164- This Ends Now

**Third Person**

Alex… where are you? cries Isabella’s mind. Her eyes silently scanning over the vast sea of guards. Slight movement soon catching her attention as she looks out near the tree line.

Several men begin making themselves known to her. All of them clad in black from head to toe as they quickly move to hide among the trees. Guards who belonged to Antonio or his brothers soon dropping like flies.

Isabella quick to avert her gaze even as Antonio and his brothers continued giving grand speeches about victory and how they finally conquered Lucus and his brothers. Her eyes now catching subtle movement within the windows of all the parked cars.

Their men. Alex’s men now standing on rooftop. Isabella mentally counting 15 scopes if not more now hiding among them. Antonio’s men all surrounded. Isabella now more at ease at knowing that Alex was close.

Idiots… Don’t they know anything? Scoffs Isabella’s mind. Isabella quick at remembering all of her training. In fact, it was basic security 101. Don’t leave yourself wide open to an attack by all cost. Something Antonio and his brother’s obviously forgotten.

Angelo silently waving to one of their men to open a car door for them. Antonio too busy with his speech to notice. Isabella now panicking when reality began to set in. These men were about to leave with her if she didn’t act soon. Bile soon rising at the thought of what she had to do.

Quick to turn, does Isabella move to look at Angelo, Vincent and Lucia. Antonio just finishing with his speech when Isabella moved to kiss Angelo. Her lips now locking with his as Vincent and Lucia both watch silently.

Angelo surprised by the kiss yet not caring as they both continue a little more. Angelo soon pulling her closer to him as he moves to seek entrance into her warm mouth, a move in which she allows if it meant keeping his focus on her.

Isabella secretly raising her hand into a fist without anyone seeing. A part of her knowing that Alex would see it and know what to do. A silent command that her men had easily taught her. A command that meant shoot.

Alex’s Omega team soon arriving through the tunnels they had taken. The team all arriving within 10 mins from when they left. 5 men now heading for the first floor of the house while 2 men went towards the second floor. Anyone remaining all headed for the roof. A roof in which they found 4 armed men.

The Omega team quick to handle them by slicing their throats. Their stealth a win-win as they all move to position themselves along the roof. Each of them surprised that the enemy hadn’t bothered checking their surroundings. Yet, Isabella was quick to notice and acted on impulse.

The men all quick to report back to Alex via their comms. “Boss. The Queen has noticed. Repeat, the Queen has seen us and knows where here.” Alex quick to respond back. “Perfect. Keep all eyes on the prize. Wait for her signal. Show no mercy to those who harm her.”

With orders given, Alex moves for the foyer. His eyes soon spotting two guards who were currently talking mindlessly with one another in Russian. Neither of them paying any attention to their surroundings as Alex moves to pull out his hunting knives. Alex quick to approach without either of them knowing.

Meanwhile, outside. Those who were now stationed around the tree line and those closest to the house all waited for Isabella’s signal. A signal they didn’t have to wait long for.

Isabella quick in her command. Their men now taking action as they effortlessly shoot and kill over 30 men instantly. Their bodies hitting the ground in pools of their own blood. Those remaining now abandoning their posts in order to seek shelter behind parked cars, while those who didn’t or failed to move all died by the snipers. Including those who were standing next to Lucus, Grant and Tony.

Armored vehicles along with huge tanks soon headed in the direction of the house and to where those who hid behind the cars all meet a timely end. Their bodies painting beautiful pictures along the ground as they all take bullets from loaded machine guns.

Antonio taken aback as Vincent and Lucia each try to counter the attack. Angelo now frantic at what to do as Isabella attempts to grab his gun. Angelo much faster than her as he moves to snatch it back. His hand quick at grabbing her neck before squeezing. His gun now pressed to her head as he along with Antonio, Vincent and Lucia all move to back away.

Each trying to flee while using one of the few remaining cars. The guards who were all captured and waiting to be slaughtered now free as they move to help out. A few of them moving to help Lucus, Grant and Tony while handing each of them a loaded gun.

