登入“A battle for myself, my family, my home.”–Diego went out to the east gate where the first attack had been made. He made sure to stand with his men as they fought.“Don!” One of his men yelled out. “You should get out of here! They’re obviously after you and this family cannot stand without you!”Diego only smirked but went deeper into the embrace of the battle.In swift moves, he moved through each enemy like a dance, slicing throats like it was a part of the dance steps.In minutes, many had fallen by his side and the number of the intruders had dangerously reduced.“Boss!” One of his men called out to him. “The mansion has been breached, they must be heading for your room. They’re in the living room as we speak.“The people inside are outnumbered by far, they need your help. We can take what remains here, you should go in. I’ll send some other soldiers in with you.”Diego nodded his head and went back into the mansion.As he got into the building, he turned to face one of the sol
“Of all the people to come across, it had to be him.”–Moments went by before Rebecca was able to quiet down. She leaned her weary head against the front seat window and remained like that without ever uttering a word.The road was smooth, so it was easy to remain lost in her thoughts without any distraction.It felt like it took forever, a lonely drive to the end of the world while she mourned the one that she loved.Finally, the car came to a stop, but it was not until Vincenzo shook her awake that she realized that.She blinked, returning to her cruel reality. If only he had let her think a little bit more about the moments she had with Diego.“Come on.” Vincenzo said briefly. He took off his seat belt and reached behind the car. Picking up a black face cap with golden intricate designs at the front, he handed it to her. “Put it on.”She stared at the face cap and looked up at him. She was going to ask him what for, but he explained before she could speak.“We don’t want anybody r
“She’s my whole world, my life, all that matters is her.”“He’s all I could ever need.”–Earlier at the Gonzalez mansion…Diego was busy flipping through some papers. For someone who wanted nothing but to rest that day, he had a lot of paperwork set out for him.Vincenzo suddenly burst in through the front door, making Diego’s head shoot up at the abruptness of his action.“Forgive me, Don, but I come with bad news.” Vincenzo was panting heavily. He had practically run all the way like his life depended on it.Probably because it did.Diego set aside every paper in front of him and listened with full focus. “What’s the problem?”“The east gate has been breached by some masked men carrying suspicious weapons. Our men have been deployed there, but now the west wing is also in crisis.”Diego’s brow furrowed as he rose to his feet. “What? All at once?”Vincenzo nodded his head worriedly.Diego scoffed, not believing his ears. “We must have slept on our hands thinking we still had time. T
“What kind of surprises are these? I don’t want them, take me back!”–The day went by, and all she did was scroll mindlessly through her phone like a zombie. She had never been a phone addict, but all those weeks without a phone were enough to make her want to remain glued to it.She tried not to like anyone’s profile or updates, but her friends were moving on like nothing ever happened.Her father’s family seemed to have taken over her father’s properties and were living fine.But something made her grateful to all of them, the missing posters on their walls containing her picture and information. They had been looking for her.She felt tears well up in her eyes. “It doesn’t matter anyways, it’s not like they care about me,” she told herself.For her father’s family to be posting her continuously, there must be something they wanted that only she could provide.Her phone had been bombarded with texts and calls from her friends. They were supposed to have a reunion around the time sh
“Now that I have my phone, what am I going to do first??!”–Diego could tell that she was angry, and he would be lying if he said he didn’t expect that from her. But he didn’t want her personal emotions to get in the way of the assignment.She arched her brow at him impatiently. “What?!” she exclaimed. “Aren’t you going to tell me what the assignment is?”“Not until you calm down. I get it, you’re mad, as you should be, but you can’t blame me for holding on to these things, your phone especially, until I knew you could be trusted.”Hearing his words, she felt her body relax a little. “So you… you trust me now?”There was a subtle smile on his face, but he didn’t answer that. The answer was pretty obvious. “So, are you ready to hear the assignment now?”She nodded her head, holding back from smiling like a love-smitten fool.“The trips I usually go on every single year are very important to me, and I can’t miss one of them. Never have, and I don’t plan to start today.”“But you said y
“It’s not supposed to hurt but it still kinda does. Heck, it hurts a lot.” – Rebecca pulled the blanket fully over herself as cold air whipped against her bare skin. She moved to snuggle closer to the man lying next to her, only to realize that she was alone in bed. With a tired yawn, she opened her eyes and sat up. The night before had left her tired and aching, especially down there. It made her wish she hadn’t tried to mess with him. She had used up all her strength, but it still wasn’t enough for him. He was a monster! But her own monster, and she liked him like that. “Where did he go?” she asked herself. “Did he leave already? Diego! Diego?” she called out his name, but there was no response. He had probably gone back to his own room. She rose to her feet and went straight into the bathroom to soak herself in hot water, hoping it would soothe the throbbing down there. After about thirty minutes, she got dressed and went down for breakfast. The two brothers w
I'll serve you, but you'll wish I didn't. _Diego was out of bed before his alarm went off. He went into his bathroom to freshen up. He cursed underneath his breath as he remembered that he was meant to stay away from baths. He wiped his face and neck and other body parts with a wet towel before
The strongest Man with the greatest weakness. _Diego heard a soft knock on his door and he already knew who it was. Rebecca approached his desk and placed a cup of coffee in front of him.He looked up at her face and noticed something new. Her lips were a deeper shade of red than normal. His brow
“Say my name. Say it once, say it twice.” _Rebecca almost slapped herself right there. How could she think about sex? Sex with a man like… him??? She could feel her cheeks heating up from the irresponsible thoughts that swarmed her head. How come she let herself waver so much? “What are you thi
It shouldn't hurt but it still does_Diego woke up with a soft groan. Opening his eyes, he felt even more tired than he did when he went to bed. How did he get to his room anyway? The last thing he remembered was going to the balcony for a smoke. Rubbing his forehead slightly, he tried to rememb
