Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia A new bride?
Alpha Luciano's POVI noticed the man approach Arabella. He looked familiar but I could care less. What was he doing with her?She glanced in my direction while talking to him. Was this a scheme to get my attention? It wouldn't work.I watched Arabella take his hand and follow him to the dance floor. Watched him slide his hands around her waist.Anastasia was talking to me about something but I was no longer listening.I would not give Arabella the pleasure of seeing me get jealous. His hands kept wondering and touching her over and over again but she didn't seem to mind. How could she dance like that with him in front of so many people but if I touched her in front of some people, she tried to kill herself? I would never understand women.Then she was laughing the way she never did with me. Surely whatever he was saying couldn't be that funny. Some couples moved around them obscuring them from my view and I nearly jumped up from my seat to follow their movement.Calm the fuck down,
Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia Insulted
Arabella's POV Based on principle, one should never eat at a table likely to be poisoned. When you were in the harem of a man getting married to his first and probably only wife, if she invited you for a feast, the probability that it could be poisoned was very high.Especially when she had caught said person in a very incriminating position with her betrothed.That was the reason I had gone out for a walk before the breakfast she would share with all the women in the harem. Okay, I might have exaggerated the situation a bit.Sue me. I knew she wouldn't really poison me but I was not willing to put myself in that sort of uncomfortable situation. It was better to just avoid it all together."A penny for your thoughts?""My thoughts are very expensive." I quipped before turning to look at Alec. Fine. The reason I came here wasn't to avoid food poisoning or an uncomfortable situation with Luciano's bride. It was to see Alec.The thing was I felt incredibly disturbed and guilty about
Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia I see red
Arabella's POV"We made thirty million dollars in profit." My eyes widened. "It's small but we are still starting out. Once we've made our name a bigger name, our purse will also get fuller."I tried not to gape. Thirty million dollars was small compared to what we stood to gain? After realizing my life was at stake because of Luciano's fiance, I left the harem contemplating all the ways I had fucked up and with Alpha Luciano and all the myriad ways in which his bride was going to get back at me for all of that.The next two days had been dreary and filled with the stench of sickness in the harem which Luciano would never know since he never visited the harem in person. And for some reason, he didn't call anyone up either. A lot of the women had recovered already but a few remained under the weather because of the concentration of the poisons they had taken in.I had been exceptionally bored until I had gotten contacted by Natasha and here I was discussing earning millions without b
Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia Unreal
Arabella's POVMy world fell out from beneath me. Who did Alpha Luciano think he was? That he could pick me up and discard me whenever he pleased. That I was actually his property?I shook with anger but I refused to give him the pleasure of getting a reaction out of me. "Of course, Alpha Luciano."And Alec. He was just like Alpha Luciano to think a life could be bartered for. To collect me like I was a shoe or car to be acquired. I like that so I'll just take it to thank you. I looked at the seemingly guileless fiance who had poisoned the entire harem quarter, looked at his uncle who looked at me like I was a stain to be purged away, and then I looked at my supposed new owner and stepped towards him.It didn't matter. As long as I made enough money to escape none of this would matter. It would be even easier to escape from Alec than Alpha Luciano. I had to plant the device now. I would not get another chance to enter this room again without being caught on camera as the situation
Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia Trial
Arabella's POVThe dungeon was dark and I could hear water dripping from somewhere. I didn't remember how long I had been here. Hours? Days?"She killed my cousin! She should be executed now.""That isn't how I do things in my pack. First, there will be a trial.""A trial? She killed him. What the hell do you need a trial for? I am the future Luna of this pack. Surely I have a say in these affairs."His voice turned frosty. "No, you don't. Take her to the dungeons."How long had it been since then? I had no idea. I looked at my hands. I had taken a person's life. Because of me, the person would no longer draw breath. I looked at my hands. I hadn't meant to. No, that was a lie. I'd fully meant to. I had chosen myself and had no regrets. I would make the same choice again if I had to. I heard the slam of a door and the sound of footsteps on a staircase then light at the periphery of my vision.It was Anastasia, her mouth twisted with intense dislike. Suddenly I felt very grateful for
Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia Any plan?
