Disclaimer I own nothing 50. An I'm so happy you guys love this story as much as I do writing it. I have updated my Pinterest page. My username is moonyblue0818. Please stay safe everyone. Just a reminder that unlike the original story, Theo is Carrick's father not Grace's in my story.
Everyone in that room looked opened mouth, at Theo. After what seemed like forever Carrick spoke.
You know who is doing all this shit, Dad.
Yes I Unfortunately do. The Puppet Master is my twin brother Giovanni.
If everyone in that room was not shocked before, they sure were now.
Granddad what are you talking about, you are an only child.
With a heavy sigh, Carrick spoke to his oldest boy.
He is not lying son. Now I don't remember him very well but Uncle Giovanni was no good at all. He should have been head of our family a long time ago. But your Great Granddad Bruno forbid him from becoming head of our family. He was an evil bastard. An his views on running our family, would have ruined the family. But there is something I don't under stand Dad. You told me when I was little he died.
I know Carrick, I told you that because your Granddad told me he died. But it has to be him. No one else would know about the way we communicated before he became a bastard. Plus a body never turned up.
Everyone in that room let the information sink in. After a few minutes Christian spoke to his Granddad.
Granddad, why did you never tell us? I asked you if twins ran in our family, after my twins were born. An you told me no. Why did you lie to me? Its not like it would have matter much, if you thought he was dead.
Christian, I know you were to young to remember your Great Granddad Bruno. He died not long after you were born. But when you were born, he said he never wanted you to know about my brother. My father was a very proud man Christian and he was deeply ashamed of how his oldest boy turned out. An he did not want you to know how he failed. He asked me keep to this secret and I could not say no.
Everyone in that room took a few minutes to let Granddad Theo's words sink in. Then Christian's underboss spoke.
Great Granddad, I don't understand. Your Grandmother was head of our family. Why would he have an issue with a woman boss now?
With very sad eyes, Theo looked at his Great Granddaughter.
I wish I knew what happened, that lead my brother in to becoming an evil bastard my sweet Daniella.. Or were he got his ludicrous ideas on women in the family business, or his views on how our family should have be run. What ever it was, happened around our 13th birthday. He started to push away from me, the more he saw that my views were the same as our old man.
With that the family got to work figuring out where Giovanni may possibly be. Theo also said, that even if they had to keep him locked up for a bit after they get Giovanni , he wanted Daniella to deal with him after his Great Great Grandchild is born. Because Giovanni needed to see what a Grey woman is trully capable of. Daniella told her Great Granddad that she would not let him down. Theo kissed her head and said I know you will not let me down my sweet.
The weeks were just flying by. Daniella was sitting in the living room, in her and CJ's apartment. She could not believe she was already 20 weeks along. She was so happy, but at the very same time so pissed. This should be one of the most happiest times in her life. But she can't get her mind off the fact that a true blood family member wanted to hurt their family so much. Its been 10 weeks and heard nothing from her Great Granddad's twin. She could not bring herself to even think about this asshole as an Uncle. Three times, they tried to use Ginni for a trap, but nothing. It would seem he is planning something big.
CJ walked in to the living room, to find his girl staring in to space. She has been doing that a lot lately. He is hoping todays party will get her mind off all this mess.
Princess are you almost ready?
Daniella did not answer him. So CJ walked over and kissed her nose and that got her attention.
What did you say CJ?
I asked if you were ready to go Princess, but you seemed a million miles away.
Sorry Amore (Translated Love), I really can't wait to find out what we are having, but I just can't stop thinking about that Bastard.
CJ pulled his Princess, as close as he could with out squishing his baby girl or baby boy. He really can not wait to find out what his Princess is carrying. He pulled back a little and kissed her forehead. Then he looked in to her eyes and spoke.
Remember, besides finding out about the gender of our baby, we will also be revealing our baby's name.
A few weeks back CJ and Daniella decided that besides the surprice of the gender of their baby they would reveal their baby's name. They chose a name for if Daniella is carrying a boy or a girl. Either way the names would be a big surprise. CJ and Daniela even got Ellis to make some special gifts to reveal their baby's name. Unfortunately he would miss the party, because he was in Vegas.
Daniella got a huge smile on her face. After CJ spoke, them kissed him like her life depended on it.
Let's go CJ, I want to know what we having a Little Prince or Little Princess.
