LucianoI heard the doorbell ring so I groaned. "Dario! Answer the door!" I yelled before going back to my work. I typed away on my laptop before the doorbell rang again. I stood up before grabbing my gun from off my desk. I swear to God I'm killing this annoying motherfucker.I opened the door before pointing my gun at the man in front of me. A man that I thought I'd never see again. Because he's dead."Marroquín." He said with a heavy accent lacing his words."Viktor." I said before letting my gun down. "It looks like you've seen a ghost." He said before laughing. "Did you think it was over American?" He asked and I clenched my jaw."Thought what was over?" I asked and he smiled before entering the house. "Come on, let's cut the bullshit. I know you or your brother tried to kill me." He said and I flared my nostrils."It wasn't you, if you're Luciano. You never miss, it is a known thing. Everybody knows Lucifer never misses a shot." He said and I blankly looked at him."Unless y
PaigeI nervously bit on my bottom lip as I stood in the middle of Luciano and Dario in front of their childhood home.The door went open and revealed a beautiful lady dressed in a short sundress with a pair of white sneakers on her feet. She smiled when her eyes landed on my face so I blushed. She's their mom? She looks so- young."You must be, Paige." She said in a friendly tone and I nodded before hugging her. "It's so nice to meet you Mrs Marroquín." I said and she smiled broadly. "Likewise sweetheart." She said before leading me inside. I looked back at Luciano and Rio and they shrugged while smiling at me. "Honey! Meet Paige." Mrs Marroquín told her husband who rolled the newspaper in his hand into a tight cylinder."Paige King. So nice to finally meet you." The man said before shaking my hand. He was wearing a navy blue suit paired with black pointers. He reminds me of Luciano.I rubbed my sweaty palms over the bottom half of my dress. I know the twins are obsessed with it
Paige"This is what you've been hiding from me?" He asked us. "Rio-" I started but he cut me off by turning around."Mano, we weren't hiding anything from you." Luciano explained carefully."Is that so?" Rio asked blankly. "Rio, I- I-" "No you don't." He cut me short and a tear rolled down my cheek. "You can't tell me how I feel." I told him and his jaw clenched. "I love you." I said before placing my hands on his cheeks. "I really do." I repeated and he just glared down at me."I don't know how to do this. How to say I love you to two guys. But I do love you." I said while looking between them. "Just don't hate me." I begged and Rio rolled his eyes at me.I hugged him and felt his arms wrapping around my waist.~"Look at the time." I said as I laid in Rio's arms on the couch. Luciano who was staring at me from across the coffee table frowned lightly. "We need to get you home." Rio said before sitting upright.I grabbed each of their hands before we went outside together. We cli
One Week Later...PaigeI sneezed twice and Viktor frowned at me. He placed his hand on my forehead before licking his lips. He carefully picked me up into his arms before walking up some stairs. My head rested against his chest as it felt like all the life was drained from my body. We entered a house and I realized that he kept me in his basement. How original.It's no wonder I became sick. That basement was freezing. We entered a room upstairs and he silently placed me down on the bed before leaving the room. After a few minutes Viktor picked me up once more then carried me into a bathroom. And without warning he dropped me into an ice cold bath and I hit his chest as the cold consumed me. "Relax you were burning up." He said calmly. No I was freezing!"It's too cold!" I yelled, gasping for air and he rolled his eyes at me. I grabbed his shirt and he tumbled into the bathtub with me. His warm body pressing against mine felt like paradise. He pulled back before glaring at me in
ViktorAmerican princess. I looked down at her. God she's beautiful. But she's also the enemy, which means she can't be trusted. "No." She said pointedly. She's very brave. I can tell that she's afraid of me or maybe of what I'm capable of doing."You're lying." I told her and she frowned."I'm not lying." She argued. "I can tell when you're lying, everytime you lie you look at your hands." I said and she looked at me in shock. "No I don't." She said so I wrapped my hand around her neck. We held eye contact and a blush tinted her cheeks.She leaned into me and I smirked. Clearly she doesn't know what I can do to her. "You're too pure." The words slipped out of my mouth.Paige frowned up at me so I pulled away from her. "I'm too pure?" She asked."This world- it wasn't created for little girls like you." I said and she slowly became angry all over again."Maybe not but I'm part of it now." She said and I smiled, she truly amuses me."And yet you're afraid of it." I said and sh
PaigeWe've been driving for what felt like hours and Viktor only stopped to feed me a smoothie and some chips. My eyes however were still covered with a blindfold. My wrists and ankles were tied up as well. I hate being tied up. The car suddenly stopped and I heard a door open. The door next to my head opened soon after and Viktor helped me out of the car before leading us somewhere. I heard the sound of keys then we started walking again. A door closed behind us and I sighed nervously. The blindfold was carefully removed from my face along with the rope around my wrists and ankles. "Home sweet home, princess." He said and I just stared at his stupidly perfect face. "I need to use the bathroom." I said softly and he took my hand in his before leading me to a bathroom. He closed the door after he exited and I pulled my pants down before urinating. I looked around me and the only window I saw was in the stupid roof. There goes my escape plan.When I was done washing my hands I t
Paige"Viktor?" I called into the silence but no answer came. "Viktor!" I called more urgently."In here!" He yelled back so I walked towards his study. Faint light came from inside the room and I sighed before pushing the door open. "Can I sit in here with you?" I asked carefully and he looked up at me. "Why?" He asked in confusion. "Because I don't like being alone." I said softly and he frowned. "Why not?" He questioned again."Because it's scary." I said and his eyes softened. "Well in that case have a seat princess." He said before placing his focus back on his computer screen. I sat on a small couch before curling myself into a small bundle and watching Viktor. "Viktor?" I called."Hmm?" He replied before looking over at me. "It's my birthday." I said softly and a tear slipped out of my eye. I didn't think I was gonna spend my Saturday like this. As I brushed my tears away I was picked up into Viktor's arms. "What are you doing?" I asked."We still have five hours lef
Dario My head rolled back and images of Paige ran through my head. I groaned before pulling the girl up by her arm. "Leave." I said in frustration and she wiped her mouth while frowning at me. I shoved her payment into her hand before opening the door for her. I ran my hands through my hair before throwing a vase against the wall. I shrunk down and rested my head in my hands. I started sobbing as I sat in front of my bedroom door. Paige is dead. Viktor Tchaikovsky killed her. And it's all my fault, I did this to Paige. This is my war and I dragged Paige into it. I'm so fucking sorry. The image of her dead body is stuck in my mind. It's everywhere. Viktor has won, he won this war fair and square when he killed the love of my life. I grabbed a bottle of whiskey from off my nightstand before gulping the burning liquid down. I will find that bastard and kill him. And when I do it will be the ultimate victory. Today would've been her fucking birthday. She wanted to celebrate it so