Alpha Luciano's POVThe pressure was mounting on me."What on earth are you waiting for to execute her? And don't give me that cock and bull story you gave Anastasia about the law of this pack. Do you know what the Espositos will do to this pack if they think we had a hand in Alec's death? If they think you used Arabella as an assassin to get to them?""Uncle Tommaso lower your voice when you speak to me. This is my last warning to you. More than anyone I care about this pack, its welfare and the rules that govern it. Be it the Espositos or whoever, the rules will not be changed. Yes, she killed him but until I ascertain the truth behind the matter in front of the entire pack, there will be no execution. If the Espositos want her dead so bad, they can spring her from the dungeons and kill her themselves.""Luciano, you can't let your pride come into a matter such as this–" He attempted to push forward again but I cut him off."I think I will be the judge of when and where to let my pr
Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia Your turn now
Arabella's POVAs I walked towards what was possibly my execution, I was calm. It was the sort of calm that came from accepting one's helplessness rather than the one that came from assurance.I was barefoot - my footwear had been confiscated almost immediately I had been incarcerated by the guards on Anastasia's orders- my feet were injured but a bit stronger due to the little food Margaret had been able to give me. I limped, escorted by a guard on either side. My pulse thundered and my mouth was dry. I swallowed. I couldn't even ask for water because Anastasia had forbidden it. At this point, I was more scared of Alpha Luciano marrying her than I was of her marrying him. They took me to a part of the pack house that had been out of bounds for me before. It was like an amphitheatre only smaller. It was teeming with wolves that I could hear way before I reached it. When I entered the baying increased and I averted my gaze choosing to look at my panel of judges. Emery had explain
Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia Let me
Alpha Luciano's POVI smelt fear.Pure unadulterated fear. Since the day I lost my parents, I knew the scent well. Initially, I disregarded Arabella's claims as a ploy to extend the decision time. I approved. I wanted a stay on her execution as well and a few white lies here or there never hurt anyone.The moment Anastasia's scent had changed, I had grown wary. It was subtle like she was actively trying to calm her body's reaction down. I had never seen that level of mastery over one's body before. Especially not from an airhead that was supposed to become my trophy wife.That was when my suspicion kicked in. Uncle Tommaso hadn't noticed yet that Anastasia was beginning to crack under the pressure. Meanwhile, I was waiting on Mikah's report. He was supposed to give me a detailed rundown on Anastasia any minute now. That was why I had given Arabella an opportunity to speak. I had no idea that she was even more informed than me about the affairs going down in my pack.If everything th

Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia The end
Alpha Luciano's POVI sat outside the surgical ward as they took the bullet out of Arabella.Uncle Tommaso sat next to me and we were silent for a time."I'm sorry." He began."Me too."I was sorry about a lot of things. I was sorry for the way I had treated him, he was my uncle. The man who had raised me. He deserved better.I was sorry about the way I had treated Arabella in the beginning when she had been as much of a victim as I was. Vitalio Bianchi, may his soul rest in peace had never betrayed my family. Instead, he had been betrayed by his own family."I shouldn't have kidnapped her… you were right. Vengeance is a blade that cuts both the wielder and the person who is cut."I was silent. In my head, I was replaying the scene from earlier on. Seeing Arabella shoot down the man who she had thought to be her father until just seconds ago. I should have felt cheated out of my revenge but I couldn't help but feel like she was the one with a larger claim to it. I wondered what it w
Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia I've got you
Arabella's POVI was shocked. My father was using me as a human shield? Surely there was a mistake. A misunderstanding because what parent would use their child as a shield?Luciano paused in his tracks but his uncle looked like he could have cared less. As long as he was able to kill my father, he didn't care who else had to lose their life in the process. Luciano raised his hand to stop his uncle, his jaw was clenched and his blue eyes burned an unholy silver."Vitalio, would you really threaten your daughter's life just to ensure your own escape?"My father laughed, his chest vibrating behind me and a chill swept through my veins. "Father?" There was a mistake. There had to be. Maybe he just wanted to use me to escape. He would apologise any minute now and tell me that this was the only way for him to escape with his life. He would tell me–"Shut up you dumb slut." He said his gun digging into the back of my skull. I froze in that moment realizing that I might not know my father
Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia She dies
Alpha Luciano's POVThe first thing I did after seeing the warehouse was to mind-link my men. It was on the outskirts of the city. By the time they got here, the fight would be almost over but I wanted them here anyway in case Uncle Tommaso decided to play a fast one on me. That way Arabella would be safe. The limo zoomed off behind us and we entered the building. The moment we entered, gunshots went off. I dropped to the ground and rolled. Before they could begin shooting on the ground, I was already hiding behind some boxes. I pulled out my gun. Vitalio Bianchi did not follow the unspoken terms for the meeting. He had brought in his men. It wasn't like I hadn't expected it. It was Vitalio after all. It was just that I was having a problem connecting someone who was as despicable as him to someone like Arabella.The shots continued to go off but I didn't scent Uncle Tommaso's blood so I knew he was alright.I followed the trajectory of where the gunshots were coming from. One, two,
Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia Betrayed
