Kimberly nods and walks down the length of kitchen, running her fingers along the island in the middle. Her free hand strokes at her hard, little bump nestled under her dress. 607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HejpMEAJT

When she had called last week to announce she was coming, I was over the freaking moon! Alessio had apparently planned a surprise visit behind my back and I couldn't be more grateful to have my bestfriend next to me again. 607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WRjRcdrDs

They have been inseparable since I the night I was shot. Mom and dad discussed his past and made a promise to one another to move forward. The word 'Kuznetsov' has been deemed a dirty word in their household.607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFbKrlGwxk

Anna finally married that hunky blonde guy, Alonzo, in July. Their wedding was insane and I got to visit Italy for the first time since she moved. I figured she would go all out anyways though to top any other Romano party in history.607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zSAz024hJ

Giovanni and Beto are doing really good from what I've been told. Alessio appointed Giovanni second in command and Beto is the head of all shipment control. The boys had been super busy, especially Alessio.607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqch2Fw8HP

Since moving to New York a month ago, I have seen him maybe twice so far which is a huge change for both of us. The day Alessio proposed to me in the hospital room, we've been joined at the hip. Every day we'd go explore the city, take607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCo0BZJwJS2

"Honestly, really good." I look around at my little place, everything mostly unpacked after a month of me dragging my feet. "I miss seeing everyone so much, but it has been really great here. School is a little much, but I'm doing good and the coffee shop I transferred to is an absolute blast."607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXDCmYBkPp
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIZQbuyAz5
"Making me want to move to New York!" Kim laughs and moves to sit next to me. "So, how has everything been with Alessio? After...what happened, you guys seem to have been real attached to one another."607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFceqIrDaTS

New Message. 607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVwSReY4eY

I just roll my eyes at her and step out onto the side walk with her close behind. There are cars everywhere, but from what I can see...none look like his.607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKewLKK39Ib
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvN6XuIAQd
And trust me, I can spot his car out immediately. Not to mention, the car he got me is now safely back home with him.607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Y4yaXLDeC

The two of us head down the sidewalk, slipping by the herd of people headed in the opposite direction. I pull my phone out and quickly dial his number.607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMzyDpmn4r
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7pCo7535u
"What?" Kim asks and pulls me quickly against a wall near us so we aren't trampled. "He said outside in five, right?"607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4hJ5t0pd1

"Olivia, don't move." Beto demands.607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOeoOzA9nx

"Olivia? What's going on?" Alessio asks, sounding concerned.607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXX2990Q8Sp

"Get inside your place. My phone is missing, I'll be there in half an hour. I have some men stationed in the city, they'll be alerted and on guard in no less than five." He says quickly. His voice serious, business-like. Absolutely no room for argument or sarcasm.607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43LVKi98SW
607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxJl9lq67L
I nod, mostly to myself. A massive lump forming in my throat as I start to pull the phone away from my ear a bit.607Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucghCXlCJn
