last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Most of the car ride was filled with Jayden giving Vito an update on all that had happened with his work since he’d been gone, nothing that I typically wanted to hear about. The less I know about what Vito does, the better it makes me feel about him leaving me to get it done.

With my head against the window feeling a little jet legged from having to get up much early to leave for the UK, I was exhausted and only watched all of the tress go by as we continued down some country road.

“Oh, and there’s an update on Shane’s case which I think you’ll both want to hear.” Jayden speaks from the back which did break through and get my attention, where I soon sit up and give him a look. “There has been an arrest made, Shane’s weird uncle Jeremy, the one you didn’t like at the funeral had been arrested and charged with Shane’s murder. I told you it was probably him!” He smiled over to me mostly, if I hadn’t of found out what really happened to Shane, I would have believed that but with what

    After sitting on the side of the road crying a little, Vito leads me back to the car and towards our new home. My head against the window again but this time, it wasn’t tiredness which flooded through me, but the intense gut-wrenching pain of grief. When my father was at his worst, I did wonder if I would arrive back from work one day and find him laying dead on the floor due to his days of abusing his body. Back then, it’s sad to admit that I had sort of accepted that fact and knew what to do and who to call when I found him. But now I could see the light at the end of the tunnel, and he was finally, getting better, I had silently told myself that I didn’t need to live in the fear of him passing away too soon, but I see how detrimental that had been for me now. “I need to talk to the head of security; will you be okay in the car?” Vito asks mainly looking over at me rather than Jayden, where I send him a nod before looking back out of the window whilst he leaves the car silent on

    Each person apart from Jayden began to share the same looks on their faces, utter shock on what they were hearing. I knew from Vito how dangerous and complex this last job of theirs was, they knew how much intense planning needed to go into this job to ensure none of them get hurt or arrested. I also wanted them to leave no stone unturned when going over each and every one of the details, I didn’t need anything happening to Vito, he’s all I got right now. “Are you sure we’re ready for this job to be at the end of the week, I mean we can’t fuck ass around with any job, but this one in particular, we can’t be too careful.” Buster said breaking the silence with the words of warning, Louis nodding his head in agreement whilst still stuffing his face with food. “When did you turn into a pussy Buster?! We have been planning this job for so many years now, if we don’t get up and do it, it’s never gonna happen!” Jayden exclaims seeming to be very pissed off that no one was jumping up and

    The next morning, I was stood in mine and Vito’s new gigantic bedroom getting ready and when I say this room is huge, I’m not over exaggerating! I thought Vito’s old house was the biggest house I had ever seen, but it appeared that I had lived an even more sheltered life than I once anticipated. You could probably fit four of Vito’s old houses into this place and still have much room left! I never had the chance to get the official tour last night due to Jayden going over what he wanted me to do about a hundred times so I was as clued up as I could be, but Vito promised when we get home after this job, the rest of the day will be showing me around the beautiful house. Now due to the nature of the job and what role I would be playing, I was stood in clothes I never thought I would ever again, my work outfit from the café. The black polo shirt with the café’s logo on the front sort of haunted me in some odd sense. I won’t deny that after hearing the café was shutting down and Vito e

    Sitting in the silent car on the way to the restaurant where all of this was taking place, I never allowed my mind time to worry about it all, I kept repeating the same plan which Jayden gave me over and over again in my head so I knew what to do without thinking about it much in the moment. The same street that I had walked down almost daily at one point soon filled my vision, the same people walking up and down it as each day before getting on with their lives. But one thing which made me sit in my seat frozen slightly was the sight of the café I had spent countless hours of my life working, the once happy filled building with the smell of fresh coffee and whatever treats we had in that day was replaced with broken building and a huge wooden block concealing the broken building. Different pieces of paper with the note from Kevin explaining why the café would never reopen but thanking each loyal customer that we had sat looking back at me. It was an odd feeling to pass by it as t

    Vito, Buster and Jayden waited ten minutes away from the restaurant in a little apartment Jayden had rented out during the weeks he had been stalking Henson. The countless hours that he sat right by the window watching Henson and taking note of all he did, people would think he was in love with the man he watched him for so long! But he knew if they were ever going to get their dream of fulfilling the last one big job, they had been planning for so many years, he would need to do something to stop the issue of Henson once and for all. Vito sat by that same window looking out into the busy street, his eyes scanning the surrounding area in case Henson’s men appear due to Henson catching wind of what was happening. While Buster sat on one of the tables playing around with the little handgun to pass the time whilst Jayden, paced up and down with his phone in his hand waiting for the text from Louis that Coraline had done what she needed to, to come through. “I can’t be the only one

