Teagan POV.It has been four weeks since I left Antonio. He has called and text hell he even turns up at my house every day, but I don’t respond or answer the door. Simon and Marco are staying with me.The only thing I did do was send Gianni and Antonio the video that Carmella sent me. What they do with that is no concern of mine. In the end, I blocked both their numbers and have begun the process to sell the house and move back to Jackson.“Bobbi. You need to eat, sweetheart.” I look up at Marco and he looks concerned, but I just stand silently and move to the kitchen and sit down. The mood is sombre. Simon is working on his laptop.We have both agreed that we both have to go into hiding. Well, I don’t care. I never want to see any of the Moretti’s again. I will help him get away when I move. Marco has said he won’t leave my side, but I can’t have him follow me, not without blowing my cover.“Thank you Marco, this is really good. It’s almost as good as mine.” I say, dipping my spoon
Antonio POV.Four weeks, four agonising weeks I have tried to get through to her. When she sent me and Gianni that video that cunt sent to her, I was fucking livid and mortified. The bitch had seen us at the casino and handed me a drink. Like the idiot I am, I drank it, not realising it was fucking laced with drugs.However, I was lucid. I knew what I was doing. It was only when I watched the footage when I saw Carmella look directly into the camera when she spouted the bullshit about being pregnant. I didn’t realise she set me up. She even smirked as she moaned, knowing damn well she would destroy my relationship with my tiger.But what the footage didn’t show was after she spilled that bullshit, there was more to that conversation. I pulled out of her and slapped her hard. How could I have been so fucking blind? I told Carmella that the thing growing in her belly if there was even a baby was nothing to do with me. Then everything went black.When I got back home, I was raging. Carme
TRIGGER WARNING, PLEASE READ AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION!Teagan POV.I wake up to a pounding in my head. I try to move to reach the back of my head, but I can’t move my arms. My eyes snap open and I look down. I’m tied to a metal chair. My wrists and ankles restrained.I look around the room and know I’m in some kind of interrogation room. The walls are painted red and the floor is wet. My eyes focus on the door that is closed. I turn my head and see a stainless steel table by a sink.I see what is on that table and I scoff. Like hell will I break? Trying to escape is futile. I’m cuffed and I can’t break these restraints. I lean my head back and look at the ceiling.The door opens and I keep my eyes on the ceiling. Knowing who it is that has entered the room. I will not break. I am trained for this.“Bobbi, look at me.” I sigh before I chuckle and look at him. He looks like shit and I laugh. I don’t say anything to him as he walks closer to me. His hands are balled into tight fists, his k
Antonio POV.She is the daughter of Maria DeNucci. What have I done? Gianni grabs me up to my feet, my head buzzes as I watch as someone dressed all in black carries her away. I shake my head as I run after them, shooting the cartel in the process.“STOP THEM!” I scream over the gunfire as I see Gianni shooting as well. I see three of my men take off after her. When she does the unthinkable. She shoots them in the head. One bullet each as I watch the helicopter take off.I roar in anger and pain as I’m shot. I go down when I see the person walk towards me with the gun pointed at my head as I clutch my shoulder. I pant, lift my gun and fire only for the clip to be empty. I laugh as I see the dark dot in the sky get further away.“Give my regards to the devil.” The man speaks when he suddenly screams and I see a flash of tan and black fur maul the fucker, ripping his throat out. Thank god for Lucifer.The men in black retreat and hightail it out of the compound. The smell of smoke and t
Teagan POV.I wake the sunlight streaming through the open curtains and a gentle sea breeze fills my senses. I look around the unfamiliar room. The walls are white with mirrored furniture. The mirrored four poster bed has sheer white curtains tied to the bedposts. A TV mounted on the wall opposite the foot of the bed. The sheets are white, soft and clean.Where the hell I am? I sit up and wince as I lean against the headboard. My thigh was killing me from where Antonio stabbed me. My fingers ache as they have been reset and my face feels tight and tender.I know I probably look like I’ve been hit by a truck, but I’m alive and I have the cartel to thank for getting me out of there.The door opens and I look at the woman that enters the room. She sees me awake and runs out, no doubt to tell them I’m awake.There is a photo frame next to the bed and I choke on a sob, looking at it. It was my mom, my dad and me when I was a baby. Their smiling faces were full of happiness, staring back at
Teagan POV.Looking at my aunt and uncle as they move towards me. The tears fall. I try to stand and my father helps me stand just as my aunt wraps me in her arms and my uncle wraps his arms around us both.“I’m so sorry for not telling you. I’m so fucking sorry we didn’t get to you in time.” She says in between sobs and I sob onto her shoulder.“It’s ok, I’m ok.” I say more to myself than her. I know I should be pissed, but I can’t be. She was protecting me. She is my family. I suppose everyone in this room is. She pulls back and moves as my uncle comes into view.“I was so fucking scared when I took you out of there.” My eyes widen and I knew I recognised that voice when I got into the helicopter.“It was you? You got me out?” I need clarification, and he nods his head.“Yeah sweetie, it was me. Thank you, by the way, for watching my back when I got you out.” He smiles at me and I smile back. That’s right, I shot three men as he ran with me.I move back and look at my uncle and then
Teagan POV.All three of their heads snap up and I blow out a breath as I watch all three. Carmella is screaming to be let go, Langton looks ready to piss himself and Gianni. well, he is the calmest of the three.I watch as my dad steps forward, but José stays by my side.“Alejandro, let me go. Baby, whatever it is, we can make it work.” Carmella shrieks out like a damn banshee. I watch as my dad ignores her and moves towards Langton, watching him before he moves to Gianni.“Baby, please!” she shouts, but he just chuckles, shaking his head.“I am not your baby. Did you honestly think I would allow you, a whore, to be my woman? There is only one woman I want, and she isn’t you. You are delusional to have believed that. But you did come in handy, especially to my men. I will say this Carmella, you played your role well, but not well enough.” He tells her and I just sit there watching. She sobs, hanging her head.“Tell me Carmella. Did you achieve what you set out to do?” he asks her, an
Antonio POV.It has been six months since the cartel took her and we have not been able to find her or Gianni. I can only assume Gianni is dead and, well, Teagan is with her father, no doubt planning another attack. The compound has been repaired and security has been upgraded. I have recruited more men, but the mansion is still too quiet.Lucifer has not left my side, and I know he is missing her, just like I am. Once word got out that the heir to the DeNucci family had been taken, the other families joined in the search, even the Bratva joined in the search.So far nothing, we have scoured all of Mexico and Sicily but nothing. It is like they have fled the damn planet.Since the attack, I have dismissed all the whores from my service and got myself clean and become stronger. During the day I’m kept busy but the nights are the longest. Her scent is no longer in the mansion and so it is hard to shut off. I know she will be safe with her father but still I would give anything to see he
