LOGINEpilogue Marissa LUCIA POV It has been ten years since I married Alaric, and today is our wedding anniversary and my birthday. I smiled at the mirror trying on a better necklace for my dress.Sixteen year old Levi walked in, his blonde style, his features more his father but with my eyes.“Mom,” he smiled, kissing my cheek.“Hey baby,” I said, he rolled his eyes.“Don't call me that, I am not a baby,” he said, I smiled. I love teasing him.“But you are still my baby,” I said to him. He groaned“I am not starting with you, your husband is nervous as hell. I am sure he was busy worrying if you would like his gifts,” Levi said, I smiled.“I am sure I would love it. This or that,” I asked him.“Mummy chose one, and I should say that your husband is a simp,” he said, as he took the necklace from me.“Wear the one with the ruby,” he added, I hit his hands.“Don't call my husband a simp,” Levi scoffed. “As if,” “Levi!!!!,” “Levi!!,” “Shit!.. Nova.. please mummy please tell her I am n
Marissa LUCIA POV“Lucia,” “Lucia,”My eyes went wide open, quickly sat up remembering how Alaric was shot…my breathing went out of control. I am having a panic account “Hey,” Alaric said, I turned to him and touched his face, am I dreaming?.“Alaric?,”’“Yes,” “You are okay, I saw you got shot….I…,” “Yes, I am…and you scare me,” he said, kissing my palm.I looked around the room, Nova and Levi rushed towards me. “Mummy!,”I smiled, hugging them. I kissed their hair… Emilio, Lucien, Ayesha, Giuseppe and Aria, Matt.“I am glad you woke up,” Lucien said, as he kissed my forehead.“Why is everyone here?,” “We were all scared, you went into a coma for a month, you woke up two hours ago and went into shock, then woke up again,” Alaric explained.I smiled. “I am fine now,” Emilio walked to me with a bouquet of flowers. “Here Dolcezza,”“You scared me,” he added. I smiled and took the flowers from him.“Don't scare like that again,” Ayesha said, smiled my eyes teary “Thank you all for
Alaric POV.Lucien shot at the man that was near to Lucia bed.. A bullet pierced into my right arms. The pain brought me out of my thoughts.Chalres points a gun at me. “You brought them here!,” Chalres said to Stella, Stella looked shocked and back away to a wall“You bastard,” I cursed, holding my bleeding hand.“Don't move,” Charles said to Emilio and Lucien.“Or will blow off his head,” Charles added.“You should have taken my offer, Carlton. You should have…. remember my promise to you?,” Lucien asked.“Drop your gun or I will blow off his head,” Chalres said, I could see the fear in his eyes. Not a lot of people have seen Lucien's bad side, but people said he might be more ruthless than his sister and I have seen what he could do.“Drop it,” “We don't need a gun to finish you off, pezzo di merda,” Emilio said, as he dropped his gun and Lucien did the same.“Kick it away, and you too,” Chalres said, turning to me, and did as he ordered.“Good,”“Now, can we have a little cha
Alaric POV“Stella,” “What, why did you bring me here?,” she asked, playing dumb.“We know you are working with Chalres you both took my sister and her kids,” Lucien said coldly.“What makes you accuse me like that, what proof do you have? I need to speak with the police!,” she asked, rudely.Lucien walked to the table where tools were placed and took a nail remover.“Because you are at the restaurant and I know it not a coincidence,” I said “That is a place everyone could be at, any time” she said, I didn't not tell that was where Lucia and the kids were taken. She definitely knew something.“Why are you back in the city,” I asked, and she shrugged.“I am here to see my parents with my husband,” she answered.“You know I would have believed you. If you haven't killed your husband,” Lucien said, she turned to him and saw him walking closer to with a nail remover, her face turned white.Emilio stood at the door watching. “My sister is kind-hearted…she would never see you as a threat
Marissa LUCIA POVWe were moved to a bigger room, but the kids and I still huddled in a corner of the bed. Chalres walked in smiling, I ignored him..The chain used to keep me in place has reduced in length. Making my movement a restraint.“I brought you snacks,” he said, placing the snacks on the side table.“I kept staring at the window while stroking Levi's hair.“I am going to make you forget about him, we will be happy,” “How do you want to make me forget,” I said looking out of the window.“I have been creating a pill that makes people forget their past, it have been selling fast in the black market,” “So, you are planning to give me and my children that?,” I asked, turning to him.“Our children, yes. You won't remember anything at all,” he answered. I stared at the man, and scoffed.“So you actually believe my brother and Alaric could find us, that's why you are in a hurry to feed us the pill,” I smirked.He frowned. “You will be taking the pill tomorrow,” he said as he sto
Alaric POV “Did they find her?,” I asked Lucien. He shakes his head.“We will find her, she might be using a new identity and disguise,” Lucien said, I frowned.“Then maybe she knows we find out, that is why…,”“She is running from someone too, we just need to get our hands on her,” Lucien said, he closed his eyes. My phone rang. My assistant. “Yes,” “Sir a package arrived at the Monroe estate for you,” he said, I nodded.“Send it over,” “Okay,”“What is that?,”’“Another package has arrived,” “Where is it?,” “My assistant will bring it over,” An hour passed by, we waited at the Alden lodge, I watched him walk in. “Sir,” he said as he walked closer, one of Lucien's men took the package from him and examined it.“It is safe sir,” the man said, Lucien nodded.“Open it,” Lucien ordered, and the men opened it.“A burner phone,” the mab said, and then brought out a new object “And a note, sir,” he added.“What does the note say?,” I asked. He read the note.“Call me,”’I looked
Marissa POV“Ma’am, Miss Raina was attacked.”Wait…what? How?“How did it happen?” I asked my assistant.“She was shot in a coffee shop.”“Okay, where is she right now?”“She is with us at the base. She is getting treated.”“I want you to double the guards around Nova and create an alibi for my arr
Marissa POVI walked to the back of the restaurant to actually challenge both Lucien and Giuseppe. I was still thinking of how to walk in on them and ask them why they didn’t tell me.“We can't let Lucia know. She would turn the underworld upside down,” I could hear Lucien's voice through the door.
Alaric POVAs soon as we climbed into the car, Stella’s face turned sour. I didn’t have to know what she was thinking, so I just sat in the car and ignored her.“You don’t buy me flowers… and Marissa hates me,” she said. I turned my face blank.She and Marissa hate each other. I sighed mentally.“S
Alaric POVIt has been two weeks since Lucia became my secretary, even if she was just there in name. I had tried to call Marissa to demand an explanation, but she had refused to talk to me.All Lucia did was spite Stella or flirt with me, even in public.
