CHAPTER FIVE: 

                   Seth's Pov 

Her eyes widened for the third time now as she heard me call her fake name, her pretty red lips parted in shock then shut again. 

"If I find out you are lying to me, I will kill you" She threatened and walked away. 

I smirked watching her talk to her employees, probably telling them to evacuate the bar. 

She hasn't changed a bit. 

That pretty copper hair tied up in a ponytail, her curvy body still exquisite as I remembered. 

She doesn't remember me though, not that I expected her to, it would complicate things for me. 

I was supposed to take her a few weeks ago, after stalking her in the shadows for a month now I found myself changing the plan. 

I didn't want to rush things, I wanted her to follow me willingly and I'm thankful I finally got what I wanted. 

Father would be pleased. 

But there is one problem though, she has a son. 

When did that happen? 

Was that why she ran away? 

My jaw clenched as I imagined her with another man. The thought of that makes me want to find him and put a bullet in his skull. 

Are they still together? 

Did she elope with him? 

Don Santino burned down the streets looking for his daughter. He even accused us of taking her, but Father reminded him that our families stayed away from each other. 

I couldn't tell him I had broken that rule and fucked Don Santino's daughter when I saw her at one of my parties, she didn't know who I was and it was perfect. I was blown away by her beauty and even though I had seen her before in pictures. It was nothing compared to the real thing. 

She is beautiful in a devastating way, her voice soft and feminine hiding the cruelty she possesses. 

As much as I like reminiscing about that night I couldn't start now because I won't be able to walk around with a raging boner, and I only replay those moments when I'm alone in my room with my fist wrapped around my dick. 

I stood up and took my helmet with me as I walked out of the bar, the customers were starting to leave and there was only a little time left before those street urchins raid this place. 

It's not my turf so I can't intervene although I had last night. I made sure I left no one alive to avoid any questions. I also paid the convenience store to get access to the cameras and I wiped the footage. 

Were those part of the job? 

No. 

I waited for her but she was taking too long, then I caught her heading for her car with a kid in her arms. 

I should have known she wouldn't listen to me, so I walked towards them. 

"You don't understand honey, we need to go now," She said to the toddler. 

"But why?" He asked and looked over her shoulder, my feet came to a screeching halt. 

The light reflected in his eyes and he furrowed his brows as he stared at me, brown hair and eyes identical to mine. 

He is a mini copy of my mother. 

What in the world is going on? 

How is this possible? 

She turned as she noticed I was behind them and she glared at me, "Stay the hell away from us" She warned and my throat went dry as I tried to find the words to say. 

Is he mine? 

"Mummy, who is this?" The little guy asked his mother not taking his eyes off me. 

I felt a tight grip on my chest as he stared at me. 

Is this what I'm thinking? 

This changes everything. 

What the fuck am I supposed to do now? 

"He is nobody, come on let's-"

Those words were disrupted as a gunshot was fired, three cars drove into the parking lot with guns out the window as they shot at the bar, and glass shattered as they fired more shots at the bar. 

I didn't think before I threw myself over them shielding both of them, and I took out the gun from my belt. 

"Keep your heads down! Get out of here and don't use the car they know it's yours" I ordered as more shots were fired. 

They will stop soon and get out of the car. 

"How do I get out without my car?" She asked and I cursed under my breath. 

"Hand him over" I replied and she shook her head as she held him, closing his ears with her hands. 

"I can't-"

"Give him to me! I'm trying to help!" I snapped over the noise and she reluctantly handed him over. 

He clung to me and I carried him racing toward my bike, I put him down behind the bike and squatted to his height. 

"Cover your ears and wait here I'm going to go get your mother, okay?" 

He nodded, placing his hands on his ears and I ruffled his hair before heading back. 

"Let me go!" 

I heard Rosella's screams and I ran towards her car, the asshole was dragging her from behind with his gun on her head.

I saw red. 

"Stay still goddamnit! I got the bitch-"

I shot his head and he released her, dropping on the ground. Rosella's eyes widened and she picked up the gun the dead guy was holding and pointing it at me. 

"Don't be a fool" I growled and she glowered at me. 

"Where is my son?" She demanded, they stop shooting and they will find us the moment they get out of that car. 

"He is safe, we need to get rid of this and get the fuck out now" I replied and she nodded. 

Her ponytail flipped as she turned around and shot at whoever was behind her, I realized we were surrounded and got to work. 

I shot at men in the car making sure they were dead before I checked on her, She had one of the fuckers in a headlock as she choked him to death. 

She looked so hot doing that just like last night when she took down six men all by herself, she has Santino's blood running through her veins so I'm not surprised. 

Beautiful but lethal. 

Her skin was flushed as she panted for breath, and dead bodies were scattered all over the place. 

Twenty men from my count. 

If I recall correctly they were twenty-two… 

I felt movement behind me and my eyes widened as I saw the fucker behind Rosella with his gun raised, she had the same look on her face as she gazed behind me and I didn't think before I raised my gun and shot at the fucker behind her at the same time she raised her gun shooting at whoever was behind me. 

She exhaled after seeing that it was the last of them and I was still in shock from what had happened. 

It felt as if my heart was in my throat as he pointed the gun at her. 

She had saved me too. I could have turned and shot at the guy behind me but I didn't want her to get hurt. 

What the hell am I doing? I'm supposed to make this hurt. 

I walked towards her and watched as her shoulders slumped in relief. Unaware of the danger she was yet to face. 

"We are good now-"

"How old is the boy?" I asked coldly and she must have noticed the change in my voice as I hovered over her and she looked up at me with those alluring jade green eyes. 

"Why do you ask?" She questioned. 

"Just answer the damn question, Rosella," I gritted out. 

She backed away from me as I called her real name. 

"Who- How did you know my name?" She stumbled on the body behind her but managed to remain standing as she took steps backward. 

"I think you already know the answer to that, now tell me" I urged. 

"He's seven years old this year," She replied. 

He could be mine. 

She has been gone for six years and from what I heard she was pregnant before she ran away from home at the time we hooked up. I'm not sure yet but he is a replica of my mom so I will take my chances. 

I pointed the gun at her. 

"Change of plans, you are coming with me and you are going to be a good girl if you don't want to lose your son" I threatened even though it was an empty threat it worked on her. 

"What do you want from me? Why are you here?" She glared at me. 

"I'm here to take you back home, Rosie, oh how your parents have missed you" I taunted as she quavered obviously. 

"I'm going to kill you" She seethed. 

"I'll be looking forward to that threat, Little Fox"
