[ Alessandro De Niro ]"Did you get any information on Chase?"Adam asked me once we made our way out of the hospital to my club.I shook my head feeling extremely frustrated upon the mention of my best friend who had been disappeared in the thin air. I tried reaching him by every possible means but it seemed he intentionally cut himself off from everyone, specially me."Aitana knows everything."He said in a morbid tone.It was my turn to snap my head at him in surprise.I crushed my fourth cigarette on the ash tray,"Did she tell you this herself?"I asked in a warning tone."She was afraid that you would be more depressed than you already are and she was tensed for his well-being.Liam Grayson's chidlren are the real target,unfortunately your wife and your best friends are his off spring and most potential heirs to his wealth.""Don't talk in riddles, Adam.I know you know more than you are telling me so speak up."I asked him impatiently."It's Robert Grayson."He sighed and I banged my
[ Alessandro De Niro ]The club was tight packed with the cheering crowd for the big bull,bodies reeking of alcohol, tobacco and sweat. I had once been to this kind of place in Mexico that too was eight years ago and since that day I promised myself that I would never step a foot in this shitty hell.Weird? I know but killing someone with a single bullet or two and smashing only for pleasure are two different things and I never believe on going for the latter."Boss,it's not safe for you to come here unarmed."Drake shook his head in disagreement of my decision to come here by myself."Believe me, I have seen worse,fought worst and survived miraculously,so we should better find that motherfucker Chase."I hissed under my breath while pushing bulky men out of my way."I think it's him."Drake pointed over to the ring where my dear friend sprawled on the sandy ground,face battered with black and red blotches on his once handsome and recognizable face which now resembled like a beehive.
[ Sophia ] I had a great time bonding with Alessandro's mother Lilliana.She was all sweet and gentle with me but I could still feel her hesitation around me,perhaps the terse relationship between the parents and son were the reason. I wanted to change it sooner. Alessandro gave me everything, I lost all hopes to feel and deserve when my Mom died and my father showed me his true colors. I had a plenty of time to think about our future with a baby on the way.I knew that I wished to spend the rest of my life being his wife and mother to his amazing chidlren. I wanted to build a home for us where no violence or the lust for power could cast a negative impact on our children. I didn't wish to give them the same childhood as mine. "Principessa..." Alessandro's familiar endearment brought me back from my dreamland and I found myself being pulled in the protective arms of my husband. "Where have you been for last two hours?"I asked pressing my face more on his chest.I became more addict
[ Alessandro De Niro ]"Would you care to explain?"I arched my brows at a battered Chase.He looked down at his hands which were resting on his stomach."It was my fault.Liam reached her under my watch,she could have died, Alessandro and there's no one else to be blamed."He sounded ashamed."If I've blamed you,trust me my dear friend your body would be laying cold six feet under the ground.You are nothing but a coward whore."I spatted coldly.He had abandoned me when I needed him the most."I am sorry Aless. "He muttered in a faint voice."Your coward ass should ask for Aitana's apology.That woman is sick worried for you."I shook my head in frustration."How's she now?"He asked me after a minute's silence."She's doing a fast recovery and in two days or three,they'll discharge her."I answered sitting on the small couch in his ward,"She's pregnant."I added intentionally,call me a total dick but I wanted him to feel bad for being reckless."She's is pregnant?"His eyes widened in shock
[ Aitana ]A weight lifted from my chest when Alessandro told me that Chase was fine but my heart felt a strange pain thinking of his miserable condition. He intentionally threw himself in the mouth of death. I had no one to call mine by blood but with him,I saw a faint hope to build a relationship,a sibling I always craved since mu brothers died.I wanted to see him but the main problem was my over protective husband. He barely let me step down from the bed except the times I had to use the bathroom otherwise he threatened the nurses to tie me on the bed and it started taking a toll over me."Ana, what is going inside this pretty little head of yours."Alessandro's raspy voice brought me back on the earth.I moved my eyes on him,who had an amused smile on his face but suddenly I remembered his betrayal during our make out,he left me unfinished.I glared at him murderously and looked away to show him a cold shoulder."Still mad over an orgasm, cara mia?"I couldn't miss the tease in his
[ Alessandro De Niro ]"Finally the sweet home."Aitana squealed stretching her arms to feel the air inside the living room of our house.She's right,it felt like home again as her steps entered in the non living and gloomy atmosphere of this house."Easy mio regina you're only given discharge from the hospital but they didn't say that you can go all ninza and hurt yourself."I wrapped my arms around her waist and easily pulled her on my chest."I can't just...it feels so good to be back here."She rested her head where my heart beat for her."I have shifted our bedroom downstairs temporarily,the left room beside the guestrooms."I told her and kissed her temple.She slightly tilted her head to give me a suspicious glance,"And the timeline of your temporay is?"She raised her brows."Until our baby turns one of two months old."I grinned down at her knowing how merrily she would take it."Oh my dear husband,it's so sweet of you but you know what else we should to until our baby turns three
