Alessio's pov 

A week later

“The Russians need to be taken care of before they become a bigger problem,” Vincenzo, one of my investors said, his face laced with worry.

I hummed, nodding my head, barely paying attention to what he said. My thoughts kept drifting to Gabriella. She was a drug I didn't want to be addicted to. Everything about her from her scent, down to her curves pissed me off. 

That was why I avoided her.

Every morning, she prepared meals for me, but I made sure to leave before she woke up and return late at night. I needed distance. She was getting under my skin, and I hated that.

"Alessio?" Vincenzo’s sharp voice cut through my thoughts.

I blinked, forcing my focus back to the conversation. "Go on.”

“Like I said," he began. “If you want our continued support, you need to guarantee that we can call upon your services when needed. Can we count on you?" 

I nodded. “Sì. (Yes)"

The Russians had started crossing into our territory, and that was unacceptable. A war was near, I could feel it but I wasn’t stupid enough to fight it alone. That’s why I had arranged this meeting, to secure support from another Mafia family.

"So, we’re in agreement?" Vincenzo smirked.

I picked up the contract and signed it without hesitation. "Consider it done."

As soon as the deak was finalized, Carlo approached me, his face troubled. I knew that look, it meant bad news.

He bent down to my level whispering. "Don, there’s something you need to know."

I excused myself from Vincenzo before following Carlo outside. "Talk."

"It’s your wife Don," he whispered. "She went into the dungeon and unchained two men."

I clenched my fists, looking Carlo deadly in the eye. "What do you mean?" 

Carlo lowered his gaze. "She set them free but luckily the guards caught them before they could escape."

"And where the hell were the other men when she wandered to the dungeon?” I asked Carlo who didn't say a word. 

What the hell was Gabriella thinking? I'd specially given her rules to follow and she's broken one of them. Disobedience had consequences and now it's about time she'd learnt that. 

I returned to Vincenzo, closing the deal swiftly before heading straight to the car. Carlo remained silent beside me during the drive, but I could feel his wary glances. He knew better than to speak when I was this furious.

Why the fuck would Gabriella even try to go against my rules? Was she naive or just stupid? She had no clue. 

I stepped out of the car, the moment we arrived at the mansion. My men greeted me but I ignored them. I had important things to take care of, but I'd certainly deal with them later. I stormed upstairs to my bedroom and without knocking I pushed the door open.

My gaze instantly locked on Gabriela who sat on the edge of the bed, flipping through a book as she frowned. She looked so gentle as if she hadn't done something reckless a few minutes ago.

Her eyes widened the moment she saw me. “A-Alessio?" She stammered, getting off the bed, fingers tightened around the book. 

I clenched my fists, taking a minute to observe her. She was dressed in a tank top and a pair of shorts that barely covered her ass. My eyes darkened at the thought of my men seeing her dressed like this. Did she seem to forget she's now my wife? That I'm the only one allowed to see her like this. 

I took slow, deliberate steps towards her, halting when I was a few inches from her. “You have one minute Gabriella, one minute to tell me what the fuck you were doing in the dungeon," 

"I……" she stammered. "I heard noises. I didn’t know what was down there, so I went to check."

"And you thought unchaining them was a good idea hmmm?"

She hesitated. They begged me,” she said softly. “They told me they had families. That they didn’t deserve to be locked up like that.”

I took another step closer. “And you believed them?”

She flinched. “I….I don’t know. I just….”

“You don’t know?” My voice boomed. “You don’t know that those men would have slit your throat the second they got free? That they’re traitors?”

I let out a humorless chuckle. "So, that’s all it takes? A few desperate words and you go against my rules?"

Her mouth parted open, unsure of what to say. Gabriella had unleashed something in me and now she's about to witness something she'd probably hate me for.

I grabbed her wrist, my firm grip but not tight. "Come with me."

"No……wait! Alessio!" She struggled, but I didn’t let go. 

I dragged her downstairs, ignoring the watchful eyes of my men. We reached the dungeon, where the two traitors were kneeling, their faces bloodied from earlier beatings.

