My Bloodthirsty Mafia Man Chapter 14 : Plot, Plans & Obsessions
*Darick’s POV*I felt as if someone had punched me in the gut as I watched Gwen walk out the door. What just happened? Did we just almost kiss? No, no, no. What was I thinking, putting a blood oath on her? I don't even know her, and now, I'm tied to her forever.I grabbed my boxing gloves and excessively hit the punching bag. A surge of rage jolted through my body as I thought about the situation I found myself in.Why did she have to break into my house? I would have never met her had she minded her own damn business. Now she'd entered my life, and I couldn’t let her leave. If she wrote a story about us…we’d be done for. Vampires weren’t known to the general public and if they were to find out, it’d be an all out war—on the vampire and human sides. I grabbed the punching bag and rested my head against it. Sweat dripped profusely from my forehead. I could barely lift my arms, and upon lifting my head, I realized I put a small dent in the punching bag.

“Gwen’s POV*After leaving Darick in the gym, I went to the kitchen and warmed up the leftover pizza Isabella had made for me before leaving. I tried to shake the events of what almost transpired between Darick and me, but I couldn't stop thinking about how good his body looked. I couldn’t believe I almost kissed a vampire—and the ringleader of a notorious mafia group, nonetheless. He was my captor, for crying out loud!So what had possessed me to do such a thing, and why couldn't I stop thinking about Darick? The way he gripped my waist caused me to want to rip his pants off and fuck him on the gym floor. I had never felt so secure as I felt in his arms. His words, "I am the danger," still rang in my ear, and despite knowing he was dangerous, I still wanted more. His eyes were enchanting, and he spoke with such authority that I felt like I was in a trance, desperately longing to heed his every command. He didn't need to put me under a blood oath to keep me under his c

*Gwen’s POV*Amon’s black mohawk was spiked high on the top of his head and didn't move an inch as he thrust himself forward. The side of his head was shaved with what looked like cult symbols. "Hmm. You look delicious," he said, tracing his finger across my lips, down my chin, across my throat, and down to the bottom of my neck. All the while, his teeth tantalized my throat. "Please, I won't say anything to anyone about you being here," I pleaded, hoping my promise would cause him to leave. "Do you think I'm afraid of anyone in this house? Do you know anything about me or vampires, girl?!" Amon pulled the back of my hair, forcing my head back. His eyes bore into mine and transitioned into a dark red, illuminating his distinct, sharp jaw. "Enlighten me,” I stated. I wasn't asking because I was intrigued. I was asking because I was hoping to keep Amon talking, either to find out more information about him to store away for later, or in hope that someone would overhea

*Gwen’s POV*It took a while for me to come to again—my body was weak, depleted. I could barely feel anything. But I could hear, gradually, and when it all came into focus, I saw Darick’s eyes, staring at me, brilliantly."Hit bit her! That fucker bit her! I'll kill him, dammit!" Darick leaned over me and examined my wound. He was bleeding all over, and small droplets from his body spilled onto my chest. I opened my mouth to speak, stopping Darick in his tracks. But nothing came out. He waited, frantically, as I tried again. When I spoke, it came out gravelly, and sharp."I-I'm burning, Darick. My whole body feels l-like it's on fire. You have to get me to a h-hospital,” I pleaded. I grabbed Darick's arm and placed all my focus on his eyes. "Please, don't let me die." At this, Darick lifted me in his arms and raced to the cellar. Over his shoulder, I saw Viktor trailing close behind us. I had never been in the cellar, but I remember Isabella letting me know it was whe

*Darick’s POV*Fuck. What was I thinking kissing Gwen? I couldn’t allow myself to get attached to her. She was my hostage, and I still didn't know what I would do with her. I opened my closet and perused through the different outfits, contemplating what to change into.But my mind quickly wandered back to Gwen.Her lips were as soft as cotton and tasted sweeter than blood. It took everything in me to pull away—to leave her there…No! Caring for her would endanger both of our lives. I had to pull myself together. I grabbed my black outfit and walked to the mirror. I wondered if maybe Gwen was here for a reason. Out of all the women in the world who could have broken into my home, it was her. A gorgeous journalist with pure blood, blood so pure it could reject a blood oath. In the wrong hands, it was dangerous. In the right hands, it could save lives.A knock on my bedroom door startled me out of my daze."Darick, We need to have a meeting. The men are fighting am

*Darick’s POV*No one moved a muscle as they waited for Amber to regain her composure and deliver her verdict.But when she did, all heads snapped to Godfrey—fangs bared and eyes red.Godfrey growled. “You bitch!” he yelled. Then, his attention turned to me. “I did what I had to save the Blood Brothers! Darick has lost his way and is no longer fit to be our leader. I invoke the Vampire Articles of Confederation!" Godfrey turned and looked at me with an evil smile on his face. I froze in my spot. "You what?" I knew exactly what he meant but I wanted to make sure I had heard correctly. The look on his face only confirmed it—he was doing this. The Vampie Articles of Confederation stated that under any circumstance in which the leader of any congregation can have his abilities questioned, he can be challenged, and with the right amount of votes, ruled out.And now, Godfrey was enacting it, essentially starting a war between the Blood Brothers. "Yeah, that's right,”

