DUANTE'S POV If Enzo isn't the aim of his visit, then he has some information he doesn't trust to share on the phone. Everyone thinks he's the Italian mafia boss. He has gained everything he is born to be... to be next on the throne after his father's death. I helped him get what he deserved. "Hi, brother." Christiano slapped his hand on my back, "Drink?" He asked. I shook my head, "Any information?" I asked. "No," He sipped from his drink, "Tann has no relatives who could be… stalker and attacker." He paused, "Did those pictures help? I suggest you use a tracker on him. That could help." I nodded my head, "I've already done that. " Cristiano smiled, "I don't remember anyone who could think to hurt us." I slithered my fingers through my hair in exasperation. "It could be anyone. Is someone obsessed with her?" He asked. "The one I knew is dead right now," I clenched my hands. He smirked, "Now, I see why yo
I saw him through the corners of my eyes. My heart was beating in my chest. I peeled my attention from my husband and gazed at Rocky with astonishment, "Who taught you fruity-tooty?" I asked. The name didn't seem to be given by an expert cook but by a child. "My sister," He said. He always masked his face with cruelty or no expression. I felt a ping of sadness in my chest. I was a little mischievous girl for my brother. I always do something naughty to bring a smile to his face and ask him to give me cookies from the shelves. He was tall. He made me my favorite cheese sandwich. I stopped eating them after his death "My brother..." I choked but halted, "When I was a kid. My brother was tall, he helped me with cookies to bring them down from the high shelf." I smiled. Rocky looked at me for a sec and nodded his head. I looked away to hide my tears but my gaze locked with his amber eyes. The lock of his jaw explained he still hated the tears in my eye
Next Morning! There was only one thing hovering in my mind. I can't sit here calmly and watch him getting ruined. I put on warm and comfortable clothes. I looked at my reflection in the mirror. Two braids, loose strands, pink glossy lips, spotless face. I slung my backpack over my shoulders. I checked my pockets. I have no cash. How could he be so cruel to me? "Rich husband, poor wife," I pointed at myself. I opened the window. Carefully, I landed on the other side. If there were guards, seeing me running out of my husband's home. I didn't care. I needed to do it. It had robbed my calamity, and peace of mind. I opened the door. Instead of running like most of my days, to feel the dangerous situation out before going out of the room. I kept pacing. Rocky and Assassin got on their feet and exchanged a look, "Good morning, boys." I smiled Rocky struggled to not glare at me. Assassin cleared his throat, "Where are you go
DUANTE'S POV I could turn the day into night for her. The sky was overcast with dark clouds. Helping me to gain what I aimed for. One of the cold days of New York. The whole manor was under artificial fog. It wouldn't last long. I covered her with a warm blanket. She was delicate as a flower and needed a lot of care. My trusted men surrounded me, loaded guns in their hands. I wouldn't let this happen again. Our steps were making no noise as we quickened them. I reached my office. Tom stepped forward and placed his hand on the black display. The screen lit up green, giving us access to pass. Only I and Tom are familiar with these secret paths. Eve has access to these secret passages, underground floors. Mini can enter the secret passages but she isn't allowed out until one of us grants it. She isn't strong, brave and tough like Eve. Rocky glanced down at his wrist, "Fog would have cleared." He said. Aakash stared down at the
My heart kicked up a notch at the thought of Aarav coming with us. I was dam* sure he wasn't Aarav. I didn't even know that a man who was hit with a bullet in his head could survive. He had told himself that he was in a coma for almost a year. I felt him around me. It was similar to the feeling when Duante shot him in the head. My gaze turned to Tom, " My phone and laptop?" I asked. I haven't even seen my gadgets properly, then all this happened. "Here," Duante shoved the bag at my side and placed it between us. I smiled seeing the latest version of the iPhone and laptop, "Thank you," I muttered to him again. You felt more freedom with your personal things. Though, I could hire any best designer in the world, any piece of jewellery, anything, impossible was nothing for me when I was Duante Rego's wife. I clicked on Tom's number and tapped my index finger multiple times. I averted my gaze out of the door. Duante shouldn't know about it.
I beamed at him ear to ear. His memory has been restored. I'm offended he hid it from me. But I had done this too in the past. We're a family. We care for each other. But we hardly use words to express ourselves. My husband is at the top of the list. He rarely explains what he feels. I always consider him a strong personality. He is. There's no doubt but he also gets tired of everything. His phone began to ring, breaking the spell. I pulled my head back gazing up at him. He was already scowling at the display. His look said it was not something he was expecting. When he didn't answer the call, his phone beeped. Footfalls echoed in the glass house. With his clenched jaw, he got on his feet, taking me along with him. I stepped back, my hands still curled around his shoulders. Abruptly, my heart began to pound in my chest. I could feel something bad coming. But I couldn't spoil the moment by bringing it out of my mouth. "Boss," Drake
DUANTE'S POV I could feel her eyes on me. The stalker wouldn't get a little hint. It would drive him crazy. This was the result of his craziness. I didn't want her to hear anything. I couldn't deny her when she looked at me with her big beseeching eyes. "You will be in each other's contact." I dismissed them. Arsh, Aakash, and Drake exchanged looks. "Boss?" Aakash gulped, taking a small step ahead. "Find his third son." I gritted my teeth. I felt a tug on my coat. A little astounded, I peered down at her. She flashed her innocent smile. "Is the meeting over? I think our baby is hungry." She chewed on her bottom lip sharing a nervous look with me. I couldn't hold the corners of my mouth tilting up. I brushed my knuckles on her crimson cheek. She relaxed under my touch. I could feel the tension in her body, the questions in her eyes. I was glad that one of my enemies was dead today. "Sure," I turned to Drake. "Did Ru
The sky had gone dark. I couldn't persuade myself to move or to go in. His strange, mysterious talking was confusing and dreading me the most. He lost his memory and forgot everything about me. A shudder worked down my spine. Meri thought frightened me. I could never imagine myself forgetting him. Was he trying to tell me something? Was he planning something? He never told me anything. He attended his meeting in another language. So I couldn't get a word. It was clearly showing, it was related to me. I rubbed my palm on my arms, hugging myself. I felt goosebumps. My heart hammered in my chest. "You shouldn't be out," I felt something warm over my shoulders. Lifting my chin, I looked up at Tom. He smiled down at me. "Why is Mini not here?" I asked. He breathed out with a frown. He walked around the bencher and sat next to me. "Dad said, her mother can take care of her better than us." I felt sadness engulfing
