Unspoken Truths - Chapter 11MatthewAfter finishing the perimeter check, I secured both surviving guards and dragged them into my car; without being seen. I was sure one of the Russian idiots would’ve heard or spotted us, but I guess whatever they were moving into the house was more important. I need the answers, but for that, I have to get back to Damian’s and check the surveillance footage. But first, these two need the Doc. He’s been called and is already enroute to the Familia Hospital.The two kids in my back seat are in pain, trying their hardest to talk, but every time they open their mouths, it’s like pain shoots through them. “Hang on, guys. Pain relief’s only fifteen minutes away,” I shoot back over my shoulder.The one next to Nico lets out a loud yelp, scaring the shit out of me. My car skids into oncoming traffic, but I correct it before anything happens. “What the fuck? You trying to kill me too?” I yell back, heart pounding.I don’t know who this kid is, but he ca

Unspoken Truths - Chapter 13SareenaDamian and Nono are both here. They’re both here and they’re working together. My heart is full. I need to fight. I have to fight to get back to them. They both need me. But more than that… I need them.There’s commotion around me. Muffled sounds. Footsteps. Movement. A nurse? Always another nurse.My years of schooling are paying off. Even in this haze, I understand everything they’re describing to Damian. I hear medical terms, medications, procedures. Words most wouldn’t catch, but I do.Damian is making sure I have the best care. Of course he is.I feel someone lift me up; gently. Is it bedtime already? Is Damian here to hold me again; to pull me into his arms the way he always did so he could finally get some sleep? No. They’re placing something on me. Over my head. Covering my ears. A headset. Jazz. It’s jazz music. My favorite. He knows I love jazz. He remembered.The smooth rhythm seeps through me. I let go. For the first time in wh

Unspoken Truths - Chapter 15Gino“I said, I want you to repeat every single word you just said to Alexandra. Now!” I roared.“G-G-Grandpa, that was a lie!” she sobbed. “I only said it to scare Alexandra. Please, Grandpa, listen to me. Dad always taught me to instill fear in your opponents, that’s all I was trying to do!”This was it, the absolute last straw. I wasn’t accepting another betrayal from Sophia. She was working with the Bratva.“How could you, Sophia? The Bratva killed your grandmother, and you’re working with them?” I shook my head, my voice trembling with disbelief. “I can’t accept this. I won’t let it go.”“Alex, get the guards, and my phone. This ends now.” I watched Alexandra leave, then turned back to Sophia. “Get ready. You’re going back to Yonkers, and I’m letting Luca handle this betrayal however he sees fit.” I tried to keep my voice steady, but the fury bubbled just beneath the surface.Sophia started crying and dropped to her knees. She kept begging me to tr

Unspoken Truths - Chapter 17GabriellaIt’s been three days, and we’re still hiding the fact that Sareena is awake. Sareena’s strength is returning fast and even Dr. Danov can’t believe her recovery.Mr. Morelli still hasn’t shown up, and that surprises me. He’s the only family she has. He does check in daily, sure, but there’s a difference between calling and actually being here. Presence matters. And Damian… that bastard is still pretending he cares. I’ve been texting him every few hours, but I don’t tell him anything real. He lost every right to know how she’s doing.On the fourth day, I walk into the hospital and stop dead in my tracks. Sareena is sitting up in bed. She’s wide awake, alert, and devouring the biggest breakfast I’ve ever seen. For a second, I just stare. Then, before I interrupt her happiness, I pull out my phone and text Damian.Just got to the hospital. Nurse confirmed everything is stable; vitals and brain function are steady. I’m here. Get your stuff done and

Unspoken Truths - Chapter 19GabriellaMom was asleep by 9 p.m. She’s been running the gym and personally teaching six yoga classes a day for months now. That has to be exhausting, both physically and mentally. With her knocked out and Dad busy at his ‘important’ meeting, sneaking out of the house was a breeze.My guards already knew what was going on, so I didn’t need to do much convincing. They also knew Zio Luca would have their heads if they so much as annoyed me. I’m the family princess and Vincent, of course, is the family prince. We get a lot of special treatment because of who our parents are. It’s not fair, but that’s how it’s always been.I threw some clothes, underwear, bras, socks, and shoes into a suitcase and headed straight for the hospital. I knew Sareena was planning to leave, I just didn’t expect it to be so soon, and honestly, I couldn’t shake the guilt. If I hadn’t interfered when Damian first approached me, maybe Sareena would still be in the UK, becoming the c
