2025-04-05 08:00:32Warmth. That was the first thing I felt.
Not the sharp, searing kind but the deep, bone-melting, comforting kind—the kind that made my limbs feel like they weighed nothing, the kind that made my body float somewhere between exhaustion and bliss. I sighed softly, my eyes still closed, feeling the weight of them against me. Matteo was behind me, his arm draped over my waist, his chest a solid, warm body pressed against my back. Luca was in front of me, his hand resting lazily over my thigh, his fingers tracing faint, soothing patterns against my skin. Safe. I felt safe. It was ironic, really. These two men—dangerous, ruthless, untouchable—were the only ones who had ever made me feel this way. A gentle touch brushed against my hair. “You awake, pretty boy?” Matteo’s voice. Softer than usual.<

Bound by blood and lies CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT (ELI'S POV)
We arrived at a mansion. The mansion stood before us, a grand epitome of dark luxury. It has tall towering gates that gleamed under the streetlights. The room bars had a series of intricate designs and at the top it had razor sharp spikes that could impale a person. It was a silent warning to anyone who didn't belong here. It has an equally tall fence that surrounded the property and stretched far beyond the eye could see. The entire place was reinforced and impenetrable. There were guards at every turn, they all stood like statues— silent, armed and watching. The driveway leading to the mansion was paved with black marble that was polished to the extent that it reflected the night sky. Whoever lived here was no small man— or woman. Luca drove past a row of luxurious cars— Rolls Royces, Lamborghini, Aston Martins, limousines— all screaming with wealth, power and danger. I swallowed hard.

Pain.It wasn't the kind that faded with time.It was a deep, raw and utterly ripping kind. The type that seeped so deep into your skin then settled in your bones. The kind that alters your brain chemistry and makes you question your own sanity.That was how I felt right now, shackled in the cold, hard dimly lit basement. I had expected this, planned for this.But nothing had prepared me for them.The door creaked open and the thick scent of colony and gunpowder that could only belong to one man filtered into the room. Slow deliberate footsteps echoed against the stone floor. I didn't lift my head, I didn't need to because I already knew who it was..Luca Rossi.The man I had been sent to destroy.The man who now owned me.“Still breathing?” His voice was as smooth as silk yet as sharp as steel as it carried authority.The metal cuffs dug into my wrists, it kept digging further into my already raw wrist, blood dripping lazily down my arm. My shirt was gone as well— it had been ripped

Blood.The smell of blood and sweat was thick in the air. I was at the underground auction house which was hot due to the packed bodies. Low murmurs could be heard coming from the dimly lit chamber outside as their victims were being paraded to be auctioned off.I was one of them.Standing there, bruised, shackled, thirsty and shirtless.My wrists were bound in thick iron cuffs that dug into my skin. There was a cut on my lip that bled and made it painful for me to lick it, a victory mark from the handler I had fought because he thought he could try to break me before that auction.A slow smirk crept up my face but I quickly wiped it away, casting my eyes down as I focused on the mission. The crowd outside were cheering. Predators, all of them.My heart pounded as it got to my turn. The auctioneer silenced the crowd with a wave of his hand then began, "Up next, we have something...special." He grinned. "Eli. He's ex-military. Disgraced, abandoned, left to rot by his own family after p

I knew a test when I saw one.And right now? I was being tested.The underground auction was successful but Luca and Matteo weren't fools. They might have bought me but they sure as hell didn't trust me.Not yet.Matteo leaves against the wall of the indoor gym, rolling up the sleeves of his shirt, revealing his toned, tattooed muscular arm and a silver bracelet that gleamed under the light.“Like what you see?” He asked, teasing.I ignored him, my eyes sliding over to Luca who sat on a sleek leather chair at the aft end of the room, watching us like a king on his throne. A glass of whiskey held in his hand as he swirled it lazily, he acted like he wasn't interested in what we were doing but I wasn't stupid.He was studying me.They both were."Fight me," Matteo said simply, cracking his knuckles.I didn’t rise to the bait. I knew what this was. A way to gauge my strength, to see if I was as dangerous as my fake backstory claimed.They thought I was a former soldier—a man who had been

