The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 49- Phone Call
LANA'S POVI locked myself in my bedroom and cried. I wished that I could see my mother and ask her if this was true or if Costa was playing tricks with me. If I had the superpower to get her to talk to me wherever she was, I wouldn't have hesitated to ask her to come forth and confirm this news to me. It was me, her, and Costa in the picture. The note on the back of the picture was written by her. She and Costa seemed to be in love in the picture. But I just couldn't believe it. It felt like I've not been living my life all my life. It felt like there was so much that was still hidden from me. I still didn't know what to think about Costa. If whether or not I wanted to have a relationship with him or not. I didn't even know if I would be able to see him and acknowledge him as my father. "Lana, open up please..." Dax begged on the other side of the door. "I am going to break this door down if you don't answer me..." he threatened, but I didn't pay attention to it.I just cried and
The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 50- Party Pooper
AUGUST 2022DAX'S POVTwo weeks later, my apartment was decorated to celebrate Lana's 25th birthday. She was out to meet with her mentor when I organized everything and wanted her to have the best day of her life. I invited Xavier and wanted them to try and get better. They were talking at least, trying to make up for everything that happened. I bought her favorite Hyacinth flowers and made sure that it was breathtaking. I didn't want to leave out anything that I knew that she would love to see at her birthday party. I also had a surprise for her for the next step of our relationship when everyone had gone. "I hope she will like this," Xavier poured himself a glass of wine as we waited to see that everything was set and ready for Lana's arrival. "I know she will like this. She's been looking happier these past few days.""Oh?" Xavier smirked."Stop it, you're not the reason." He chuckled. "I didn't say I was, but you just admitted that she's been happier these past few days, and i
The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 51- Almost Perfect
LANA'S POVBefore I saw Xavier next to Dax when I walked into the living room, and people were singing a birthday song for me, I hoped that I'd see him today. Nothing could explain the joy in my heart when I saw him. I was really happy that he showed up even though he didn't tell me that he would be coming to see me. My heart melted when I was everyone who was invited to my surprise birthday party. It made sense why Dax encouraged me to go and see my mentor today. He wanted to arrange everything for me. It made me emotional because no one had ever done something like this for me before. Xavier's True North necklace gift was out of this world. I loved it so much that I could not help myself but jump into his arms. I forgot for a moment that the house was filled with strangers and people that I didn't want to know my business with them. "You're so beautiful, I want to take you away from this place and show you how much I've missed you," Xavier whispered into my ear as I received my gi
The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 52- Baltimore
LANA'S POVI woke up the following day and found Dax and Xavier in bed with me. I got off the bed and watched them for a moment before I went to the bathroom to take a shower. I looked myself in the mirror, appreciated my life, and counted my blessings. I was still here and thriving, I had to give myself a little pat on the back.After I showered, I dressed up and quietly left my bedroom while Dax and Xavier were still asleep. I figured that they might have had too much to drink yesterday. But it worked to my advantage because I didn't plan to be around the house today. Instead, I took my handbag, went outside, stood there for a while, and gazed upon the car that Costa bought for my birthday. I had to admit that Costa had a taste in cars and the one he bought for me was no exception. It was exquisite and the thought that it belonged to me gave me goosebumps. I decided that I had nothing to lose and went to the car and opened it. I found a little box on the driver's seat and there we
The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 53- Awful Family Dinner
LANA'S POVAs soon as I pulled outside the driveway, Xavier and Dax came out. They both had their hands inside their pockets as they waited for me to come out of the car. I looked at them, took a deep breath, and got out of the car. "Where are you coming from?" Dax asked as soon as I took a step to the stairs leading to the front door. "I just got home," I walked up to them and went inside the house. They mumbled something behind my back and followed behind. They closed the door and looked at me as I sat down on the sofa and took a very deep breath. I didn't know how to distract them so that they wouldn't ask me a thousand questions about where I was and why I did not see a need to tell them where I was. "You left this morning without saying a word or even asking Nicholas to drive you wherever you wanted to go. At least if you had done so, we wouldn't have spent the entire day worrying about you and why you had to switch off your phone," Dax scolded me. "I am not a child, Dax!""
