BRIDE TO THE MAFIA HEIR Take me Home
Kylie's PovI told myself it was time to come clean. I'd been telling myself that for weeks. But standing here, staring at Roberto's unwavering dark eyes as he waited for my answer, I couldn't make myself say the words. Not about Daniel. Not about what I'd done.Marrying him without telling him the truth was selfish-reckless even. But the alternative? There was no world where he'd stay with me if he knew. And God help me, I couldn't let him go.Roberto had been my rock through the storm, even without knowing the full story. He stood by me when I couldn't stand on my own. The way he looked at me, like I was worth fighting for, was a lifeline I wasn't ready to give up. It was cruel to keep him in the dark, but I wasn't proud of my cruelty. I was just... scared.I could imagine how he'd feel if the tables were turned. If it were someone else responsible for Ronan's death, he'd tear them apart without hesitation. And why wouldn't he? Ronan was his brother, his blood. I'd stolen that from

The courthouse loomed ahead like a silent judge, its plain façade offering no answers, no comfort-only a sense of finality. My heart pounded with a relentless rhythm as I stepped out of the car, Roberto's steady hand guiding me as if I were a fragile thing on the brink of collapse."Cold feet aren't an option," he said with a faint smile that didn't quite reach his eyes. His voice was warm, steady, everything I wasn't in that moment. "The judge already signed the paperwork. We're good to go."I nodded, swallowing the lump in my throat. Words wouldn't come-not the ones I needed to say. Not the ones that would tear this fragile dream apart. Instead, I followed him inside, my heels clicking against the sterile tiles of the courthouse floor. Each step felt heavier than the last.The air inside was stifling, the walls too close, the lighting too harsh. I busied myself with the paperwork, my hands shaking as I scrawled my name on the dotted lines. Focus on the pen. Focus on the paper. Don't

I couldn't stop the storm raging in my chest as Roberto whispered, "I won't let anything happen to you." His voice, steady and resolute, was like an anchor trying to tether me against an incoming tide. Yet, beneath that promise, I saw the weight he carried-grief etched in the lines of his face, his brother's death shadowing every move he made.How could he console me when his own heart was breaking? It made me feel small, selfish even, to let him bear my fears alongside his own. I swallowed hard, attempting to pull strength from somewhere deep within. "It's not just me I'm worried about." My voice came out softer than I intended, nearly drowned by the turmoil in my head."I know," he murmured, brushing a thumb over my knuckles. "We'll put a stop to this. I swear it."They were just words, fragile and intangible, yet they offered a balm to my unraveling nerves. Tonight, at least, we had each other. That would have to be enough. I forced a weak smile, hoping to lighten the mood. "So, ar

The moment his lips left my skin, I could barely stop myself from making a sound of protest, but he was already looking at me, a teasing grin tugging at his lips. "Impatient, huh?""Tease," I muttered under my breath, watching him as he unbuttoned his pants, his movements slow, deliberate. He grabbed the condom off the nightstand, his gaze never leaving mine. My body felt like it was on fire, my skin prickling, every part of me craving him. "Come here.""With pleasure," he said, his voice low and thick with desire.Roberto lowered himself between my thighs, his weight settling over me. For a split second, it felt comforting. Safe, even, like nothing in the world could touch us. But then the fire in me flared again. I was desperate. I needed him, needed to feel him inside me. His pace was maddeningly slow, his lips teasing mine like he had all the time in the world. But I couldn't wait. Not anymore. Not when everything around us felt like it was hanging by a thread, fragile and ready t

RobertoThe shrill ring of the phone dragged me out of a dream that felt too good to end. I blinked, disoriented, but the warmth at my side anchored me back to reality. Kylie, nestled against me, her head resting on my shoulder. I brushed a lock of her hair back, savoring the softness of it against my fingers. She was mine now, my wife, a choice I made on impulse but never once regretted.The phone rang again, cutting through the peace, pulling me away from the moment. I groaned and reached for the nightstand, answering without checking the screen. "What?""Where the hell are you?"Liam. His voice was sharp, almost frantic. I nearly told him to mind his own business, but the urgency in his tone stopped me. "My apartment. What's going on?""Get your ass here now. Sophia's gone."For a split second, my heart stopped. I thought he meant gone for good-dead. But as the panic in Liam's voice sank in, I realized what he was really saying. "Gone?" I asked, struggling to keep my voice steady.

