Mia's POV

My heart stopped beating, and my breath caught in my throat. I could not believe what had just happened in front of me.

That bullet Uncle Marco fired was meant for me. But Xavier stepped in between. He took that bullet in his back while shielding me from death.

"XAVIER!"

All the air left my lungs as I screamed his name.

He fell to the ground. I knelt beside him and placed his head on my lap. His eyes were closed, his face pale. I couldn’t stand seeing him like that.

"Xavier, open your eyes. Why did you do that? Why did you take that bullet? Wake up, please," I cried, but he didn’t open his eyes. I gently shook him, desperate for him to wake up and look at me. My tears began pouring down, falling onto his face. But he remained still, not moving a finger. I felt like my own life was slipping away.

I heard chaos around me. People were shouting and running toward us.

"Ma’am, please let us take him to the hospital," I heard Sam asking me to let go of Xavier. But my heart and body

    Mia's POV Xavier regained consciousness after six hours, but he was still asleep because the doctors gave him sedatives to suppress the pain. Xavier's mother wanted to take me home because bodyguards were standing outside the room 24/7, and nurses were present inside to attend to him anytime. But my heart didn’t want to leave him alone here in the hospital. I insisted on staying with him. My father came to me and said, "Mia, don’t worry about anything. He is fine and recovering fast. You are not alone, dear. Call me for anything." This was the first time my father showed concern for me, and I was surprised, unable to decide whether I could trust him or not. What if he changed later, becoming cold and heartless toward me again? They all left one by one, and I was now alone with Xavier. I sat beside his bed and kept looking at his face. I caressed his head and brushed some hair back from his forehead. Bending over, I kissed his temple and murmured, "Recover soon, honey. I want to h

They all decorated Kavier and my house with flowers and heart-shaped red and white balloons. Xavier's parents, uncle, aunt, and cousins stayed there till late at night. Matteo also came, and they partied and celebrated Kavier's recovery. Anna and I still didn't get along well. She used to taunt me at every chance she got. But I chose to ignore her because I didn't want to spoil the mood. It was half past eleven when everyone bid goodbye. As I turned after closing the door of our mansion, Xavier picked me up in his arms. "Xavier!" I squealed. "What are you doing? You will hurt yourself again." "Don't worry, baby girl. I am perfectly alright," he said, looking down at me and smirking. "But what about when your wound starts bleeding again?" I asked in worry. "It has recovered, baby girl, and stop making excuses. I am dying to fuck you hard and deep," he said sh

    Mia's POV Kara could be mean sometimes. But, she was the meanest to me. Why the hell did she always want to fight with me? I was tired of her tantrums and listening to her claiming Xavier as hers. What was so difficult not to get into her evil brain that I was the one who married Xavier Leonardi? "You will see one day. I'll get what belongs to me. What will you do that day? So it would be better to stop being a third wheel," Kara kept spitting her poison, and now I lost my last thread of patience. I turned towards her. "Stop it, Kara. If I'm not saying anything, it doesn't mean I cannot answer you. I just want to respect our relationship. But you forgot your place. You are my sister, and Xavier is your brother-in-law," I tried to keep my voice calm even though I wanted to shout in her face. "And you are talking about my husband, and I won't tolerate this. You had a chance, but you chose a different option. Now, why do you regret it? You, yourself, rejected him and left him withou

    Xavier's POV After a week, I went to the office and found so many things that needed my attention. A threat from the Russian mafia was continuously drawing my attention. The Russian boss had proposed a union, but I didn’t agree with their conditions. They were engaged in child trafficking, prostitution, and drugs, which I would never allow in my country. And now they wanted to take over my position and territory. I declined their offer, but they were persistent. They had altered the deal so many times. I rubbed my forehead to soothe the headache I had been having since morning. The phone on my table started ringing. I scowled because I was not in the mood to meet anyone. “Maggie, don’t disturb me. I am not in the mood to meet anyone,” I barked my orders to my secretary and put the phone down without listening to her. After a few minutes, someone knocked on my office door and entered without permission. “Who the hell allowed…” I wanted to curse but stopped when I saw my dad and

