OLIVER'S POV
We had finally arrived Uncle Luca's mansion and we drove in, as I greeted Flavio, the gatekeeper. I and my Men entered the sitting room and looked around, but didn't see anyone. Then, I heard Voices from the dinning room. Bingo
On walking to the dinning room, I heard Lois' voice. I was so happy within, she was conscious already. I halted my steps and listened to her conversation with Uncle Luca.
"I can't fall in love....I have been through a lot Lois, and I can't drag any innocent woman into my mess." He said to Lois.
"That's not good enough reason not to experience love, Uncle."
"I am a man with a dark past, a scary present, and a dangerous future. I am....."
And I decided it was time I announced my arrival, I cut into the discus

Lois's POVWe were all seated at the garden in Uncle Luca's mansion, and I haven't for once stopped thinking about what transpired between Oliver and I, yesterday night.After the little quarrel during dinner, Oliver hadn't spoken to me. I felt like he was angry at me. Through out the remaining time we ate, he said nothing.After dinner, he mouthed a 'good night uncle' and headed straight upstairs. I came into the room after assisting Sofiah with the dishes and having a brief random chat with Uncle.I entered the room, changed into my nighties and laid on the bed, with a novel of my favorite author in my hands. Nora Roberts always keeps it real.Oliver walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist, which was way too below his waistline, for my comfort and peace of mind. Walking t

LOIS' POVI was drawn out of my reverie by no other than Sofiah."Hey there, Ma'am" She called waving her hand in front of my face. "You were out for a while. Are you alright?""Yeah, yeah. I'm fine Sofie" I said looking up into her beautiful hazel brown eyes. This woman was lovely.She would be perfect for Uncle Luca...My subconscious piped.Seriously!?"Any issues?" I asked."No Ma'am. Just to know if you would love a cup of juice.""Yeah sure.....And it's Lois to you. Okay?""Yes... Yes Lois""Good" I smiled as she walked away.A moment later, Sofiah walked back into the Garden. She went straight to Oliver who was seating on the other side of the garden, a
Oliver's PovI had to leave quite early this morning due to some issues I had to take care of. Apparently Marco was biting more than he could chew. I had to look for a way to handle Eva fast, before things got out of hand.I think it was just the right time to let Lois know the whole truth. Yes, there were still skeletons in my closet sadly enough. I couldn't help but think how things would have turned out much differently, had I confronted my demons head on.I only had two options.Tell Lois the truth, or loose her when she finds out. And I knew it wouldn't be long until she did. I was already deep in, I had fallen in love with her again. She always had my heart all along. Somethings never change, and I learned this the hard way.All the high school bullying, the emotional bruises I tried giving to her, when I found out Nathan Black had been making pa
THIRD PERSON'S POVI immediately left miss Lois when he came over. I quickly walked in to the mansion and made my way to the kitchen. I tried my hardest to always avoid him. I was confused. Was I supposed to remain angry and bitter towards him because he was the cause of Zac's death? But on the other hand, Zac willingly gave his life for him.Zac adored him to that extent. He gave up his life for Luca, not considering the fact that he was leaving me behind and alone. I was supposed to be angry at Zac too, but I couldn't. He gave me a reason to live life again. I had nothing!My parents were murdered, and I was just a lucky girl, who happened to survive after being raped and seeing her parents brutally killed by her rapist afterwards. I was broken, half dead on the streets, when a guardian angel in form of a man came to my rescue.Zac was my savior. He rescued me from the possible hazards of the street, he s
OLIVER'S POVIt had been a long long journey. A total of 11 hours, fifteen minutes to get to America from Italy. We got to the guest house by 1 in the morning. As we walked into the reception, Laura the all time receptionist, did the favour of allocating rooms to everyone."Mr Grants" she smiled at me, your usual suite is ready, just call if you need anything."Yes we will be needing something" Lois cut in."Excuse me?" Laura replied, rather haughtily. I was about to talk, but Lois stepped on my toes, sending a silent message that she could handle the situation."I need a Rose water bath, please make it available soonest" Lois replied politely."Okay, that would be prepared in your room, and you are?"
LOIS' POV I woke up optimistic today, I was in a very light mood. It was finally a full house, everyone packed in yesterday. Oliver showed everyone to their rooms and the men made themselves comfortable in the boys quarters. Truth be told, I was still suprised. I couldn't believe we were in a situation like this, I thought of how much things had changed in my life within a short while. Being part of a Mafian family was a lot to digest, but I was trying my best. I joined Paige and her mum, to set the dinning table for breakfast. I hummed happily as we worked together, while Paige used the opportunity to catch up on different stuff. I thought of Oliver and a smile curled up my face. He was fast becoming the center of my world, my happiness. I had made up my mind, I was gonna tell him that I had fallen in love with him today. Wow!! I and Oliver had come this far