*Darick’s POV*Shit, shit, shit.The one thing I didn’t want to happen, did. I ran after Gwen as she raced down the hallway. "Gwen. Please, wait," I grabbed her arm and turned her toward me. "Darick, I promise I won't say anything, just please let me go." Her hands were shaking, and she looked frightened, her eyes wide with fear."Gwen. I'm not going to hurt you," I whispered. I turned and saw Viktor staring at me. Godfrey's blood was still dripping from the stake. "He doesn't like me much. Does he?" Gwen said as she lowered her gaze. I looked back to see Viktor’s eyes on her, and once they saw me staring, they adverted and he continued to help clean up the mess I left behind.I sighed. "Come with me,” I stated. “I want to show you something." I grabbed Gwen's hand and led her to the library. She was silent the entire way and part of me expected her to run—but rather, she kept close to me, and trailed behind me. "It's not that Viktor doesn't like you. He

*Chelsea’s POV* The sun peeked through the curtains just as my alarm clock rang. I reached over and hit the snooze button, hoping to get more sleep, but my mind hadn't been at ease since I lost contact with Gwen a few days ago. I had tried contacting her several times, but her phone went to voicemail. I sat up, rubbed my eyes, and yawned.I reached across the nightstand, grabbed my phone, and checked my missed calls, text messages, and voicemails.‘Mom: Chelsea, it's the first day of fall. Don't forget to meet me at Starbucks for our fall ritual.’Ah yes, how could I forget our evening pumpkin spice mocha at Starbucks? My mother and I started this tradition when Starbucks released their first line of drinks for the fall. There was nothing like a hot pumpkin spice tea or mocha to warm my body after standing in the freezing cold temperatures of New York.‘Mr. Jeffers: Chelsea, I need you to work late tonight. We have hundreds of articles that need to go to print today. Come to

