Eliana POV

“Eliana?”

The man who looked so strangely familiar looked at Lorenzo, his purple eyes burning with unbridled anger.

“What is she doing here, Lorenzo?” The older man barked.

Lorenzo looked startled, his face turning pale as he took a step backward. “I… I…” he stammered, looking from me to the older man. “Don Carnera, I had no idea. I'm sorry, this was a mistake.”

The two men who remained at the fireplace stared at me as if they were dissecting every inch of me with their critical eyes.

“What is the meaning of this, Luigi?” The man with a Scottish burr asked, scratching his chin through his messy beard.

Luigi Carnera? My mind mulled over the name, feeling as if it were important for some reason. Luigi Carnera… Car-ne-ra… Butcher?

“Oh my…” even Ayla was at a loss for words as I slowly pieced together the information.

“Out!” Luigi shouted, the two men at the fireplace jumping in fright at the anger in his single word.

Like scared sheep, the men filed out of the room,

    Eliana POVI wouldn't have imagined that it was possible for the temperature in a room to drop so suddenly- but it happened. The moment the words “sister” were out of Luigi’s mouth, I felt Lorenzo turn to ice. “Wh…wh… what are you saying?” I stammered, my hands gripping the armrests on the chairs until my knuckles turned white. Lorenzo’s hands slipped from around my neck and he walked to the other side of the room as if he were trying to get a bit of space between us. I couldn't see what he was doing, but the frigidity of his attitude couldn't be missed.“I'm saying that you're my daughter,” Luigi responded in a far too blasé manner. It was almost as if he hadn't just up and disappeared on my mom before she even gave birth to us! He didn't have a single iota of remorse for not being part of our lives. Apparently the look on my face was enough to warrant him giving an explanation. “Your mother was young and innocent. I couldn't understand why the fates assigned her to be my mate, bu

    Eliana POV“Ah, you're awake,” Luigi’s gravelly voice startled me as my eyes fluttered open and I bolted upright in bed, clutching the covers to my chest. “What are you doing here?” The words shot out of my mouth before my brain could process the situation. The man sat on the foot of the bed, his observant eyes taking in every move I made. “Well, I was waiting for you downstairs but I'm not a very patient man. Your mother always used to chastise me about my impatience,” there was a hint of a smile on his lips but it vanished as quickly as it came. “When you did not appear when the rest of the men came for breakfast, I presumed you were still hiding out and I came to check on you.” “I was sleeping,” I said, stating the obvious. He chuckled, his purple eyes lighting up with his laughter and he instantly became handsome - somewhat like a younger version of Elijah. In fact, if I removed the moustache, he'd be the splitting image of an older Elijah. I'm not sure why I didn't notice it

    Eliana POVLuca's voice seemed to carry through the entire house, apparently causing alarm if the sound of doors opening and slamming shut were anything to go by. My heart beat a bit faster at the sound of his voice and I wished I had a mirror to check my appearance in. There was a knock at the door and someone tried to open it before realising it was locked. “I'm coming,” I called out and rushed to the door to open it. Lorenzo leaned against the wall and snorted, “don't say that too loudly. Prince Charming might think you're having a wonderful time up here and leave you.” It took a few seconds before I linked his comment to my “I'm coming”. I rolled my eyes at him and crossed my arms. “What do you want?” “I'm here to fetch you. Boss is in negotiations with Loverboy, he wants you in the next room in case things get… rowdy,” Lorenzo said with a smirk. I nodded and followed him meekly toward the stairs. Knowing that he was my half brother was rather unsettling and I didn't really

    Eliana POV“Here is my deal - mate and marry my daughter, or you die.”I don't know who was more shocked by the deal - Luca, myself or Lorenzo. We all shouted together “what?”, “are you crazy?”, and “excuse me?”“You heard me,” Luigi responded with a smirk. “Either I gain a son-in-law or I gain another notch on my sword.”Lorenzo shook his head, muttering under his breath as he moved to lean against the wall. I couldn't understand a word he said but the general tone was that he was rather surprised by his father's suggestion. “You didn't even know me twenty-four hours ago, and now you're planning on using me for your own goals?” I asked Luigi, astonished.“Eliana, you're intimate with this man, no?” Luigi asked, not bothering to wait for a reply judging - the faint blush on my cheeks was answer enough. “I do not want this idiot you have for a mate to make the same mistake I did. So he will either mate you and do this whole relationship thing properly, or he will die for ruining the h

    Luca POVI watched her father's face as my teeth sunk into his daughter's flesh, her blood mixing with my saliva. Carnera's face was stoic, unemotional even, yet his eyes gave away the triumph he felt. He'd just caught his biggest rival's son as a son-in-law and ally, and he clearly felt as if he were on top of the world. On the other side of the family spectrum, Lorenzo was seething beside me. I wondered if I'd made a new enemy, or if he would turn his hatred to his father instead. Either way, he was one I would be watching from afar. It's not as if he had any brotherly feelings toward Eliana, so nothing would stop him if he decided to kill her in retribution for his deceased mother. I remembered that day clearly - the day my father had come into the house and bragged loudly that he'd found a way to cripple Carnera. It was only in the following days that he'd discovered that the woman he held in a cage in the warehouse in Portoscuso wasn't his enemy's mate, but instead his mistress

