His Steel Princess (His Broken Princess #2) 82. Meet my Uncle
COLEI was getting exactly what I wanted but still there was a feeling similar to disappointment that filled me somehow and as I looked at her beautiful face, I wondered why.Apart from that one condition that she just put, everything was going my way and still— “What are we going to do now?” She asked, her blue eyes peering up at me. “I mean...about the girl you were supposed to get engaged to?” I smiled, cupped her cheek and brushed a soft kiss on her lips. She frowned at me, looking adorable in her confusion. “Cole?”“Hmm?”“I asked—““You are still here. Everyone is looking for you.” One of my twin sisters entered. Aria in her red dress, who was here not too long ago when Violet had interrupted us.And just like then, Violet stiffened by my side. Her shoulders tensing, she stepped in front of me and started, “He is not—”I squeezed her fingers and tugged her back. My princess turned to look at me with narrowed gaze and her jaw clenched as the infamous Carter anger surfaced in her

VIOLETCole grabbed my hand and tugged me to meet his uncle. The uncle who had been a mystery until now and someone who wanted Cole to marry to someone else. “W-what if your uncle doesn’t like me? I mean, you said he wanted you to marry into an influential family, right?” I asked, my mind going back to the conversation between his parents and him on that dinner when it was clear his uncle was the absolute authority in his family.“Right.” The sharp accented voice had me freezing and I could almost feel my skin icing over as I sensed someone coming up behind me. “And, yet here you are. Because apparently love is more important that family legacy and my own expectations.”“Zio, per favore, non cominciare adesso." Uncle, please, don’t start now. Cole stepped beside me, his arm coming around my waist as I slowly turned to face his uncle. The uncle I have heard so much about but never met or talked to. The few times I had asked Cole about his uncle, he had been reluctant to talk about him
His Steel Princess (His Broken Princess #2) 84. He deserves to know
VIOLETI stood in front of the floor length mirror, staring at my reflexion. I looked beautiful, as beautiful as I could be. A beautiful bride in a white wedding gown, a stunning creation of lace and silk. The girls who had come to do my hair and makeup had gushed all over the dress when Elle and Kiara had pulled it out of the box that had come from Cole with a note that said, 'I am counting the minutes'.And, I imagined Cole waiting for me at his parents’ house, because Mom had denied for me to stay there with him when he had asked. She had said in no uncertain terms that ‘Bride and groom won’t see each other before the wedding’. But unlike everyone else who all were excited for such a shot gun wedding as Kiara called it, Dad had been a little sceptical and reluctant to agree for this sudden wedding. He had said, ‘I don’t like how you are hurrying into this, but if this is what you want then I’ll be there by your side every step you take. I just want my daughter to be happy’. And I w

VIOLET The hours until the ceremony passed in a blur of love and support from my family, shared laughter and whispered reassurances. The bridal suite, a room that Mrs Bianchi had ushered us in, buzzed with activity, a contrast to the turmoil in my mind. Even as I smiled and let their teasing wash over me, a part of me was crumbling with the weight of secret I was hiding, it felt heavy on my conscience and pulled me into the dark path of ‘what ifs' that I didn’t want to venture on.When the time came to walk down the aisle, I took a deep breath and watched as everyone left the room one by one except Mom. She had tears in her blue eyes as she let her eyes travel down me. “You have come a long way, sweetheart. And I am so proud of you.” I bit down on my bottom lip, trying hard not to sob as I had already cried so many times when Mad, Dom, Brandon and Kiara had become sentimental out of nowhere. I was glad that Alex and Scar had chosen not to add to more of these emotional words and i

I want to wear his initial on a chain ‘round my neck, not because he owns me. But ‘cause he really knows me. ~ Taylor Swift.VIOLET“What are you doing?!” I squeaked as Cole entered his bedroom and slammed the door shut behind him. When he finally put me down, I opened my mouth to demand answers but he didn’t give me a chance to as he wrapped his hand around my throat and pulled me close for a hungry open mouthed kiss. I let him consume me, melting into the kiss and falling into his warmth, as he kissed me so deeply and thoroughly that it left me dazed.He rested his forehead against mine and his lips moved over mine as he whispered, “My princess. My wife. Mine.”Now, I was the one who wrapped my arms around him and kissed him. He smiled into the kiss. And as he picked me up, my legs automatically went around him. He laid me down on the bed and climbed over me. My eyes went to the bedroom door and sanity knocked back. I said, “What are you doing? It’s our wedding! People are—”“Peop

It was only when you came into my life that I realised it was worth living. ~ A. Gupta.VIOLET VIOLET“Whatever my wife wants.”I watched, anticipation filling my chest as he slipped out of his suit jacket. Next came off his waistcoat. Slowly, he started to unbutton his shirt, never taking his eyes off me and I felt warm heat taking hold of me as he unceremoniously threw it aside. And as his broad chest came into view, I couldn’t help but let my gaze roam all over him, his bronzed skin made my fingertips itch to caress every inch of him. And then my eyes travelled down his muscular torso to his hands that were now resting on his belt, and an involuntary noise left my lips to which he chuckled. “So impatient, my princess.”I shook my head. “Your wife. She wants to see her husband and put her mark on you, and then make you hers.”“Fûck.” He groaned. And then without wasting any time, he unbuckled himself, shucked off his pants and got nakéd in front of me.I sat back on my haunches, l