[ Aitana ]I woke up in the arms of the most handsome man on the earth,the Italian mafia prince aka my husband Alessandro De Niro after an exhausting night. We made love to each other for the first time as it was very close to what two people in love with each other feels.It wasn't just a fuck from his side,the way he handled me like I was a fragile piece of art to be preserved with care.His eyes slowly opened and locked with mine,it was my turn to get embarrassed as he caught me staring at him.His hand which was working as his pillow beneath his head came to rest on my face."Good morning Mrs. De Niro."His groggy morning voice felt like electrifying waves to my ears."Morning Mr. Grayson..."I went on a mission to tease him and it seemed to trigger his typical stereotype narrative."Mr. Grayson?"He plopped his head on his palm as his elbow dug in the pillow."I can be Mrs. De Niro so why can't you share my last name?"I argued and watched his ears turning red."Oh hell no! Aitana Gray
[ Alessandro De Niro ]"Are you sure that Robert is back in the city and he will be meeting Tony for a drug deal?"I asked Drake who came up with a new and very positive information after ages of sniffing behind Robert Grayson."My sources told me so,"He spread a few photographs in front of me."These pictures are taken by my man at his secret base on the cliff.You can see Robert climbing out of helicopter. I don't where they left afterwards.The area was surrounded by his men who were heavily armed."I sipped my whiskey and stared at pictures, there was no doubt that Robert Grayson was back in the city."The deal is worth 10 million dollars.Robert needs money to execute a big plan.He'd definitely agree to meet Tony."Adam explained."Which means we must reach Tony before him and offer him a bigger price to ditch Robert."I concluded for them."That's our basic plan but if you have any specific plans in your mind then care to share with us."Chase,who was now in a much better condition s
[ Aitana ]The warm sunrays falling over my face forced me to open my eyes but I closed them instantly as they hit their sensitivity after a couple of hours' sleep.After a few moments, I tried to open them again and glanced over the digital watch on the nightstand. It showed 7:15 A.M. It was a Sunday means I'd be spending the day with my family."Go back to sleep, mio regina. You haven't slept properly in last few days." My husband's sexy morning voice made me realise that I was caged in his arms while our naked bodies pasted together.I recalled the fierce sex we had for the most of the night after being away from each other for two crazy weeks. It was a pure hellish torture for Alessandro as we were worse than animals when it comes to sex even after eight years of our marriage."I wish I can but will your little demons let me sleep peacefully?" I turned to face him, whose enchanting dark blue eyes met mine."Hmm..they're our little demons but they can't be blamed when their parents
[ Alessandro De Niro ]He stepped closer," Hand me over the key and I'll declare you my only heir after I die which isn't going to happen anytime soon but you'd have a great future.A dry chuckle left my throat."You will declare me as your heir?" I laughed that echoed in the dark celler."Yes, I will. You have my word, Alessandro." Irritation was visible on his face."What am I looking to you? A fool or a believer in good deeds thats pays in blessings, Liam Grayson?" My hand reached for a wine bottle from the nearest shelf."You're a smart man who doesn't think from your dick like most of the Italian mafias." He tried to flatter me but I found no reason to consider his offer."Preserved since 1995, nice huh. I wonder how it will react on my taste buds." I opened the cork of the bottle and gulped a good amount from it."Put it back on the shelf, Alessandro. I didn't invite you here to enjoy free wine." Liam lost his temper as per my plan."I am not stopping you from sharing whatever y
[ Alessandro De Niro ]"Fuck!"I slammed the broken chair on the concrete ground with so much force that it cracked into pieces. I was boiling in anger and a shameful feeling of helplessness. The bastard again fooled us. He wanted to continue this cat and mouse chase like he was enjoying my state.My face was covered with sweat even in the freezing temperature. It was the place where we got the signal from Drake's GPS, he had it hidden in his ear stud. All we found were the evidence of someome being held captive here. It had been four hours since I last communicated with Drake, we searched the nearby closed places but we were no closer to finding them and now, it simmered my brewing anger."Aless, we should take a break and sketch a new plan rather than wandering aimlessly in the streets. May be, we'd find another lead." Chase offered, it was past nine and they were already on the brink of giving up."You can go back and rest." I gripped the butt of my gun with such pressure that my f
