As soon as he learns what their plan of action is, Enzo can't help but question the couple, "Are you both confident that this would work?"In response to her cousin, Kaira shrugged her shoulders. "Nothing is guaranteed at this point, Enz. You yourself recognize that we are not assured about anything, and at this moment all we can hope for is for the plan to work out. We need to put an end to this, otherwise many lives will be lost."This time, it was James who aired his opinion about the matter being discussed. "Yeah, we may need to put an end to this conflict, but still, we cannot assure you that your father will be spared, Kaira." He even glanced at Calix, waiting for his friend to back him up on what he said, but Calix was just looking at his wife intently. James then continued to say, "Look, Kaira, no matter how hard Calix and I make an effort, there's no w
"Calix, ooh!" Kaira calling out his name like that just adds to the fire that is burning inside of him. He is having goosebumps just hearing his wife moan his name in pleasure. "Cal, shit! I can't hold it anymore. Take me!"It was just supposed to be a kiss and nothing more than that. They don't have the luxury of time to engage in more than just a kiss, but Calix can't even control himself, especially when Kaira is being like this with him. His mind is now clouded with lust for his wife, and he can't be blamed for even feeling this way. He misses her so much, and the time he spent away from her just made him realize how much he values her. Something that he never imagined he will be able to admit freely.Now, with Kaira in his arms again, it almost felt the same, like it was their first encounter together. It was full of passion and raw emotions, but unlike their first night together, he is not holding back on keeping the memories of the woman he is with embedded in his heart. Kaira
Luca's guys were inconsolable at that moment. Numerous shots were being fired at his private property by unknown men. They were all out of touch with the reality that was happening around them. One minute, they are all in relaxed mode, and then all of a sudden, they are all fighting for their lives. Nobody expected this to happen, especially in broad daylight.One of the gang members shrieked out, "Damn! We're under attack! We're under continuous firing, and we need back-up! Call for reinforcements and protect the boss at all costs!"Luca's troops have no choice but to conceal themselves while trying to return the fire as the gunshots keep coming for them. They had not been ready for an ambush, much less one on their own territory. They are panicking but still trying their best to put up a good fight, regardless of the fact that they know that they
"Calix, where in the freaking hell are you? Why are you not here and why have you not been doing what you are supposed to do? You have responsibilities for this family, but you were not here when we were attacked! Damn you!""What? Attack? What do you mean you were attacked?""Don't you know anything?! This is absurd! As my heir, you have the responsibility of leading this family! You should have been here fighting for this gang, but could you please remind me again, where were you when we were on the verge of death and extinction?""What exactly are you saying, Father? What attack? Who attacked you?""That is a question that you were supposed to find the answer to. Find the damn assholes who attacked us. Find the culprit and bring them to me dead."
"Bella, how many times do I have to tell you that Giovanni has refused to permit anyone to go anywhere at this point? War is starting with the Hendrix's, and so we must obey him. You know that his words are commands that we need to follow all the time.""Mom, how many times do I have to tell you the fact that his words don't matter to me? I do not consider myself part of this family, just as your husband doesn't consider me as his own. And I no longer wish for his acceptance, because I can find my own path in this life. Simply put, I am not you, therefore I am free to do as I please."Once again, Belinda has had enough of her impulsive and frequently reckless daughter. She is doing everything in her power to get Giovanni to take in Bella, but her daughter consistently goes against what is commanded, making it hard for her husband to trust her completely and ack
"Where the hell are they?!" Luca roared in anger as he walked into the location where he was supposed to meet with Calix, but his son was still not there. "Fucking Calix! Where the hell is he?! Where the hell is Kaira?!"He is agitated given that time is of crucial significance in this situation. He's lost a lot of his men in the attack, and he can't be too sure of his safety while he's still struggling to determine if Giovanni is tracking them or not, which would also explain why he has to secure his ace before Giovanni can make another attempt against them.Kaira is his only way to survive another ambush attempt by Giovanni. The Lombardi clan won't be too aggressive with dealing with his gang if they know that their princess is with him. And this is why he can't wait to see Kaira.At this point, he doesn't know wh
The air was filled with clouds of smoke as the shooting intensified with each passing minute. This situation has persisted for some time now, showing no signs of abating. It appears that whoever is orchestrating this chaos has only one purpose in mind: to take out the enemy and make sure that they will fall.With powerful troops around them, Luca's group is forced to get involved in direct combat. They must take action to avoid being taken over again, even though they are obviously outnumbered. The person causing this disruption for them appeared to be trying to make sure they lose their lives today.Luca's men had been rushing from place to place in an attempt to conceal themselves from the attackers so they wouldn't be approaching death in a couple of minutes. They are unaware of who they are facing or who is coming for them at the moment, but they are aware
Drew pointed out, "Boss, we've located them. All of the information that Bella managed to disclose is accurate. I am confirming that Luca is indeed in the vicinity she mentioned, and although there are no movements yet from them, I think they are preparing for something."When Giovanni learned about this, he turned his attention to his Sotto Capo. "Alex, prepare the men for war. I am sure that he knows it was us; clearly he was able to get hold of my message. Tonight, we are going to take that asshole to his grave for continuing to cross me and for having the recklessness to even use my daughter against me. Him taking Kaira is the last straw in all of this betrayal."Alex nodded in agreement. "The men are geared up for any battle. We are ready to take back our Ereditiera. We will give Luca and his men the pain and the misery that they haven't felt before."

