Matéo Santiago's POV

I lay on our bed with Adeline's naked body wrapped around mine.

I twist her kinky locks in between my fingers and I tug gently, smirking, when she gives me a small tired moan.

Make-up sex.

One of the things that we have developed over the years, when talking doesn't work well enough.

I told her severally that I was sorry for keeping secrets from her and she would ignore me until earlier today, when she said.

"If you're sorry, show me"

So I did...

"This is not what I had in mind, when I said show me" she giggles, kissing the stubble my jawline.

"Did it work, anyway?" I ask and she nods, burying her face into my chest.

"We should fight more often then" I chuckle, putting a hand on her growing stomach and she giggles.

"Do you wanna go on prohibition again?" She asks, tracing her fingers along my tattoos.

"No!" I respond quickly and she laughs.

We lie there in comfortable silence.

"Do you think Leo loves her?" My wife asks me.

I sigh.

"I think that it's complicated" I respond and she nods.

"Do you think he'll be able to get answers out of her tonight?" She asks and I nod.

"He'll do whatever it takes" I say and she sighs softly.

"I don't even want to think about it anymore" she says and I turn to her, looking down at her.

She looks up at me then at my lips.

I lean forwards and then, when my lips are inches away from hers, I whisper.

"Let me help you with that..."

Dana Harris' POV.

I open my eyes slowly and I feel as if weights have been hooked to my eyelids.

I expect myself to be covered in sick or chained like an animal, but instead, I find myself in a soft bed, with fluffy pillows and the softest duvet cover that I've ever felt in my life.

I get up, and pain soars through my head.

Ugh. How much did I drink?

I look around the room I'm in.

It's simple, comfortable and elegant even, but something is completely off.

I try to remember the events of last night, and my blood suddenly freezes, when I remember how I was attacked by the two men.

My eyes shift, looking for an exit and I see a door.

I quickly scramble for it, and I try to yank the door open.

It's locked.

My heart rate speeds up rapidly and I feel myself start to panic.

Where am I?

Who are those men?

What do they want from me?

Oh, my God, did they...?

No, there's no pain in my legs or stomach, so they can't have...

I walk back to my bed and sink into it, trying to plan an escape.

The widows are too small and the room is extremely steady.

Just as I'm doing this, I hear the door click and open from the other side.

My breath catches in my throat as I see one of the men from earlier.

It's the Korean one, with the cropped hair, smooth skin and the bullring nose piercing.

"Get dressed, the boss will see you now" he says.

His voice is deeper than I expected it to be, but calm and unwavering

I look down at myself to see that I am wearing hardly anything, my outfit from last night, a mess!

I turn away from him hurriedly and catch sight of some clothes folded neatly.

I change into them on and turn back, to see him still watching me.

"Let's go" He says, holding the door for me and I comply out of pure fear that he could switch up and murder me at any point.

We walk out of the room, entering the dimly lit corridor.

As we walk, I start to ask him questions.

"W- Who are you?" I stutter.

"Niko" he responds, shortly.

"Where are we?" I ask.

"The holding cells for the Phoenix Headquarters" he responds in the same manner.

My breath hitches significantly.

Holding quarters?

"Are you going to k-kill me?" I ask and he snorts.

"It's not my choice to make" he responds.

My heart sinks.

I am definitely, going to die.

I snap my mouth shut and we walk the rest of the way in silence.

He suddenly stops at a door.

His body obscures my view, so I can't see the password, he puts into the keypad and he opens the door, letting me in first, before entering himself.

When we enter the room, I catch sight of two people.

One of them is the mixed race boy that attacked me along with Niko.

He stands in military stance, hands  behind his back and looking straight ahead, with his legs hip- width apart.

Next, is a girl, also mixed race. She is about an inch or more taller than me.

She wears a plain black shirt, black ripped jeans, with a pair of white Jordans.

She looks at me passively, as if she's not holding a rifle in her hands.

She looks comfortable holding it and she also looks as if one wrong move from me, or anyone, will result in their immediate sudden death.

I'm officially scared of of a complete stranger.

"Sit" Niko instructs, pointing to a chair in the the middle of the room, which is paired off with an identical chair opposite to it.
In between them is a metal table.

I sit on one of the chairs, gingerly, clasping my hands in my lap.

What feels like an age, ticks on and on, until the door on the far side of the room clicks open and in enters Leonardo.

I sit, frozen in my seat.

My eyes trail down his body, when I notice that he has changed his clothes since I last saw him.

