Ash and the others waited patiently in the airport for Damien and the others to come. The girl was hopeful as it had been all over the news that the Parliament had suddenly declared to revoke their positions after a decade of sitting in the throne. She still didn’t know how he was able to pull it off.

“Their plane has arrived. They just called.” Noel told them as he approached them. “Yuri is with them as well.”

Aleksei and Ash gave a breath of relief and hopefully looked at one another before smiling. They all waited at the entrance anxiously until a group of black-coated men finally emerged. Several cameras immediately flash as Damien Blackwell finally arrives back in the country.

He spanned his eyes around and saw his family waving at him. Beside him were Sherlock, Shireen and Yuri. Yuri was slouching, and his eyes were lifeless. He had tons of bandages around his body, but nevertheless, one could not explain why Yuri remained to look so dashing even with so many scars.

    The ride home was exhausting. Ash and the others in the truck were all fast asleep. “Look at these siblings. When they’re asleep, they look so innocent, but when they’re awake, they’re so devilish.” Noel commented as he leaves the car. Damien chuckled. “I suppose we all look vulnerable and gullible when we’re not awake.” Damien was the most exhausted from everyone. He had not had proper rest for two days. The maids of the manor immediately approached him as he descended from his car. The matron of the maids, who had been serving the Blackwells since the very start, was the first to greet Damien. “Welcome home, Master. We are so glad to see that you’re home safe and sound. Congratulations for the victory.” “Thank you.” Damien forced a smile even if he was so exhausted. “Have you prepared the room for Yuri that I told you to?”“Of course.” The maids nodded. “We knew you were going to win and bringing him home so we prepared it almost immediately.”“Thank you for your faith.”“Howeve

    “Easy, brother.” Aleksei handed a glass of water to Yuri and smacked his back repeatedly. Yuri consumes all of it in one gulp and slams the glass back onto the table, causing the plates to jump for a short second. He gave Damien a strict and then it turned into horror when he looked at Ash.“Are you actually being serious right now? You’re not tripping me?”“Having a baby should have been more surprising that Damien and I getting married.” Ash sighed. “So you don’t consent?”“I just think it’s too fast.” Yuri palmed his face and shook his head repeatedly. “If if they postpone it, there won’t be any time.” His brother whispered to him. “They’re both adults, they have known each other for the longest time, and Ash knows Damien more than anyone else does since she protected him when he was still serving in the orphanage.”“And besides…” he then pointed at Ash’s stomach. “…the baby’s about to be born.”“There still nine months—”“Six.” Ash corrected him. “Six months until my child is born

    She stood before a mirror, wearing a long white dress and three maids bringing her hair into a small braid. She held her breath as she stared at her reflection in the mirror. “Look at how pretty you are.” Lilian smiled at her while giving final touches to her veil. “We’ve known each other since we were kids, never hung out I know, but… you were always dressed in something rowdy. I always knew you were beautiful, however.” Ash chuckled. “Ash, you’ll start wearing pretty dresses from now on.” “I’m not very used to them though I’ve worn them on occasions with Damien.” She told her. “God, this feels surreal.” “If you weren’t so rowdy with your attitude, perhaps you’d wear the same white dress.” Eloise entered the room to see her daughter and her daughter-in-law. “Feeling comfortable?” “Not really.” Ash honestly replied to her. “It’s a little itchy… and errr… heavy?” They all chuckled. Eloise pulled a stool and helped Ash with her dress. She stared at the girl’s blue eyes and sigh

    THREE YEARS AFTER "Your child has been going in and out of the classroom lately, Mrs. Blackwell, we've asked him what's wrong and he doesn't seem to tell us." In a small teacher's office, a young boy no older than 3 years old sat on a small chair with his mother beside him. The boy had a raven colored hair and big, bright blue eyes, which gazed deeply at his mother beside her who donned the same hue of irises. The boy's mother cradled him close and sighed. "When has this been going on?" "Since last week when Tyrion came to school." the teacher worriedly told her. "He's normally a very well-behaved and soft spoken boy. Tyrion has always been calm, but never that distant. I've been noticing him getting a little panicky lately." "Is this true, darling?" Ash asked her only son, Tyrion and brushed the boy's hair with her fingers. "Is someone bothering you at school?" It has officially been three years since Ash had left the mafia business with Damien. Now, she had become used to her

Now, he doesn’t usually go to such lengths to hire an entire park, but it was necessary for his son’s safety and enjoyment. They arrived there with a line of bodyguards. Tyrion was a bright boy., he knew that when the tall men dressed in black, it meant that they were about to go to a place where he should be cautious. “I’ll behave.” He told his mom, which made her smile.“Daddy didn’t have to rent the entire park all to yourself, right?” Ash crouched and pinched her son’s cheeks.He nodded hesitantly. “Eh? You actually want to go to the park?”“I told you so.” Damien crossed his arms and smiled. “He’s just shaking his head because he feels pressured. Now, then, Ty, what should we ride first?”The boy excitedly points to the huge octopus ride, and off they went with his father. Ash only sighed and shook her head while chuckli

