Chapter: 130. The Vergine d’Ombre~Valentino’s POV~For a moment, I stood there frozen, my eyes locked with her dangerously seductive ones. I was stunned not just by her beauty or allure, but by how respectfully she lowered herself before me, how softly she spoke, even though she exuded confidence and power that shouldn’t be trifled with by ordinary people. But I know better. I know better than to fall into her trap. Women like this are dangerous, treacherous, and vile. They know the power they wield and how to use it to get anything or anyone they want. They spend their lives studying men and how to subdue them with their pretentious charm and fake submission. They breathe manipulation. They know how to read people like books, and they recognize weaknesses to exploit for their advantage. And that’s exactly what Nikita is trying to do now. She’s attempting to portray herself as the calm, respectful, submissive woman who would never challenge my authority and would make me feel like her king, thereby di

Chapter: 129. Welcome Home~Valentino’s POV~“Boss, she’s here. She’s Don Corsi’s daughter,” Rocco had announced over the phone an hour ago, and now I was on a private jet slicing through the night sky toward Milan.The second we touched down, I was out of my seat, striding across the tarmac toward the waiting convoy.Five black SUVs gleamed under the hangar lights, engines humming.I slid into the center car, yanking my phone from my suit pocket to dial Corsi again. I’d been trying since Rome, and the bastard still wouldn’t answer.The line rang three times before cutting to voicemail.“Figlio di puttana!” I snarled, slamming my fist into the back of the driver’s seat.Sky, my new assistant behind the wheel, flicked a nervous glance at me in the rearview mirror. His golden-brown hair fell into his eyes, and at twenty, he still had that wide-eyed look of someone learning the ropes in my world.I’d found him at Queen’s Orphanage, standing up to some punks, and it had reminded me of the day Padrino pulled me off

Chapter: 128. Nikita Salvatore Of Palermo~Alina’s POV~Shock slammed into me like a tsunami.My knees buckled, and I staggered back, nearly sending Ivana tumbling with me.Dante and Guilia caught my arms on both sides, steadying me before I collapsed completely.Guilia pried her daughter from my grasp, sensing instantly that I wasn’t in the right state to hold her. Ivana buried her face in her mother’s coat, wide-eyed and frightened.The courtyard went dead silent.Guards, staff, even the howling winter wind seemed to pause, as though the world itself waited to see what would happen next.My eyes raked over the woman striding forward…Nikita Salvatore.Tall, devastatingly elegant, her fur coat hugging her body, her heels cutting into the snow like they owned the earth beneath them.She was breathtaking, infuriatingly so, and my chest squeezed tight with a pang of jealousy.It was as if the Table had handpicked a weapon designed to wound me.A woman no man would fail to notice.A woman who radiated the kind of raw beauty and

Chapter: 127. The New Donna~Alina’s POV~It’s been a week since the Table gave their verdict: accept a new Donna, or be ready to step down in two years’ time.I had fled to Toronto—to handle business at Timo Autos, yes, but mostly to clear my head before the walls of Castello Romano swallowed me whole.But the moment I got the call about Dante’s return, I boarded the next flight back.The blacked-out car waited for me at Milan Airport, flanked by convoys of suited guards. They bowed low before opening the door, and I slid inside, the leather cold against my skin.It’s been this way since I married Val.He’s never allowed me to step into the world without proper security. He knows his enemies stalk in shadows, waiting for the smallest chance to strike.I exhaled hard, fogging the tinted glass as the weight of everything pressed down on me.The city blurred past, little snowballs smearing across the windows, but all I could think about was the Table’s decision.A new Donna? No. Never.Val wasn’t having it either.

The cigar between his fingers nearly slipped, but he caught it with a sharp reflex before tucking it back between his lips.A dry, disbelieving scoff escaped me. Then I burst into laughter.Bitter, hysterical, and sharp.No… no, I must have heard that wrong.I tipped my head back, laughter ripping through my chest until it echoed across the silent chamber.“Something amusing in my words, Donna?” Don Enzo’s voice carried, old and grave, but tinged with irritation.I leaned forward, my body shaking with laughter as I slumped over the table.“Amusing?” I choked, my smile venomous. “Do you even hear yourself? Do you understand the filth you just dared to spew in my presence?”“Respect in the council,” Don De Luca snapped, his shrill voice cutting through the room.I turned my head slowly, pinning him with a look