He wears a tailored suit, with a crisp white shirt, which is tucked into his trousers, which are held up by an expensive looking belt.
To finish off his look, he is wearing a pair of dress shoes.

"Young boss" each of them greet casually, with a slight smirk.
Leonardo nods at them and approaches me, hands in pockets.

"Dana" he says and I don't respond.

He sits on the chair opposite me, and he sits back.

"I have some questions for you and you're going to answer them as honestly as you can" he tells me.

"What... What makes you think I'll answer what you have to say?" I ask.

I feel hurt.

I feel betrayed.

He knew all along...

He-
       He used me!

Just like I used him.

He leans forwards in his seat, wrapping me in his intoxicating masculine cologne.

"Something tells me, you want to leave this room alive" He tells me, his accent bleeding through with seriousness.

I press my thighs together under the table.

Despite my life being in some serious danger, I can't help but be a little excited at his low tone of voice and dominant approach.

I say nothing and he nods.

"Sebastian" He says and the mixed race boy steps forward.

"Sir" he responds.

"Get the victim" he says and my brow furrows together.

Victim?

Out of the corner of my eye, I see Sebastian slip out of the room.

Leonardo stands up, towering over my sitting frame.

I sit there frozen still

"You're going to learn how we deal with the scum who mess with my family." He says, glaring deeply into my eyes, his eye colour a shade of dangerous deep green-brown.

He steps away from me and starts to unbutton his suit jacket, pulling it off and looking to the side.

"Sophia" He says and the mixed race girl, who stands with Niko in the corner steps out of the shadows, plucking his jacket out of his hands and helping him take off the expensive looking watch on his wrist.

Sophia then returns to her corner.

I hear a distant yell and my whole body tenses up.

Kojo...

The door swings open and Sebastian hauls in my brother, who struggles in his grasp, hands bound behind his back and clothes stained with blood.

His face is a mess!
Dried blood stick to his dark, purple bruised skin, scabs starting to become evident on his dark skin, especially on his left cheek.

I look at Leonardo, who looks at my brother struggling.

Kojo looks up at me and gasps, trying to run up to me.

Sebastian gives him a knee to the gut, which sends him kneeling into the ground, coughing.

"Sit him up" Leonardo orders, smoothly.

Niko helps Sebastian haul my older brother into a chair, cuffing his wrists to the arms of the chair, so that he can go nowhere.

Leonardo approaches him slowly.

"Anything you want to say, before you're questioned?" He asks him.

My brother raises his head and smirks.

"Why should I tell your yellow lookin' ass anything?" He slurs.

Leonardo grins softly and looks at me, making my heart jump, painfully.

He says nothing and turns back to my brother.

"I want answers" Leo says simply.

"So... Do I." My brother says.

Leonardo shrugs and looks at Niko, who nods.

"What do you want to know?" Leonardo asked.

"I know it was your father that killed my dad" Kojo spits, venomously.

My hearts skips at the mention of my dad.

"I want justice! All of you will pay!" He demands.

A sinister grin, breaks out on Leonardo's face and he throws his head back, howling with laughter.

He laughs and laughs until he looses breath and he wipes away a laughing tear.

Kojo looks at Leo with a deep scowl.

"Would have known that a Santiago find it funny!" My brother says angrily.

"Your bitch, momma  never teach you how to behave towards people?" Kojo asks with a smirk.

I look away, knowing my brother's fate.

Not, Ade....

A thick silence fills the room.

I look back, just in time, to see Leonardo smash his fist into Kojo's face, making the chair he is sitting on teeter backwards and a painful groan escape his lips.

He punches him again and again and again, a sickly crunch, erupting from his bones.

"Leo, stop!" I yell, desperately.

He stops.

He lowers his hand and walks up to me slowly.

He leans down so that he is at eye level with me, making me flinch.

"Eager to defend your brother?" He ask in a low voice.

He reaches up and holds my face gently with his non-bloodied up hand.

"A shame that he doesn't care for you at all" Leo shrugs and I start to feel angry.

"He does!" I retort.

"He's a little harsh, but... my brother loves me!" I say defiantly.

I look at my brother to see a little smug smirk has found its way to his face.

Leonardo looks at me blankly.

"Oh, really?" He asks.

"Ye-" I start, but I'm cut off, when Leo grabs the seat, while I'm still sitting in it and he drags it in his wake, the metal scraping loudly on the floor as he drags me across the room.
I grasp the arms of the chair, too fearful to protest.