    The more Louis’s question went around in my head, the more my brain kept screaming at me that being pregnant is the only thing which would cause all that I’m feeling to make sense! I had been feeling like this since the day before Vito and I left the villa to come here, at the time I thought I had just eaten something that my body didn’t like but now it’s been a few days, that theory doesn’t seem to be making much sense. The first time I was pregnant, it didn’t last long enough for me to even realise I was pregnant to begin to feel the symptoms. I know Vito and I had said we wanted children and after the miscarriage, we had discussed when we wanted it to happen but never this quickly. I know the big job is coming at the end of the week and after, Vito said that’s when we can finally, live our lives the way we should but that didn’t mean I should get pregnant right off the bat. “What if I am pregnant?” I ask mainly to myself, I knew it’s what we both wanted but not this soon, this

    Now there had been confirmation that I was indeed with child, the matter of how and when I was going to tell Vito was all I could think about. I knew I wanted to wait until after he had done the big job at the end of the week, I didn’t need him worrying about me when he’s in the situation of life and death but I also, knew how hard it’s going to be for me not to scream at him the first time we lock eyes. Every now and then, I would see Louis taking a look in the cars mirror as though he was staring at the people in the car behind us, each time he would get a little more tense than the last. Without uttering a word, he reaches into the glove compartment in front of me and pulls out some kind of gun, without looking away from the road, he plays with it before placing it into my lap. “Louis what the fuck?” I ask shocked looking down at the little metal death welding machine in my lap, I have never touched one of those things and to be frank, I never intended to do so. “I’m pretty s

    We spoke with Basilio for a couple of minutes mentally, deciding what we were going to do. Vito instructed that we leave him in the dust and head straight back to the warehouse like the plan had intended, but each time that I would look Basilio in the eyes, I could see how desperate he was leaving me standing at a huge crossroads. Vito didn’t want anything to do with his family and I understood why, but now I had just lost my father and still dealing with the gut-wrenching pain that brought, I couldn’t help but wonder if Vito was making a decision he’d regret sometime in the future when it’s too late. “We gotta go Coraline, we have to be at Hensons place in half an hour.” Louis tells me off to the side as we stood by the car, but still, I didn’t know if leaving this man would be the right thing, but let’s be honest, he’ll probably follow us like we caught him doing. Before we had time to make the decision ourselves, a black car speeding down the road and screeching to an abrupt ha

    8 months later: The bright lights of the sun streaming through the open windows cause my eyes to flutter open, feeling a little dazed at first, I look around and begin to panic at the scene. I was all alone in the huge bedroom before me, my mind of course going to the worst-case scenario as usual. Until a little note sat on the pillow beside me grabs my attention, it read: “I thought you could do with a little more sleep after the night you had, Lucio and I have gone downstairs to allow you some rest. Take as much time as you need, Vito x” With a smile at how sweet he was, I place the note to rest on top of the bedside table feeling the worry lift from my body. I barely had any sleep last night due to our son Lucio, having a rough night of his own. Vito kept asking if I wanted him to stay awake with me, but I knew at least one of us needed to be more alive this morning, but how nice he was that he took Lucio so I could get a little more rest. I gave birth to our beautiful son

    Vito walked the halls of the warehouse watching as his new men from Henson went on their rampage and took whatever they could carry and even more. To him, this was the last job he needed to do before he could get home to Coraline, the life which he wanted was so close snd even growing inside the woman he loved and there was nothing that was going to stand in his way to get it. “One of the vans have gone to the hideout boss, it was full to the brim, these men work fast that’s for sure.” Buster informs Vito rushing into the room, a smile filling Vito’s face as he looked around as more men walked in and out of the room. “Working ahead of schedule, just how I like it.” He smiled crossing his arms over his chest, his mind full of all the ideas of what Coraline and him were going to do with all this money and what he was could to do for their unborn child. “Did you hear Jay; this place will soon be cleared!” Buster cheered over to their friend letting him know the good news, Jayden al

    My legs could have buckled from under me as I began to read further down the page and fully absorb what was written, such confusion, anger and worry filling my entire emotions. Written in a rushed sort of manner stood what appeared to be a list of things Jayden had to do, none were simple or normal when it came to list such as, get the car fixed, grab some groceries etc. Before me stood the list. 1: Poison Coraline and blame Owen 2: Have Vito kill Owen off 3: Kill Adam Hart 4: Have Vito kill Henson 5: Kill Vito on the job 6: Grief with Coraline 7: Have her all to yourself. Each item on the list began to get even more sinister as the list continued, my heart sinking to my feet when I realised that Jayden had been behind all of the horrible things which had been happening recently. I knew right when it happened that it couldn’t have been Owen that poisoned me, none of it made any sense and was impossible to happen! But what also hurt to see, Jayden had been behind the de

