Chapter 71: Gearing Up

*Archie Donovan*It took us a few days to put the plan into motion, but surprisingly enough, everything went according to what we wanted. Thanks to Ezra, we managed to contact the Irish, and after I offered them all of Royce’s old territories, that seemed to entice them.Of course, they were skeptical at first, thinking this was some sort of trap—which it was, but they didn’t need to know that—however, I managed to mislead them by saying I had some conditions that should be discussed personally.For a second, I thought they wouldn’t take the bait. But when Myles agreed and said he and his brother would be here in a week, I almost let out a sigh of relief.But relief wasn’t exactly what I was feeling.If anything, I was dreading the day they would arrive.This would be the first time I’d be directly partnering with the FBI. I didn’t know what to expect, therefore I didn’t know what to tell my men to expect. We were going to conduct everything as usual, but it was hard to predict what

Chapter 72: The Holian Brothers

*Rosie Fay-Donovan*Watching the Holian brothers standing in front of us didn’t scare me as much as I thought it would. True, they had stepped out of the boat surrounded by so many men I could barely keep track of them, but I was confident we outnumbered them. Considering the hidden agents from the FBI, of course.Archie had a lot of men under his watch, but not everyone was in plain sight since we thought the Irish might think we were inviting them to a battlefield.Which, honestly, we were. In a way. I knew things were likely to go wrong as soon as the FBI made their appearance. I knew the risks, I had come prepared, but I wasn’t expecting to draw their attention in an unwanted way.I could feel Archie’s aura change drastically as he noticed the way the brothers were looking at me. I wasn’t comfortable either, but I was kind of used to men looking at me as if I were some sort of meal.The animosity in the air was palpable, but I wasn’t expecting anything different. But I could tell

Chapter 73: Side Effect

*Rosie Fay-Donovan*Whatever happened after I saw Archie fall to the ground was useless. I couldn’t find it within me to care. I should have reacted and fought back, but seeing him there, at my feet, covered in blood, I couldn’t find the strength I needed to move.I just dropped myself on top of Archie, shaking him aggressively, trying to get any type of response from him. But he was looking at me with glassy eyes, his stare focused on something beyond me. His tall, built body bounced back and forth as I yelled at him to answer me.“Archie, talk to me.”He hissed in pain, and I tried to put some pressure on his shoulder wound, but there was so much blood, its warmth enveloping my fingers as I tried to staunch the bleeding.I couldn’t find the other wound, I didn’t know where else he had been shot. He was wearing a vest, but maybe it could have hit him on the leg or…“Get out of here, Rosie,” he ordered in a low voice.I shook my head eagerly, my sight blurry from all the tears. I fe

Chapter 74: Christmas

*Rosie Fay-Donovan*Archie recovered just fine. It took him a few days to get back on his feet, but the shot he got in his calf wasn’t as damaging as we had previously thought.By the time his family got to New York, he was good as new. His shoulder still hurt, but the doctor had said it would be like that for a while still. That only pushed Archie to work harder in his workouts to strengthen his muscles again.Liam and Logan had arrived a couple of days ago, and even though I insisted that they stay with us at the penthouse, they politely refused. They were staying at a hotel at the end of our street, and they would spend most of the days with us anyway, so they only returned to their suites to sleep.Logan was also very occupied with his new collection, so he was constantly on his phone, having calls and meetings he couldn’t miss, so I could understand him wanting some privacy.Liam, on the other hand, hadn’t accepted our offer to stay in our apartment because of something else ent

Chapter 75: Epilogue

*Rosie Fay-Donovan*TEN YEARS LATER“Are Uncle Liam and Aunt Gaby coming to my birthday party?” Matias asked excitedly while we all gathered at the dining table to have breakfast.We named our second born after Matias, as a way to honor him and everything he did for our family. His death against Royce had a great impact on us—Archie especially—and when I suggested the idea while I was still pregnant, I could see the glint of approval and gratitude in Archie’s eyes. I knew then that our baby would be special and loved.“Your birthday is in three months. Why are you talking about it now?” And then there was Ella.Our firstborn was… something else. I guessed she had my personality—witty, sassy, and straightforward. She constantly bickered with her brother and made my life as a mom a bit harder than it had to be.She was also a daddy’s girl. Of course she would be.When I first told Archie I was pregnant, he stared at me for a whole minute without uttering a word or making a single mov
