...LUCIANO “ Adeline “I called her name as she softly blinked her sparkling dark orbs making her look so beautiful. Her chest heaved up and down as she started breathing heavily. I could feel her hot breath fanning my face making me gulp. She gasped as I snaked my arm around her waist and pulled her close as she slowly wrapped her arms around my neck, her fingers gripping my hair softly making me imagine all the wild thoughts. I pulled her on my lap before my hand traveled down to her bare thighs and inside her thighs. “ l-Luciano- “Her eyes shut and her lips parted as she moaned softly. “ its daddy for you “I whispered as she clenched her fist on my collar now. My hand moved to her panties and touched her soft petals making her whimper. “ I need you “She moaned and a small smile crept on my lips. She needed me as I much as I needed her. I held her waist and in a second, her panties were off and on the ground. “ daddy “She whimpered feeling impatient making me smirk as
...ADELINE I gasped and my eyes turned teary not because of the pain but the pleasure. His hand gripped my hair, fingers buried deep into my hair as he controlled the movement of my head. His cock thrusting in and out of my mouth before he rammed it in deeper, shoving his cock deep into my throat. I gagged terribly,my fingers on his thighs digging into him as I gripped tightly. He pulled his cock out, all sir=eared with drool. I coughed badly but only for a few seconds before he slapped my cheek with his cock impatient to get back into my mouth. My lips parted and he shoved inside of my mouth again and I gagged again only for a tear to roll down my cheek.“ fuck! You’re so sexy, baby! “My nipples were erect, so fucking hard and my entire body was even hotter than I ever knew it to be. The thought of doing it in a fucking cave and when we’re being followed, was something I did not added to my bucket list but now that It was real, I fucking loved it. “ you feel so good! “He d
...AUTHOR’S POV Luciano moved through the dense woods with careful steps, his arms cradling Adeline against his chest. Her head rested on his shoulder, her breaths soft and steady as she slept. The moonlight filtered through the canopy of leaves above, casting silvery streaks across their path. The forest was eerily quiet, save for the occasional rustle of leaves underfoot.Luciano’s jaw was tight, his mind a whirlwind of thoughts. The weight of Adeline in his arms wasn’t a burden—he carried her as though she weighed nothing. Yet the sight of her like this, so vulnerable, stirred something fierce and protective within him. She was safe for now, but for how long?The car came into view through the trees, and Luciano quickened his pace, careful not to jostle her. Christian was leaning against the hood, his phone in hand, scanning the area as Luciano approached. Without a word, Christian opened the back door, and Luciano gently placed Adeline onto the backseat. Her head lolled t
...ADELINE I was laying, curled up in her bed. The only source of light was the faint light from the window casting soft shadows across the room. The fever clung to me like a heavy weight, sapping my energy and leaving me too weak to do much more than breathe. I was tired and miserable. I was not in my usual self, my usually bright eyes were dull, my skin pale and damp with sweat. The past two days had been a blur of restless sleep and silent moments of staring at the ceiling. I had no strength to even get up from bed. Aurora sat nearby in a chair, one leg tucked beneath her as she flipped through a book she wasn’t really reading. She had been by my side almost constantly, worried about my fever and my uncharacteristic quietness. A smile appeared o my lips knowing she was always there for me after my father’s death. She had been a source of happiness in my life and I thanked God everyday for that. “Addie, are you hungry? You barely ate anything earlier,” Aurora asked softly,
...ADELINE The tension in the room was so thick it felt like it could snap at any second. I frozen, my palms clammy as I stared at Aaron, who loomed in the doorway. His sharp green eyes were narrowed, his jaw clenched, and his sheer presence was enough to make my throat dry. Aurora beside me, looking pale and stiff as a statue, her smile long gone. The air was charged with unease, and the silence was deafening until Aaron’s deep voice broke it.“Who did you kiss, Aurora?” His words were cold and precise, his tone leaving no room for excuses.My heart literally came to my throat as I got goosebumps knowing we were in trouble and there was no way out unless a good lie could help us out of this mess. Aurora’s lips parted, but no sound came out. Her usual quick wit failed her as her face went white. I glanced at my best friend nervously, silently pleading with her to say something, anything, before this spiraled further out of control. But Aurora stayed frozen, like a deer caught i
...ADELINE The room felt stifling once again as Aurora and I froze, staring at the door that had just opened. Standing there, leaning casually against the frame, was Christian, his familiar smirk plastered across his face.“Good job lying, sweethearts,” he drawled, his voice laced with amusement.Aurora’s shoulders sagged in relief, her wide eyes narrowing into an exasperated glare. “I didn’t lie,” she retorted, rolling her eyes dramatically as she crossed her arms.I sighed in relief and closed my eyes to calm my heart knowing it was not Aaron. Christian chuckled, his smirk deepening as he tilted his head. “Sure, you didn’t.” His tone was teasing, the kind that made it hard to tell whether he was being serious or not.Before Aurora could fire back, Christian’s gaze shifted behind him, and My breath caught as another figure walked into the room—Luciano.My heart raced the moment my eyes landed on him. I clenched my fists around the blanket and gulped nervously. His tall, command
