"What the hell happened to you?" Luca asks as I walk through the hospital car park.

I'm really not in the mood to talk. So I glare at him and grab my car keys. Athena looked stressed so I'm hoping bringing Rayen will calm her mind as we wait for Sloane to wake up.

He will be heartbroken once he finds out his favorite aunt is in hospital. I don't even know how to break the news to him. Hell, I don't know how to tell him Athena is his mother. I'm still trying to find a way to explain that.

"I just saw Zayan and the whole clan walk into Athena's room. Aren't you missing out on the party?" Luca asks, and I halt my steps, turning to face him.

"What?"

He laughs, "She must have told you shit that bled your heart for you not to notice."

I lock my jaw.

"Pick up Rayen from his daycare and bring him here. Also-" I pause, stepping closer. "I want you to keep an eye on Athena. I don't trust anyone else to protect her."

Luca raises a brow, the playfulness fading,

"Do you have someone you suspect may be after her?"

"I do. But I'm not sure. I'll look into it once Athena is okay and Sloane stabilizes. Right now, they're my priority. Have Ryan organize a few of your men to stand guard on Sloane's door, too."

He nods. "Understood."

Luca Alessandro Russo might look like he was born in a suit and tailored charm, but underneath that easy grin and playfulness is a man carved by war and violence.


He trained in multiple countries, fluent in five languages, and capable of killing with anything as innocent as a leaf. He's more than just my best friend.