Elder Tommaso's POVI watched the realization dawn on his face that he couldn't do anything, that he was powerless in this situation. Luciano's face twisted with anger and violence as his grip on me tightened to the extent that my vision blurred. Good. This was the fighter I had raised. I suddenly felt a pang of hope. She hadn't completely killed off the Luciano I knew."If you do not tell me where she is, you will not cross the threshold to this office alive. I will dice you up bit by bit until there is nothing left of you.""If you kill me, Arabella also dies." I pried his now loose fingers from my neck. It was pathetic how easily he had given in once he heard her name. "She is in a very volatile location. If you care for your mate even a little bit, you will have to do exactly what I say to get her back."I saw the unchecked fury and disbelief in his eyes and the way his hands clenched into fists. He obviously wanted to pummel me in but because of his mate, he had restrained hi
Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia Too late
Arabella's POVWhen I woke up, I was tied to a chair. The last moments of the fight came to me. How I had fought to the butter end. How someone had jabbed me with a needle. And how it had all gotten dark. Yes, I could remember now. What I couldn't do for the life of me was tell you where exactly I was. I looked around. I was in a basement. It smelt familiar and come to think of it, the painting of the room looked familiar.Someone entered the room. It was Luciano's uncle. I couldn't believe it. I thought he was sick so what had happened? After Luciano had told him about us, had this been his reaction? I thought about the timeline. It hadn't been an hour after Luciano left when those men came. There was only one explanation. He had planned it all. Removed Luciano from the equation so that I would be defenceless.Goddess, I didn't know for sure what was going on but I intended to find out. "Arabella Bianchi." He spat my name out like it was a curse. Maybe it was for him. "You kidn
Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia He took her
Arabella's POV"Emery!" She shouldn't have been here. She should have been far far away. I shook her awake but she remained passed out on the ground. I needed to take her in and call Luciano. Then– I smelt wolves approaching. I could smell three of them. They could have been the perimeter guards that Luciano had told me about. But looking at Emery's prone body in front of me, I had my doubts. I pulled Emery into the house and locked the door. I backed away and picked up my phone. I had to inform Luciano. I called him. It rang but he didn't pick up the call. I tried it again with the same result. Someone pounded on the door and I jumped.The door would hold. It would– I saw an indent of a fist in the iron. I took my phone and ran for the side exit in the kitchen. There were only three. I could leave out back before they rounded up to the sides. It was possible they didn't know about that exit. I needed to leave now. I ran to the dining area and the kitchen. I pushed open the doo
Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia Shot
Arabella's POVAt this rate, he was going to be late to work. Again. I really had to stop trying to assist him with getting ready for work. It wasn't helping either of us.Luciano pushed me against the wall as our tongues duelled for dominance. I wanted him so fiercely as though an hour ago, we hadn't been at it.His hand moved between my thighs expertly fingering me, I gasped into his kiss riding his fingers as I tightened my grip around his shoulders. His phone rang. We ignored it. I was almost there, my orgasm a few heartbeats away. I grabbed at the zipper of his office pants. I needed him inside me now. The clasp gave way under my ministrations. As I slid my hand down the zipper and Luciano buried his fingers so deep inside me that I was sure he could lose his ring inside me if he tried, the bloody phone rang again and again.I groaned in frustration as he pulled away shortly to pick up the call before settling firmly between my legs to continue touching me. I threw my head ba
Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia Eliminate her
Emery's POVWhen I opened my eyes, I was in an unfamiliar basement. It had a barely functional light bulb and many knickknacks spread about. Where was I?Last I remembered, I was leaving. I hadn't even gone back to my parents' home. I sent Mom a heartfelt letter containing my apology for being such a problematic daughter, asking for her forgiveness and advising her to take this opportunity to leave that man. To leave the person who couldn't give two shits about us. I refused to keep being a burden to her. I left through the back woods to avoid notice. One minute I was leaving this wreck of a pack behind, the next I felt a blunt object hit the back of my head then darkness. Had Luciano changed his mind about sparing me? No, I didn't think so. Luciano wasn't one to attack from behind. He would have killed me and gotten it over with. He was the Alpha after all. No one would even question him. The door creaked open and Elder Tommaso stepped in. My eyes widened with shock as I realized
Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia Another wicked plan
Emery's POVMy stomach rumbled in complaint. My strength was waning. When Luciano had told me to wait for my punishment, I didn't think it would take so long. I had no idea of the amount of time that had passed. No one came to give me food or water. I tried to reach out through the pack link to contact Mom to know if Luciano had taken his anger at me out on her. So I sat in my cell awaiting my punishment. What else could I do at this point? I had paced so much that I wondered at how the stone floor showed no signs of wear. I was anxious, tense, tired, and weak. I thought about what I could have done to induce a different outcome. Should I have let Anastasia's man kill Arabella that day? Should I have left when Luciano asked me to leave? My mind spun with the possibilities of what ifs and I must have fallen asleep at some point because I woke up to the sound of the door of my cell opening. Luciano stood at the cell door himself. That wasn't right. If he intended to execute me, he
