I woke up with the sun blinding my vision as it streamed through the curtains. I spotted an alarm clock on the bedside table and frowned when I saw that it was already past ten am.

I turned around and found that the bed was empty beside me.

Why did no one wake me up?

I carefully climbed out of bed and pursed my lips together at the pain between my legs. I smiled to myself before excitedly pacing about the room.

Memories of the previous night flooded my mind. I bit down on my bottom lip to keep myself from squealing excitedly. I looked at my naked form in the mirror and found hickeys on my neck and shoulders. Mateo's fingerprints tattooed my waist.

I was consumed by butterflies at the mere thought of him.

I opened his closet and grabbed one of his shirts from it along with a pair of shorts that I found in one of his drawers.

I searched the room for my phone and found it on the bedside table. I frowned when I saw a note lying next to it.

I grabbed the piece of paper before carefull

  • His Ruthless Pursuit   The Assassin

    I suspiciously eyed the grey-haired woman in front of me. She seemed so kind and harmless just a few minutes ago. Turns out she was sent here to kill me. "Who do you work for?" I asked Martha. God, I don't even know if her real name is Martha. "I don't know. I'm an assassin. Well, I used to be. The bottom line is I prefer not to know my clients. This one was no different; he called me, sent me your information, made the payment, and now I'm here." She uttered and I looked at her in disbelief. An elderly assassin, I never thought I'd see the day. "You tried to kill me," I uttered in disbelief. "But I didn't. Besides, my client gave me a choice. It was either you or Mila and since I don't kill children, I chose to kill you." She openly admitted and my heart dropped. "But- for the first time since I started doing this job, I couldn't go through with it. Usually, my targets are rich assholes, murderers, ex-cons, you name it. But they're never kind." She admitted while staring deep

    Mateo I gripped the ice-cold steel weapon in my hand in anger before cocking it. "Martha?" I called her and her head whipped up. "Remove her gag," I told Rafe and he nodded before complying. "Please, please don't kill me!" She begged and I frowned at her. "Martha, who exactly do you think you're dealing with here?" I calmly asked her with a light frown on my forehead. "Someone sent me here to kill your wife! I know exactly who you are because I did my homework," she stated so I harshly pressed my gun into her skull. "And yet you still came into my territory, tried to kill my wife and daughter! And now you want me to spare your life?" I asked her in disbelief. "I know I've disrespected you, mi Salvador." She started and I rolled my eyes at her. "Kill her," I told Rafe. "No! Wait," she hissed out and Rafe and I both frowned at her. "Spit it out, lady!" Rafe impatiently uttered and Martha carefully looked up into my eyes. "Cara. The woman's name who gave me th

  • His Ruthless Pursuit   Traitor

    After dinner, I stood on the balcony with a scarf wrapped around my arms. Mateo's men finally found the suitcase I packed for Mila in Tiago's car and brought it to the house. Luckily I packed a few outfits for myself. I curiously looked around me before frowning lightly. This house is sort of old and abandoned, but it's strangely been growing on me; Mila likes it here, too. Mateo put her to bed earlier. It's good that they're spending more time together. I can tell how much they both need it. Mila's blood sugar has been looking good, too, these past few days. I was so worried that she might get another seizure... She means the world to me and if anything ever happened to her- "Ahem," someone cleared their throat, interrupting my thoughts and I frowned before turning around to see who it was. I was surprised to find Rafe standing behind me. He sized me up from head to toe before he took the spot next to me,

  • His Ruthless Pursuit   My Fault

    I watched as one of Mateo's men burned our phones through the window of the car we were sitting in. We made a quick pitstop and pulled over on the side of the road. Mila doesn't know it yet, but her iPad was in that pile. It's important so nobody can find our location but she won't be too happy when she finds out. All twenty of Mateo's men will go back home while we go to the safe house. We were quietly sitting in Mateo's car, Rafe was sitting behind the steering wheel, and Mila had rested her head on Mateo's lap earlier and fell asleep that way; her beautiful long curls completely covered her face like a blanket. I removed my gaze from her and curiously looked up at Mateo. I caught him staring at me, the look on his face almost unreadable. He seems suspicious of me. He hasn't said much to me since we left the house either. "What happened to Martha? Why is she not here?" I curiously asked Mateo who held a blank expression on his face as he shrugged at me in response. "Martha

    "Hera?" Tiago called me in concern. All I could think about was Mateo and that goddamn conversation he had over the phone. "Are you okay?" Tiago asked for the third time, I shook my head at him in response."I just- I don't know if I can trust Mateo anymore. He's been lying to me right from the start, Tiago. I trusted him, and I started falling for him again. I wanted him back, Tiago- and he just hurt me, he lied to me and he cheated on me like it was nothing!" I started crying, and Tiago wrapped one of his arm around me in a comforting manner."I heard him talking to someone over the phone three days ago, and I tried to hold it together as best as I could, but I can't do it anymore," I sobbed out. "It really hurts and God knows I tried Tiago- I really tried." I cried out and he hugged me again. "I'm sorry," he softly uttered. "Just- let it out." He said and I cried my heart out because it was all I could do. "I hate him, Tiago," I wh