It's really shameful that you don't trust me after so many years of our friendship," Antonio replied."So, why don't you persuade your daughter to give Xavier the rights and power she has over the Valerio Empire? After all, we both wanted him to rule over the Italian Mafia, and adding Valerio's Empire to Leonardi's would make him the wealthiest. And do you think Mia can take care of such a large empire without any helping hand?" My dad again forced his point of view."I won't force her. It's totally her decision," Antonio said, turning to his side to avert his eyes from my dad."Really, Antonio? What made you change your opinion about Mia? As long as I know, you never cared for her, and you were the one who forced her to marry my son as a substitute for your daughter Kara when she refused to marry Xavier at the last moment," my d

    Mia's POV Xavier was late again. But I was waiting for him after finishing my studies, reading a book on the couch while waiting for him. He came in, and all my attention automatically diverted toward him. He smiled as he entered. A maid took his jacket and bag and went off. I stood up, closed my book, and went near him. "Hey!" I couldn’t help it; my lips automatically curled into a smile every time I saw him. "Hey, baby!" He gave me his hypnotic smile and wrapped an arm around my shoulder while using his other hand to loosen his tie. "Late again," I complained as we headed toward the dining area. A maid came with a glass of water on a tray. "Yeah! I have to work, babe, to earn our bread and butter," he said, half smiling, and picked up the glass to bring it to his lips. I watched his throat move up and down as he drank the water. He put the glass back on the tray and, turning toward me, placed a finger under my chin, lifting it to close my open mouth. Oh, shit! I realized I

We are in the dining area, and anyone can come anytime." She panicked, looking around. "No one will come, Mia. I have instructed all the servants to go off duty and not come out of their rooms until the morning," I informed her. I’ve already sent a broadcast to all the house help to go off duty immediately so I could have a complete house alone for Mia and me. I lifted her and placed her on the table. I sat between her legs as she looked down at me with her big innocent blue eyes. They took my heart from the first time I looked through those beautiful eyes. I trailed my hands up from her ankles through her bare soft legs towards her knees. I moved my hands up further towards her shorts-covered thighs. My eyes darkened when she shivered under my touch. She was so sensitive in this area. I rested my hand on

I couldn't survive one more minute staying away from her. I wanted to see her, feel her, and make sure I was alive. Every second without her was literally killing me. I rushed towards the exit at the airport. My car was waiting for me. I quickly settled inside and ordered them to drive faster. The long drive to my home was unbearable as I was out of patience. As soon as the car stopped before my mansion, I quickly stepped down and ran inside. I saw my father and my uncle sitting there talking to each other. My cousins were also there. But my eyes wanted to see only her face the first thing when I entered. I looked around to find Mia, but she was nowhere. She must have arrived hours before. Being anxious, I could not help but shout her name. "MIA!" Her name sounded like a prayer leaving my mouth. Everyone's attention was

I was worried about Xavier. He was alone there, surrounded by so many armed men and that cruel Don Nikolai. I prayed in my heart that he should be safe and come to me soon. "Don't worry. He will be alright. He is Xavier Leonardi. No one can touch a single hair on his head," he said with confidence. "He is alone there and surrounded by fifty armed people. Don Nikolai is also very dangerous. I am scared for Xavier's safety. Please, I request you to go back to him," I pleaded with him. "I am sorry. I have orders to take you home safely. Your safety is my first priority. Otherwise, he won't forgive me for ignoring his orders. Only you and your safety matter to him and nothing else," he paused and sighed. "Don't worry, our men and Sam are standing outside the mansion; they are only a signal away." I