This game. I was losing.My days usually started with brutal training. Matteo wasn't going easy on me— not that I expected him to. His strikes were always fast, powerful and relentless, designed to bruise skin and break bones.I took it all.I had to.But what I didn’t expect was the way he pushed boundaries. Teasing touch on my exposed body, brushing his hand against my member, sliding his knee between my legs and brushing his lips against my skin while Luca watches from the sidelines with a drink in hand, always.He was always watching.For what? I didn't know.And I didn’t know if I was passing.***After training one day, I was shoved into a shower but not alone.Matteo, who was drenched in sweat, stepped in after me like he owned the place.No. Like he owned me.Peeling his shirt off his body and looking amused by my reaction.“What are you doing here?"You’re stiff," he said, ignoring my question, his eyes flicking over my body.No shit."There's a lot of tension in his muscles,

One thing I have come to learn in my story time at the Rossi mansion is that the hallways had ears. If your loyalty is doubted even for a second, you will join the blood of the people used to build the empire.The first step of my mission was to get in, the second was to gain their trust dn from the look of things, I was on the right track.So here I was, standing in front of the dinning table, my body still sore from my training session with Matteo. Bruises had become a part of me now, he always made sure to leave a mark like the masochist that he was. He left marks that wouldn't fade for days and always made sure to add new ones. I caught him staring at them with a sick, twisted smile on his face on several occasions.Luca and Matteo were like fire and ice. One made calculated cold moves while the other ripped things apart.And now, they were both watching me keenly.“You’ve proven yourself,” Luca finally said, his deep, soft voice echoing in the dining room. “You’re an excellent fi

I stayed in the car until my heart calmed down and my body didn't feel like a burning inferno.Fuck them. I won't let them get me caught and tangled in their web of lies and manipulation.By the time I stepped out of the car, I saw Luca talking to his men that were stationed around the building we had come to. It looked like an old, repurposed factory— such types of buildings were commonly known to be neutral ground for Mafia businesses. No camera, no recording devices. Nothing but blood and business.I could already tell that this was no small meeting.Luca motioned for me to follow them inside with a tilt of his head. Inside, I saw a lot of high ranking Mafia members of the Rossi Mafia that I had been investigating for months. They were all seated around a long, black table under the dim lights.I watched as their eyes flickered over to me, scanning me, sizing me up.I ignored them, playing my role as the perfect bodyguard.“Sir.” A man whom I had never seen before, spoke up.“Yes,

The gun felt like it weighed a ton. I could see the impatience beginning to crawl into Luca's eyes. Matteo on the other hand was happy about the position I had been put in, he found it entertaining.The man was pushed to his knees before me. He shook violently, his breathing becoming panicked and frantic. He knew that he was going to die either way but the question was whether or not I was going to be the one to pull the trigger.I had killed before but not like this. Not in cold blood.Not to prove loyalty to men that I had vowed to destroy.My mission. That's what I had to focus on.My grip on the gun tightened, time was ticking. My heart raced in my chest so fast that I thought it would burst out. My instincts screamed at me to do something — to move, to run.But I didn't move. I couldn't.Matteo let out a slow airy laugh then walked behind me. He was way too close for comfort as he pressed his chest against my back, letting his heat seep into my bones. His fingers trailed from m

