    "Hey, mum" I turned to look at my thirteen year old daughter as she sauntered into the kitchen, dressed in a pink dress and a bow tie on her hair. "Hey, sweetie" I said as I closed the cupboards.

"Dad isn't home yet" she said, leaning on the counter.

I shrugged.

"He'll be home soon. Hope you remember that we're heading to your grandparents' home for Thanksgiving dinner?" I said and she beamed.

"Nope, I haven't forgotten. Rick is being such a lazy boy. He wouldn't get ready for dinner" she frowned.

"I'm not being a lazy boy, Hayden. You're just being insensitive" Richardo, my eleven year old son said as he strolled into the kitchen wearing a pair of dark blue jeans.

"Mum! Richardo just called me insensitive!" Hayden exclaimed.

"Rick! That's not a nice thing to say to your elder sister!" I scolded.

He frowned, staring at the floor.

"Apologize to her" I said.

"But-"

"I said, apologize to her"

    Ellise was miserable. She'd broken up with her cheating boyfriend two and a half weeks ago and it still hurt. She wouldn't get out of her room and her queen sized bed seemed to have become her favorite place on Earth. Naturally, her bestfriend was worried about her and was desperately trying to bring her out of her shell. "For the third time, no! That's not happening" "Please, Ellie. I need you to come with me to Sandy's birthday party!" Anne, Ellise's best friend pouted, big blue eyes reflecting just how desperate she was.Ellise groaned, burying her face in her pillow."My parents won't let me leave this house. Not after what happened to Maddie" she mumbled, hoping that Anne wouldn't try to persuade her any further."I talked to your parents. They agreed"Ellise raised her head instantly, her eyes wide with both shock and disbelief."What?! You're lying!""Nope, I'm telling the truth""You've got to be kidding me, how the hell did you do that?!" "Well, it took some effort but it w

    Ellise groaned softly as she awoke from her slumber. She sat up in panic when she realized that she wasn't in her room. The room she was presently in was very unfamiliar too and this made her worried.Where am I? She thought.More panic set in when she recalled the previous night's events. She frowned slightly, confused as to why she wasn't bound or gagged. She could've sworn that she had been kidnapped the previous night. The mere memory of staring into those emerald eyes, had shivers shooting up her spine.Swallowing hard, she looked around, trying to figure out where she was. The room was spacious and well furnished. It looked like a royal chamber. "What the hell is going on? Am I dreaming?" She muttered.The knock on the door caught her attention and she sat up quickly, eyes wide with fear. The door finally opened and a beautiful, middle aged woman stepped in giving her a warm smile. "I see you're up.

  • Saved By The Mafia Boss   RESTART HIS HEART

    Alexander felt conflicted. He felt that he'd made a horrible mistake by listening to the slobber heads that he called his friends. He didn't want a girl in his life, not after loosing the first one he'd fallen in love with. He didn't think his heart could take any more heartbreaks. He shouldn't have brought her home, but it was a little too late now. She was so beautiful with her long Auburn hair in shinning waves down her back. Her dress had hugged her beautiful curves in such a perfect way that had made him want to kiss her senseless. He could vividly recall how her big brown eyes had filled up with tears and fear.He didn't want her to be afraid of him but still, he felt that it was the only way to prevent the both of them from falling for each other. He couldn't deny the fact that she reminded him of Liv, his exgirlfriend and this only made things a little harder than necessary. Ellise didn't know it yet. But, he was doing her a favor by keeping her in his home. It would be assu

    Ellise opened her eyes, her head throbbing painfully. Sitting up, she noticed that her cut was wrapped in bandage. She frowned, staring at it in confusion. She didn't remember dressing the cut. Could it have been Cecilia?She stood up, making a mental note to thank her later. She took a warm shower and got dressed in a yellow t-shirt and a pair of jeans trousers.She walked out of her room and headed to the kitchen to help Cecilia in making breakfast. Cecilia noticed her injury and frowned."What happened to you?" She asked.Ellise's brows were creased as she frowned, confused. How did Cecilia not know about the cut?Who must have dressed her injury if it wasn't her?Dmitri? Dominic? Mr Loides? Not a chance."I accidentally hurt myself with a piece of broken glass""Oh dear, does it hurt so bad?" She asked, giving her a concerned look."No, not so much"

