Valentina's POV:
We were now at Liam's place again the next day waiting for Ryan and Stacy.
We all left home yesterday and Ryan and Stacy asked us to give them one day's time to find out Reno's location.
"Where are they?", Liam sighs impatiently
"They should be here by now", Ethan exclaimed biting his nails.
"They'll be here any minute", Micheal said pacing here and there.
We heard a knock on the door.
"Ugh finally", Iris exhasperated and we ran outside to open the door.
Stacy and Ryan greeted us and we all gather around in the living room itself.
"So you find something?", I ask hopefully
"Of course yes", Stacy winked
"Ahh I love you guys", I jump happily and hug them.
Everyone chuckled and I get back to my place.
"Okay so we found out Reno's location. He's in this address", Ryan said passing us a paper.
We all read the address and nod.
"This guy is definitely in hiding but I wouldn't be surprised if the killer found him now because they all have always been in hiding because of their criminal records and they clearly can be found", Stacy said as a matter of fact
"Okay so we start keeping an eye on him to see if we find the killer", I nod shrugging
"Yeah I think we should start by today itself. There's a huge chance of the killer coming today", Micheal nods
"Why do you say so?", Ethan asked curiously
"Everyone's looking for Reno already and it's chaos after his friends died so the killer has to hurry up and kill his last target before the police find Reno and make it impossible for the killer to kill him", Micheal explained
"Yeah you're right", Liam nods.
"So we all go today?", Kai asked
"We all go today", we all nod

Alessandro's POV:
I'm now in my office working when I heard someone knock on my door.
"Come in", I sigh
The door opened but my head was still down in the file in front of me so I didn't see who came in.
"Busy?", I heard Sav
I smile and look up.
"Not for you", I wink.
She smiled and chuckled softly. She walked towards me and I turn my chair a bit so I can hug her. She hugged me tight and kissed my head while I put my arms around her waist tightly, pushing my face in her stomach and sighing hard.
"You look tired", Sav said pushing my hair back with her hands.
It was quite relaxing. It felt good.
"I'm fine. Don't worry", I smile still hiding my face in her stomach.
"Don't lie. I know you've been working for hours now so come on take a break", Sav said sternly.
I look up towards her confused.
"How do you know I've been working for hours now?", I ask surprised
"I have super powers", Sav gave me a toothy smile
"Ha ha", I laugh sarcastically
She hits me playfully making me chuckle.
"Seriously how?", I ask again
"Val texted me. She worries about you. I was talking to her in the morning when she told me you're as usual partying with your work", Sav chuckled softly
I smile at the concern my sister has for me. This is definitely her words.
My bambina..
"That girl seriously. She simply worries about me. She thinks I work 24 hours like a robot. I'm supposed to take care of her and here it's other way around", I said chuckling
"Oh shut up. When I came here even Xander told me that you've been working a lot. He told me to distract you as only I can do some things nobody else can to distract you", Sav laughs
That guy...urgh
I face palmed myself.
"Oh my god. My brothers are such shameless creatures I tell you", I shake my head laughing
"Hey, Xander worries about you too okay? You know him. He won't come and tell you on the face instead use other methods to help you", Sav smiled playing with my hair.
"Hmm yeah. I know. Tough brother of mine", I chuckled
Savannah nods smiling.
"He's right though. Only you can distract me in a way no one else can", I smirk pulling her suddenly on my lap
She makes a sound of surprise falling on my lap. I grin looking at her.
"That he's abso-fucking-lutely right about", Sav smirked proudly
I nod and kiss her on the cheek. She blushed immediately making me smile. I wanted to tease her more. I don't get many chances of making her turn red.
I kiss her jaw softly and then place a small kiss on the corner of her lips. She was actually turning red making me want to tease her more.
I kiss the place where the neck and shoulder meet, making her shiver. I smirk happily at knowing the kind of effect I have on her. I saw her close her eyes. I give soft kisses on her neck leading to her ear. I gave her a french kiss under her ear making her moan.
"Ales", She whispered
I hummed enjoying myself. I entangled my hand in her hair. Suddenly she pulled me by my collar and kissed me deeply. I almost moaned. I kiss her back with the same intensity.
