View MoreBONUS SCENE *********Since we started with Rachel and Mason I thought it would only be fair to end our journey with them as well don't you think? :) but let's see it like this. They have a daughter and a sister…what do you think those two are up to a decade or two later??*********Rachel and Mason 25 years into marriage "Mom! Mila is coming by to get me in a few minutes! Can you tell your son to leave me alone so I can get ready?"I chuckled at my daughter. She was almost 26 years old but Harry still tries to be the overprotective brother even though she just wants him to leave her alone so she can find a boyfriend.But to her disappointment, Mason encourages his son and even helps him whenever a boy comes around our house.Well too bad for them. Rebecka is my daughter through and through. Her sassy side, her looks, everything. "Mason, can you please for once tell Harry to go out with his own friends? You know I want grandbabies at some point."Mason was sitting right next to me a
Epilogue A FEW YEARS LATER Vicky's POV "Sid! Come downstairs and bring your brothers with you please, dad will be home any minute!""Okay, mom!"As you can see, Sidney is still the perfect child even at 21 years. The same could not be said for her brothers. Only 6 months after our reunion Devin proposed and of course, I accepted without hesitation. We got married a month later and our wedding was a smaller ceremony because we were in a hurry. I was pregnant. A few months later we got the news that there were two babies, not one. And add some more months and we got two little boys who looked exactly like their father and even now, at almost 7 years they are the spitting image of Devin. And not just in looks either. They have his mischievous character as well. But I can't say I regret anything. I love my family just the way it is.A few minutes later our children rush from upstairs and immediately start to help me prepare the table for dinner.Devin still runs the organization but now
Chapter 16 (Devin's POV)GUYS! I have a daughter!Almost a grown up daughter.When I first saw her standing next to Vicky I didn't even realize little details that pointed towards me being her father.What I saw was only that she was the spitting image of her mother, except for her hair color. I now realized it was the same as mine.The anger I felt was boiling and I was barely holding back my sarcasm when I asked Vicky who Sidney's father was. Until she brought me back to reality by telling me to take a closer look. And like I said, that's when little details started to pop out. Her eyes, her dimpled smile, and when I looked a bit closer the dead giveaway sign was staring back at me. A perfect replica of my mole, in the same spot where mine was.And when she stopped forward to shake my hand, my legs gave way and I was on my knees.There were only two persons that would ever be able to bring me to this position and in such a vulnerable state. One was the love of my life and the other
Chapter 15 (Vicky's POV)A FEW DAYS LATER Okay. A little help would be nice right now.How do you explain to your 15-year-old daughter that her father was actually alive and even in the same town as you two are living in?I guess there is no instruction or even a nice way. You just need to pull off the band-aid.Let's do this."Sidney! Honey! Can you please come here for a moment?"When I say my hands were sweating and shaking like a leaf in the wind I am not exaggerating at all.Sidney was pretty much the perfect child. Well except for her stubborn moments, I guess. But mostly she doesn't argue with me, she does what she's told to do, and does well in school. I've never even been called to school for any kind of problem.But I guess we could describe this news as a bomb being thrown at her already unstable life.But she deserved to know the truth and have a chance to choose whether she wanted to meet her fathers and have a relationship with him or not, and most of all, Devin deserve
Chapter 14 (Devin's POV)A few hours earlier.The time has come.I needed to make sure, my brother doesn't get married to that conniving bitch.And the only way to do that was if I came back into the land of the living.It was just me, my mother, and Gabriel going to the wedding that would never ever happen if I had a say.As we approached the hotel where it would all be held I spotted the devil's spawn right away and did everything in my power to avoid her.But then out of nowhere, a man approached us.He was vaguely familiar to me, but I couldn't put a name to his face right away."Me., Mrs., could I ask you to accompany me please?"As he spoke it struck me."You are Mason right?"He looked at me like a second head was growing on my shoulders."I won't even ask how you know my name because I have a feeling I wouldn't like the answer. So yes. My name is Mason."I gave him a nod and motioned for him that we would follow him.Before we went upstairs though I gave Gabriel an order to st