    Tiago successfully managed to get back inside the house without getting himself shot, Rafe and Mila followed shortly after. Mateo was still outside fighting alongside our men. "The garage!" Rafe yelled before sprinting toward the garage and we all followed suit. As we entered the garage, the sound of gunshots became louder, and Mila desperately held onto Rafe. We were all relieved to find Leonardo's old Mustang still in the garage. Rafe grabbed the keys off the wall before unlocking the doors. Tiago got in on the passenger seat while I jumped in on the backseat. Rafe started the engine with ease, we waited for the garage door to open and drove out of it at the speed of lightning. The gunshots became louder and louder until we were about a mile away from the house. "Is everyone okay?" I asked in concern and they all mumbled out a "yes," which made me let out a soft breath of relief. "Mila, are you

    "Hera! Where's Hera? Where is your doña?" I heard an angered voice screaming my name. A light frown settled on my forehead once my eyes rested on a woman, seemingly my age. "I'm here." I calmly uttered and she angrily came storming at me. A few gasps filled the room when the woman raised her hands at me, and as she was about to hit me, I grabbed ahold of her wrist. "My husband is dead because of you. You bitch!" She angrily yelled at me. "Solidad? Are you trying to get yourself killed? You're talking to the doña, not one of your friends.""I know who I'm talking to and this bitch didn't deserve Chris's loyalty! She's a traitor to this mafia and everyone in it! She shot the don, for the love of God, and you guys are standing here, kissing her ass. You're all just like her, that's why you still call her your doña. My Chris was too good for you. All of you!" She angrily yelled at us. "You're right, I didn't deserve his loyalty. But I did

Rafe suddenly entered my office, the sound of the door waking me from my trance."Aurellia- are you sure it was her?" I asked Rafe and he nodded at me but I could tell that it was eating him alive. "You ordered us to go check the pantry. Well there was blood on the freezer. I opened the- freezer and found her lying inside. They shot her three times, Mateo. And Mila- she must've seen it happen-" he uttered so I pulled him into a hug. He started sobbing into my shirt and I bit back tears of my own. "Listen to me Salvador men don't cry." I told him before flaring my nostrils in anger. "We take action and we avenge those that we have lost at the hands of our enemies." I angrily told him. "I will kill the man who did this, his entire family and mafia if that's what it takes. But I will avenge my cousin's life." I promised him. "Do what you have to do, Rafe. Once y

    I parked behind an abandoned warehouse before jumping out of my car. I placed my hand on my gun, but I knew I couldn't take it out yet, in case I was being watched.I walked into the abandoned building, my footsteps loudly echoing throughout the empty room. This place is like a maze; if I don't stay focused, I could easily get lost in here. I walked straight ahead until I saw a dark figure in the distance. It looked like a man hanging from the ceiling. Once I recognized him as Tiago I ran to him. I knelt in front of him before taking his pale face into my hands. "Are you okay?" I asked without expecting an answer. My eyes scanned over the chains he was hanging from before getting back up to my feet. I grabbed my gun before aiming it at the chains, but as I was about to pull the trigger, the sound of slow clapping caught my attention.

    "What do you mean Tiago is gone?" I asked Rafe in confusion. "He disappeared last night. God knows where he went." Rafe said before scratching the back of his head. "Have you tried calling his mom? Maybe he went home. He's still injured." I uttered in concern. "I did, she says she hasn't seen him since we got back." He answered and a deep frown settled on my forehead. "Should I be worried?" I genuinely wanted to know and his jaw clenched. "At the moment, yes. People have been treating us differently lately." He stated and I frowned at him. "You mean, they don't respect us anymore," I uttered and he just silently stared at me. "All I'm saying is that Santiago is an easy target at the moment and I'm sure he has his enemies, as we all do," Rafe uttered before lightly scratching his chin. "What did Mateo say? Are you guys gonna go looking for him?" I asked Rafe who shook his head at me. "No, Tiago is no longer part of our mafia. Not after all the shit that went do

    I stood in Mateo's warm embrace, my eyes filled with tears. He kept holding me, placing kisses on my head but this feeling just wouldn't go away. It stuck to me like bubblegum to the bottom of a shoe."Mateo, what's taking them so long? They've been in there for 30 minutes. I want to see my daughter." I uttered while pleadingly looking up into his eyes. "They're almost done," he uttered in a gentle tone and I wrapped my arms around him. I heard the door opening behind us so I swung around before rushing into the room. I picked Mila up into my arms and she tightly held onto me. There was life in her eyes again. She didn't seem as shocked as she did before, and she hugged me back. I placed her on the ground before taking her face into my hands. "Mila, are you okay?" I asked in a gentle tone and she nodded at me with a small smile on her face. "What happened?" I asked and she just quietly stared at me. The doctor cleared his throat so I turned to face him.

    WARNING: SEXUAL CONTENT!After my fifth orgasm, Mateo roughly placed me on top of him. He gripped my wrists in one hand behind my back while the other hand tightly pressed me against him.He pushed his cock deep into my pussy before slamming into my throbbing hole at the speed of light. Our ragged breaths mingled as I placed a kiss on his lips. The sound of our skins touching and my moans suddenly became the only sound in the room. Mateo hit my ass, surely leaving a mark behind, and the sound echoed through the room. I broke our kiss when I felt another orgasm nearing. Mateo's muscles flexed beneath me, and he held a firm grip on my waist. I felt him shooting his seed deep inside my pussy and I let out a loud moan as I started clenching around him. He slowly pulled out of me and my legs tiredly shook at the impact of my orgasm. Mateo grabbed my ass in his hand, his thick cock grazing my clit as I lay on top of him. "Tell me-" he uttered before adjusting himself beneath me, "do yo
