Gianna-/

Maxmillan had an ex-wife?

I mean, it was understandable, he was almost forty but he never mentioned anything about her to me.

Having her in front of me, with him tensing up like this made my stomach churn. I couldn't help but feel like there was still something between them. Lingering feelings that were yet to die.

“What are you doing here?” Max asked her. “This isn't a place for you.”

Kesley raised a brow at him. “It's not? I'm guessing it is a place for your little girlfriend then .”

I expected Max to correct her. To say I was his wife, not girlfriend but he didn't and my chest tightened.

“We are solely here for business,” he went ahead to say, adding more salt to my injuries.

Kesley's eyes wrecked through me and she snorted. Her eyes twinkled in amusement as if she knew something that I didn't.

“I see you still haven't changed. I hope you have a lovely night,” she said simply and walked away. Max's eyes followed her until she was completely out of sight.

“Max…” I called, m

    /-Gianna-/I sat in the living room with a bowl of fruits in my hand. It was easier to digest than normal food since I was beginning to lose my appetite at a very rapid rate. My fevers were becoming more frequent and I threw up almost everything that entered my mouth except for the fruits. “Gianna,” Melody walked into the living room suddenly.“Hey,” I smiled at her. “Did you need something?” She took a seat opposite me. There was something malicious about the way she looked at me.“I see that you are enjoying yourself. The fruits must taste really nice, right?” She asked. The question came off as weird. It would have been normal if her eyes didn't glare at me with so much hate. “Uhm… yeah?” I asked, staring curiously at her. “Is there a problem?” “Why do you think my Maxmillan loves you so much?” She asked and I blinked. That was one question I was not expecting from her. “I… I'm not sure?” I offered.“Exactly,” she nodded. “No matter how much or how long I think about it, I s

    /-Piper-/Everything has been awfully chaotic with Eric and Maxmillian going back and forth with each other. I wouldn't say it was a bad thing entirely because it was going to be to our advantage anyways. While he was busy focusing his attention on Maxmillian, taking him on with all his strength, Dante and I were busy planning ways on how to get our revenge on him for sabotaging Dante's businesses.Sure Maxmillian and Dante weren't on good terms and Max would never agree to work with us but the hatred for Eric was mutual.I would never forgive that man for ruining me the way that he did. He deceived me, used my body to his advantage and almost made me leave my husband for fake promises.I had fallen victim for his manipulation once but I told myself never again. I will do my best and everything within my power to make him pay for what he did to me. I handed over a glass of wine to Eric who was focused on his laptop. “Hey you,” I smiled. “Care for a drink?” He nodded curtly and to

    /–Maxmillian–/The knock came again.Then silence.I motioned to the driver with a sharp tilt of my head. He crept toward the entrance, gun raised, steps measured. My own pistol remained steady against Eric’s skull, his sweat now trickling down his temple in thick, panicked beads.“Still think I’m bluffing?” I muttered.He didn’t answer.Good. He was finally learning.Then… bang.A flash grenade shattered through one of the warehouse windows, followed by a concussive boom that rocked the walls and sent glass raining from above. The bulb overhead swung violently, casting chaotic shadows across the concrete floor.The driver staggered, blinded. “Shit—!”Three figures stormed in through the loading dock door, dressed in black tactical gear. Night vision goggles. Silenced weapons. Military precision.Eric's men.The bastards actually came.I shoved Eric and flipped the chair backward just in time as bullets sparked against the metal scaffolding behind me. He hit the floor with a grunt, st

    /-Maxmillian-/I watched him squirm.Eric always thought he was the smartest one in the room. So smug, so composed. Like the world revolved around his lies and his manipulations. But now? Now he looked like the scared little bastard he always was underneath the facade.I stepped out of the car first, the metallic slam of the door behind me sending a tremor down the empty lot. The warehouse loomed ahead, silent and forgotten,.just like the mess he left behind when he tried to erase her from my life.“She screamed, you know,” I said, coldly. “When your men grabbed her. She thought she was going to die. And maybe she would’ve… if I had been just a minute later.”Eric’s face twisted as he was dragged out by the driver, who was more than just a chauffeur. He was one of mine. Loyal. Dangerous. Silent.“I didn’t…” he began, but I shoved him forward.“No. Save it. You had your chance. You could’ve stayed on your side of the line. But you crossed it. Again.”The warehouse door creaked as I pul

