Chapter 60Alessia’s POVThings were going quite smoothly the next few days after the Americans arrived, and everyone was settled in their rooms. I didn't think these men would get along, but they proved me wrong, and somehow I think Bella has something to do with it.She is a tough bitch and doesn't take shit from anyone. It's amazing to think that they are actually gang members, but once you are in their company, you can tell they are nice people. I never thought that I would get attached to them, but life has shown me that I can't judge a book by its cover. I never thought that people like them would be the ones who saved me from my so-called parents. Speaking of parents, I can't wait to see mine after all these years. Just thinking about them brings tears to my eyes. Who would have thought that my life would change this much?I haven't seen Johnny all day. He and the rest were busy in the office going over the plan that's going to end Lorenzo, Sergei, and his father in a few days.
Chapter 61Alessia’s POVWe stayed in the office. No one spoke, and no one moved. We waited. This is it; this is what was supposed to happen, but we didn't think it would be this soon. We didn't plan for them to attack first. My gut feeling says Carter told them about our plans. Thinking about him makes my blood boil.If I find out he sold us out, I will be the one dealing with him!I can tell Viona is scared I know I am scared shitless. What if they find us?Will Johnny be in time to rescue us? I felt a hand on my shoulder, and I turned my head around to look at Viona."We are going to be okay." She tried to comfort me, but I could hear the fear in her voice. I knew she was trying to be brave.I smiled, squeezing her hand in return. "I know your brother won't let anything happen to us."That's when we heard the gunshots. This is it. I don't know how we are going to protect ourselves against these mafia men.We were holding on to each other now. I can only imagine all the bodies lying
Chapter 62Alessia’s POV"Mamma, pappa?" I said as I entered their room. We came to the house where Johnny's mother is staying, seeing that the house back in Rome needs some repair, or rather a makeover, after what happened a few weeks ago.All of us were exhausted and took a few days off. Many of our men were injured, and some are dead. The Russians withdrew from the fight after Sergei gave them the order to stop. Lorenzo lost many men, and the others ran away, seeing that they were losing against our people and the Americans.Luckily, the Americans only had people injured. Mason got his fiancé back safely, and they will be heading back to the USA in a few days. Stefanie is a down-to-earth girl; she has long black hair and blue eyes. When I saw her and Mason together, I knew that they loved each other just by the way they acted whenever they were together. She has been kidnapped for six months and tortured every day, thinking no one will rescue her after Lorenzo told her Mason thinks
Chapter 63Alessia’s POVIt's been three weeks since I found out that I'm pregnant. Bella is the only one who knows I'm pregnant. I asked her not to tell anyone until I had told Johnny. Mason and Stefanie have already left, saying they need to take care of a few things back home. The last week, Johnny has been acting strangely; he always seems to not want to spend time with me, which is beginning to bug me. That's one of the reasons I haven't told him about the pregnancy yet. He would come to bed when I was already asleep and be gone before I woke up. Every time I text or call him, he says he is busy with some important meetings and that he will talk to me later. That's why I was surprised when he texted me this morning, telling me to go shopping with the girls and to treat myself to something beautiful to wear tonight because he wants to take me out.“Girls, I'm hungry and tired," I moaned as we went into the sixth shop for today."We will get something to eat after we finish shopping
Chapter 64 Johnny's POV The church was filled with our closest friends and family. I was standing at the altar talking to Ciro. "Are you ready to make her your wife?" he asked with a grin. "I have never been more ready." My mother walked up to me, "Your bride is nervous," she whispered. "I will talk to her," I said, walking away to find my bride. I knocked on her door when Camilla opened it. "Thank God you are here she's freaking out!" She said pulling me into the room leading me to the bathroom door and I can't help laughing at how stressed the girls look all because of my wife-to-be. "Alessia baby?" I knock on the door. "Johnny? What are you doing here?" She asked frantically when she heard my voice. "I'm here to talk to you. I was told you were freaking out." "I'm afraid you will leave me once I get fat," she sniffed, and I wish I could take her in my arms and tell her that she will never get fat in my eyes. "Baby you know that will never happen I love you for you, not f
Chapter 1Johnny’s POVI was driving home after a business deal went wrong. I'm pissed off and mad at the little fica {Cunt} who betrayed me. If there is one thing I can’t stand it’s a rat. When I get my hands on him, he is going to wish he was dead. Just my luck it started to rain, big, hard drops falling from the night sky. As I turned into the next street, all the streetlights were off. Great even better. The only light visible was my car's lights."Fanculo la mia vita"! {Fuck my life}. It started to rain heavier now I couldn't see a thing in front of me, so I pulled over, opening the window slightly and lit a cigarette. Could this night get any worse? I thought. My thoughts were interrupted when I saw a van pulled into the alley. I slowly got out of my car to inspect who it was. I have a lot of enemies and maybe someone followed me. I started walking towards the alley where I saw the van pulled in when I heard someone scream."Nooo! Please someone help!" It sounded like a girl, bu
Chapter 2Johnny's POVI don’t know why I took her to my home. I don’t even know her. All I know is I couldn’t just leave her there in the alley. I wonder why the Russians are after her? As soon as she wakes up I will find out why they want her. I decided to go to one of my clubs and sent Stefano a text. Walking back to my car I told my maid to watch over the girl and to let me know if anything happened.My life has been rough since the day I turned thirteen years old. My old man told me to become a man and that I would someday take over from him. By the time I took over the family business I had killed more people than most people change underwear in a day. I don’t trust anyone except a handful of people. My three best friends, Stefano my right-hand man and Samuele. They have known me since I was a little boy. We all grew up together since our families were friends. Kevin and Jake both have their own gang, but they aren't as powerful as mine. Alessandro is a billionaire who took over
Chapter 3Alessia's POVI groaned at the sharp pain that was piercing my head, ignoring it I opened my eyes, I was met with an unfamiliar sight.I was in a big room that had a walk-in closet, light brown walls and the bed I was in was a king-size with dark brown covers. At the end of the bed was a big dark brown chest. I sat up abruptly, making my head pulse and my vision blurry for a moment. I let myself have a moment to compose myself before I stand up to think of the men that tried to kidnap me last night. Then I remember a man who rescued me, killing those men. I have never seen him before. What if it was my parents that sent someone to take me back home? No, they won't spend money to hire someone to find me. I can only think of one person who would do that, Sergei Mikhas, the man that I was sold to.Now knowing it was Sergei's doing I laid back down and closed my eyes thinking how I was always going to be a caged animal, and there was nothing I could do about it. My four years of
