[ Vincent ]“So, you’re saying that you want to accept Anton’s offer and support him in his climb to the title of Russian boss?” My brother-in-law, Robert asked me.“Vincent, this is huge. You know the aftermath of this decision.” Stefano, who was listening everything quietly, said with a pointed look. He didn’t look upset but his silence always gives me headache.“He is my only chance to grab the neck of Faolan Walsh, he has gone low profile and it is giving me a sense of failure that he’s free and laughing at my condition from a different place.” I said, my grip tightened on my phone.“Anton is also a smart shark, Vincent. He knows what he’s doing. Don’t you think that he’ll boast his mental victory over you? If you help him to become Russian leader then it’ll impact your position. A man like Anton who has no name of his own, succeeded in playing Vincent De Niro on his finger tips.” Stefano said and he was right on his place.“I think you haven’t heard everything I said, gentlemen.”
[ Arielle ]Last two weeks were no less than total bliss for me. Vincent showed me a side of him that I don’t imagine exist. He expressed himself to me to a great extent. I was living the happiest phase of my life. We spend our most of time together, not talking or cuddling but he works where I paint or sketch, doing our individual work.It gave me time to observe him from close.“What are you thinking, Signora? I bet it’s our Capo invading your mind and heart.” Marcello teased me. I was strolling in the market to buy some art supply with more than three dozen guards walking around me, they were visible and I hated how people were frightened by their appearance.“Yea, I won’t lie to you, Marcello. I can’t help it. My husband is the most handsome man on the planet. Just look at him, he’s tall, have a muscular body, abs and beauty. His eye colour is also unique.” I praised Vincent openly.“Love is in the air. You have corrupted my Capo’s mind. He’s acting strange. I don’t like this vers
[ Arielle ]I hesitantly knocked at Vincent’s room door. Although, we sleep together every night, I always wake up early and return to my room. He hasn’t asked me to stay with him as a couple or hinted me to move in with him so I am taking every step with him cautiously.The door was opened by him and immediately his perfume engulfed my senses. He was wearing a tight fitted black T-shirt and black trousers and wrapped the shawl I knitted for him means he wasn’t up to work or he never leaves his room without clothing properly.“It took you very long to buy your essentials, Ari.” He said and invited me inside the room.I was immediately pulled into his arms and he buried his face in the crook of my neck, his hands loosely holding me. my hands automatically wrapped around his back.“I was waiting for you.” He said in a husky voice.“I was out for only three hours, Capo.” I giggled when he dropped feathery kisses on my neck and it felt ticklish on my sensitive spot.“Yet I feel your absen
[ Vincent ]“Vince…Vincent.”Arielle’s sensuous voice rang into my ears when I kissed her soft, supple skin. I knew it was her soft spot. Her voice turned me on and it took me every single ounce of patience to control myself from having her.“Yes, Principessa.” I stroked her flushed cheeks by my thumbs. She wasn’t looking at me means she was also going through the same tensed wave. We needed each other badly but I wasn’t allowed to engage in any intense physical activity. Nobody would stop me, not a fucking wound nor a stupid doctor from devouring my wife but I can’t upset her. I know how much my condition affected her in last few days.“It’s time for your physiotherapy. The doctor might come anytime.” She said in a low whisper and it added more misery to my self-restraining vow.“I know and he’ll come after twenty minutes which means I can have my ways with you till then.” I smirked and her pupils dilated. She was shivering which was a sign for me that her body wanted me to please he
[ Arielle ]I gulp down, embracing myself with my hands, the heavy fur overcoat wasn’t helping much in this chilly weather as I was trying my best to reach home before my father comes. It is an unsaid rule in my house, no women should be out after six and it’s past seven thirty. I don’t need to visualize what my father would do to me if he finds out that I wasn’t home before the dusk.I live in a world where my life was decided for me even before I was born and since last twenty-one years, it has been the same. I can’t even breathe without my father’s permission. My father is Desmond Wilson, the head of the American mafia syndicate. He is the most feared man, the human incarnation of Satan, what people call him in the whispers of night. His power radiates off him, power that demanded respect and obedience from everyone, the business, enemies and family.I took a deep breath and began to walk with quick steps, I already regretted ditching my security. Sometimes, it’s my escape from my
[ Arielle ]The room shrank two sizes when the tall man, whom I had supported on my shoulder entered in my apartment. My paintings were laying in every corner, covered in dust. I hardly come here since my father found out about my passion for painting and art. He thinks it’s useless since I have to make a good, obedient wife in future.He groaned a little when I helped him to sit on the sofa and went to bring first-aid kit. Born and raised into a mafia family, treating a bullet wound wasn’t new to me. I had treated my brothers before. When I came back into the living room, the man laid back on the sofa.I knelt down and carefully removed his shirt to see the severity of the wound. It looked really bad. I took the tweezers and sterilized it before removing the bullet and the man winced. He looked in pain yet he tried to remain strong and unbothered.“You should see a doctor soon or it will get infected.” I said to him but he didn’t respond.I quickly bandaged his wound and gave him pai
[ Arielle ]A feeling of safety flowed through me when I stepped into the patio of my mansion, it was guarded heavily where a fly can’t pass without my father’s permission. Vincent dropped me outside the mansion before my security guards could stop and interrogate him.Breathing for a while, I prepared for the worst. My father’s car was parked outside. I should embrace myself for the punishment waiting for me. I could feel house maids and guards’ gaze on me as I walked passed them.“Where have you been, Miss Wilson? You did the wrong thing by escaping your security, your father doesn’t look pleased.” Parker, my head bodyguard met me in mid way. He looked disappointed.“Where is he?” I asked him avoiding his gaze.“In his home office. Please, follow me.” He said and lined behind me.He can save me from everything but not this. My heart was sinking with each step I took towards my father’s office. Disobedience always comes with punishment.The wooden doors were opened by my father’s gua
[ Arielle ]I groaned as I gained my consciousness. My head felt heavy like I was hit by a hammer. I tried to flutter my eyes and the first thing that came into my view was a sparkling crystal chandelier and soft music. My memories before I passed out began to come back in bits and pieces. My father came to me in the night when I was sleeping. He was furious, burning in rage. He kicked me out of my bed and then asked me to be ready early in the morning. He said nothing. I only remember Alexander arguing with him when father aimed his gun at my elder brother and then I came in between to save him. All I could remember leaving home in his private jet.My eyes widened and I tried to get up but realised I couldn’t move because I was tied on a chair. The room looked like an expensive suite. Fear gripped me. I was locked for sure but when my eyes fell on my appearance in the gigantic mirror, it only worsened mixed with confusion when I saw my dressed changed into a skimpy dress, showing mos
[ Vincent ]“Vince…Vincent.”Arielle’s sensuous voice rang into my ears when I kissed her soft, supple skin. I knew it was her soft spot.

