J checked the time again: nearly 6 in the nor int already. Only a couple hours since we escaped. There was no time.The entire apartment hallway smelled of cigarette smoke and booze and trash littered the floor.My belly churned with nausea. Hours had passed as we waited in a small hallway of the dingy apartment we were directed to while a man loudly worked.I had to pay nearly all the gold I had except for the watch and some small earrings while Andy had paid half of the cash that Matt had given to her to the man in order for us to get new passports, documents and IDs and new identities in a short amount of time. Andy was giddy with excitement beside me, near shaking.“After this, we're free, Alicia. Can you believe it?”She was much more excited than I was, I only felt worse as time went in. I was nervous and paranoid about

Alicia’s POV Five years later“Bye Emily, send my love to Harry!” I said in my curated English accent and waved goodbye to Emily, my coworker who dropped me off with her tiny fire engine red car.“See you Alice, enjoy your weekend!”I smiled, waving at her until her car disappeared down the road before I let my hand fall. I let out a sigh, checking my phone for any extra texts and calls. Most of the texts I had were from my coworkers wishing each other a happy weekend.I would have never believed my life would end up like this. In the past I had a shitty job with Daya and hid away, afraid and wary to be seen. Now I work as a secretary, mingled openly , and made friends.

Alicia’s POVA lump formed in my throat as I looked at my father's gravestone. His name is clearly written amongst his achievements and flowers. It was as lavish as someone of his position, filled with flowers and garlands but still a grave nonetheless.Guilt and regret filled me to the brim. I hated that I wasn't able to see him before he died. I hated that I couldn't talk to him for fear of my safety and his. He died without seeing me or my sons, his grandsons.I reached out for my boys, to hold their hands. They wouldn't hesitate to do the same and I knew it. Yet all I grasped was thin air.What? I turned to the side to search for them only to find neither of them by my side. Where were they? Where on earth had they gone.“Dante? Ash?” I called out. But the graveyard held no sounds. Panic sank into me. As I turned around. Every corner I looked at they weren't there.“Ash?” Suddenly the entire place looked vast and wide. What happened to Andy? My sons? Where on earth were they?“We

Alicia's POV By the time we were done with unpacking, it was almost the designated time Jason had told me the driver would arrive. Entering my temporary roomI changed to a simple black sheath dress and a pair of matching flats before entering the children's bedroom to wake them up.“It's time to wake up.” I whispered. Once they were fully awake and alert I got them prepared, helping them wear the clothes I'd picked out for them for this occasion.“Where are we going mom?” Dante asked, always the more outspoken one while Ashford didn’t bother saying anything, simply staring at me with the question written all over his face. I crouched down to their level, meeting their curious gazes. Leaning in, I kissed both of their foreheads before cupping their cheeks.“Today” I said, giving a small rueful smile as grief settled in on me, “We are going to send your grandfather off.”Flashback:I closed my eyes to try to quell the growing headache. Exhaustion filled my eyes, but it was nothing com

Alicia’s POVI looked up at the cloudy sky, meeting the gate of the mansion my father owned for the first time. Dante and Ashford were mesmerized, looking through the windows with open awe and wonder. The solemn silence had faded and the mood had lightened thanks to them. I didn't mind their sudden enthusiasm, not when I felt the same in my own way.Once we drove in I saw how truly large the place was. The road seemed to go on for miles, with large lawns stretched out though that seemed to last forever. I nearly had to purse my lips from shock. So this was where he had been living this whole time.“Mommy, mommy look, it's huge.” Dante spoke in a low whisper, looking at me with a toothy grin that reminded me a bit too much of his predecessor. Pushing away those thoughts, I reached out to ruffle his hair. “Yes, yes it is.” I murmured.“This was where your grandfather lived.” I whispered to them, meeting their eyes full of awe. Despite the morose and dull melancholy this visit held, t

They led me and my sons through the labyrinth of halls until we reached a place.“This was his study.” Ashley whispered to me right as Jason opened the door. There were people already seated there, the older woman that glared at me included.While Jason, and Ashley moved forward , I stayed back, sitting in the back row of seats with my sons. Despite Jason's insistence I still doubted that he had left anything for me. I was only here as an obligation.The lawyer sat in front of the desk with the will presumably in his grasp. After looking at all of us, he nodded.“Now that all Mr Stevens close relatives are here, we can now commended the will reading. The will reads as follows;To my only son Jason, I hand over the majority of my property and my responsibilities to ensure that his mother lives a good life.”I looked at Jason who nodded, as though he had already expected it. The will reading continued while I listened throughout, reading all their expressions.Ashley got her trust fun