I took my time getting dressed, the motions automatic, as if my body knew what it needed to do even if my mind didn't. I called for a cab, waiting for it to arrive, but my thoughts kept circling back to one undeniable truth.I'm the only one who can save her.If I turn myself in, this nightmare ends. No one else will be hurt. Roberto's family will be spared, and he won't ever have to choose between me and them. It's all up to me. I can't let this drag on any longer, not when lives are at stake. What's one life when weighed against so many others? It's not even a question. Not mine, not anyone's.The cab finally showed up. I climbed in and shut my eyes, feeling the lurch of the vehicle as it pulled into motion. Maybe this would kill my father, losing me like this. That was one of the many reasons I had stayed quiet up until now. But Papa's pain isn't enough to stop me anymore. The stakes are too high, and there are too many people depending on me. I can't keep hiding.I climbed out of

Kylie's povI waited, watching Liam work the computer. The footage flickered across the screen-grainy, distorted, but it was the only lead we had left. My fists clenched as I squinted at the image, but it was useless. "Can you clean it up? Make it clearer?" I asked, keeping the edge in my voice.Liam gave me a sharp look, like I'd asked him to perform magic. "I'm not a computer expert."No, that had been Devlin. My throat tightened at the thought of him. He was gone. Grief wrapped its heavy hands around my chest, but I pushed it away. Sophia needed me to stay focused. I couldn't afford to drown in grief now, not with everything on the line."Fast-forward to around one a.m.," I muttered, trying to focus. "They found his body pretty quick, and I don't think she stuck around after that."I was staring at the screen, hoping for a miracle when my phone rang. Without checking the caller ID, I answered. "Now's not a good time.""Roberto..."I stiffened at the sound of her voice. "Angel?" I s

Kylie povI walked into the pub, my feet dragging with every step, though all I really wanted was to climb into the SUV and drive straight to Roberto's house. I quickened my pace, ignoring the stares of the men scattered around the tables. It was early, but the smell of stale beer and the murmur of low voices made it feel like late afternoon. The bartender, a giant of a man, looked up with a deep sigh, his eyes narrowing as he saw me approach."You've got the wrong place, ma'am."The word hit me like an ice-cold slap. Ma'am. The irony wasn't lost on me-not when I was here to turn myself in, to confess the unspeakable. I didn't even attempt to smile. "I'm Kylie Morgan. I'm here to speak with James Haye. Is there some way you could convey that to him?"He stared at me, the silence stretching out like an eternity. I could feel the eyes of the men behind me, their stares like needles at my back, their interest keen, hungry. The bartender's arms came down onto the bar with a soft thud. "Th

