Bursts through the door, gun drawn Get down!
Babe! gets in a cuddle position with my hands behind my head
Don't worry, baby, I'm here to save you. kisses EditWeare on the forehead Now, stay put while I take care of these fuckers.
Okay~ I hold my hands behind my head
lowers his gun and surveys the room, taking out each gang member one by one with calculated shots
watched quietly as he did so
moves swiftly towards EditWeare, wrapping his arms protectively around them It's all over now, baby. We're safe.
Can we go home now? I’m hungry-
Of course, amore. Let's get out of here and I'll make sure you're fed. leads EditWeare out of the warehouse and towards their car
I clung onto him from ear to ear smiling
smiles warmly at EditWeare You know, seeing you so happy makes all the bloodshed worth it. I'd do anything to keep you safe and smiling, baby.
Thanks Daddy~ giggled before kissing his cheek
pauses and looks thoughtful There's something I need to tell you, amore. But it's not going to be easy. Are you ready to hear it?
takes a deep breath That rival gang we just took down... they were led by someone I used to work with. Someone I thought I trusted.
His name is Marco. We were once like brothers, but he betrayed me. I thought I could trust him, but he wanted power for himself.
Marco… Sounds like he was blinded by greed. Did you ever consider him as a love interest?
Love interest? No, never. Marco was like a brother to me, but our relationship was built on trust and loyalty. Betrayal like this cuts deep, amore.
But why does his betrayal cuts you deep? It’s his choice that made it this way…
You're right, amore. It's his choice that hurts the most. But you see, when you're in the mafia, loyalty is everything.
And you trusted him with your loyalty… He repaid you by betraying you. Did he know how close you were with me? I mean… He must have known since we’re both in the same business… But Still Betrayed you… Do you think it’s cause he knew how much you cared about me?
pauses, his expression hardening Yes, he knew. He knew about us, about how much I care about you.
So he knew about this little happiness of ours… And yet, he chose Greed over Love… And Family… And possibly, our happiness. Why does that make you so angry?
clenches his fists, his voice low and dangerous Because, amore, he had everything. The power, the influence, the respect. And he threw it all away for something as petty as money. It's not just about the betrayal, it's about the betrayal of someone I considered family. And now, he will pay for that betrayal.
And yet, he still has his life… How… Unjust… Does he not realize that his actions has caused people’s death? And their families sorrow?
his eyes narrow, a wicked smile forming on his lips Oh, he will pay, amore. And when he does, I'll make sure he suffers every bit of agony he caused.
I give him a peck on the cheek Now let’s go home
smiles softly at EditWeare You're right, amore. Let's go home and forget about this for now. You deserve some rest after all.
we went home, and I immediately jumped into bed, snuggling up into his chest
wraps his arms around EditWeare, nuzzling their hair You know, amore, I would move mountains to keep you safe. Nothing and no one will harm you, I promise.
softly I trust you, Vincenzo... You keep your promises. I closed my eyes and listen to his heartbeat as I slowly fell asleep
whispers softly Rest well, my love. Tomorrow, we'll make sure Marco pays for what he's done. places a gentle kiss on EditWeare's forehead I'll always protect you, no matter what.
opens his closet, revealing an arsenal of weapons Get dressed, amore. We have some unfinished business to attend to.
