Hi Bree

"Luciano, I told you to give Stella some time didn't I," said Skylar as she called him.

"I can't, I've waited for 2 months. If you don't have anything better to say then don't bother calling us" reply Luciano as he toasts the phone back to Lucian.

"Sorry baby, my brother just-" said Lucian but was cut by Skylar who said, "Put the phone on the loudspeaker".

"Done, you're on a loudspeaker," said Lucian as he holds the phone in between him and Luciano who was looking at him with a raised eyebrow.

"To the both of you, I just want to say, stupid. You never want to listen to me. Open your email Lucian and show your brother what I've sent to you" said Skylar.

Lucian then quickly walk over to the table, grab it and open his laptop before he logs into his email and opens it.

'ATT: WATCH THIS, YOU IDIOTS!'

"Open it and let your brother see it," said Skylar as she was still on the line.

"Here," said Lucian as he clicks the email, open the attachments then read it quickly before he hands it over to Luciano.

"The Romanov clan turn to ashes?" said Luciano as he read the headlights of the Russian news.

"Now you see, why I keep on saying to give her time. She's this type of woman and you should really listen to me before going there blindly and judging from the time you depart, I guess you already landed huh. Anyway, I just want to tell you that, that news was out to the public 2 hours after your depart so again judging by that time that the news was out to the public I bet she's long gone. Your trip to Russia is a waste" said Skylar as she hangs up the call after her little rant.

Luciano was focusing on reading the news article that has been translated to English when Lucian joins him to read the same article.

"Fuck me frati (brother), sister-in-law did this?" asked Lucian as he pointed at the news article together with the pictures of the burned-down mansion then look at Lucino who was taking a deep breath.

"She's literally, don't judge a book by its cover type of woman" add Lucian quickly before he presses the play button on the other link that was sent together with the article.

The video then plays and appear a woman talking in Russian regarding what had happened to the mansion and who's mansion is it while reporting her reports.

"Let's ask Stella herself what is this," said Luciano as he closes the laptop and toast Lucian.

Meanwhile back to Stella who reaches Sicily after almost 11 hours of flight duration without stopping from Moscow. It was 5 in the morning as she reaches Sicily but before she meets her son she directly heads over to the nearby hotel, freshens up, heads down for breakfast then check out from the hotel.

By 6.30 Stella was out of the hotel and head over to The Maranzano mansion with a thumping and nervous heart as she goes back home.

"Don-donna?" asked the security guard who was stunned and shocked at Stella.

Stella was smiling at him as she walks over to the guardhouse while greeting the young security guard.

"Boy, how do you recognise me? I never see you around. Are you new?" asked Stella in a friendly tone as she smiles at him.

"Ye-yes Donna, I'm new" reply the boy kindly while he helps Stella with her backpack.

"Donna"

"Welcome donna"

"Donna? I thought Bree is the donna?"

"Welcome Donna"

A series of greetings, confusion and some new faces coming from the clan members who were confused, happily and elected that Stella was home.

"I'm so glad that you're back. Donna, you need to spank that slut who thinks she own everything" said the boy as he pouts and complains to her.

"Who dares to bully my cute boy. Don't worry, I'll put her in her place okay" said Stella kindly as the boy sent her to the front door before he waves his hand and walks off.

*Ding Dong* *Ding Dong*

"Coming~," said a feminine voice coming from the inside of the house as she opens the door widely and look at Stella up and down.

Stella then walks inside the mansion without utter a single words as she walks over to the living room while the lady follows her.

"Excuse me, who are you? Why do you walk in without greet me?" asked Bree in her annoyed tone.

"Hey, bitch, did you hear me? Who the fuck are you?" asked Bree again as she follows Stella closely.

"Hey, I'm talking to you," said Bree again as she holds onto Stella's right arm.

"Don't fucking touch me" answer Stella in a low hard tone which makes Bree loosen her grip.

"Then answer me, who are you? Why walk into someone's house without permission?" asked Bree angrily.

