towards the head of the bed and away from him.“Hey Nazlynn, calm down, baby. I'm right here, and I'm not going to let anyone hurt you, okay?” He said, reaching out to me.I smacked his hand away before it could come in contact with my skin. “No! No, no. She's going to kill me. She's going to kill us all. My baby. Where's my baby?” I asked hysterically. Luca shot up from his position on the chair and approached me carefully. I could see concern for me in his eyes.“Wh..where's Hailey?” I stammered as tears started streaming down my face. “Dr Martin!” Luca said, trying not to shout too loudly but making sure his voice was loud enough. He kept his eyes on me. He edged closer to me until I was cowered up by a corner of the bed. “Gabriel, get Dr. Martin now!” He yelled again.I grabbed his hand tightly, and I could feel my fingernails diggi

    Nazlynn’s POVLuca stared at me in shock for over a minute but didn't even give himself some time to answer me before standing up and yelling for Dr. Martin. I had expected to wake up to the pungent smell of a hospital room and the faint beeping of machines that had been working tirelessly to keep me alive but the room I was in looked like the average bedroom. Bright light seeped through the window, casting a glow over the space.As I struggled to sit up, the sharp pain shot through my whole body made me groan. Luca was back by my side in a flash. His gentle hand grasped my shoulder, easing me back onto the pillow.“Take it easy, chica bella. You'll rip your stitches,” he whispered softly. It had been so long since I heard his voice that I wanted to cry at the sound. It felt like music to my ears. Dr. Martin dashed in, greeting me with a smile before she began to do some further checks on me. It was extremely strange to hear someone tell you “welcome back to the living”. It should b

    “Baby, can you hear me?” I asked, tightening my grip on her hand so I wouldn't miss any motion.“Gabriel,” I bellowed, and he scrambled in. “Get Dr. Martin here now! Tell her my wife moved,” I said without looking back.I heard no movement after a few seconds, and when I turned, I was met with a wide-eyed Gabriel who was staring at me with shock.Moving closer to her on the bed, I spoke again. “If you can hear me, can you tap me with your finger again?” There was nothing but I stayed put. It was a very uncomfortable position for me, holding Hailey up with one arm while the other was stretched out to her mother, but I was way past the point of caring.It was like Hailey knew something had just happened. She twisted her neck to see what I was doing.“She's here,” Gabriel announced barely five minutes after he had left. I frowned. That was fast.“Hey Luca. I was already on my way here when he called me. What's going on?” Dr Martin said, clearing my confusion as she approached us on the

    “You found him?” I asked, shocked to hear it. “How?”Mathias gave me a look. “On my list of ten possible things you would say first, that certainly wasn't a part of it. Is there something else I should know, Luca?”I sighed in resignation. “He's her father Mathias, her birth father, and I think she should have a say in what we do with him,” I said truthfully. “Is he in our custody yet or….” I trailed off.“Not yet. We wanted to receive instructions from you first. I have guys watching and trailing his every move. He's been acting scared as fuck and I don't think it's just you he's afraid of,” he said.“Alice?” He nodded.“That girl must be a total nutcase. I can't help but wonder just what happened there. The only person who can tell us is well, not available,” I said looking at Nazlynn.“She's stronger than you give her credit for, I know she is. She'll pull through,” he said, giving me a pat on the back before standing up. He was almost at the door when he turned. “Come with me.”
