I find myself sitting down next to the very person I have been trying to track down for months, he sits comfortably across from me as a woman sits beside him, her hands casually sliding up and down his inner thigh.

"Took you long enough to find me." He says, his British accent thick as he takes a deep drag from his cigarette, Dario sits to my right as Serge is on my left. "It's been what? 8 months?" He says.

"Since I killed your father?" I ask cocking my head to the side. "About." I shrug, I watch as his expression grows angry as he sits up runs his tongue over the front of his teeth and he takes another drag of his cigarette.

"I'm here to propose a deal." He says and I roll my eyes as I lean back into the chair.

"Fuck that-"Serge starts before I cut him off.

"Talk." I shrug, blaze smirks and I cringe as he puts his cigarette out on the inner thigh of the woman who was just feeling him up, I could tell she was too drugged up to feel anything.

In all honesty, I should have just killed the fucker when I had the chance, but he knew that would cause more problems for me than fix, and he was one of my biggest fucking problems.

I didn't know much about Blaze other than the fact that the asshole has screwed me over more times than once, he and his fuck face dad have been a pain in my ass for years.

I did know that Blaze had something to do with the death of Rory's younger sister, she seeks revenge and I'll save her that satisfaction, if anyone gets to kill this fucker, it's her.

But I did want to hear him out, he continues talking about how our forming an alliance could benefit me and I honestly could not give a shit less about having any ties with him, he and his father are greedy and selfish, not to be trusted.

"We have supplies and resources, you have connections," Blaze continues, it didn't take long for me to get bored of this conversation. "What do you say?"

"I say you can forget about it, we don't need to ally with anyone like you, I'd rather cut my fucking dick off," Sergio says. "With a butter knife, slowly. Saw. It. Off." Serge says and my brows furrowed at that.

Jesus.

"That was... oddly graphic," Blaze says before he shakes his head, his gaze finding mines, I look over at Dario who has a bored expression on his face, then at Sergio who just looks pissed off, and I know if I accepted this I wouldn't hear the end of it from him. "So?" Blaze asks.

"We will be in touch," I tell him as I get up from the couch making my way out of the room, honestly I was too pissed off with everything else going on in my life to give a shit about Blaze right now.

He needed my alliance, not the other way around.

And I was too tired to give him an answer, in all honesty, I just wanted to be home, everything was going to shit right now, Luca has gone MIA on me and I was fucking losing myself.

My shithead of a father won't get off my back for two fucking seconds.

And most importantly I didn't know what was happening between me and Mila, walking out of the building and ignoring the guys yelling and following after me.

I make it to my car and drive out of there, I didn't care about allying with Blaze, Rory is going to end up killing the fucker before he could be of any use to me so sitting in there and talking was a complete waste of my fucking time.

It was late, around 2 AM when I finally made it home, I kicked my shoes off at the door and made my way upstairs, my room was dark and I decided to keep the lights off as I changed out of my clothes.

Taking a hot shower and brushing my teeth, I run my hands through my hair as I put on my boxers.

Walking over to my bed I get in and only then do I notice a sleeping Mila in my bed, I try to slowly get in the bed so I don't wake her up.

As I lay down she begins to stir awake and my face cringes as I try to stay as quiet as possible but it's too late. "You're home." She says and those two words alone make me never want to leave her side ever again.

I sigh as I get comfortable, I watch her scoot closer. "Sorry, I woke you."

"It's okay, I was worried you were going to be gone all night." She tells me and I frown.

"You were?"

She nods tiredly as she snuggles against me, and for a second I think she's drunk but I didn't smell any alcohol on her, she was just really tired and really happy I was here apparently, and that sent my heart spiraling. "What happened?" She asks as she lazily looks up at me.

I move some of her hair out of her face and shake my head. "Nothing, don't worry about that," I tell her and she lays her head on my chest as I continue running my hands through the loose strands of blonde.

"You're going to make me fall asleep," she tells me as I continue to run my fingers through her hair, little does she know that was my goal, I know she already has enough trouble going to sleep and I didn't want to add my problems to her own.

"Close your eyes, princess," I whisper.

"But I want... to.." she lazily talks.

"Goodnight Mila." She mumbles a reply and I smile at that, not saying anything else as I let her shut her eyes she falls into a deep sleep.
