“I’m impressed, Rob”, Leonardo said as he went through the documents and files on his laptop. “Always at the service of the mafia, Don”, Rob responded. A knock was heard on the door followed by Russo’s head peeking through. “I heard you were back, Don. Came to show my respects”, Russo said, stepping into the office at Leonardo’s approval. “Russo, I trust you handled the rat in your care well? Have a seat”, Leonardo said, not looking up from his laptop. “Straight to business. I handled the situation very well. You’d be pleased with the results”, Russo answered. Leonardo turned to him. “Really?”. “Yes, Don”. “Go on”. Russo stood up and walked out of the office. “Have you been keeping an eye on him?”, Don asked. “To the farthest extent of my power, yes. But he likes to handle things alone, with no guards around”, Rob answered. “That is something”, Leonardo commented. “It is. He seems to know what he’s doing, but I can’t help but wonder about his method”, R

Arya felt hot with fury. “Why the hell are you here? And what has she done?”, Arya asked. Rosa, who came into the room with her, shifted uncomfortably. It was obvious she was the tattletale and she was scared what the Don would do. Luckily for her, Arya wouldn’t let him do shit. “I know I was supposed to come to you but I am still working. As for her, she’s a spy and I’m questioning her”, Leonardo said. “Spy? Oh, Christ! Ana is my sister although not biologically. She can’t be a spy”, Arya defended the girl on her knees sobbing. “Dona, let’s calm down and talk”, Rob said. Leonardo smacked his forehead lightly. Who the fuck tells an angry woman to calm down? Rob made the situation worse. “What did you say?”, Arya aske
Arya sighed as she recalled the last months. Just like her husband predicted, the other family protested against him and he spent the last few months cutting down each family tree. Her father on the other hand who now had Maria at his side had backed off and she hope it stayed that way. She’d hate to have her husband murder him. She hated it had to result to murder but her hands were tied. It didn’t help when she realized she was having twins. She remembered the day they found out fondly but also with dread. FLASHBACK They were at the hospital and she was lying on the bed with her obstetrician. “Don, this is amazing. You’re having twins”, the doctor said. Arya’s emotions were all over the place. “Leave us alone”, Leonardo said to the doctor with a smile. The doctor exited the room. “I’m so ecstatic”, he said to Arya. She smiled awkwardly. “What’s wrong?”, he asked when he noticed her expression. “I was scared of bringing one child into the unsafe wo
Leonardo ended the car and told the driver to stop the car. He got off the back seat and got into the driver seat. Without waiting for the driver to get in, he started the ignition and drove off like the devil was chasing him. “What’s wrong?”, Rob gathered the courage to ask. “She’s unconscious”. Leonardo continued driving at maximum speed. He ran his hands through his hair and cursed every second. “We’re still an hour away. Why the fuck did I leave her alone? Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!”, he cursed. “It wasn’t your fault, you didn’t know this was going to happen”, Rob said. “If you are going to bother me I’ll leave you stranded like I did the driver”, Leonardo warned. Rob held his tongue. “I understand.” Leonardo was in no mood for a lecture. The only person he ever cared about is in danger and all he could see was red. The blood of whoever was to blame would flood the cell where they would die slowly and painfully. ******************** “Where’s my wife?”, Leonard
Russo had already claimed Arya from the moment he set his eyes on her. If only he knew Leonardo would make a move. In his defense, the man had just taken her as soon as he saw her. While they used to be good friends, he was pissed off and felt betrayed. He even sent some men to kidnap her, but he failed miserably. That was when he realized it was impossible to attack the Don from the outside. But from inside, it was possible. Difficult, but possible. Especially when he used a family member. He couldn’t get access to Dona with Leonardo hovering around her, so he waited until she was alone. He didn’t expect her to fall unconscious, but he expected that she’d come to him with the note, since he was her husband’s old friend and a very good tracker. Things didn’t go exactly as planned, but it all worked out well for him in the end. A lopsided grin appeared on his face as he opened the door to reveal her gorgeous face. His smile turned to a frown as his eyes landed on her
Leonardo was loosing what was left of his mind every second he was away from her. She could be in pain or worse…. He took a deep breath and unfastened his fists. He was in his tech company manager’s office. Only a handful knew he was the boss and he intended to keep it that way. While the rest of the families were plotting against his companies under the mafia, he was out there building and expanding his empire. He had blackmail materials on many top politicians and bent the law to his will whenever he pleased so it was no surprise he had access to video footages from every street in Italy. Again, no one was aware of that. But all of that meant nothing without Arya in his life. He’d sacrifice himself if he had to. She would be the mother of his children and he’d be damned if he just stepped aside and watch Russo get away with it. His sister was part of the squabble too. As much as she pissed him off on a daily, he loved her unconditionally. It had always been both of
Getting to his office in the villa, he pulled a suitcase onto the table. He opened the suitcase and pulled out an Sig Sauer P320 X-Five Legion and an Accuracy International AXSR. He already had a shot gun on him. He pulled out knives and daggers and kept them in his boots. Since he intended to go alone, he needed to make the fight even. A knock was heard on the door. “Come in”. Rob and a handful of soldiers entered the room. “We will come with you Don”, Rob said. “No need for all of that. I can handle this one”, he said. Rob eyed the guns on the table. “We can’t let you go alone, Don. It’s our duty to fight for you. Russo might have back up or a couple of men”, Rob said. “I don’t need you fighting my battles for me, Roberto.” “We won’t fight for you but you can’t stop us from fighting with you”, Rob said and continued. “There isn’t a soldier here that wouldn’t lay down their lives for you”. Leonardo would gladly go alone but Rob and his men ganged up agai
Arya entered her father’s room with dread in the pit of her stomach. “You sent for me father”, she said softly as her father turned around on his seat. “You’re getting married the day after tomorrow. Tomorrow, you’ll meet your soon to be husband at your engagement party”, her father, Carl Miguel said with an air that leaves no room for argument. Arya couldn’t believe her ears, she definitely wasn’t having it. “What?!”, she exclaimed. Carl lifted an eyelid at her. “Father, I just turned twenty, surely you can’t push me of to be with someone I do not know”, she said. “I’ll forgive you for talking back at me like that just this once, Arya", Carl said with a stern expression. “I am your child for crying out loud, your only daughter! And you’re pushing me off to be with a stranger?”, she asked, still unable to believe her ears. “This marriage is set in stones, there’s no need to shout”, Carl said nonchalantly, an impassive expression on his face. “I refuse this marria