Their guns raised as they each turn their focus over to Antonio and his brothers. Angelo still holding Isabella like that of a shield. Alex slowly moving to approach them while twirling his knives. Knives that were coated in blood as he carefully descends the stairs.

“STOP! I swear to all that is holy that if any of you dare take another step towards us then I won’t hesitate to blow her fucking brains out” cries Angelo. His rage rising. Each of them knowing that they were completely surrounded.

“Then surrender Angelo. You and your brothers each know your done for. Finished. So why not take your punishment like a true man. Let Isabella go and maybe just maybe I’ll be merciful on each of you” replies Lucus, his eyes still locked on them.

“Fuck you D’Amico. Isabella’s ours” yells Angelo. “Has been since the day she was born.”

“Exactly. She’s ours, all ours and we’re leaving this fucking place along with her. Then we’re going to kill that abomination growing within her before the 5 of us live happily ever after” replies Vincent.

Alex surprised by the news of a baby now growing within Isabella as he moves to see her little pudgy belly. His heart swelling in sheer joy along with anger. His hands soon gripping his knives in rage.

“STOP!” cries Isabella, her voice full of anger and annoyance. “Just stop. I’ll never be yours. Any of yours.” Then, within seconds of saying those words does Isabella move to bite into Angelo’s hand. Her teeth quick to sink beneath flesh as Angelo hollers in pain. His hold over her slipping, giving Isabella the chance she needed to drop like a sack of potatoes.

Alex quick to throw his knife as it moves to impale him right between the eyes. Lucus, Grant and Tony all moving to shoot Vincent, Lucia and Antonio. Bullets soaring through each of them as their bodies danced like puppets on a string.

Isabella quick to roll away from danger as her eyes catch the grueling sight. The sound of guns eventually stopping once everyone was positive that each of them were now dead. Isabella sighing as she moves to mutter “assholes” and “hell.”

Lucus quick to drop his now empty gun to the ground before running for his wife. Lucus quick to scoop her into his arms as Isabella moves to straddle him like a cute baby koala. Their mouths clashing with one another as they continue to kiss. Grant, Tony and Alex each moving to join the fun as they each take turns holding and kissing their Queen. Their wife.

Connor from Alex’s Omega team soon moving towards the corpses of Antonio, Vincent, Lucia and Angelo along with Conrad, Devan and Cody as they slowly began dismembering them. Not wanting to chance them coming back for a second time if they could help it.

Lucus along with his brothers all within their own tiny bubble as 30 of their men all move to inspect the house. Alex breaking the silence by asking the one question he so desperately wanted to ask.

“You’re Pregnant? Like truly Pregnant?”

Isabella now trying to smile as she moves to answer Alex in return.

“Yes… at least… I think I am according to the home pregnancy test I took.”

Not one to concern himself with the what ifs, does Alex move to kiss her yet again. A moan rising between each of them as they each take turns claiming her mouth once more. Tears of joy beginning to rise as she attempts to blink them away. Her body finally going into shock as she instantly collapses within Lucus’s arms. Her eyes rolling into the back of her head as the darkness moves to claim her.

Alex quick to grab her before rushing for the medical wing of the house. Lucus, Grant and Tony steadily bringing up the rear despite their own pain. Isabella more important to either of them than anything else, including their own health.

The on-call doctor now rushing to greet them as Alex moves to hand her over. Nurses and other staff members all quick to help Tony, Lucus and Grant. Tony having collapsed upon the floor when reaching the hospital due to his lungs filling up with blood. The blood nearly drowning him while Lucus and Grant both sustained several broken bones and a few torn ligaments and a severe concussion to each of their heads from all the intense beatings they had received from Antonio and his men, including his brothers. The nurses moving to give them lots of pain meds before tending to each of them directly.

Alex the only one left as he moves to wait on news of Isabella and their child.
