ENZO DE-LUCA.

“LEVI!” I heard Yvette’s scream so loud, so ear piercing as she moved so fast my eyes could barely keep up to stay beside Levi, kneeling beside him with water already pouring from her eyes.

“ENZO! Levi is—”

No. No. No. NO!

Every drop blood in my body was frozen, my stomach tightened, and my grip on the trigger tightened even more as I delivered yet another bullet right into Quinn’s forehead before the gun slipped from my hand.

What did I do wrong? Why wasn’t he dead? I made sure I didn’t miss a vital point—

Fuck! No!

My mind drifted to the moment I was about to shoot back when we were in the warehouse, I’d caught a glimpse of Maeve, and she’d been so weak that she looked like she was about to fall.

At that moment… so that I could get to her before she falls, I’d missed. I thought I shot Quinn right through the heart, but I’d missed.

That moment I let my eyes leave my target, had just cost me my…. Bestfriend. Weak, I watched with blurry vision, my head pounding as I tried

    MAEVE HAWTHORN.“I’m telling you that Levi is driving me nuts.” Yvette cried as she did everything she could to calm the crying baby in her arms, the one Enzo and I had decided to name after Levi.Scarlett was carrying the peaceful baby girl in her arms, “This is why I love baby girls,” she cooed as she moved around with the baby in her arms. “Marian is just sleeping like the little angel she is.” She added, and I laughed.The twins were only three months and they had the energy of full on toddlers with their tantrums, but Marian was on the cooler side, she was either sleeping or peacefully laying in her cot, but Levi was a different case.He was always throwing tantrums whenever he could, and it was almost as though he’d made a promise to himself to not let his father and I rest.“If you’re complaining this much, what do you think Maeve and I should do?” Enzo chimed in as he took Levi from Yvette, and as soon Levi got in his father’s arms, he stopped crying.“Look, he’s no longer cry

    ENZO DE-LUCA.The hallway was quiet except for the hustling and bustling of emergencies on the other wing, I stood in front of the door to Maeve’s room, and I wanted to punch through the door, I wanted to break something, anything.I should have noticed that my distraction could cost me, I should have protected him.Closing my eyes and exhaling, I stepped into the room, and the moment I did, the weight hit me like a freight train. She was alone, lying on the bed, she was asleep, and Scarlett and Clara weren’t there.Where were they?“Enzo?” Her small voice called my name, and I felt my constricting chest constrict even more. “I sent Scarlett and Clara home, what—” She stopped talking when she saw the look in my eyes.I watched as she helped herself up, her face falling as she registered what had happened. The sterile smell of disinfectant, the faint scent of flowers from the corner table—it all collided with the images I couldn’t unsee. Levi. His face, his laugh, that smirk. Gone. Gr

    ENZO DE-LUCA.It’s been over nine hours, and they were still in surgery. What kind of surgery takes so long to conclude, the nurses walked in and out of the theater but none of them would talk to us.“Can you just tell us how he’s faring before I put a bullet in that damn skull of yours!” Yvette had finally snapped, she pinned the nurse into the wall with the gun pressed to her temple.Her teeth were clenched, her trigger finger dancing around the trigger, and hurriedly putting one step in front of the other. I rushed towards Yvette, and yanked her away from the nurse who rushed out of the waiting room at once.“What do you think you’re doing?” I asked, taking the gun from her. I didn’t blame her, I knew exactly why she did what she did, I knew that the impatience and the fact that we didn’t know anything was eating her up.“I was gone for how long, and you’re about to shoot a nurse?” The word came out as a question even though I’d meant it to come out as a statement.Yvette didn’t sa

    MAEVE HAWTHORN.I watched as Quinn grinned even though it was evident that he was going to die, and I felt a kind of satisfaction that had come as a rush so strong that I felt my knees weaken, my whole body finally gave in to the fatigue that had raked me.I’d been trying as hard as I could to make sure that I didn’t pass out because I wanted to see where this ends, but seeing Quinn on the floor, completely immobile had apparently been enough for me.“Hey! Are you okay?!” The sound of Yvette’s voice mixed with the loud sound of gunshots that echoed in the room so loud that I felt as though my eardrums were going to be bursted.“MAEVE!” Another familiar voice, the one I would recognize even if I was in a coma called out loudly, but the pain had been so intense that not only could I not remain standing, my eyes were barely open.“I told you to get her out of here, didn’t I?” I heard Enzo bark at Yvette, and I could feel a small smile tugging at the side of my mouth as I reached up to cu

    ENZO DE-LUCA.Anger.Everything I felt was nothing short of pure anger, rage, and fury that I couldn’t put out no matter how hard I tried. And I didn’t even want to put it out, hell, I wanted to take it out on him until he’s nothing but dust on the ground.“Whoa, did I push a button?” Quinn said, although his voice was nothing short of background noise right now. I’d already shot his hand, but he was still standing and it was almost like he couldn’t feel the bullet wound.He’s strong, and that would make this all the more interesting.He had dared to not only kidnap her, but she was all beaten up by the time I got here. Her clothes were already ripped to shreds, and her skin, her beautiful skin, had been tainted by his filthy hands.My head fell back, everything in my field of vision had gone red. My eyes closed as I placed a palm on my face, covering my eyes as I exhaled as slowly as I could.I could still hear the sound of gunshots outside, bodies thudding, and I knew that I didn’t
