“Dad?” taking careful steps down the narrow staircase, I announced my presence. From one corner of the area, warm light met my eyes, and the faint smell of an old storage room mixed with scents of enamel and acrylic paints. “Dad?”
As I reached the end of the stairs, I looked around and saw every furniture covered with white cloth. A bed rest on one side, few dusty books placed untidily on the shelves, and the huge lonely form of my father met my gaze. He was sitting in front of an easel. His shoulders gently roll up and down in sync with his hands, moving the brush on the bare canvas.
“Dad,” I placed my hands on his shoulder. He didn’t flinch, but his hands stopped from moving gracefully.
The canvas was painted with black and blue stormy colors. Both dark shades from two colors occupy the opposing side of the canvas. Lighter shades dance around the darker one. A fight for dominance, light and dark s

~Lianna Black~It was safe to say that I got my father to work with the Italian mafia. He had his own condition, though. And I’m regretting ever agreeing with him on this.One by one, Dad’s men came to the Romano estate. Most of them looked like normal human beings and not the assassin kind that I was picturing in my mind. I thought they’d be as stiff as my father, but they got along so well with Ace’s men. It made me happy that the alliance between Dad’s Black shadows group and the Italian mafia is finally happening.It caused a fuss in the underworld, of course. We prepared ourselves for this, but what I didn’t expect was Dad’s last condition.~~We gathered in the great room after my heart to heart talk with my father. I managed to make Eugene Santino and Arthur Black sit across from each other without burning the Romano estate down.Standing in front of the Italian mafia underbosses and capos, to

~Lianna Black~“Hold on, amore,” Ace urged, a glint of excitement painted on his beautiful face.It feels like we are kids trying to escape our parents from grounding us. A forbidden love that we wanted to prove that no matter how much hindrance they put in our path, we will still make it.We’ve jumped over five balconies from Alexa and I’s room, and as expected, I was the weakest link on our team. Alexa and Jonah were already on our destination in the garden behind the Romano estate, and they left Ace behind with me.Carefully, we take each step on the narrow ledge that will lead us to the back of the house. Twenty feet, I calculated the height that gravity will pull if my Converse slips on this dew damped ledge. From the shadowy glow of the esta

~Ace Romano~Lianna’s smooth palms were resting on my chest. Ashy locks sprawled on the white bedspreads, luscious lips slightly parted. Her breath fanning my jaw, urging me to seal the distance between our lips with one simple move. Cheeks tainted light crimson, which must be from the intense activity we had on this bed or just the glow of happiness that mimics the ones in her golden chocolate eyes.Tangled in each other’s arms. This is how I picture waking up beside her for the rest of my life. I can’t believe she’s wearing the ring I asked a friend to make. She’s my fiancee and I won’t let this chance slip away from me again.Kissing the top of Lianna’s head, I untangled her body from mine and stood up from our bed with a heavy sigh. I wanted to stay with her, but work is

~Lianna Black~I was having such good sleep, sore - everywhere - and worn out, yet I’ve never felt this good. Last night was the best night of my life. Not the sex, but because I saw Ace in a new light. He was gentle, kind and giving because he loves me. The engagement ring on my finger proved just how far we’ve gone from being those people who met in a club.My mind is still reminiscing about last night’s event when I heard a commotion downstairs. I can hear people talking, but Ace’s voice was over the top like a growl. The first thought that came to my mind was my father. Ace and I didn’t come back to the mansion like we planned, and I bet my father’s fury can make a person turn to ash by his gaze.Hurriedly, I pushed the duvet off of my body and rummaged through our closet for something to wear.What if he kills Ace? God, I hope my father is not that crazy to do such a thing.Just thinking of the thought made

~Lianna Black~Watching Ace sleep with remnants of tears on the side of his eyes is making my heart swell with worry. No matter how strong he poses himself in front of everyone, in front of his men and friends, he’s still a man who had his heart broken by the person he valued.How Luka and Ace ended up this way is saddening. I knew in my heart that Ace will be able to forgive Luka, he just needs time. Their relationship is stronger than this, it’s more than friendship. They are brothers who fell in love with the same woman, as unworthy as me.I never wanted this. All I want is to be happy and live my life in peace, but what can I do? I am not worthy of their love.No matter what Luka does, it’ll always be Ace. It shatters my heart at the same time. Luka became one of the most important people in my life. He was kind and giving since the beginning, one of the few that didn’t see me as a threat but as a friend. One look at him and he

