Tyler's POV
My fingers moved round the tip of the coffee cup as my mind went off to different places.
I was currently in a nearby coffee shop, called coffee with Vino. I loved their coffee here, it was strong and it tasted really good.
I was actually waiting for detective Davy Jones, I called him earlier today, asking him to meet up in this coffee shop, just like old times.
I wasn't able to go to the hospital to see my mom and Jullie, due to the fact that I knew Alessandro's men were following me, they wanted to confirm if I really had close contact with my family.
I have never been so confused in my entire life, I wanted to go see Jullie, but I couldn't, there was no one to tell my problems to, no one to give me advice... I had no one.
Sometimes I just wondered how my life woul
10Aubrey's pov"Your ex boyfriend is a psychopath!" Drex remarked.I laughed, as I settled on his couch, watching the news, well it turns out that Tyler was dropping bodies each day, he's killing without reason... All because of his stolen parcel, which of course, I'm responsible for."Don't mind him," I said. "He is just throwing tantrums, he'll stop soon enough.""If that's tantrums, I don't want to know what he's like, when he's actually angry...It's been two days, still, he's killing people like he created them? What the fuck." Drexel raised his brows in amusement.I watched the news, fifteen bodies now, I can't say I wasn't worried, I am, if Tyler continues like this, he would end the lives of everyone in Vino, without noticing.So, my first plan had taken place already, I s
11Aubrey's povThe slight ticking sound of a clock resounded in my ears as I began to gain consciousness, my head felt light and my eye lids felt too heavy to lift.But I tried my absolute best to lift them open.My eyes fluttered open slowly, there was no need for it to adjust to whatsoever bright light that was supposed to meet my eyes, cause there wasn't. The light in the room was perfect for me to open my eyes.When I did, I knew exactly where I was, the very familiar dark walls and the big chandelier hanging from the very dark ceiling... The texture of the mattress underneath my body was exactly the same as the one I spent most of my nights on, before I went to prison.The silky dark sheets around me.I tried to move my hands, but I couldn't, well turns out that my hands wer
12Tyler's pov"Okay, so spill."Aubrey's gray eyes burnt through the side of my face as I drove to the vino hospital.What do I say? What do I tell her? That my sister has decided to end her life? Or that I was the stupid brother who refused to see her just because of some mafia crap.Even now, I decided not to think of the consequence of this visit, I just followed my heart, Jullie's life was all that mattered right now... I'd think of a way to protect her from Alessandro's wrath later."Tyler."At least, with Gray by my side, I'd think of something faster, I knew kidnapping her was the only way to get her to talk to me, I knew it was the only way to get her to listen to me."Bresfort?! Hello...Ooo"
13Aubrey's pov"Hi... I'm Aubrey Chandler. Tyler's- um- friend."My own voice sounded so different, and I knew why, the emotional exchange between Tyler and his mom was so strong and it actually made me realize how much I missed my own mom.Tyler's face fell with disappointment when I mentioned the friend word. Wait, what did he expect me to say, acquaintance? Sex slave, cook? Our relationship doesn't have a definition and I'm afraid to say that it never would.But I actually have to admit, today in that car, I realized how much Tyler loved his family, even though he was too butt headed to show it, it was written all over his face that he was worried sick about Jullie, although I didn't know her, but I was also worried."Oh, Tyler didn't mention anything like this over the phone, but we all know he's Tyler, he's foolish like that." His mom said, I tried so hard to withhold a smile.
14Tyler's povAnger, that was all I could see, feel, hear and breathe."Here you go." My mom handed me my favorite coffee, the one that only her could make.We got back from the hospital about an hour ago and I still couldn't phantom the fact that it was all a prank, that they fooled me into coming here! All they wanted was to see me and to distract me from my current mission! What were they thinking?Didn't they know that this would bring them trouble? That this would make this worse for me and for them?With the parcel missing, any Mafia could cook up a story in their foolish heads that they have it? Also my throne was on the line, they could get to me by using any one of my family as leverage against me.What the hell were they thinking?"Do you think you can buy me over by giving me some stupid coffee?" I glared at my mom as I stood in the very homely fam
15Aubrey's povPlacing me gently on his bed,His bright green eyes studied my face, like he was looking for some hidden answers to questions dancing in his brain."What?" I asked him."It's nothing- I just- I don't just want to 50 shades of grey you," He smiled. "I want to make love to you, the right way."I scrunched my brows. "I don't care how you do it Tyler, just do it."Within seconds, his lips met mine, he moved his lips in a professional way, making my insides go very warm, making my heart jam so hard in my ribcage, I felt the rush of pleasure.Aubrey, he's not even using tongue yet?My hands found its way to his hair, I pulled him closer with a small push, begging him silently to deepen his delicious kisses.And just like a fulfillment to my wishes, he started his profe
16Tyler's povI turned uncomfortably in bed, not wanting to get up, the memories of last night flooded my brains and I reached out to touch Gray, only to find an empty space?Wait, empty space?!I jerked up immediately, and looked around, Aubrey was gone, her shoes, her dress, there was no trace of Aubrey.Why did she leave?I sighed and lay back in bed for some minutes, thinking of reasons why Aubrey would leave without asking for permission.OK fine, I kidnapped her, I was wrong, but last night was beautiful, didn't she like it? What was she thinking? Why did she leave like this?"Arghh." I groaned and got out of bed.Trying to get Aubrey out of my
