Draco

"Stay in and get some rest today," Draco said planting a kiss on her temple as she was about to protest.
Doing up his shirt buttons he was surprised when she walked up to him and tried fixing his tie whilst standing on her toes.
Holding onto her waist to support her smiling as he felt the baby move whilst she paid attention to his tie smiling triumphantly once done.
"Thank you," he whispered.
"You are welcome," she said planting a kiss on his lips before she could stop herself.
Turning away blushing profusely he left her heading to work but first he had to meet Dante.

Dante

"I will be back in a few days. Just need to take care of one or two things," he said as Belle nodded her head in acknowledgement as he packed up his bag. "Stay safe," he said kissing her forehead before he quickly dashed out leaving her with his mother who had dropped by to visit.

"Sebastian will not be a problem. Let's just get this over and done with," Dante said as Draco looked pissed off.

Reaching their grandfathers company they walked in looking serious just as Gina rushed up to them looking beyond stunned.
"Mr Prince," she stuttered looking between them as they both responded to her.
"Umm Mr Blake is looking for you," she stuttered looking worried.
"Thank you," they both responded walking ahead heading to the elevators.

"Mr Prince," the secretary shot up doing a double take as she saw two of them. "He...he is expecting you.." She said as they continued on.
Walking into the office they found Sebastian already there laughing with the old man.
As soon as the door closed they stopped turning to face them.

"Hello grandfather," Dante said with a smirk.
"It feels good to finally be in the open. I believe Sebastian already informed you of our existence," Draco said taking as seat as Dante did the same.
"What do you boys want. I thought I told your mother never to contact me."
"Oh no. Our mother does not know about this, so let's keep it that way, shall we," Dante said in a flat but deadly tone.
"Why are you doing this?" Old man Blake barked.
"Because we can. Because you treated our parents like dirt," Draco spat.
"You will pay for crossing me," he said his nostrils flaring.

"As of five minutes ago you have nothing. All the money you invested is now in our hands per-say," Draco smirked. "You have nothing grandfather. I can easily convince all the shareholders to vote you off the board because of this bad decision.
"You can't do this," he yelled standing from his seat as Sebastian looked like he was about to breakdown.
"I think we just did. Don't you think so brother?" Dante said.
"I believe so," Draco said as they stood up to leave.

The whole week everything was silent after they took over their grandfathers company, without their mothers knowledge of course.

Dante

"You really need to slow down with work," Belle murmured as he ran his fingers through her hair.
"Hmmm for you I will," he said softly as they sat in his living room watching the last embers of the fire die down.
"I was thinking we could both pay your brother a visit. Your mom mentioned something about a family dinner, why not a family weekend," she smiled.
Looking at her he simply nodded his head yes, not wanting to ruin the moment. Her smiles were rare but once she smiled at you, all problems could seem like nothing in an instant.

After a few minutes of silence Dante turned his gaze outside seeing some movement.
"Belle are you expecting someone?"
"No. Grandpa won't be back till next week," she said as he took her hand.
"I need you to remain quiet. When I tell you to run, run as fast as you can to the cottage. Use the back door sand stay low. Do you hear me? Once you get there pick up the phone and dial 9. Only nine," he whispered retrieving a gun from underneath the dining table.

Feeling her tremble he gave her hand a light squeeze as the door slowly opened. Several men walked in just as Dante found the power switch cutting the lights. Laying on the ground he managed to take out two men bringing them to their knees as they cried out in pain before silencing them with head shots.

Their comrades ran back into the room after hearing their friends.
"Run!" He yelled as she scrambled to her feet heading towards the back entrance before the men could register what was happening.

Dante stayed behind holding off the other gunman which was no easy feat. As soon as she reached the cottage she did what she was told before looking for a place to hide. Fear gripped her as tears ran down her cheeks. Hiding in the closet she heard the floor boards creak just outside her door.

"Find her," she heard a man growl.
"Sir we have a problem. One of our lookouts spotted several cars making their way here," another voice said.
"We must find her or else the boss will kill us himself," he spat.

"I thought I killed you," the voice from before said before he cried out in pain.
"Belle!" She heard Dante call out.
"Belle it's okay. Come out," he said as she cracked open the door only to find him leaning against the wall blood dripping from his brow and arm. His knuckles bruised as he turned to look at her.

Running towards him she screamed seeing more armed man as Dante quietened her down.
"Good to see you boys," he said. "That one is alive. He will surely spit out the source of the hit," he said as Belle helped him out of the house towards a waiting car.

At the same time

Draco

"Ela, wake up."
Draco said holding his gun quickly silencing her with a hand over her mouth.
"I need to keep you safe," he said looking at his phone as he watched the live feed showing several men crammed in an elevator.

Hitting a wall panel a small room was revealed as Draco helped Ela into it.
"Stay in here. I will come back for you. If I don't aim and squeeze," he said handing her a gun.
"Draco, no. Where are you going?"
"Hey, hey, I will be alright. Trust me," he smiled as the door closed.

Looking at the feed he counted seven men in total. As the elevator dinged he heard their multiple footsteps as they moved towards the door. Turning off his lights he waited in the dark. Two at a time the men walked in and the last man, most likely their leader came in last as he closed the door. Moving towards his room, he waited knowing one or two of them would check there first.

And indeed he was not disappointed. As soon as both men entered the room he shot them dead quickly grabbing ahold of them before the hit the ground with a thud.
Walking out of horizon he saw two men heading to his office as soon as the entered the room they were taken out leaving the three who had stayed behind.

Walking into the room he took them by surprise and before they could even react he had shot dead the two minions leaving the head wounded as he cried out in pain.
Reaching the man he was taken by surprise as the intruders fist connected with his body.

"You think a flesh wound can stop me," he spat pulling out a blade.
"Do you think I missed. I gave you a flesh wound for a reason," Draco spat as he punched the man quickly stepping away when he tried to knife him.
He had to commend the man's training as he got a few cuts from the blade before finally prying it out if his hand. Exchanging fists Draco let out all his anger until the man fell unconscious.

Stumbling back to his room he opened the door to Ela.
"Ela," he called out as he sunk to the floor whilst Ela stepped out of the room.
"Draco. Oh my gosh, Draco," she cried out grabbing the sheets, ripping them to shreds to tie up his wrist and thigh.
"Dial nine on my phone," he whispered.

The intruder had managed to slice his wrist without him even noticing this, too focused on taking the man down.
"Dial nine," he whispered.
"Draco. Baby please keep your eyes open for me. Please I need you, we need you," she said as tears ran down her cheeks.

"Dial nine," he whispered reaching out to wipe away her tears. He hadn't even registered that she had done that already as he pulled her into his arms holding her securely.