She pulls my hair a bit making me groan. I lick her lips asking for entrance, she gave it to me. We fought for dominance but obviously I won. I rub my arms up and down her waist.
"I love you", Sav whispered smiling wide and looking in my eyes.
"I love you more", I whispered and kissed her forehead.
"I've only loved you, you know. I fell in love with you some years ago. I liked you since we were kids, but realised I loved you some years ago. It's always been only you Alessandro Costello", Sav chuckled kissing my nose
I hold her face in my hands and look at her beautiful face and mesmerising eyes.
"It's the same for me. Never felt anything like this for anyone else. I love you with all my heart Savannah. I never made a move before because you're my best friend's twin, but who knew he'll be the one to encourage us", I chuckled at the memory
Savannah laughed and nodded.
"I love Rafael for that", Sav grinned
"Me too. And also it seems fine seeing my bestfriend is dating my brother too", I snicker and shrug.
Sav laughed more. I look at her happily.
"But seriously I love you Savannah Diaz and it's always been you and will always be you in future as well", I smile and wink
Savannah looked so happy. She hugged me immediately. I kiss her cheek while hugging her.
God I love her so much!
I haven't told her or anyone yet but I want to make her mine soon. I know she's the one. She makes me happy. She knows me well. I want to change her last name.
"Looks like you distracted me well Savannah Diaz. I'm not so tired anymore", I smirk
"Yeah? I think I know some ways to make you tired if you want", She teased raising her eyebrows.
I groaned at her teasing because it was affecting a certain member of mine. I pull her towards me kissing her intensely. When we parted we both were heavily breathing.
"Watch what comes out of that mouth babe. I won't hesitate to take you right here on my desk", I smirk smugly
Savannah bites her lips and looks away hiding her blush. I laugh and pull her cheeks.
Suddenly there's a knock on the door making Savannah stand up from my lap, but I pulled her back immediately. She squirmed a bit giving me a glare but that only made me chuckle.
I pinch her butt making her stop and I have a tight hold on her now making her sit on my lap. She gives me deadly glare and I kiss her lips laughing.
"You both better not be doing what I think you're doing. I'm still young to be an uncle", Xander's voice came from other side of the door.
I heard a smack noise and an ow followed by it from outside.
I sigh harshly and face palmed myself. Savannah snickered.
"This boy, I swear I'll kick his ass so hard one day", I grumble
Savannah hit me playfully.
"Come in", I grunt making Savannah chuckle.
"We'll continue this later in my room when no one is disturbing us", I smirk whispering in her ear.
Savannah blushed so hard making me smirk.
The door opened and the twins entered.
Xander walked in like he owns the place and also smirking and wiggling his eyebrows at me and Sav. Xavier came in with a hand on his eyes but still smiling teasingly.
Xander stopped at my desk but as Xavier couldn't see, he walked right into my desk and winced. Savannah laughs. I shake my head amused.
"I told you not to put your hand on your eyes", Xander rolled his eyes smacking Xavier.
"Are they doing something I shouldn't watch?", Xavier whispered to Xander with his hand still in front of his eyes.
Whisper in his language.
"No and they can hear us whispering", Xander whispered back.
"Okay", Xavier whispered again and removed his hand giving me a cheeky smile.
I groaned and hit my face on the desk making Savannah laugh loudly
I gave Xavier a questioning look for his antics.
"What? I was trying to be decent and didn't want to walk in on my elder brother you know..doing stuffs", Xavier said nervously
I bite my lip controlling my laugh.
"Atleast you had the decency Xavier", I said glaring at Xander
"Ha I told you", Xavier playfully punches Xander and puffed his chest.
Xander waves him off rolling his eyes.
"Don't look at me like that Ales baby. You would only allow us to come in if you were in a decent position besides it's not like what you were doing is anything new right? I mean everyone's "made love" to others here", Xander grinned shamelessly
"God Xander. If you weren't my brother..", I trailed off shaking my head.
Savannah threw a small box that was on my desk at Xander, hitting him square on his face. But Xander still laughs.
"If I would have been alone I probably wouldn't have bothered even knocking you know. But there were innocent eyes over here with me so", Xander shrugged pointing at Xavier.
