Luciano's POV My night was sleepless because I kept watching Shuri and Gio through my camera. Apart from Amara, they were very important to me and since Massimo was still lurking around, I had to ensure that they were safe. Stefano's death was painful but I consoled myself with the fact that he betrayed me even after everything I had done for him. I remembered the last conversation we had and how he told me that he was happy about their salary increase. He was even happy that I had fallen in love again and I wondered why he defected even when I paid him so much. I was beginning to lose trust in my men because it was appalling to discover that two of my trusted men were traitors. After watching them for sometime, I went to visit Luca at the dungeon. I wasn't so surprised about his betrayal because I had been suspecting him for some time and my confrontation with Massimo gave him the chance to reveal who he really was. I got into the dungeon after the door had been opened for

Dee's POV As I walked out of the room, I instructed my second in command to thoroughly search the house for bugs or hidden cameras. Ever since I had that conversation with Jordan, I felt uneasy like he was watching me even though he wasn't close to me. It was appalling to know that my father had seen him but didn't say anything to me. I wondered if they had actually known each other even more than a year. I had to call someone because what I faced was becoming overwhelming and I needed external help or I wouldn't be able to make it. There was only one person I had in mind, so I dialed her number and she picked up immediately. "You have Amara, right?" She said to my surprise as I got to the rooftop and stared at the tall buildings that spread across the street. I came there because I didn't want anyone to listen to my conversations and I also wanted to be alone so I could think without distractions. "What do you mean? Who told you?" I asked in con

DEE'S POV I explained further in the video that I had battled cancer, the one that made them freeze the workings of my system and I also had kidney failure. The reason I dyed my hair blonde was because I didn't want to feel left out. I had a kidney donated by a poor man who was in need of money. He didn't have the money to get his family and kids what they want and needed. That was how a good father was supposed to behave! We helped each other! I did made sure to help him more. Helping people was one of the things I did while I was in the US but, now I was filled with contempt for people and just wanted to end it all as reality was beginning to set in. I discovered that not everyone cared about me but what I could do and they were always the first to make mockery of me. "I hate the Alonso family because we do not act as one family and it's sad to find out that even age cannot correct this mistake that began from childhood. The reason I became gay is n

Amara's POV I felt like a cheap wore in the dress that Dee selected for me. Though Mariam tried her best in making me look good, I still felt disgusted. I tried to act numb, ignoring Dee's sly remarks but it wasn't working. All I wanted was to shove a knife that I had sharpened to my satisfaction into his neck. I imagined how horrified and scared he would look knowing that death was ready to receive him. He had informed me that it was going to be a nice party but I wasn't convinced. As far as it had to do with him in the mafia, all parties were the same. Only the arrangement and dresscode differed.I was still surprised that he was comfortable in taking me out of the house. It was for my own good as I was almost going insane living with him. His presence made the air in the house polluted but I wished I could die from it. The thoughts of running away gnawed in my heart as I stared at the trees and buildings that we passed by. I wondered how it would feel to open the door and jump

Luciano's POV Sadness filled my heart as I watched the video Dee had sent to me that morning. He looked so vulnerable while he explained everything that he went through and I almost forgot that we were enemies. I tried not to blame our father for his suffering but it wasn't possible as he was the main reason why Dee was always miserable. The fact that he had a disease that restricted him from having a child was painful and I imagined being in his shoes. It would hurt a lot if I wasn't capable of having children, sons that would take over my business. It was the pride of every capo that his son succeeds him after death. When I discovered that Amara was carrying my seed, it gave me great joy to know that I would have a child from my loins. Apart from being miserable, he didn't wield as much power as I did. He was like my shadow so he had to struggle twice than I did to get whatever he wanted. I paused the video and wondered how I would feel if I had to force people to obey me.
