Chapter Eleven

“Hello? Is there anybody on the line?” Enzo’s soft voice said again. It seemed like it had been months since I last heard his voice.“I think it's a wrong number,” I heard him say in a low voice to someone.Just when I felt like he was going to end the call, I opened my mouth to speak. “Enzo, it's me.”“Nazlynn?” He said, sounding shocked. “Sis where have you been? I have been calling and texting since forever, I even had someone check the house for me. What's up, is everything alright?” He asked, concerned. My breath hitched in my throat and I wondered what they found when they got to my house.My father, halfway dead or drunk, or his blood stains across the floor with no body to trace it to. “I…”“You know what? That's in the past, did you change your number? I haven't received a call from this number before?” I could picture him furrowing his eyebrows in confusion the way he would do over a video call. “I lost my phone,” I managed to croak out. There was a pause for a few secon

Chapter Twelve

“Please Luca, I beg you,” the man pleaded, going down on his knees. “I had no choice, it was only a moment of desperation.”“Did I give you permission to speak?” Luca asked. The thick layer of rage beneath his voice was unrecognizable, it almost threw me off balance.Luca picked up a small knife from the table behind him, “I'm sure most of you know Peter, well, Peter has been selling illegal drugs using my business as a front.” Luca announced to the rest of us.If this were any other situation, people would begin to murmur after that announcement but the pin drop silence was deafening. “Luca, don't do this please. My wife! I have kids at home, you've met my kids.”“You should have thought about your family before deciding to act smart, Peter.” With a flick of his hand, Luca threw the knife into Peter's neck, missing his jugular by just a thread. It was so precise that it almost looked intentional.Peter's hand held on to the knife as blood spilled out of the wound. He coughed, splat

Chapter Thirteen

I didn't believe Luca, of course. He wouldn't actually do anything to hurt Enzo. But I couldn't help but start to panic when I tried calling Enzo two different times that day and the call went straight to voicemail.I was walking around absentmindedly to distract myself when I bumped into someone some time towards evening.“Nazlynn,” he called out when I walked past him after muttering an apology. I turned back.“Mathias? I'm sorry, I didn't notice you pass by. How are you?” I asked, giving him a forced smile.“I'm alright, the twins send their regards. They told me to pass across an invite to the house some time next week as well,” he said, guiding me to a side of the long hallway. I thought for a little bit before nodding when I remembered that there was nothing to do here anyways. “Are you okay? You look a little out of it,” he placed a hand on my forehead. “Luca mentioned the allergy incident of yesterday, do you perhaps need to see a doctor?”I pulled his hand off my head with

Chapter Fourteen

“Not all that good in the kitchen my ass,” Elena moaned as she stuffed her mouth with more cookies. Luckily, I was standing close enough to catch what she said.I laughed shyly. “That good huh?”“Good? Girl this is freaking amazing, José couldn't beat this even if he tried,” Jenna gushed, sniffing another piece before wolfing it down.“Well ouch, I feel offended Jenna,” a new voice joined in as the two boys walked in through the balcony.“Oh my love, you know I love you and I love your cookies but you have to try one of these,” Jenna said, walking towards them with two pieces in hand.They both greeted me before taking a piece each. I didn't miss the look of satisfaction on both their faces as they bit into it, nodding their heads.“I really can't beat that,” José said with a boyish grin before taking a few more pieces as they left the kitchen.Jenna piled the cookies on a plate while I sat and watched her. Elena slid a medium sized glass jar in my direction. “You should take some fo

Chapter Fifteen

“Where's your wedding ring?” I heard Luca ask me the minute I stepped out of my room.“What? No compliments, no nice words, the only thing you have to say is that?” I asked him with a raised brow and a frown.He ignored me, pointing at his ring finger again to remind me of his question.Sighing, I said, “I took it off, the jewelry set I have on has its own ring and I can't wear both at a time.”“Put on your ring, Nazlynn.”“What? No, I don't want to,” I argued, holding my hand away from him like that would change the fact that I didn't have the ring on. He snatched my hand, pulling the ring I had on out and throwing it down the hallway and out of sight. I gasped in horror. Those were real pearls.“That must have cost a lot, why would you do that?” I exclaimed, pulling my hand away from him.“Why do I have to wear the wedding ring? It's just a stupid ring for this fake marriage.”He took two steps closer to me and I took two steps back until I was backed up into the door. “This is not