The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 54- Unwelcome Visitor
LANA'S POV"What are you doing here, Costa?" I got up from the couch and felt like I was going to hyperventilate."I came to talk to you about the DNA, Lana. You requested it, remember?" He walked towards us and stood just a little distance from me. I wished that he did not show up whenever I seemed to be happy in my life. "I know, but you have no right to show up in here whenever you want!" "Lana, it's okay," Dax tried to calm me down. "No, he needs to leave. I don't want you here, Costa." I sneered at him. “Yes, leave Costa. You are not welcome here.” Xavier stood by my side.Whether Costa was truly my father or not, I didn't want him to be in my life. The damage had already been done and nothing was ever going to make up for the fact that I lost my parents when I was young. I mourned them for years until I eventually accepted that this was how things were meant to be for me. Not all of us were meant to grow up in a cozy home with our parents, and I made peace that I was amongs
The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 55- Betrayal and Heartbreak
XAVIER'S POV"You knew Lana 12 years ago?" Dax asked me when I came down to the living room. I took a long breath. "It was at Boliver. I didn't even know it was her all this time, but I ran away that day!" It felt like the walls were closing in on me. My past had come again to tear Lana away from me. I didn't know what to do or not to do. My mind was all over the place. "Wait a minute, you went to Boliver? When and how?" Dax was shocked. He knew everything else I did, but not the incident at Boliver when I quit being a street thug with my friends. "The school trip I told you and Dad about was made up. I was going to Boliver with my friends for a job that we wanted done..."(12 YEARS AGO, XAVIER'S MEMORY)"We wait here for the people who are going to do the business transaction, everybody understand?" JJ said after briefing us about the people who were going to do a drug business transaction at the ally around sunset. We hid behind the waste bins and brainstormed how we were going t
The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 56- Article
LANA'S POVI stared at the ceiling while I lay on the bed. I wanted to feel numb and not shed a tear after everything that happened. The thought that Xavier was there the day my life changed forever, broke me more than I had imagined. I loved him but wanted to hate him at the same time, but I couldn't.I wanted to hate him and feel nothing for him anymore. He seemed to be everything that I was not supposed to fall in love with. Perhaps this was another sign from the universe that we were not meant to be. As much as I loved him and my heart broke when I imagined him not with me, I had to find it in my heart to let him go. "Lana?" Dax knocked on the door again. The desperation in his voice to see me open the door was evident. But I hesitated, I didn't want to cry when I saw his face. "I want to be alone, Dax!" I yelled loud enough for him to hear from the other side of the door. "Please open the door..." He continued to beg. I sighed and got off the bed and went to the door. I opene

The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers Epilogue
OCTOBER 2022LANA'S POVThe next morning, I woke up from my cell phone ringing inside my bag. I got up and took it out of the handbag and answered it. "Hello?""Is this Amalah James?" I hesitated for a second, closed my eyes, and exhaled. "Yes?""You're talking with Din Flemmings, I am Paolo Costa's lawyer. I am calling regarding your father's estate." "Oh." I sat down on the couch in the bedroom and looked at Dax and Xavier as they got up and looked at me with confused expressions on their faces. It was a bit weird that Costa already listed me as one of the beneficiaries of his estate when we only reunited shortly before his death. "Can I come and see you to talk in person, Miss James?" "Oh, I'm- That will be okay, I guess." I was hesitant."Perfect. You can send a location of your choosing," Din replied enthusiastically. "I will send you my house address," I answered. "That will be perfect. I hope to see you soon."I hung up the call and felt like there was a big lump in my
The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 72- Proposal
LANA'S POVI rushed out of the house and went to my car, and when I got inside, I cried against the steering wheel. I wanted to feel nothing when I saw JJ and killed him, but the thought that his blood was on my hands, tortured me. Dax couldn't even help without making me feel worse than I already felt. I sniffled and lifted my head off the steering wheel, pushed the key inside the ignition, and drove away. I went straight to the nearest bar that I could find. I ordered five shots of vodka and gulped them as if they didn't make me feel as if my tongue was being burned. I wanted to forget everything that happened and wake up to a whole new chapter of my life. I was tired of how miserable I felt every day since I lost my parents. I needed a break..."Lana, we need to go home." A familiar voice spoke as I felt a hand tap on my shoulder. My head was heavy as I lifted my head from the table and looked at the person. "Dax?" "Can we go home?""I don't want to go home. I don't want to go
The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 71- JJ's Demise
DAX'S POV "She's been sitting in that exact position on the couch for hours now. She refuses to eat anything or even drink anything. I don't know what we should do," I vented to Xavier as we watched Lana from the upstairs balcony. "JJ is in the garage, so maybe she should see him before I kill him." Xavier's response sounded as if he didn't think before talking. I quickly turned and looked at him and whispered. "Are you insane? She doesn't need to see that asshole after what he did to her, again." "It's the only way to get her out of the current state that she's in. She must face him," he still insisted. "No, Xavier. That's a stupid idea and it's not happening," I stood my ground. "Where is he?" We looked down when we heard Lana's voice. Xavier took the opportunity to give me a 'I told you so' look and I frowned. I took a deep breath and headed down the stairs to Lana. "You need to get something to eat and rest," I said when I got to her side. I wanted to see JJ pay for eve
