"For goodness sake, Piero?" he turns to Riccardo's father and his second in charge of the last thirty years

"He's right Lorenzo, he is the Don and he can do as he likes."

He huffs and turns beginning to stomp away. "Wait, I have one more announcement," I call to him and he stops looking back at me, crossing his arms over his chest.

"As of Monday, I will be moving to America to become part of the Cobras, where I will be working under my stunning fiance who will be taking over as leader. Together Alena and I as well as Franco and his girlfriend Layla will work side by side to make sure that things run as they always have in our alliance and get things back to where they need to be." I take a breath and look around the room once more "Enjoy your night." I nod to the DJ to start up the music once more.

"You okay?" Alena smiles up at me as everyone gets back to drinking and dancing

"I feel great, better then I've felt in my entire life."

"You did so well" Bex smiles and gives me a hug as she and Riccardo make their way over

"Don Franco, looking dapper tonight." Riccardo grins and pats Franco on the back

"And the dons wife." he grins at Layla

"I'm definitely not the dons wife, not yet anyway." she smiles up at Franco who wraps his arm around her.

"A word with all of you." Easton says before turning on his heel and making his way out the back once more.

We all follow and find Easton, Aubrey, Amara, and Nate all standing together waiting for us.

"I'm so proud of you, all of you." Aubrey says with a smile "What you did up there was really brave Dom and I'm so glad I'm going to have you as my son in law." she gives me a hug

"I agree, thank you for not breaking our daughter's heart and for choosing to do what is right for you, and not what's right for everyone else, that's how us Cobras always do things, you'll be a great addition to the team." Easton smirks

"As for you, don Franco." Amara smirk softly "I'm mad at your for taking my baby away forever, but I'm so glad she's found someone who makes her as happy as you do and thank you for giving me a grandbaby." she squeals and wraps her arms around them giggling happily

They pull back from the hug and Layla looks at Nate. "Dad?" she questions

"I never imagined my daughter would be the dons girl." he laughs softly "but as long as you treat her right, and give her and the baby all the love and support they need we'll never have an issue." he stops for a moment "But there is just one thing."

"Anything, name it" Franco speaks

"Please for the love of God marry my daughter, make it official."

"That I can do," Franco says with a grin

"Riccardo." Piero says as she makes his way outside

"Papa" Riccardo smiles back "Thank you for having our backs in there."

"You're welcome son, I'm proud of you, and I'll always stand by you no matter what." He smiles and looks towards Easton and goes to speak, but then turns to Alena and takes her hand. "As leader of the Cobras, I ask that you please take care of my son and Bexley and in return, I will look after Franco and Layla" he gives her an honest smile

"I'll look after them, I promise" Alena smiles and gives him a hug

"It was nice to see you again." he waves to Easton before heading back inside