With that Daniella and CJ headed to Bellevue. They pulled up in front of Belveve, to find a banner that said Prince or Princess. They parents were waiting for them, with great big hugs. After the hugs were exchanged , they walked in to a party of their family and friends. The house all decked out in baby blues, royal blues and pinks. An the Prince and Princess theme all around the house. On a table in the front hall with a poster that said place your bets. They were doing a 50/50 split on when baby grey will be born. Interesting enough Christian was the only one that said the baby will be born on his and Daniella's birthday. Each bet coasts $50 . The winner gets half the money and the other half goes to start the college fund. Before they went into the main room, Daniella wrote her bet right below her Dad's name on June 18th.
There was all so pins that said team Princess or Prince. Grace had made special baby blue and baby pink pins, that said Mommy to be and Daddy to be for CJ and Daniella. Along with the Great Grandparents, Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles. They walked into the living room to find all the ones that mean the most to them in the world, from the US and Italy. As soon as Little Sophie saw them, she ran in to her Godfathers arms. CJ kissed her forehead before he spoke to her
How are you doing Little P?
I'm great Uncle CJ, I can't wait to find out what you and DiDi are having.
Me to Little P, Me to.
Not two minutes after they entered the living room, Daniella spotted the table full of deserts from Marco's . She went over to fill a plate. Ana and the rest of the ladies planned a few games for the adults and a Pacifier hunt for the little kids. After all this maybe a gender reveal party, but it was part baby shower. Grace had Carrick and Mac hide over 150 pacifiers around the house. All the kids would get a prize of some sort. But the one that finds the most will be taken to the toy store to get any toy they wanted.
CJ and Daniella made their rounds around the room, talking to family and friends. CJ was talking with his Little brother as Daniella was talking to her Uncle Frankie.
How's Momma bear doing?
That made Daniella giggle. Out of all of her relatives in Italy, besides her Granddad Mac, she is the closest with her Uncle Frankie.
I'm really good Uncle Frankie.
Daniella said with a small smile. Witch made Frankie look at her with a raised eyebrow.
Do you want to try that again Danny?
That made Daniella roll her eyes. Of course he could tell she was lying.
Uncle Frankie you obviously, know me better then I think. What do you think is up with me.
That made Frankie chuckle a little bit, there is the cheeky niece he loves so very much.
God I love that cheekiness of yours Little Princess.
That made Daniella smile.
Well seeing as you are pretty much your fathers clone. I would say you can't get your mind off of your Great Granddad's brother.
An you would be right Uncle Frankie.
Well do your best, please and try and enjoy yourself. If anyone has earned a day of fun it is you Little Princess.
I will do my very best Uncle, I promise.
Frankie kissed her forehead. An with that Frankie left his niece to find his brother MJ. After all Ana and the rest of the ladies will kill them, if they mess up their part this evening. As all the guests were talking Grace and the Ladies were getting everything needed for the first game. Unknown to them a few blocks away a group of men under the control of Giovanni Grey were preparing to strike the Grove at 8 that night. It was 5 so their had 3 hours to prepare. Grace talked to the room as Ana and Sophia handed out some papers.
All right everyone the first game of the evening will begin now. Its called would she rather. Now we find out who truly knows the Mommy to be. On the papers you will choose what you think Daniela would prefer. You have ten minutes. Daniella will make her choices. An after the ten minutes, I will read the answers.

An to no ones surprise CJ and Christian got every answer correct. Even Ana and Sophia got a couple wrong. The Ladies got 10 mystery prizes. They would choice a lady and a gentleman as winners for each game. An with Grace's suggestion they got a couple extra prizes in case of ties. CJ got a certificate for a new gun and Christian got a certificate for a personalized 5 liter whiskey barrel. Grace and Ana tied for the Ladies . Ana got a certificate for a manicure spa package. An Grace got a weekend stay at Fairmont Olympic, with candle light dinners and massages. Christian, Jason and Elliot cringed when they saw, the look of pure lust on their fathers face as he was looking at their Mother as she read out loud what her prize was. Witch made their wifes laugh.
Then it was time to open a few gifts. Seeing as MJ and Frankie are the only ones that know what Daniella is carrying, everyone got them gender neutral gifts. They got a car seat, stroller and wagon from CJ's parents. Hannah got them a baby carrier, highchair and baby swing. CJ's close friend James gave them a $3000 gift card. They will open more gifts after the next game. This game was the most popular game at Ana and Christian's baby shower for Daniella.
A few blocks away, the group of 15 men under the control of Giovanni Grey were triple checking that all was ready. They had an hour in a half left before they hit the Grove. The man in charge was George Doyle, he is Giovanni's 3rd in command. He knows every part of Giovanni's plan to take over the Grey family. After all Tomas Grey, Giovanni's son and 2nd in command is his best friend. George stood up in the tail gate of his pickup truck to talk to the men.
