•CAMILLA•My head throbbed as I lifted it and looked around. I vividly remembered someone carrying me from the car after the incident, and in my mind, I thought it was Santino.“Santino?” I called for him, desperately hoping he would tell me nothing had happened to our baby, but when I touched my stomach and felt a flutter, I laid my head on the pillow and released a sigh of relief.“She’s awake!” someone exclaimed, and the voice didn’t belong to Santino or anyone I knew.“Francesca?” I gasped when I saw her walking inside the door and closing it behind her.“Hey, Cammy,” she chuckled as she leaned forward. “I didn’t think you would wake up. It wouldn’t have been fun to bury you before having our last talk.”I got chills when she sat next to me. It scared me because I didn’t know what she meant or wanted to do with me.The last thing I remembered was someone picking up from the accident scene, and I blacked out, thinking it was Santino.“What am I doing here?”“You know what you’re do

•FRANCESCA•“Cecilia did nothing wrong to you. If you want to punish me, then kill me and get it over and done with. Killing Cecilia and framing me for her death would backfire against you.”I got up from the chair and looked at her, thinking that I cared if she had spent all her remaining years in jail or six feet underground.I just wanted her to feel the same pain I felt. She enjoyed her life when growing up and had everything she wanted, while I didn’t.“Do you know how kind I am toward you? My brother and I were planning to kill you and that little brat inside you, but because you and I were good friends, I thought we should talk, but now you have the nerve to threaten me?”“I’m not threatening you, Francesca. I’m telling you what would happen if you framed me for Cecilia’s death. You knew me as your boss, but you definitely don’t know what I’m capable of. So, if I were you, I would kill me and not give me an opportunity to get back at you for risking my life and my baby’s life.”

•SANTINO•“Where are they?” Lucius asked when I had gotten off the call and given Naya the cell phone.“They’re at the 589 nightclub’s old building in Manhattan. I knew she didn’t take her far. She wanted us to think she had taken Camilla far from the city so that she would have time to finish her job and run away before we could find her.”“Fuck. I’m glad the nightclub isn’t far. We will be there in less than ten minutes.”I scoffed as I turned around and looked at Lucius. “Thank you for helping me find her, but you should go home now. Camilla will be safe with me.”“No, Santino.” He scoffed, frowning. “I told you why I’m doing this, and I won’t go home before I’ve made sure Camilla is safe.”“I will call you when we get home, but right now, I just want to be there for Camilla and our unborn baby. Can you do that for her?”“You mean for you?” He leaned forward, closing the small gap between us. “I won’t go anywhere, Santino. If you have a problem with me being there for Camilla, I sug

•CAMILLA•“Mommy, wake up. Wake up, Mommy.” A voice whispered. "Wake up."When I opened my eyes, I felt disoriented because of the ceiling lights and the beeping noises, and after I looked around the room, I knew I was in the hospital, and had an IV drip connected to my arm.“Nico?” I called out, but when a hand reached out and grabbed my wrist, I realized it was Santino.“Hey baby, you’re awake.” He smiled as he leaned over and placed a gentle kiss on my forehead.“Where’s Nico?” I was sure that he was the one who woke me up, and I wanted to tell him how much I missed him.I was so close to not seeing my son again, and I didn’t want that to happen again before he knew how much I loved him and how much he meant to me.“We are in Manhattan Hospital. Nico’s home in Chicago, babe. We will be with him once you’re discharged, but the doctors want to ensure that you are okay before they let you go home,” he answered, but somehow, it didn’t help with the grief I felt in my heart.“What’s wro

•LUCIUS•“Camilla and her baby are safe. Can you let me go now? My mother and brother must be worried about me, and I don’t want them to worry about me. My brother, Tyler, is very aggressive and might suspect something went wrong and come to find me and Francesca.”Enzo kept yapping at the back of my car. I didn’t know what to do to get him to stop whining. Santino was still in the hospital and told me to wait outside with Enzo because he had organized someone to pick him up.“You’ve been talking for the last ten minutes, aren’t you tired? Santino and I told you we won’t let you go until we’ve ensured that Camilla is safe. We told you we would take you home.”“Tyler won’t wait until you take me home when you want. If you let me go now, I’ll tell him that Francesca’s death was my fault, and that you arrived in the building when she was already dead. He won’t do anything to you.”I chuckled. “What would your brother do to me and Santino after you both kidnapped Camilla and put her life