My Bloodthirsty Mafia Man Chapter 50 : It’s Never Over
*Gwen’s POV*When Darick returned home, I was ecstatic. No, even that’s not the right word. It’s been three weeks, and I still couldn’t find the right word. Either way, I was a wreck while he was gone. Viktor and Isabella told me why he was taken, and it made sense. The council was there to make sure the vampire world didn’t get exposed, but also to make sure that the vampires themselves, led with honor and dignity. That those who deserved to be in power, were. But they never told me what was happening to him because even they didn’t know, and that put my mind into a tailspin. Chelsea being there helped, but when Darick returned, I jumped into his arms and thanked whatever gods existed for his safety. Darick told us the details of what happened, how Lord Silas turned on him and would likely be stripped of his title, but even still, Darick didn’t blame him. Sure, he was angry, but he knew Lord Silas was doing it because he thought that Darick truly was unfit
My Bloodthirsty Mafia Man Chapter 49 : Summoned
*Darick’s POV*My eyes widened as every muscle in my body seized. Oh shit! I know that voice. It was Anton, an officer sent by the Vampire Council. Fuck, I knew this was coming. I just didn’t think it would be so soon.Jumping out of bed, leaving Gwen confused, I rushed to the closet and grabbed a pair of black slacks and my black shirt."Open the door, Darick, or I'll kick it down!” Anton warned as he smashed his fist against the door. “Darick, what the hell is—”I turned to Gwen, holding my pointer finger against my lips to indicate that she stay quiet. My mind was running a mile a minute, completely caught off guard. I ran to the door and paused to catch my breath as I grabbed the knob.Anton was standing there wearing black shades, a dark red leather jacket, and a black and red army uniform."Let me at least shower and get my clothes on, please." I had dried blood stains all over my body and smelled of sweat."No time for that. You
My Bloodthirsty Mafia Man Chapter 48 : Interrupted
*Gwen’s POV*"Gwen?" Darick called out to me, pulling me from my daze.“I’m not going anywhere,” I said suddenly, resolute in every decision I’d ever made.“What do you mean?” Darick asked as the light from the candles flickered in his eyes. "I'm saying I want to be with you, and I'm choosing to be with you. Not because of a blood oath, but because…well, because I love you, too." Darick’s eyes softened, and he reached over, delicately, and slid a hand under my chin. "But it's dangerous to be with me,” he whispered as he gazed into my eyes with an intensity that I had never seen before. "I've been put under a blood oath, bitten by an evil mafia lord, and I've watched multiple gruesome attacks. Why should I be afraid now if that didn't break me?"Darick studied me, his glowing eyes flickering back and forth between mine. "Who are you, Gwendolyn Jones?" he asked.I smirked, and without hesitation, he grabbed my face and pressed his lips against m
My Bloodthirsty Mafia Man Chapter 47 : Reunited
*Gwen’s POV*My eyes snapped open at the sound of a soft moan from beside me. I looked out the window to see it was still dark—it must’ve been well past midnight—and felt a strong kink in my neck as I jolted up."Chelsea? Chelsea, are you okay? Can you hear me? How many fingers am I holding up?" I asked, bombarding her with questions as I turned to her.Chelsea moaned, and without opening her eyes, weakly stuck her middle finger out toward me."Oh, god. You’re okay!" I laughed, wrapping my arms around her neck. When I pulled back, her gaze was fixed on me. It had worked. The blood, the IV fluids…everything. She was okay. "Gwen,” she tried, but she broke into an instant cough attack. I grabbed the water Isabella left on the nightstand and Chelsea happily took it. She handed the glass back to me, and I returned it to its original spot. “W-what happened? Where am I?" she asked. I didn't know where to begin. How was I supposed to tell my b
My Bloodthirsty Mafia Man Chapter 46 : Bittersweet
*Darick’s POV*My mind was running rampant. I couldn’t calm down, I couldn’t find peace of solace.The way Amon touched her…grabbed her. He was going to kill Gwen, and as a result, I was going to kill him.All I thought of was death. Pure and torturous death. Until I saw her when she stepped out of the car at the house. She came around to the passenger side door and opened it. The way she maneuvered Chelsea around her as Wendall helped…she was so delicate, so soft.And I felt my body finally relax, and my mind come back into consciousness. Before I knew it, I was racing toward Gwen and helping her and Chelsea to Gwen's room. Once Chelsea was in Gwen’s bed, Gwen’s attention fell on me. I could feel her assessing my wounds. They hurt, but I’d heal. I was more concerned about her.“Are you okay?” I asked.Gwen nodded. “Are you?”“I-I will be,” I answered, my voice still hoarse from all the screaming. “I’m going to check on the others. I’ll come back as soon
My Bloodthirsty Mafia Man Chapter 45 : Rekindling the Flames
*Gwen’s POV*My heart raced as Jasper inched closer to the door. Shit, I needed to say something, and quick."Wait!" I shouted. "I-I, uh, wanted to say I wish I could have been able to go with you the night you tried to kidnap me." I bat my eyes and bit my bottom lip. I had to do something to try and stall for time. Amon’s eyebrow raised, and he lifted a finger to stop Jasper. "Really?" "Yeah. I’ve realized…I want to be with a big, strong, sexy vampire like you. After the way you took control at Darick’s…it’s all I’ve been thinking about.” "Well, I tried to show you what you were missing out on," Amon smirked, taking a step closer to me. He was so close, I could almost feel his breath on my face. It took everything in me not to step back—not to lose my cool."Hey, boss, don't you want—""Shut the fuck up!" Amon yelled, interrupting Jasper. I swore I saw Amon’s eyes flick for a second to red, and then he shook his head and re
My Bloodthirsty Mafia Man Chapter 44 : Operation Rescue
*Darick’s POV*Viktor turned off the van headlights and slowly approached the back entrance of what used to be our headquarters. My stomach churned each time I saw what used to be our territory. I could still picture the community of vampires laughing together during an evening event.I shook my head. Now wasn’t the time to get sentimental. Gwen and Chelsea’s lives were on the line. I grabbed my walkie-talkie and contacted Amber, who was scanning the area a few miles away."Amber. Come in. Do you copy?”"I can hear you, Darick. Are you guys in the tunnel yet?" she responded. "No. We just arrived. I know you're far out, but how are the skies looking?" The question was code for if there were any rival vampires out to make sure our path was clear. We also didn't know if Amon had any systems that could track our frequency."Skies are clear tonight, Darick," Amber responded."Roger that. I'll get in touch with you soon.""Ok. Be safe. I won't b
My Bloodthirsty Mafia Man Chapter 43 : It’s Time
*Gwen’s POV*I waited, staring into Isabella’s eyes. She didn’t speak for what seemed like an eternity.Isabella inhaled deeply and sighed."I don't know much about breaking blood oaths, but I was told your master can break them, if they know how. When Viktor first told me what Darick did to you, I searched for the book in the library to see if there was another way to break the blood oath because I wanted to set you free, but I couldn't find anything."My eyes widened in awe. "You were willing to do that for me, despite not knowing me?"She nodded. "Yes, because I disagreed with Darick bonding you two for life. There were other ways he could have kept you here without using that method. Viktor didn't agree with what Darick did either. It was the source of a lot of tension between them when you first arrived.""I thought Viktor hated me…" I said, meeting her eye.Isabella licked her lips and paused for a moment. "Well, he wasn't pleased about you brea
My Bloodthirsty Mafia Man Chapter 42 : Hard Decisions
*Darick’s POV*I stormed into my office and began tearing through papers and books. I needed to formulate a plan of some sort—one that would help save this Chelsea woman, and also protect Gwen. To be honest, after what she said to me, I didn’t know why I was still helping her.But I was.I growled. Situations like this are why I don't get into relationships. I knew the minute I started having feelings for Gwen, her life was going to be in danger. Love was a weakness, and arsenal for your enemies. It was even worse as a vampire.Edward once told me love would be the death of vampires. We aren't made for love, only lust. We are demonized and shunned—we'll never be accepted. I should have listened to Edward. But here I was, searching the room for answers to help someone who had already turned her back on me.To top it all off, I’d be getting a summons from the Elders soon regarding the last fight. Too many issues had gotten out of my control under my leadership. Ther