Chapter: 125. Summoned ~Alina’s POV~The whispers of a cultist group called the Bloodhounds had been growing louder, their name staining every corner of the underworld.Their cruelty, silent killings, and the way they moved through cities like shadows were enough to unsettle even the most powerful of men.Every week, someone new disappeared, and every family feared their reach.I rose slowly, slipping my hand into Valentino’s. His grip was steady and warm, the kind that always made me feel safe even when everything around us wasn’t.I tried to smile. “Let’s get this meeting over with.”He looked down at me, and for the first time that morning, a faint grin touched his lips.“Now,” he said softly. “That’s my Donna speaking.”We didn’t waste time after that.A few minutes later, we were ready to leave.Valentino had changed into his usual black shirt and trousers, the kind of outfit that made people move out of his way without a word.His sleeves were rolled up, showing the veins and tattoos along his forearm

Then Nancy’s words slammed back into my skull like a gunshot. “…the room he’ll be sharing with me tonight?” Excuse me? “You say?!” I barked, forgetting I was supposed to be Peony and that none of this should matter to me. But fuck Peony. Fuck the whole plan. This is my Damian we’re talking about. Ain’t no damn bitch sharing a room with him! Nancy’s smile turned syrupy. “You heard me, Peony. Damian and I are bunking together in that cute little suite. Come on, Dam-Dam, let’s go see!” She squealed, tugging his arm like a kid with a new toy. I didn’t say a word. Just hit him with the deadliest glare I’ve ever cooked up: Move and you’re dead, Thorne. He froze, rooted to the ground. Then, without a word, he jerked out of her grip, smoothing his shirt as if her touch left stains. He turned to Elis, who was still lost in his AURA bubble, fiddling with the remote. “Elis, what the heck is this? Why’d you set up so

My brain is literally telling me to play invisible, then tomorrow stroll in as Cindy “Barbie’s nightmare” Virelli and watch Nancy’s plastic face crack like cheap porcelain. I can already see her sinking through the glass floor. Payback for prom night, when this same silicone Barbie slashed the back of my gown so I’d spend the night holding it together while she twirled in the spotlight. Petty then, petty now, just upgraded to billion-dollar petty. She had always been a petty, spotlight-stealing leech who hated that my last name could buy hers ten times over. Hated that I never bowed and clapped like the other girls. So, of course, she’s gotta try stealing the one thing that finally makes me happy: my man. Over my cold, dead body, Spark. Damian was staring at me like I had just grown a second head. I flashed him a tiny, sweet smile that screamed shut up

Hell no.My eyes snapped to her again.Holy shit.She’s standing there, arms crossed, lips pressed into a razor-thin line, and eyes blazing like she’s already picking out my coffin. I know that look.

I clutched my seatbelt like a lifeline, my heart slamming against my ribs as he blasted trashy bubblegum pop at ear-shattering levels. One hand stayed on the wheel like he was auditioning for Fast & Furious: Thorne Edition. The other squeezed my thigh like his personal stress ball until we finally skidded up to Elis’s estate, hidden way out on the city’s edge like a damn hermit crab. Who the hell drops millions on a mansion in the middle of this weird-ass jungle? No one but Elis Thorne, of course. Dude’s always been a weird, antisocial, stone-cold punk with zero chill and zero fun. He is the total opposite of the goofball grinning beside me like he just hot-wired the Batmobile.

One Night Stand With My Cocky Boss
One Night. One Mistake. One Deal That Changes Everything.
Sienna thought her four-year anniversary dinner would end with a ring, not a breakup. Shattered and drowning in heartbreak, one reckless night leads her into the arms of a sinfully attractive stranger. But when morning comes, reality hits hard, and she flees without a trace.
Back home, her life is anything but stable. A wicked adoptive mother, a spiteful sister, and looming medical bills for the only father figure she’s ever known weigh heavily on her shoulders.
Just when she thinks things can’t get worse, she meets her new boss at Weston Corp—Lucas Jones. The same tattooed stranger from that unforgettable night.
Lucas, bruised by her disappearance, wastes no time making her squirm. Then he offers a shocking deal: pretend to be his fiancée for six months and he will pay off her father’s hospital bills in full.
Now Sienna must survive working under the gaze of her arrogant, dangerously charming boss while keeping their past, and their growing chemistry, a secret. But enemies lurk in the shadows, and secrets from the past begin to unravel.
What will happen when Sienna discovers that her tangled fate with Lucas isn’t a coincidence but destiny?
A sizzling enemies-to-lovers romance filled with secrets, revenge, and a love that might just rewrite the past.

