Chapter Forty-Four
I stare at Tati, dumbfounded. Has she lost her mind? There is no other woman. I'm crazy in love with her. I know I shouldn't keep secrets, but I'm not ready to tell Tatianna about my Mama or any of the crazy things I have been dealing with. What would she think of the threatening messages I have been getting lately. She doesn't realize the security I have on us and our kids. I think fast, it's either I let her in on her surprise or worry her."Tati, you are the only woman for me, this I swear. The only thing I have been hiding is a surprise for you."At that very moment, the limo stops outside of the restaurant. I let out a sigh of relief. At least I may get buy with not revealing Tatianna's surprise just yet.Tatianna's shoulders ease like a weight that has been lifted. The driver opens our door, cutting off our conversation. "Where are we?" Tatianna asks as she steps out the door.I take her hand in mine as I stare up at the sign thChapter Forty-Five We left the restaurant and barely made it to the car before Axon grabbed hold of me and kissed me with such passion, it took my breath away. I kissed him back with equal measure. The driver raises the glass partition so that Axon and I can have more privacy. I move closer to him and climb up on his lap. My dress hikes up my leg, leaving my black lace panties exposed. Axon's hand grasps my behind while his other hand caresses my breast. My eyes close as I moan in ecstasy. Six weeks without him feels like a lifetime. I nibble on his lip as he pushes his pelvis into me. My hips move with the motion of the car. Axon takes his hands and grabs hold of my thong ripping it entirely off me, leaving me exposed. He then unbuttons and unzips his pants and his large veiny cock springs to life. I gasp as he is inside of me in one swift motion.
Chapter Forty-Six Axons POV We rode back home in comfortable silence; I couldn't ask for a better night. Tatianna's head is on my shoulder, and I'm currently going through some files that Marco had sent me. He is the best hacker I know, yet he can't figure out who sent that text or who killed my Mama. Maybe I can find something in these files. I've been preoccupying my time with Tatianna and her surprise. But now it's time I get back to what I've set out to do, and that is to find my mother's killer and to have my revenge. I scan a paper; it's mom's original will. The property list goes on for miles. The wording of the document throws me off. In the event of mine and my husband Giovanni Amato's passing, my properties and
Chapter Forty-Seven We rush around the house to finish packing. Clothing is strung from one side of our room to the other. Tatianna already has like five huge bags packed. You would think that she's planning to stay months instead of a few weeks. While she is finishing backing Bennie's and Bella's things, I make a few phone calls to get the jet ready and ring for a private car. The one thing I am most thankful for is not having to fly commercial airlines with kids. I look around the home one last time to make sure nothing is forgotten before joining Tati and the kids in the car. As luck would have it, the private airstrip is only minutes from our house. We arrive at the airstrip and load up on the private jet. Bella looks around excitedly. She has done this every tim
Chapter Forty-eight The turbulence of the plane jolts me awake. I can hear Tati and the kids stirring from the next room. Looking down at my phone, I see it's almost 7 a.m, which means it's nearly 1 p.m; in Italy. The captain comes over the intercom, telling us to fasten our seat belts. In a few minutes, we touched down in Italy. Bella runs out of the cabin and takes her seat next to me; I fasten her up. "Papa, are we there yet?" Bella asks with a toothy grin. "Almost Pumpkin, only a few minutes more." "Yay! I can't wait to see Grandpapa!" Bella bounces in her seat. Tati comes out next, carrying Bennie; she takes her seat with a sleepy yawn. "Good morning Tati or shoul
After the conversation with Vito, I am even more curious about the Barone Family. If the Godfather won't mess with this Family, then how powerful are they? I go into our bedroom and shut the door. If Vito can't, and won't tell me, then there is only one way I can find out. Picking up my phone, I call Marco. "Yeah, Boss," Marco says. "Marco, the files that you have sent me to say nothing about the Barone Family. I want to know their connection to my Family. Why were Mamma and Father determined to ally? Who is this Family?" "Uh, Boss," I hear Marco stutter. "Yeah, Marco," "The Barone Family is one of the most powerful families in Italy. Not even the Godfather himself can contr
Chapter Fifty "Papa, why are you sleeping?" I feel my eyeballs being pried awake. "Come on, let's go! We get to see Zia." I look up to see Bella shaking me awake with her tiny palms on my duvet. "Bella let Papa sleep," I say half-awake. Tati rolls over, yawning, and places the pillow over her head. "But Papa, the suns awake, Let's go!" As much as I want to lay in bed and sleep, I know that will not happen. Bella is a very persistent four-year-old, and apparently, she is on a mission. "Alright, Alright, princess, I'm getting up," I say as I lift the cover, leaving the warmth of the k
Fifty-One After leaving the Don's Office, I feel like the air has left my lungs. My heart feels heavy, and my mind is in a daze. Does Vito realize what he is asking of me? I have spent my whole adult life trying to forget the things that I have done and seen. My father had been grooming me and showing me how to run the family business. A part of me knew that my father's company went further than just arms smuggling and illegal drugs. I hoped that I would never have to get my hands dirty or watch what goes on at my father's compound. It was on my fifteenth birthday that I lost all and any respect I had for my dad. I remember the day so vividly. The company had been short on money from their sales. I am not talking about small change either; we were missing millions. My dad's trusted advisor, Ivan, found the
Chapter Fifty Two Axon has been so cold and distant. I don't know what happened at Bianca's house, but whatever it was, it wasn't good. Bella was devastated when Axon got into the car and demanded us to leave. She's been begging to see her aunt since we've arrived. The ride back to my Papi's house was quiet and awkward. It's strange Axon is acting like he did after Bennie was born. It's almost like he is hiding something. I'm starting to wonder if coming to Italy to see my parents was such a good idea. At least I have my Mamma to spend time with me. Today we are going dress shopping while Axon and Papi are watching the kids. It feels awkward having constant surveillance on us. In America, I have one bodyguard, yet here I have an army. It would be nice to go shopping like an average person and not worry about my family's safety. I pick up my phone and try to call Bianca once more. It would be nice if she would go with me as she promised. I feel
