ANNAA few hours had passed since I embarked on my journey to Xavier's place. As I stood in front of his door, I couldn't help but feel a wave of nervous anticipation wash over me. I desperately hoped that Mrs. Kathryn, Xavier's mother, would be in a forgiving mood and grant me entrance. With a silent prayer to whichever divine entity might be listening, I mustered the courage to knock.To my surprise, the door swung open, revealing a sight I hadn't expected. Instead of Mrs. Kathryn, I found myself face to face with a miniature version of Xavier. The resemblance was uncanny—same eyes, same smile, but in a smaller package."Hello," the little one greeted me with a small, innocent voice. "Who are you, and how may I help you?"A warm smile spread across my face as I introduced myself. "My name is Anna, and I'm a friend of your father's. Could you please let him know that I'm here at the door?"Before the little girl could respond, her voice was interrupted by Mrs. Kathryn's call from ins

DANTEIt had been more than a week and a few days since our secret agreement with Xavier had been sealed, outlining our plan to bring an end to Orlando. However, we had refrained from taking action just yet, choosing instead to let Xavier recover fully from his injuries. We didn't want to risk Orlando suspecting any involvement from Xavier, jeopardizing our carefully crafted strategy.During these past days, I had yet to break the news to Anna that she wouldn't be accompanying me to New York. I had numerous justifications for this decision. Firstly, I wanted to shield her from the impending war that loomed over us and the dangers it entailed. Even if I succeeded in eliminating Orlando, a host of adversaries would emerge, including his ambitious cousins and brothers, eager to prove their worth by taking my head and claiming the throne. However, I was resolute in my determination to confront them one by one, ensuring they understood that they were all under my control now.Secondly, the

DANTEAs I stepped into my house, a wave of disappointment washed over me as I surveyed the scene. My men, whom I had entrusted with their respective duties, were slacking off in various corners. Normally, I would have reprimanded them for their lack of discipline, but today they were the least of my concerns. Ignoring their careless demeanor, I made my way towards the entrance, only to be greeted by Matteo with an exuberant grin plastered across his face. It seemed he had been waiting for my return."Welcome home, boss man," Matteo greeted me, his eyes darting around as if searching for something or someone.I furrowed my brow in response to his behavior. "What are you looking for?" I asked, my curiosity piqued.His gaze shifted uneasily as he replied, "The second guy you boarded the plane with. Who is he anyway?"My patience worn thin, I pushed him aside, eager to enter the comfort of my own abode. "I'm not answering any questions while standing outside my own fucking door," I retor

DANTEI let out a relieved sigh as I reminisced about Lisa's wild escapades from the previous day. Ah, what a weight off my shoulders! Finally, I could shed the charade of playing the affectionate lover, sparing myself from the obligation to shower her with kisses just to keep her satisfied. The thought of indulging in such acts, which would undoubtedly displease Anna, made me cringe inwardly. Damn I sound pussy whipped.Just as I was lost in my musings, my ringing phone jolted me back to reality. With a mischievous grin spreading across my face, I nonchalantly propped my legs up on the table as I reached for the call button. I knew exactly who it was before even glancing at the caller display. "Hey love, is everything alright?" I greeted her, a hint of curiosity lacing my voice.In the background, I could hear Anna shuffling around before finally responding, her tone laced with a touch of annoyance. "Well, aside from the fact that your ever-vigilant security detail shadows my every

DANTE As Xavier and I discussed the plan, his optimism was palpable. He readily agreed to take care of the individuals responsible for inspecting the jet. I didn't bother asking him for specifics because if he had managed to eliminate the guards around Anna's cell, I had faith that he would handle this task as well. Xavier instructed us to be prepared tonight since Orlando's departure was scheduled for the morning. He emphasized the importance of our presence at the designated location, ready to execute our mission. A portion of my team had already departed for California to ensure the safety of Anna and Xavier's family, while the remaining members would confront Orlando's men at the airport.Lost in my thoughts, I was interrupted by a knock at the door. Granting permission for entry, I saw Tom poking his head in."Do you have a moment, boss? I'd like to talk to you," he asked."I can spare a few minutes. Come in," I replied, gesturing for him to take a seat.Tom entered and settled

DANTELast night, as the moon hung high in the star-studded sky, I found myself unable to surrender to the soothing embrace of sleep. Instead, I remained wide awake, vigilant and alert, my eyes refusing to succumb even for the briefest of moments. In my hand, I cradled Orlando's exquisite scotch, which I had discovered at the deserted bar earlier. Its amber glow danced in the dim light, offering me solace and temporary respite from the anticipation that gripped me.The plan was simple yet delicate. Xavier had assured us that he would inform us the moment they departed from the house. Until then, I found myself imprisoned in the confines of a dreary room, awaiting Xavier's crucial call. Aware of the delicate nature of our mission, I made sure Xavier swore an oath of secrecy, binding him not to utter a single word about our clandestine endeavor to Anna. His compliance was not optional; I had made it abundantly clear that any breach of trust would result in dire consequences—I vowed to

DANTESilently, I eased the door open and peered into the room, spotting one of Orlando's men meticulously arranging the space. It appeared he had been reduced to a servant, a mere houseboy in Orlando's empire. Taking aim at his heart, I squeezed the trigger, the sound of the gunshot punctuating the air. The man crumpled onto the bed, his lifeblood staining the pristine white sheets. One adversary eliminated, leaving six more to confront. Stepping further into the room, Matteo, Tom, and John followed closely behind me, ready for the imminent confrontation. With a subtle nod from me, they dispersed, each armed with the determination to eradicate those despicable men.Time seemed to blur as the next few moments unfolded. Swiftly and efficiently, we took down four more of Orlando's men, their existence extinguished with ruthless precision. John's skill and proficiency in combat proved invaluable, reinforcing my confidence in our team's ability. Now, we stood on the threshold of the cabin

ANNADante's reassurances did little to ease my growing unease. Deep down, I couldn't shake the feeling that he was hiding something, something potentially dangerous. Attempting to reach him, I dialed his number several times, only to be sent straight to voicemail each time. Frustrated, I turned to Xavier as my next point of contact, but my calls to him also led to his voicemail. It seemed like everyone I reached out to was suddenly unreachable.In a desperate attempt to gather some information, I turned to the intimidating figures Dante had assigned as my security. However, they remained tight-lipped, refusing to provide any insight or even acknowledge my presence. Their indifference to my greetings only fueled my suspicion further.Seeking solace, I stepped out from behind the protective shield made of bamboo and scanned the surroundings. That's when I noticed Lily, completely engrossed in her own world, diligently etching something on the sandy ground. Intrigued, I approached her,
