NATALIA'S POV“I'm being serious right now, he fucking grounded me when I didn't even do anything!” I screamed into the phone.Here I was, ranting on and on to Desiree, Candy and Jasmine about Leandro and his sham of a sister, Annabelle through a video call.Don't get me wrong, I totally appreciate what he did for me back at the supposed introduction party turned murder attack on my gentle soul, but getting Rollo to lock me up in my room till whenever he said otherwise? Now, that was so not fair!“Hold on, so you mean his sister lied you into attending an introduction party for you, only for you to find out that it was a cartel meeting where the godfathers were present?!” Desiree asked dejectedly. I screamed out a yes before trying for the umpteenth time to unlock the damn door. “Try knocking again, maybe it's just a prank.” Jasmine suggested.I gave an eye roll, prank my ass!With a curt sigh, I placed my phone on the nearest space I found and began raining down knocks on the door

Leandro's pov “Keep her locked in her room, she's grounded until I say otherwise,” I said to Rollo without sparing a glance at Natalia whose shoulders had slumped. We were back home and lord fucking knows how angry I was and still am. Saving Natalia from the godfathers was an impulsive action driven by some random instincts I had. But getting to save her and then realizing that Annabelle was the mastermind behind everything icked my balls. What the fuck would have happened if I didn't show up?! “Alright boss,” Rollo nodded, dragging a shocked Natalia up the flight of stairs. I let out a sigh and with faltering steps made my way to Annabelle's room. We needed to talk, this wasn't just about Natalia, that I could tell. Though she might be right about me going all soft on Natalia, a damn mistake caused by the sickening need my cock has for her. But still. It's not enough reason for her to act so callously. Especially in the presence of the godfathers and other reputable guest

NATALIA'S POV I screamed as the dogs closed in, their teeth bare and ready to strike. “Annabelle please! I know you hate me but plea….” I yelled, tears had welled up in my eyes as the thought of over a dozen dogs sinking their teeth into me flashed through my mind. Any second from now I would be at the mercy of these huge dogs. Oh god! I tried to scramble to my feet but the dogs were too fast. One of them grabbed my arm with its teeth, and I felt a searing pain as it pulled me back down. I was trapped and everyone seemed to be enjoying it. It was evident in the laughing sniggers I heard including Annabelle's giggles. Every single person gathered was enjoying my moment of terror. Just as all hope seemed lost, Leandro appeared out of nowhere and kicked the dog away from me. He pulled me to my feet and shoved me beside him, facing the men with a fierce determination. I sniffed and held onto him like my life depended on him, going as far as wrapping my arms around him.

Natalia's POV I watched in shock as Giovanni walked past me to the kind stranger who looked totally unbothered by his presence. “It’s been a long time Eduardo…It's a miracle you showed up today,” Giovanni shook hands with him, pulling him into a hug. My brows furrowed instantly, so the kind stranger’s name is Eduardo. “I could say the same for you, how have you been?” Eduardo responded blandly. “Great! Have you seen Leandro?” Giovanni asked, scanning his eyes around the tents. Eduardo scoffed, “I'm not Leandro's keeper, Gio,” “You're his right hand man Eduardo, you should know his whereabouts” Giovanni pressed on. “Well I don't. How's that for an answer?” Eduardo didn't wait to get a reply from Giovanni before he strutted to a group of women winking at him. As soon as he had left completely, I pulled Giovanni and snarled the dozen questions I had at him, “what the fuck are you doing here, huh? Did you follow me down here? And how do you even know someone as good as

Natalia’s POVBending backward to protect me? My fingers curled on my phone screen as I tried to process her words. I could smell different emotions swirling around her words, from pride to hurt but the most outstanding was rage. pure rage.My face remained calm as I seethed, “I perfectly understand your hatred towards me which I really don't give a fuck about but what exactly do you mean by Leandro bending backward to protect me?”She scoffed, “That's none of your business, all I want from you right now is to get your miserable ass up and get ready,” she snarled at me, arms crossed.“I'll do that but on one condition” I spoke up after a minute of contemplation, “that no matter what happens at this so-called introduction party, you and Leandro would let me have some sort of freedom to talk to whoever I want to.”My plan was simple. It appeared this introduction party or whatever they had going on would definitely reel in the likes of Leandro from all over the city. Who knows? One of

Natalia's POVLooking up, I spotted the silhouette of a lady standing at the entrance of the door with a grin on her lips. "Well, well, well, that was a great show, guys," She ducked her head to the side, flashing Leandro a coy smile. "Hello, brother.""Brother?" I gasped as I noticed the striking resemblance between the two of them the moment she stepped into the room fully. Her sense of fashion was intriguing, she was dressed in a short black corset dress with matching knee-high boots and also had tattoos like Leandro but hers gave off a sense of femininity.With shiny blonde hair sashaying and piercing rings dangling, she strode to where I laid.My cheeks flushed red when she swooped down and tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear, "Hi, sister-in-law," she grinned at me, her voice dripping with meekness and something I’d rather not conclude to be sarcasm yet, "You must be tired."I scrambled to my feet and threw her a withering gaze, “Nice to meet you, sister-in-law” I replied be
