Natalia's POV:

10:33 AM

I stretched out on the bed, feeling the muscles on my back ache as my joints made a cracking sound. My hand reached blinding for the spot beside me and I'm met with nothing but cool linen sheets.

Oh shoot, he really did leave last night.

My eyes fluttered open and I rose slowly into a sitting position, the little ache between my legs was a subtle reminder of what had transpired last night. From the way he'd devoured my lips to how hard he'd fucked me. It was so fucking perfect.

My stomach flipped as a small smile tugged on my lips and as quickly as it came, I wiped it off my lips.

Why the hell was I smiling? What for exactly?

It was just sex, hot freaking good sex. Nothing more. It was more like a beneficial transaction between us. I remain his mistress and he let me live ‘freely.’ And that was it.

‘Don't go falling for the man, Natalia.’ The small voice in my head warned.

Fall for Carlo? Pfft.

I shook my head, kicking back the covers, exposing my naked bo

    Natalia's POV: BANG! Right before my eyes, one of our guards dropped to the floor, blood oozing from somewhere around his head. His eyes opened, cold and void of life. He was dead. A pit opened in my stomach. No, no, no, no. This wasn't happening. My heart was like a battering ram in my chest, threatening to break from my ribs and leap onto the floor. Everything happened so fast as one of our guards immediately pulled out his weapon while the other three formed a human shield around us with their guns out too. “Get in the van!” One of them shouted and instincts took over as my trembling hands grabbed the handles of Angela’s wheelchair. Fear flashed on her expression, her pale face mirroring mine. “Oh lord, why is this happening,” she muttered shakily under her breath as I tried my hardest to help her inside the van without trembling for one second, I'd done it successfully, moving it up the slide out ramp. And then I lost my balance, tripping backwards, my hands slipped from

    CHAPTER EIGHTY Carlo's POV: As soon as I left Natalia behind in my room, the smile on my face dropped, my mask of pretense slipping away as something dark replaced it. Sure, I had fun teasing her. I mean I was glad she was safe— I was glad? The fuck is wrong with my head? It didn't matter, not right now. What mattered was the fact that they had been ambushed. I say ‘ambushed’ because these fuckers knew my sister had an appointment at that hospital. They knew the time and date! Merda! This was driving me nuts! They had gone too far this time but who were they? I flung the door to my office open, striding in to find Enzo and the fools that had accompanied my sister and Natalia to the hospital. These good for nothings couldn't even catch at least one person who we could use as a scapegoat and trace back their leaders. “Don, they had masks on, and they shot from a distance we couldn't tell who they were or who they worked for.” One of my guards said, with his

    Carlo’s POV: “What the fuck is this?” I demanded, glaring hard at my archenemy as he walked through the door like he owned the place. My blazing eyed darted back to Alfredo who seemed so very proud of himself. “Why is Gianpaolo here, Alfredo?” “Oh, sorry, don,” he said, not looking any bit sorry about this. “I forgot to inform you that we have all agreed to welcome Gianpaolo back into the inner circle.” Anger flared inside me, my body trembled with it. “Behind my back? Who is in charge here?!” “You, don, you of course. But you see, we have rules and if a leader doesn't follow them, it's our right to deal with the problems however we deem fit.” My attention drifted back to Gianpaolo who had a big grin on his face as he dropped into the seat across from me. There'd been am extra seat… how didn't I notice that earlier. These fucking bastards were really testing me. My lips curled up in a sneer as my eyes moved from one man to the next. “So bringing back the very man I banished fo

    Carlo's POV: “Quick reflex,” I said to Enzo as we slipped into my car. “Good job.” He nodded, gripping the steering wheels tighter. “It was necessary.” “It sure was.” From the corner of my eyes, I could see the frustration rolling off him in waves. “Those fuckers are getting more desperate. Bringing Gianpaolo back into the circle, after what he'd done? Ridiculous.” Agreed. Gianpaolo had been sent out of the circle because he'd deceived us in the past and had made a deal with a rival because of greed so it was his punishment; to leave. And now he they were bringing him back just to rebel against me? And Gianpaolo? Thinking he could challenge me because for some unknown reason they'd all decided to take his side. Pfft. As if I gave a fuck about any of them. I wasn't scared of them, could wage a war and wipe out everyone but we all knew how that would end… A leader without people to rule over. All I needed was to put them in their place but in the meantime. “W

    Natalia's POV: The past four days had been weird. The good kind, actually. Maybe.I dunno. Just, Carlo's been different, okay? Not his usual annoying self. Which was… good.These days he made it his mission to check up on me, making sure I didn't move my injured arm in the wrong way. He'd also spend time with me—though it was usually in silence… but still.And I was beginning to think I could trust him enough to let him know about my fake father, Antonio’s letter, to let Carlo know I was still looking for my real parents.No. I shook my head, kicking against the idea as Alessandro's warnings flashed in my mind. That letter had subtly warned me about telling Carlo. But what toes could Carlo possibly have about my past? It made no sense.But I really really needed to know my real parents, even though I was no longer desperate to escape this place. Maybe I had to go back crawling to Alessandro for help. Was it worth it? Maybe… maybe not. Guess I'd figure something out later but I wa

