Lucia Ramirez, a 23 year old PA to a multimillionaire couple, finds love in the strangest of situations when she happens across Hadyn 'Terra' Taylor, 30, a fearsome kingpin with an edge and a name for himself.
Can she handle him, and can he love aga...
Lucia burst through the doors of the care home. She ran so fast that she could barely catch her breath. Diego and Tamia were already there and she didn't see anyone else, she was too focussed on the news she had received from the care home. She ran into the room and saw the doctor and staff with her mother. "Mama... MAMA!.." she screamed in heartfelt pain falling to her knees at the side of her bed.
Diego ran in and grabbed her, he pulled her up and held her to him and she cried and sobbed on to his shoulder. Her mother had passed away not long after Lucia had gotten home from the club. Diego had taken the call at the club, and he had gone straight there with Hadyn.
"I wasn't here.... I WASNT HERE!." Lucia kept yelling amidst her tears.
"How were you to know... Lucia.. she was sick, very sick, it was only a matter of time..." Diego said doing his best to console her.

Tamia took over, holding her and comforting her. Hadyn looked at Diego "man.. I'm sorry for yo loss..."
"It's Lucia I'm worried for... it was always just the 2 of them... the mother fucker that fathered her didn't even want to be part of her life... he was in it for the sex not the kid.. she and my sister were inseparable.." Hadyn looked at Lucia, he had never seen anyone so heartbroken.
"I wasn't here... I was at a fucking club Tamia... why would I not be here..." she said hysterically sobbing.
"Listen, your uncle is right... this could have happened at any time...she was very sick...
"The one night I choose to go out... it's payback... I knew I shouldn't have gone.." she said almost hysterical.
Diego was talking to the doctors and filling in paper work. Hadyn walked over to Lucia and Tamia. "Lucia... I'm sorry for yo loss..."
She shook her head. "I was at a fucking club.. too bothered by you with a stripper in your lap... what was I thinking.." she said dismissing him.
Hadyn looked at her. "Lucia... this is no one's fault...
"What would you know about it!." She yelled at him.
"Because I wasn't there when my mama died either... I found out later... and it hurts like hell, especially when you're the one who has always been there..." he said to her with feeling.
Her chin wobbled and her legs felt like jelly. She was so overcome with grief and pain that she fell into Hadyn. He held her, Tamia looked at him, how gentle he was with her, supportive and caring. Diego looked across and he stared at Hadyn holding his niece. No matter his feelings, he wouldn't be able to stop these two getting to know each other, and he knew that. He walked over to them. "Lucia let me take you back to our place tonight... please.. I wanna know that you're okay.." he said to her.
She shook her head and moved away from Hadyn. "I just want to go home to my place..."
"I'll take you.. Diego looked at Hadyn as he said that.
