I woke up to the sound of her gentle breathing, it was like a sweet harmony that terrifyingly fills my heart.

When we made it home this morning, I hadn't gotten any sleep, and I barely got any sleep for the last three days, so when Angelina walked into my office I couldn't help having her next to my side. Waking up next to Angelina was one thing I barely regretted, having sex with her on the other hand was something that I thought about everyday, and not only the bad things.

The sound of my phone ringing bought me back to reality. Grabbing it, I walked out of my office so I don't wake Angelina.

"Hello?" I asked when I answered the call.

"Boss we need you here, we got more information and your club in exploded a while ago."

Not this again.

~~~

After I got the news, I told the guys and we left a few minutes later, thankfully Angelina was still sleeping, because I didn't want to explain why I was leaving again.

But hopefully I didn't have to spend nights at work again.

As the smoke cleared and the chaos settled, I took a deep breath, my eyes determined. With my business at stake, I knew I had to act swiftly. I already knew who did it though, but I had to figure out who exactly it is.

As the dust settled from the explosion, I stood there, a mix of anger and determination in my eyes. Returning to my office, I gathered everyone who was most trusted. I made important phone calls, reaching out to my contacts for any leads or information that could help me, like maybe security footage.

Hours turned into a blur as I tirelessly worked to piece together the puzzle, determined to protect my reputation and to find the person responsible and destroy them.

The door to my the meeting room swung open and Levi stepped in.

"Nicolas, remember last year when your gym got broken into and on the wall they curved out a date." He said as soon as he opened the door.

Of course I remember, that was the second time they broke into the gym, but didn't steal anything.

I shook my head in response.

"Well, that date is today. And a picture was just sent to the computer." He said.

"What is it?" I asked.

Turning his computer, I saw a picture of Angelina.

She was outside with the dogs, but this picture wasn't taken today. This was taken before the Angelo went to DC, before it started snowing.

A message appeared on the screen. The message read, 'find me.'

~~~

I was currently in my car racing home. I was going 100miles over the speed limit, but I didn't care. I had to reach home. The explosion was only a distraction. I should've remembered the date they'd left, I should've bought Angelina with me.

What if she's still sleeping, what if she's outside, what if they fucking kill her. I couldn't bare the fact of her getting hurt, my heart ache at that thought.

Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit.

I can't let that happen, I was even afraid I'd hurt her, and I don't know what I'll do if anyone else hurt her.

Every second that ticks by feels like eternity, my grip on the steering wheel tightened, my focus unwavering, as I continued to race down the street.

Moments later I arrived at the house, grabbing my gun out the glove compartment. I didn't wait for the rest guys who were following to exit their car, I just went straight inside gun in hand.

Right as I stepped inside, I saw Angelina standing at the top of the stairs and a man in all black standing in front of her with a gun pointing at her head.

And I didn't waste time before I shot him. I made it up the stairs in a few seconds to meet her, I grabbed her by her face making sure she wasn't hurt.

"Are you alright." I demanded, when I saw a tear escape from her beautiful eyes.

She nodded her head, before looking behind me.

"Go upstairs to my room and lock the door, don't open it unless it's me okay."