17Aubrey's pov"I have to follow him!"I said as I paced back and forth, looking for God knows what!I saw it in his eyes, he was badly hurt, he was hurt that I did this to him and I was hurt that he was hurt, he looked so defeated, so lost, and I was the cause of it all!Why did I even venture into stealing the parcel in the first place? What the hell was I thinking? Wait- how did he even come to know?Look at the mess I've made, I couldn't even protect his parcel, he must hate me now, that's a fact.My heart was hammering hard in my chest."Are you crazy? You can't follow him now, he'll kill you!" Drexel said."He won't.""Oh, I don't think you noticed how he killed you with his
EpilogueAubrey's pov6 YEARS LATERHe changed... It was unbelievable but it happened, he stopped the unessecary killings, he stopped the torture and kidnappings, he was really better, we were at peace... Or so we thought...We lived everyday in six years, looking begin our backs, knowing that it is only a matter of time before the Hawks finally strike with full force.But I have no issue with Tyler going into full Mafia mode... Why? Well... I guess it was because Max was way more interested In all this shit than anybody would have thought... He was ever determined to get the parcel back to the Bresforts mob... But it wasn't just to keep it... His main motive was to destroy it.He knew how important it was and how dangerous it would be if the key wa
42Aubrey's pov It wasn't a dream.He was here, Tyler goddam Bresfort was standing right Infront of me with a gun pointed to my head, he was right here and it feels like time stopped.Everyone thought he was dead, everyone believed that Tyler finally had a taste of his own medicine... But no... Here he is, staring at me like he was seeing me for the freaking first time...He dropped his gun slowly.I took few steps closer to him, unable to control myself, tears made their way to my eyes, blurring my vision... I lightly pushed his chest, just to be sure."Seriously? You believed?" He finally said...I looked back up at him, shaking my head without control. "No.
41Tyler's pov Alfonso took few steps to his table, his eyes never leaving mine. I could tell by the look on his face that he didn't see this coming, well, he should have known."Tyler? What are you doing?" He asked me, joining his brows together in confusion. "What do you think you're doing?"The chaos downstairs could be heard very clearly, the sound of gunshots here and there."I'm putting an end to this madness." I answered him... "You're going to stop whatever it is that you're planning."He shook his head slowly. "You never understood... Just like always... You were never into all this, the Mafia isn't for you Tyler.
40Aubrey's pov "South side of Vino... That's where the Hawks are, yeah- I'll gather couple of my men, to go check it out... Yes sir- I'll appreciate. Yeah." Davy finally dropped his phone, turning to face me. "We have all the support we need... Now, we just have to go there."Relief settled deep in my stomach. "That's great- when are we going?"Davy's brows came together. "We?" He asked."Yes, I hope you know that I'm coming with, I want to go too." I said.Davy shock his head several times. "No, no, I won't let that happen, you can't come with us. It's too dangerous."&
39Tyler's pov The hug my dad was giving me right now, was an uncomfortable one, my mind was swimming with unanswered questions, how come is he still alive? All these years he has been away from the family- he was alive? How is that even possible?How is it possible that you're also alive.My dad broke the hug. "Come with me slugger, I can see that you have questions to ask, I'll answer everyone of them... But not Infront of these dead men." He smirked.I just gave him a blank look... So they were taking orders from him? He is the leader of the Hawks? What kind of betrayal is this.I wouldn't have followed him, but I had so
38Tyler's pov My eyes snapped open, as I jumped right up in bed, trying to breath enough air into my lungs, my hands flew to my chest where I'd being shot earlier, I felt no pain or bullet wound holes... What the-My eyes scanned my surroundings to find that I was in a large room and the bed was unfamiliar, the room looked really empty..."How the hell did I get here?" I said to myself.Getting up from the bed, my bare foot met with the cold white ground, my head gave a small spin making me grip the bed handle... I blinked several times to get my vision back into place.Aubrey.
37Aubrey's povYou know that feeling you get when you know that nothing good could ever come out of your current situation? I was feeling the exact thing... I was really trying so hard to be positive, praying and hoping for a miracle as I paced in the hospital hall way, trying so hard not to breakdown and cry.Alicia and Jullie were doing just that as they tried to comfort each other with hugs, My mom was also here. Carmen and Lilo had to stay back with Max. Drexel and Davy had gone out a few minutes ago to get coffee for us... But trust me, coffee was the last thing on my mind right now... I refused to blame karma for this, I blame myself... If I hadn't pester him on going to see what the hell was going on, he wouldn't have gotten three
36Tyler's pov The jolly music in the background of the reception was doing nothing to distract me from my wife's beauty.The wedding was a success, just like I planned it, we were actually doing the couple dance stuff, it was boring and stressful, all I wanted was for this night to end, I wanted some alone time with my wife.My wife...It sounded good in my ears, it made me realize how far we've come, all the killings and arguments- it all just led us here, to the reception of our wedding.My mom was perhaps the most happiest person in this reception, she was really happy, she bragged about me to her friends, I guess they once told her
35Aubrey's pov Tyler's face formed into a wide grin as we got down from the car, I wonder why he brought me over to my mom's house?"You didn't answer my question?” Tyler frowned."Maybe that's because you didn't answer mine earlier." I retorted. He asked me how his acting skills fell into place, I mean, I was worried- He acted like something terrible was about to happen and we needed to escape like our lives depended on it. He made it seem like our lives depended on it.He swung his arm over my shoulder as we walked down the lawn to my mother's house, this place brought up so many memories for me.
