Devil In Disguise All about the Giannellis
Fourteen years ago.“Angel!” My sister whimpered when I swiped the tiara off her head. She burst into the master bedroom where Papa had just finished dressing up. “Papa, Angel took my tiara!” I heard her cry just as I followed her in. Papa picked her up with a grin. “Why would you do that, Angel?” Because Lyra cried to Papa about everything. That, and because I didn't like being copied. Mama and Papa had let us chose whatever we wanted to wear for their vow-renewal ceremony today and the tiara was my idea…until Lyra decided she wanted one too. I loved my sister but I didn’t like her doing everything I did in the name of looking up to me.He put Lyra down and picked me up. “Don’t bully your sister, Angel.” He punctuated his words with a kiss to my forehead. “You are getting taller and heavier by the day. One day, I won’t be able to carry you up anymore.” “That’s not true. You are the strongest man in the world. You can even carry Mama up the stairs.” I countered and wrapped my arms
Devil In Disguise Convenient hugging
Curtis Seeing Angelica cry did something to me. I had never talked about Hyacinth—Lyra—whatever her real name was. No one knew the real reason why I kept the necklace except Giancarlo, but that was only because he was there when it happened. I disliked talking about the past. It brought up memories I was better off not thinking about. I didn’t only tell Angelica about it because I wanted her to understand why mother thought her name was Hyacinth. I felt compelled to, not that I would ever admit it. After that conversation, we watched a movie—well, I watched her watch a movie—then I ordered room service. She only ate a few bites before she pushed the food aside and said she needed some rest. So I let her sleep, only for her to look up at me with those big, gorgeous eyes and ask me to lay with her. So here I was, holding a woman in my arms while she drifted to sleep. It had only ever happened once—when she was so restless from her nightmare and the only way to stop her from moving a
Devil In Disguise Sly little seductress
This honeymoon wasn’t going to be so bad after all. Something had changed between us. Angelica wasn’t so opposed to being close to me. It was almost amusing how little it took to make her change her mind about someone. She had decided to stay as far from me as she possibly could long before our wedding. If I knew bringing the surgery forward would change her impression of me so much, I would have done it ages ago. Or not. Her closeness was a double-edged sword. My dick wouldn’t go down for a damn second and my right wrist was starting to hurt. The culprit didn’t know what she was doing to me. Breaching the invisible boundary between us had made her forget she was getting dangerously close to a man. Like right now, she was clinging to me for dear life as she screamed about some fictional monster in the horror movie we were watching. “Is he coming?” She asked, her face pressed against my chest so hard I didn’t think she could breathe. She was sitting so close to me she might as well
Devil In Disguise Contract signed in the sand
Angelica This was becoming pathetic. First, I had to put on an innocent yet provocative act, and now I had to pretend to be a frightened little bunny in need of saving from a fictional monster? Hell, I had binge-watched the entire franchise of The Reaper with Spider in one night and we had eaten popcorn through it all. Well, I had eaten popcorn and Spider had used the movie as an excuse to wolf down two humongous boxes of cheerios. We had seen more horrifying scenes in real life than any movie franchise could ever dream of creating. The only real thing was how I felt when he carried me off the love seat like I weighed nothing and then stroked my back to coax me to sleep. How the hell was I supposed to sleep? I was aroused as hell and that was before he stole a kiss.I had undergone gruesome torture before but somehow it all paled in comparison to wanting a man, knowing he wants me just as badly, and not being able to have him—and the icing of the cake, it just happened to be the ve
Devil In Disguise Naughty wife
I couldn’t believe I was supposed to be using these seduction tactics on Miles. Before I set the plan into motion, I didn’t feel a thing about it. Of course, there was nothing pleasant about seducing one of my enemies, but I was not disgusted by the thought either. But after meeting both Curtis and Miles in real life, my stomach churned at the mere thought of being in an enclosed room with Miles—even though I would have already gotten all the answers within three days. Besides, I wouldn’t have lost track of the plan. Curtis, on the other hand, was dangerous in more ways than his identity. He was tempting me nearly as much as I was tempting him. If it wasn’t so obvious before, I was now certain I wouldn’t be able to lure him and come out of it unscatched. But, a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do.“You never talk about yourself.” I remarked as I shifted in bed to ‘accidentally’ brush my thigh against Curtis. I only had two days left before we had to go back to Silverwood. This w
Devil In Disguise All the forbidden places
Curtis I flicked Angelica’s forehead and when she looked up at me, I smiled. “Welcome back.” She snorted. “What does Crystal like? Should I get her some gems or something? Find magic crystals?” “You don’t have to bring anything.” It was almost laughable. Was my wife nervous to meet her mother-in-law? I couldn’t say I blamed her. A video call was one thing. Meeting each other in real life would be different, though I already knew mother liked her. She rarely smiled at anyone she had just met, even when she was at her best. Talking to new people was a chore to her. Whether it was because Angelica was married to me or not, she liked her and I had a feeling they were going to get along. That wasn’t what she thought. “What if she hates me?” “Why would she hate you?” I frowned. “I don’t know,” she wrung her hands. “Because I’m taking her son away from her?” I grabbed the chance to pull her over and sit her on my lap. She tried to wiggle out and gave up when she realized I wasn’t l
