Richard couldn't express how troublesome he found the maze that was Jovani's estate to be. It veered off somewhere else when they thought they had found the right way to their destination. God. Could the man avoid making at least one thing in his less complicated? Indeed, protection was important against enemies. This, however, was overkill even for the traditional level of precautions that most mafia boss took. The mafioso rubbed his forefinger and thumb together in hopes of dulling the tingling…

Lena's eyes rose to meet Eve's. No, she shouldn't have been there yet. Narrowed eyes darted over to Hester who shared the same expression that took over the Lena's features. Eve was going to be their back up plan. How come she was here when Lena hadn't requested it yet. Who made that call? "Eve. I don't remember telling you that you should make your way over here." Lena stood up. She didn't know what was going on between the two women but it didn't take a genius to figure out there was some…

As Lena stepped through the door, Hester could only feel relief. Thank goodness he'd not chosen to pull his gun yet. No way would that situation have worked out in his favor. A gun in the Princess's face would only end badly. Accident or not, her current mood would leave no space for forgiveness or second chances. "Hester. There isn't anything to worry about anymore. Our chat can wait until a later point." The tech didn't have to inquire as to why when he saw Gabrielle. The Italian woman looked…

"You're trying to pull my leg on that one, aren't you? No way in the world did you, of all people, manage to find something like that." Gabriella muttered, hands ceasing their action, but she still refused to move her body from boxing the other in by the door. The moment she let go of the Princess again, she knew how impossible it would to get ahold of her once more. "Do you think I have anything to gain by lying to you about something like this? I needed to find something beneficial to get you…

Touching without permission took the top of the list of things Lena hated more than anything else. The current circumstance she found herself in violated this in more than one way. Being pressed against the door left little wiggle room for her to move away from her assailant as the wet seeped into her clothes. "Come now. You can't have invited me here without having what I want." Lena's mind shut down for a brief second as hurried hands patted her all over, seeking out any pockets or crevices in…

She couldn't have the time to deal with this on top of everything else, could she? Lena ran a She would be cutting it all off when she had a chancehand through her hair. Damn it. She cursed under her breath when her fingers got tangled in a knot. The moment she had a chance, she would be cutting it all off. Damn anyone who said she'd look better keeping it the way it was. Circumstances such as the one at hand left her with little time to care about her hair. "Hester. I asked you to take care of one…

Richard's eyes caught on the bleeding injured arm for one second too long. He only barely managed to avoid Jovani as the other made a go at him once more. Richard winced slightly as he felt the hand brush past his face, barely missing it's mark. "Talk? You were the one who wanted to talk after ladling all of those threats at me. You and I are connected by nothing but you still seem to think that you have right to tell me what to do or how to do. Alonso even thinks you're right. How did you manage to…

Cain didn't know whether to feel annoyed or surprised at a third party's involvement in a situation he could easily handle himself. Although, the newcomer seemed to have no problem disabling the livid Vedova Nera boss with one swift move. "Fucking asshole. This is all your fault. I didn't think that you would be showing up until later." Jovani struggled to catch his breath. It had been so long that he'd forgotten how hard the other could him. The Vedova Nera's drug-muddled brain had at least enough…
-
Cain didn't have to be told how urgent the situation was. Yet, he didn't take action right away. Who in their right mind would without observing the situation first? Not that Cain had much of a right mind left in the first place. He'd lost that long ago when he signed up to be a mercenary. "Whatever your name is, you'd be better off going back to where I came from and keeping an eye on the baby cousin. I told my men to keep an eye on him, but it wouldn't be great for him to see this situation."…
-
The argument between the right-hand man and his boss quickly went south when the words left Alonso's mouth before he realized what he'd said. No longer was it a bicker between two friends; Jovani wanted blood. He might very well get blood if the other couldn't get him under control. For one brief second, Jovani caught the other off guard, turned the tables, and threw the other off harshly. The slight difference in their response time was the only saving grace for Alonso. Jovani's slower reaction time…