He sits me facing opposite my older brother, with a couple of metres distance between us.

Kojo looks at me and I nearly turn away.
"Tell her, what you told me" he instructs Kojo.

What?

Kojo glares at him.

"There is nothing to tell!" He says.

Leonardo raises an eyebrow.

"No?" He asks and Kojo scowls deeper.

Leonardo shrugs.

"Sophia?" He calls.

Sophia steps forwards and holds out her phone.

Kojo's eyes widen.

"You wouldn't!" Kojo protests.

"Shhhh" Leo responds, holding a finger to his lips.

Kojo says nothing but glares intensely at Leonardo.

"Play the recording" Leo orders.

Sophia unlocks her phone and starts to play a voice recording.

I listen intently, my heart dropping deeper into my chest as the recording goes on.

"If that's what it takes... Kill her. Go ahead, but I'll never speak... We were probably gonna sell her body anyway" the recording says.

It's my brother's voice, ringing out as clear as the day.

I sit in my chair rigidly.

He was...

He was going to sell me away?

I stare at him in shock.

"Dana" He says, when he sees me rising from my seat, slowly.

I look him up and down and step towards him and see a bullet wound in his foot.

Sophia steps forwards to intercept, but Leo raises a hand to stop her and she stops him.

"Dana, don't trust him, he's lying-" Kojo starts to lie, but howls in pain, when I drag my foot harshly along the bullet wound, not stopping till I hear the sound of his flesh tear.

"You... You were going to sell me away?" I state, more than ask.

He looks at me, breaths laboured.

"Dana, it's not like that!" He protests.

"Then?!" I ask, voice raised.

My skin boils as I think back to all the times he hurt me, physically and emotionally.

Pushing me to my breaking point constantly.

"I- I..." He says searching for another lie.

I grit my teeth and lift my foot up to the seat of his chair, kicking it back.

He gasps in shock as his chair along with his body hits the floor with a a loud resounding 'clang!'

I feel tears flood my eyes as he starts to beg me not to hurt him any more.

I start to kick him hard in the ribs, chest and face.

He groans yelling at me to stop but I don't.

I don't stop, when blood spurts from his lips and I know I'm forcing it out of him.

I don't stop, when his cries of pain, stop because he has passed out.

I want him to feel what I feel!

A pair of strong arms wrap around my middle, and they drag me away, my vision blurred with tears.

Leonardo.

"Enough" he mutters.

"We need him alive to answer our questions." He tells me.

I feel my body relax into him and he stands me upright.

"Sebastian, get him to Tatyana. I want him alive" Leo says simply.

Sebastian nods and with the help of Niko, he drags my brother's limp body away.

"Shall I take her to her room?" Sophia asks.

Leonardo shakes his head, no.

"I'll take her" he says.

He walks with me out of the room and takes me down the familiar corridor, in silence.

Once we get to my room, he opens it, letting me in and he walks in after me.

I sit on the bed and stare into space.

I nearly killed my brother.

I.... nearly killed my brother.

And I feel no remorse whatsoever!

                          ***

Leonardo Santiago's POV.

I walk up to Dana, who sits on the bed, face straight.

The crying has stopped completely and now she just sits motionless as if she had never been crying.

"I'll tell you anything you want to know" she says quietly and I nod.

"Good" I respond. I turn away from her and walk to the door.

Just as my hand touches the door, I hear her call my name.

"Leo" She says.

I turn around.

"Yes?" I ask.

"Were you lying, when you said you loved me?" She asks, not looking into my eyes.

"Were you?" I ask, shooting the question back.

She shakes her head, no.

"I was telling the truth" she whispered quietly.

"So was I" I tell her.

She looks up at me.

"How long have you known?" She asks.

I shrug.

"Ruben told me, a few days after you came to our school" I say.

Her eyes widen and she looks away suddenly.

"Why didn't you just expose me right away?" She asks.

"I needed more evidence" I respond simply.

She stays quiet.

"When can I leave?" She asks.

"You leave when I say so" I respond and she looks up at me, eyes blazing.

She walks up to me, directly in my face, fists balled up at her sides, her short body, tense.

"You can't just keep me here like some prisoner!" She protests.

"I... I told you that I would tell you what I know!" She exclaims, feeling so angry that she is stuttering, her curls bouncing around her face.

She looks so adorable when she's angry.

I take her rant as an opportunity to look at her.

She wears a white t- shirt and a pair of black leggings that hug her ass like a second skin.