Bound by blood and lies CHAPTER THIRTY SIX (LUCA'S POV)
Power was a delicate thing. Most men thought it came from brute strength, from fear, from making others submit through sheer force. But true power wasn’t about that. It was about control—control of oneself, control of others, control of the game. And I had always been a master of the game. I had always believed that breaking someone was an art. There were two types of men in this world—those who broke under force and those who craved to be broken. Eli was the latter. I saw it in the way his body tensed before relaxing into my touch. In the way his breath hitched, his skin flushed with something dangerously close to shame. He was still fighting it, still pretending that he had a choice. But submission wasn’t about choice. It was about acceptance. And I was going to make him accep
Bound by blood and lies CHAPTER THIRTY FIVE (ELI'S POV)
The weight of the pen felt heavier than it should have. I had signed my name, bound myself to them in a way I couldn’t quite understand yet, and now—there was no turning back. My signature sat boldly written on the page, ink thick as Luca took the contract back, sliding it into his desk like it was a done deal. Like I was a done deal. A thrill of something dark slithered down my spine. Ownership. I belonged to them. That should have scared me. Maybe it did. But beneath the flicker of unease, there was something else—something I hated to admit. I wanted it. I wanted to see what it meant to be theirs. Luca’s voice pulled me from my spiraling thoughts. “Stand up.” I obeyed, legs slightly unsteady as I pus
Bound by blood and lies CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR (ELI'S POV)
The sun filtering in through the kitchen window warmed my skin. I could feel that I was different. Last night had changed a lot of things about me. I had never in my entire life imagined that I would have an intimate relationship with not just one man but two men. But now that I had experienced this, I had no regrets. My cock felt every tender every time I moved, a reminder of what we had done last night. A reminder of us. The heat. The pleasure. Everything. It was both intoxicating and terrifying. But ever since we left the bedroom and came downstairs, Matteo and Luca acted as if nothing had changed. They were back to their usual selves—Luca calm, calculating, and unreadable, while Matteo was wild with his playful arrogance barely contained. They bickered over eggs, talked business, but neither of them looked at me the way I wanted them to.
Bound by blood and lies CHAPTER THIRTY THREE (LUCA'S POV)
The air was still heavy with the remnants of our passion— sweat-slicked skin, the musky scent of sex and cum clinging to the sheets, and the slow, relaxed breaths of three thoroughly satisfied bodies. Eli lay tired between us, his chest rising and falling in slow, uneven breaths. Matteo had one arm draped over his waist, his fingers tracing lazy patterns on Eli’s damp skin. I leaned back against the headboard, watching them both, my own body still vibrating from the intensity of what we had just shared. What we had done. For a while, none of us spoke. The room was quiet, save for the occasional rustling of the sheets and the distant sound of the occasional guard barking orders outside. I let the silence settle, giving us all time to bask in the aftermath of everything. Then, finally, I moved. “Come here,” I murmured, reaching for Eli first. He barely reacted at first, too spent to move, so I slid my arms beneath him and pulled him onto my lap. He let out a small, sleepy no
Bound by blood and lies CHAPTER THIRTY TWO (LUCA'S POV)
Grabbing my cock, I slowly pushed it in, enjoying the way Matteo's body clenched around me, resisting the intrusion at first, trying to push me out before accepting me, just like he always did. A low groan escaped me as the tight heat wrapped around me inch by inch, the sensation so intense it nearly made me lose control and cum right there. Matteo let out a strangled moan, his grip on Eli’s throat tightening for a moment before he caught himself, loosening just enough for the other man to suck in a desperate breath. But that relief was short-lived as Matteo resumed his brutal pace, fucking Eli’s throat like he owned it again. "Fuck," I hissed, grabbing his hips as I went all the way in. "I missed this." Matteo arched his back, pressing against me, his body trembling as he adjusted to my size. He was always greedy, always desperate for more, but I knew he loved the slow burn just as much as the roughness that would inevitably come. I rolled my hips, dragging my cock almost all

He was driving me insane. As much as I hated to admit it, that’s exactly what he was doing. Ever since he walked into our lives, I hadn’t been able to stop thinking about him. I usually liked my men soft and submissive. Except for Matteo, of course—he was a wild animal. But Eli had been putting up a hard façade from the start, one I was now determined to break. I was going to ruin him. Seeing him kneeling before me, looking up with my cock in his mouth, was both heaven and hell. I wanted to fuck him, to claim him, but I knew I had to take my time. This was probably his first time, and he needed to be prepped before he could handle both Matteo and me. Even now, as I looked at his tear streaked, flushed face, I felt a deep sense of sick satisfaction in me. I loved his tear
Bound by blood and lies CHAPTER THIRTY (ELI'S POV)
We got to the wing of the house where their bedrooms were. The wing that I had been unable to enter. Luca scanned his thumb and the door slid open and we walked into the room. Wait. A room? As I looked between them I realized that they slept together. It should have been weird but instead, I found myself being jealous at the fact that they got to sleep together whilst I slept alone in my room. I had expected a room that just screamed luxury but what I was was a whole new level, it reminded me of the room in the basement. The bedroom was very big yet it still felt intimate. The walls were lined with deep, smoky gray panels, giving the space a sultry, seductive feel. A massive four-poster bed dominated the center of the room, draped in the finest black silk sheets that shimmered under the dim glow of the recessed lighting. Heavy, black curtains