    Ash started to have a bad feeling when Damien was not answering his phone. All of a sudden, she gets a call from Noel.“Noel! Damien won’t answer his phone!”“I called him earlier to tell him there’s an impostor amongst the staff in the amusement park. I don’t know how he exactly got in. Damien went to the bathroom with Tyrion but that’s also the last I have heard from him.”Gritting her teeth, Ash also ended her call and gave the phone to Damien’s other secretary. “Where are you going, Mistress?” “I have to find Damien.” Ash then sprinted towards the bathroom of the amusement. There were plenty. However, she immediately knew it was the right one because of the other staff that had gathered in behind the building. It seemed like there was a commotion. Ash ran towards them and saw Damien lying on the floor with blood all over him. He was knocked out.The secretary finally caught up, she gasped for air. “Please don’t run like that, Mistress!

    Mikhail’s eyes widened as the bullet almost ended his life. And in his daughter’s hand, too. He stared at her wide-eyed and then stepped back. Ash’s wolf-like eyes were glowing in a menacing shade of blue, the same as his. But what terrified him was that there was no clemency in hers.“Father, I do not want to do this. But you’re leaving me with no choice.”“It seems you have completely disregarded the fact that I was the reason why you were even born in this world! Why do you have all the wonderful and expensive things? Have you completely lost your mind? Have you long abandoned our family and the memories we made in Petersburg?!”Ash shut her jaw and looked away, not wanting to cry in front of him and show him any weakness. She knew her father very well. The moment she would show her weakness, he would turn the tables on her. Right now, she has the trigger to his chest, and she cannot lose that fight. “We made no good memories for me to carry on, Father,” she told him. “And you were

    Author Update

    Hi everyone, it's me Sabbiekeku, again! I have made additional edits to the book regarding name-switches, loose ends of the story and inconsistent information. I sincerely apologize for this as I have been very preoccupied during the making of the finale of this book. Anyway, if you may have noticed, the book's title have been changed to 'Revenge of the Unforeseen Mafia Boss' from its former title, 'Secretly A Mafia Boss: Bittersweet Vengeance'. This is one of the major changes that have been implemented to my book with my editor's suggestion and I thought I should inform readers of that. You've come to the end of this book. Thank you for being involved. Sabbiekeku

    Author's Notes

    Hi everyone! It's Sabbiekeku here! I have reviewed and did all the necessary changes all the chapters, and it might be reflected next week. I also noticed that I placed Mr. Hunter, instead of Blackwell for the Chapter ' Wake Up'. Hunter is a different character from a story I am writing and I think I placed his name on accident! (This is what you get for having so many characters in your head...) I usually write my stories during nighttime, as in the morning I have college classes; so it makes me a little bit light-headed. Please pardon me. I also had my midterms this month, so it was quite a challenge. I am so happy for the support that this book had garnered, and I actually didn't expect it. You make so much happy every time you unlock chapter and support me. It really means a lot as an author! BONUS REMARKS: I initially planned to actually kill off Ash. I am a very straightforward fantasy writer and usually, when my characters are engaging in really fatal fights, I really do

    Finale

    Damien's heart sank at the sight of Ash's confusion. He had hoped that she would remember him, but it seemed like she had no recollection of anything that had happened before the accident."I'm Damien," he said, trying to keep his voice steady. "Your husband."Ash furrowed her brow, looking at him with a mix of fear and uncertainty. "Husband?" she repeated as if the word didn't make sense to her.Damien took a deep breath, trying to keep his emotions in check. "Yes," he said, his voice barely above a whisper. "We've been married for years now."Ash's eyes widened in surprise, and she tried to sit up, wincing at the pain in her body. "I don't remember," she said, her voice shaking. "I don't remember anything."Damien took her hand, holding it tightly. "It's okay," he said, trying to sound reassuring. "You've been through a lot. But I'm here for you. I'll help you remember."Over the next few days, Damien spent every moment by Ash's side, trying to help her piece together her memories. H

    As Damien slowly opened his eyes, he felt a piercing pain in his head. He tried to move, but his body felt heavy and weak. For a moment, he couldn't remember where he was or what had happened.Then it all came flooding back to him. The gunfight, Mikhail, and the realization that he had killed his own father-in-law. Damien's heart sank as the memories overwhelmed him.He tried to sit up, but his family members urged him to lie back down. "How are you feeling, Damien?" Eloise, asked him softly.Damien shook his head, unable to find the words to describe the pain he was feeling. "What happened?" he managed to ask.Lilian, his cousin, took his hand and gently explained the events that had led up to him being in the hospital. "You were shot, Damien," she said. "The doctors managed to save you, but you were in a coma for a few days."Damien's eyes widened in shock. He couldn't believe that he had been so close to death. He looked around the room and saw the worried faces of his family member

