Michael POV

"You fucking Lunatic!" Niko railed into me the second we walked through the door. I guess he lied about being a few hours out.

Lucy quickly jolted behind me and I watched her try to hid in my back. She was hopeless.

"Nice to see you too. You have eyes on Amy?" I cut right to the chase.

"Amy! I got Amy and I will protect her. You, oh you..." Niko grabbed his gun from the counter and began pacing. Paul stepped between us, whispering something to try and calm the dinosaur down.

"She is my sister. I already warned you not to get in my way." I spewed nothing but hate at him. I had enough shit going through my head right now.

"Your sister?" Niko shouted. "Do you have any idea how much danger you put her in?"

"Me? You're the idiot that can't even keep his house in order."

"Me?" Niko pushed Paul to the side and got right in my face.

"I have..." I got right back in his face when little hands pushed at my chest.

"Will you both calm down!" Lucy shouted, a hand on each of us, pus

    Michael POV"I don't know what she is talking about." I grumbled, lying uncomfortably on a twin size mattress."Yes, you do." Vinnie cleared his throat. He was sitting on a chair beside me, fingers on the bridge of his nose. "We are so fucked. We thought someone was trying to hack our accounts to move money, but they were really leaking info to Niko this whole time.""I'm trying to understand, Vinnie, but I feel like I might throw up. Spell it out and quickly." I asked with a deep whine."We stole from Niko, been watching his warehouses and hideouts. We were kids just messing around back then." He looked at me and I saw the regret on his face. "Five years ago, I sold some old data to Killian.""What?" I shot up then crumbled back down in pain. "Why the fuck..." I shouted."We needed an in with the Irish mob. He was an up and coming player at the time. You said to get on his good side and you didn't care about Niko, as long as you were the one that got to kill him. It was an easy in."

    Niko POV"What the fuck are we going to do?" I paced the kitchen floor. I had a little fucker in one room to my right and a crying teenage girl in a room to my left. "I'm too old for this shit.""Michael is misguided, but a smart fucker." Paul smiled at me, relaxing on the couch like he had no worries in the world. He was getting old too."We aren't trusting Michael." Gio quickly challenged."There was a time we didn't trust you." Paul shot back at him."Enough!" I shouted just as Viv finally returned. She had two grocery bags in her hands that instantly fell to the floor when she saw my face. "Kitten, we need to talk." I tried to calmly speak, knowing I was about to get my ass handed to me."Calm down? Calm down?" She said with all her fury. She was so damn sexy, and very fucking lethal. "Kitten, please, let's sit and talk calmly." I tried to move us to the couch. Paul and Gio jumped up and raced out the door. Fucking cowards!"Do I look like I'm in the mood to be called your kitt

    Lucy POVEverything inside me was on fire. I grabbed at my hair, kicked the bed and wanted to scream on the top of my lungs. I couldn't be here. I couldn't look at him and not want his death. I sat on the bed, steadying my breaths. I needed to go home. I went to the bathroom and turned on the shower, then slipped out the window. It was probably a stupid plan, but I didn't care. I have my Id and credit cards, plus Niko was probably going to take me home anyway. I didn't need to wait any longer. I couldn't. I walked right past some guards, waving to them like nothing was suspicious. I wasn't an enemy, or even a threat. And that is exactly how I got in a car and just drove off without anyone even trying to stop me.After ten minutes on the road I just broke down, crying the whole way to the airport. I was a mess, ready to break at any moment. It felt like I couldn't breathe any air other than that in New York."One way ticket to JFK." I asked at the counter, handing the lady my license

    Michael POV"Niko will be here any minute. You ready?" I nodded to Sio."Locked and loaded." She nodded back."Paul said 7:30, it's not even six." Vinnie shot me a look."Niko will be early. He already surveyed our perimeter." I added a grenade to my belt. I was taking as much fire power as possible. Amy was coming home tonight, and Killian, I was going to tear him limb from limb for both my sister and Lucy."Dylan called earlier. He said Amy is fine and being held in a room on the third floor. Other than no food all day she hasn't received any punishment she wasn't willing to take." Sio added."What the fuck does that mean?" I scrunched my face at her. I probably shouldn't had told them about my contact, but I needed today for Lucy. Not that it did us any good. "I don't know. It's what he said." Sio shook off my bad mood. "Where's Ariel?" I snapped at her."It wasn't a good idea to bring her to this fight. You know of her ties to Killian and I don't want her around him ever again.