I found a dream that I could speak to,A dream that I could call my own. ~ Etta James.Third Person POVIn the ballroom where the reception party was being held, the Carter brothers and their better halves stood in a circle. Dom was the first one who said, “Well, I can’t believe it really happened. Our beautiful little Violet got married to Cole finally.”Mad’s blue eyes met his brothers one by one and a smile crossed his lips. “Yeah, who’d have thought.” A look that showed that he was thinking about past crossed his face and he said, “Almost four years ago when I met Cole, I never thought he’d be like one of us and that I’ll ever see Violet again, after...” He trailed off, his arm tightening around his wife on instinct, seeking her warmth at the reminder of his dark and cold past.Brandon squeezed his shoulder, knowing when his brother was getting emotional. “Everything happens for a reason. And at the end it’s always for the best.”“Yup. Definitely.” Kiara joined, her chirpy voice

COLEMy hands are shaking. I noticed absently as I waited for the elevator doors to open. My heart felt like it was heavy with a weight that seemed too painful to take. The call I received wasn’t one I was ready for, especially on my wedding day. On the day I promised myself to the woman I love. But then the woman I was here for was the one I had once loved, she had been the reason because of whom I met my princess. The hospital corridors that I had walked on so many times seemed to stretch out in front of me forever, the white linoleum tiles made my eyes ache. And by the time I came to stand in front of the room that I had been in countless times before, I was blank, my emotions on a standstill.Taking a deep breath, I opened the door and as I stepped in, the stark reality of the hospital environment clashed with the warmth of the celebration of my wedding that I just left, a harsh juxtaposition that mirrored the abrupt shift in my world. My eyes instantly went to the bed, but it w

TWISTED MARRIAGE: MMF Dark Mafia Romance Novel. .INNESSA“Nina!” I ignored my little sister, Mila's, call as I rushed out of the ballroom where the party for my eighteenth birthday was going on. Or, should I say the celebration for my upcoming nuptials. Even the thought of that made me want to vomit. Since the moment the Capo of the major crime family: Rossi, had died my father had lost all his privileges and power in the underworld. He had been trying all these years to get back the power and position he once had, but the current Capo: Antonio Rossi didn’t seem inclined to get cosy with anyone his father once associated with. Rumor even has it that he was the one who actually kîlled his own father when he was just a child himself. Sometimes, I wonder if he could teach me a thing or two about it because if I knew how to get out of it I’d commit patricîde in my next breath. What? Don’t look at me like that. My father deserves it, if you knew him you’d say the same thing. He is the
His Steel Princess (His Broken Princess #2) BONUS CHAPTER
Bonus chapterCOLEI stood by the glass doors and watched as my princess introduced our son, Romeo, to everyone in the Carter family. Our son. Now every time I look at him, I feel what I know Violet must’ve felt that first time when she’d seen him. It has been four months since he became a part of our family. Four months since we became parents. And only three months since Romeo started to call me Papa and started treating me as his father. I wasn’t too proud to lie and say that I didn’t hug my wife and cried happy tears in her arms the first time I heard the word papa from Romeo. The little boy was ruling not only mine and my wife’s heart, but everyone else’s in the family. Even Uncle Nico was doting on him more than he ever did on me. Surprisingly he didn’t take as much time with uncle Nico as he did with me to get comfortable with. It was my beautiful wife, my princess, who built his trust in me day after day and taught me how to earn his trust. The first two weeks were hard. Ro
His Steel Princess (His Broken Princess #2) EPILOGUE II
EPILOGUE IIA YEAR LATER....VIOLET“Are you ready to go?” I looked at my husband and gave him a reluctant nod. We were at the shelter that the church ran. The buildings were joined together by a backdoor. And since last year when I had come here for the first time on our first Christmas together as husband and wife, I had liked it so much here that every time we came back from New York we came visit the kids. Now, this church and the shelter was part of our life as much as it was Nicolai’s, even though it was the first time that he hadn’t been able to come here on Christmas. The sisters specifically asked for him and showed their disappointment at learning that he wasn’t joining us. It was kind of crazy to think that a man who I had once witness covered in blôod from head to toe, that still gives me flashbacks every time I see him, was so revered by these people of God. “Come on, princess. It’s getting late. The children need to go to their beds.” My husband was right, but in all
His Steel Princess (His Broken Princess #2) EPILOGUE I
I have died every day waiting for youDarling, don't be afraid I have loved you for a thousand years. I'll love you for a thousand more.~ A Thousand years..A MONTH LATER....VIOLETI woke up to an empty bed but a little note waited on my husband’s pillow. I picked it up and as I read his scrawled message, a smile lit up my face. ‘Good morning, princess. Come downstairs whenever you're ready. The twins are already making a racket. I had to go down before they set the house on fire. I love you.’Today’s going to be another good day, or maybe a better one because my husband wasn’t the only one who was stuffing our closet with presents he didn't think I knew anything about. I slipped out of the bed and made my way to the bathroom, deciding to get ready before going downstairs because by what Cole had shared, between the twins and his mother, maybe I won’t get another chance to get dressed up for tonight’s dinner. Our very first Christmas dinner as husband and wife.When I got downsta