...ADELINE Without Any Warning , he pushed me down onto the bed and Slammed his lips on mine , kissing me passionately , so passionately that I forgot the reason for being sad and crying and my whole mind was filled with the kiss we were sharing. I closed my eyes as his kiss got hotter each second. My body trembled feeling something building in me and he , all of a sudden , held the waistband of my pjs before pulling them down. I was weak and did not had the power so I just followed him. I closed my eyes and he pulled away , taking off my pjs and throwing them somewhere on the floor. I hide my face with the back of my hand and he chuckled before pulling my hand away from my flushed face. I gulped and he looked down at my underwear that had a wet spot on my underwear as his smirk grew wider making me look away in embarrassment. All of a sudden , he tapped my hip and I bucked my hips up as he slide down my underwear smoothly. I closed my legs and shut my eyes tightly not to fee
...LUCIANO I clenched my phone tightly, staring at Elena’s name glowing on the screen. Her tone earlier had been sweet yet suffocating as she insisted we meet. She had been wanting to see me and now that I had a reason to meet her too, I knew I should not delay anymore. I knew declining wasn’t an option; Elena never let go of things easily, especially not me. The choice of a dinner meeting, at a restaurant of her choosing, only heightened my unease.She would not have listened unless I said it to her face to face. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes to ease my mind. Stepping into the softly lit restaurant, I felt a pit form in my stomach. I did not know what was gonna be Elena’s reaction. I knew very well, she would not handle it well but I had to get it done before anything happened again. The place was elegant, intimate, with low-hanging chandeliers casting a golden hue over the polished tables. The faint hum of conversation surrounded me as I chose a table near the corne
...ADELINE The room was bathed in a warm, golden glow from the bedside lamp, casting soft shadows across the walls. It was quiet—so quiet that I could hear the soft ticking of the antique clock in the corner and the rhythmic breathing of my brother.Vladimir laid curled up against me, his head resting on my lap, his fingers weakly holding onto mine as if afraid I would slip away. Even in sleep, his grip was uncertain—hesitant, as if he had spent too long without knowing the safety of family.I stared down at him, my heart aching.He looked so small.Despite the hints of maturity that life had forced upon him—the sharp angles of his face, the scars, the pain buried deep within his unconscious form—he was still just a boy.Sixteen years old. A child who had never been given the chance to simply be one.Tears brimmed in my eyes.I wanted to cry. To sob, to scream, to let the weight of everything crash down on me. But I couldn’t.I had spent so long forcing myself to be strong, to be
...ADELINE The moment the sinister words left Charles’ lips, my’s world tilted on its axis.My breath came in shallow gasps, but I refused to show weakness. Vladimir being tortured- My nails dug into my palms as I clenched my fists, my entire body trembling with barely restrained fury.I pulled away from Vladimir without a second thought, my legs moving before my mind could catch up. In the next moment, I was in front of Charles, grabbing his collar with a force that made the room collectively gasp.“Who the hell are you?” I demanded, my voice shaking with rage. “And what were you doing with my brother?”I glared at Charles not knowing what he was playing. Why he was doing this. Behind me, Vladimir stood abruptly, his voice urgent. “Adeline!”But Charles… Charles only looked amused.His lips curled into a smirk as he glanced down at my hands gripping his shirt. His green eyes gleamed with something dangerously entertained, something darkly intrigued.“Fiery little thing, aren’t
...ADELINE The dimly lit room was filled with an unsettling silence, broken only by the faint sound of breathing. The weight of unspoken words hung heavy in the air. I stood frozen, my eyes locked onto the figure sitting on the couch, his head bowed, shoulders slumped in exhaustion.My breathing was heavier than before as everything finally settled in. My heart clenched at the sight of him—Vladimir.He looked so different from the boy I remembered. His once-vibrant energy was now replaced with a heavy stillness, as if the world had drained him of everything but sorrow. His long hair fell over his face, concealing his expression, but I could see his hands clenched tightly into fists on his lap, the tension in his body evident.Swallowing the lump in my throat, I stepped forward, my movements slow, hesitant. My hands slightly trembled but I inhaled sharply and calmed my racing heart. I lowered myself onto my knees in front of him, reaching for his hand, my fingers curling around h