[ Alessandro De Niro ]The tension brewing in the air and ticking of clock was a constant reminder of my failure as a mafia man. Liam proved my incompetence and this time he made me realise how immature I was since the beginning, I had taken orders from my uncle and then Stefano, I hardly did something on my own."Aless, we traced the location by tracking Drake's GPS." Chase informed me.I gripped the railing of balcony. My mood was depicting the dark sky. Liam managed to abduct my best soldier while I went for a wild goose chase. He beat me at every instance."Where is the location?" I asked him without faltering my gaze from the sky, for some reason, I found a little comfort by staring at the vast blankness."Where a rat like Liam can hide?""A shabby place, a closed fight club or an abandoned work shop if I am right at assuming." I craned my neck in his direction."Bingo! You got it right. The bastard has taken shelter in a closed bicycle workshop three miles from here but we have
[ ALESSANDRO DE NIRO ]"I don't know what are you talking about, Aless." The woman pretended to sound confused but she failed at it miserably."Oh please, Aunt, drop this act and tell us where is the Golden Box or Anita has her own ways of gutting the truth out of you." Chase said."I am not your Aunt, young man." She shot him a murderous glare. She hated being addressed as Aunt or any tag that reflected her aging."Mrs. Laura, please hand us over the box or I am well capable of breaking your bones and no one would find out what exactly happens in this room." Anita rolled up her sleeves.I could notice my aunt's forehead covered with sweat. She was scared but she was trying to hide it."Aunt, we're not here for any kind of violence. Anita won't lay a finger on you unless she receives my green signal. So, please give us the golden box and we'd set you free with no scratch on your skin." I used indirect threat to crack the stubborn lady."Are you threatening me, Alessandro?" She arched
[ Alessandro De Niro ] "What is brewing between you and Alyssa?" I threw a teasing glance at Chase who had been smiling like a teenager since we bade our goodbyes to the girls at the De Niro air strip from where Marcus picked them to drop them off safely at my parents' house. It was quite hard for me to convince my lady tigress to tame her wild side until she deliver our baby. "Are you talking to me?" Chase, who was in his own world, asked me with red cheeks like I had caught him in the act. "As far as I remember, I and Drake are already engaged and married, so it leaves only you in the bachelor bucket. Tell us, Chase, what's going on with you and your damsel in distress?" I arched my brows at him for a good explanation. "It's nothing that's your dirty little brain is processing, Aless. She's a nice girl and your wife has given me her responsibility. I am only following her orders. Alyssa hardly comes in front of me. In fact, she rarely leaves the confinement of her room." He said.
[ AITANA ] "What do you mean, you tracked down the lady who claims to have the golden box?" I asked Alessandro or I say no particular men present in the living room. "We found her, Ana." Alessandro's voice was calmer than last few hours like a storm has passed and breezes stilled. "You mean you found the woman who has the Golden Box?" I asked him again not able to believe it at first. "Yes, Aitana. Somehow we succeeded in tracing the number from which Liam received a call in the night that Alyssa mentioned. She's currently staying in Rome. Guess what? Alyssa was right about her ethnicity. "Chase said. Excitement was dripping from his tone. The hunt for the mysterious woman and Liam Grayson was no less than finding need in a heap of hay. "And how did you get access to Liam's person cell phone?" I narrowed my eyes in curiosity. As far as I remember, he never let anyone touch his cell phone. "We found it near the shore, it might fall accidentally from pocket during the attack." Dr
[ Aitana ]Hours rolled on, I was as bore as I could be in the balcony of Chase, looking down at the busy street. It was refreshing to feel the late evening breeze while watching the sun set. The ocean's view from afar was a more pleasant experience. It was deadbeat silent in my small space but the inside was on turmoil.Alessandro was making several phone calls in the living room. His pacing became furious sometimes while he cursed in Italian. Chase and Drake's condition was no different than Alessandro. They had been trying to track down my father in the Peru, he was spotted there, probably dealing with local drug dealers. It was his mega plan to escape step by step to distract us but he was one of my least problems.His men were out in the search of Liam's network in the city who were still active and keeping a close eye on us.I groaned in frustration. I had been doing nothing but browsing through my social media accounts and watching online videos on pregnancy. They kept me out
[ Alessandro De Niro ]"You look feasible, husband." Aitana roamed her hands sensually over my tailored suit and reached for my tie knot. Her hazy eyes were proof of the lust which was pooling in them."Don't start this game right now, Ana. I beg you or else, we won't be leaving this house for the next few days." I warned her as her delibarate moves were testing my patience. It had been over one and a half month since we last had sex and now it was taking a toll over me."I am not interested to leave either, Alessandro." She traced my jawline with her sleek long finger. I closed my eyes and tightened my grip around her waist to control myself from ripping her clothes and fuck her on the wall."Please, Ana...we need to go as for now." I begged her again."I know you want it too, Aless and I need you right in this moment. I miss your touches, I miss to feel you inside me. It's fucking two months, Alessandro." Desperation dripped from her words while she grinded her core on my already ha
