I held onto the wheel tightly and as soon as my car was out in the world, bullets were fired on the roof and windshield that held strong. Bulletproof. Nice. I drove to the back of the mansion, getting their attention off where Faye was going to exit from. I heard shouts and five men came from seemingly nowhere, shooting at the car.I immediately slowed down and made the car come to a stop. The men looked up quizzically and I saw them slowly advancing."That's right. Come at me bitches," I said, tightening my hold on the wheel. The men inched closer and as soon as they were in reach, I turned on the lights to full blast and harshly brought my foot down to the gas.They were still trying to regain their sight and finally registered what was going to happen when the Benz knocked into the first three. The other two weren't so lucky as I was shaken in my seat, running over the bodies. I stopped and turned the gear, reversing, the car practically jumping with the dead weight I was running o

Luca's POV"Sir. He's awake."My gaze moved from my phone to Maddox. I slid the device into my pocket and walked across my now destroyed lawn, past the crashed car in the side of my building to where my men had tied up one of the survivors of the failed attack.I stood in front of the man who recently had a bullet wound in his stomach and knee. The sun shone brightly in the sky and there was a stiff breeze that blew past me. The man looked up, his eyes showing nothing but fear. The snake tattoo on the side of his neck was familiar. Sante Di Laura dared to send his men into my home."Why were you here?" I asked darkly, glaring at the now trembling man."I- I- it wasn't...""I don't understand gibberish so you better speak the fuck up. Now," I commanded."It was for revenge! Revenge for stealing from our boss," the coward said and I narrowed my gaze at him before turning to one of my men."Bring me the blowtorch," I told him and he went without a word. The coward was now scrambling with

I tried not to be impressed with the building whose garage we just parked but I couldn't. I knew it was Luca's right away, I didn't even need to look it up. It was some sort of company, God knows what he does with it but the building looked like it had over 100 floors and the lighting that came from the glass was perfect.Again, I tried not to be impressed.Luca and Faye got out of the car first and I managed to get two iron tablets out, swallowing them with the last of my orange juice. I actually felt much better than before. Not great but better. I hid the medicine bag under my shirt as I got out of the car, liming along with Faye and Luca.Was it me or were they walking slower?I sighed, deciding figuring that out wasn't my priority at the moment. We reached an elevator and Faye pressed the button to take us up. I also saw another button to go down, surprised there were more levels below this floor. One thing was certain. I was going down there one of these days. Hopefully, my leg

"We're out... I can't believe it," the girl next to me gasped out. She pushed her black hair out of her eyes as the breeze blew past it.I did the same to mine, looking at the land surrounding us. It was a plain field in the middle of nowhere but I could see the sun, the blue sky, the clouds. My eyes hurt from the light. We'd been underground in the safe house for so long and it was only six of us left.Six of us who'd escaped."We have to get going," I said to the other girls."Why?" a blonde one asked. Her hair wasn't even blonde anymore. It was brown with dirt. I wasn't in any better shape. "We're out. Jordan can't get us out here. We made it. We deserve to rest.""You think that Jordan doesn't know half the shit that goes on in the safe house? They know we are missing. We have to run. Now," I commanded."Who died and made you the fucking leader of the group?" One of the taller girls asked walking up to me with a glare on her face. "We made it out. That's that.""She's right. We ha

A bloody idiot.That's what this man was.A bloody Italian idiot."Wha... why?" I asked completely baffled. A marriage contract? Was he serious? I was rendered speechless.Me. Speechless.Hell honestly has frozen over.Luca sighed. "You didn't look through the original contract that Antonio used to buy you from your father. Some of the terms are permanent.""But you're the Don of this bloody mafia. You can just... release me," I said, babbling what first came into my mind."It's not that simple. This mafia is filled with very powerful men, men who know about that contract, Antonio made sure of that. I can't just let you go, even though they haven't seen or met you. I don't want them to start a coup and have me gun down half my mafia. That would just send this city into chaos," Luca explained.His words rang true, I'd heard of mafia families that were betrayed by their own. They were usually the right-hand men so that explains why Luca didn't have one. I wouldn't trust their asses eith