~Ace Romano~“Ace…” Lianna cried, her voice hoarse. She must’ve been crying for quite some time now. Her throat sounded parched and pained. “Ace, help me…” my eyelids were too heavy and so is the rest of my body.I need to look for her. I tried groping on my side, but my hands can’t even move an inch.Heavy weights weighing my muscles down, preventing me from moving the slightest. Wiggling my fingers was painful, but my will to look for Lianna is stronger than this. My chest was clenching painfully. Her voice echoed once more with the loud pounding of my heart. My pulse thrumming, boiling blood running through my veins. “Please save our baby,” she continued to cry. Her plea weakened, losing life and hope.Forc

One month ago…~Ace Romano~“Where do you think you’re going?” Jonah asked inquisitively. Ignoring his question, I continued stuffing my clothes in my duffle bag.It’s three in the morning. I was high… so high I feel like I am flying in the sky. When Arthur Black called me earlier, the aftermath of my sniffling and injecting popped like bubbles poked by needles. That man can scare me away with just his mere murmur of my name.Not that I would let anybody know. He is Lianna’s father, after all. I bet he knows the shitty way I treated her daughter.Two weeks, Lianna was gone for two weeks and my search team couldn’t find her. To my surprise, Arthur Black told me exactly where sh

~Lianna Black~Waking up alone in bed is not how I pictured my first day as Mrs. Ace Romano would be. My frown disappeared when I saw a single red rose on the bedside table. Reaching for the note under it, I pulled the duvet on my naked body and smiled at reading Ace’s neat handwriting.~Mia moglie, (my wife)I had to do some errands for the business. I wish to get back before you wake up, if not, know that I’m eager to get in that bed with you – naked.My heart is yours.A~Excitement ran down my entire body from his sweet promise. Damn. We’re like bunnies in bed.Forcing myself off of bed, I put my hair in a messy bun and threw decent clothes over my body. Looking at my reflection in the vanity mirror, I smiled at seeing life in my usual dull brown eyes.So much has changed.My skin is gleaming. Gone were the dark bags under my eyes. With Ace on my side, I sleep like a snoring baby. The dazzle i

~Lianna Black~ Waves. A music I grew to love and enjoyed, a song playing on repeat. The ocean would pull back the waves brought by the wind to shore, only to repeat the process. “Strip.” One word. A promise of another strenuous night, yet I did what my husband told me to do. We just finished twenty minutes of skinny dipping in the ocean. Our bodies are still dripping with salty cold water, yet I could feel my blood rushing through my veins. Ace sat himself back on the blanket where the clutter of our late dinner date was still evident. I was left standing in front of him, his waiting eyes challenging me to do as he instructed. Reaching for the string of my top, I watched as Ace’s icy gray eyes darkened under the moonligh

~Lianna Black~Six years later…Footprints on the sand, two pairs almost three sizes smaller than the other, made a clear path for me to follow. Laughter mingled with the lapping waters in the beach. The salty and cold touch of the ocean on my bare feet sent a tingly sensation straight to my contented heart.The sight of my husband not holding his Glock 19 is still the sweetest sight of him, apart from the look of him pleasuring my body, that is. He was holding a pink shovel and a blue pail, his bare legs shown by his surfboard shorts and his bare chest adorned by dust of white sands.He sat himself down on the sand, not a care in the world, his powerful legs spread languidly in front of him. His long inky hair that cascades down his shoulders, each locks long eno

~Lianna Black~I felt a warm breath on my neck followed by soft lips and tongue, stroking the curve of my skin. A moan escaped my mouth when the lips nibbled my earlobes and the hands traced my lacy panties. The hands pulled the elastic bands of my underwear and it stung my skin; it let go, but it felt fuckin’ good.“I’ve been looking for you everywhere, Alexa,” the deep raspy voice whispered in my ears, his voice so sexy and alluring, even against the music it was heavenly. And man, his spicy forest pine scent was so soothing to my senses and that woke up my sanity.I pushed the hands away from under my skirt and turned around to see the man behind me. He was a pleasant-looking man, no scratch that, he was a very attractive man. His lips, pinkish plum, well-carved nose, distinct high cheekbo

