As the small triangular box moved like a sideward lift, and we were like tuna in a can inside, Martin and his men remained vigilant. Levi and my men were also gazing at them sharply with their guns on their sides. "Hide your guns, guys!" I told them. They were adamant, but I firmly gave them a stern gaze. "These aren't our real enemies!" "Yet!" Levi violently uttered. "Oh! You wanna challenge here, dog?!" Enzo was pissed. The two were on a death stare since the gu. the shooting had begun. "C'mon, give me what you've got, Bratva!" he spouted, making the rest of my boys prepare for a fighting stance. "You do d*mn well know, we just saved your lives, amigos!" Roman, the most calm among them, was also trying his best to control his urge to hit one of Martin's men. "How well do you know those as*holes aren't after you?!" The black guy, whose name was Patrick, sneered. "Nico's Diamond Mob aren't after the Bratva, I'd!ot. They are after her!" Maxim pointed at Dakota, who sudde
Dakota POV . . Martin and his men brought me to his mansion. He immediately carried me bridal style when he noticed my legs were still staggering. I was so bold telling these men I wasn't scared to die, but upon hearing the gunshot, the memory of how my parents passed away came back to life at the back of my head. "Stay here for a while. It is safe here. Aside from Luke, there will be five, and one of them is a woman to guard you. Wait here, okay?!" he was about to leave when I grabbed his hand. "What's the matter?" he asked, concerned. I just shook my head and couldn't utter any words at all. "Sweetheart, I will just check outside!" he explained, but I still didn't want him to leave. "Babe, please stay. Don't go!" I told him, beseeching. I was sitting on the edge of the bed in his room. Martin sighed deeply and took the phone from his pocket. "Check the area. Make sure the mansion is safe. Call Charice and the rest of our men at the club. From now on, they're going to guar
Shantel POV . . He was hot. He was hot as f*ck! "Hmm, that was refreshing!" I spread both of my hands on the bed while he rolled beside me. We were both gasping, exhausted after that incredible s*x we just had. "So, what makes my lady upset?" He asked, sneering while staring at me. He was lying on his side, his arm in a crook, head propped on his hand. "Don't call me that!" I snapped him right away. "Always remember that our thing isn't real. We both enjoy s*x, and I can't get it with my fiance, so I am doing it with you!" He had to know his place. He was only here for my release. "Yeah! I know. Still. I have the liberty to call you, my lady!" He caressed my cheek with his hand, and I slapped it at once. He just chuckled at my upset look. "Don't tell me, you already disgust these fingers that gave your p*ssy some pleasures earlier!" "Shvt the h*ll up, Arnold!" I got up clenching the duvet tight to cover my nakedness, but he just pulled it away, revealing my bare body
Dakota POV . . "I'm bored!" I complained while changing the channels of the TV in the living room. I was sitting alone here on this luxurious five-seater Italian leather couch. There were three kinds of snacks on the table that were meant for my stomach, but I only tasted a bit of each. "Life of the well-off is killing me!" I whined in the air. "Miss Weasly!" Mariana called me from the entrance of the dining room. I just glanced at her, then turned the channel to a boring talk show. "Do you like to go out for a while?" She asked, excited. "Like where Mariana? Martin told me to stop going out for a while. Also, I don't want to go out with lots of people following me!" I stomped my feet on the marmoleum floor, making Mariana smile. "Then how about let's find something to do in the mansion? By the way, what is your hobby?" I lifted my head, thinking about my dead hobbies. "Hmm, aside from designing clothes, I like horseback riding and karate!" My eyes gleamed at the idea o
YVAN / HARRY POV . . I had been drinking here at the bar for almost three hours now. I escaped the company of my gang for a while to bask in the glory of being alone. Since Dakota had left with Martin last week, I was a mess. I tried everything that I could do to keep myself tied up, to forget about her. However, everything seemed to be going to waste as always! "F*ck!" I roared. The people around me glanced in my direction. The bar was not the normal bar where drunk people would actually spend their time and be crazy with the ear-deafening sound of the music. This bar was different. It was quiet and only a few customers were inside. "More brandy, boss?!" The bartender asked while wiping a glass on the counter. I nodded my head and raised my index while holding an empty glass of brandy. "Here!" He poured a new glass and put it in front of me. "It's on the house!" He added, smiling. My glassy eyes smiled back at this, in my observation, teenage bartender. "Aren't you
Yvan/Harry POV . . I had been thinking about what to do with the beauty in front of me. It had been almost an hour since I came into her room, and she hadn't finished taking a shower yet. Until a devilish plan came up in my drunk thoughts. I hastily took off my clothes and entered the bathroom. Due to the sound of water, the naked lady couldn't hear me coming in. Aside from that, she was singing nonstop. It hurt my ears, but I focused on the curves in the right places, standing in front of me. I was already out of my mind, not thinking of the consequences of my actions. She would never know me, I told myself. So, before she would turn around, I had already grabbed her. I clamped her mouth with my palm and wrapped my strong hand around her flat tummy. "Hmp!" She whimpered and struggled, but I was too strong, she couldn't move at all. "Scream, and you'll die!" I whispered in her ears, and she stopped moving. "Let me taste you, my love!" I began nibbling her collarbone, the
Chatny POV . . The h*ll this as*hole had the nerve to insult me after f*cking me. Who did he think he was? And what the h*ck was he doing in this motel, in this place, in this countryside? I was here simply trying to escape from Shantel, who had been bossing me around. I had a great life in Italy. My job as a fashion model was doing well until my sister dragged me into this freak show she and my father started. If only she didn't have something that could blackmail me, I would never obey her. Shantel and I may be sisters, but we were water and fire. We couldn't get along. She was the businesswoman and the brain in the family, I was the cheerful, easy-go-lucky one. I was the wallflower in the Zaborowski mansion; never noticed, never cared, but always there. "Miss, we are here!" My Lady guard arrived just in time. She was with another guy, who acted as my driver and bodyguard. "Please get rid of him. Throw him outside or in the trash, I don't care!" I pointed at Yvan, w
Dakota POV . . It had been weeks since I had never spoken to Martin since I found out he also f*cked that female member of his gang. Also, it had been a week since I had never seen him in person. He was always with that Shantel. "Hello, Miss Weasly!" Mariana called me from the kitchen. "What brought you here?!" She was cutting some carrots on the island. "Drop the 'Miss Weasly' Mariana. I told you many times that you can simply call me Dakota!" I sighed, making Mariana glance at me and her face form a thin smile. I took one baby carrot and crunched it in my mouth while staring at the different vegetables on the island. "You are cooking a lot for the evening!" I shifted my glance at her. She continued chopping the baby carrots while her smile was glued on her gentle-looking face. "Don't you know? Boss will come home this evening. He told Luke about it. Luke told me to prepare his favorite!" "Hmm, I see!" Nonchalantly, I just shrugged my shoulders and sat on one of the to
