PaigeI wonder if Luciano and Dario are looking for me. I wonder if my dad is still alive. I wonder if Kenny still lives at our house, I hope he's okay. I sat down on Viktor's lap and his hands wrapped around my waist. I rested my back against his chest before staring at the ceiling. "Do you trust me?" I asked him and he was silent for a while. "Of course I do. I care about you." He said and I smiled softly. "Do you know if my dad's okay?" I asked carefully and he was silent again. "Your dad is doing good. We keep a close eye on him." He said and I sighed in relief. "What about- Dario and Luciano?" I asked before gulping."What about them?" He asked before sitting upright. "Are they okay?" I asked before standing up and he flared his nostrils. "How should I know?" He asked and I frowned at his sudden change in mood. "Are they even looking for me? You can't keep me here forever Viktor. I'm not a prisoner, that's not how this works." I said and he frowned at me."This?" He ask
LucianoI finally tracked Vera down. It's now or never, I need to talk to her before Dario tries to kill her. I placed my gun into my waistband before knocking on the door.The door went open and revealed the one and only, Vera. She's as beautiful as ever."Luciano?" She asked and I nodded while looking into her eyes. "What are you doing here?" She asked and I clenched my jaw. "We need to talk." I said and she frowned slightly."Come inside." She said so I walked into her house. Seems like she lives alone in this mansion, which is strange because Vera hates being alone. "Can I get you something to drink?" She asked stiffly."Water is fine." I said blankly and she went into a different room. I followed her and found her dialling someone's number."Put the phone down." I said before pointing my gun at her so she placed the phone on the countertop. "I don't wanna hurt you, Vera." I said and she glared at me. "Then get your gun out of my face." She said angrily so I lowered my gun."
Dario"Tomás!" I called and he sighed nervously."We spotted Viktor's car on the R303." He said and I frowned. "Then why do you have that look on your face?" I asked and he sighed once more. "We lost sight of him, sir. The other cameras on the road were all jammed." He explained."So search the area." I said in frustration. "Nevermind, I'll do it myself." I said and Tomás clenched his jaw. "We're coming with you, sir." He said and I nodded curtly. "I'll leave with Luciano." I said before leaving my office. Hopefully Vera is with her brother, that way I can kill two birds with one stone. I entered Luciano's office at the end of the hall and found him standing in front of his window. "We have a lead on Viktor." I said and his head snapped at me. "What?" He asked with a frown on his forehead. "We spotted Viktor's car on the R303." I explained and he nodded slowly. "Right, let's go." He said blankly. What's up with him? We left the building together in silence and when we finall
PaigePlease don't be his wife, I prayed."Hi." I said in a friendly tone and the girl frowned slightly. "You must be Paige." She said slowly."Yes and you are-""Vera. Viktor's sister." She said before smiling at me. Viktor placed his arm around my shoulder before we walked back inside together. "I actually came to discuss business." Vera said and Viktor placed a gentle kiss on my knuckles. "Go ahead." He said in a gentle tone and she pulled her face in disgust. "Can you stop?" She asked and he chuckled before kissing me and I just smiled. She looked at me and Viktor smiled at her. "You can say it in front of Paige." He said and her eyes widened in shock. She brushed a strand of hair out of her face before sighing. "Luciano came to my house yesterday. He came to warn me because apparently Dario is plotting to kill me." She said before looking at me and I frowned. "You know Luciano and Dario?" I asked and she smiled in amusement. "Of course I do." She said and I smiled. "Did
Viktor I walked out of the house and Ivan, my right hand man placed a gun into my hand. I felt the sun hitting my bare chest as I walked in the direction of the main gate.As we got closer to the gate I spotted a few cars parked outside. I clenched my jaw before cocking my gun. "Boss what do you want us to do?" Ivan asked from next to me and I glared down at him. "I'll handle this, just do you job." I said before signalling for my men to open the gate and five black jeeps slowly drove through them. The Marroquín twins jumped out of the first two vehicles and I smiled. I watched them taking their guns out and pointing it at me. I signalled for my men to start shooting and as I did so one of the twins cocked their gun. I aimed my gun at Dario Marroquín's chest before placing my index finger on the trigger. I took the shot and he fell to the ground but his brother didn't even seem phased by it. Bulletproof vests.A chuckle escaped my mouth and I looked at the remaining twin in amu
PaigeI cried as I slumped to the ground with Viktor.For a few seconds everything stopped around me. I started crying while looking into his eyes and he smiled at me before placing a gentle kiss on my lips. He rested his head on the ground and my eyes widened."No!" I yelled in agony before placing my hands on his wound. I ripped a piece of my shirt off before pressing it against his wound but the blood kept oozing out of his body and all I could do was cry. "Viktor! Please stay with me. Don't go to sleep." I begged him and his eyes flickered open and shut as he tried to stay awake. "Ivan!" I called and Ivan came running up to me. "Please help him." I begged and Ivan helped Viktor up before heading towards a black jeep. I briefly looked over at Luciano and Dario but they were fully engaged in the war taking place around us so I ran over to Viktor's jeep. Ivan helped me get in then we sped down to the hospital. I took ahold of Viktor's hand before closing my eyes and praying for
PaigeI ran into Dario's arms and he placed a kiss on top of my head. I slowly looked up at Luciano and his jaw clenched. "How is he?" He asked and I chose to just ignore him. I watched him walking over to Vera who ran into his arms before crying into his shirt. I took a step back from Dario and spotted a hole in his shirt so I frowned deeply. "What happened? Are you hurt?" I asked urgently and he shook his head at me. "I'm wearing a bulletproof vest." He said and I sighed in relief before opening his shirt. "You should take that off, I'll go get help." I said and he sighed before stopping me. "I really thought you were gone." He said under his breath before looking into my eyes. "You're still here." He said and I nodded before hugging him once more. "You should stay here I'll go look for help." He said with tears in his eyes so I just nodded. I sat on the cold floor of the hospital while my back rested against the wall. I felt someone sitting down next to me and I found that
PaigeI laid next to Viktor on his hospital bed with one arm resting on top of his chest. I wish he'd wake up so that we can figure this out. He's the only one that understands. I rested my head on his chest before closing my eyes and falling asleep in his arms. ***The next morning I woke up by the sound of footsteps. My eyes flickered open and I found a nurse changing Viktor's IV. She smiled when she saw that I was awake. "Good morning." I said before sitting upright. "Good morning miss." She said in a friendly tone so I climbed out of the bed. I placed a kiss on Viktor's knuckles before exiting the room. I let my long blonde hair down before running my fingers through it. The hallway was empty so I went outside to catch a cab. I spotted a yellow car on the curb so I jogged over to it. I got into the car and told the driver my address before resting my head against the window. As we drove home it started raining. Once we arrived in my driveway I paid the driver before jumpin