Devil In Disguise Ending the feud
Angelica It wasn’t enough that I had lost my mind. Now I was losing my memory too! How could I forget when today was? As soon as I dumped my suitcase in my room, organization be damned, I grabbed my phone and made a beeline for the door. I met Curtis just as he exited the elevator. “I’m going to the hospital.” I explained before he could ask. I didn’t know if he even wanted to know. Whatever. He frowned, running his eyes over me. “Are you feeling unwell?” Since when did he care if I was unwell? “I’m going to see Nana.” I pushed past him, declining his offer to drive me. This was my last chance. Spider was right where I thought he would be, by Nana’s bedside reading her a book. Seeing her listening so silently, one would think she understood what Spider was reading to her. I knew she wasn’t understanding any single word of it. Spider was the first to see me. He acted like I didn’t exist, reading on and flipping onto the next page. Okay. Maybe it wasn’t going to be easy to end
Devil In Disguise Charming the old and the young
“Who cares what happens to Inferno?” Spider dismissed, only to backtrack immediately. “Scratch that. I care if Inferno goes up in flames. That’s the best thing that could ever happen to that wretched family. “Spider!” I growled at him. He glared at me in return. “Don’t tell me you feel bad about it?”I did, but I couldn’t tell him that. Instead, I revealed what I had been thinking about for the last few days. “Lyra could be alive.” “What?” He was more shocked than I expected, looking at me like I was out of my mind. Maybe I was, but I couldn't dim the flicker of hope. “I know this sounds crazy, but the Arcieros didn’t kill her. Her body was never found…she could be alive.” Spider placed a hand on my forehead to feel my tempereature. “Are you okay? Do you feel tired?” “I don’t have a fever!” I swatted his hand away. That prompted him to pace circles around me as he tried to make sense of what I had just said. When he finally sat down, he shook his head. “That’s not possible. Do

Devil In Disguise Pregnant
Angelica"What is it like being a mother?"Klara paused with a spoon of chocolate ice cream halfway towards her mouth. I only realized how odd my question was when I saw how she was looking at me. I dug into my ice cream and shoveled a spoon into my mouth to calm myself down."Why would you ask?" she asked. "Are you planning to have kids?"I was glad I wasn't looking at her so she wouldn't read my mind—not that I still believed shrinks could read minds but it was awkward nonetheless."Maybe," I gave a vague answer. Considering Curtis's stance on kids, her surprise was understandable. However, I didn't want to tell her I was pregnant yet. It didn't feel right to tell anyone else before Curtis."Well," she shrugged. "That's a broad subject. But I had all these plans for my kids. Rowan and I always wanted two, close in age, and we planned everything including what parenting methods we would use, which schools they would go to, what kind of friends we would allow around them, how I would
Devil In Disguise Test
Angelica I groaned as I forced my eyes open, adjusting to the blinding light that had just been flickered on. I didn't know how long I had slept. Hell, I wasn't sure if it was day or night. There was no window in this dingy cell and the door was a solid hank of metal that didn't allow any light through it. The only source of light was the offensively bright bulb above me, which had been kept off until now. I had alternated between sleeping and pacing in the dark the whole time and it was driving me crazy. The only thing I could feel was the chains around my wrists and ankles, reminding me that I wasn't dead yet. I didn't know how long had passed since Curtis interrogated me about The Viper. It could be a day, a week, or a year. Hell, it could be ten years for all I knew. I looked down at my stomach and my lips twitched. At least there was a way to know if months had passed. My belly would bulge out. This was Curtis's idea of torture.To be fair, solitary confinement was one of the
Devil In Disguise Chapter 163
Curtis“Angelika Giannelli, Angel of Death…is there any other identity I should know of?” I mocked.“Tell me everything about The Viper,” I demanded.She averted her gaze, dragging the long chains with her so she would walk up to me. I smirked when she stopped, her radius finally running out.“Is this necessary?” She bit back.Yes, it was. This woman killed Miles right under our noses and we didn’t think she was at fault. She played us all like a violin with that innocent smile on her face, all while taking out one Arciero after another and pitting us against each other. However, that was not why I was here.I pointed at her chains. “That will be the least of your problems. Answer me.”She shook her head. “I can’t tell you anything. You’re going to kill me anyway. Just do it.”“I knew you would say that.” I grinned. Someone with her skill could endure a lot of pain.Besides, I couldn’t bring myself to torture her. At least not physically anyway, which was odd, considering how willing
Devil In Disguise Finding the runaway bride (6)