    Natalia's POV: “Hey, Nat.”I shot to my feet in an instance, eyes wide, jaw hanging loose. “Tanya?!” I gasped taking in my best friend.No. Freaking. Way.Oh my God!I darted across the room, running into her outstretched arms as the shock finally wore off. She caught me, hugging me back tightly, like her life depended on me, burying her nose in my neck.And as if on cue, we both started sobbing, it was tears of joy. Letting it all out.He'll, I'd missed her so much. She was the only family I had beside Ava, when she noticed my dad was an asshole, she forced her way into my life.Back in middle school, I didnt keep friends—hard to do so when you were bullied for being dirt poor and wearing worn out clothes all the time. But Tanya didn't give up on me, not when I'd been rude to her because I wanted to protect myself. More tears streamed down my cheeks when the memory of the first day she'd started bringing extra lunch to school just for me flashed in my mind.From then on, she'd shar

Truth is… I stopped staying there two days ago when I'd finally been able to get out of bed and the pain meds didn't weigh me down anymore.But he'd missed dinner and I needed to talk to him about what happened today….. In fact, so many things.What was happening between us? Why did it constantly feel like there'd been a shift? I pushed his door open with my good arm and slipped in. The place was dark, quiet, so I just flicked on the beside lamp and I dropped down of his soft, enormous bed.I think I waited quiet a bit, already drifting into sleep when he arrived. “It's almost midnight,” he said, startled as he closed the door behind him. “Why are you here? In my room?” I shrugged. “You let me stay here most of the time anyway, so, no biggie. However, I need to speak to you about something?” “And it couldn't wait until tomorrow?” His brows knitted together as he started to unbutton the cuff

    Carlo's POV: Walking away from her, when her desire was so obvious and raw, was a test of will.My cock throbbed in my pants, straining painfully against the zipper it made breathing almost impossible. Almost.The bathroom door clicked shut behind me and I quickly shed off my shirt and pants. My cock sprang free, slapping against my abdomen as I tugged off my boxer briefs. Cazzo! She got me so damn hard for her. Tonight, something about her had been different. She had seemed bolder, more daring and definitely wanted me as badly as I did want her.Was it because of the surprise? Had her behavior been a way to show her gratitude? Well, I couldn't tell…I knew it was reckless bringing her best friend over and Enzo had tried and failed to talk me out of it, but I needed her to know that I meant every word I'd said when we made that deal.I needed her to trust me because… because I didn't want her to keep trying to run away… I… I wanted her to stay…Madre!

    CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & TWENTY-NINE:Natalia's POV: My stomach was in painful knots as the doctor led us to his room. My hands felt clammy, and my legs felt weak but I kept moving. According to the doctor, we weren't allowed to see him yet but we could just take a glance through the windows and that was okay for me for now, I guess.I don't know if Carlo noticed my uneasiness; his hand squeezed mine a bit tighter, as if grounding me and I was grateful for it.We got to the window and I couldn't hold back the single tear that rolled down my cheek as a small gasp pushed past my lips. I was vaguely aware of Carlo's arm coming around my shoulders as I stared at Gianpaolo— my father.The number tube, IVs, had my heart sinking and I stifled a sob, a big bandage went around his head and machines I've never seen before— “Oh God,” I let out a sob, my chest heaved as I tried to swallow my cries. I promised to be strong. I will be strong.My eyes burned with hot tears as I stared at his motionle

    CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & TWENTY-EIGHT:Carlo's POV: The doctor had said the exact thing Enzo had said. He'd asked that we hoped and prayed. ‘Prayed.’I haven't done that in fucking ages. Where do I start from? And in my experience, it usually goes unanswered. But the way things were going, I didn't mind going down on my knees and trying again. Praying in hope that Gianpaolo makes it out alive.He has to. Not quite long after, Natalia had regained consciousness. Camilla assured me that it was nothing serious, apart from the detected low sugar level which made me frown. Haven't they been watching her diet? Giving her the best meds? And then I thought back to the incident in the last few days. No one around here has had it easy so I brushed it aside and asked that they recommended the right food and all and got my own copy of the list the doctors had made so I could also monitor her feeding and the rest.Soon after Camilla had cleared her, she was up on her feet and asking to be tak

My vision blurred but I could feel hands trying to steady me.I… I only just got him back.Why?Why?!!!!Why me all the time!?!?What if he dies? WHAT IF HE DIES?!Oh God. Oh God. Which superior being's meal had I pissed in before I was born? Why was I allowed happiness for a fleeting second only to watch it being snatched away?! And… and… Gianpaolo? My heart ached. He's only just met me too! I heard muffled voices around me but I couldn't seem to concentrate. I knew I was panicking but I couldn't do anything about it.Fuck. Fuck.I can't have a panic attack now. My… my baby. It will upset them….I tried to claw my way back to sanity but my throat ached, my chest felt like it trapped air in it and I couldn't fucking breathe.Now, I was panicking because I thought I was killing my baby.I was desper

    CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & TWENTY-SIX: Carlo’s POV: Something about the urgency of Enzo’s voice made my stomach tighten and beside me, I could feel Natalia go stiff. What could be the problem now? “…Look, if he's upset again, I can go speak with him, there’s no need for trouble,” Natalia said from beside me, already making a move to slip out of bed when I shook my head. “Don’t worry, there will be no trouble,” I assured her. I had no intention of fighting with the man. Still, I wasn't going to hug and kiss his cheeks and make up but for her, I’m willing to act civil. She eyed me with uncertainty and concern. “Are you sure? You heard Enzo, he says there's a problem.”“Doesn’t mean I’ll let it escalate,” I replied calmly. “Come on now, let’s freshen up and we can deal with whatever afterward—”“But, Carlo—”“We reek of sweat and sex, we should clean up before solving whatever the problem is,” I urged and then turned to the door with a louder voice. “Enzo, we’ll be down in ten min—”“Fi

    CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & TWENTY-FIVE: Carlo's POV: Hot, wet, tight heat enveloped my cock like a fist, massaging the throbbing length as I kept my eyes locked on hers…Beautiful.More than beautiful. Is what I think to myself as I felt my chest expand with emotions.It feels so good. All of it. Loving someone and having them love you back. Sex too. It felt heavenly.I leaned closer until our lips were almost touching and I pulled my cock out, smoothly gliding it against the slickness of her warm, slippery walls—fuck, she felt good. Beyond good. I could come like this.I pulled out all the way until I was only the head buried in her and then, I slammed back in causing her lips to fall open in a silent gasp. I did it, again, again, again, again, and again until her moans grew louder and my balls started to tingle with fullness. From somewhere in the corner of the room, I could hear my phone ringing or was it… hers? I tuned out the incessant ringing, focusing on the woman who stared up

    CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & TWENTY-FOUR:Natalia’s POV: As soon as the words left my lips, I was lifted off the floor, again, effortlessly and his lips claimed mine.Hot, demanding, possessing. The kiss wasn't slow or tender like it had been earlier, no, he was practically devouring my lips, eating me alive. I loved it.My skirt rode up to my waist, leaving me in only panties, bare to the feel of his palms and I squirmed against them—anything to feel him against my bare skin.I was still reeling from the very fact that he'd confessed his love for me and I can bet it was the reason why everything felt overly sensitive, sensual.I felt him move as he deepened the kiss, hot tongues tangling, teeth biting into soft, warm flesh, and moans and groans echoing in the room. Perfection.I broke the kiss, opening my eyes just in time to see him lower onto the edge of the bed, and bringing me with him so I was still straddling him.Our eyes locked, his curled into a sexy smile. “You're breathtaking

    CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & TWENTY-THREE:Natalia's POV:I did it!I did it.I did it….I actually did it…That was all I could think about.It was freeing to have finally confessed. Sure, I'd been scared shirtless, unsure, and maybe a little insecure but I'd said, ‘fuck it’ and just lay it out there.I'd meant every word I had said to him. It had taken me hours to think about my life, my past, and what the future holds for me. I'd asked myself if I could live with the fact that Carlo wasn't just some man I met months ago but a man who had separated me from my parents, driven by hurt, anger, and revenge. Of course, I know I might have died that day if Antonio's brother hadn't saved me, I know that… But I was willing to let it go for my own happiness even though that meant people might think I was stupid. I already loved Carlo, there was no turning back now, plus he was different now. I know he is. He and Gianpaolo might hate each other now, but I know in my soul that they would forgive eac

    CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & TWO: Carlo's POV: HOURS LATER… It was just eight in the morning and I was still thinking of how to approach Natalia and apologize for my outburst yesterday. My pride wouldn't let me though. It was wounded, bruised and battered. Of course, I knew I had way too much pride for one person and my ego was three sizes bigger than a football stadium. Still, I needed to shove them aside and talk to the woman who meant a lot to me… Haven't even told her that already. Thanks to my pride. ‘You're not fit to be in a relationship, Carlo.’ A voice mocked. It wasn't wrong. It's a wonder how she puts up with me. ‘Just go to her, how hard is that?’ True, it shouldn't be hard. To be honest, I wasn't the only person who had been affected by yesterday's event. She was too. But in a moment of selfishness, I made it all about me. Neither I nor Gianpaolo were completely innocent but she was. She was the one caught in a century-long war and yet, she'd handle it with gr

    CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & TWENTY-ONE: Angela's POV: Why did I change my mind? Because I knew he'd always fuck up, just like he had done in the past and I was done putting my hopes on a nineteen year old who acts like a lost puppy! Luca was like that stuck gum underneath your shoe that you couldn't quite get rid of. Why did I think it was a good idea to seduce and manipulate my nephew? The thing is, I wasn't thinking and about two years ago, I thought it was the most brilliant idea, that was before Natalia was brought here. I'd thought if I'd made him fall in love with me, I could control him. Well, I can in fact, control him. The fucker does whatever I want, would put his life in danger without hesitation if I asked, even the planned attack on he and Natalia, he'd agreed to that without hesitation but Luca had one big flaw; he'd always protect his father… He was okay with my plan to take over and rule—he thinks he'd be by my side for that, pathetic—but he keeps insisting that I do
