|| KIERA STEVENS'S POV||The sound of machine beeping awakened me. I opened my eyes groggily to see a female doctor, writing down notes next to my bed." Where..am I..", I managed to mutter those words but somewhere, my throat ached badly. The female doctor gave me a small smile, helping me to regulate the bed," You are awake? You fainted in the car, Miss Stevens!"I barely remembered the moment. My thoughts were so occupied with everything that I couldn't remember the conversation with Molly. After swallowing hard, I looked around to see Molly. But there wasn't anyone nearby." What happened to me?", I questioned the doctor, rubbing my head slightly. My head felt too heavy like stone.The female doctor asked me cautiously," Did you miss your period?"My eyes froze in horror. Could it be..I was pregnant? No..Luca always used protections. Though I wanted to take pills, I learned from Google that it could cause hormonal imbalance. So, I just dismissed the idea.I took the doctor's wor
|| AZRAEL DE LUCA'S POV ||A WEEK LATER IN ITALY,Honestly, this mansion has never been my favorite place especially after the night when our entire family was killed brutally. Countless guards gave their lives in order to save us. I was way better at living in a different state with a different identity. No one knew my real identity there except a very few people. Everyone knew me as the biggest investor in the country as Azrael De Luca. It had been an hour since I reached here yet I started missing Ryan beside me. After his mother left for work, he was always by my side." WELCOME BACK, DON!", the chief of our guard greeted me, bowing longingly as I stepped inside the mansion in a kingly manner. Because this was my place, my territory was to rule solely. Two rows of black uniformed bodyguards were already waiting for me there. They all hung their head low at my presence.I kept my head high, strolled through the entrance before ending up at the front garden of our mansion. Matteo an

Hurry Up!! ________|| AZRAEL DE LUCA'S POV ||"What..what..did you just say...", his voice trembled in rage followed by a ferocious roar. He kicked the center table into pieces. I just stared down at the table blankly, wondering did I take the correct decision by telling him?Although, I was the Don, my grandpa held the supreme powers above us. As an example, I was the prime minister of this empire then he was the actual president. Every big decision was taken after discussing it with him.I inhaled a deep breath, blurted again clear and loud," I said..I have a child with an unknown girl. It was just one stand night. Later, we got separated and just a few days back, I happened to discover that she has a son with me! "SLAP!!He slapped me hard right before I could finish my words. I knew that I de
[ Hello,I read all of your comments today. Most of you asked about the update schedule. I update naturally 1 chapter everyday except any urgent reasons. However, I am planning to update 2 chapters just for this week! Don't forget to give reviews under the book!]|| AZRAEL DE LUCA'S POV||I stared at the woman ahead in disbelief. She just stripped herself without hesitation. Cassendra was fully naked in front of me. Even I hated to say that she had actually no undergarments left underneath. Instead of feeling shy, she was smiling like a seductress.I didn't even give her a full glance, and marched over to her to pick up the clothes to cover her body. I growled at her face, infuriating," Fuck! Cassendra! Are you out of your mind? How can you act like a whore in front of me?"I knew that Cassendra had a little obsession with liking me from our childhood. Hence, she always liked to stick to me, nagging me to do something every now and then. I always find it annoying. But I never expected
|| KIERA STEVENS'S POV ||" Seriously? Are you still going to shoot with this punk expression?", Molly rumbled unhappily, and continued to stare at my makeover. I couldn't get over my emotions. Even last night before sleeping, I imagined about fucking him.God...this devil has made me a sinner..I was about to join the shooting when my phone buzzed unexpectedly, an incoming call from an unknown person. I furrowed suspiciously but soon felt warm, thinking that it might be a call from Luca because he didn't call me back after last night." Surprise.. come out, little dove..", I froze when the person from the other side spoke out loud. I almost gasped in disbelief, memories hit me back.Stumbling over my feet, I muttered still sounding vulnerable," Oh my god! Alastair..Is..Is that you.. "However, I didn't wait for his answer. I ran out of the makeup room, straight outside of the building. Then, I was shocked to see the man, standing with my favorite roses. The bouquet was so heavy and
|| KIERA STEVENS'S POV ||" This..you are fucking lying to me..You aren't taking Ryan away from me..", I burst into tears, holding the papers in my grip.He was already prepared!The passion that we felt in the car was gone now. After returning to his new mansion together, the first thing that he gave me was papers of custody of our son.I lost the ability to speak properly. In a matter of seconds, my entire world had been turned upside down. If Luca wanted Ryan alone, no way I could stop him from doing that. I was weak against his powers and influence but that didn't mean that I was going to give up easily.His voice left no room for argument," This is the best for us, Kiera. Grandpa asked to take him away to our place where he belongs. We can't do anything."I slammed those papers down, tears ran from my eyes. I blurted back in a broken voice," Never! I don't fucking care who gave this order but I can't..I can't let him go..He is my life..I gave birth to him. I raised him alone. T