Listen up, we strike in an hour in a half. Giovanni wants this to go like a well oiled machine. This has to go perfect. This is a very important step in Giovanni and Tomas's plan to take back, what should have always been theirs. Tomas will take his place as head of the Grey family not a fucking bitch.
Back at Bellevue, Ana and Sophia were setting up for the next game. They were going to play the baby changing game. Ana would announce this game.
Hi everyone, I hope everyone is having fun. The next game was a huge hit at the baby shower Christian and my Parents and Grandparents threw for us, when I was pregnant with Daniella. We will see who is the fastest man and woman to change a baby diaper blindfolded. Our raining champions are Daniella's Gigi and Granddad Carrick.
Grace and Carrick were holding hands, so when Ana said that they raised their conjoined hands up like a boxer after they won a match. An everyone clapped for them. They was 9 women and 12 men playing. When everyone was set Ana said……
3, 2, 1 Go
This time two of the oldest ones, in the room Lucca and Sofia won. Lucca got a new gun cleaning kit and Sofia won a candle light dinner, cooked by Bobby flay. Bobby had become close with the Greys after he cooked for Grace and Carrick the last time. Grace was teasing Carrick that she should swap prizes with Sofia. Knowing full well that Carrick had plans already for that weekend. Lucca and Sophia sat out the 2nd round. The 2nd round went to Ana and Christian. Then just as the women thought the men turned it in to a contest of there own. One round turned in to 6, having Daniella and the rest of the women in fits of giggles. CJ was very proud of himself, he won 2 out of the 6 rounds against guys that have been Dads for years.
CJ and Daniella opened the rest of their gifts after the baby changing game was over. Christian and Ana went all out for their first Grandbaby. They got everything needed for the nursery. From the changing table and dresser, to the crib. They got their Grandbaby the best Crib out there. An oxford Baby Emerson 4 in 1 convertible crib in dove Grey. It goes from crib to toddler bed, to a kiddie bed , to adult sized bed. An Great Granddad Theo handed down the Grey family cradle. Every born Grey for the last 100 years slept in the cradle at one time or another. Even when babies were born around the same time, it was shared. After all it was part of their family history. Ginny Ruth Grey's father made it himself. It was all wood and rocked back and forth and not side to side, like most cradles.
It was just after 6 and it was time for dinner. An Italian feast was laid out. An like every party that Grace and her girls cook for, there was no food left. After everything was cleaned up, it was finally time to find out the gender of baby Sawyer-Grey. MJ and Frankie were just triple checking that it was set. They did not want anything to go wrong.
MJ and Frankie walked into the middle of the living and got everyone's attention. Being the oldest MJ spoke first.
A few weeks ago our baby sister called us up, to ask a huge favor.
MJ and Frankie smiled at Ana.
An what ever baby sister wants, baby sister gets right Frankie?
That made Ana giggle. Because it was true all her brothers here and Italy spoiled her.
Right MJ, Ana gave us the great honor, to be the ones to reveal the gender of our future great niece or nephew.
An the time has finally come to reveal the secret of the newest member of our family. If you all will follow Frankie and I to the back porch please.
Everyone walked on to the back porch. Carrick had gotten all the kids. There were so many CPOs surrounding the back, you would think the Queen of England was visiting. They were not taking any chances with the life's of two Princesses. There was a special target display for the Gender reveal about 75 yards away from the house
There were two special target balloons. When shot, confetti blue or pink will come out. Depending on the gender of the baby. The sign read above the two balloons.
Now Its Time !!!
What will Baby Be?
A Prince or A Princess
An below the balloons read.
Shoot the Balloons
Mommy and Daddy
So we can all see !!!
This time Frankie took the lead. Walked in front of the crowd of family and friends to speak.
We decided the reveal should be done in a way that reflects Daniella and CJ. Now if CJ and Daniella will please step forward and pull the guns we know you are carrying. They will shoot the balloons and either blue or pink confetti will come out based on the gender of their baby.
That made Daniella giggle. Of course her Uncle's would know she was carrying a gun, even in a dress. CJ pulled his gun from his shoulder holster as his fiancé pulled her gun from her thigh holster. They walked forward a little bit aimed, turned and kissed as they fired their guns. Blue confetti came from the balloons. Everyone was so excited. Christian was the last to congratulate his kids on their son. He pulled his mini me close and whispered something in her ear that he would have said, even if she was carrying a Little Princess.
Everyone is so screwed, if he turns out to be just like us.
Witch made Daniella giggle. They all headed back inside and before they started the last game Daniella and CJ wanted to tell everyone else the other surprise. CJ grabbed one of the boxes he hid in the front closet just after they arrived. Daniella spoke as he handed out the blue envelopes in the box. An asking everyone not to open them just yet.