    Xavier's POV Don Nikolai became mad in anger. His plan didn't work, and everything went wrong, opposite his expectations. He thought he could make me agree to his demand. How foolish of him. No one in this world can make Xavier Leonardi bend down. He was also going to learn very soon that he had made a big mistake by calling me there. He was fuming red and lost his mind as he ordered his men to point their guns towards me. Anger indeed makes us lose our ability to think correctly. Did they not know that Xavier Leonardi is the second name of death? Did he really think I would give up in front of him just because he could keep my wife away from me for a whole day? In his fuc.king dreams. I watched as they held out their guns towards me. I leaned back on the couch and laughed at their stupidity. They looked at me dumbfounded. These idiots can never get into my brain. I took a quick glance over the room, and before they got alert, I lunged forward swiftly, picking up the broken gl

After getting permission, they only allowed Matteo and me inside. My men remained outside, waiting for my next order. Just as my eyes landed on Mia, I forgot everything. Don Nikolai was screaming to stop me, but I didn't care. My hands craved to touch her, my body wanted to feel her, my lips wanted to have her on mine, and my tongue wanted to taste her. I could not stop. As soon as I had her in my arms, my lips landed on hers fiercely, roughly, with hunger and desperation. When I pulled away, I looked at her face. She was looking weak. Her eyes were dull and red, as if she had been crying for hours. I searched for any injury to her bod

    Mia's POV I was in a vast hall with a dining table full of different foods. I noticed Emma and Adam sitting there. Emma looked at me and smiled cunningly, but I averted my eyes. Adam wasn’t looking at me at all, completely ignoring me. To my surprise, Don Nikolai pulled out a chair for me. I settled into it reluctantly. Some butlers arrived and began serving the meal. I glanced at the food on my plate, then at Don Nikolai. He chuckled before saying, "I ordered them to prepare all your favorite dishes for dinner." I wasn’t surprised that he knew my favorite foods—Emma and Adam had all the information about me. I chose to remain silent and started eating from my plate. Don Nikolai kept staring at me with his dark eyes the entire time, making me feel uncomfortable. Suddenly, I heard noises coming from the doorway. A man rushed in and whispered something into Don Nikolai’s ear. He nodded and said, “Bring them inside.” My heart began to race as I heard footsteps approaching. My ey

    Mia's POV I couldn’t believe Emma and Adam could do this to me. I trusted them. We were best friends. But they used me as a pawn in their games. I was so unfortunate to have always been betrayed by my trust. Was trusting and being emotionally attached my mistake? Was this why I always ended up in trouble? Why can’t I be heartless and selfish like the people around me? I was locked in a room. It didn’t feel like a prison—it was a luxurious room. I kept wondering why they had kidnapped me and kept me here. What did they want from me? I came out of my thoughts when I heard the sound of the door opening. Emma entered, holding a tray in her hand. "Who are you exactly, Emma? I’m sure you’re not my friend. Why have you kept me captive here?" I shouted in anger, hurt by their betrayal. "Keep your voice low," she said in a bored voice. "If Don hears you, you’ll be in great trouble. Just some friendly advice, Mia," she added, winking at me, making me scowl. "Why did you do this to m

All I wanted was for Mia to listen to me, just once. But she didn’t want to. She tried to run away, her innocent blue eyes filled with hate and disgust for me. That broke my heart. My Mia hated me? Before I knew it, I was begging her to come back, admitting how much I loved her. I was ready to do anything to convince her. She stopped running but began crying even more. I furrowed my brow. She covered her mouth with her hand and closed her eyes as tears streamed down her cheeks. I couldn’t understand. She opened her eyes and started to say something.

Then she turned to me, "Do you have any tracker with you?" she asked me in a surprisingly rude tone."No, I don't have anything like that," I replied.I didn't know what they were talking about because they made me leave my phone midway on the road."Who is following us?" I asked again."Your husband, Mia," she yelled at me, to my surprise. "I don't know how they tracked our location to reach us so fast," she said more to herself."But why are you shouting at me, Emma?"
