Dante POV

I watched as Amila got dressed across from me. It confused me how she managed to make me love her so quickly.

The woman in front of me wasn't the Sophia Moretti , I  came to know when I was younger. That girl would never stand up for herself against me , she would never grab my gun and shoot another person. 

This woman , had no qualms about speaking her mind. She didn't take shit from anyone . I was in love with this woman .

Fuck.

The thought of her getting hurt , made my insides burn.

When she ran inside the gate , scared for her life , I  saw a side of her that felt familiar.

" Dante , why do you hold my hand so tightly ?"
" So that i can protect you from the bad people in the world, Sophia".

Holding her in my arms at that moment made me feel like i was her hero. Then she suddenly grabbed my gun and started shooting at Carter's car, making me realize she wasn't in need of a hero.

It hurt me.

Shit.

What the hell am I doing right now?

I'm not supposed to be such a pussy for any woman. When she's mad at me , I'm walking around like some lovesick pansy. When she smiles at me , i can't t help but feel jealous of anyone else she has shared it with.

"Dante , are you even listening to me?", Amila asked , snapping me out of my thoughts.

" Of course Bella ," I  responded , smiling at her angry scowl.

She rolled her eyes and left the closet.

Shit.
Every time she gets angry , I  get hard.

I finished pulling on my black dress shirt buttoning it while walking into the bedroom.

Amila lay sprawled across the bed in jean shorts and burgundy v-neck shirt. The smallest sliver of tanned skin on her stomach was revealed. Her wild curly hair spread around her like a cloud.

Walking up closer to the bed , i looked down into her wide blue-green eyes. They changed colors with each emotion, but she didn't know that.

Holding out my black tie , I  waited for her to tie it for me around my neck.

She smiled at me,  while pretending to choke me with the black fabric.

I smirked at her and put my hand around her waist,  slowly sliding it to it's destination.

Her eyes began to become a dark shade of blue,  alerting me to her arousal.

I grabbed the cheek of her ass,  pulling our bodies into each others.

" Don't forget what happened the last time you assaulted me",  I said referring to the kitchen incident,  when she threw a plate at my head.

She began to giggle quietly, at my statement.

As she finished the task,  I was suddenly pulled into a kiss by my tie.

My lips met hers,  taking control of the kiss immediately. 

I needed to stop, or else we would never leave this bedroom.

Pulling away,  I smirked at her moan. I pulled her in closer once more and gave her a quick slap on the ass.

" Later, Bella",  I whispered into her ear as a promise.

She smiled back devilishly and released my tie from her grip.

As I was walking out,  I shouted "Put on some fucking pants ",  knowing I would illicit a response out of her.

" Fuck you and your rules,  Dante",  she yelled back laughing.
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------

" They're planning something, Dante. I know it. ",  Vicenzo stated calmly.

" I agree.  I think that the spy chasing Amila was just a distraction. He is planning something way bigger. ",  I responded,  looking over to Carter for a response.

" I believe he's going to try to take all of us out at once. We are all fucking walking targets. ",  he yelled angrily.

The other men in the room began to yell all at once.

"Abbanstanza",  I yelled, silencing the room quickly.

" Listen to me,  and listen well.  We are not going to let that fuckhole, end us. I want everyone to act as if nothing has changed, until I say otherwise. If someone trespasses near your homes,  shoot to kill. Don't leave your families alone at any moment. Up your security if needed to. ",  I spoke, gravely.

Fuck.

If my guess was correct, they are going to try and wipeout my family.

Over my dead fucking body.

I watched as the other men left,  leaving me in my office with my brothers.

"Dante,  what are you going to tell Amila? Sooner or later she's going to start asking questions.  She knows she is a target. ",  Vicenzo spoke quietly.

"She doesn't need to know anything,  and you will not tell her either. Let her believe that the enemy is gone. ",  I replied, pissed off at the idea of her finding out.

Both of my brothers nodded and left the office.

Shit.

Grabbing my head in my hands,  I began to run the ever growing headache away.

The idea of Amila and my famiglia dying,  made my insides hurt.

Shit.

That bastard had to die. 

He needed to die from my hands, if it was the last thing I do.

Amila's voice rang out from the hallway, making me jump.

"DANTE,  help ",  she yelled,  causing me to run to her immediately.

She stood in the hallway,  holding a bleeding Amina in her arms.

"What the hell is going on? ",  Carter yelled seeing Amina.

"Why the fuck are you guys standing around like she's not hurt. ", Amila yelled laying her best friend down on the couch.

"Call the motherfucking doctor,  NOW",  Carter yelled at the men watching from the hall.

I pulled Amila into my arms hugging her tight.

"What happened, Bella? ",  I whispered.

" I was walking to your office, and the door buzzed.  I was going to ignore it, but it kept buzzing, so I opened it and Amina was just laying there bleeding out. There was a note beside her,  but I didn't even read it, I was so worried about her. ",  she cried clutching at my shirt.

I yelled at the men to get the note from the front.

Shit.

The doctor had finally arrived,  and began to work quickly.

" What is happening, doctor? ",  Carter asked,  pacing back and forth.

"She has four stab wounds to her left leg, and her back is cut. Other than that she has a couple of bruises on her arms and chest,  but she will be fine after some stitches.", the doctor spoke calmly.

Relief flooded the room immediately.

"Boss, here is the note that was left next to her", Gino spoke.

"This was just a warning. Watch your back, Dante. ",  I read aloud.

Fuck.

I crushed the paper and threw it into the fire angrily.

It was time to put everyone on lockdown.

I was declaring war.
