Renzo groaned. “Think, Les! Russel controls everything on his side of the city. He’s powerful. If we get on his good side, we don’t just get money for Mum’s surgery. We get protection. No one would dare touch us.” I shook my head. “You cannot be serious right now.” “Do you see any other options?”
Chapter 11 ALLESIA Time was running out. I walked out of the door and into the cold night. It was a Friday night and there I was, about to become a little slut for the same group that killed my dad. My first problem began with transportation. How was I going to reach Russel’s house at 11pm in t
“Get used to it?” I muttered. “I’m not staying. I’ll be gone by morning.” But he didn’t respond. He just nodded like he hadn’t heard me, or like it didn’t matter either way and walked off, shutting the door behind him with that final kind of click that makes your stomach drop. I turned around slow
Chapter 12 ALLESIA I didn’t want to admit it, but the food helped. It was real food. Warm, soft bread, roasted chicken, potatoes done just right. Comfort food. I ate like a robot, slow and mechanical. My thoughts weren’t on the food. They were on that damn file. Submission of my will. A contrac

Chapter 13 RUSSELL "And there goes all that pride." I leaned back in my leather chair, eyes fixed on the surveillance monitor with a satisfied smirk. The whiskey glass felt cool against my palm as I raised it to my lips, savoring the burn as the liquor slid down my throat. On the screen befor
I slammed my glass down, whiskey sloshing over the edge and staining the expense reports I'd been reviewing earlier. "You read my private contracts now?" "Someone has to make sure you don't cross a legal line." He gave me a look that told me he didn't think my head was still functioning properly. "
Because what I wanted to do to her went beyond the physical boundaries I'd always maintained. "You're overthinking this," I said dismissively. "Am I?" Kegan studied me with the same intense scrutiny he used in courtrooms. My phone buzzed, saving me from having to respond. Dr. Ramola's name flash

I watched as Vincenzo Mancini stepped down from the private jet. Dressed in a sleek, custom-tailored Italian suit, he took a minute to adjust his tie and cufflinks. The handsome bastard, I thought with a proud grin, ever so cold. It was past 10PM, but Vincenzo had no intentions of staying the nig
I watched her for a moment, marveling at her glow and beauty, which just kept increasing like her bump every day. She looked radiant, even more so with the big swell of her belly showing. Her staff saw me first because they slowly began to disperse; all of them knew how protective I was of my wife
EPILOGUE RUSSEL ~~~0~~~ I stood perfectly still, my thoughts reeling as I waited in the quiet hall of the warehouse. During my absence, Stacy had refused to speak, see, or let anyone touch her. Even Kegan, who was supposed to order a pregnancy test done for her by now, couldn’t do that because
I reached out and touched his face, “I have the perfect man, and I wish to keep everything around us perfect.” After a while, Russel turned to me with a mischievous smile. “You know, we still have some time before we have to go back.” I raised an eyebrow. “What are you suggesting?” He leaned in,

Chapter 165 ALLESIA ~~~°°~~~ Three wonderful weeks on this island, as much as we enjoyed the bliss, we couldn't stay forever. Tomorrow morning, we'll have to return to our life in Sicily. Kegan handled things in Russel’s absence up until the second week, allowing us undivided time to enjoy our h
Everywhere his finger bared, he pressed his lips there. “You’re so fucking gorgeous,” he murmured against my skin, “My wife.” “My husband.” it came out in a low moan, “How did I not know I’ll never be able to move on from you after that first time?” Russel grinned, “You were the most helpless,