Gabriella stiffened beside me, her face flickering between me and the men. 

Lifting my shirt up slightly, I pulled out my gun and pressed it on the head of one of the traitors. 

Gabriella's eyes widened. “Alessio, please, this isn't the way to……..”

"These men betrayed the De Luca clan," I cut her off, my finger tightening around the trigger. "They aligned themselves with the West Merger, knowing it meant war. La lealtà non è qualcosa che si può scambiare e il tradimento non è ciò che perdono. ( Loyalty isn't something to trade and betrayal isn't what I forgive)."

"Still think they deserve mercy?” I turned to Gabriella who stared at me with fear. Good, I wanted her to hate me.

Without a second thought, I pulled the trigger.  

Her scream tore through the room, raw and piercing.  

The body collapsed, blood spreading like a dark omen across the floor.  

The second man trembled, his hands raised in desperate surrender. His pleas were nothing but wasted breath. I never granted mercy.  

I pulled the trigger once more, silencing his pleas. 

I turned to Gabriella. Tears slipped down her cheeks as her hand flew to her mouth.

“This is what my world looks like, Gabriella,” I said, wiping the blood stain off my gun. You don't get to change the rules.”

“Just stay away from me, Alessio." She turned, looking for an escape. But there was none.

I grabbed her wrist, leading her back to the bedroom. When we arrived, I shut the door behind me, locking it instantly.

Gabriella turned to face me, her body shaking slightly as she held the bead stand for support. 

"You went against my rules, bella." I said, taking slow steps towards her. 

She took a step back. "I didn’t know…."

"You knew!" I cut her off, slamming my fist into the wall. She flinched. “You fucking knew the dungeon was off limits, yet you chose to disobey me,” I closed the distance between us, caging her against the wall. “And now Bella, you're going to pay for what you did." 

I moved my lips closer to her neck, inhaling her scent. She smelled of vanilla which was sour but Intoxicating at the same time. 

She lifted her face to mine, her lips parting open as I brushed her lips with the corner of my mouth. 

I moved back, staring at her lips as I whispered. “Do you know what happens to disobedient little girls?”

“No," she said, her body trembling beneath my touch.

Smirking, I traced her arms, my touch gentle and smooth. “I show them who they belong to.”

With that being said, I slammed my lips fiercely against hers, pouring all my hunger and frustration into it. I wrapped my hand around her waist, pulling her close as I slipped my tongue into her mouth. 

A whimper escaped her lips which made me groan. Gabriella's hand flew to my chest, pushing me back. I ripped her hands off my chest, pinning them above her head..

“Alessio…….” she moaned, struggling against my grip.

I pulled back, staring at her lips. “Beg me to stop." I gritted out, earning no response from her. 

Smirking, I lowered my lips to her ear. “No?" I asked, my fingers trailing up her thighs.

“Please…” she whispered. I couldn't tell if was pleading for me to stop or for something else entirely .

I pressed my body against hers. “Please what? Say what you want Bella. Tell me." I teased, trailing kisses down her neck. 

"Beg me," I growled, my eyes flickering to her plump lips. 

I kissed her once again, this time fiercer and demanding. But before I could deepen the kiss, Gabriella bit down on my lower lip, forcing me to stumble back.

“There is nothing you can do to make you love you again, ever," She panted, her breathing coming in short gasps as she stared at me with disgust.

Chucking, my tongue ran over my bottom lip and I could taste blood. “ You're playing a dangerous game with me.”

“I'm done playing your games, Alessio.” She spat.

I stepped closer, pressing her against the wall, my voice low and dangerous. "Then I hope you're ready for mine, princess… because I never lose.”

