"Nico! They don't have anymore back ups. You need to get through these men fast to get to Perez," Stefano says through my ear piece. "Maximo is taking a van back to the main house. We have at least eight men hurt."
"Make sure you get through the house to make sure they are ready," I reply. I grab my pistol and turn around the corner to make sure there is no one coming my way. I notice movement and duck back around the corner. I poke my head around and see that it is Luca walking out. I step out from behind the wall and Luca notices me. I jog over to him and that's when I notice one of the French aiming their gun towards the two of us.
"Mario found Perez-" Luca starts and that's when it's like time slows down.
"Luca move!" I shout and push Luca down to get him out of the way. I go to move as well but all I feel is a intense burning throughout my whole entire torso. I go to scream but nothing comes out and that's when Luca stands up and shoots the man who shot at

"We have to get going," I rush out as I put my bag over my shoulder. "We still have a two hour drive.""We are almost set to leave," Alcee tells me as she grabs her own bag. "The cars will leave shortly." I go to say something but Alcee just gives me a look. I keep my mouth shut and Alcee grins before she takes Rose's hand. She leads us down to the cars to pack them up. A lot of the men that went out yesterday came back to help pack up everything. They spent most of their time carrying things down to the cars and getting their own belongings."First car is leaving now if you are ready," Antonio tells me as I get outside."Where is it?" I ask and he leads me over to the grey car. "Who is driving it?""Me," he replies as he opens up the trunk. He puts Rose's bags in first before mine and Alcee's. I quickly buckle in the car seat that Antonio brought over so Rose can get in. Once she is buckled in I go around the car to sit in the back with her, Alcee is up

Two days.Two days of waiting.Two days of waiting, waiting to hear about Nic.Two days of not having a clue on what is wrong.Two days in the dark."Dani," Aurora says as she sits nexts to me at the table. "They told us how it happened and what it hit.""What happened? Is it going to effect him permanently? Will he live?" I rush out questions and Aurora has to stop me."He's okay," she tells me and I sigh in relief. "They say he should be out of the coma in the next few hours.""Coma!" I shout and Aurora calms me down."Medically induced," she stops me and I stop panicking. "That's why we haven't heard of him asking for anyone. He's been asleep the past few days.""So what exactly happened?" I asked remembering why she came to me in the first place."He was hit twice," Aurora starts off with and my eyes widen. "It hit his right shoulder, that one wasn't as bad. It was easy to remove and they stitched it right up.

Once I reached the door that I've stared at the past couple days, I bang my fist against it. After a few knocks the door swings open. Viviana stands there with an angered look across her face. Her hands are placed on her hips, and her mouth is in a straight line."Danielle! We have a resting patient in side! He needs to sleep!" Viviana scolds me. "He is still very weak at the moment.""I know he's awake," I rush out. "I need to see him." I stare at Viviana with a pleading look. Her arms move to cross over her chest and she just stares at me. "Please," I beg, "I haven't been told anything about him until today. I've waited and waited and I can't do it anymore, knowing he's okay. Please Viviana.""He fell asleep again not to long ago," Viviana says with a pitiful look on her face. "I'll have someone get you the moment he wakes up again. Affare?" My eyebrows furrow at the last word, having no idea what she said. "Deal?"Oh deal, I shake my head yes

The counters in the kitchen are covered in various ingredients, especially flour. Rose's nose and cheeks have flour on them as well, plus a few of her curls that have fallen an her face. Luca has patted my face with his flour covered hands, leaving my entire face covered. I may or may not have dumped the whole bag of flour on him in return. Oh and Kiyara may or may not have walked in and just laughed."Luca! Where is he? Is he okay? Oh my poor baby," a woman yelled at Luca as she ran into the kitchen. Kiyara rolls her eyes at the woman and Rose buries her face into Luca's neck. I recognized her from the time I was in Nic's room and she barged in.---------------------"Fanculo," Nic muttered and I avoided looking at both Nic and the woman. "Who the hell is that babe?"---------------------Oh how I love first impressions. I believe her name is Sofia but it could be Sofie. By the look on her face right now she remembers me

It's been a week since Nic woke up and he's already trying to over work himself. He's locked up in his office all day doing paperwork that Mr. Rosi couldn't keep up on. Plus there's some secret mission going on and only like ten people know about it.Since Nic is too occupied at the moment, I've seen him twice. Well I've seen him multiple times when I'd bring his meal to him but I haven't held a conversation with him. It's like he's ignoring me again, even though everything seemed fine when he woke up. I chose to ignore it because I'm too exhausted to argue. I mean I literally never slept while he was in his coma, now I'm making sure everything is perfect for him. There isn't really a reason why I guess."Momma! Your phone!" Rose exclaims as she runs into the kitchen. I grab my phone from her hands and see that someone is calling me, more like my sister.I haven't spoke to my family all week really, probably because I'm over working. Shocked- sarcasm at its fine

Nicola's POV:"This is beautiful Nic," Elle gasps as she gets out of the car. "Did you do all this?""Aurora helped with decorating but I had the idea," I tell her honestly and she comes around to hug me."Well it's amazing," she whispers before she lightly kisses my neck. "How did you even find this place?" She asks while I lead her to the small table. Mario had left a little before us to bring the food so it didn't get cold. I needed everything to be perfect."My father took my mother here when they were younger," I tell her as she sits in her chair. "Father said that him and mom used to come up here when they needed a break from the house. This was there spot. Now my father is letting us use it.""Well I need to thank him when we get back," she smiles. I grab the red wine and pour us each a glass."Father told me that this was the place where he first knew he loved mom," I say and look at the fire next to the table. "He s

"Mommy!" Rose squeals as she jumps on my bed. I groan and cover my face with a pillow to try and block out everything. Rose doesn't stop jumping and I hear a deep laugh from the side of my bed. I slowly take the pillow off my face and peek to see who it is, "you up?""Yes I'm up Rose," I groan and glare at the man who brought her in here. "Why are you jumping on my bed?""We gotta go!" Rose exclaims in a duh tone."We leave for Florida today bella," Nic reminds me and my eyes widen. He picks up Rose and I jump out of bed. I quickly run to the bathroom and do my daily needs. My shower is quick, and I realized I didn't bring clothes after the fact. I hurry back to my room, a death grip on my towel as I do so. When I get back I notice Nic sitting on my bed rolling up his sleeves."What are you doing in here? And where is Rose?" I ask as I make my way to my dresser. I pull out a pair of black leggings and a oversized sweatshirt."Rose is sayin
