Cruel Heart 41
His intense kisses, his slides through my body, made me shiver as everything that was hot became more. My body felt like flames screaming amidst an erupting volcano and I couldn't say anything over the loud sounds my mouth was making. Kaanadan was driving me more and more crazy and when my limit reached… God, it was inexplicable.The scene from this morning after my comment still plays in my head. My body boils just remembering it and it unsettles me more than I could have thought normal. I don't deny that I was almost, well almost, falling for his game; I was almost giving up, hiding any fear that makes me stop and think. But your cell phone rang and the only thing that made me give up was your call to work...“Celeste?I come to my senses.I blink a few times and turn my attention to Marga, who says something I don't understand. What a bad friend I am...We're in a coffee shop, which is right in the center of the city and great for distraction, even though it's not the sight of

"Attack?" Celina's voice sounds frightened."Yeah... one more."I comment on the cell phone, watching Kaanadan get ready, stuffing several guns into holsters strapped to his jacket and body. The body that still has cuts and wounds from that attack.We were woken up in the middle of the night by screams. The mansion, as protected as it is, became weak among the group that invaded and ended up injuring several soldiers from Kaanadan's organization, as well as leaving three dead. Since then, he's been silent, seriously, and I don't imply, already knowing the reason.With the cell phone to my ear, due to Celina's call that morning, I adjust my pants, finishing getting ready when I throw the single braid of my hair, to the back. We are leaving here. Better, I'm leaving.“But the Salvatore mansion is one of the most protected. How did this happen?“Traitors. — I say the word that still torments the tall man in front of me, no matter how much I speak Portuguese. Sigh. "I'll have to han

A buzzing invades my head as the bullet approaches both sides of my head. When I open my eyes, already wet with tears, I see three dead bodies in a lake of blood. Dimitri and his two cronies, of course. Both sides of me are lying forward with gunshots to the neck and head; As for Dimitri, a shot to the chest that went through his back.I look up at Kaanadan and his hand, holding a weapon, slowly lowers, while his eyes come towards me calmly. — How many times will I have to ask you to trust me, Celeste?My voice doesn't come out. I know that, it's that damn feeling of shock, where it blocks you from the easiest movements and attitudes. I look around, noticing at the door, Scott and Stefano, both lowering their guns pointed at the sofa. They killed their companions...— I don't think I'm okay... — I murmur to myself, putting my hand to my throbbing head, feeling a pain consume me.— Celeste? — Kaanadan makes me look at him and then everything goes dark...I woke up with a buzzing so

KAANADAN SALVATORE— We have few men at the barriers, sir. The last attack took more than twenty and those who remained are too injured to still keep them there.Sebastian's voice rings through the room as I'm looking at the painting hanging on the reddish wall. An old painting from the organization's former formation. Not that it's important, it's just something to distract me from what I'm hearing. The silence manifests itself, although besides the two of us, Fiore also remains in the corner, sitting on the sofa.—Kaanadan? —Fiore. He calls me confused, making me turn my face to look at him. — We are in a serious attack, we cannot act silently.— And what should I do? — I question, turning around in the chair and looking into his gray eyes.He withdraws, signaling for the soldier to leave, however, he only leaves at my request. And as soon as we are alone, Fiore sighs. — I know that since last time, you refused to go on a rough hunt...Already knowing the path this conversatio

I woke up to an insistent vibration on the table next to the bed. I lifted my head, groggy from sleep, and then I realized it was my cell phone. I looked to the side and Kaanadan was still sleeping, thrown to the side while the blanket only covered him from the hips down. I took a deep breath and picked up the device, noticing the unknown number that had called me about five times yesterday. I think about ignoring it like every time he called me, but, imagining that this will make him call me again, I answer.- Who is it? — I ask, sitting on the bed.I look at the clock on the table next to Kaanadan and notice that it's barely five in the morning.Who in their right mind would call someone at this time?The silence on the call makes me take a deep breath to stay awake and ask again:—Who is speaking?If you don't speak, that would be the right question.The call then ends and I stare at the cell phone screen for a while. How strange... I check the number, trying to find it, but

Didn't sleep at home. A typical reaction of someone who feels guilty or simply started a drama for psychological manipulation.Maybe it was working.A certain relief overcame me yesterday, as I freed myself from the words that have been stuck in my throat for days, but along with it, the feeling that nothing will get better still gnaws at me. I take a deep breath and kick the rubber doll once again, which then swings sideways before I kick it again, keeping my hands in closed fists in front of my face.This is keeping me going and not even the morning workout helped me release the anger I'm feeling. Yes, that's why I'm in the middle of the afternoon kicking a dummy, sounding like I'm hours into a marathon and my ankle joints are almost blue from punching something.I punch the doll's face several times, grunting nervously, before my body gives way and finds the soft ground.I brought my wrists to my eyes, trying to alleviate this bad thing that torments me.— Poor whatever the d

