Chapter Thirty-EightMarcellus“What the fuck are you playing at Night?” I scream at Jamie’s father as I bang my fist in anger on the table. I know he has something to do with Roman finding out about Jamie, he is the only one that could have known, and that would have been able to have direct contact with him.“We had a deal, and you went behind my back!” I accuse him.“I am doing what I have to do to protect my daughter, you asked for my help, and I am giving it my way! Roman hates your father just as much as anyone else, and he has been dying for the opportunity to take him down. It benefits him that there is new leadership within your family, and I know for a fact that he has had nothing to do with whoever is stealing from your family!”&nbs
Chapter Thirty-NineJamieJosh has been sleeping all day apparently, and all I want to do is see him standing around, and talking again, even if it’s him usually being a complete ass at least he is alive. He might not want to see me after what I told him over the phone back in Italy.My mom is curled up on the soft, gray velvet sofa with a blanket draped over her fast asleep. Her face is still stained with tears, and all I wish I could do is go back in time. If I would have known what she had gone through I would have tried to help her. But in all honesty I know deep down that there is nothing I could do. I just wish I could have stopped that from happening, and then Josh and I would have lived a very different life.The lights are off, and the TV light flashes in my face, I stare at the screen but
Chapter FortyJamieI could have sworn that I fell asleep on the chair last night, someone must have come to check on me and moved me to the bed. My eyes are burning and heavy from all the crying last night. I only wish Helios were here to keep me company like he used to.I drag myself out of bed, and slowly get myself ready for the day, the only thing motivating me is the fact that my brother is probably up and moving around by now. It will make my day to see him, and even talk to him about how he feels about us having the same dad.After a long shower, I grab a casual, short blue dress, I don’t choose this dress because of how cute it makes me look, I chose it because I know that Marcel will disapprove of the length. I am going to do everything in my power to defy him, and we will see

Chapter Forty-TwoJamieI stand up quickly to the sound of the thunderous boom of a gun go off, and instead of being the dumb girl to run down stairs, and see what’s going on. I immediately take advantage of the cell phone in my hands and call Marcel.I slide the touch screen open and search hurriedly for Marcel’s name in my contact list, and as soon as I see the beginning letters of his name I click the call symbol.It rings, and rings until finally I hear his smooth voice through the receiver of the phone.“Jamie?” he says, already sounding like he sensed something was wrong.“I just heard a loud gunshot down stairs,” I say in a whisper, in fear th
Chapter Forty-ThreeJamie“So you're telling me that you haven't been kidnapped, and no one has hurt you, and that you're fine.” Alley says from the other line.“Yes, Alley. Didn't you hear me back at the hospital? He has been nothing but… nice.” Okay so that was totally a lie, but in the end he has become… nice, if that's the word for it.“You know what this sounds like to me? Stockholm Syndrome.” Alley says blankly.“Alley. I'm seriously fine, there are a lot of things that have came about from all of this… for instance, my dad. He found me…” I know I am dropping a bomb, but it's a bomb of distraction.“WHA