    Father Versus Father

    Damien, Ash, and Tyrion were relieved to be out of the warehouse and away from Mikhail's grasp. They were grateful for Clarissa's help in getting them out, but something about her behavior felt off. She seemed distracted, her eyes darting around nervously, and she kept checking her surrounding every few minutes.Damien approached her, asking if everything was okay. "You've been acting weird since we got out of there. Is there something you're not telling us?" he asked.Clarissa shook her head, offering a weak smile. "No, no, everything's fine. I'm just a bit shaken up," she replied.Ash placed a hand on Clarissa's shoulder, offering her comfort. "It's okay, Clarissa. We're all a bit shaken up after what happened. But we're safe now. Let's go home," she said.They started walking towards the car, but Clarissa hesitated. She looked back at the warehouse, then at her phone again. Damien and Ash exchanged a worried glance."Clarissa, come on. We need to get out of here," Damien said, his v

    Rescue

    As Damien crouches in the dark corner of his cell, he listens intently to the conversation taking place outside. He hears the triumphant laughter of Mikhail and his men as they celebrate their recent victory over the police force. Damien's mind drifts back to his childhood memories of his mother, Rose, and how she was brutally murdered by Mikhail's men.Mikhail begins to brag about the attack, recounting the details of how they had invaded Rose's home and dragged her out into the streets. He talks about how she had begged for mercy, but they had ignored her pleas and continued to beat her until she lay lifeless on the ground.As Mikhail continues to boast, Tyrion, who was listening all along, became angry. He stands up and starts to move towards the cell door as he knew his father was there. But the guards are quick to notice, and they rush towards him, grabbing him by the arms and throwing him back into the corner.Mikhail turns to face the guards, "Make sure he doesn't cause any tro

    Abducted

    Damien tried to ignore the pain in his body as he was thrown into a dark, damp room. He could feel blood trickling down his face from the blows he had received. It was only when the door slammed shut that he realized he was alone with his captors.He could hear footsteps approaching and braced himself for the worst. The door creaked open and in walked Mikhail, a twisted smile on his face."Well, well, well. Look who we have here," Mikhail said, mockingly. "The great Damien, reduced to a bloody mess."Damien gritted his teeth, not wanting to give his captor the satisfaction of seeing him in pain."What do you want from me, Mikhail?" Damien asked, his voice hoarse.Mikhail laughed. "Want? I already have what I want. Your family is in shambles, and now you're here, helpless."Damien's mind raced, thinking of a way out of this situation. He couldn't let Mikhail win."You know, Mikhail, you and I can be in-laws. Think about Ash, your daughter. Think about your grandson. Do you really want t

    Warehouse

    Damien anxiously waited for any news about his son's whereabouts. The past few days had been a blur of dead ends and false leads, but he refused to give up. He knew he had to find his son before it was too late.As he paced back and forth in his living room, his phone rang. It was Carlton, his friend and the lieutenant of the police department."Damien, I've got some intel for you," Carlton said. "We've been tracking Mikhail's movements and we've got a lead on his location."Damien's heart skipped a beat. "Where is he?""He's holed up in an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of town. We've got a team ready to move in, but we wanted to let you know first.""Thanks, Carlton. I'll be there."Damien quickly grabbed his jacket and headed out the door. He knew he had to act fast. Mikhail was dangerous, and he wouldn't hesitate to harm his son if he felt threatened. Ash tried to follow him, but Damien told her to stay. "What are you doing? He's my son too! Didn't I warn you that my father

    Desperation

    Damien made his way toward the graveyard where his parents were laid to rest. As he approached their graves, he felt a sense of calm wash over him. The sun was setting, casting a warm glow across the field of headstones. He sat down in front of their graves, feeling the cool grass beneath him."Mom, Dad," he began softly, "I know you're not here to answer me, but I need your advice." He took a deep breath, trying to steady his nerves. "Tyrion, our son, has been kidnapped by Mikhail. I'm scared that things might not go as planned during the rescue. I don't know what to do."As he spoke, Ash watched from a nearby corner. She could see the pain and fear in his eyes, but she also saw his strength and determination. She believed in him, even if he didn't believe in himself.Damien continued to talk to his parent's graves, pouring out his heart to them. He shared his worries, his fears, and his hopes for the future. He talked about his love for Ash and their family, and how he was willing to