Angelica I needed my head examined. Was I seriously considering having this child? I had bought a dozen pregnancy test kits in the hospital’s pharmacy and couldn’t wait until I got to my hotel room, so I took the tests right there in the hospital washroom. Unsurprisingly, all of them came positive. It was unbelievable. I didn’t know what I thought pregnancy felt like but this was not it. I had expected a little more drama. Aside from my boobs feeling like they were about to fall off, the doctor mentioned I was lucky enough to have a morning sickness-free pregnancy. Maybe that was why I still couldn’t believe I had an actual baby inside me. It sounded like a joke—until I remembered I had to tell Curtis. Between upgrading and downgrading my way through as many cars as possible in the last two months, and spending each of those nights at a different hotel, I had about a thousand dollars to my name. It was a drop in the bucket in relation to how much I needed to bring up a child. I
Devil In Disguise Goosechase
AngelicaI felt like crap. Where the hell am I? I wondered. I forced one eye open and squinted, wincing from how horribly my head hurt. I patted around for my phone and remembered dropping it the night before. I hadn’t stopped to pick it up. I was too busy running for my life with Curtis hot on my tail. I didn’t know how he found me but I wasn’t going to be able to hide from him forever, I guess. My plan was perfect if I do say so myself. I ran around the city, leaving Curtis a trail that would make him think I was headed for Arcron, then I circled back and returned to Silverwood, where I rented two apartments; one in my name and the other under Klara Arciero. I stayed at neither. I spent every night at a different motel far from both apartments. The apartments were only a way to keep Curtis busy if he found out I was still in the city. Which is why I couldn’t understand why the fuck I thought it was a good idea to check out my fake apartment. I was yet to enter the building when
Devil In Disguise Finding the runaway wife (5)
CurtisTwo months later. Why was I still on this wild goose chase? I hadn’t caught a whiff of my wife even though I felt I had searched the whole of West Auburg. She couldn’t have left the country. There was only one person capable of helping her get a fake passport and he was currently on our side. Sometimes I could swear she was leaving me a trail. Though when I got to it, she was gone like a puff of smoke. I was more frustrated by the realization that the longer it took to find her, the farther away she could go. If she found a way to get a fake passport from somewhere else, she could be halfway across the country and there was nothing I could do about it. But I wasn’t giving up. I meant it when I said I would tear down the whole world to find her. I was not giving up now. I was still staring at the road with my hands gripping the steering wheel. What if I was approaching this from the wrong angle?I took a U-turn at the next exit and returned home. Klara was visiting, which was

The Viper “Angelica left.” I glared at Spider. “What do you mean she left?” He shrugged, letting me know there was nothing else to explain about it. She ran away. “And you let her?” He scrunched his nose. “You know there’s no such thing as ‘letting’ with Angelica. You could lock her up in a cage with an active electric field all around it and she would still find a way to leave.” His words conjured up a memory of that feisty little kitten she once was. She’d been looking for me for a year and I knew every bullet she put between a target’s brows, every throat she sliced was to get my attention. She did get it, but it was way too much than she bargained for. She ended up in my dungeon after putting down one of my most loyal men. I made sure the shackles were way too small for her to wiggle her hands free, and the chain was too short to be of any use. I was going to decide whether she was worth keeping that night but I walked into the dungeon only for her to head-butt me and make
Devil In Disguise Finding the runaway wife (3)
CurtisLyra Giannelli, now known as Eloise Dalton, was as hard to find as her sister. I already knew she was Samantha’s cousin from overhearing their argument but I still couldn’t find her, not even with Giancarlo’s help. Eventually, I had to ask Samantha and I had to promise not to harm a hair on her head before I got any useful information.Good, because I didn’t plan to hurt her. She was more useful to me alive, anyway.I watched as the debate played out on her face, if she would be able to run past me if she tried. She decided against it. Smart girl. I didn’t track her down just to let her escape.She sat down opposite me. “Make it quick. I have to get home.”“Of course.” I let her settle down before I asked what I knew she was already expecting. “Where is she?”“Who?”“Don’t play dumb with me.”She crossed her arms at her chest. “What do you expect me to tell you? That I know where to find your wife? Why would I know that if you don’t?”I knew what she was worried about. “Look, I

Lyra “Come with me.” Angelica urged me. When we made it to her car, she had floored it out of the Arciero mansion’s garage and only stopped about half an hour later. We were far from the Arciero mansion and certainly not being followed. How nice of her to ask if I wanted to leave with her after grabbing me without much choice earlier. I was yet to figure out why we were running away. Wasn’t Curtis her husband? So what if her maiden name was a little different from what everyone thought? “Why?” I asked. “You said your life is in danger. I don’t want anything to happen to you.” She said frantically, and I knew she was hiding something. “Curtis might just take his anger out on you.” “I’ll be fine.” I assured her. Samantha was my cousin. Not biologically, but if the Carlo she always talked about was Giancarlo Arciero as I was starting to think, Curtis wouldn’t hurt me. And Andre…well, I wasn’t about to put Angelica in more danger than she already was in. “No one wants to mess with
