Vicenzo's POV
I 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
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
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

I miss you so much, I miss your smile, your laughter, and the way you love me.Do you still love me, Lorenzo?Our kids are growing up super fast, they are crawling and making attempts to stand on their two feet.

Lorenzo's POV “Can you hear me, if you can, I want you to squeeze my hand a little" I heard a friendly male voice say to me? 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
Ten years before Nadia's POV “Come on darling, make a wish,” Daddy said, with a big smile on his face. The light from the candle that was carefully placed on the cake sparkled through his eyes. He was so excited to have made it home in time before I slept, even though he came late from the factory where he earned his minimum wage. “Can we just wrap this up, she needs her beauty sleep,” Mum said, yawning tiredly. My little brother who was five months old at that time was stressing her out, he feeds every thirty minutes interval. But dad wanted to
Nadia's POV “So what? are you going to kill me? send my soul to the hottest part of hell?” he asked, teasing me with his breath. There was something about the way I felt around him, I couldn't just place my head around it. I felt different, a good different if I must admit. “I could give you all the pleasure you have ever imagined, and perhaps it's bad luck to kill a man on your birthday bell... Beautiful” he said softly to my ears, I could feel the warm moisture between my increase, as I felt my hand loosen its hold on him. Despite the calm aura he wants to storm up, there was something else about him. That felt dangerous, and I could almost taste the danger that radiant from him on my tongue. But, if he is that dangerous, why am I not scared of him? Why do I feel shy around him? Nadia get it together He probably is just playing a
Lorenzo's POV I came back home and went straight to my room. I was angry and out of place. I can't believe she passed out after eating the chocolate I gave her. why would a stripper want to drug her? Well, technically that would have made my initial job of wanting to kill her very easy but I couldn't fucking bring myself to do it. She is so young. She is a fucking Russian, I can't be all soft around her, I'm so sure she would kill me at the slightest chance she gets. What the fuck is wrong with me I was about to take off my clothes when I heard a knock on the door, my gaze immediately shifted to the door as I listened to the pattern of the sound again. The sound came again, and I immediately knew who the person wants to speak with. "Come in," I said. The door opened Vicenzo came in
Nadia's POV He walked out of the room, closely followed by his guards. The door was closed and the whole place was thrown into a deafening silence. The bright light came back on, with no voices. my foot was seriously wriggling from the bloody heels I had on. The whole place was stinky from blood and corpses, I have been desperately trying to avoid looking at the dead people and the mere sight of them freaks me out. I may be a badass and all, but I am still a girl. I turned to look at the other survival, she looked frightened and stunned at the same time. “What is your name,” I asked. I wasn't sure if it was the right move but seriously I needed to just have a conversation with someone. The day has been hectic. I thought about the stripper who was murdered on his way to my place and the one that got me drugge

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. I mean, what's the use of having this conversation when I can just put a bullet through your brains and save myself the stress of
Nadia's POVI'm asking you to marry meI'm asking you to marry meI'm asking you to marry meLorenzo's voice kept echoing on my head over and over again.Have you ever felt as you have just been hit by a thunderbolt?Please don't get me wrong, I am sure that I love Lorenzo a lot but, is it enough for me to want to spend a lifetime with him?what If he is just treating me nicely because he feels pity for me, what if he changes after we get married? Do I want to get married? Will I be a good wife?“Please say something” Lorenzo who has been starting at me from across the table said.“I..*clears throat*I...don't think I am ready to get married” I heard myself say.What the Fuck!I can't believe I just said that, I mean, I do like him a lot an
Nadia’s POV“You still haven't told me where you are taking me to,” I tiredly said to Lorenzo who was busy picking the perfect dress for me from the wardrobe. 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
Nadia POVjust when you think you can't possibly hear anything more devastating about my ex-uncle, he surprises you with another one.Like the fuck!“He was sleeping with his daughter, he wasn't contented with his wife and all the whores out there, he chose to do the nasty with his blood, I have been underestimating his level of callousness,” I said angrily at Lorenzo after he practically pulled me back into our room the“You need to calm down, you have been stressing yourself a whole lot lately, and I am beginning to think that maybe you need to go stay with my mum," Lorenzo who has been standing and just staring at me said.“I'm going not going anywhere, I am staying right here to have this baby and when I do, I will be the one to put a bullet through that motherfucker brain," I said unable to control how angry I was fuck was that moment“No, what you need to do is go somewhere safe and
