“Nadia stop” I heard Lorenzo call after me,
I felt fear, panic, anger, anxiety, and frustration flow throw me like water, it was drowning me and I was gladly letting it.
I kept crashing into people and things as my legs found themselves unwilling in a race.
I didn't know what I was looking for or what I was running from. I ran until I couldn't feel anything anymore, I just wanted everything to stop, as I soon came to a halt.
There were over ten men pointing guns at me from different directions.
“Nadia, drop the gun down,” Lorenzo said.
I looked at my hand to see that I was still holding on to the gun Lorenzo gave me earlier.
I gazed at it unconsciously and I could feel the men around me tense up as they held on tightly to their guns.
The truth is, I wanted to use the gun, not on anyone but myself, I thought of ending it all right there. But the fact I was carryi

Six months laterNadia's POV “What do two pregnant women do when their baby papa is not around?” I asked Scarlett or should I say, Rosemary. Yeah, she got the name, and since she said she liked it so it was hers to keep.We were relaxing outside our pool in our temporal home in Spain. It is a small modest apartment, it wasn't extravagant, it had a three-bedroom space and a living room with a small garden and a mini swimming pool. I only had issues in my first trimester, but as soon as I entered the second trimester I became a social butterfly, the only thing that reminds me that I am pregnant is my bump, it's

Lorenzo's POVLife has been nothing but peaceful in the past six months, we have had lots of battles with the Russian Mafias, we have both lost some men, and from the look of things, more are likely going to die.Sending Nadia and Viz girl was a good idea at the time, but now that we are expecting them back, I have to tighten more their security.While a part of me is excited that Nadia is coming back, the other part is a bit uncertain.The last time I saw a picture of her, her Tommy was looking so huge that I have to wonder how she fucking sleeps at night with it.I can't believe I did that.After staying close to seven months of not having sex, I am pretty much immune to it already. And perhaps I have heard most pregnant women do not like sex.Or do they?“I still think we should go and get them ourselves” viz said, his voice jolting me out of my thoughts.We were both walking around the h

Nadia POVI woke up with a beautiful smile on my face as I lean closer to the Italian god sleeping beside me. I have never felt so happy in a long time, I felt as if I have just been reborn with all effects of having great sex.It is true what they say that good sex clears the mind.Last night was everything beautiful and more, I lost count at some point at how many times we did it. We were like two insatiable animals in heat, the sex was incredible.Now I know why some folks get pregnant annually, the sex is amazing.“Good morning,” Lorenzo said in a deep baritone, it was so fucking sexy that if I wasn't fucking bruised, I would have asked for one more round.“Good morning,” I said pressing a soft kiss on his lips, I was about to move out of his hold when I felt him pull me closer.“We should stay like this all day," he said pressing his face into my hair to inhale it.“You will get bored of

Lorenzo's POVI was about to sit down on my chair in my office when Vicenzo walked in, his mood was somehow gloomy.Not exactly what I was expecting to see, since he has been anxiously waiting for his woman to get back from Spain, and now that she is back, he is wearing a long face."What the fuck is going on with you?" I asked as soon as he was seated on the chair"I couldn't do it, man," he said running his hand over his bald head in frustration."You couldn't fucking do what?" I asked, trying so hard to remember if there was anything I had earlier asked him to do."I couldn't make love to Scarlett," he said with his face down like a child caught lying for the first time. Fuck! In a much as I hate to admit it, this dude has grown softballs."Why""She was looking stressed and her Tommy is big, I didn't know how to go about it in other to not hurt her or the baby, now she is not talking to me because she is angry," he said in

Nadia's POVRage.That is the only word that can attempt to describe the wave of emotions flooding through my entire body at the mere sight of someone I once respected and looked up to.I wanted to do more than just kill him, I wanted him to feel every iota of pain and betrayal he has ever caused me or anyone else for that matter.I wanted to hurt him so bad that in his next life if there is one, he would never be able to hurt anyone else.“Why did you do it?" I found myself asking him while staring at him directly into his eyes.“Why did I do what?" he asked, matching my gaze with his.“Why did you slay my father”“Well, for obvious reasons, it was either me or him,” he said nonchalantly, his expression was plain, with no fraction of remorsefulness.“But he was not part of this, I'm so sure he never knew you were part of it either, and you chose to kill him to save your si

Lorenzo POVWe went back into the car we came In and drove straight to the house, after which we went to the underground equipment room.According to Vince, he had injected Scarlett with a mini liquidated microchip, the chip is untraceable due to its liquid state, but can only be traced when the serial number of that particular dose is typed into the system, it will lead you to its current location.“Why the fuck did you bring her in here?” I asked,“I brought her in for training,“But you know you were not supposed to let anyone know about this place,” I said, “I know but I wasn't so sure of Nadia's true intentions when she first came here and since they were friends I brought her here to teach her how to use a gun in case she needs to defend herself,” he said, his voice a bit shaking and uncertain, but his facial expression depicted someone fearlessly.I was going to

Nadia POV“Who is she?” Lorenzo asked after we got back home from the hospital where Scarlett had been admitted.The doctor said that She was injected with a sedative and that once it was out of her system, she was going to be alright.I can't believe how close I was to losing Scarlett today due to my foolishness if I had just listened to Lorenzo when he told me not to go out in the morning.It was raining heavily outside with lots of thunder and lightning, and as a result, we got drenched in the rain before we could get into the house. I had changed my clothes and was drying my hair with a towel.“She is his daughter,” I said letting out a deep breath, I was feeling tired, or let's just say overwhelmed from all the activity of the day.I knew Lorenzo was under a lot of stress as some of his men were beginning to wag their tongues as to why we borough my little cousin with us.They had their reason,