[ Vincent ]“I love you, Vincent De Niro.”Three words, simple, straightforward words without any alliteration of romantic words, poetic phrases to hyperbolize her feelings.Arielle just confessed that she loves me, it wasn’t out of a moment of passion or the time we spend together. I could read her eyes, she knew what she said and confident about it.“I love you, Vincent De Niro. I know I am breaking the promise I made to you before we agreed to marry. It might be a sin, a mistake in your opinion but I am always transparent and certain about my feelings and thoughts. I don’t know when it happened, perhaps the moment you saved me from Anton and his goons, I always felt safe with you. What else I’d ever want in a man who will never hurt me.” She spoke, I only listened her.I just want to listen to her.“You’ll love me even when I’ll nothing to offer you. Won’t your feelings change if I’d lose my title and will be nothing but an ordinary man?” I asked her.She again kissed my lips, “Wha
[ Arielle ]I tried my best to not move from my spot on the king-sized bed. The softness of the mattress, mils temperature and his scent could help me to find peaceful sleep but I was far from being at peace. His closeness was making me conscious, that night, we both rode on the waves of sexual pleasure but this night was different.“Aren’t you feeling sleepy?” He asked, his eyes were closed yet he sensed my discomfort and how I was pinning myself on the farthest corner.“I don’t sleep early usually.” I replied and it was true. Having nothing to do throughout the day doesn’t tire me so I end up waking till late and read books.He shifted slightly so he could face me, my breathing was shallow even though our bodies weren’t touching.“Let’s talk then because I am also not feeling sleepy.” He said and my pupils dilated.“What do you want to talk about? We don’t have anything in common.” I said in a low voice, I found it hard to look at him directly.“Tell me more about yourself other tha
[ Arielle ]“You seem troubled. I know it’s not place to ask you, it must be work related but shouldn’t you be keeping stress away until you recover?” I asked my husband who keeps zoning out when I served his dinner.“I am not able to come on a decision, Ari. This is very new to me and it keeps frustrating me because every time I come to a dead end.” He replied.“Well, this is also new for me to hear. You are the most sorted person I have ever met, Vincent. You don’t regret your decisions because you always weigh pros and cons before coming to a conclusion.” I said and his eyes again fixed on me.“But I am doubting my own self right now.” He shook his head.“May I help if you allow me?” I tried my luck but I didn’t expect him to tell me anything.“Well, it’s complicated. Do you want to hear me out?” He raised his brow and I was surprised because he was willing to share his dilemma with me.“I’ll try. I may not have a vast experience of life and people because I never got the chance to
[ Vincent ]“Vincent De Niro, I can’t believe you’re still breathing here.” Anton, who was tied on the chair and my men had their guns aimed on him, gritted his teeth at me.I smirked, “Yes, I am alive, you can see, I have a little scratch on my body but I am fine and soon I’ll resume my job.” I said, his cold blue eyes were darted on me.“My brother won’t leave you, Vincent. He’s going to hunt you down again. I am sure this little scratch is given by him.” He signalled at my chest.I chuckled humourlessly.“You’re right, this scratch is given by your brother before I sent him to rest in peace forever, dear Anton.” I said and his forehead creases disappeared.“What do you mean?” He asked me in a serious tone.“I think you are well educated to catch my words, Anton Ivanov.” I said and gestured Giovanni to wheel him close to my bed.“Tell me what did you do to my brother?” He growled in a low voice, seemed desperate to kill me.“I killed him.”There was silence in the room before the ma
[ Vincent ]Her touch, the familiar fragrance of her perfume and her shivering warmth against my skin, this is what I missed in days. I wish I could share my feelings with her. I wish I could tell her that I heard her talking to Marcello how she’s determined to not give up on me. She won’t allow me to push her away.Her confession came from her heart, I felt it and it was the moment when I decided to break the promise that I made to myself when I buried Fiona. I am ready to fall in love again.I am ready to let Arielle break the wall I built around my heart because she’s the rightful owner of my heart now. I know what I feel for her is stronger and more intense than lust. I need her emotionally and I know that she’d be there for me if I ever need her.“Signora isn’t here, Capo.” Marcello’s voice pulled me out of my trance and I looked at my right-hand man giving me a raised look.“I know, I am not blind.” I rolled my eyes but his grin widened.“Yes, I also know that she isn’t here but