The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 70- Breaking In
XAVIER'S POVI kept counting the minutes that Lana was inside Suzy's apartment. I wondered if she remembered that we had to be somewhere and did not have time to waste here. I frowned because I saw this from a mile away, and if they had both listened to me, Dax and I wouldn't have found ourselves in this awkward situation. "We have to go in." I was infuriated and Rico was not even close to finding that asshole JJ. He was nowhere to be found and his bodyguards were back at Boliver, which was very unlikely that JJ could go anywhere without them."She's only been there for ten minutes, Xavier. Just calm down," Dax replied in a very relaxed tone. "She's been with her forever, Dax." "Can you trust her for a minute and give at least five more minutes? Suzy is her best friend, remember?""Fine," I huffed and dialed Rico's number. "Tell me you got some clues about where he could be," I said as soon as he picked up the phone. "He didn't leave Highwaters.""Are you sure he didn't go back t
The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 69- Deja Vu
LANA'S POVTo figure out where exactly we could find JJ, I started off by calling Suzy before Xavier's friend could help in finding him. We were in town and just around the corner from Suzy's apartment when I called her. Dax and Xavier were looking at me and trying to signal to me that I had to act as natural as possible so that she would not be suspicious of my call if she was with JJ. "Hey, Suzy. Are you home?""Yes, I am. What happened yesterday? You just left without saying a word to me or even picking up my calls when I called you. Did anything happen when you went to the toilet?"I was relieved when I heard that she was not convinced that I ran away because I saw her with JJ. "Yeah, I'm - I met an old friend in there and I was trying to get to her, but I already lost sight of her.""You could have said so, Lana. I was so worried about you. Where are you right now?"I looked at Dax and Xavier and stuttered. "I - I am at home. With Xavier and Dax."Suzy suddenly started crying on
The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 68- Sultry
LANA'S POVThe next morning, I woke up next to Xavier staring at me."Good morning," he smiled and kissed my forehead."Good morning baby," I looked at him and suspected that he might have been waiting for me to wake up so that we'd carry on where we left off last night. "You good?" "I'm good baby, and I slept like a baby. How are you feeling?" I got up and tied up my hair into a bun so that I'd prepare to take a shower."I'm good. I was watching you to make sure that you didn't run off on me."I looked at him and laughed. "You're unbelievable! Oh my gosh!" I took my pillow and threw it at him and got off the bed and dressed up so that I'd head out to the bathroom that was outside. He chuckled and got off the bed too. "Can I come with you?""Do you want to?" I looked at him and smirked while my hand was already at the doorknob. "Are you daring me?" He smirked and stood up with his dick hard as a rock.I couldn't help it but blush. "I dare you."I quickly turned the doorknob but bu
The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 67- Evocation
LANA'S POV As soon as I roared the engine to life and drove off, Suzy tried to call me but I didn't pick up. If I knew her 'Jay' was 'JJ', I would have tried to tell her why she was not supposed to be with him. And now that I had a picture of him sleeping with her in my mind, I felt like I was losing it. The very thought of his tongue on her repulsed me and I could not wait to get home and get Dax and Xavier to do something about this. "Lana, are you all right?" Xavier asked me when he saw me walking inside the living room. He was sitting on the couch with Dax, and it looked like they were having lunch."I saw JJ," I walked towards them. "What?" Dax exclaimed and got up from the couch. "He's Suzy's boyfriend, can you believe it?" I answered them, still unable to get the picture of them together off my mind. "I should have known when Suzy told me her boyfriend's name was Jay."It was as if I was there every time they made love and made each other cum. I wondered if he felt as good
The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 66- Girl's Day Out
SEPTEMBER 2022LANA'S POVSuzy and I finally had our lunch date. She was so happy when she saw me and we ordered our favorite food in our favorite lunch spot. It was everything that I wanted to do for months, but couldn't because I didn't know how to face her and continue lying on her face. She was the only person I was close to except Dax and Xavier. It made me happy to finally be able to be myself around her and not hide anything from her. It bothered me for months that I couldn't tell her about Dax and Xavier and the contract. "How are the brothers?" She winked. I giggled while trying to get a spoonful of my mashed potato gravy. "They are good boys.""I still wonder how it's like having two men all to yourself. You must tell me what it's like, Lana." "How about I leave you to wonder?" I laughed."No way, you will do no such thing! You must tell me about the sex!"I almost choked on my drink but I quickly had it under control and laughed. "Suzy, will you stop?"She leaned forwar
The Entanglent With The Russo Brothers 65- Back To Square One
LANA'S POVAngry, I picked up my phone and called Xavier after ending the call with Costa's lawyer. It was no coincidence that Xavier sent me a voice message about how he wants me to know that he loves me in case he didn't make it. He was with Costa when he died, and I needed to know what happened."Lana?" He answered."What happened to Costa? I know that you were with him."He was quiet for a moment before he answered. "So, you know?""I know. Why didn't you tell me?" "Because it wasn't the right time to tell you that, Lana." "He was my father, Xavier. You don't have any right to decide when I should know about his death.""I understand, Lana. But I didn't want to tell you before you got out of the clinic.""That's no excuse, and you know it. Now, tell me what happened."He sighed. "Lana, we both need our rest.""Should I ask Dax?""Fine. JJ shot him, the guy who -""The guy who raped me, I know his name. So, he killed him?""Yes, but I will find him, I promise." "oh, he killed hi