Savannah chuckled at Xavier's reaction. Xavier was glaring at Xander so hard but he looked only cute to me.
"Talk for yourself. I'm not innocent", Xavier scoffed and punched Xander on the shoulder.
Xander was going to argue but I stopped him with a look.
"Shut up both of you. What do you want?", I ask impatiently
"What do we want?", Xander asked Xavier confused.
Ahhh they're testing my patience!
"Permission!", Xavier smacked Xander reminding him.
"Oh yeah! You see our favourite brother Alessandro. We wanted to ask you something", Xander gave me a cheeky smile.
"Aha? You mean you need something from me?", I said with raised eyebrows
"Pffffttt no..you think we'll come to you when we need favours?", Xander nervously scoffed
I raise one eyebrow and give them a knowing look.
"Yeah we need a favor", Xavier said sheepishly
Xander gasped and hit him. Xavier rolled his eyes.
"He's our brother and a Don for god sake! Do you really think he can't see through us?", Xavier glared at Xander
Xander thought for a second and nodded. Me and Sav snickered amused.
"What do you want?", I ask them
"Uhh you see brother Matteo's birthday is coming up soon", Xander started nervously
I nod and ask him to continue.
"So we both thought to gift him something on his birthday", Xander continued.
"Oh you both figured out what you do on birthdays", Savannah snickers
The twins playfully glare at Savannah. Savannah sends them a flying kiss laughing.
"Anyway..we need a teeny tiny help from you", Xavier said cutely doing a teeny tiny gesture with his fingers.
"Let me guess. You both have planned to gift him something you know you won't get permission from Dad for and now you need me to help you by approving and then so if I say yes, you think you guys or I can conveniently convince Dad", I said in one breath
Those two were gawking at me like I'm some sort of alien.
"You were right. He sees right through us", Xander nods at Xavier
Xavier shrugs saying 'told ya'. I gave them a questioning look.
"Yeah", the twins admitting sheepishly in unison
"If you're sure Dad won't allow you. What makes you think, I will?", I ask with raised eyebrows
"Because we know you love us a loooot. I mean we're no little sister of yours but we're your cute little obedient brothers", Xavier grinned
"Obedient my ass", I scoff in reflex
Savannah chuckled but hit me playfully. The twins give me a pleading look.
"Fine. what are you planning to gift Matteo?", I ask exhausted
The twins get happy and excited immediately.
"We're planning to get him an alligator because you know he's afraid of one", Xander laughed like an evil witch.
"We'll wrap the alligator in the box and give it to him and when he opens it we'll record his most hilarious reaction", Xavier jumps excitedly.
A moment of silence for mine and Savannah's ears
Savannah stared at them in horror. I looked at them wondering what went wrong with their upbringing.
"And you wondered why Dad will not allow you to get this gift?", I ask smiling sarcastically to my stupid brothers
"Yeah I mean it's an alligator..of course Dad will not allow", Xander shrugged knowingly
"OBVIOUSLY YOU IDIOTS! Why will he allow?! Why would anyone allow that?!", I exclaimed waving my hands weirdly
Those two frowned at me.
"You know gifts are supposed to be happy and memorable and definitely not something one is terrified off", Savannah gave a tight smile.
"We are giving him something memorable. See, when he gets all freaked out seeing the alligator we'll record his reaction. Then when he looks at his own reaction we recorded, he'll be happy and enjoy it because it'll be funny and thank us for making his birthday so memorable", Xavier smiled proudly
"Yeah because there's no way he's gonna forget that day..so memorable", Xander smiled and shrugged
I take a deep breath, close my eyes and think of baby pandas. Huh.. they're cute.
Don't think of punching your younger brother..Don't think of punching your younger brothers..
I open my eyes and look at them.
"Yeah he won't forget that day for sure because.. YOU'RE GONNA GIVE OUR LITTLE BROTHER A FREAKING HEART ATTACK", I scream and smile sweetly at them controlling myself
Those two had the audacity to act sad and pout.
"That's not gonna work right now", I said giving them a pointed look.
"Xander. Xavier. Think of some really good gift for poor Matteo which does not include animals and consult Val if you need.. she'll help you", Savannah smiled softly
The twins huff and pout.