    Gabriella's Pov I stared up at the ceiling, unable to sleep even though it was past midnight. My heart began racing when I thought of what happened earlier. The kiss. It replayed in my mind which made it harder to focus. I felt hot and angry about what Alessio did. The way he kissed me was insane, it was rough, and demanding at the same time. My first kiss, stolen just like that. And the worst part? He didn’t even act like it mattered. Like it was no big deal. That made me furious. Groaning, I turned to face Alessio. He laid next to me, sleeping peacefully like he hadn't just left me all hot and bothered. His blond hair rested messily against the pillow. His features looked relaxed and for a split second I hated the fact that he looked so good even while he was asleep. Of course he had to be sleeping fine. Why wouldn’t he be? He always got what he wanted. We’d kissed once before, back when we were kids playing truth or dare. I was sure Alessio didn’t remember, but it had meant e

I couldn't back out now, not after everything I went through to be here. The sound of my heels echoed in the not so spacious study as I walked forward, the shirt dresses clinging more to my skin with every step I took. The room smelled of whiskey and smoke, and I knew I'd just walked into a deadly trap.Alessio sat at the head of the long glass table, his eyes squinting as he looked at me from head to toe. I could see his jaw tightening when his eyes locked on the neckline of my dress. He seemed mad but fixed a smile to his face which didn't quite teach his eyes.“Cara Mia," he called out, his voice low and dangerous which sent a shiver down my spine. To the men, it sounded like he was praising his wife but to me, it sounded more like a warning than a greeting.I held back a chuckle, knowing too well that I was in trouble. I shook my

He clenched his fists as he circled me, his eyes darkening as a smirk formed on his lips. He was really tough, his punches seemed like he had trained for a long while. He was definitely stronger than me, or was it possible that I'd grown weaker?I shook my head slightly, that was impossible. I slammed my fists, forcing my muscles to be string despite the fact that they ached badly. The crowd roared as they cheered for us. Grittng my teeth, I stepped forward and without hesitation, I lunged my fist Into his jaw in a brutal uppercut, sending him staggering back. He slumped down with a third that echoed through the gym.The referee's count barely registered until he reached ten, and I was declared the winner.

    Gabriella's PovI groaned as I sank into the bed, holding the plate of lasagna in my hands. The scent of tomato and cheese lingered in the room. I had no appetite to eat any longer. I stared at the plate, my stomach rumbling but not from hunger. I'd learnt how to make this from my father, it was his favorite recipe. I remembered how he laughs each time he teaches me. How he pretends to sneeze due to the flour in his hands, it made me giggle so loud. The memory remained fresh in my head, and I blinked rapidly, trying hard not to cry.Why was I here? Why did he want to get married to me if he hated me? What did Alessio want from me? And why did he seem to take so much pleasure in my misery?“Get a grip,” I muttered, shoving the plate onto the nightstand. The fork made a sharp noise and silence followed after. I pulled my knees to my chest. I've spent days in the mansion, just forced to be kept here like a slave with nothing to do but think. Think about my parents, about Alessio’s cold e

I reached out to her, steadying her as I wrapped my hands protectively around her waist. Uncle Martini let out a cough and I turned to see him glaring at me. Sighing, I turned back to Gabriella.“Go inside, I'll be with you shortly," I said to her and walked away. I followed my uncle down the hall, my footsteps slow and steady.

    Victor's Pov The cold night air grazed my skin the moment I stepped onto the pavement outside an abandoned warehouse. The warehouse seemed like a place they had forgotten for ages, the walls were decaying. I could hear distant sirens wailing in the city, but here, it was dead silent. I knew this was probably the worst decision I had made in my life, but I didn’t care. I needed to see him. Taking a deep breath, I walked forward, the heavy metal door standing tall over me. I curled my fists at my sides. It has to happen now or never. I've heard stories about this place, about the man that ruled it. They said he was the most dangerous man in New York. The kind of person you shouldn't cross unless you had a death wish. And yet, here I was, standing in his territory. The door swung open before I could knock. A man stood in the doorway, his face covered in a mask, his eyes dark and suspicious. He was tall, built like a soldier, and has an aura of someone who takes pleasure in murder