Chapter Sixteen

Luca's POVI tried not to stare too much at Nazlynn when we were seated comfortably. She really did look beautiful and the dress matched the color of her eyes. She easily outdid every woman that I had seen so far.I tried to hide my frown when I saw the three men approach me “what's this about?” I asked them.Daniel bent and whispered in my ear. “The cargo and everything in the warehouse in Dublin has been cleared.”My blood ran cold, that warehouse had confidential information in it.“Stay where I can see you Nazlynn, I'll be right back,” I said to her before standing up.The second we stepped into a secluded area that was away from prying eyes and curious ears.“I want to hear what happened and I want to hear it along with solutions. What happened, Daniel?” I asked the middle aged man. Daniel was the man overseeing my second largest warehouse that was located in Dublin. His forehead was creased with worry. "It happened too fast, boss. One minute everything was secure, the nex minu

Chapter Seventeen

Nazlynn’s POVI woke up with a light buzz in my head, courtesy of the two or three glasses of champagne I had the night before. “Maria?” I called out the moment my feet touched the cool tiles on the floor.I was about to call out for her again when I heard her little footsteps approaching my room. “My apologies Signora, you called for me.”“Oh no, that's alright, could you run me a hot bath and then get me a glass of lemon juice. Thank you,” I said with a small smile. I sighed deeply, placing my hand on my temples.“Are you alright, Signora? Would you like me to get painkillers for the headache?” She asked with concern etched on her face.I politely declined and she entered the bathroom to get the bath running. I took a well needed soak, only coming out of the bathtub when the water started getting cold. Luca hadn't responded to my question last night and now, without sleepy eyes and with a clear head, I didn't know how to ask him again.The glass of lemon juice was waiting for me b

Chapter Eighteen

A day had passed since I learnt about Luca's mother's death anniversary from the twins and from what they said, the next day was the day she died. Luca and I had crossed paths twice from the time of the call. And every time we did, I resisted the urge to reach out and hold his hand in mine, instead, I murmured a greeting to which he grunted in response.His hooded eyes seemed to be calling out to me. I didn't know what to make of how I was feeling towards him and so I just wrote it off as empathy. I noticed the atmosphere in the house change that evening. The staff walked with stiff backs, like they were afraid of even breathing any louder than they should.If the twins had not already told me what was going on, I would have had to force Gabriel to tell me. Speaking of Gabriel, he had come to give me some sort of warning that afternoon.“The boss is not really in the best place this period, it would be in the best interest of you both if you just let him be for now. He'll come aroun

Chapter Nineteen

“You killed your mother?” I asked, struggling to mask the judgment in my voice.In a split second, Luca's lips set into a thin line and his face hardened. “Get out! Now,” he roared, his hands shaking from anger. I scrambled out of the gym as quickly as my feet could take me, hearing a loud bang as his fist made contact with whatever was nearest to him. Just as I was hurrying back to my room, I missed my step and tripped. Closing my eyes, I waited for the impact but it never came.“What do you think you're doing upsetting him today of all days?” Gabriel said, steadying me on my feet.“I…”“Come with me, so you don't get yourself hurt,” he said, guiding me down the stairs and to the living room. My lips were sealed shut and my mind was in a spiral. He killed his mother so why is he mourning? Or is it guilt? The thoughts were making my head ache.Exhaling loudly, I fell back on the couch with a plop.Gabriel was sitting on a stool beside the couch. He sighed.“Nazlynn, you shouldn't h

Chapter Twenty

My phone rang loudly, causing him to draw back and scoot away from me.Enzo’s name flashed brightly on the screen as I silenced the call. “I'll call him back later,” I stated even though Luca hadn't asked me. “No, you can take the call. It's your brother,” he said, not looking at me. The call ended and my screen went blank again. The man before me was not the same man that forcefully brought me to his house a month ago, he was also not the man that led a whole mafia. The man before me was a son who had lost his mother and was still grieving her death.“Do you know that when people die, you can sometimes summon their spirit in their favorite places?” I asked him, breaking the silence that had fallen between us. My aunt had said that to me after my mother died.Lucas' gaze traveled back to me and he looked at me skeptically. “How?” I stood up, stretching my hand out to him. Luca glanced from my face to my hand and back. I gave him an encouraging nod and he sighed before standing up