"You're still the same drop-dead gorgeous and sizzling hot woman that makes me lose control, my wife," he murmured as he clutched her face in his hands and fiercely kissed her. She didn't even hold back and kissed him as aggressively as she could. His tongue explored her mouth, and she gasped at the pleasure she was receiving from the kiss.He slips his arms behind her back and unzips her dress, allowing it to drop to the floor without breaking the kiss. When he was running out of breath, he took a step back to take in the stunning sight in front of him. His jeans continued to bulge just by looking at her in her underwear."You’re fucking mine, Kaira!" He snarled, his lips crashing into hers once again. In between those kisses, he added, "You are mine and mine alone!""And you are mine, Calix. Only mine!"
"After everything, you're simply going to leave me. Not even a simple explanation as to the why or when or even the how? And when are you intending to tell me about this, Cugino? I am genuinely disappointed in you that you are just shutting me out of your life simply because you found the love of your life."Kaira had been anticipating this reaction from Enzo, so she is not caught off guard when her cousin storms into her office to start interrogating her. She was even expecting him to be here before she came, and his reaction is quite understandable but a little more exaggerated than necessary."So, really no explanation at all? As in nothing coming from you that will make me understand this decision? Nada? You just want me to accept this as it is, Kaira? Don't I have a say in this?"As she rose from her seat and w
James understood that he needed to head out as soon as Kaira entered the room so the two could have a conversation. He just motioned for the couple that he would leave them to talk to, to which the two did not even bother to respond to him.As he went out, he could only release an exhaustive sigh. He was never expecting Kaira to come around, but he is grateful that she did. To put it simply, he was also relieved that Enzo had managed to convince his cousin to be here and to give his friend a chance to explain what really happened that night that his mother was killed.Admittedly, when Calix took the choice to give up the fight and to just surrender to his fate, he was so distraught that he made an effort to contact Kaira as well, but as he had expected, she never responded to him, so he had to reach out to Enzo instead. Kaira's cousin is his only remaining chan
"Cal, how have you been? Are you okay here? I am sorry that it is just now that I was able to come. I am working with the lawyers right now on getting you out as soon as we can. Your testimony can't be enough grounds to lock you up.""I'm good, James; there's absolutely nothing you need to fret about. And besides, who told you to work with the lawyers? Who says anything about getting out of here? I don't want to get out. I deserve to be here and serve prison time for the crime I have committed to Kaira's mother.""This is bullshit, Calix! I am getting you out of here before you get transferred and endorsed to the Italian authorities!""Why such a response from you, though? I am good here. These people are our people; they won't do anything bad to me. And even if I get transferred, what's wrong with that? We have wor
"Hey, I see you're back. Done with your drama already, stepsister?" Bella was surprised to see Kaira in the mansion after several days of not being around.Kaira has no intention of holding back as she snaps at her wicked stepsister, "Exactly what are you still doing here in my house, Bella? Enjoying it too much, or are you still simply attempting to take my place around here?""Are you forgetting that it is you who has been taking things from me, Kaira?""Excuse me?! How can I take anything from you when you don't have anything in the first place? How pathetic can you really be to still be here? Can't you take a hint that you are not welcome here?"Bella lashed out back, "You've taken everything away from me, you bitch!" angrily. She is the one who instigated this word
"Still nothing until now. We don't have any reports as to where they are. What about you? Nothing as well?" Calix can only shake his head in response to his friend's question. "So, since that day you haven't heard from your wife?""Nothing. She's refusing to return my calls or any of my messages. I've been reaching out to Enzo, but even he is unwilling to tell me where the hell they are. I've been trying to communicate with her, but she just shut me off. I have also checked with the Italian institution as well; they have not been there because they have a mission. Fuck it! Damn, Bella, for destroying the most beautiful thing that has ever happened to me!""I don't want to say this to you, but I have to. I've told you from the beginning to tell your wife the truth, but you are such a coward not to be truthful to her."
"Ehi bella ragazza, ce ne stiamo andando." (Hey pretty girl, we're leaving.)"What? You're leaving? Why all of a sudden?""Father said we have to leave for America. He has a work opportunity there, and that will be good for us.""So does that mean that we will no longer be friends?""Saremo sempre amici. E ho vinto; non tornare indietro sulla mia promessa a tuo padre che un giorno ti sposerò. (We will always be friends. And I won't go back on my promise to your father that I will marry you someday.) I will marry you when I grow up, bella Kaira."Kaira's cheeks reddened and instantly blushed because of what her only friend told her. She knows that those words cannot be taken seriously, but it brings a warm feeling to her heart
