Not pregnant

The words right there in bold made Kiana let out the biggest sigh of relief.

Thank god Luca didn't get me pregnant when he basically carried me out of my office to get into that car.

Three weeks, it had been three weeks since everything, since Luca told her everything. Since she found the camera. Since realising that she had been Giovanni's therapist and he was Luca's father, meaning that all the 'work' stories were real and were just code for criminal activity.

Three weeks since she took her first pregnancy test out of panic. Since she slept with Cassie and the two of them established that this was the end of them sleeping together, as no matter how good it was, it was bad for their friendship but they'd always and forever love each other as bestfriends, no matter what.

Kiana hadn't seen Luca once. She hadn't heard anything about the secret service. Well, it wasn't like she would've heard anything but she was pretty sure she was going to have to start looking closely at things in her life. No matter how normal it could be, she couldn't trust a lot of people and Luca had made that clear to her in his room that night.

She had been taking her medication regularly because she wanted to be better, for herself, her patients and Luc- No. No, just better for the first two reasons and it had been going well, but Kiana couldn't help but feel like she was missing something in her life.

Just as Kiana was finishing up her notes on another patient of hers, who had just come out of an abusive relationship and finally realised that they needed to see her to help themselves in the future, the door bell rung.

It was odd because Cassie, Tom and Kiana as a trio never invited anyone over so the doorbell being rung was extremely weird.

Cautiously, she left the room, making her way downstairs to the front door. As she looked through the peephole, she furrowed her eyebrows at the person stood on the other side.

Swinging the door open to its limit with the chain still on as she didn't trust them, Kiana addressed the person stood before her in the crack of the door. "Kiana" They smiled

"Antonio" Kiana acknowledged, raising an eyebrow as to why he was here

Cutting to the chase, Antonio knew that his flirty personality wasn't going to get him anywhere with Kiana, "I'm here to collect the-"

"The camera which was placed in my residence without my knowledge?" She asked, feigning sweetness as the malice dripped from every word

"Yes" he grumbled

"Well it's no longer a camera but if you still wish to collect the pieces, you're more than welcome to wait here whilst I get them for you" she smiled

"Pezzi? Dio, questa donna è davvero la futura moglie di Luca" Antonio smirked

(Pieces? God, this woman really is Luca's future wife)

Kiana ignored him speaking Italian as everyone seemed to take advantage of her lack of knowledge in the language and speak it fluently infront of her, which she found quite rude and annoying.

"So do you want it or not?" She asked as Antonio continued to smile at her

"Kiana" Antonio spoke making Kiana's heart race at the seriousness in his voice, but the smile which still adorned his face, letting the dimple on his right cheek prominent, "You have no idea do you?" He asked

"No idea about what? How can I have any idea about something which you've given me no information or context to what the hell you're talking about. I may be a therapist but that doesn't make me a fucking mind reader, now tell me what the hell you're on about before I call Trevor over here and I'm sure he won't hesitate to run you off my property" Kiana told him as she knew her brother would always take her side before his friends

"There's more than one camera" Antonio stated simply

"More than one? But Luca said - actually you know what, why the hell would I believe Luca? How many? How many more and where are they?" She asked

"Well that's exactly why I'm here today. Luca gave up and feels terrible for putting the cameras up and actually listened to you. He was going to keep them a secret but he couldn't do it anymore so he sent me here to come and collect them...there's obviously the one in your bedroom, one in your hallway, kitchen and living room oh and one in your office at work"

"My office at work! Antonio that is not only an invasion of my privacy but my patients, they do not wish to be-"
She seethed, growing angrier than before because now Luca had put her career in jeopardy if anyone saw that camera in her office, one of her patients could sue, she could lose her licence to be a therapist

"You cannot see who your patients are via the camera angle, it's just enough to show Luca when you're at your office and if you're okay when you're not at home and he wants to check on you" Antonio explained, even though Kiana looked like she didn't want to hear it as she stared at him, almost wishing that she could strangle him telepathically

Taking Kiana's silence as an answer, Antonio continued, "Now can you remove this chain off of your door so that I can remove the other cameras, as I have done with the one in your office earlier?" He asked, wanting to not disappoint Luca and also not wanting Kiana to be angry at him for a job he was given

"No" she answered

"No?" He questioned, confused as to her sudden change in heart

"No" she repeated, "yes, I want them gone, but if someone is going to remove them, then it will be him. Luca will have to face me and take them down himself, now go away and tell him that" Kiana explained as she heard Antonio grumbled a few curse words as she slammed the door in his face, double locking it before he got any ideas