CJ and I decided that besides the gender of our baby, we would also reveal our baby's name. So along with our babies newest pictures we had Ellis make up cards with the babies name we were having a boy or girl. So if you please open your cards to find baby Sawyer-Grey's name.
The room was silent, as everyone in the room opened the cards. It was pure shock as everyone read the name on the card. It was Elliot that broke the silence first.
O No there is gonna be three Christians in the family.
He made it sound as if it was the worst thing ever to happen. That made everyone laugh. Everyone expressed their excitement about meeting Christian the third, soon. After all Daniella only has 20 weeks left. Then they all started to scatter about, as Sofia got the last game set up. An the kids went off to play some more. Everyone but Christian, he was kinda off to the side just starring at his baby girl. Daniella kissed CJ's cheek and walked over to her Dad.
Are you ok with us naming him after you Daddy? After all you are CJ and my hero.
He pulled his Daughter into his arms for a hug before he spoke.
I'm honored baby girl. An I can't wait to meet my namesake.
A few blocks away George Doyle and his men were preparing to make their way to the Grove. They will be moving in 45 minutes time, down the street from the Grove. Sophia handed out one last paper to everyone. This game was called Mommy or Daddy.

All right everyone the last game of the night. Its called Mommy or Daddy. You have to determine if the answer to the question will be CJ or Daniella. The lady that matches the most of Daniella's wins. As with CJ and the men. Please take your time and think the answer through. You have 20 minutes.
Everyone took their time to answer the questions. Some of the answers were very obvious and others not. After that they took the next half hour or so an went question by question with Daniella and CJ. Some of the answers caused a lot of laughing. By the time they finished that game and awarded the last of the prizes it was 7:45 at night. It was cake time. Of course it was made at Marcos. MJ and Frankie told the gender of the baby to Andrea. An Andrea swore that she would keep the secret of the gender of the baby. Daniella even let Andrea in on the baby names that were chosen. The cake was so beautiful. Three layers all chocolate. Royal blue and white was the theme. First and third layer were white and the middle one royal blue. On top was a royal gold crown. The layers said Welcome Little Prince. An on the Cake platter it said Christian John Sawyer-Grey.
As the cake was being served the men down the street from the grove were on the move. Witch was just a street over from where the family was right now. The Grove was not as secured as it would normally be. Because all the CPOs were at Belveve. So there was only a handful of guards in the security house, at the Grove right now watching cameras. Just like on Christmas they noticed when a car not seen on the street before, started to drive down the street towards the Grove. Matthew the head guard was getting ready to send out an alert and a text to Christian, when the men jumped out of the van. George threw a Molotov cocktail through the front window. Matthew just had time to push send before the whole security house went up in flames. George screamed to the men.
YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES BEFORE MY VAN
DRIVES AWAY, GET YOUR JOBS DONE AND GET IN THE VAN.
The explosion could be heard from blocks away. So just after it happened Christian, Mac and Carrick went outside to investigate. Christian got the text from Matthew, just as they stepped on the porch.
Suspicious Van pulling up in
front of the Grove going to
Investigate,
Fuckin Hell
What's wrong Son?
What ever fuckin just happened, happened at the Grove. Lets regroup in the house.
Just as the men stepped back in to Belveve , there was another explosion. All in the room that worked for the family had their guns pulled and were standing in front of the women and children. CJ was even in front of Daniella. Just by Christian's demeanor, Ana knew her husband was in Boss mode.
Christian called his crew over and sent them to the Grove. Then he called his underboss, nephew, brothers and Granddads over. He told them that he wanted Mac, Carrick and their Dads to stay back and protect the women and Kids along with John. Christian and the rest headed to the Grove in 2 SUVs. Just as they were pulling down the street, Christian got a call from Welch.
Grey?
Christian are you almost here, you need to get here before the authorities get here. Its bad Christian. We pulled up as the fuckers were driving off. Alexander and the rest are in pursuit, as we speak.
We are pulling up Now Welch.
With that Christian hung up the phone. As they pulled up in front of the Grove, everyone in the SUV's lost color in their faces. The security house and Daniella and CJ's apartment was up in flames and a huge banner was draped on the Grove itself. It said…….
Were was the second place we laid our heads to sleep in our life?
They all got out of the SUVs, as they heard the fire trucks on the way. Christian told his men to remove the banner before they got there. By now, more of there men had arrived. Mostly Jason's crew and a few others. Any more would look very suspicious. After all orders were given, all the men that came from Bellevue turned to look at the only one in their group that has not said a word, Daniella. Not even Christian could tell what she was thinking, her face was completely blank. But all the men were sure thinking the same thing.
There is nothing scarier than a quiet woman.