    The next morning soon rolls around quicker than I would have liked, I knew the job was looming close with each day, but now it was here, I was riddled with worry. Vito kept repeating that he had gone over each detail so throughly that there was no way anything was to go wrong, but I also knew not to underestimate the police, they could be way ahead of him without Vito even knowing. As we stood in the kitchen getting the last things ready, I stood with my arms crossed and my hands shaking from fear, I worried this would be the last time I’d be able to see him ever and after the news I had told him yesterday, it cut deeper than anyone would expect. “Alright, the men are waiting three streets away from the warehouse with Buster keeping them in check, we have to be there in forty minutes to ensure we hit the place in the window where the security are switching.” Jayden says going over what he had said so many times over the past few days, I’ve heard it so much, I could probably go wit

    The room dropped to silence I had never heard before, my heart in my mouth as I looked to Vito to see his reaction. I knew he wanted to be a father but now was not the time we had discussed; it would hurt so deep if he told me he wasn’t happy. But also, with the death weapon which is in his hand and pointed at Louis’s head, I was more than worried to see where this was going to go. “I only found out yesterday after I went to the restaurant, I wanted to tell you the minute that I saw you, but I knew after how the last pregnancy ended, you’ll be a little more worried about me which is something you don’t need walking into the job tomorrow.” I begin to say breaking the silence when Vito didn’t go to move or say a single word. “I wouldn’t know myself if it wasn’t for Louis, yesterday, we didn’t stop the car because I wanted to look at the scenery, we had to stop the car as I was throwing up on the side of the road which is when Louis asked if I was pregnant. I took a test and I am.” I t

    After managing to successfully, avoid slipping up to Vito and telling him about the baby for the first half of the morning, we pulled up at the huge warehouse which felt like a second home at this point, so Vito can have the last meeting with the guys before the big job tomorrow. Climbing out the car with my huge water bottle in hand hoping water was going to help the sickness ease, I walked up the steep stairs hand in hand with Vito to find it was only Louis waiting there throwing a ball in the air and catching it. “Alright boss and Mrs Boss, Buster and Jayden are running late, something about a crash on the motorway, I tend not to listen to explanations much.” Louis said sort of explaining why the others weren’t here but at the same time, giving us no information at all. “They better hurry up, we have a lot to go over about tomorrow especially, now we have more men on the team to keep in line.” Vito grumbles a little annoyed that we had to wait around for the others to show bu

    We remained at Henson old shop for the rest of the afternoon, Vito explaining to each man what was going to happen with the job and what he expected of them. To my happiness, no other men were killed as they all played ball, but Vito was quick to remind them what was to happen if they either didn’t turn up for the job or did anything to backstab or disrupt him and let’s just say, neither way sounded great for these guys. After the meeting, Vito took us home telling the rest of the guys to meet him at the warehouse tomorrow, whilst we went home to Vito’s huge house that I had yet to be given a tour of. Still being covered in blood from all he had done today, Vito takes a shower as soon as we arrived home leaving me alone to get ready for bed. But now I was alone with my thoughts, I couldn’t help but stand there in such a state of shock for all which had happened in the space of a day. I went to the restaurant and helped them with their Henson problem, finding out soon after that I’

    As soon as the guy dropped to the floor, the room shifted even more as some men even backed as far away from Vito as they could well others, wanted to seem tough and stand their ground looking right at him. “Now we had a thought, Henson had a lot of men under his payroll, some who relied on him to pay their bills, my wife here worried that some of you would grow hungry without him. Which is why as her doting husband, I was sure to set her mind at ease. I have an enterprise and due to recent events, the biggest one in the town. You guys are out of work due to his death, and I have an endless stream of jobs going, do we know where I’m going with this?” Vito asks looking over at the men making it seem as though they had a choice, but we all knew what would happen if they refused to work for him. “I ain’t working for you!” Another man shouted off to the side, where it was now Jayden’s turn to do some crowd control and ended the man’s pleas. “It appears the men which Henson hired wer

    We soon arrived at an office type building right in the centre of London, the busy street offering little to no privacy of what was going in and out of this building. Henson must have not seemed to care what people saw of him if the centre of his operation was right in the centre of the city, or he felt untouchable due to his ego. Pulling up the car around the back of the building in what appeared to be the loading area, Vito reaches into the back and pulls out a gun concealing it within his inside jacket pocket, whilst the gun he had pulled on his father was also in another pocket, how many guns does he think he’ll need?! “Alright Pequeño, you’ll be coming in with us.” Vito explains which certainly, was new information for me. Throughout all of this, Vito had always ensured that I was no where near the danger, but now I’m walking into this. “You’ll be right next to me the entire time and Louis.” He continues whilst the guys begin to get out of Louis’s car beside us, but I was sti