|| AZRAEL DE LUCA'S POV||' I don't love him '' Ryan was a miracle '' I am going to get married soon! 'Her words kept reverberating inside my brain again and again until I felt sick inside. Maybe not physically but mentally, I was having war against strange emotions. I was nothing but an accident to her. She said them so confidently in front of those judges that it made me doubt herself. All the kisses we shared, didn't it mean anything to her?The sound of my punches kept rising with the burning rage inside me. I was using this man's face as a punching bag. He fucking dared to send threat to Matteo who went to finalize a deal to represent me.Whoever comes in my path should face death!" Stop...Luca..you will kill him..", David warned me, pushing me away from the guy who was half dead. His face was probably bleeding, his nose broke from my hard punches. David continued in a growling voice, forcing me to sit and calm down," Don't vent your rage on him! He didn't make any big mista
|| KIERA STEVENS'S POV ||His voice kept rising, earning the attention of the passerbyers. I was dumbstruck to hear the familiar voice. Walking near the window, I saw Jasper with a whiskey bottle in his hand. His hair was disheveled, buttons of his rich suit were undone.What the fuck was he doing in front of my apartment?He didn't stop there. The following moment, he began to yell those words out incoherently," Kiera...I...I ..still love..you.. please... forgive me..."Fuck..I wished that I could slap his face hard so that he would stop blabbering. One problem was already inside my house but there, another one was already standing. I didn't even know what happened to him on the last day, Anastasia came to confront me, telling me that I was seducing him. It looked like Jasper was still holding on to the past." Wow..you have gotten a lot of pursuers recently! Is it the spark of leaving my side?", Luca spoke in a stern voice, looking down from the window.I retorted weakly, feeling a
|| KIERA STEVENS'S POV || Walking on the aisle with my son was just an imaginary thought in my life. However, my wishful dream had finally come true with the help of this man who was holding the other hand of my son. He looked so handsome in his wedding suit that I could barely take my eyes off from him. He was too happy. I could feel it through his eyes. Our wedding was simple but I felt like it was the best thing that ever happened in my life. My dearest son became my ring bearer today who got big kiss from his favorite daddy for giving us the ring. Okay! I wasn't his favourite..He said the other day.. Hopefully, my twins would love me more than their brother. I was six months pregnant with a big belly. I wanted my twins to see the wedding but Luca didn't want to wait to think that something would go wrong again. I fulfilled his wish by admitting that It was okay to marry whenever he wanted. I looked at the crowd to see all my familiar faces then looked back at my man whose eyes
|| KIERA STEVENS'S POV ||4 months later......." How long are you going to stay awake? You don't even sleep at home! You will fall sick, Kiera!", Molly spoke with concern, watching me as I stared unblinking on the bed.I couldn't sleep at night. Whenever I closed my eyes, I saw him, bathing in blood all because to save me. But here, this man was torturing me more than death. 4 months had passed since Luca entered coma. Cassendra stabbed him too deep which caused his internal functions, breaking down slowly. The doctor also said that he had no chance of waking up again but I was still helpful. I was going to wait for years if it was needed. Because I loved him too much to let go of him. We had nothing to lose except each other.I smiled at Molly, standing up from the bed," I am fine, Molly. In fact, I feel lonely at home. Whenever I am close to him, I feel peace."She sighed helplessly and smiled at my decision. Thanks to her assistance, my company was doing well now. There was David
|| KIERA STEVENS'S POV ||" Don't.. don't you dare to come to me..Luca will kill you, Marcello!", I shouted at him weakly as he started to press me to a corner. After he said that he wanted to fuck me in front of everyone, Cassendra, that bitch left me alone. Those guys also dared not to stay and exited hurriedly.Marcello hussed me, peeking at the door before saying in a low voice," Don't talk too much! I am here to save you. I don't lay hands on women who belong to someone else. Anyways,you have to pretend that I have really raped you in front of them. Do you understand? Luca will be here in a minute. You must pretend that you are scared of me."I stared at him blankly, wondering why he was helping his enemy. I couldn't help but ask in a whisper," Why.. why are you helping me? I don't understand.."He shot a glare at me before instructing me," You ask too much. Ask your man if he stays alive. Now, tore apart your clothes and make yourself look like a tortured woman. Aren't you an