    Alexandre wasn't pleased about the fact that Ellise had seen him in a vulnerable state and he started to avoid her. Despite how badly he had treated her, she'd tried to comfort him the best she could. He felt ashamed of himself. Ellise truly didn't deserve to be treated wrongly and he wished he could make things right. He really did. But, he was afraid that if he did that, he wouldn't be able to keep up his facade. Avoiding her was already proving to be a difficult task because he could literally see her everywhere. As soon as he closed his eyes to sleep, her image would float into his mind and his mind was always infiltrated by thoughts of her.His feelings for her was growing and while he admired her when she wasn't looking, these feelings were escalating.He was sure that Ellise hated him. He had been nothing more than a jerk to her. As much as he would admit t

    Ellise opened the door to her room and stepped in, grinning like a love struck teenager. Her gaze fell on the red dress which was lying on her bed alongside two small velvet boxes. Frowning, she picked up the dress, her jaw dropping when she saw how beautiful it was. She picked up the first box. It contained expensive looking diamond earrings and a golden necklace. She stared at them, wondering how expensive they were."Do you like it?"She yelped, turning around with a start. Xandre who was leaning on the door jamb gave her an apologetic smile."Gosh, you almost gave me a heart attack" Ellise said, giving him a small smile."I'm sorry. I didn't mean to startle you" he breathed. Her heart did a flip in her chest. He'd apologized twice in one day. This was certainly unexpected.She watched him as he approached her and she couldn't help but admire his graceful movements."So?""I love it.... but

    Sitting on a chair in his study, Alexandre monitored the base unit of his mafia, from his laptop. There was a knock on the door. "Come in" he said, not looking up from his laptop as he watched Dmitri, his consigliere who was having a meeting with a representative from a rival gang. "Hmm, so focused. I see" He looked up.Ellie was carrying a tray containing his breakfast as she approached him. He grinned, sitting up."So breakfast, huh?" He said"Yup, you don't want to pass out while working, do you?" She responded with a smile on her face.He returned the smile and watched her set down the tray."Oops" she muttered."What's wrong?" He asked, raising a brow."I-uh-Cecillia asked me to get your meds for you" she said."So?""I guess, I forgot. I'll go and get them""No, it's fine. I'll take them later" he replied, taking a sip of his black coffee."You aren't mad at me?" She asked and he f

    Thoughts of Ellise clouded Alexandre's mind as he sat in his study, legs propped up on his desk. To him, Ellise was so beautiful inside out and just maybe, it was the reason why he was so drawn to her. He loved everything about her.Her smile was breathtaking, her beautiful brown eyes were enchanting and she was everything he wanted in a woman. She was delicate but firm, wary but strong willed, the list could go on and on.His chain of thoughts was broken off the moment the door opened. He looked up and his breath hitched as he watched her walk in. She looked so adorable in her pink shorts and large t-shirt which belonged to Alexandre. Her long hair was in two french braids that made her brown eyes pop. She gave him a sweet smile, handing him a cup of caramel latte."Morning, handsome" she said, pressing an endearing kiss to his forehead. She seemed to have become r

    Ellise let out a sigh, leaning against the wall as she watched different people move around in a lively manner. The whole place was nicely decorated. Men and women of high class moved about with glasses of champagne in their hands.She sighted Valentino in the far corner of the hall. He didn't look happy despite the fact that a celebration was going on. Noelle was standing beside him with her head on his shoulder as she talking to him. Ellise watched him sigh and embrace her, his eyes slipping close. She felt a painful jolt in her heart watching them embrace. She could picture herself in Noelle's position with her Dre replacing Val. It was so hard to look at her husband's brothers and not break down. At the other end of the hall stood Xanthis, he looked just as gloomy as Valentino. Tasha had embraced him from behind, whispering something in his ear. Flashbacks of her doing the same to Dre appeared in her mind and she bit her lips trying to stop the tears. A strang

    Dre's knees buckled and Ellise went down with him, cradling his head in her arms."El-""Sh, save your strength" she said, tears filling her eyes.He shook his head, more blood pouring out from his mouth."I'm s-sorry. It isn't supposed to end like this" he rasped, tears filling his eyes."Stop saying that!" She cried, trying to stop the bleeding."Y-you don't understand... I don't think I c-can survive this" he wheezed.She was sobbing at this point.Xanthis hurried to Dre's side, his face paling at the sight of his brother.Valentino had dialled 911.Dre coughed again, more blood staining his lips and chin."B-but I want you to know that- none of this is your fault. I-I might never see my kids again b-but I want you to raise them like the good mother you are-"He gasped, his eyelids slipping close. "T-tell them that I love them" he croaked, his bloody hand weakly grasping he

    Ellie had a sinking feeling in her stomach as she watched Zack and his brother pull out guns. All she could think of was the possibility of loosing Dre tonight. She tried to take her mind of it but it wasn't working. Some other men walked into the room, fully armed. The fight had begun. She wasn't scared.She was purely terrified.She hugged her arms to herself as the cold air hit her skin. The thin hospital dress did nothing to warm her up. The temperature in the room had dropped considerably, she was shivering. Through the rising fog, she tried to find Dre to make sure that he was safe.All she could think of was his safety.She needed him alive.She needed him safe.She grimaced at the sounds of pained groans and moans coming from the room. She nearly gagged as the unmistakable metallic scent of blood hit her nostrils.The fog was clearing and she could see the number of bodies lying on the floor, unconscious.

