Footsteps echoed in the dank warehouse as the man continued strolling down the familiar place. The same warehouse that once belonged to the Connor family was now their opponent's base. The same place where he betrayed his own family. The same place where he put his father in danger. The same place where he used to enter as if he owned it was not theirs anymore. The memories flooded in one after the other and only made Vincenzo's hand clench with anger. Only if he was not greedy for power, things wouldn't have been the way they are. Walking through the familiar aisle, he kicked open the door of the main room of the warehouse. Nothing was heard except the loud thud. The place was pin drop silent. "You can show your fucking self now," he spat, trying to control his anger. Three claps echoed as soon as he spoke those words. "Well, well, well. If it wasn't my dearest enemy. Good to see you finally," Vincenzo saw the same man he met at the girl’s reunion party and felt nothing but hatred
Rose sat back on the couch changing the TV channels while Lily continued chewing her lips, staring at her sister whose eyes were fixed on the television and she looked pretty calm. "How can you be so calm?" Lily exclaimed suddenly, breaking Rose's concentration on the show. Rose flinched at her sudden loud voice. "Jeez woman! What is wrong with you!?" She asked, irritated. "Me? What's wrong with me? What's wrong with you!? How are you so calm when your man's life is at stake? Why are you not doing anything?" Rose slightly blushed when Lily mentioned her "man" but got over it. She understood that Lily was just worrying about Vincenzo. But she knew the boys were capable of handling anything. After all, they weren't feared for nothing. "Lily chill. You know they are perfectly capable of handling everything themselves." "No! I think we should still go and help them! What if they need us?" Rose sighed at Lily's stupid demand. "Well, to start with, yes, they do need us but not to help
Vincenzo felt his blood boiling at the sight. He felt like killing the bastard at the exact moment. But then he wanted to give him a nice slow and painful death for all the chaos he had caused for them. On the other hand, Dante was worried. Just worried for Rose. Nothing should happen to her is all that mattered. He sure got really angry at the fact that she was there at such a crucial moment. But then he also had the slightest idea that it would have been her sister's doing. Rose once told him about how Lily always emotionally blackmails her into doing anything she wants. He really was just conflicted at the moment. He wanted to scream at Rose for listening to Lily. But at the same time, he just wanted her in his arms where he would be kissing the hell out of her. As a punishment, of course. He saw the dagger that was held close to the girls' necks, and started to dig in their skin. Lily stayed put. She had her eyes shut painfully tight. However, Ro
"What the hell..." Rose gasped as Dante and she stepped into the room where Lucas had escaped to. The sight in front of them scared them to the core as they could only imagine why there were 6 bomb timers ticking. "8 minutes," Dante whispered, reading the numbers on the timer. "Tch Tch Tch, is the little boy scared?" Lucas mocked coming out of the dark while wiping his busted lip. Vincenzo had done quite a good number on him, but obviously he deserved way more than that. That man needed to be buried 6 feet under and that too quickly. Dante only laughed at him, "You wish," he spat at him. "There is no way you are escaping this place today you bastard." "I know," Lucas smiled arrogantly at him, "I know that very well," he spoke sending a disgusting glare at the couple. "But neither are you. I'll make sure none of you do!" Lucas screamed the last words. "We will see about that," Dante loaded his gun and pointed it at the man who was causing his blood to bubble in anger. That person
Dante sighed as he ran his hand through his hair. Since the past week, there has been something unsettled in his chest. Yes, it had been a week since Lucas was killed and the threat was over. But he could not get over the feeling. The probability of what the fucker Lucas was about to tell him. Although he didn't get the chance to finish his sentence because Lily happened to be there at the most unexpected moment, it doesn't take a genius to guess what Lucas was going to say. He just couldn't believe those words. He didn’t want to. They couldn't be true. He trusted his brother. Then why, why couldn’t he just let it go? Something in his mind kept nagging him that Lucas wouldn't have said such a thing without any reason. There was something behind it. Was Vincenzo really someone who could be trusted? He heard a soft knock and ordered the person to come in. The door opened to reveal Rose standing in a knee-length dress looking beautiful as ever. His lips twitched into a small smile but Ro
"Ughh come on. Just when will you finalize the dress Lily? I'm freaking tired. Just get it done with already. I need my pretty sleep!" Rose complained as she pulled back into the comfort of the couch and continued examining Lily in the next dress she came out wearing from the changing room. Since the morning Lily had kept her busy with her wedding preparations as Vincenzo had not quite been a gentleman dropping the bomb of their wedding in less than a week. He said he didn't want to wait anymore and just wanted to see Lily as his wife. The boys had taken a break from the gang dealings and it really helped things go back to normal for the time. Although Vincenzo had taken care of all the preparations, Lily still wanted to get her dress done personally. And even if it was the only thing she had to take care of, she portrayed it as if she had tons of other things to deal with. Georgia had been excellent at helping her soon-to-be-daughter-in-law get everything on line for the wedding. But
1 year later... "You can't just say no Rose. Your wedding is in three days! And we still do not have your dress!" Rose groaned at her annoying sister. Couldn't she leave her for once and let her sleep? Her sleep was more important than anyone's. And by anyone she meant anyone. Well ..maybe except a certain someone. "What the heck Lily, it's not even 9 in the morning and you are babbling like a baboon here in my room. Go make more babies with your husband!" She huffed before stuffing her face back in her pillows. Lily had given birth to a healthy baby boy a few months back and to say he was adorable would be an understatement. He was an exact copy of his father, but was a Mama's boy. Lily was already 3 months pregnant at her wedding but found out only after her honeymoon night, when in the morning she woke up vomiting like crazy. Vincenzo had taken her to the doctor instantly and found out that they would become parents soon. He was beyond happy. He couldn't believe that he was fina
He sighed after entering his room after another rough day. This included eliminating a few people who were just ugly to deal with. It wasn't really hard for him to kill anyone as it came naturally. He was pushed into this world reluctantly. His name was enough to fill people with terror and make them shudder with fear. Vincenzo is what he was known as; the leader of the Italian Mafia.Being a gang leader had its perks, but sometimes it really got on the nerves. He pondered over what it would be like to live like a normal person. But he knew it wasn't in his fate. Peace was something he had always looked for but kissed goodbye a long time back. It was something lost on a dreadful night where he did a vicious deed which he regrets till date. Something he couldn't forgive himself for. He only wished he could find a place or a person he could confide into or run away to a place where nobody could reach him. Peace was all he wanted. Peace was what he would never get. He made his way to his