    Amy POV"What did you bring me, my pet?" Killian's voice dripped with honeyed malice, the kind that made your skin crawl before you even understood why. He lounged behind his desk like a king waiting for a show."A peace offering, Master," the redhead before him purred, voice soaked in twisted obedience.My fingers drifted toward my gun as I listened to whatever fucked up meeting was going on.Killian tilted his head, smirking. "You have served me well. That data you sent caused quite a stir with my enemies, but why would I need some frail child now?"From just outside his office, I peeked through a narrow crack in the door. My eyes locked, wide and unmoving, like my brain was still trying to catch up to the danger already waiting inside.I knew I recognized that scream. Lucy knelt in the center of the room, bound and crying. My blood turned to ice, but I didn't move. One wrong step, and we were both dead.Killian stood, slowly pacing around Lucy, a predator circling a wounded doe. Hi

    Amy POVLucy ripped the tape from her mouth, her eyes wide. "Amy! What the hell?"I shrugged, cool and unapologetic. "He deserved to die." And I meant it. I felt no remorse. No guilt or shame. I mean, come on, would you? It's not like it was the first time I pulled the trigger anyway. "That's not what I'm talking about," Lucy glared at me, shaking her head in disbelief. The redhead was still wailing beside us, hysterical, useless. I eyed her, briefly tempted to shut her up permanently."Don't," Lucy warned, seeing the thought pass through my expression."Friend of yours?" I asked, my voice flat."No, but she has a sister." Her voice was clipped, guarded.Right on cue, another redhead crept into view, her hands raised in shaky surrender."I'm Sio," her voice was soft, terrified. "Please don't kill my sister."Then came the voice that always signaled a storm."I'm going to do much worse..." his words exploded in my ear, and I flinched. Where the fuck did he come from?"Jesus, Michael!

    Michael POVI heard everything my sister said to that monster. Every reckless, unhinged, defiant word. But it wasn't until she blurted out confirmation that she had slept with him, like it meant nothing, like her body was something worthless, that it really hit inside me.That's when the blood drained from my head and something ugly settled in my chest. She let him touch her. Maybe wanted him to. That sadistic bastard touched my little sister. And I did nothing to shield her from it. "You!" I roared, stepping toward the man I'd trusted to protect her."Michael, I swear, she went after him." Dylan slowly backed up towards the door, hands half-raised like that would stop me."Enough," Niko warned, nudging my side. "We haven't cleared the property."I turned to him instead, seething. "How the hell are you not furious?" My voice came out rough, nearly shaking. Not from fear but from the realization that maybe I'd failed her a long time ago. "That man violated my sister."Niko exhaled thr

    Amy POVIt was a quiet ride back to whatever safe house Niko had set up. Lucy held one of my hands and Zander the other, squishing me between them in the back seat. I didn't want it any other way. I needed them more than I realized."We missed prom," Lucy said as we pulled through the large iron gate."Yeah, and two finals," Zander added.I laughed out loud. "We still have graduation. But seriously, how the hell are we just walking back into school on Monday like nothing happened?""Together," Zander said, giving my hand a squeeze.School felt like the least of our worries, but maybe it should be our only one. Maybe we were still just kids."Yeah, together," I echoed, watching him for a moment. He was really here."Are you a made man now, Zander?" Lucy teased."Well, I'm pretty good with a gun," he said proudly, until our driver chuckled."Shut up, Jimmy," Zander muttered, kicking the back of the seat."I'm sure you're a natural," I said, kissing his cheek and leaning my head on his s