Mikael's POV"Mikael."Cleo's body was sweaty as she moved off of me and I turned to glare at Magda who had interrupted us.Of course, like usual, Magda was unconcerned with how I wished to not be interrupted and just barged in whenever she wanted."Good afternoon Magda," Cleo greeted placidly, although I sensed annoyance in her words as she wrapped the fur coat I'd given her last week as a birthday present over her nude form.Magda barely gave the redhead assassin a glance and entirely focused her gaze on me."Do you remember Senator Duncan?"I raised a questioning brow at her."The FORMER senator. Yes." Then I turned to Cleo and waved my hand and she rolled her eyes but stood up and began to walk out of the study. After she was gone, I turned to Magda and asked in Italian, "What happened this time?""The senator is dead," she informed me which wasn't surprising at all. After all, I had already known of his death a week ago."Is that all? That's old news Magda." I sighed."I'm gettin

K. Alicia’s POV“Thank you so much Andy,” I told her in a solemn voice as we walked back to the house. I couldn't deny that I was still shocked at the turn of things, but the fact that I had gotten out thanks to her was the only silver lining.Dante was snoring peacefully in my arms as I carried him while Ashton was in Andy's arms. They were both asleep now, and neither if us were eager to wake the up, especially after the tumultuous day we'd had.Both of them had been under so much stress that they didn't deserve it from the moment I was arrested. They had followed me to the police station and had spent most of the time crying and yelling at the policemen to free me. Despite being so close, they were blocked from seeing me and I could only watch them look at me anxiously and try to appease them. It hurts my heart that I was locked in a cell unable to reach them and give actual comfort.Guilt flooded my chest. I was responsible for this. If I hadn't come back and gone to the funeral

Dante’s POV Two years later: Dad Mik always had the best stuff. I heard the signal from his fingers. The click. And Ash and I immediately closed our ears. The sound of a loud boom reverberated in the air and the field suddenly burst into chaos. It was glorious to watch. The bomb decimated everything it had been wrapped about. So cool, I Wanted to scream at the top of my lungs. But Dad Mik had said we should be quiet or else Mom would– “MIKAEL SERRANO‼” I Swallowed. Mom’s screech sounded like trouble. I was glad it wasn’t me and Ash and I exchanged glances to commiserate with each other. Dad Mik looked a little pale but he smirked a little as Mom came barely a second later. She turned round the corner and advanced on us as we stood at the edge of the large field next to the garden. We rushed to stand and dust their hands and clothes, looking innocent as Mom strided as gently as she could with a full and round belly. I really wasn't sure about how pregnancies work, but

Alicia’s POVThe knocking didn’t stop. My head pounded from the force of it. I stumbled to the door, bleary-eyed from lack of sleep. I opened the door to find Andy, her face etched with worry, holding a sleeping Bella. Magda followed close behind, her expression stern."What were you thinking, Alicia?" Andy demanded, her voice low but firm. "Leaving the house again in the middle of the night?"I rubbed my eyes, trying to shake off the sleep. "What are you talking about?"Magda's voice was sharp. "Do you know you nearly caused chaos this morning? Mikael nearly ran mad searching for you. Acker had to calm him down. And they nearly fought."My heart sank. I had no idea Mikael had been searching for me. "I...I just needed some air," I stammered.The guilt pricked at the edges of my consciousness again. This time I had caused more trouble just by leaving. I was foolish. I lowered my gaze in remorse.Andy's expression softened slightly. "Alicia, you can't just disappear in the middle of th
The Mafia Kings Want their Woman Back Haunted

But it wasn't just the nightmare that had left me shaken - it was the crushing weight of my own guilt.As I lay there, trying to catch my breath, I couldn't shake the image of Cleo's face, twisted in a cruel grin, and Cross's gleaming green eyes. My nightmares were haunting. They taunted me with the reminders of the mistakes I’d made. My own oversights were massive.But it was my own actions that haunted me. I had tried to kill Acker and Mikael, the two men I loved. The thought sent a wave of self-loathing crashing over me.How could I have been so blind? So wrong? The guilt was suffocating, making it hard to breathe. I felt like I was drowning in my own shame.