    /-Eric-/I was heading out of my company when a car suddenly blocked my way. Maxmillian stepped out and I let out a sigh. What is this insolence now?I opened the door and stepped out as well. He was raging mad. I could see the anger dancing in those fierce eyes of his. He stormed towards me and I didn't expect anything out of the ordinary until his hands connected with my face. I blinked, unable to believe it at first. Did he just hit me? It had to be my imagination right?“How dare you?!” He barked as the stink in my cheek echoed through every nerve in my body. He really laid his hand on me!“How dare you even think of abducting my wife? Do you have a death wish?” He growled, grabbing me by the collar.Well shit!This would have been a very good there to move around with armed bodyguards. “What insolence is this, Maxmillian? Do you realize I am your other brother?” I hissed. “Get your hands off me now!” He didn't seem to hear me. His anger was intensifying with each passing se

    /-Melody-/Leave the Mafia huh? She must be so full of herself. To think that Maxmillian is even considering her request.Who the hell is he leaving the seat for? I would rather die than watch Eric or even Dante take over my mother's hardwork. Besides, Maxmillian already has an empire of his own. Did she seriously expect him to jsit abandon it? How selfish could she be?I needed to talk some senses into him. This woman was definitely going to be the cause of his downfall. Clearly, the bear miscarriage wasn't enough warning for her. I walked away from their door and headed to my room. There was only one person i knew was truly worthy of Maxmillian.Kesley. His ex-wife.She should be the one fighting for him now. I didn't want to believe that she just gave up and vanished after a few tries to get back with Max.I took out my phone and dialed her number. She answered almost immediately.“Kesley!” I smiled even though she couldn't see me but I was certain my voice conveyed my excitemen

    /-Gianna-/It might have been a selfish request on my part but I was sick of it. All that has happened since I came back to him is war and trouble. I was sick of all of it. I needed a goddamn break!A part of me was scared of his response. The mafia was his life. It wasn't something he could just give up simply because I asked and that was terrifying because I couldn't afford to lose him.I needed him. My baby needed him. But if things keep going this way, we might end up losing our lives before we even had the chance to enjoy our love. “Gianna…” Maxmillian's voice trembled. “Do you know what you are asking me?” Yes, I did. I wouldn't have if I wasn't sure. “Being with you isn't safe, Max. No matter how much you try to protect us, one enemy will eventually outsmart you. I can't take that risk. That is why I am asking…” I scooted closer to him and took his hand. “For the sake of our child and happiness, can you leave this life behind? Go legitimate or something…”He didn't say any

    /-Maxmillian-/It was empty. I had my men bring back some of the boys for questioning. I suspected Eric. He was the only one who was crazy enough to pull such a stunt right after I exposed him to the council.If he thought attacking Gianna was the ultimate move then he had another thing coming. If any of those boys by chance confirmed he was the one who attacked my wife and sister, then I was going to give him a slow painful death. I returned to the mansion to meet with Gianna and Melody. They both looked scared and traumatised and it hurt my heart to see them like this. “Are you two okay?” I asked, walking towards them. Melody ran into my arms. “I knew you would come for us but I… I was so scared. I thought we were going to die before you showed up,” she sobbed. I stroked her hair gently. “You know I would never let any harm come to you, Melody. You are my sister. I will do everything in me to always protect you,” I assured her. Gianna suddenly walked upstairs without saying a

    /-Gianna-/The silence after the chaos was deafening.I could still hear the echo of the gunshot that ricocheted off the pipe, still feel the cold grip of fear that had lived in my chest for what felt like hours. But now… now I was in Maxmillan’s arms, and for the first time since the abduction, my heart began to beat in rhythm again.His scent, the familiar blend of leather and spice, wrapped around me like a shield. I didn’t want to let go. I didn’t even care that my hands were still shaking or that I had blood on my cheek that wasn’t mine.“Let’s get you out of here,” he murmured, already working to cut the ropes binding me. His fingers were gentle but fast, the dagger slick with blood as he sliced through the coarse restraints.“Wait,” I whispered, suddenly realising the one thing I have been missing. “Melody… where’s Melody?”Max stiffened. “She’s not here?”“No.” I grabbed his wrist, my voice rising. “They took us together. She was here… right beside me!”How could she have sudd