KAANADAN SALVATOREA kiss that is not soft or calm. It was the craziest definition that could go through my head when I pulled her towards me, closing my arm around her waist and with the other hand steadying her head, making it impossible for her to even think about leaving.Celeste dug her fingers into my hair, drawing me to her as tightly as my arms do to her body. I tasted her mouth, deepening something that was clearly already intense, doing something that I know pleases her: I pulled her tongue with mine; losing myself in the sensation of kissing her so intensely that my own body ordered itself to press her against the door, forcing my body against hers, making us both sigh. Her lips moved with mine, increasingly hot and moist. We were devouring each other, almost literally.I pulled her leg higher on my hip, keeping her around my waist, hearing her moan against my lips. As the effect of everything she had on me, my own body was already waking up, warming up while the way her

-I should not have done it!I said frustrated, after leaving the bathroom and heading back to the bedroom. I was literally fucked, feeling a terrible burning and walking like women after a natural birth of three hours of suffering. Going to the bathroom is terrible, walking then, don't even mention it.It wasn't like that when it really should have been...Kaanadan was lying in bed, after sorting out the last details so that no one would discover that my honor had turned into blood on fabric yesterday — early today — on a floor, instead of the wedding night of two newlyweds.— Very painful?I nodded, panting as I joined him on the bed. Honestly sore is a gentle nickname for what I'm really feeling, it felt like I was completely inflamed or there was something that shocked me every time I tried to walk like a normal person.Kaanadan welcomed me into his arms, laughing. Not only did I pinch him, I gave him dirty looks. It wasn't funny!— I said I was going to hurt you... — He com

Cruel Heart Epilogue
KAANADAN SALVATOREI'm still getting used to the fact that the twins were finally born, getting used to the deep look they both have and the lightness they give us when looking at them. I honestly can't help but smile, but I also can't show it in a sensitive way to the entire organization.Ever since I found out I was twins, I couldn't let go of the thought that both of them should rightfully have a high position of power in my organization — and that now they belong to them, too —, with that, I'm happy that the future Dei Capi is a boy, but I see a bigger change when also having a girl. However, this would not change my decision — due to several factors — and after years of being betrayed by outsiders, I was even more certain that this position had to be filled by someone from the family.The large open corridor gave me the image of the ground floor, where the entire room was full of soldiers and allies of the organization, everyone waiting and talking, g
Cruel Heart 88
CELESTE "SALVATORE"I woke up with discomfort in my body, which made me roll over in bed and notice Kaanadan still behind me, sleeping peacefully while his arm was underneath my giant belly. Freeing myself from the weight a little, I sat up in bed and noticed that it was still night, which made me feel strange since after pregnancy I rarely woke up in the middle of the night.The discomfort was so exhausting that my entire body ached. I touched my belly, feeling only slight movements, something that always happens when babies move, nothing out of the ordinary, nothing but my heavy body.I got up due to the lack of sleep the situation left me with and covered myself with a robe, leaving the room and heading towards the stairs. I went down slowly, carefully and went to the kitchen, finding Ada drinking tea. Upon seeing me, she hurried towards me.— Are you okay, Heaven? — She held me and ran her hand over my face, brushing the bangs of hair out of my fa

