LOGINAfter being betrayed by his loyal and best friend for a crime he didn't commit, Mateo is on the run with the FBI and prosecutors on his tail. With no one to turn to or meet, he stumbles upon someone he least expected to meet; Arianna Romano. The notorious Mafia Queen and the case he was working on before he was fired. But when she takes him hostage, he soon realizes she isn't what everyone said she was. Arianna Romano was known for these things; she wasn't merciful and she was ruthless. When she found a detective who was rumored to be on the run she is meant to have killed him because he's a threat but she felt a strange pull and connection towards him and she already knew she had taken a interest in him but she knew they could never work because of their different line of works. She's always been in control, but she finds herself cowering down for him. One thing was sure she always gets what she wants, no matter what..

Keeping the guns I was stacking back into the drawer, I sit at the edge of the table with open arms, ready for him to come crashing into them. "DADAAAAA." He screams when he rounds the corner and sees me, running straight into my open arms and I sweep him off his feet. "Hey buddy," I ruffle his hair and he giggles, big brown hazel eyes look up at me and I melt. Like always. I always do. I love my son's bright innocent eyes, reminds me of my mum's. "Mama?" he asks, tilting his head sideways asking about his mum and I shake my head glancing at my watch. She should be here any minute now but I can't find her anywhere. "Mama's on her way love," I set him on the table and I pull my chair closer to him. "Have you eaten?" He nods, playing with the purple dinosaur in his hands while I watch him. He looks like the mini version of both Arianna and I but I'd like to say he looks more of Arianna than me. He has her
Matteo Rodriguez Few months later.I kneel at the headstone, staring at the name blankly as I trace it with my fingers.I promised myself I'd just come to greet her and go back but seeing her name made memories wash in."Hey," I sit on the floor in front of her headstone."it's been a while."I look up at the sky, I find myself doing a lot of that nowadays. "I know I'm a jerk for not coming to see you all this while but I'm sorry... I couldn't just face you. face what happened." I still can't, but that's what kept me going, made me who I am today.The gentle breeze is so soothing I felt my eyes start to close. I also haven't been getting a lot of sleep these days."You can hate me for all you want but I just want you to know that I love you and I always will and nothing or no one can change that."The cemetery was quiet, only the sound of the man mowing the yard could be heard.Silence again. The silence was starting to wrap around me like a second layer of skin, like the warmth of a
Matteo Rodriguez Stupid stupid stupid.I pace my room staring at the mess all over the floor. Ihaven't been myself for two days. We all have been restless. Arianna left without a word and it's been two days, well two nights and this is the third day.8:43am.I'm trying hard not to track her but I want her to get the space she needs."Any news?" Redd comes into my room and I see the others standing behind him."You asked that minutes ago, I do not fucking know where she is," I ran my hand through my hair again. "She isn't with her phone and I can't even call her. I dont know where the hell she is, if she's eating right or not.""Mateo should I...""Not yet, we're giving her till noon, if she doesn't come back, you'd track her," I explain while they all listen intensively. "and we all go get her.""Okay then." Vera replies quietly heading out with her head hanging low and I sigh. Everyone was down, I turn my back to everyone with hands on the desk and my head laying limp between my sho
Arianna Romano I do not like this.Mateo doesn't let me lift a finger, do any work or even train and the others were already getting suspicious. Suspicious in the sense that something's wrong because Mateo's being a dickhead about not telling them yet. He wants to tell them when there isn't any enemies or danger lurking around anymore."Mateo please," I plead but he acts like I'm not on planet Earth. "Stop being a baby about this.""No," His voice was cold and I sink further into the bed. "you're not doing it and whatever I say is final.""But-""Arianna drop it," he looks at me sternly but I scoff."I said what I said and that's it."I groan, throwing a pillow at him which he dodges skillfully. He wasn't even looking! I hate how perfect this man gets.He walks to the windows, pulling the heavy curtains like it's nothing, dimming the light in the room leaving only the candlelight reflect in the house.I love candles. They give a sense of peace and quietness and I love that. Mateo did