The Mafia Kings Want their Woman Back An unexpected end
Acker’s POV This was unexpected. I exchanged a glance with Serrano after seeing Cleo Abrams breathe her last breath. The syringe in my hand was empty and I dropped it on the ground where it lay to rest beside the pale corpse of the woman who had sought to use it at her weapon and had inevitably ended up dead by it. "How is she?" The words left my lips without preamble as I gazed at Alicia’s shivering form wrapped in the Italian Don’s arms. A part of me stirred with jealousy at the sight but I let it go. She belonged to him as much as she did to me. "Asleep for now. Or rather unconscious. She’s quite the dramatic one isn’t she? Cried herself to sleep just like that," Serrano tutted as though he was angry with her but in fact I could tell the relief in his face. I felt the same way too. In the end we had somehow neglected her. Of course it was just a stroke of luck that we figured out who it was at the last minute that had caused such troubles on our lives. It started aft
The Mafia Kings Want their Woman Back The Ugly Truth
Cleo’s POVI had always been a survivor.From the first time I knew what death was, I had always been a survivor.An orphan girl, with no one to depend on but herself.I knew my skills long before I could understand them; my beauty was a privilege I welcomed.It helped me get away with things when I was younger and I learnt that a smile and little tilt of my head would help whenever one of the other kids accused me of stealing their belongings. None of the stupid nuns cared that I was never doing chores on time because I’d act so innocent and my cherubic expression gave me a fucking sweet pass.The attention always made me feel powerful and the way I got away with so much made the other kids either fear me or want to be my friends so they could benefit from it.As I got older I began to notice how much stares the boys would give me more than the other girls. Even the adult men weren’t far from trying to act like they were vying for my attention. And so I discovered another use for my
The Mafia Kings Want their Woman Back Birthday blues
Alicia’s POVI stared out the window, my eyes tracing the outline of the trees as they swayed gently in the breeze. It was my birthday, a day that should have been filled with joy and celebration. Instead, I was trapped in this prison, a captive of the two men I had once loved.The sound of the door opening broke the silence, and I turned to see Andy walking in, a bright smile on her face. But it was what she was holding that really caught my attention - baby Bella. I felt a surge of emotion as Andy handed her over to me, and I held her close, feeling a sense of peace wash over me.Bella peered up at me curiously, her big eyes sparkling with innocence. I felt a pang of guilt for putting her in this situation, for bringing her into a world filled with danger and uncertainty. Perhaps I wasn’t the best one to take care of her. Perhaps I should have given her to a loving family."Thank you for taking care of her," I said to Andy, my voice awkward with emotion.Andy's expression softened,

Mikael’s POVShe was different. She looked like a wounded animal. My left grasped Dante’s shoulder gently. It was an assurance that our sons had returned to us. And a promise that this wasn’t for nothing.Madden at the very least was able to contain his emotions unlike myself. His voice came out like a crack of a whip. “Take her to her room. There won’t be any chance of her escaping, do you understand?”“Yes Don.” The men chorused.Yet I didn’t feel sane. I felt like I wanted to kill something. I felt like I wanted answers.…The sound of the clock ticking grounded me from spiraling in the study. I listened while seething with anger as Magda and Javier delivered their report.Bella, the newborn baby that had been caught along with Alicia and our boys, was Cross' and Zendaya's child. And to make matters worse, Alicia had already obtained a birth certificate that stated she had adopted the baby.That baby was currently in the care of a bewildered Andy who was mourning her friend’s acti
The Mafia Kings Want their Woman Back Runaways Caught
Alicia’s POVI crept out of my motel room, my heart racing with every creak of the floor. In a few short hours paranoia had become my constant companion, and I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being watched. I just needed to grab some snacks from the store next door, but even that simple task felt like a risk.As I browsed the aisles, my eyes wandered to the TV playing in the corner of the store. The news anchor's voice was a distant hum until I saw the footage of the warehouse explosion. It was on the news.My breath caught in my throat as I watched Cross Serpenti's face flash across the screen. His death was confirmed and the news anchor continued with stating all the known crimes the Serpenti Mafia had committed. He deserved to die and that was certain.The cashier's muttered comment about "those mob people" and how easy it must be to have their kind of money barely registered. My mind was reeling with the implications of what I'd just seen. Acker and Mikael were still alive.
The Mafia Kings Want their Woman Back Betrayal Hurts
Acker’s POVToday had not gone as fucking expected.I tried to hold back all the thoughts swirling in my head as we left the police officers and flashing sirens behind.It appeared to be a terrible dream. But it wasn’t over yet.The scent of burning and flames was in the air still. I must have inhaled a lot of smoke in there, I thought with disgruntlement as I gave the orders for us to return. My throat hurt badly enough that speaking was a chore I didn’t feel the need to indulge in. Serrano sat silently beside me and I knew it had to do with none other than her. Our woman. And supposedly the one that betrayed us.His hands gripped the phone that Cross had thrown at us tightly. That the Serpenti Don was dead finally was good. We had watched his… body, for lack of a better word, being carried out. He was charred beyond repair. Not even a lick of unburnt flesh on him and he had died in pieces, the explosion tearing him into chunks that had to be pieced together.It had been by the skin