KAANADAN SALVATOREMonths later...The city overcame the attack and returned to being great Washington, all the rubble returned to the way it was before that hellish war and the allied organizations persisted in a permanent peace treaty between us, as did China and Russia, which after the deaths of Chuang and Romanov, we managed to use positive points to end our rivalry seriously and with a treaty sealed in documents. The company has already recovered and after the attack it received more global knowledge and more sponsors and more income — in other words, more success. It seems that the light after the storm has finally arrived, making everything lighter and more comfortable.It's great to be in power again. It's incredible to have my control in my hands and know everything that's mine without fear of losing it suddenly. After the war, I gained more territories and managed to further expand my power in the mafia, to be even bigger than it already was and
Cruel Heart 86
The truth is that Dani was right, we should have known what was going through Gabriel's head. So we each went in a different direction, he went to Rafaelle and I went to Romanov and Chuang. I was very afraid that things would go wrong, but I really believe that the "no" I already have, so all the misfortune is already here and I just have to change it.When we spoke in an area that they covered and protected, they both agreed to the kidnapping and soon became responsible for it, pulling soldiers and leaving me alone in an area lit by car headlights and where it slowly attracted people. At the moment I had no idea where Gabriel was, until Daniel's voice sounded in my ear and he gave me his location.Well, I got to him... I managed to fill his head and come out unscathed in that war, in fact, I made a deal with the war, the mafias that were fighting to escape at that time gave their own words that they would protect me— and they did. No bullet hit me and several of Kaanadan'
Cruel Heart 85
The day dawned lightly while the movement in the hospital was chaos among the injured, dead and survivors. The war had finally come to an end, everything was over and as impossible as it was to believe, I was the one who ended it. In all the news programs, the chaos of the war was explained, along with the police investigating everything and the city itself trying to get back on its feet after last night's nightmare. The fact is that it would take us a while to get back to normal, but now all of Washington knows about a local mafia, a mafia that they have no idea who commands, but they know is among them.While Kaanadan finished putting the last stitches on his body, I rested on a sofa. I was fine, I had a few light scratches and the babies were still intact in my belly, I think the only shock I have is the psychological shock, since I still can't believe that I killed Gabriel with my own hands... that I saw him die and on top of that I became the real culprit for his dea
Cruel Heart 84
KAANADAN SALVATORE— Sir, three bases recovered, we closed the gates with passwords and we have already set up the external traps. — I hear it from the point, coming from a soldier.— Casino.— Still no signal, no one has given answers...I continue to climb one of the buildings, so I can see the territory better and sigh.— Okay, head to the mansion, we'll hold off their soldiers here.— Okay, sir.I approach a window and look at the entire street in flames. I clutch my stomach, feeling discomfort from the bullet still stuck in my flesh, but I'm finished in several places and I feel like I can receive even more, taking into account the large flow of shots that are taking place down there.Several allies died, soldiers don't even speak to each other, the explosions took more than was desirable and the few who are alive are at an unfair amount with their rivals. Of course, this war will only be won if they die or give up, but especially i
Cruel Heart 83
CELESTE BRANDÃO— The bases are full and the soldiers are already in the buildings. — Daniel narrates, while I analyze the sheets of Gabriel's plan further.— The sky is not completely black yet. Is it still possible to see there? — I question and look at him.— Yes. But everyone will probably go by car.— Even better, they're armored. Or at least I think Kaanadan wouldn't be ridiculous enough to use a normal car for war.We opened more screens adapted in a warehouse at the back of one of the buildings and then I have all the images of the war. The largest adapted commando is the one I have, along with Daniel and two others from Gabriel who left in a few moments to get the weapons that were left in the car. We can listen to the soldiers, we see the war through cameras attached to their clothes or in the buildings themselves, we have weapons for protection, traps with bombs outside and we are still aware of the entire control of the war.Gabr

KAANDAN SALVATORE— Just trust her. I'm not going to say it's an easy thing to take on your wife's impulsive side, but I know she won't fail in this requirement. The lives of many are at stake.Rafaelle's voice sounded while I was drinking a whiskey in the living room, at the same time as both Victório and Gregório did the same on the opposite sofa.— I thought you didn't like my sister, Rafaelle; who only respected her for the organization. — Gregório commented, as he brought the low glass towards his mouth for a new sip.Rafaelle sighed. — Look, I'm not saying that Celeste is something easy for an impatient person, but she knew how to make many people respect and admire her. — I look at him, seeing him still firm. — She was a good Capo. If they claim that she is on our side, I believe it.— The problem is not believing, but knowing if her plan will work. The end of the afternoon is approaching, the attack will begin and we have no exit plans. —
Cruel Heart 81
Covered only by a robe, I appeared at the table outside on the yacht's side balcony, where Kaanadan was setting dinner. He was no different from me, but for some reason he was in a clear battle between being tense and calm — I understood him, to tell the truth — so I approached him and kissed his shoulder, seeing his face turn towards me. and the same smile weakly.- Hungry? — Fun question.— Totally... — Rio.I sit down, propping my back against the protective barrier, feeling the night breeze hit my face and make my skin tingle from the cold.The yacht was lit by yellow lamps and the table had a mouth-watering dinner — which, even unbeknownst to me, was made by Kaanadan. Then I saw him sit next to me, putting his arm around my back, while I helped myself to everything.Finally, Kaanadan also accompanied me to dinner and, with all this, he seemed to think in distress. I know he doesn't want to talk, but his own mind is eating at him and it makes me a little
