Sierra excused herself and quietly slipped into the bathroom, her heart pounding. She pulled out her phone and saw dozens of missed calls from Ryder. With a deep breath, she pressed the call button.

Ryder answered immediately, his voice furious. "Sierra! Where the heck have you been? I've been calling you non-stop!"

"I'm sorry, Ryder," Sierra said, trying to stay calm. "I've been with Dominic. I couldn't pick up."

Ryder's voice was still sharp, but he seemed to be calming down slightly. "This isn't a game, you idiot. I couldn’t give a rat’s tail what you are doing or who you are with. You pick up the dang phone when we call,"

Hunter's voice came through the background, trying to soothe Ryder. "Ryder, take it easy and stop blowing a fuse. We need her in a straight mind for the plan."

Ryder sent a death stare at Hunter, but his twin was used to it and completely ignored it. Ryder took a deep breath and continued, his voice more controlled. "You can finally put yourself to good use. It's

Vittorio stood at the center, his presence commanding and charismatic.“Alright, people, keep it up! We’re almost there!” Vittorio’s voice boomed above the noise, filled with the fervor of a man who knew victory was within reach.Marcus and Sergio watched the scene from a corner of the room. Sergio nudged Marcus, his expression serious. “Have you gained more intel on Nathan and Isla's little side quests?”Marcus nodded, his eyes scanning the room for any sign of the two. “No, those two have been careful these past few days, it has been hard keeping a tab on them. They’re not showing up to family meetings, and when they do, they’re distant.”Sergio gave Marcus a concerned look. “Dang it, Marcus, get your act together. We can’t afford any slip-ups, especially not now.”Marcus expression switches to a determi

"Thank you, Dominic. You clean up pretty well yourself."He chuckled, his eyes sparkling. "I try. It's a special night, after all."Sierra's smile faltered for a moment as she thought about the plan she was forced to set in motion. "Yes, it is."Dominic observed the difference in her expression and offered comfort by placing a reassuring hand on hers. "Hey, are you okay?"She rapidly nodded and squeezed his hand. "Yes, I just have a lot on my mind.""Well that can’t be good," he said, moving nearer. "What going on?"Sierra quickly scanned the room to ensure no one was eavesdropping. “It... the election. Tomorrow is a significant day. I guess I am feeling a bit anxious.Dominic smiled, his eyes fi

    Nathan stayed outside the private office building of Kazuya, as the late afternoon sun created elongated shadows on the ground. Feeling a combination of nerves and determination, his heart raced while he straightened his jacket, powering his determination.Kazuya sat at a large mahogany desk in the dimly lit office, rhythmically tapping his fingers on its glossy surface. Beside him, Anderson paced back and forth, his expression twisted with frustration."Kazuya," Anderson growled, "you promised me this election. You said your Yakuza connections would make sure I win. If I lose, it’s not just my career on the line. Your entire operation is at risk."Kazuya leaned back in his chair, his expression one of cool detachment. "Relax yourself, Anderson. We have everything under control. We have an insider. He will come through for us.”Anderson stopped pacing, glaring at Kazuya. "An insider? Who?"Kazuya’s lips curled into a knowing smile.

Serge stood at the front, a map of the polling station spread out before him."Alright, listen up," Serge said, his voice low but commanding. "We go in, plant the explosives, and get out quick.

They now have the interim mayor, Bryan Benson, eating out of their hands.

The Rinaldi family is isolated. It's time to finish this."Hunter, leaning against the table, nodded. "Yeah, with the loss of their two most prominent Capos. This is the perfect time. But, Dominic's no fool. We need to catch him off guard, make sure he's alone."Ryder's eyes gleamed with malevolent intent. "That's where Sierra comes in.

    The sun looked at her from the window in her bedroom, in a room painted a beautiful gold against a purple sky. A gleam in the eyes of Sierra, the sun caught the beauty for her only hours ago. She lay in bed reading her book, looking at the ceiling, remembering the day of the attack. The things she’d been told that night were like no other. She’d been betrayed, she was framed and lost. But there was a light that flickered in her darkness, below all the anger and confusion. He’d been honest, and he had taken his actions far too far, but they were because he loved me deeply and she couldn’t have had that things without him.There was a soft knock on the door that knocked and broke her dream. She looked inside, not sure if she was ready for him to come around to her. But the gentle knock of the door would not discourage him.“Come in,” she said, her voice barely a whisper.Dominic strolled in, his face twirling with anxiety and hope and holding a tray piled up with breakfast — coffee, pas

    The flames in the fireplace crackled merrily, sending flickers of light and shadow on the walls of Dominic's study. Usually a place of strategizing and tranquil contemplation, today it almost seemed to be filled with a tangible tension. Sierra looked at Dominic; the weight of her earlier confession sat upon the atmosphere. While comforted by forgiveness, she felt the pressure of something disconcerting — the deep impression that Dominic's perception of forgiveness had layers beyond what he let on. He swirled the amber liquid in his glass, eyes on the eddies created in it. He chose to remain absent verbally for a long time in order to let her absorb the weight of his wisdom and to chew on the ramifications of his acknowledgment. When he finally looked up, his gaze pierced through her own. "There's another thing you ought to know," he said slowly and methodically. Sierra's heart stuttered. "What?" she asked in little more than a whisper. "This," he said after a long sip of his drink