"There goes our plan to surprise Matteo and convince Dad", Xavier whines
"Pfffft you guys are no fun", Xander frowned
"Yeah and we prefer to be that way", I gave him a tight smile.
"Boring", Xavier muttered
"You both can think of something else to gift Matteo which does not involve animals", I said ignoring Xavier.
"Fine", Xavier huffs
"You know I'm still bummed about you not approving Ales. We were really excited", Xander pouts
Both of them turn and start walking out of my office dejectedly. I look at them and sigh hard.
Ahh why do I love them so much?
"Fine. Go eat, drink, watch movie. Do anything you want and it's my treat", I said rolling my eyes at their depressed figures.
I saw Sav giving me a fond smile. The twins turn and look at me smiling happily.
"I'm bummed too Ales", Xavier cleared his throat and looked at me expectantly
I sigh even hard.
"Fine. Dinner's on me. Order anything you like and we'll have a movie night today and you both choose the movie", I roll my eyes smiling a bit.
They never get to watch the movie they want to during movie nights as everyone opposes it.
"Our siblings?", Xander asked controlling his smile.
"I'll convince them", I sigh in defeat
One. Two. Three
"Yaaaaaaay! Yes yes yes!", Xavier yells happily
"Ahhh I love you ALES!", Xander screams excitedly and runs and hugs me tightly.
Xavier runs and hugs me from behind. I kiss both their heads and ruffled their hairs chuckling.
Then they said bye to me and Sav and ran outside the office muttering something about 'leaving before I change my mind'
I shake my head chuckling at their running figures.
"Aww Ales you're so sweet. You love them so much that you can't see them sad", Sav smiled and awed at me.
"Oh please! I did that to make them happy yes, but also because if not they'll annoy me all day for spoiling their mood", I lied rolling me eyes
"Yeah sure. Just admit it", Sav scoffed rolling her eyes
I sigh
"Fine. I can't see them sad. Also now that you mention it. I'm noticing all my younger brothers turning into Val..pouting and all whenever they want something. I think I've become a little soft past few months", I frowned
Savannah snickered and kissed me. I smile and kiss her back.
______________________________
Valentina's POV:
Me and my squad are now getting ready at Iris's place to go at Reno's hideout.
Me, Micheal and the rest of us told our parents that we're having a sleepover at Iris's place so they don't doubt us.
I strapped two knives in my leg just in case. I also had a gun. I walk to the living room and saw everyone there. Everyone was dressed black and black and loading their guns.
"Everyone ready?", I ask
They look up and nod.
"Yeah let's go", Micheal sighs.
We all leave Iris's house and get inside Micheal's and Liam's car. Me, Micheal, Ryan and Stacy in Micheal's car whereas Kai, Ethan, Iris and Liam in Liam's car.
Micheal starts the car and drove towards Reno's hideout. Liam's car was right behind us following our lead.
None of us spoke much on the way. Everyone's probably wondering who the killer is and what will they do if they find out something they aren't prepared for.
We soon reach the place and Micheal parks the car nearby.
"You guys ready?", Micheal asked softly
"I guess", Ryan sighs
Me and Stacy nod nervously. We four get out of the car and saw the other four coming out too.
"Ryan where exactly Reno is hidden?", Kai asked
"That hut like thing", Ryan pointed towards a direction.
We saw at some distance there was a hut like thing. It looked old and dingy.
"Hmm okay so where do we keep an eye on him from?", Ethan asked curiously
"We can divide ourselves in twos. Me and Michael, Kai and Ethan, Ryan and Stacy, Iris and Liam and cover this place from all the four directions", I suggest.
"Yeah that's a good plan. This way there's a low chance of killer escaping our sight", Iris nods.
"Fine let's go. We all have our ear piece anyway so we can stay connected", Liam said pointing at his ear piece
We all nod and walk towards different directions and cover the hut from all four sides.
Me and Micheal were hiding behind a tall bush watching the surroundings of the hut keenly.
"Let's hope it's not what we think it is", I sigh.
"Yeah first time in life I wouldn't mind being wrong about something", Micheal smiled sadly
I nod smiling.
We waited for 30 minutes and saw no one. Even Reno didn't leave his hut.