    Michael POVThe tension from everyone around me was thick, and suffocating, but I had to ignore it. We all had our positions and if we didn't make every move exactly right we could all end up dead. Paul spent the next hour spreading whispers of betrayal, he conveyed his absolute disgust of my decisions to any that would hear. It would grab the attention of Niko's men and start a small riot within their ranks. Vinnie was the smart-ass jokester both unwaveringly loyal to me, and crazy enough to start a blood bath in my honor. Niko's men would never align with him, or trust him with a plan. But that would open the door for those disloyal within the Grasso's to take him under their wing. Amy played both sides by acting as the scared lost girl, someone tough who wanted revenge even at the cost of her life, but also someone who loved her brother dearly. She should be removed from all sides and none will be able to fully trust her. Last was Lucy, the one person in all this mess who was i

    Michael POVI don't know what this woman was doing to me, but I didn't want it to stop. I needed her in a way I never needed anyone. She was always in the back of my mind, for months I found ways to single her out in my torment, but then it turned into something more, a touch, a kiss, a need. Now, since I woke from that night my whole world flipped upside down, I wanted her in a whole new way. "Help me get dressed?" I said casually as I grabbed my suit from the chair. Her dress was under mine and I couldn't wait to see her in it."Of course." Lucy jumped right up and followed me to the bathroom. I definitely didn't need help getting dressed, but I definitely needed to see her naked again."You like?" I watched her unzip the bag, revealing a sophisticated but sexy white dress. The neckline was to her collarbone, concealing those beautiful babies in her chest. I knew she didn't like revealing too much skin, and I preferred it that way too. I had enough jealousy swarming inside me with

    Lucy POVThe moment I walked inside there was chaos everywhere. It seemed like hundreds of workers were renovating the house and I really just wanted some quiet. "I'll head upstairs. Maybe he won't wake until 3." I looked to Vinnie and Paul."I already sent him a text you were on your way because the dinosaur failed," Vinnie said and I closed my eyes. "Are you that afraid of him or just want us to get our asses handed to us?" I shot back at him. He was annoyingly loyal to Michael."Hey, I'm just doing my job. I don't need to get shot over this crap." Vinnie put his hands up in defense."No one is getting shot!" I yelled back, frustrated and so damn tired of this life. I half ran up the stairs, preparing my body for a fight that I didn't want to have. If I wanted to come home, I should be able to come home, and no one gets shot because of it.But the second I opened the door I froze. Michael was sound asleep in my bed, with no shirt or bandage over his long scar down his chest. I do

    Lucy POV"Michael ordered you to stay in school. I can't bring you home until 3:00." Paul quickly followed behind me to the car."I don't care what Michael ordered. I'm not part of your world and he isn't my boss." I yelled back at him."Lucy!" He reprimanded me, grabbing my arm and guiding me into the car."I'm sorry." I took a deep breath. I knew of the dangers of defying Michael. Not that he would hurt me, but if others overhead. He can't look weak."Just take a moment then head back in." He tried to de-escalate my boiling tantrum. "I can't, Paul. I want to go home." A few tears slipped and the car got quiet."I know this is hard and not what you want," Paul said carefully, probably hoping not to make me cry more. "Once we weed out who is behind the attacks we can all go back to the life we want." I looked him over for a minute, sadness taking over that he too was sacrificing for Michael. "Do you miss Gio?" I asked softly."We've been by each other's side since we were kids." He

