45. Alessandro II
"To love at all is to be vulnerable"
~C.S. Lewis
Alessandro's P.O.V:
"Il magazzino est è stato attaccato" (The east warehouse has been attacked) Antonio informs in a grim voice.
My sharp eyes travel around the meeting room, all of my best man are gathered here for the special meeting that I have conducted today.
Someone has been attacking my business. Some bastardo he is.
He does not know what is coming for him. No one and I mean it, that no one messes with my business, my mafia.
I may show no feelings and may seem detached from the world but my business is everything to me, that includes my warehouses, my deals, my man and my secrets.

"Chaos is a friend of mine"~BOB DYLANAlessandro is changing.I haven't decided whether it's a good or bad one but there is definitely a change. I can see it, everyone is seeing it. Especially after the episode that went between us in his study.I was not angry at him, maybe a little disappointed but not angry. There is no doubt that he walked me to my death but there is also no denying that he saved me. As I always say I am a rational thinker. I never take decisions based on quick emotions.I have a habit to ponder over everything before coming to a decision. Like the day I decided to marry Alessandro, it was not a decision made in rush.No, I thought about every possible aspect of the situation, if there was a way to get my family out of it alive. When I concluded that
The Agreement 47. Gloria
"I'm trying my best"~UNKNOWNDarkness.That is the first thing my mind registered, I try moving my eyes but feel a weight on them that was stopping them. I try to focus on my surroundings, I realise that my closed eyes are the reason behind the darkness.I try to open them now, my eyeballs move beneath my shut eye lids. Slowly my eyes flutter open, I open them cautiously in fear of burning them by some sudden light.My heavy eyes finally open up, instead of light I find myself surrounded by darkness, again. I blink a couple of times and tilt my head to my side.A soft dim light was lit in the room, it was lit enough to manevour your way around the room. I study around me. I was in my room laying on the soft bed.The left side of me face felt heavy, curiously I lift up my left hand
The Agreement 48. Forgiveness
"A memory is a star or a stain"~D.JThird person P.O.V:Gloria was quick to divert the topic as soon as she noticed Valentina's nervous stature, the poor girl was already fear strickened by her son for now, she did not wanted to add more to the pile.An hour flowed between the two of them, the empty tea cups placed carelessly on the side table as both of them lost themselves in their own little bubble.Gloria found herself fascinated by the young girl infront of her by every passing minute. This girl was so innocent, beautiful and most of all she knew how to handle her son.Alessandro was always a troublemaker but his tendencies never led to someone being hurt. Gloria was shocked when she found out about her son's behaviour towards his wife, although Christine did assure her that
The Agreement 49. Antonio's Revenge
"I still taste the past"~UNKNOWNThe past few days have been.. I don't know how to put it. A lot of emotions have been shared between me and Alessandro.After he acted like a possessive brute it was clear that shifting to another room was out of the picture but that didn't keep me from maintaining a distance between us.But who am I kidding, this is my husband we are talking about. He knows how to pave his way through my walls.I was surprised.The amount of patience he showed when I blatantly ignored him or sometimes mildly disrespected him infront of his men. I had this small flame inside me that wasn't ready to burn off not until I make him feel even a quarter of my previous pain.Well it wasn't successful, I couldn't continue ignoring him.I was weak.

"But who knows, maybe one day we'll be perfect for each other"~UNKNOWNDarkness again!How ironic, I've been finding myself in the darkness every other day or was I always in the dark but now it is when I realise it?I hear faint sounds around me, they are slow at first but grow loud and clear as I find myself getting more and more aware of my surroundings.I slowly flutter my eyes open, the sudden invading lights around me make me flinch and close them, "Valentina!?" I hear a feminine voice filled with worry.Gloria."Go call Alessandro" I hear her ordering someone, I feel a shadow above my closed eyelids, I pry my eye open again surprised to find Gloria's hands looming over my eyes sheltering them from the setting sun light.I take a moment to stare at her palms, I go over the detailed lin

I shriek, Alessandro puts me down on my feet but quickly intervenes our hands."Have you had him investigated?" He asks the guards ignoring my baffled form, one guard steps infront to answer "sì Capo" he nods his head. Alessandro doesn't seem satisfied by his answer.What investigation? What is he talking about? I look up at him asking him through my eyes. He just pulls me closer to him."Come here" he commands the priest in his dark voice, the room was surrounded by his dominating aura making everyone feel at edge including me.The priest looked visibly shaken, he takes slow timi

"I was never really insane except upon occasions when my heart was touched" ~EDGAR ALLEN POE"Calm down" Christine's gentle hand keeps rubbing my back as I lay my head on her lap and sob uncontrollably.It's been 15 minutes since she brought me to Gloria's room and I've been crying non-stop."H-he scared me" I hiccup shuffling to bury my head further inside her warm embrace, I need someone to hold me right now."Trust me child, he didn't mean to." She tries to assure me massaging my head, my sobs calm down as her magical fingers sooth me as always.We both stay silent for a moment "sometimes I forget how young you are, 17 still a child" she murmurs sadly.

The boss asks impatiently, Gary straightens his already rigid posture.He seemed well composed this time compared to the last time he barged inside the boss office like a headless chicken."Boss, I am working on the details but what I have gathered is that Capo was already aware of his uncle's intentions. He was playing along with his game until Antonio sputtered out everything himself" he informs.The boss motions with his fingers telling him to continue "No one knows where Antonio is, the last they saw him was being dragged by the Capo towards his warehouse" Gary visibly gulps, being dragged by the ruthless don toward
