"I already fucking told you Tony, just bomb the place. As long as we know he's inside, all you have to do is bomb it. We've got trained professionals with all the equipment to pull it off with no casualties on our side."

"Do that if it goes wrong." We all turned to Kaito who was staring back at us with no emotion. "If I fuck up, just bomb him before he has a chance to figure out the plan."

"You'll be inside Kaito, it's too dangerous." I forgot Mia was even in the room, it probably wasn't the best idea to have this conversation in front her. "She's right Kaito, you'll die."

"I told you, I wanted to prove my loyalty to you, if that's how it goes down then that's how it is." I shook my head and walked past Kaito to get a drink from the mini bar. It was silent while I opened the refrigerator and took out the price list. A small smile tugged at my lips when I remembered the conversation I 

Antonia.

"This conversation is taking too damn long. You've got two options Alan, come to Portugal, or be the reason the bitch dies with your unborn child." Her familiar voice echoed through the room.

"The conditions are that you leave your family Alan, they're a distraction to you, we've seen it over the last few years. They cloud your judgement. You're not as ruthless as you once were."

"I'm not leaving her!" I aimed my gun right at Dante willing myself to pull the fucking trigger. Every thought, urge and impulse was telling me to pull that trigger, but I couldn't. I couldn't do it. Dante's smirk broadened while he watched me point the gun at him.

"You're not going to do it Alan, you can't. You love her too much."

Eventually my grip on the gun slacked and my arm dropped to my side in defeat. For once I couldn't find a solution, there was nothing I could do. My love for Ruth was to

"Call Kaito, tell him to come to London." I didn't wait to see what their reactions were, instead I stood up and carried my two year old son into Ruth and I's room. She was still fast asleep when I walked in, how the hell she managed to sleep through the banging on the door, Tony and I arguing and Leo's crying is beyond me. That girl could sleep through world war three.

"Ruth." I shook her shoulder in an attempt to wake her up but all she did was turn over to face the other way. "Do you want to try?" Leo nodded and stretched his arms out, his way of telling me to put him down. I put him on the bed and he crawled over to Ruth before tapping her arm.

"Mama!" Even I flinched at the volume he used to wake her up, it probably wasn't the best idea for him to do it - but it worked. Ruth quickly sat up with a panicked look on her face, but she made sure to cover herself with the bedsheets afte