Chapter: 102: Epilogue ~Sienna~The breeze in Bellmore carried a sense of renewal, a symbol of survival after the storm. Lucas had arranged a Thanksgiving ceremony in the grand hall of Weston Corp to celebrate life, family, and the company’s resilience. Everyone was present—his mother Angelina, his sister Lexa, the board of directors, my dad, Hannah, Derrick, and all members of Weston.It was a full-circle moment.Lucas stood at the podium, his voice steady and filled with gratitude.“Today, we’re not just giving thanks for Weston’s survival, but for the people who make it what it is. This company has weathered unimaginable storms, but through faith, perseverance, and love, we are standing here stronger than ever. I thank God for this moment and for the extraordinary people who made it possible.”As the applause echoed, Lucas stepped down, his gaze locking with mine. My heart raced when he took my hand, guiding me to the center of the room.He spoke again, his voice now softer but just as firm.“And there’

Chapter: 101. Final War III ~Sienna~ I turned slowly, my heart pounding in my chest. There he was, standing just yards away, his gun still raised, his expression unreadable. His men fanned out behind him, a wall of black suits and cold stares. Lucas immediately stepped in front of me, shielding me with his body. The rigid set of his shoulders told me he was ready to fight to the death if it came to that. “Stay behind me,” Lucas murmured, his voice low and protective. “Lincoln...” I whispered, my voice trembling as I tried to steady my emotions. Lincoln’s eyes narrowed as he took in the scene—the cars, the people, Irena's dead body. His gaze lingered on me for a moment before flicking to Lucas. “You just don’t know when to give up, do you, Jones?” Lincoln said, his lips curling into a bitter smirk. “First, you barge into my mansion, and now you think you can just walk out of here with my sister? Bold of you.” “She’s not your property, Lincoln,” Lucas shot back, his voice steady but full of rage.

I absently rubbed my stomach, my thoughts consumed by Lucas. It had been over a week since I was torn from Bellmore, from him, and every day felt heavier than the last."I hope you’re okay, Lucas," I whispered under my breath, my gaze shifting to my growing belly. I smiled faintly, running my fingers over the slight curve. How happy you’ll be to know I carry your child.The thought brought a glimmer of joy despite everything. According to the scan I did shortly after arriving in Washington, I was three months along. The small swell of my stomach was starting to become visible. I couldn’t help but wonder how Lucas would react—his joy, his smile, the protective way he’d hold me.I glanced at Madi, her ginger hair soft under my touch, but the weight of my worries pulled me back to reality.

His rage was palpable, and it left a heavy tension in the room.I sat down heavily in my chair, pouring myself another drink, the amber liquid catching the dim light of the room. I swirled it in the glass, thinking about the fire in his eyes, the determination in his voice.He loved her. That much was clear. And she loved him.But I can’t let them be together.Not after what the Jones family did to ours.I tipped back the glass, letting the whiskey burn its way down my throat, but it didn’t drown the guilt clawing at my insides.

Not when it comes to my sister.”“She’s not just your sister!” I shot back. “She’s the woman I love, and I’ll fight for her no matter what. You don’t get to decide who she’s with.”“And I’ll fight to make sure she’s not with you,” Lincoln snapped, his composure finally cracking.

It was as if she had vanished off the face of the earth.Derrick stood beside me, flipping through the agenda for the meeting we had arranged with several potential investors. Weston was bleeding, and if I didn’t secure their confidence, the company would collapse within weeks.“You need to focus,” Derrick said, his voice firm but not unkind. “I know your mind’s elsewhere, but this meeting is critical. If we lose more investors, Weston’s done for.”I rubbed the back of my neck, trying to push my thoughts of Sienna to the back of my mind.

