“Sure is.”

“Did you hit your head or something? Because you’re not thinking straight.”

“I’m thinking about my wife’s pussy like I always do. I would say my head is just fine.”

“My God… is the pain making you high? Never mind. Stop talking and keep walking. You’re heavy!”

“It’s because of how big my dick is.”

“Shut up.”

“Yes, baby.”

I was panting, my body aching and sweating, as we finally made it out from the building with Giovanni and Michael close behind. The outside was even more chaotic; shouting, gunshots, cars on fire, and dead bodies on the ground.

It was a literal war zone we had stepped into.

I looked around, observing that Damiano’s men had the upper hand, and it appeared to be under control. There were so many armed men present, some I recognized, and some I didn’t.

My eyes landed on a group of men standing in a semi-circle, guarding someone. My gaze lowered, and I saw Cara’s father on the ground, beaten and tied up.

“Did you catch Gaetano too?” I asked Damiano, feeling hopeful that this nightmare was ending.

“No. The bastard is hiding like the coward he is and left his brother out in the open.” Damiano groaned. I looked at him, noticing his condition had worsened.

“Sixty seconds! Get away from here!” Renzo shouted, and everyone started to move.

“Shit… Althaia, you have to go. Now.” I felt him trying to move away from me, but I held him tightly, almost wanting to slap him again.

“You really need to get that head checked if you think I’m leaving my husband behind. Shut up and keep walking!”

Right now, I didn’t care if I caused him more pain as I held him tightly and walked as fast as I could. He would be okay as long as I got him far enough away from here.

“Antonio!” I shouted after him when I saw him.

Antonio spotted us, shouting orders out in Italian, and ran to us with a bunch of men. As soon as they grabbed Damiano, I collapsed to the ground in exhaustion. It was physically impossible for me to get up.

“Forgive me for touching you, Donna.” Niccolò said before he picked me up in his arms and ran.

I held onto him tightly when I started to hear low explosions. Looking behind him, my eyes widened in terror when I saw the end of the building erupting in flames. It kept going, one explosion after the other, like a domino effect, coloring the night sky with orange flames.

“Cover your face!” Niccolò shouted to me.

Quickly, I shielded my face with my arms just as a deafening blast erupted. The blast-wave was intense, sending us forward. Niccolò absorbed most of the impact as we tumbled across the ground.

Coughing and squinting my eyes, I rose to my hands and knees, shielding my face from the lingering heat.

“Are you okay?” I asked him, and he gave me a thumbs up.

“All good.” He reassured me. I nodded, waving away the smoke that was quickly filling up the area.

I looked around for Damiano, stumbling up to my feet, when I saw him lying on the ground.

“We need to take him to the hospital and get him treated right away.” I told them as they helped me get Damiano up on his feet. “Do you think everyone got out?” I asked Antonio as I looked around, luckily seeing many of Damiano’s men were present.

“From our side, yes.” He said.

“Okay, that’s good. Did anyone find Gaetano yet?” I asked. Antonio shook his head, and I sighed.
