---Meeting

Danielle Leone

I ran to Luka's arms and he chuckled as he spun me around. I buried my head to his chest.

/"I miss you, little one./" He said as he put his hand on my head.

/"I miss you too and I can't believe that you're married./" I said and Luka chuckled.

/"It's a long story so.. let's get lunch together./" He said and I nodded. I got into his car and he drove to his all-time favorite restaurant.

/"I asked Dean to come but he's in London./"

/"Dean is a busy man, Danielle. Don't disturb him and bully him./" Luka said and I pouted.

/"Can I get Parker's number?/" I asked and Luka raised his eyebrows.

/"I don't have it./"

/"Where is he? Why is he disappearing?/" I asked curiously and Luka sipped his water.

/"I don't know where he is, you know him./"

/"What a leader.. he's supposed to gather us all not to just disappear./" I said annoyed and Luka chuckled.

/"You turn into a grumpy woman, Danielle./"

/"I'm just tired living in the US, all by myself./" I said as he stopped his car. I got out from the car and Luka handed the valet guy his key.

/"You're the one who wanted to be a racer, no one is forcing you./"

/"I know but still.. you all cut your connections with me./"

/"We all separated, Danielle. We have our own thing./" Luka said and they led us into the private room. I looked at the menu and order some food.

/"So.. where's your wife?/"

/"She's at home, why?/"

/"I want to see her because I doubt I will like her./" I said and Luka laughed.

/"You don't like our significant other as always./"

/"Of course, I don't trust them./" I said and Luka nodded.

/"I'm guessing you've been following Dean all over the place?/"

/"Is he really single? Or.. did he have a girlfriend before?/" I asked curiously and Luka shook his head.

/"He's pretty busy with work and I don't think he has the time to.. date./"

/"Good./"

/"Why? You still like him?/"

/"I always have him on the palm of my hands./" I said confidently and Luka nodded.

/"True./"

/"But like usual.. we only have.. you know casual sex./"

/"He has no interest in relationship so.. you better find someone else to settle down./" Luka said and I shook my head.

/"I don't mind having this.. friends with benefit kinda thing./"

/"Are you sure? I heard he's famous among the nurses. I know that his hospital has a lot of cute nurses too../" He said and I glared at him.

/"Funny, Luka. Funny.. really./"

/"I know right./" He said arrogantly.

/"Do you love your wife?/" I asked and he raised my eyebrows.

/"If I don't, I won't be marrying her right?/"

/"I know you, you're not the type to settle down too. What makes you suddenly want to have one woman in your life?/" I asked.

/"What makes you think I have one woman?/"

/"Disgusting./" I hissed and he laughed.

Dean Alessandro

/"I'm currently having lunch with her./" Luka said as I got into my car.

/"And?/"

/"She called everyone to meet up in Amsterdam in 3 days, do you know about this?/"

/"Of course./"

/"You're coming?/"

/"I have to, I don't think I have any other choices./" I sighed as I started the car.

/"Okay then, see you in 3 days./"

Danielle Leone

3 days later..

/"Lycan!/" I jumped into his arms and he spun me around.

/"I miss you, Elle!/" Lycan hugged me tightly.

/"That's rude./" I turned to Dante and gave him a hug too.

/"I'm glad that you're home now./" Dante said and I nodded.

/"I miss you guys a lot, it's been a long time since we hung out. Where's Matteo?/" I asked as I linked my arms back to Dean.

/"He will come a little late./" Luka said and I gestured for us to go inside. We all sat down on one table and I looked at them one by one.

/"Now, tell me.. where the hell is Parker?/" I asked curiously.

/"He left us./" Lycan said.

/"Why is that? Isn't he the leader?/" I hissed.

/"He wanted his own space./" I turned to see Matteo walking in and I squealed. Matteo opened his arms wide open and I hugged him.

/"There's our princess./" He said.

/"I miss you the most!/" I said and he cupped my face.

/"You do?/"

/"Yeah!/"

/"Glad to hear that!/" I held his hand and dragged him to sit down. I sat back on my chair and turned to Dean who doesn't say a word once we arrived.

/"Why are you so quiet?/"

/"Do you know that Dean has been abandoning us for the past years?/" Dante said and I raised my eyebrows.

/"Why?/"

/"I'm a doctor. To be exact, I'm a surgeon./" He said coldly as he looked straight to Dante.

/"Since we're all here, shouldn't we talk about.. ILLICIT?/" Lycan asked as he looked straight at me.

/"Of course, we should./"

/"Since Parker is not here, how about we have Lycan as our leader?/" Matteo suggested.

/"How about Dean?/" I suggested.

/"Nah.. a Leader should lead and not let the other members slip away./" Dante said.

/"What do you think Luka?/" Matteo asked Luka. I turned to Luka waiting for his answer.

/"Don't ask me./"

/"I'm glad that you're back, little one. You're indeed the glue to our team./" Lycan smirked and I nodded.

/"Of course, I love each every one of you. We should have done this years ago./"

/"I'm not joining./" I turned to Dean disbelief.

/"Why?/"

/"I'm busy, I don't have time for shits like this./" He said coldly as he looked at us one by one. I held his hand and smiled.

/"Come on, Dean. Let's do this, you know we've all been waiting for this day to come./" I begged and I cupped his face.

/"No, Danielle./" He hissed and I raised my eyebrows.

/"Ever since you left, Dean has been mean to us./" I turned to Dante.

/"Why?/"

/"You should ask him, he has new friends./"
