"It was Romano who sent me. Romano!" The man screams. Aiden stands straight and shoots him in between his eyes."That was easy." He comments as he places the gun on the table beside him and squats in front of the fresh corpse. I can still hear the man's echo everywhere but I try so hard to focus on what Aiden is doing. He seems to be looking for something. He turns the head and examines the bloody neck. I see something that appears to be a tattoo that Aiden looks at intently before standing while cussing."Fucking Romano!" He punches the table behind him and I wince. "Who's Romano?" Aiden looks at me as if just realizing I'm here."An old friend. Now a backstabber. I'll be leaving in a few hours. Make sure you have Paul and the men I'll assign you at all times. You'll be staying here for the time being. I'm afraid you can't meet your family and friends for now until I settle this. As for the club, I'm sure you don't have to go there every day. You can hire someone to take care of eve

"You're cute." Sean mocks as he walks closer to me. He stands right in front of me. I don't show any reaction. "Sweet Alex. Now that you are fucking the don you think you have power? You think you are the big bad lion? You are still the scared kitten to me. The kitten that was afraid of its own shadow. Don't dare to threaten me Alex. You made a deal and you have to keep it.""I will only if you bring back Kelly.""Don't overestimate your power Alex. I could just decide to form an alliance somewhere else.""Aiden doesn't need you. You need him.""Actually he does. I'll wait for both of you to realize that. Go be a good girl and go to that car, my men will deliver you safely to your lover boy and I'll deal with Kels." He raises his hand and my arm is yanked. I turn and follow the man to another car. I sit in it and look at Sean give out some instructions to his men just as the car starts moving."Where are you taking me?" I ask as I look ar

By the time I wake up, it is at four a.m. and Kelly is still asleep but you can hear her mumble and cry from time to time. I watch her for about five minutes as I try whispering soothing words.That is until she starts crying, calling Sean's name to help her. Sean told me he had found her in a room with torn clothes and had to try to convince her that he's was there to protect her. I rub her back soothingly until she calms down and that is when I get up and start preparing for the day.Kelly and I will be going to my house where I'll take care of her but first, I have to take her to the hospital to have the tests needed as suggested by the doctor.I go to Aiden's room and get into the warm shower after brushing my teeth. Ten minutes later, I'm done. Feeling fresher and livelier. I walk into the closet in only a towel and smile when I see that the clothes are already cleaned and placed appropriately. I might have t-shirts here but I go for Aiden's and one of my sweatpants. I tie my hai

Kelly had been given some antibiotics and pain killers before we left the hospital. Paul had bought a new phone for me and I hadn't wasted a second before transferring everything to it. The first people I called were my parents who told me that they were fine and promised to go have our usual Friday dinner together. I had to excuse Aiden with a lie about work.Second, I called Troy and told him I was feeling really sickCalla played it off saying it was his ego talking. I believed her, but I had a different feeling. Right now, I'm lyi

"Why am I here again?" Kelly asks with a sigh as she takes my hand so that she can comfortably jump the muddy floor."Okay, this is not the best venue to conduct business but you know I can't risk this." I explain. We are inside an abandoned building that Sean had suggested we meet when I told him that I have to see him secretly. He doesn't know anything about Aiden's plan. All he knows is that Aiden and I are not together and he's taking it so badly that he can't see anyone. Just as everyone else believes. Well, apart from his family and Kelly.It's been two weeks since Aiden told me those hurtful words. We haven't spoken again but he's acted his part well. A heartbroken playboy who got played by The Alexandra Black. This caused a lot of mixed reactions from my viewers. Most of them were mad but a good number was also pleased and commended me for it. As for me, I had to keep a face but I would pretend to cry sometime when I knew it was convenient and the other sp