"Who gives you the permission to be here at this hour?" asked Stella as she turns to look at Bree who blinks a couple of times.

"I-I-I, I'm the donna. I live here" said Bree brazenly.

Stella looks at Bree unimpressed as she rolls her eyes and shakes her heads before she head over to the kitchen area to set things up for her son.

"Hey!" said Bree as she follows Stella to the kitchen area.

"Bree, keep your voice down, will you. Why do you need to be so loud?" asked another maid who walk over to the kitchen area.

"Oh, donna. Sorry for not recognize you" said the maid as she walks over to Stella who was busy washing the fruits.

"Don't worry about it, you can go ahead and get some rest," said Stella who still ignore Bree and continue to wash the fruits.

"Donna? Pfftt.. what a joke. You? Donna? Seriously. And here I was thinking that you're some kind of maid who didn't know English" said Bree in a mocking manner.

The maid who was standing there was shocked, then she quickly said, "Bree, you-", but her sentence was cut by Stella who remains calm while taking out flour and egg for making pancakes batter.

"Don't worry about her, I will talk to her. You can go get some extra sleep, I bet you're tired from people like this insignificant person" said Stella in calm yet harsh words which earns a snort from the maid, smiling and walk out from the kitchen.

"Insignificant?! Bitch, please! I was the one who help don and his son while you were fucking other bastards out there and left them" said Bree arrogantly.

Stella was pissed by her words but she remains calm as she looks at her directly, "You can mess with me but if you put your name together with my son and husband again. I. Will. End. You" said Stella in a low voice as she moves inches forward to Bree who subconsciously walk backwards.

"Now if you could be a useful person, get the fuck out from my house," said Stella as she finished putting the ingredient on top of the counter.

Bree then quickly walk over to the front door, walk out and close them loudly which makes Stella pinch her nose bridge and exhale out loudly at the whole situation.

"What a kid" murmur Stella.

'Talking about kid, I hope my own son is awake' said Stella to herself as she walks upstairs to the second floor over to Luciano's room.

Upon reaching Luciano's room, Stella looks at the empty room and feel weird so she walks over to the other room which is the guest room there too empty then she walks over to Lucian's room and found both Skylar and Marius sleeping peacefully.

Marius was sleeping face down on his own cradle while Skylar was snuggle in the middle of the room while surrounded by pillows.

"Both are like kids" murmur Stella lowly while smile at them as she walks over to Marius first.

"Don't move," said Skylar as she pointed the gun towards Stella who was standing straight while holding her hands up.

"Good morning to you too Sky" greet Stella while smiling at her.

"Ste-Stella?!" stutter Skylar a little as she was in shock to look at Stella who was standing in front of her while she slowly lows her guns.

"Skylar Cooper Salvatore," said Stella in a joking manner.

"You stupid woman, stupid, stupid," said Skylar as she quickly out from the bed, hug her sister and softly punch her arm.

"Hey, hey. What's wrong Sky?" asked Stella in a worried tone as she hugs Skylar.

"I miss you and I was worry. Worry because you didn't even report back to us for 2 months plus Lia?" asked Skylar as she pulls Stella to seat on the bed.

"I couldn't, I was being watched 24/7. All I can do is wait for the right time to strike and I bet you did get the news right?" asked Stella as she looks at Skylar who went rigid.

"What's wrong sissy?" asked Stella as she looks at Skylar who was avoiding her eyes.

"I-I, I kinda tell Luciano and Lucian about the news" answer Skylar in a small voice,

"Then?" asked Stella.

Before Skylar could answer, Marius was up with a cry as he was being cranky and moody for the whole month.

"He's being moody and cranky because he misses you, that's why he woke up crying" explain Skylar, answer Stella unvoiced question.

"Shh-shh, mummy here baby boy," said Stella as she picks him up and in an instant, Marius stop crying and start hugging Stella tightly while put his face on her neck, shoulder and her chest to sniff his mother's smell.