Chapter 13 (Vicky's POV)WE ARE GETTING CLOSER….Well, I guess we need to do some catching up.So here are the things you missed.My best friend Aron finally met his soulmate and he could not be happier.And honestly, she is the perfect match for him.I still remember the day when he brought her into my restaurant for the first time.Me being me I gave him crap and tried to make him look as bad as possible in front of Becky, but what my stories did was the opposite. It made her like him even more and in the process, made me like her even more. I saw it there and then, that they were perfect for each other. Of course, those two idiots needed a few more weeks before they came to the same conclusion. Also, Aron's mother tried to ruin everything good in between and she almost succeeded. Thank God Aron pulled his head out of his ass just in time and got Becky back with a grand gesture that I might have had a hand in.Before them, though there was Mason and Rachel, now that's a bit more com
Chapter 12 (Devin's POV)"How are things with businesses Gabriel? Any resistance left from owners to go to legal ways?"I was sitting in my office with my right-hand man Gabriel sitting right next to me."No man. We took care of everything so now every last one of our previous businesses is put on legal ground."That was news I loved to hear.Since I took over the mafia I have done everything to put us on the map as legal business owners and so far I've been doing a good job, and it was all thanks to Gabriel and Macy and all their support and help. Also my mother. She was working with Macy in one of our smaller companies. Its main production was make-up and everything related to it.So it could one day easily cooperate with my family's business which I hope goes as predicted into my brother's hands before we come clean about us being alive.There were still more things to be discussed but for the next few topics I needed to make sure the room was safe."Are we safe here?"Gabriel didn
Chapter 11 (Vicky's POV)A few years later"Sidney! Hurry up pumpkin! Nana will be here any minute!"It was one of our usual Monday mornings.Sidney was a heavy sleeper and that girl loved her sleep.So when I managed to wake her up in the mornings I didn't expect any good mood from her. At least not before noon.She was already 10 years old and she was a pain in my ass.I love her wholeheartedly but where she was a spitting image of me in the looks, she was her father's daughter characteristically. Stubborn, sassy, and has a wicked sense of humor already. "I am coming, mom! Why don't you take me to school? And why don't we ever spend the afternoon outside?"Here we go again."Sidney. I've told you. I have my restaurant to take care of and whether you like it or not your identity should be kept a secret. Your father came from a wealthy family and people hurt others when money is in the game. And I made a promise the day I gave birth to you…""I know, I know. That you would never let
Chapter 10 (Devin's POV)You know that feeling in your stomach that's telling you something important is going on somewhere but you have no idea what it could be?Well, this feeling has been bugging me the whole day long already.My life in general is starting to get better.I am waiting for Gabrial to arrive so we can take the report up to the boss's office. Thank God recently there was only legal business to take care of. Oh right. I am the boss's right hand alongside Gabriel and I must admit we make quite a good team.There was still no trace of Vicky or her whereabouts. I started to suspect someone from inside the organization didn't want me to find her. So while I was waiting for Gabriel I went through everything I knew about Vicky so far. And sadly it wasn't much.I was completely engrossed in my data and didn't even realize Gabriel walked up to me. A deadly mistake if it was someone else. Someone from the rival gangs around London perhaps."Didn't I tell you to drop this issue
Chapter 1 (Rachel's POV)It was another rainy day in London.Nothing new.I was born in London, so rain to me was something that's almost a must every day.But when I woke up at 6am this morning, I had no idea it would be raining in my life as well.I was sitting in my office, going over some papers for my boss and waiting for my lunch break.See, I was just an ordinary secretary in a huge law firm but I didn't care.I liked my job.The only thing I didn't like was my boss.He was a sleeze bag that groped me every time he passed my desk.So a few days ago, I complained about him to our HR team.I should know by now a good lawyer wouldn't fall that easily.And that would be proven to be right to me in three, two, one…BANG!The doors of my office were pushed open with great force, and a loud bang resonated all around the office."You ungrateful bitch! I gave you an opportunity to work with the best lawyer in London and you went and reported me to HR! For what? A few touches that were