BRIDE TO THE MAFIA HEIR A New Dawn
The moon hung low in the sky, its silvery light casting an ethereal glow across the desolate landscape. The once-dark forest now seemed less foreboding, bathed in a tranquil light that felt almost like a promise. Gabriel and Sophia had been walking for hours, their steps deliberate but filled with a sense of urgency. The journey had been long, filled with peril, but they had finally come to the heart of the Silent Order's stronghold. The stone walls of the ancient fortress loomed ahead, standing tall and unyielding. This was it the final battle. All the secrets of the Order, all the lies and manipulations, had led them to this very moment. But in the air between them, there was something else: hope.Sophia took a deep breath, feeling the crisp air fill her lungs. It had been a long time since she had felt truly free, but tonight, it seemed possible. The weight of the past was heavy on her shoulders, but for the first time in a long time, she was beginning to believe that they could c
BRIDE TO THE MAFIA HEIR Beneath the Veil
The forest stretched before them like an endless sea of trees, their thick canopies casting deep shadows over the ground. Gabriel and Sophia moved with purpose, but the weight of the discovery they had just made hung heavy in the air. The Silent Order wasn't just trying to control the bloodlines they were guarding something much darker.The night had fallen quickly, and the air grew colder, a sharp bite that tugged at the skin. They had chosen to rest by a clearing, where the moonlight filtered through the branches, giving the scene an ethereal glow. The fire crackled softly in front of them, the only warmth in an otherwise cold and silent world.Sophia stared into the flames, her mind racing. What were they really after? What was the Order hiding, and why had they gone to such lengths to keep it secret? Her thoughts were interrupted when Gabriel sat down beside her, his expression unreadable. The familiar warmth of his presence offered her some comfort, but she could still feel the w
BRIDE TO THE MAFIA HEIR In the Shadows of the Order
The days that followed were filled with an urgency none of them had experienced before. Sophia could feel the weight of the task ahead pressing down on her chest with every step she took. She moved quickly through the pack's stronghold, her thoughts focused on the journey they were about to undertake. The stone Lira had given them was tucked safely away, but it was a constant presence in her mind, its power ever palpable.Gabriel, Zane, and Kaela had been busy making the necessary arrangements. Supplies were being packed food, weapons, maps, anything that could help them survive whatever lay ahead. They knew that the Silent Order would not take kindly to their attempts to disrupt their carefully woven web of secrecy. The Order had eyes everywhere, and the last thing they wanted was to become targets of a shadowy organization that had existed for centuries."Are you ready for this?" Gabriel asked one night as they stood together in a quiet corner of the pack's hall. He was watching her
BRIDE TO THE MAFIA HEIR The Path Revealed
The firelight from Lira's hut still danced in their minds as Gabriel and Sophia made their way back through the dense forest. The stone Lira had given them was cool in Sophia's hand, its intricate carvings catching the faint glow of the moon. Neither of them spoke for several moments, the silence between them filled with the gravity of what they had just learned."Do you believe her?" Gabriel finally asked, his voice low and cautious, breaking the quiet between them.Sophia's gaze was fixed on the path ahead, her mind swirling with everything Lira had revealed. "I do," she said quietly. "Everything she said... it feels right. But the weight of it all, Gabriel...""I know," Gabriel replied. "I know what it feels like to carry something this heavy. But she gave us the key. That stone it's not just a symbol. It's something more."Sophia nodded, her fingers tightening around the stone. She could feel the power emanating from it, even though it was still. It was as if it was waiting for th
BRIDE TO THE MAFIA HEIR The Hunt Begins
The night was quiet, but the tension in the air was palpable. Gabriel and Sophia stood outside the council chamber, the weight of their newfound responsibility heavy on their shoulders. The council's agreement was a small victory, but they both knew that agreeing to support the search for the bloodlines was only the beginning. They still had no idea where to start, or what dangers lay ahead. "We can't waste any more time," Gabriel said, breaking the silence. His voice was low, his thoughts clearly preoccupied. Sophia nodded, her mind racing. "We need to find someone who can point us in the right direction. But who?"They both turned toward the woods, where the moonlight filtered through the trees in pale beams, casting long shadows on the ground. The vast wilderness that surrounded their pack's territory held secrets secrets that had been buried for generations. It was there, in the heart of the forest, that they had to begin their search. "There's an old shaman," Sophia said sudde
BRIDE TO THE MAFIA HEIR The Bloodlines' Secret
The journey back to the pack's territory was silent, the weight of the figure's words heavy on their shoulders. Gabriel and Sophia moved in sync, each step more determined than the last. The figure had given them a lead, but it was barely enough to build a plan around. They had to find the bloodlines, seek the truth, and expose the Silent Order but how? Sophia's thoughts raced, but she didn't speak. Every time she opened her mouth, the question of how to start seemed too daunting. The Silent Order had been around for centuries, manipulating everything in the shadows. Could they truly unearth something so hidden? She had to believe they could. For the pack, for Gabriel, and for herself."We need to talk to the council," Gabriel finally broke the silence, his voice low but steady. Sophia nodded in agreement, though the thought of confronting the pack's leaders filled her with unease. The council had always been cautious about change, resistant to anything that threatened the stability
BRIDE TO THE MAFIA HEIR The Truth
The silence in the forest felt oppressive after the figure's revelation. Sophia's mind was racing, trying to make sense of everything they had just learned. The rogue packs, once thought to be the main threat to the werewolf clans, were merely pawns in a much larger, far more dangerous game. The real enemy was the Silent Order, an ancient group whose influence had shaped the very foundation of their world. And now, it was up to Sophia and Gabriel to expose them.But how? How could they fight an enemy they couldn't see, a force so entrenched in the fabric of their society that it was practically invisible? The more she thought about it, the more daunting the task seemed. The Silent Order had controlled everything for centuries. What chance did they stand against them?Gabriel broke the silence, his voice low but determined. "We need to get back to the pack, warn them. We can't just sit on this information and wait."Sophia nodded, though doubt still lingered in her mind. The pack was t
BRIDE TO THE MAFIA HEIR The Heart of Darkness
The wind began to pick up, rustling the leaves around them as Sophia and Gabriel followed the mysterious figure through the dense forest. It felt as though the trees themselves were closing in on them, pressing them forward into the unknown. Each step was heavier than the last, the burden of what they had just learned weighing down on their shoulders.Gabriel's eyes never left the figure ahead of them. The stranger had not given them much information yet, but the little they had been told was enough to shake the foundations of everything they had believed. Forces older than the packs? A new world order? It didn't make sense, but deep down, both of them knew they couldn't ignore it.Sophia, on the other hand, was consumed with questions. What was this legacy the figure had spoken of? What did it mean for the future of the werewolves? And most importantly how was she supposed to play her part in all of this? Her role had always been clear: fight to protect her pack, honor her loyalty, a
BRIDE TO THE MAFIA HEIR Into the Unknown
The air around them seemed to thicken as they followed the mysterious figure through the dense woods. The rogue leader, still on the ground, glared at their retreating backs, but his words had faded into the background of Sophia's mind. Everything that had brought her to this point the battles, the broken alliances, the heartache seemed trivial in comparison to what lay ahead.The figure moved with purpose, their silhouette barely visible through the thickening shadows. Every step they took seemed calculated, as if they knew exactly where they were going, and more importantly, why. Sophia's heart raced. What was this person's role in everything? They had to be important, or they wouldn't have intervened when they did. Gabriel stayed close to her, his posture tense. The atmosphere had shifted he could feel it too. "Do you trust them?" he asked in a low voice, barely above a whisper. His eyes were trained on the figure ahead.Sophia took a deep breath, her mind grappling with the quest