|| AZRAEL DE LUCA'S POV ||" IGOR!! You hate me, right? Just kill me off! Let her fucking go, Bastard!", I shouted through the speaker, Igor laughing in background. He just sent me a few pictures of Kiera where she was laying unconscious. I told her to stay near me but she went away before I could hold her back. That's how, Igor got her again.Igor laughed through the speaker, provoking me," Hiss..You look like you care for this girl too much, don't you, Luca?"I clenched my teeth hard. I wished to kill him with my own bare hands but I knew that I was putting Kiera's life at stake. So, I had to put my words carefully.I growled hard, breathing heavily," What do you want, Igor?"He sneered, gritting his words out," I wanted to kill your boy but you have hidden him too fucking well. However, I don't mind because I got your another precious thing. Your baby doll! What do I want? I want you dead, Luca! I want to see you on your knees! I want you to beg me just the way my son probably b
|| KIERA STEVENS'S POV ||" Congratulations on becoming the youngest CEO!", another CEO came to greet me at the business party. I thanked him, pretending to smile," Thank you!"I toasted the glass and drank the wine. My eyes were always looking around, searching for a familiar face subconsciously. A week had passed since my father died. After I was done with Luca, he never approached me again. I was back to my normal, trouble-less life but I was missing a part of my heart. Whenever the thought ran across my mind that I would never see him again, I felt a burn in my throat, tears blurred my painted eyes.However, it put my heart at ease that Ryan would be safe and sound. This young CEO Gary, continued to chat, spiking conversation unreasonably," I heard that you were dating, Mr.Luca. Why isn't he here with you? Honestly Kiera! I must tell you this. That man is complicated. You should find a better man who is younger like me!"I gave him a cold glance and excused myself, feeling suffo
|| AZRAEL DE LUCA'S POV ||" Kiera! Everyone is waiting for you! Why aren't you coming out!", I spoke to her in my gentlest voice that I could muster up at that moment.Kiera stood by the window silently. Mr.Stevens body was brought back to the house. The funeral arrangements were done. Everyone was waiting for her arrival only. I didn't dare to approach her as she was too quiet ever since she returned from the hospital.When she didn't give any answer, I tiptoed over to hold her but she threw my hands off as soon as I touched her," Don't!!"Her voice sounded like a cold whisper. Turning around, she stood facing me, tears pouring from her eyes. She muttered in a deadly whisper," It's all your fault!"I swallowed the lump in my throat. I almost predicted this to happen but it was too fast. I tried to comfort her," Kiera..I.. really tried..I didn't know.."" IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT, LUCA! I WISH THAT YOU NEVER APPEARED IN MY LIFE!", Kiera shouted out suddenly in hatred. Her eyes fixed on
|| AZRAEL DE LUCA'S POV ||The air smelt like blood. My surroundings were completely foggy, blocking my eyes to see through the fog. I coughed hard, smelling the gas fume which could cause nausea. I assumed that the incident had happened within just a few moments. My guards were still unaware about the attack." DAD!!!", Kiera shouted out in a cry, ran from my side to find her dad on the couch. My eyes darkened when I saw the blood, spurting from his chest. He was shot a few times, still alive but I didn't know for how long he would hold on. I quickly scanned around my eyes to find my son, called him out loud," RYAN!!! RYAN!!"My stomach scrunched in fear of seeing my son dead. His grandfather was shot which meant that he was targeted too. Either dead or alive, Ryan should be around nearby. I couldn't wait for David or my guards to appear here. Walking through the heavy layer of smoke, I strode upstairs in search of Ryan, calling him loudly on the way," Ryan! Son! Where are you? Rya
|| AZRAEL DE LUCA'S POV ||" How long have you been working as his mole?", I asked the girl in front of me who was working as the full time maid in my mansion. She was found talking in the Russian language today. No doubt, she worked for my sworn enemy.Her lips were sealed, refusing to talk but darling, I got no time to play. David was indeed my best man to understand what was going on in my mind. With a whis, he inserted the painful needles into her fingertips. The girl let out a cry, muttering some curses in the Russian language which none of us understood.These past few days have gone without any troubles. Kiera would be finally back from the academy today. I couldn't wait to fuck her hard for leaving me alone this days. Although I forced her many times to touch herself on the phone, she was too mad at me and didn't even talk for a day. When I was preparing to meet my girl and my son, this unexpected news came to me. I wondered how she managed to stay quiet until today.The girl
|| KIERA STEVENS's POV|| I loved nights in Italy. It was my second trip to this country and I was loving it already. I looked back at Luca on the bed who was fast asleep. His answer to my previous question was nothing but an intense kiss. Indirectly, he was telling me that if he wanted to hurt me, there was only one possibility that he would hurt me by loving too much. Tugging him under the blanket carefully, I tiptoed on the corridor to look at the sea ahead. Sister Ainslen's mansion was too beautiful. I heard that she liked the sea the most. So, Luca bought this mansion for her which was very close to the sea. Standing in the corridor, I spotted David in the distance who was facing the sea probably smoking. I had curiosity regarding his intentions with sister Ainslen. I had to figure it out. So, I walked forward to him, knowing that Luca wasn't going to wake up so soon. " David...", I called him, standing behind him to see him, throwing the cigarette away quickly. He bowed at me s
