Chapter 31: The Call The farmhouse stayed quiet for two more days after Elena sent the video. No new messages. No cars on the dirt road. No shadows moving in the trees. Matteo’s men patrolled in shifts, but the tension eased just enough for everyone to breathe. Elena spent the mornings in the kitchen again. Cooking simple things—pancakes one day, scrambled eggs the next. The guys ate like they hadn’t seen food in weeks. Luca always stole extra bacon. Nico ate slow, watching her move around like it was the best show he’d ever seen. Matteo just watched her. Always watching. She felt their eyes more now. Not hungry like before. Something steadier. Like they were memorizing her in the daylight. That afternoon she sat on the porch swing. Sun warm on her face. Bare feet on the wood. One of Matteo’s shirts again, sleeves rolled up. No bra. No panties. Just comfortable. Luca came out first. Sat beside her. Threw an arm over the back of the swing. “You look good out here,” he said. She
Chapter 30: Daddy’s First Move The negative test sat on the bathroom counter like a quiet promise. Elena stared at it one more time before tossing it in the trash. Relief mixed with a strange emptiness in her chest. She had expected panic, maybe tears. Instead she felt… steady. She walked back into the bedroom. The three of them were still there, waiting. Matteo sat on the edge of the bed, elbows on his knees. Luca leaned against the wall, arms crossed. Nico stood by the window, looking out at the empty driveway. Elena climbed onto the bed. Sat in the middle. “It’s negative. False alarm.” Luca pushed off the wall. “Good. Or bad. Whatever you need it to be.” Matteo looked at her. “You alright?” She nodded. “Yeah. Just… thinking. If it happens later, I want it. But right now? This is enough. Us. Here.” Nico turned from the window. “We’ve got time.” They didn’t push. Didn’t start touching her right away. They just sat with her. Matteo’s hand on her knee. Luca’s fingers brushing h
Chapter 29: First Pregnancy Scare The farmhouse had settled into a strange kind of rhythm. Days blurred together with no raids, no sudden moves, no new threats crashing through the door. Vittorio’s promised midnight attack never came. The traitor’s intel turned out half-true—men had gathered, cars had rolled, but something made them pull back at the last second. Maybe cold feet. Maybe a leak on their side. Matteo’s crew stayed sharp, guards doubled on the perimeter, but the quiet stretched on. Elena woke up one morning feeling off. Her breasts ached when she rolled over. Heavy. Tender. She pressed a hand to them and winced. Nausea rolled through her stomach, not bad enough to run to the bathroom, but enough to make coffee smell wrong. She sat on the edge of the bed. Matteo was already up, shirt on, checking the cameras on his phone. Luca snored softly beside her. Nico lay on his back, eyes open, staring at the ceiling like he was thinking hard. Elena touched her lower belly. Flat
. Elena stood at the counter in nothing but one of Matteo’s old black T-shirts. It hung loose on her, slipping off one shoulder, hitting mid-thigh.It's been 2 day since they've been expecting her dad and his gang but still nothing. No collar around her neck anymore. No silver ring pressing into her skin. Just faint marks that were already fading, and the quiet certainty that she didn’t need anything else to prove she belonged here. She poured four mugs. Black for Matteo. Two sugars for Luca. Cream for Nico. Hers plain, the way she’d started liking it. Luca came in first. Hair still messy. He wrapped his arms around her from behind, chin resting on her shoulder. “Morning,” he murmured. Kissed the side of her neck once. Soft. No teeth. Elena leaned back into him. “Morning. You sleep okay?” “Better when you’re in the middle. Always do.” Nico walked in next. Quiet steps. He took his mug, brushed a light kiss to her temple. “You look… settled,” he said. She smiled a little. “I f
Chapter 27: Comfort in the Quiet The traitor was tied to a chair in the basement. Matteo had handled the questioning himself. Short. Brutal. The man talked fast—entry points, numbers of men Vittorio was bringing, the exact hour they planned to hit. Midnight. Tonight. After the confession, Matteo shot him once in the head. No ceremony or words. Just the dull pop of the silencer and the slump of a body. Elena didn’t watch. She waited upstairs in the living room, wrapped in a blanket on the couch. When Matteo came back up, hands washed clean, he looked at her like he expected her to flinch. She didn’t. Instead she stood. Walked straight to him. Slid her arms around his waist and pressed her face to his chest. “I’m not scared,” she said quietly. “Not of this. Not of you.” Matteo exhaled hard. His arms came around her tight. “You should be. We’re monsters.” “You’re my monsters.” Luca and Nico appeared from the hallway. Luca wiped a spot of blood off his knuckles with a rag. Nico c
The New Safe House They moved at dawn. No packing. Just the clothes on their backs, a duffel of cash, weapons, and Elena. Matteo drove fast through back roads. Luca sat in the passenger seat with a rifle across his lap. Nico was in the back with Elena, arm around her shoulders, keeping her steady. The new place was deeper in the hills. An old farmhouse Matteo’s crew had bought cash last year. Stone walls. High fences. Cameras everywhere. No neighbors for miles. Elena stepped inside first. The air smelled like pine and fresh paint. Big open living room. Stone fireplace. Wide staircase. A kitchen with a long table that looked made for more than eating. Matteo locked the door behind them. Triple bolts. Then he turned to her. “Welcome home, princess. Again.” She looked around. “This one feels… permanent.” Luca dropped the duffel. Grinned. “It is. No more running every week. We’re digging in.” Nico set his bag down gently. “You okay?” Elena nodded. Touched her colla