    The moon cast long, skeletal shadows across the manicured lawns of the Rinaldi estate, mirroring the disquiet that gnawed at Sierra's soul. The recent peace, the tentative steps towards normalcy, felt like a fragile illusion, threatening to shatter at any moment. She stood on the balcony of her room, the cool night air doing little to quell the feverish turmoil within her.She had tried to bury it, to ignore the insidious whispers of her conscience, but the guilt was relentless, a constant companion that haunted her waking hours and invaded her dreams. The truth was a festering wound, and she knew she could no longer keep it hidden.Dominic found her there, his presence a silent question in the darkness. He leaned against the railing beside her, his gaze fixed on the distant horizon."You're quiet tonight," he observed, his voice low and gentle. "Something on your mind?"Sierra flinched, her heart pounding in her chest. This was it. The moment of truth. She took a deep breath, steelin

    The sun streamed through the windows of the Rinaldi estate, casting a golden glow on the newly repaired walls. The scars of the Morgan ambush were still visible, a stark reminder of the violence that had recently engulfed their lives, but a sense of cautious optimism had begun to permeate the air. With Sergio’s treachery exposed and his life extinguished, and the lingering threat of the Yakuza quelled, the Rinaldi family could finally begin to heal.Dominic stood on the terrace, overlooking the sprawling gardens, his gaze distant. The weight of leadership, the constant pressure to protect his family, had etched lines of weariness onto his face. But there was also a newfound lightness in his eyes, a sense of peace he hadn't felt in years.Sierra approached him, her footsteps soft on the stone tiles. She placed a gentle hand on his arm, her touch sending a warm current through him."What are you thinking about?" she asked, her voice soft and melodic.Dominic turned to her, a faint smile

    The gates of the Rinaldi estate loomed, iron teeth barring Sergio from the world he once considered his own. Disgraced, stripped of his power and banished from the family he’d betrayed, he stood on the precipice of an uncertain future. His wives, their faces etched with a mixture of fear and resentment, huddled behind him, their once-lavish wardrobes now appearing gaudy and out of place against the bleak landscape.He spat on the ground, a gesture of defiance that felt pathetically inadequate against the crushing weight of his downfall. "This isn't over," he muttered, his voice laced with venom. "Dominic may think he's won, but I'll be back. I'll reclaim what's rightfully mine. The Donship will be mine again."Isabella, his most ambitious wife, stepped forward, her eyes gleaming with a dangerous spark. "How, Sergio? You have nothing. No power, no resources, no allies.""I have my wits," Sergio sneered, his hand clenching into a fist. "And I have a few… loose ends to tie up. Dominic th

    The air in Dominic's study was thick with unspoken accusations, a silent battleground of suspicion and simmering resentment. The opulent room, usually a sanctuary of strategic planning, felt like a gilded cage, trapping Sergio in its suffocating grandeur. He fidgeted, his silk shirt clinging uncomfortably to his skin, the weight of his impending confession pressing down on him like a physical burden.Dominic sat behind his mahogany desk, his face an impassive mask. The only indication of the storm raging within him was the tight clench of his jaw and the icy glint in his eyes. He hadn't uttered a word since summoning Sergio, letting the silence amplify the gravity of the situation.Finally, Sergio could bear it no longer. He shifted his weight, clearing his throat, the sound echoing unnaturally loud in the tense atmosphere."Dominic," he began, his voice a strained whisper, "I… I know why you've called me here."Dominic remained silent, his gaze unwavering, urging Sergio on with its s

    The sirens wailed, a mournful cry echoing through the ravaged Rinaldi estate. The immediate threat had been neutralized, the Morgan attackers lying lifeless amidst the opulent ruins. But the air remained thick with tension, the weight of betrayal pressing down on everyone. Dominic, his face a thundercloud, oversaw the cleanup, barking orders with a controlled fury that sent shivers down the spines of even his most loyal men.He needed to find Charlotte.He stalked through the grounds, his eyes scanning the shadows, his hand never straying far from the gun holstered at his hip. He had to face her, to understand how she could have sunk so low, how she could have so callously endangered the people he loved.Suddenly, a shout pierced the air. "Don Dominic! We've found her!"Dominic's heart leaped into his throat. He followed the sound of the voice, his pace quickening, his anticipation building with each step.He found her near the back gate, attempting to slip away unnoticed. She was dis

    The silence was deceptive, a fragile veneer stretched over the simmering tension that had gripped the Rinaldi estate since Charlotte's expulsion. Dominic had left that morning, a grim set to his jaw, to handle pressing matters concerning the family's business – a power play in Sicily that couldn't be ignored. He'd entrusted Luca with the estate's security, a decision Sierra hoped wouldn't be his undoing.She stood by the window in the library, a book open in her hands, but her eyes weren't focused on the page. She felt it in her bones – something was coming. The air was thick with foreboding, a silent scream building in her chest.Sarai bustled in, her usual cheerful demeanor replaced with a nervous energy. "Sierra, darling, have you seen Luca? I can't find him anywhere, and the guards seem… distracted."Before Sierra could answer, a bloodcurdling scream pierced the air, followed by the unmistakable sound of gunfire."What was that?" Sarai gasped, her eyes widening with terror."Troub

    The sterile scent of the hospital room hung heavy in the air, a constant reminder of the precarious situation. Dominic sat vigil by Charlotte's bedside, his face etched with worry. She was sleeping fitfully, hooked up to monitors, the rhythmic beeping a constant counterpoint to the anxieties swirling in his mind.Sierra watched him from the doorway, her heart aching. She knew she had to tell him the truth about Charlotte, but the timing always seemed wrong. Every time she tried, something would happen – a crisis, an interruption, or Charlotte's expertly timed displays of vulnerability.Enzo materialized beside her, his expression grim. "Don Dominic," he murmured, his voice low, "I need to speak with you. It's urgent."Dominic looked up, his brow furrowed. "What is it, Enzo? Can't it wait?
