THE BOND OF THE FIRST BORN

His White Rose

Morning came soon after. Adriana had her shower and dried her hair. She then put her uniform on and for some reason, she looked dejected. Normally, she would be in high spirits, getting ready for school. For a good girl like her, studying is one of the things she enjoys. But now, she looked reluctant as she sat in front of her hairdresser table. Soon, she heard the door knocking from the outside, and she quickly put on her cheerful smile. "Come in," she said, and from the reflection in the mirror, she could see a familiar figure approaching her. Adriana carved a smile that was obviously forced because it didn't reach her eyes. "How would you like your hair today?" The same question every morning. Her smile became more bitter, but she managed to answer, "Anything you want it to be, brother." James, who had been taking good care of his little sister, could easily see the insincere smile she had on her beautiful face. His hand then carefully combed Adriana's silky, blonde, long hair before he slowly braided it down to the end. His fingers did it effortlessly before tying the end together. The French braid looked so good on Adriana, and the neat braid made her face much clearer to see. Even though he just came back a few months ago, James's skill did not get rusty and was still able to braid his sister's hair. Adrianna Rose Thomas She is innocent, she is beautiful, and she is an angel. She is a kind queen in her bright, colourful world. While he tried his best to protect his sister from his dark world, fate always had another plan. Bang! Boom! A rain of gunfire and thunderous bomb explosions deafened one particular region in Italy. The battle had begun half an hour ago, and it seemed like neither side was showing any sign of backing down. Pressing the earbud in his ear, a man asked in a stern voice, "Lui, how many men do we still have?" On the rooftop of the building right above the man who was speaking, the one holding the sniper rifle, along with five of his team members, responded, "Boss, a few of us are injured, and from my observation, the enemy shouldn't have much strength left by now." The one named Lui - full name Luigi De Luca - continued observing the situation and kept reporting everything he saw. He had with him five of the most experienced and skilled snipers in the underground world. There was no way their enemy could win this battle. Especially with a wise and strategic leader like Leo - Leonardo Andrea De Barone. His pride alone wouldn't allow him to lose. Leo, the most feared mafia king in Italy, was infamous for his ruthless and decisive personality. He was only twenty-eight years old, yet had already climbed his way to the top and made the De Barone family dominant in its business. Through the communication device in his ear, Luigi then heard Leo giving commands and checking in with every team. Luigi smiled, and once Leo finished giving his orders and listening to the updates, he finally commanded, "Rick, on the count of three, we strike!" Leonardo Andrea De Barone. A king of the dark underworld. His word is law, his presence is power, his decision is an order. A king void of emotion-driven only by wealth, power, and pleasure. He is the darkness, she is the light. He is the fire she unconsciously ignites. For life and death, whatever it might, She is the only one he wants in life.

"Ahhh. Let go of me you pervert!" Kalen shouted right to his face as she tried to pull out her wrist from Jackson's tight grip. 'Pervert?! No one ever called me that!’ Jackson fumed at that thought.

Kalen was about to complain but under Jackson's stern gaze, she knew she had to compromise. "Apology accepted. Now, be a good girl. You have to obey from this moment.." Jackson got cut off by Kalen protests outburst "Why should I obey you?. I'm not your employee nor girlfriend or wife!" "Seriously, you want me to do it again?" Jackson said as his face got closer, his warning was so obvious. "Humm.. Okay. Okay. I'll listen to you" Again Kalen compromised. ‘You perverted jerk!’ She cursed in her mind. "Good. Now go back home. I'll send someone to pick you up at 5" Jackson ordered her. She nodded like a good and well behaved puppy. Jackson satisfied and patted her head gently said "Good girl".
