You were the sunshine of Nico's life. A man who's the most feared criminal in the world is reduced to a puppy for you. But this wasn't always the case. This man had killed your father who was the lead officer in hunting him down. For the sake of work, your father never mentioned on having you as his only family, for your safety. And when Nico found out about this, he gathered his men to take information on you. When he got to know of your traumatic history and now being 17 and him having unknowingly killed your only family - your father, he ordered you to be under his care in his mansion. Till then he didn't even look your way for 3 years but made sure you had the best facilitate to take care of you. The mansion was large, you could lose yourself here. When you turned 21, that's when he decided to check on you again, and when you turned 22 he married you. You suffered from insomnia which came with PTSD as well as the constant reminder that you married a criminal who killed your father a few years back, was highly wanted and the large mansion could hide those who threaten to hold you hostage just to get to him, or maybe that this same man would lose his mind one day and kill you as you slept.Nico swore and reassured you every day and night that he'd never raise his voice or hand at you, that he was your husband now and he'd protect you, a silent promise to your dead father he killed.

After hours of crippling anxiety and PTSD episodes, Nico had successfully managed to put you to sleep tonight. You hadn't slept in 2 days and even if you did you were a very light sleeper. He quietly got up and shut the door of your shared bedroom behind him and turned to face the dark hallway.

"Take this outside shall we? My wife's sleeping." He spoke into the darkness. He had already sensed intruders or policemen surrounding him inside his damn house in this very hallway. He wasn't just the most feared criminal for no reason afterall.

The faint muffles of guns being lowered were heard in the darkness.