~Lianna Black~The feeling that I’m near the end of my life’s story is both sad and exciting. Will my life end in a painful death or will I find peace before I take my last breath?One thing is for sure, my life is never easy. Nothing in my life is a walk in the park. Even death.The sole of my bare feet leaves a damp foot shaped mark in every step I take. It’s getting warmer, must be because of the thick large sweater I was wearing or the sun rays that were hitting my face.Shadows of the boat’s metal skeleton railings passed by my sight as I ran. My breathing was uneven, my chest heaving hard – inhale, exhale – calm and steady. My throat was fighting the urge to breathe in a big deep inhale of sea air. To do so, I have to stop and that’s not an option.A silent prayer running through my mind when I saw men doing rounds on the upper deck. I managed to get out of the lower guest deck. I breathe out a curse

~Lianna Black~My chest was painful. Agonizingly hurting. There was an open wound in my chest, like a bottomless pit that was dug by my bare hands.I was staring blankly at the tablet screen. Gray, black, and white dots replaced the video I was watching. The little colors dance from left to right, right to left, over and over. I was silently hoping that the signal was just jammed. Because of the trees on this path we are taking or because of the mountain…The signal is poor.This is just poor signals.Holding onto the locket in my chest, it felt so cold against my skin. It was weighing like tons of bricks, pulling my head down, making me bow to my mistake.I shouldn’t have pushed Ace to save Hannah.It was wrong of me to regret my decision. Nothing will come out of it. Both of them are gone. Both of them are just memories in my life now.Ace is gone.He’s never coming back.My child will never m

~Lianna Black~Austin chuckled at my response. He had the nerve to sit on the couch, cross his leg over the other like he was watching a play in front of him.“You boyfriend will never leave this island without you,” he mumbled, shaking his head in resolution.“That’s not my problem now, right?” I huffed.Austin shook his head, his tawny eyes challenging me. “Yes. It is my problem and I have the perfect solution for this.” Motioning for his men to come out of hiding, a stout one approached him and handed over a table in his awaiting hands.“Did you grovel back to your father’s feet?” I inquired. Curiosity might just kill the cat.Austin’s hand stopped from scrolling on the screen, his face hardening as he lifted his gaze back at me.“He asked me.” Austin expounded, his tawny eyes burning with fire - angered by my insult. “He begged me to come back.&rdq

~Lianna Black~I like the sound of it. Mrs. Romano doesn’t sound so bad. In fact, it sounds… sweet, captivating. Just hearing Ace say it, allowing me to own his surname, made the butterflies in my tummy soar high before they burst into a beautiful electrifying sensation.“I’m going to kick your ass, Mr. Romano,” I teased. Permitting myself to smile, even amid this crazy attack.Our enemies clearly have the upper hand. They have the numbers as the ten speed boats seemed to have impregnated and doubled their counts.“You love this sexy ass, my wife,” Ace teased back, easily taking down another boat, aiming for the engine. I can imagine him smirking while we watch the passengers of that boat try to swim to the beach.

~Lianna Black~The golden mirror installed living rooms ceiling was giving a first class view of the erotic sight featuring Ace and I. Arching my back, I gasped as Ace pushed one of his suave fingers inside me, joining his darting tongue, poking my sensitive cavity in a sweet gesture.Grabbing onto his hair, I was shamelessly rubbing my sex into his awaiting mouth. Ace sucked on my lips, adding another probing finger in the intent of bringing me to a high. Sweat drenched my skin, undoubtedly drenching the rug under me as well.“So good…” he groaned, his fingers curling, touching my g spot that Ace magically found all the time. “So fucking good,” the squelching sound of his plunge and retreat making me moan louder, screaming his name out loud like sex craved woman. “Does it feel g

~Lianna Black~Ace planned everything smoothly for this trip. Even my clothes, from my underwear to swimsuit, he did it all in such a short time.Mia Lianna docked on a secluded island in the Caribbean. At least that’s what the captain informed us about our destination for the time being. If I thought the yacht was magnificent, this place where we are supposed to stay was even more. So much more that I don’t have the word for it.Apart from the fact that we are alone on this island, the mansion where we are headed right now on foot made my eyes dilate in excitement. It was almost like a glass house, a three story structure that reflects the endless clear blue water. As we stepped inside, my palms were starting to get slick with sweat. I’m glad that Ace’s hands were occupied with our luggage o