    "We were wrong, Dre. We were so wrong. Look, Fletcher had three sons. They were fucking triplets! The names.... It was just to confuse us, they were three different people! Their supposed last names seemed different because they were only using their first names and middle names! There was no accident. Zack is Zack. He didn't have a face transplant. As I'm speaking to you right now, we've got two of them with some psycho men, trying to barge into the base. I don't know where the last one is but I have a bad feeling that something isn't right. Are you still at the hospital?" Xanthis asked through the phone."Yeah" Dre replied, distantly. He turned away from the exit, changing his mind completely. He needed to get back to Ellise."Go back to Ellie, mate. Things are pretty much unstable right now""I know, but you sure you guys are okay down there?" Dre asked, hurrying towards the ward."Yeah, for now. They are psychos for real. This is harder th

    'Okay, breathe Ellie.You can do this' Ellise thought as she stifled another scream. She'd woken up from a nap, only to find her sweatpants wet. The babies were coming and she was so scared. The contractions were increasing and it hurt so bad."Oh God, I can't even walk" she muttered, picking up her phone to call her husband. She bit her lower lip, her eyes glassy. When she dialled his number, he picked the call."Ellie?""Dre...oh thank God. I think the babies are coming" she croaked, sniffling weakly."Oh shit" Dre cursed under his breath. "It hurts, Dre" she whispered."Keep breathing, honey. I'll be right there in a few minutes. You can do this" he said and she nodded frantically, placing a hand on her stomach."Please, keep talking to me. I'm... scared" she whispered."I'm right here, baby. You're going to be a wonderful mother. You're going to make me a proud father. You're okay. You're doing great" he said.

    "Have I ever told you how beautiful your eyes are?" Val asked, gazing into Noelle's eyes. She smiled, giddily."No?""Then, I'm saying it now. Your eyes are stunning, Elle" he whispered.She blushed hard."Your eyes are beautiful too, Val" she said, brushing his hair out of his eyes. "But, yours are more beautiful" he winked. "I'm not having an argument with you" she pouted.He laughed."Well, we've been dating for months but I feel like I've known you far more than that. I- I just.... I don't deserve you, you know. With everything that-"His voice was shaky with emotion, her heart ached for him. She stroked the scarred side of his face. "No, don't say that. You deserve even more than me, Val. You're a great guy. You have a big heart and you're so sweet. I couldn't have asked for anything less. You're perfect" she said, caressing his face. Tears filled his eyes and a tear rolled down his left cheek.

    "I don't get it. How is this happening right now? How did I not recognize him? I dated him for nearly a year but..... Elvis.... This is giving me a headache" Ellise frowned, pacing back and forth as she rubbed her temple."Hey, hey. You have to calm down. Stress isn't good for the baby. I'm sure there must be an explanation for all of this. Why would your ex do something like this?" Alex said, sitting her down on the couch. She frowned, biting her lower lip."Why would he send Cornelia? Why would he send her to do his dirty job for him and why did she do it?" She said."It just doesn't make sense. Cornelia has been ranting about her wanting to avenge Gomez's death. What does it have to do with him?""I guess we're about to find out" Valentino said walking in with a file. Dre stood up, giving him a puzzled look."What's in there?" Ellise asked."Information. Everything you need to know about Zack Thompson is here"Dr

    Shocked to silence, Ellise stared at her husband who was showing her the dark part of him for the first time since she'd married him.He seemed to have become a different person entirely. He looked so relaxed and he had a very evil smirk on his face even while he was bleeding a lot. Ellise found it rather scary.Cornelia cried out in pain when another knife lodged itself on her right thigh."How does it feel? Tell me, do you like it? It's called pain. The pain you caused me can't be compared to this. I know you're insane but I'll punish you. I warned you, didn't I?" Dre said, plunging the blade of another knife into fire until it became red hot. "Please" Cornelia whimpered."What did you say?" He whispered, mockingly.She remained silent, tears rolling down her cheeks.Ellise almost felt sympathy for her but when she remembered what she'd done to her family, how she'd almost killed her husband, she felt no remorse, n