    Gabriella's Pov I stared at the private jet in front of me, my eyes widening in disbelief. No way, Alessio owned this. The jet was huge, painted sleek with the letter “A” engraved by the side. My heart raced with excitement. I had never been on a private jet before. The idea of flying in something this grand made me feel so happy. I turned to Alessio, hoping to see if he was as excited as I was, but he was busy typing into his phone. He stood a few steps away, dressed in a black suit as always, speaking in a low voice that I couldn’t quite hear. His face was serious, focused, as if nothing in the world could distract him. “This… is yours?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper. Alessio barely spared me a glance as he spoke into his phone. “Board the plane. We don’t have all day.” I let out a scoff. He could at least pretend to be as amazed as I was. But of course, he wasn’t. This was probably normal for him, private jets, luxury hotels, expensive cars. Meanwhile, I was still

It had been years since I set foot in this country, years since my parents left me in this cold hearted world and I had no choice but to move to New York, leaving behind everything they had built. But some things never changed. This was my father's latest warehouse and even after all these years it stood strong. I straightened my suit, staring at the large steel door before me. This warehouse was a place where the guns were hidden, far from the prying eyes of the detective's. Tonight, however, I felt something was wrong. Sighing, I pushed the door open and stepped inside. My eyes wandered around the room. It was dimly lit with the scent of wood filling the air. My footsteps were the only sound heard in the room as I walked against the concrete floor. My hands slid across the rows of crates, my eyes roaming around searching for Vincenzo. I found him

    Gabriella's PovThe car ride back to the mansion was unusually quiet. Paul’s eyes were glued to the road, hands gripped firm around the steering wheel, his jaw locked like he was chewing on a million thoughts he refused to spit out.But me? My mind was racing.Just before Paul interrupted earlier, she slid a paper into my hand. Quiet, quick, unnoticed.I waited until we were clear. I shifted slightly in my seat, making sure Paul’s eyes stayed ahead, and with a racing heart and trembling fingers, I unfolded the little piece of paper.It was a phone number. No name. Just digits.I glanced at Paul again. He was still focused on the road. A slow, strange smile tugged at the corner of my lips. The moment we pulled into the long driveway and the mansion came into view, I practically flew out of the car the second we stopped. I didn’t wait for Paul to open my door. I didn’t even say a word.

    Gabriella's Pov The house felt like a damn museum, big, cold but lifeless. I wandered through the long hallways with no real direction, just bare feet against polished floors and boredom clinging to me like perfume.I had already counted the columns in the hallway twice. There were Twenty-eight in total. The exact number of minutes I’d been pacing. I muttered to myself, “I’m going crazy.”No one answered. Obviously.I made my way to the front of the house, hoping, praying, for some reason to go out. Maybe a fire. An earthquake. A scandal. Anything.Two guards stood at the entrance like they were a statue. One of them, the bald one in sunglasses, turned his head as I approached.“I want to head out,” I said, already bracing for the worst. To my surprise the bald guy grunted. “Can’t let you do that, ma’am.”I crossed my arms. “Excuse me?”“Don’s orders. You're to stay inside.”I blinked. “Are you hearing yourself? Am I a prisoner now?”“No one said that,” he replied calmly. Too calml

I stepped out of the SUV, the gravel stones crunching beneath my boots. I looked around taking in the view. No signs of life, except the figure leaning against the barrel near the far end of the building. Pablo.His arms were crossed, his body relaxed. That alone made my skin itch.I didn’t say anything at first. Just walked. Each step echoing as I moved. Two of my men Carlo and Ricci stood beside me. The tension between all could’ve cracked a concrete wall. “You picked a hell of a place for a meeting,” I muttered when I got close enough to see the sweat on Pablo’s brow.He smirked, his eyes hidden behind those damn mirrored shades. “You’re late.”“Traffic,” I said dryly. “Let’s not waste more time.”He shifted, finally standing up straight. “I got news. But you’re not gonna like it.”I narrowed my eyes. “I haven’t liked much of anything la