Who even picked these clothes?!

Ugh.

I stop checking her out, when I see that she is glaring at me hard.

"Now is not the time!" She says exasperatedly.

I grin a little to myself.

"You can't do this!" She says, poking me in the chest.

"I've confessed!" She yells.

"I know I've done wrong, stringing you this whole time, Leo I know. I didn't want to hurt you... or you mom or even your sister!" She says.

"And my dad?" I ask.

"I thought he was responsible for my father's death until tonight" She says softly.

"Put yourself in my shoes" she tells me, looking down.

"I... I was going to tell you straight after our date" she says.

I hold her jaw and lift her face up so that her eyes meet mine.

I see that she is being genuine and I feel slightly bad.

Only slightly.

"You didn't trust me" I say.

She sighs.
"I do" she tells me.

"I- I love you Leonardo. How hard is it to see that I love you so much?!" She asks me.

I turn my face away, my heart hammering in my chest.

"Do you really? Or do you just want me for this minute now that we're both vulnerable?" I ask.

She reaches up and wraps her arms around my neck, burying her face into my neck, lips pressing on me slightly.

I close my eyes and breath in her fresh scent.

"I think it's a little bit of both" she responds, kissing my neck.

"Just pick one!" I almost beg.

She presses her body against mine and guides my hands to her waist and I let them slip down to her ass, giving it a small squeeze.

"Why rush?" She mutters into my neck, before kissing my jaw and then dotting a trail of small kisses on my cheek and ear.

"Dana..." I say.

"Leonardo" she responds, continuing to kiss my face.

She kisses my chin, her lips just at the edge of mine.

"We... we shouldn't do this" I say gently.

"Why?" She asks.

"You know what is could lead to" I say.

"And?" She asks.

"You're not ready" I tell her.

"Who, me or you?" She asks.

Before I can respond, she presses her lips to mine, kissing me.

*PLAY NOW*

I can't help but kiss her back, slowly at first, but then more and more heatedly.

I pick her up and she wraps her legs around my waist, arms slung around my neck as we continue making out.

I carry her to the bed in the corner of the dimly lit room and lay on it with her, not breaking the kiss.

"Her hands slip to my chest and she starts to unbutton my shirt.

I stop her.

"I don't have protection" I tell her.

She nods.

"I'm on the pill" she says smiling shyly and I nod.

I pull down her leggings and drop them to one side, letting her drag off my shirt.

^^ (Leo's tattoos, because 🤤. )

She stares at my body, mouth hung open slightly and I smirk a little.

I pull her shirt over her head and start to kiss her neck, which makes her giggle.

I suck her neck gently and she runs her hands down my back, before her hands move to my trousers.

She unbuckles my belt and pulls down my trousers, slipping her hands down my boxers to feel my hardness in her hands.

I groan lowly when she moves her hands on me gently, intentionally stirring trouble.

She pulls down my boxers and sees my little friend, standing attention.

She stares at me with  slightly hooded eyes and continues to kiss me.

I kiss her back and slowly pull down her panties rubbing my hand over her heat, making her gasp.

"I'm ready" she responds and I look at her.

"Are you sure?" I ask and she nods.

I slip into her slowly and she gasps, whimpering a little.

She closes her eyes and bites her lip.

"Are you okay?" I ask and she nods.

"Continue, please" She says.

I nod and continue, moving into her.

After a few minutes, she relaxes and starts to enjoy it.

"Hm, Leo, faster!" She moans and I bite my lip.

She wraps her legs around my torso and tries to pull me closer.

"Please, Leo, now..." she whines.

I lean down and bite her earlobe, sucking on it.

"Patience" I mutter into her ear.

I continue at the same speed, torturing her slowly.

She moans, holding her face in my neck and panting to keep up.

I pick up speed a little and she gasps.

"Leo!" She moans.

She tightens around me and I bite my lip a little.

"Don't" I warn and she nods.

I continue and she mutters a string of curse words as I grip her thighs and become less gentle, kissing and sucking on her neck.

"I c-can't hold it!" She moans and I grin.

I ignore her comment and continue.

She drags her nails down my back and unable to hold it in anymore, she bursts on me, crying out.

I pull out of her and lay next to her, exhausted.

"Thank you" she mutters, laying on my chest.

"Hm" I mutter into her hair, wrapping my arms round her waist.

"I love you..." I whisper and she remains silent.

I look down at her and she has drifted off to sleep.

I feel myself slowly doing the same.