"You guys think the killer will come today?", Stacy asked from the ear piece.
"I think it will. The killer needs to finish his job as early as possible. It doesn't have much time before police finds Reno", Kai spoke
"Yeah and also if we can find Reno, I'm assuming the killer can too", Ryan said
We all agree and wait. After 15 more minutes I saw some movement at 20 metres from mine and Micheal's place. I point at the direction looking at Michael. He looks there.
"Guys I see some movement near Kai and Ethan's hiding place", I said in the ear piece
I saw some shadow there and wondered if this is the killer. The killer wore clothes like us only black and black which was helping with the camouflage.
"Yeah we see it too", Ethan spoke.
"This person is wearing some kind of hoodie which is covering his face", Iris grunted
"Remember we can't let the killer escape", Micheal said seriously.
I saw the person almost had almost reached the hut.
"Go", I said in the ear piece and we all run towards that killer.
The killer must have seen us because he ran fast towards the hut like thing.
We run behind him. I saw the killer opening the hut and I pulled him from behind by his jacket.
That person pushed me away grunting. I stumbled back but Micheal caught hold of that person.
The killer took out his gun and shot in the air.
Me, Michael, Kai and Ethan who were near him back down immediately.
The killer pointed the gun at us. I was about to take out my gun when the killer spoke.
"Don't even think about it", the killer said in a hoarse voice.
It's not Mady's voice but I won't believe till I see it's face.
"I have no plans of hurting you so leave", The killer spoke
"We also don't have plans of hurting you so put your gun away", Ethan spoke seriously
Suddenly I heard a loud noise. Like banging.
"GUYS! RENO'S ESCAPING", Iris yells.
We turn and see Iris and Liam running behind Reno who had now escaped from behind the hut.
He was probably around 35-39 yrs old but he ran really fast. He almost would have escaped but Stacy and Ryan suddenly appeared in front of him blocking his escape.
Reno let out a frustrated noise. Ryan and Liam get hold of him and pull him towards us. Reno was thrashing and shaking trying to escape but my friends had a tight grip on him.
From my peripheral vision I saw the killer pointing his gun at Reno. I immediately take a jump at the killer and try to disarm him.
The killer dodged and turned. I saw Micheal, Kai and Ethan pointing their guns at us but obviously not shooting as there are chances of me getting hurt by mistake.
The killer was dodging all my moves but not attacking. The killer then tackles me and we both fall down.
"Val careful", Stacy said worried
I aimed at removing the person's hoodie but the killer was really fast. I tried to swipe his feet off but the killer jumped from over my head doing a flip.
I turn and saw Micheal catching the killer once he landed. Kai came and helped Micheal. Both of them where holding one hand of his.
I sigh and stand up dusting my hands.
"Like I said leave or fucking stay away", the killer grunted
"Who are you?", Micheal asked curiously
"Not important", The killer grunted thrashing.
"Stop it", Kai growls holding him tight.
"It's important to me. Who are you? Why did you kill my friends and why do you want to kill me?", Reno spoke.
The killer gave out a humorless laugh.
"It's simple. I hate you...sorry correction despise you", The killer gritted with his face still hidden.
"That's clear really..but why?", Stacy asked curiously
"Something he and his friends did in the past", The killer gritted.
"Yeah? I've done a lot of things then and I don't regret anything so go ahead kill me", Reno scoffed
"Oh I will like I did your friends", The killer chuckled evilly.
Before any of us could do anything the killer did a back flip escaping Micheal and Kai and took out a knife from his back pocket and threw it at Reno's hand.
Liam and Ryan instinctively let go of Reno and he fell down but alive. Iris and Stacy gasp. Kai, Ethan and Micheal look at the scene in shock.
I immediately take the chance and pull the killer's hood down. The killer looks up and all of us gasp loudly.
"Mady.. impossible", I whisper with my heart beating loudly.
Mady turned to look at me.
"Come on Val don't act like you guys didn't think it was me", Mady gave me a lazy smile
Before I or others could reply Mady picked up her gun from the ground and aimed it at Reno who was getting up from the ground after pulling out the knife from his hand.
Mady pulled trigger to five bullets right in Reno's chest without hesitation.
