It was true. Romano wasn’t the immediate heir. Alice wasn’t even of blood relation to our family. Their marriage could even one day be accepted. But ours will never be recognized, and will always be forbidden.

A part of me wanted to say yes, to run and be with Ace, to love him with reckless abandon. To live a normal life, without guns, missions, shipments, and danger… but I knew that we couldn’t. That we wouldn’t. We are the foundation for the future of our organizations, and without us, our f

    The Prequel (8 years earlier)"Wake up Allegra we have a flight to catch!" my annoying sister announced.I threw a pillow over my head, what's so exciting about Vegas anyway! I groaned as I dragged myself to the bathroom.What does an 18 year old gat to do to be left alone these days.“What a waste of my fucking life.” I groaned as I walked up the front steps of my family’s estate. My heels clinked against the stone as I wrapped my trench coat around myself “Seriously. What kind of modeling event doesn’t allow drinking?” Alice asked as we entered the house. We were dressed formally, in gowns and heels. I wore a long sleeve burgundy gown with a slit going up my thigh. It was tight, accentuating my curves in all the right places complemented by my simple Louboutins. Alice wore a shorter grey dress that reached just above her thigh. The back was completely open and it was the perfect mesh of sexy and classy. She paired it with black Jimmy Choo’s, and I have to admit, we looked great.

    “Did you grab food?” My wife said as I got in the car, bouncing excitedly in the passenger seat. “Did I grab the food?” I said playfully as I held up all her favorite and disgusting food she’s been craving for the past month. “God you’re the best.” She said as she snatched the peanut butter and Oreos out of my hand before I started the car and drove to the private airfields. I fell asleep for most of the flight, and woke up to the somber memory of all four of us laughing on our way to Colombia before both of them jumped out of the plane. Well, my brother willingly jumped out. I looked out the window at the tarmac and the surrounding buildings as we landed smoothly. I looked over at my wife, and gently nudged her shoulder to wake her up. “We’re here love. Come on.” I said as I gave her a slight smile. We exited the jet, and I got into the driver’s seat of the black Range Rover that waited for us and drove towards the shore. The beautiful and lush countryside was gorgeous

    ***ROMANO’S POV *** 4 weeks later*** We watched as my brother’s coffin was lowered into the ground. My father held my mother as she was crying hysterically, and to my surprise, even the Grey’s were crying over the loss of Ace. Allegra's coffin was buried on the other side of the field, something I know they’d absolutely protest against. I know that they’d want to be buried side by side, hell they’d even be buried in the same coffin if they could. But I kept my mouth shut and my opinions to myself as I watched the rest of the ceremony with my wife by my side. After Ace and Allegra went down to stop Moskov, the Russians grabbed the family members and dragged us down to the basement on a private elevator. Alice wasn’t a blood relative, so she was left behind. Luckily for me, my wife is a total badass, and practically killed all the Russian members at the venue herself. She found the explosives, and she and the members snuck down to the basement, and rigged them to the bottom of the s

    ******************************************* May I kiss my bride now?” Ace smirked as he wrapped an arm around my waist and pulled me closer. “You may.” I said, smiling as I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer to me. ******************************************* “I love you, my amazing husband.” I breathed as I rolled to my side and ran my hands through his hair. “And I love you, my darling wife.” He said softly ******************************************* “That’s my girl.” Ace said. “Damn right I am.” I said as I smirked and sped up to them. ******************************************* “I don’t give a F*ck if it’s a scratch, a bruise, or a bullet wound, no one fucking hurts my husband and lives.” I said as I pulled out of his embrace slightly. ******************************************* “Allegra,” Ace said as he stood up and grabbed me firmly by the shoulders. “My heart belongs to you and only you. I promised to spend the rest of my life making you feel nothing

    ********************************** “STOP!” A guard in the distance called out as we almost made it to the gate. We quickly scaled it as 5 guards started running towards us, gun in hand as they open fired at us. We jumped over the gate, and ran out onto the street, Ace still holding my hand tightly as we turned the corner. ***************************** “Ace, what are we doing here?” I asked curiously as he parked and turned off his motorcycle. “It dawned on me that I’ve never been able to take you on a proper date. And we’re here so I can change that.” He said as he smirked.********************************** “Us. How long can we continue keeping this a secret.” I said as I took another sip of my wine. “For however long it takes until I can marry you.” He said seriously as he leaned forward and cupped my cheek. “I’ll wait for an eternity if it means I can be with you.” Ace said.*********************************** “I’ll be counting down the minutes until you're back in my arm

    ********************************************* “This will be the only time we’re going to do this.” I stated “We’ll get this shit out of our systems.” Ace breathed. “And we’ll carry on with our lives.” I finished his sentence as I leaned forward, our noses touching. “Precisely.” Ace said before he gripped the back of my neck and harshly pulled me down into an intense kiss. “What was that for?” I whispered as I looked up and into his mesmerizing grey eyes. “I wanted to make sure that if I died, I’d be able to kiss those incredible lips one last time.” He said quietly, but seriously. ****************************************** “Are you ready, amore?” He asked as he sped towards the entrance of the garage. “Let’s show them why you should never fuck with the two best Assassins in the world.” I smirked as I loaded an assault rifle and cocked it. “That’s my girl.” He said as he placed his hand over mine. ****************************************** The impact from the hit hurled us

    “You stupid, reckless-” I started to say under my breath. “Allegra.” Ace said in a serious tone as he started to walk behind me. “Supercilious, pompous-” I said slightly louder, ignoring his warning as I continued to walk in front of him. “Allegra.” He growled behind me, his voice laced with frus

    “So… what’s the plan?” I said as I continued to breathe heavily. “You’re the strategic one… you…tell me.” Ace said between breaths as he stood next to me with his hands on his knees and his back hunched over. “You know…” I said as I stood back up to my feet. “This is all… your fucking fault.” I

    There are two types of women in the world; those who dress modestly for Halloween, and those who use the holiday as an excuse to wear as little clothes as possible. In short, as a slut. Unfortunately for me, I was the latter. You just had to be a slutty little devil, didn’t you Allegra? The Porsche

    I stuck my body out of the passenger side window and shot out the front tires of the SUV to our right. It swerved multiple times before slamming into two Escalades behind it, exploding on impact. I tried to maneuver my body, twisting it in order to get a clear shot at the cars flanking the left of