Lorenzo's POVBy the time I came back from our medical section where I went to see Vicenzo, Nadia was already in the room, she was sitting on the bed while resting her head on the wooden bed frame, and looking lost in thoughts.All the way here from the hospital, all I have been thinking about was how I was going to make it up to her. I felt bad about how I spoke with her earlier and hoped that she might understand the fact that I was under lots of pressure.Another issue that has kept me restless was the fact that we could be under attack at any given moment, owning to the fact that Dmitri is still out on the loose, and as of this moment, we do not know his whereabouts or what his next game plan might be.“hey," I said, as I walked closer to the bed, I sat down on the edge of the bed so I can sit facing her, she turned to look at me, after attempting to wipe her face, it appears she has been crying as her eyes were tear-stained.

I was feeling a bit weak like I had just woken up from deep sleep, I didn't know where I was or who I was with, many questions flooded through my mind as I squeeze on the hand that was placed on mine. “Good, very good, now I want to follow the ray of light that I will flash while your eyes are still closed,” he said as I felt a sharp light moving across my eyes, I unconsciously tighten my eyelids. “Relax, just relax, now I want you to open your eyes slowly, I have turned off the torchlight, but the room is fully Illuminated, I want you to do it slowly” I tried opening my eyes, at first it felt like they were glued together as my eyelids seem heavy, but when I finally had them opened, my eyes fell on the elderly-looking doctor who smiled at me as soon as he saw m

Seven days laterNadia's POV"Are you sure you are ready to face him?" Scarlett asked with genuine concern in her tune.She was seated on the chair watching me as I put final touches on my very light makeup. I didn't want to appear before my evil uncle looking weary or in distress, I want to him to see that I am still happy before he dies.I want him to know that even though he stole everyone and everything from me, that I am still going to be happy, I want my smiling face to be the last thing he sees before I sniff the life out of him.I stood at the mirror to look at myself in the black leather pants and black crop top I had on, my Tommy had snapped back a few days after my delivery. I parked my hair into a ponytail, leaving a few strands of hair to dance freely in my face, and lastly, I wore my pair of b

Nadia POV I woke up to a whole new wave of pain, my hand instinctively went to my lower abdomen to feel the bandage that was carefully placed on my Tommy, it fucking hurt. I looked up to see that Scarlett was sitting by my side, her expression was a mixture of happiness and gloominess. Now that was not what I was expecting to see, especially since we all have been excitedly waiting to see the babies. I too wasn't exactly happy and the reason is not far-fetched, I expected Lorenzo to be here when I wake up since I didn't see him all through last night. My mind went back to how I walked in on Vicenzo in the waiting area what was he doing there and why was he covered Scarlett was not exactly looking at me, she didn't know I was awake, I tried sitting up and noticed my Tommy was hurting badly, that was when she shifted her gaze back to me. “Hey you,” she said wearing a genuine smile. “Hey,” I replied “Congratulations," sh

Vicenzo's POVI quickly took off my jacket and pressed it on Lorenzo's head, using both hands as hard as I could to stop the bleeding as there was so much blood pumping out of his head."Let's take him up," I said to the men with me who were looking rather confused about what to do. I soon figured out their confusion as I angrily took my rifle from where I dropped it on the floor to smash unsuspecting Dmitri's head.His body collapsed to the floor. That instant I didn't care about Lorenzo's orders which were to keep the bastard alive, as my only concern at that moment was how to keep Lorenzo alive.We quickly carried Lorenzo out of there and we soon as we got into the main house, there was an ambulance waiting outside the house. Two male nurses ran towards us carrying the stretcher with them and immediately they got to where we were, they lifted him into the stretcher while an oxygen mask was quickly placed over his nostrils. Seconds later, they car

Lorenzo POVHave you ever been hit by a baseball bat on your chest or in your Tommy?It is not exactly something fun to look forward to, and the fact that I was wearing a bulletproof vest did not in any way hinder the effect of the gunshot that I just received.“So you are wearing a bulletproof?” he asked after not seeing any sign of blood on my shirt.“So you are a coward, huh?” I said to the motherfucker who seem to be enjoying my pains.I thought of ways of having this dude take the fucking gun off my face, as I know that any wrong move from me can cost me my life, and I don't fucking want to die. Those swift turns and moves you see lead actors do In the movies are film tricks, you can't go pissing off a guy with a gun to your head“No, I just don't like cliché.

Do I want to get married?

He came to the room this evening and suddenly realized that we have never really had an actual date, and that he has been planning for us to have one, he said was tonight. This is coming three days after we were told that we were expecting twins.He was so busy looking through my pile of clothes as most of the clothes he has earlier picked did not fit due to my huge bump.“so what do you think of this?” he asked lifting a free-size chiffon gown with a smoky plinth at the waistline. I got the dress from Spain and never really got to wear it.“Well, it depends on where we are going” I said hoping for heaven's sake that he just say it instead of making me guess.I hate been kept in suspense.“You will see” he said, with that he helped
