"To heal a wound is to stop touching it. Forgive and move on."

Adriano Pov~

"I don't know about this Adriano." Matteo says wearily as he sit across from me in the office.  "We are going to talk to her and find out what she knows. Why is that so hard?" I said in a gruff voice. "Yea but we locker her up! Lei è pazza!" (She's crazy!) He spat.

"Lo so. (I know.) But I need to know why she's here." I say as my started to get ticked off sitting up in my chair. "Just be careful." He says sighing. I smirked at his worried face.

"Anyway besides Clara showing up, did you speak to Raf?" I asked while puling the folder out of my desk and opening it to reveal the contents of the damn work that never seems to lessen. "No he is with the others. Their cooped up for now but it's only a matter of time before they get claustrophobic in this house and demand to leave. " Matteo answers picking up the other file and beginning to work.

"They aren't allowed to leave. Every time they step foot outside the perimeters someone tries to kill them." I deadpanned. A knock resonated on the door cutting off whatever Matteo was about to say. Mio amore and Yana's head popped in. "Bad time?" Gia asked.

"Never. Come on." i called out causing a smile to spread on my face at seeing my gorgeous wife. She sauntered her way over to me and sat in my lap, I looked her up and down and felt my lust grow instantly. She placed her soft lips on mine making me deepen the kids instantly. She sucked in her breathe and pulled away which caused an annoyed grunt to escape the back of my throat. "Not now love." Her sweet voice whispered in my ear.

I saw the devilish smirk on her face. She knew what she was doing. "Don't tempt me cara." (Dear) I murmured against her lips once more before pulling away. I turned my attention to Matteo who had Yana on his lap. "As much as I love your company, why are you both here?" I ask the two girls. They both looked at eachother doing that weird sibling thing where they speak with their face and then they looked towards us.

"Uh-oh." Matteo mutters knowing this wasn't going to be good. These two together are destructive. "No, it's not hat bad this time. "Yana says matter of factly,. I rolled my eyes at that "Yeah right, what do you guys want?" I say.

Gia smacked my arm "We can't just come to see our husbands." She claims. I just gave her a blank look. "Okay fine. Clara is causing an uproar downstairs with everyone else. I suggest you guys deal with her and quick. Leena and Mili can't really stand her and the kids are trying to spy on her and when she catches them they freak out and get in trouble with Leena and Mili. It's a mess and then they come crying to me to save them." Gia exaggerates.

"Plus Gio hasn't come out of his room since breakfast after he spoke with the boys. This is really affecting him, and that's affecting Leena and the kids see it so the kids are steering clear of them. And Ano V keeps asking us questions and we don't know what to say!" Yana exclaims getting all worked up all over again.

"We need you guys to save us." Gia mutters. I sighed and looked over at Matteo. "Let's go do this." He says.

I nodded. "You grab Clara and meet me in the basement room." I instructed. "We'll handle this, you guys just keep everyone calm and away from the basement." Gia nodded and gave me a reassuring smile. Isn't it crazy how you fall in love with someone every day all over again. Never thought it was possible. I grabbed her face and gave her a bruising kiss. "Sii forte amore mio." (Be strong my love) I whisper to her. She nodded and got up.