Mr.One Night Stand: Contract with the Lycan king
Isabella Sinclair, a thirty-two-year-old billionaire heiress, dislikes men and never intended to get married. However, her convictions were put to the test when she had a one-night stand affair with a strange guy, Liam Blackwood.
**********
Liam grabbed her wrist tightly and in a swift movement, he lifted her and dropped her on the bed. He pinned her hands on the bed with one hand, while the other hand slowly caressed her lower abdomen. A sudden gasp escaped Isabella’s lips as his gentle touch landed on her lower abdomen. He leaned into her and moved his lips near her ear. She flinched in fear.
‘Are you going to bite me like I did? Don’t be petty!’ she snapped sharply as Liam’s lips grazed her earlobe, his breath fanning against her skin. He chuckled slightly at Isabella’s outburst, and in an unexpected move, he flickered his tongue into her ear. She froze! She liked it and wanted him to do it again, but instead, he whispered, ‘Young lady, have you forgotten? No contact! Why do you keep throwing yourself at me, little girl!’
“What! ‘Little girl’? How dare he!” she screamed in her head, but in reality, she liked how possessive and dominant Liam is. He freed her, releasing his tight grip on her hands and jumped off the bed. He grabbed his car keys from the bedside table and walked towards the door.
“Liam! The contract! Do you want me to change it? And by the way, this is your second night here, and you haven’t given me a foot massage yet,” Isabella called out as he placed his hands on the doorknob.

She returned the towel and picked up the bathrobe from the hanger, carefully draping it around her naked body, and tied the belt firmly around her waist. She slipped into her yellow fluffy crocs, which lay carelessly on the bathroom floor."You can lift your head now," she drawled and turned to take her seat on a small stool at the corner of the bathroom. She sat comfortably with her legs crossed, exuding an air of pride and sophistication as she anticipated Liam's twerk dance. She giggled slightly at the thought, wondering if he was truly going to twerk for her, considering the fact that he appeared to be so rude and full of pride.Liam slowly raised his head and fearfully peeped from behind the bathtub. His eyes fell on Isabella, who sat confidently on the plastic stool, tapping her fingers on her legs. Seeing that she was now

He covered his mouth with his hand and slipped from the edge of the bathtub onto the freezing tiled floor. Isabella burst into hysterical laughter, kicking her feet in the water playfully and splashing it everywhere. The vodka was already taking a toll on her, making her act drunk. Liam stopped coughing and raised his head to find Isabella having the best night of her life, laughing hysterically."Are you seriously trying to make a fool out of me by requesting such ridiculous stuff?" he asked in a soft tone, swiping his long hair behind his ear. Isabella quit laughing, and the two gazed at each other intensely, an eerie silence lingering between them. Gently, Liam rose from the floor and moved closer to Isabella, their breath fanning against each other's skin. Both maintained their gaze.

He slammed the door loudly behind him and walked toward Alpha Maximus, who sat in front of a brown wooden desk, rotating from one angle to another, chewing a pen in his mouth. He seemed to be engrossed in a paper before him. Steve walked briskly, his left hand in his pocket, his shiny black shoes making a clicking sound on the tiled floor as his well-ironed trousers flapped aggressively in the air."Alpha, I have something that will interest you," he announced, standing a few inches from his boss. Alpha Maximus tore his eyes away from the paper that had his attention before Steve interrupted his blissful moment of eerie silence."Oooh!

She couldn't contain her excitement, letting out a joyous scream while kicking her legs in the air with unbridled happiness.Liam hopped into his car and drove off from the mansion. Isabella's earlier drama made him smile like a silly child. He had pretended as if Isa's seduction didn't affect him, meanwhile, it did a lot.

Immediately, Liam froze in his tracks and turned to face Isabella, who was gracefully lying on the bed. Isabella had been feeling inferior since Liam indirectly turned down her offer the previous night. She couldn’t believe he had resisted her temptation. Now, she was planning to make life difficult for him.Rolling over the duvet to the edge of the bed frame, Isabella reclined gracefully, and a slight moan escaped her lips. “Where are you off to, Mr. Blackwood?” she purred in a seductive tone, narrowing her eyes and perfectly shaped brows. Clad in black lace lingerie, her slender fingers, adorned with long, shiny red acrylic nails that beautifully complemented her skin, grazed the white sheet and sensually moved to her curved thighs, which she caressed gently, enough to make any man crave her.Liam sensed what she was up to and couldn’t help but chuckle slightly. “What do you want, Isa?
