Marco's POV

I have to admit, Harper has changed a lot. She’s grown into someone who can stand on her own, and what’s even more surprising is that she managed to handle everything herself. That means I can share my thoughts with her without holding back.

“Harper.” I stopped her as we were putting on our coats, getting ready to go out. She was wearing a pink knitted jacket, her light curls falling on her shoulders. She looked so beautiful that I wanted to take her right then and there.

“Yeah? What’s up?” She turned around, her expression soft.

“Nothing... I just have something to talk to you about when we get back.”

She smiled but didn’t say anything.

The restaurant was one my father had reserved. It was at the top of a skyscraper, the kind of place we hadn’t sat down together as a family since Harper’s engagement. Not that I’d bring up anything about that.

“Marco, no mafia business today. This is our family time. Let’s just enjoy being together,” my father said cheerfully as a waiter u

    Harper's POV“Why are you telling me this now?” If there had been a table in front of me, I would’ve swept everything off it like a maniac.“Harper, calm down.”“I can’t calm down!” I glared at him. This felt like my second failure. Why is it that no matter where I go, I can’t escape Marco’s influence? Even if I flew to outer space, I’d probably find his mark everywhere.He stood up, dragging his injured leg, and pulled me into a hug. We were so close, I could smell his scent, the one that always made me feel... conflicted.“You’re so... so unfair.” I knew he wasn’t one to lie. I couldn’t blame anyone but myself. I tried so hard to distance myself from everything, but it was all in vain.“I’m sorry.” I wasn’t sure if he could even understand how I felt. The organization I’d dedicated myself to, that I saw as my life’s work, was founded by someone who was born into a position of privilege, someone who embodied everything I was fighting against. I couldn’t accept that.“You joining the

    Harper’s POVWhen my consciousness floated back to me, I had no idea how much time had passed.“Water…” I murmured, and a moment later, something warm pressed a glass to my lips.I blinked open my eyes to see marks on my wrist where I’d been injected, and a man with a grim expression sitting beside the bed.“What happened?” I weakly tugged on his sleeve with my fingers.“You’d better tell me what’s going on,” Marco demanded, his voice dark.Marco’s POVMy body acted before my brain could catch up. I grabbed some rope, my instincts kicking in as soon as I saw the familiar symptoms in Harper.I glanced back at the screen, and I realized Harper had been keeping something from me. Her body was convulsing violently, and I feared she might bite her tongue, so I shoved my hand into her mouth to protect her.Barely containing my fury, I injected her with medication after she passed out. David had already received my message, sending me a confirmation via email to check on Harper.“Find out if

  • Falling for My Mafia Stepbrother   81 Her Scar

    Harper's POVI had no idea what Marco thought of me at that moment, but I was in pain. I was just a girl in my twenties, trying to forget everything I had been through. Sometimes, I wondered if things would have been different had I not escaped Marco’s villa—would I have avoided all this?Yet now, I am strangely grateful. If I had compromised back then, I would never have discovered the real Marco, never have gotten close to his soul.When he returned, I was still a bit weak, but feeling much better."Are you feeling better?" he asked."Long time no see," I replied, noticing David emerge from behind Marco."Long time no see," David echoed, a grin on his face. The last time we crossed paths, I pretended not to know him in Japan."Harper, you really fooled us with that performance," he teased. I felt a little embarrassed even though I knew he was joking."We should discuss the next step of the plan," Marco said, though his eyes stayed locked on me, making my face flush."Alright," I nod

    Marco's POVSome of the marks were old scars, while others were clearly fresh."Why didn’t you tell me?" I asked."I’m telling you now, aren’t I? Marco, you’re seeing me at my worst. Pain... it’s the only thing that can bring me a moment of clarity."I searched her eyes in the dim light, unsure whether this was all part of some plan or if these were his real feelings slipping out."I don’t believe you, Harper."Her fingers slid beneath the hem of my shirt, and I felt the familiar spark of desire flare up inside me. It was almost impossible not to react, but I had to keep my focus. There was something more important than giving in to passion right now—I needed to be sure. I couldn’t afford to take any risks that might push her further away."I’ll make you believe," she whispered.And before I knew it, we were tangled together, our bodies moving in sync. Her warmth pressed against me, her breath hot on my skin. In the heat of the moment, she bit my chin, maybe in a clumsy attempt at pas

    Harper's POVMy arm was now in his grasp, his large, warm hand enveloping my wrist. Under his control, my slender wrist felt fragile, like it could be snapped with just a bit of pressure. As he inspected the marks on my skin, his tense expression softened ever so slightly."Did he hurt you?" He asked, his voice low but filled with concern.I looked at him, mentally preparing myself, convincing myself I had to sell this act. Tears began to roll down my cheeks, each one falling with a calculated grace. I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror behind him, and I could see the image I projected—vulnerable, delicate, and broken."I don’t know what’s happening. Father, in Detroit, he saved me. He said we were once together, but... I don’t remember." My voice trembled as I tugged at his clothes, feigning confusion and fear. "Then Elena appeared, and I was so scared. He pulled me away, and then…"I stopped, letting the implication hang in the air, hoping my act would convince him of my innoc

My godfather trusts me, and there are plenty of people following me, so I shouldn’t be this scared.This kind of fear felt like the night my family died. I struggled to breathe.“Elena?” Someone tapped my shoulder.“Hmm?” I snapped out of it and gave them a reassuring smile.I gripped the gun in my hand tightly, the night wind blowing the sweat off my back with the salty tang of the ocean.As darkness fell, headlights pierced through the silence, and that familiar face appeared in the light.My blood raced, and I could hear my own breathing. That face, the one that’s haunted my nightmares countless times, was now smiling at me.“Elena? I hear you’re the godfather’s most trusted lieutenant.”“Yes. Do you have the goods ready?”“Of course.

    Harper’s POVIt was my mom!She flung the door open and screamed, but she didn’t rush to me. Instead, I could clearly see the disgust in her eyes. It was almost funny.“Cough... cough...”Marco let go of me, and I glared at him. From my mom’s perspective, our relationship must’ve looked awful, especially since it seemed like Marco had almost strangled me.“Harper, are you okay?” She walked over, gently touching my neck. Her fingers grazed the red mark Marco had just left, and I winced, covering the sore spot.“I’m fine. I’ll take care of it myself.”I could feel Marco’s eyes on me the entire time as I left the room.“Harper.”“Ah!” I jumped. It was my stepfather. He looked oddly pleased. I figured it was because Marco had returned.“What happened to your neck?”“Nothing, Father.”I hurried off to get some ointment from one of the house staff. This time, I knew I couldn’t escape marrying Marco.But that’s exactly what we needed.Sure enough, before the mark on my neck had even faded, t

Our body heat was overwhelming, making my head spin.“So hot...” I mumbled.He kept thrusting relentlessly, sweat forming a thin layer on my back.

Lydia tried to protest, but Vince always said in a supplicating and sad tone, "I just want to hold you to sleep, or I'll lose sleep in the hospital. I won't do anything else, just hold you, okay?"Vince really didn't do anything excessive in bed, and Lydia felt a little impersonal if she had refused him. Besides, Vince is a sick man, and Lydia has always had an intolerance for him.Well, Vince is not really just holding Lydia.Every time Lydia woke up in the middle of the night or in the morning, Vince's hands were on her breasts.Vince's hands were so big that he could cover her breast with one hand and then rubbed it in her sleep, intentionally or unintentionally.Lydia took it as an un

In her dream, she felt that she was being watched by eyes all the time.Whether she was walking, eating or bathing, there was a pair of eyes watching her all the time, making her feel a hint of shame.
