STIGE NOX MORENO

"Capo." Leo says entering my office after knocking twice, I run my hands through my locks and Leo speaks. "We found a lead." Leo informs and a man steps from behind me. I'm not surprised I never acknowledged him, because he is nothing compared to Leo

I look at the man and nod at Leo. Leo exits the office, closing the door softly. "Listen Nox. I have shipped cargo from and to many places in the world." He starts, saying unnecessary bullshit "Seat." I try to offer but it comes out as a command.

The door opens softly and Luca enters followed by a grinning Sil. "Please take a seat Mario." Luca says clearly having been filled in with Leo. Sil takes a seat opposite the man and Luca sits on top of my desk.

Taking a seat I look at Mario waiting for him to speak but he doesn't talk, just chews on his bottom lip sweat coating his head. "Talk." Mario shuffles on his seat, his mouth opens then slams shut again, almost as if it hurts him to say this.

"My family offer them protection please." He says taking out a picture from his pocket and passing it to Sil. "If I talk he will ensure my family is killed." He explains sweat coating his skin. Sil passes me the picture and I analyze it.

There's a small girl with short hair and big brown eyes being held by Mario and a woman sitting next to him smiling at the picture, they look happy. "You have my trust." I say and he nibbles on his lip and looks at me then Luca who nods reassuringly.

"What do you want to know?" He asks and Luca is first to shoot a question at him. "How did he get the bulk of drugs out of the ship without being noticed?" Luca asks. Luca shuffles in his pockets and gets out a pack of cigarettes, igniting one and passing it to Mario.

Mario nods his head no and Luca passes it to Silje who takes it. He then ignites two more and passes on to me. I take a deep inhale of the cigarette as we await Marioo's answer.

"He was planning this, there was a boat on the other side of the ship which he loaded with the products, and he wasn't alone." Mario replies. He looks nervous but I'll keep my word to protect his family.

"Did you see his face?"I extinguished my cigarette on my desk and toss it in the paper bin. "He had curly hair, he was really young about his age.' He says motioning to Luca. Luca extinguishes his cigarette and says his name "Luca." he mumbles, offended at how the man referred to him.

"He had a slight accent, it wasn't American, and his English was fluent." Mario says taking in a shaky breath before speaking again Sil is using his phone clearly not knowing what is going on. "Anything in particular about the person he was with?" Luca asks and Mario nods.

"There was a man a Russian accent. If I'm not wrong he had a stomach.' Mario says swallowing. Motherfucking Adrik. " Anything else?" I ask when I meet eyes with him but he quickly averts his gaze.

"He paid me off." He says and I can already tell he was paid to shut up and threatened "That will be all Adrik Leo will escort you home." Sil says and opens the door to my office to go out and talk to Leo.

"Protection." I tell Leo, he nods in understanding escorting Mario out. I can't shake the feeling that I have met the boy but I don't remember where. I shrug off the feeling and focus on what to do with Adrik.

I text Gray and ask if he has any updates on Adrik.

...

I walk through the backdoor into the kitchen and to the dining room. Atlanta, Alessa, Luca, Mama, and Sil have just settled for dinner. Atlanta smiles when her gaze meets mine and my heart skips a beat at her beautiful smile.

I smile slightly but I can already tell it came out as a smirk. I shrug and make my way to her and pull out the chair. Mama is chatting with Silje, clearly engrossed in the nonsense he's feeding her. Alessa and Luca are looking at me with knowing looks.

I pull Atlanta's chair closer to mine and place my hand softly on her cheeks angling her head so that her eyes are now focused on mine. "I missed you," I whisper and Atlanta's breath hitches. I pull her closer and kiss her.

Atlanta lets out a shaky breath and I take that chance to pull away. "I missed you too," she whispers. "State insieme?" Mama asks, gasping dramatically. "Si." I answer and look at Atlanta. She's fidgeting with her hands, nervous.

(Are you together?")

(Yes)

"It was high fucking time."Alessa says and LUca mumbles in italian "Sapevo che te la stavi scopando." I send him a death glare but he turns his gaze at Alessa. "Bella you have no idea how happy I am," Mama starts, and Atlanta looks at her smiling cheekily.

Sil is looking at me like I have grown two heads and Alessa and Luca are looking at Mama agreeing in nods. "I thought this man was going to die single." Mama admits and Atlanta chuckles softly, My heart skips a beat at her laughter. Dinner goes by smoothly with Occasional chatters and a few questions on Atlanta's and my relationship.

After Dinner Sil offers to clean up with Mama and Alessa and Luca insist they have to do something -which is Alessa begging Luca to take her out to drive.

Atlanta smiles cheekily at me when Mama and Sil go into the kitchen. Fuck that smile. "I'm so proud of you, baby" I let out and she stands from her chair tugging at my hand so that I can stand.

Atlanta wraps her arms around my neck and kisses my cheek." You checked my results out?" she asks and I nod. She slides her hand into mine and pulls me onwards the stairs I follow admiring her.

She's dressed in a yellow summer dress - dotted with flowers- that hugs her curves slightly and white Mini heels. She looks gorgeous as always. "Tesoro you look amazing." I tell her and she turns her head grinning at me.

I close my door softly and Atlanta walks to the door and looks at it before sending me a cute grin."I'm so fucking happy Styx."She says walking to my bed and sitting on it. I hum softly as I walk to the bed and kneel helping her take off her shoes.

"I love spending time with you- styx you make me feel." She pauses not knowing how to explain. I smash her lips on mine because that's what she does to me she makes me feel emotions I have never felt before.

If Atlanta wanted me to kill myself for her I would- hell I would even throw myself off the bridge, I would travel to the end of the world just to see a smile on her face. I would do anything so we are together in our next lives.

If she's the moon I'd be the sun so we can correspond. If she's Earth then I would be the sky so I can follow her to the ends of the world. If she's  Winter, I would be spring so we can wash away together. If she's sin then I'll be her salvation

I can't explain what I'm feeling because I have overdosed so high it's impossible to come down. The emotion I'm feeling is more than love.
