Lorenzo's Pov:

Ashley had told us that she had some work today and couldn't keep us company. But what made me more curious was that she was gone even before we were up. 

When I went down, Lucien was the only one in the kitchen. He saw me coming down and asked me to take a seat. 

"What do you like? Pancakes? Bread butter toast? Coffee or Juice?" Lucien asked and I was a bit surprised. Didn't take him to be a caring one.

"Just coffee for now please, thanks." I replied and he gave me a small smile with a nod.

I saw him work  around the kitchen, getting stuff ready. He even got some pancakes along with some syrup and placed them in front of me. I raised an eyebrow in confusion. I clearly said I wanted just coffee.

"It's going to be a long day. You are a boss yourself, you know how it works." He told  me and it took me a while realize that just yesterday we were under attack. I am sure our men are around, but given that no one had contacted either of us, really made me worried. 

"What are you thinking?" He asked me bringing me out of my thoughts.

"Nothing much, I think it's time for us go to back as well. Even though I don't know and am not sure if the attack was meant for guys or whoever it was knew we were here as well. If they planned to take us all out in one go, then it's not good. There might be a problems back at home." I am not sure why, but I just felt like opening up to him and it came so easily.

"Well, you're not wrong to think like that. Ashley spoke about the same in the morning. And she said she is going to have to speak to you three about it when she comes back. I don't know what but something wasn't right today when she was leaving. And what's scary is,  she's gone alone. No guards, no men. Just by herself and after she left, I couldn't sleep without worrying, so I decided to make breakfast for everyone." Fair enough, he looked like he hadn't a good sleep.

I looked at the clock, it was 9AM and the boys should be up by now. I was about to go wake  them up, when I heard laughs and squeals. We both turned towards the direction of the sounds and sure enough it was my three boys with Damon. We exchanged glances and shook heads.

Once everyone was settled in their seats, Damon got up to get coffee for everyone and Ace decided to help him with getting pancakes and fruits and toast. We ate peacefully, no one spoke, except for a few glances that me and Lucien shared after looking at everyone. 

I felt like Lucien was just like me, atleast in most of things if not fully. He too looked around at everyone and then his brother as if it might be the last time he would see them all, just like how I did while the boys were having their breakfast without any worry.

There was this feeling that tugged at my heart and made me restless. I cleared my throat and all heads snapped in my direction.

"I know, I am definitely getting anxious for no reason, but Ace, Nic, call back home and make sure all is good. I haven't got a call since last 2 days and after the attack yesterday, I have this weird feeling which is continuously tugging at my heart. Let's just be sure, as I am sure you guys haven't got any calls either. Something doesn't fit right at all." I told them and immediately everyone left the table leaving just the twins and Sage.


Nicholas' Pov:

After Enzo spoke to us about his gut feeling, we knew not to ignore it. So I went back to my room and got my laptop out and connected it to my earphones. I called my Second in command, Elias and it took me calling him five times before he answered.

"Give me a good reason not to put a bullet through your head when I'm back Elias." I told him, but I was shocked when I saw his face. 

He was covered with wounds and his face tired. I got up and started packing my bag, while on call.