COLEViolet removed the makeshift blindfold and as soon as I opened my eyes I came face to face with... My own reflection. But no, that would be too tame a comparison to what I look like in a mirror. It actually was how my princess saw me. The painting dominated the white wall. And as I looked at it, I was amazed and in awe. With each stroke of the brush, my princess had captured a side of me that I didn’t even know existed. I remembered the moment when she must’ve gotten the inspiration for this one. I was in the pool, looking up at her as she laid there on the chaise. My arms were folded beneath my chin, my eyes squinting a little because of the sun high up in the sky shining down on us.And the way she had captured me, my features in exquisite detail, it didn’t hide the fact that I was in love with the person I was looking at. I never thought that I could be someone’s muse, that I’ll ever be able to inspire such breath-taking artwork in someone. But my princess, not only fell in l
His Steel Princess (His Broken Princess #2) 105. A surprise
VIOLETI was happy.No. That’s not right. We were happy. Impossibly so.More than I ever thought I could be, with the man that I loved with my whole heart. The man who loved me like I was the sole purpose of his life. Three weeks has passed and we were still in Italy, and to be honest, I didn’t want to leave. It was everything I could ever dream about. Turns out, I was dreaming for something I already had in my grasp. Living with Cole in Italy, in the bungalow at the corner of the city it felt like we were in our own separate heaven away from the world and it’s expectations, also away from the things that made me think that I was missing something from my life when I was already whole with him. It became our sanctuary, a place where time seemed to stand still and the worries of the world faded away.We had spent our days roaming around the city, taking pleasure in each other’s company and the sights we visited. Rome was really beautiful, alive with its energy. It’s ancient monuments
His Steel Princess (His Broken Princess #2) 104 So fûcking beautiful
VIOLETI stared at my husband as he pulled on his suit jacket while standing in front of the floor length mirror. I was on the bed, lacing my heels but the picture my handsome husband painted was way to appealing to miss for anything. He looked edible enough to eat in the black shirt and black slacks. We were getting ready to go for dinner in the city with his uncle and as much as I wanted to rest and sleep for a bit to get rid of the jetlag I wanted to go out into the city more. “My eyes are up here, princess.”With a smile curving my lips, I looked up to meet his sherry eyes as he turned around to face me. I pursed my lips and with a teasing tone replied, “But that tushie is too impressive to not appreciate it.”“Is it, now?” He murmured as he walked toward me. I nodded and smiled when he brushed a kiss on my cheek and then crouched down in front of me to tie the laces of my heels.When he looked up, I cupped his cheeks and kissed him slowly. We hadn’t had séx for obvious medical r

VIOLETWe landed in Italy and was welcomed by the warm embrace of the Mediterranean sun, its golden rays casted a luminous glow upon everything it touched. I watched my beautiful husband as he talked to the man who had approached us as soon as we had stepped down out on the tarmac. I held a bouquet of exotic flowers, courtesy of my husband’s uncle, a welcome to his country. But even those beautiful flowers didn’t hold my attention as my gaze went back to my husband as he made his way toward us and I saw the sun glittering in his brown eyes, reminding me all the time he had been the light in my darkness. I took notice of the way his shoulders were relaxed and the pleasant smile that curved his lips and I knew that coming here was the best decision. As he drew closer, he held up the keys. “I guess my uncle decided to ignore our wish to refuse his gifts.”I arched a brow. “What's that?” He grabbed my hand and said, “Let’s see.” We walked off the runway. The man following us with our

VIOLETA nervous energy hummed beneath my skin. It was the first time I was going to fly in a plane. And not just any ordinary plane. We were going to Italy in one of his Uncle’s jet and it appeared bigger than the usual one. I had heard him talking to his uncle on a video call. Cole had denied his uncle’s offer and mentioned that we could fly business class but his uncle had pushed. Cole had said, “But, seriously, I’d rather not have my wife in that jet where you spent your days partying and doing God knows what not.”“I haven’t touched that thing in so long.” Came his uncle’s accented reply.“Seriously? How long was that?” My husband had asked sceptically. “Four months?”I had almost laughed out loud at that but then I'd silently nodded at Cole to agree, as since our loss his uncle has been trying to cheer us up by doing things in his own way. He sent us a custom made Aston Martin and a Ferrari, for god sake. Apparently his uncle has so much money that a few hundred millions were p