The metallic scent of iron clung to the atmosphere, mixing with the stale odor of cigarette smoke.Victor knelt on the cold floor, his face battered and swollen, blood trickling from his split lip. His left eye was nearly swollen shut, a deep purple bruise forming around it. His hands trembled slightly as he kept them pressed against his sides, barely able to lift his gaze to the imposing figure seated before him.The man in the chair was silent for a long moment, merely observing Victor with cold, calculating eyes. His fingers tapped rhythmically against the armrest, a patient yet ominous gesture. Behind him, two guards stood motionless, their expressions unreadable, their presence filed with a silent warning. Finally, he spoke, his voice calm but laced with danger."Tell me, Victor. Why didn'

    Gabriella's Pov I woke up feeling light, like I was floating. My eyes fluttered open, and the first thing I saw was Alessio’s face, his features looking soft as the dim light of the plane cabin reflected on him. His arms were wrapped securely around me, holding me close to his chest as he carried me effortlessly.“Finally awake,” he murmured, his voice deep yet soft but there was something else beneath it, relief? Concern?I blinked, trying to shake the drowsiness from my mind. “What… happened?” My voice came out hoarse, and my throat felt dry. I struggled to recall the last moments before I drifted it to sleep. “We landed,” he said simply. “You were exhausted, so I let you rest.”I swallowed hard and slowly became aware of the hum of the plane’s engines winding down. The scent of Alessio’s cologne wrapped around me, it was woodsy, rich, and something undeniably him. I should have pulled away, but his warmth was comforting, and my body refused to fight against the ease of his grip

I blink a few times, trying to shake off the lingering haze in my mind.“Here, sit up straight,” he adds, handing me a bottle of water.I stare at him for a moment, my mind struggling to process the situation. Alessio… being nice? Is this a dream? I shake my head slightly, pushing the thought away, and take the water from him. The cool liquid soothes my dry throat as I gulp it down in one go.“Where am I?” I ask, furrowing my brows as I take in my surroundings. The bright hospital lights, the scent of antiseptic, the stiff sheets under my fingers, it all starts to make sense.“You’re in the hospital, Bella,” he replies, his voice low and steady. His hand continues rubbing slow, comforting circles on my arm, sending an unfamiliar warmth through me.I don’t know what shocks me more, the fact that I’m here or the fact that Alessio is being… tender.

I found out who’s behind the shipment.” He hesitated for a second. “It was the Russians.”My entire body tensed. The Russians. Of course, it was them. Filthy, backstabbing bastards. My fingers curled into a fist around the phone, my knuckles turning white. I could feel my pulse hammering against my ears. “What else?” My voice was low, controlled, but deadly.Vincenzo sucked in a breath. “Don… you need to get out of there. Now.”Something in his tone sent a chill down my spine. My instincts sharpened, my grip tightening on the balcony railing. “What do you mean?” I demanded, my voice coming out sharper than intended. “The place has been raided…..”Before I could reply, gunshots rang out. “Shit,” I muttered to myself. My breath hitched as adrenaline surged through me. My mind raced through a thousand possibilities

It clung to my body just right, making me feel elegant, but the moment Alessio walked in, my confidence started to slip away.Dressed in a sharp black suit, his red tie matched my dress, though we hadn't planned it that way. His dark eyes scanned me slowly, intensely. I felt my face flush under his gaze."You look…" His voice was low, dangerous and seductive. "Perfect."I swallowed hard, looking away.

My mouth was dry, and my body felt heavy. Ugh. What the hell happened last night? Then it all came rushing back, Alessio, his cold attitude, the way he dismissed me like I was nothing. Anger bubbled inside me as I pushed the blanket off. That man had a way of getting under my skin like no one else. I looked around the room, expecting to see him, but it was empty. Of course, it was empty, as it always is. Pushing back the thick duvet, I forced myself to sit up, groaning at the slight dizziness that accompanied my movements. My throat was parched, and as I looked around the room, I realized something, it didn't feel like he slept here last night. My eyes instantly landed on the table by the keft, that’s when I noticed it, a small pill bottle, a glass of water, and a note placed neatly on the coffee table. Curious, I pic