    Lucy POVIt was strange being here, like it was a place I knew but didn't really remember. It wasn't too long ago that this was my norm. Monday through Friday I came to this building, gossiped, and joked with my friends. I went from class to class, worrying about nothing more than the next test or quiz.Now, it felt foreign. I didn't even remember what class I had during the fifth period. I was about to leave until I saw Zander in the hall. The second our eyes caught I felt a wave of relief. It was like my old life suddenly came rushing back to me."Hey, you came." He walked right up to me and hugged me tight in his arms. "It's been hell here without you." He admitted, squeezing me in his arms then let go. "High school was never all that much fun. I appreciate it though." I tuck my hair behind my ears, feeling a little out of place but comfortable now I found a friend."It was always better with you and..." he shrugged before finishing. "Is she here?" I looked around the halls. Ever

    Amy POVAll morning my house was in an uproar. Paul fighting with Lucy to stay home, and Lucy fighting with me to go to school. I had really thought once Michael was awake we could ignore all the stupid rules and do what was needed. I knew he would need time to recover, but I didn't fully register how weak he would be. I wanted to ignore that too, but I didn't want to get my brother killed.I needed a new plan, a way to find Declan and give him the death he deserved. He killed my family, the only man I ever looked at as a father. I can't just sit here and do nothing. I can't just wait for Michael to heal and finish the job for me. I needed to act!"Why are you down here?" Dylan walked into the basement, holding a box of donuts and two coffees. "I can't just walk around school and pretend to be fine. There are threats everywhere, even here. Why do you think Paul refuses to let Lucy out of his sight?" I was pacing the floor like a caged animal. My nerves were fried and I was about to

    Michael POV"Come in," I ordered."You needed me?" Paul walked in, looking unamused to be summoned."Take Lucy to school, and from now on, don't make a single order unless I approve it," I said, lying back down. A wave of exhaustion suddenly hit me."If that is what you think is best, boss." Paul had all attitude laced in his words. He was punk for a dinosaur."Do you have a problem with me becoming Capo, Paul? We can easily resolve it." I nodded to Vinnie who walked in behind him. He looked terrified and tried stepping back out the door. "Get in here!" I yelled at him.Lucy rushed out in an oversized shirt and baggy jeans. "What is happening?" She asked, looking at Paul and then Vinnie."Paul is going to take you to school and make sure you're safe. Right, Paul? You seem to like being attached to her side.""We have a meeting you called at 3:30." Paul clenched his jaw. "Unless you don't want your Second to attend. It would be a good way to make us look weak again.""Listen, Paul," V

    Michael POVI was pissed I woke alone but determined to get over this whole recovery process. Two more doctors met me in the morning, neither having the solutions I wanted. "Did you get what I needed?" I asked Vinnie the second he walked into my room. "Wouldn't disobey my Capo." He mocked and threw a bag at me. "Want to bend over and I stick it in you." He chuckled.Both doctors gave me a concerned look but they could go to hell. "They are the professionals and it can go in my arm, jackass." I pulled out the bottle and ordered one of the doctors to come to me."That's not advised." He warned."Wasn't asking." I handed him the steroids and they gave each other a look. "I'll eat plenty of protein, take all my vitamins, and chug nothing other than water, but that can't be all. I need to recover faster. Steroids, facet injections, cortisol, whatever there is, I'm filling my body to the brim with it over the next three weeks. After that, I should be good with my own exercise regime to he

    Michael POV"We needed to draw out the enemy outside the house." She replied, small tears slipping from her eyes."We? You aren't we. You are supposed to be in school. You will not go to another event. You will not take part in any of this..." I grunted, my hand releasing her arm, and grabbed my chest. I had her caged against the wall, but I was no threat."Michael, you should rest." Her hands came to my face, her touch so soft and gentle. "Rest?" I chuckled. "How can I rest when everyone around me has lost their minds?""I'm sorry. I was just trying to protect you." "Protect me? That's not how this works!""You can barely stand." She countered."Amy has already made it very clear that I'm weak. I don't need another lecture." I clenched my jaw, anger fading as I watched those eyes look over me. Concern, fear, maybe even love, staring at me."There's more power in my position than my body. You want to flush them out, then invite them in." I glared at her a moment, wanting to spew not