...AUTHOR’S POV The city lights blurred past the window as Adeline sat in the passenger seat, lost in thought. The quiet hum of the car’s engine mixed with the distant echoes of the nightlife behind them. Her fingers traced idle patterns on her lap as she stared out at the passing streets, her mind clouded with emotions she couldn’t quite untangle.William, ever vigilant, was focused on the road. His grip on the steering wheel was firm, his posture straight, trained to be alert even in moments of silence. He wasn’t just a driver—he was one of Luciano’s best men, trusted with her safety.The ride was smooth, almost peaceful, until—SCREECH!A car came to a sudden halt right in front of them, forcing William to slam the brakes. The tires screeched against the asphalt, jerking both of them forward. Adeline gasped, her pulse spiking as she grabbed onto the dashboard for support.“What the hell?” William muttered, already reaching for his gun. His sharp eyes locked onto the unmoving
...ADELINE The flashing neon lights flickered erratically as the club’s music faded into the background. A moment ago, the pulse of the bass had been deafening, bodies moving in sync with the rhythm, but now, the sudden brightness exposed the faces of the intoxicated crowd, their movements sluggish as they adjusted to the abrupt shift. The once-dim corners, where shadows danced freely, were now illuminated, revealing everything—except the person I was looking for.My breath came fast, chest rising and falling in quick succession as I spun on my heels, scanning the faces around me. Someone had been close—too close. I could still feel the whisper of their presence, the ghost of a touch that had sent a shiver down my spine. The nickname. Yet, there was no one that stood out, no one that looked remotely suspicious.My heart pounded against my ribs, an erratic rhythm that matched the chaos of my mind. What was that? A horrible memory from the past flashed in front of my eyes sending
...ADELINE The loud music continued to blast through the speakers making my head slightly hurt. My chest rose and fell as I took a deep breath, the cool glass of vodka trembling slightly in my hand before I tipped it back. The liquid burned its way down my throat, but I welcomed the sensation. It was a distraction, a reprieve from the whirlwind of emotions Bianca’s words had stirred up earlier. I shook my head, trying to push the thoughts away, and glanced at the dance floor. Aurora, Kiara, and Rose were completely lost in the music, their laughter and wild movements blending into the pulsing beats of the club. They looked carefree—exactly how I wanted to feel. I wanted to be free and do whatever the fuck I wanted but this love had messed me up so bad. My fingers reached for another shot, determined to drown every ache in the bitter drink. I didn’t notice the figure approaching until a firm hand wrapped around my wrist, halting me mid-motion.“Let go,” I groaned, my voice slur
...ADELINE I sat on my bed, my legs crossed as I stared blankly at my phone. My mind was still spinning from the pictures and the threatening call I had received earlier from Elena. The weight of confusion, betrayal, and anger pressed heavily on my chest. I could not believe it. How could Luciano hid this from me? I should be aware of his past and specially now that his past had come in my way. Our way. Our life. I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn’t hear the door creak open.When I finally noticed, my head snapped up to see my mother, Bianca, stepping into the room. My frown deepened when Bianca quickly closed the door behind her and turned the lock.We never had a good relationship. Never had that mother - daughter thing going on and she rarely came to see me and every time she came, it was all for her benefit or to show others. “What are you doing?” I asked, my voice uncertain as I set my phone aside.Bianca ignored the question, walking toward me with a determined expr
...ADELINE I stormed into my bedroom, my face flushed with anger. I was fuming. The argument downstairs still rang in my ears, every word Luciano had said echoing over and over like a relentless drumbeat. I slammed the door shut behind me, leaning back against it for a moment, trying to catch my breath. My chest rose and fell rapidly, my emotions churning like a storm inside me.“Why does he think he can control my life?” I muttered to myself, running a hand through my hair. My hands were trembling, not just from anger but from the overwhelming sense of suffocation. I felt caged, like a bird with clipped wings.I did not want to live such a life following someone’s orders. I pushed off the door and crossed the room, flopping onto my bed. My fingers gripped the pillow tightly as I stared at the ceiling, trying to calm the rapid beat of my heart. “I don’t want to live by anyone else’s rules,” I whispered. “Not his, not anyone’s.”Just as I exhaled deeply, trying to steady mysel
...AUTHOR’S POV The front door swung open, and Adeline and Aurora stepped inside, their laughter echoing through the quiet house. They carried shopping bags, their arms brushing as they walked, lost in a lighthearted conversation about a couple they had seen at the mall.“I mean, seriously,” Aurora giggled, nudging Adeline. “Who slow-dances in the middle of a food court? It was so over-the-top!”Adeline laughed, her eyes sparkling with amusement. “And the way they kept feeding each other? I thought I was going to die of secondhand embarrassment!”Their shared laughter filled the living room as they entered, but it died in an instant when they noticed the atmosphere. They had gone out on aurora’s request as they were bored and also Adeline wanted some fresh air so aurora insisted. As soon as they entered the living room, the silence startled them. The entire family was gathered there, the air thick with tension. Luciano stood at the center, his posture rigid, his dark eyes blazi