    Eliana POVI was sitting on the loveseat, staring out the window at the moonlight reflecting off of the ocean when I heard a knock on the interleading door to Luca’s room. It opened without me saying a word, Luca slipping quietly into the room. “You didn’t come down for dinner,” he said, his voice was harsh and I was a bit taken aback by it. “I wasn’t hungry,” I replied, equally coldly. He said nothing, just stared at me as I looked through the window. When he finally moved, he went to the fireplace and lit it, the warmth of the fire casting a golden glow throughout the room. The light caught Luca’s muscular chest and I had to turn away quickly as the memories of running my hands over those hard contours threatened to replay in my mind. That was a dangerous avenue to go down. “There is an interesting discovery I have made in the few hours since I marked you,” he said slowly, coming to stand behind me. “I can feel when your emotions are in turmoil.” His fingers ran up my shoulder

    Eliana POV“Do you, Luca Eduardo Castello, take Eliana Marino as your mate, wife and Luna?” The ancient priest's voice quivered as he spoke in Italian, clinging to his cane as if it were his lifeline. “I do,” Luca's rich voice was only loud enough for the small group of people who had gathered to hear. The old man smiled a wrinkled grin as he nodded and winked at Luca, “you may now kiss the bride.” Luca grabbed me and dipped me low, startling me as I clutched his shoulders for support, his kiss claiming me in front of everyone. The story of our mating had quickly spread through the upper ranks of the pack, Nina and Giovani were probably the only ones who were not happy with the news though. Enzo and Valenti grinned broadly, Nico and his mate smiled and nodded at us when we walked past them to the main doors of the ballroom I hadn't even known had existed. Even the Doctor and a nurse had come up to the packhouse for our ceremony - bringing my brother who was weak but certainly more

    Eliana POV“Honey, I'm home!” I called out as I opened the door to my Cambridge flat and dumped my bags on the floor. I was greeted by Cassie squealing as she launched herself at me and wrapped me in a gigantic hug. “Fucking finally!” She exclaimed, picking up a bag and carrying it with her as we made our way to our shared bedroom. “I'm so super sick of my own company!” She put my bag on my bed before she grabbed me again and squeezed me. “It's good to be back,” I agreed, collapsing on my bed. “And you can't tell me you haven't enjoyed having this place free to be a love den for you and the new loverboy.”She grabbed my pillow and hit me with it, laughing. “Marco isn't like that. He's such a gentleman, it's been such a great change from my usual type. His friends are complete and utter pricks, but he's such a sweetheart so even when he asks me to hang out with them, it's tolerable.” “So, when do I get to meet him?” She chewed on her bottom lip and shrugged her shoulders. “Dunno.

    Chapter 2Cassie POVI ignored the feeling of being watched, knowing that it was too late to run now. There was no running away from someone like Vasilios. Even the first time had been a bitch of a task, and I'd had Eliana and Yvonne's help to do it. Now, I was as good as alone and there was no fucking way I'd manage it. “Whiskey, neat,” I heard his voice like silk, as he gave his order to Jessie. I watched out of the corner of my eye as he leant casually against the bar, his eyes glued on a pair of ladies who were dancing seductively against each other. “Yes, sir,” Jessie replied, and I swear she used her arms to push her gigantic breasts together, trying to entice him. Only the Vasilios I remembered was impossible to entice. He was practically a walking, talking statue, trained from the moment he turned eighteen to be the alpha he was born to be. Not that he was alpha yet - although, a lot can happen in three years, so perhaps he had in fact become alpha in the time I was away.

    Chapter 1Cassie POV“Show me your tits!”The creepy middle-aged guy shouted again at me as I swung around on the pole. He picked up a shot and downed it before he slammed the glass down on the table, running his hand over his shiny bald head. I ignored him, like I always did. The more wasted Gerald was, the more he'd shout and the quicker he'd get kicked out. “Come on, sexy! I came to see your tits!” He shouted again, and I hid a smile when I watched Ms. Ho summon the bouncer. Cue the shouting in three, two, one. I flipped upside-down into the “Russian Layback” pose and held it as Gerald started shouting about the lack of flesh in the club. “Third time this week. I don't know how many times the guy has to be told that he's got the wrong place,” Glitter said as she passed my podium with a tray of drinks for a corner table. She was right about that. What he was needing was a hooker, not a stripper - especially not a stripper in a bikini bar where flesh was served tastily clad in b

    Eliana POVThe giggles of the little girl filtered through the house, bringing a smile to my face. It seemed as if it were yesterday when I had told Luca that we were expecting a baby, and now we were about to celebrate that little baby's second birthday.“Papà!” Gianna squealed just as the two of them burst into the kitchen, Luca holding the toddler on his shoulders. “You're wrinkling up her dress,” I warned him with a stern expression plastered on my face. He shrugged nonchalantly, eliciting more giggles from Gianna. “So? She's two, no one is going to expect a perfect outfit from a two year old. Just wait until she gets her hands on the cake.”I guess dressing her up in a satin white dress wasn't the smartest idea, but I had wanted her to look like the little princess she was - at least to her father and myself. “Are your parents coming?” Luca asked, lifting Gia from his shoulders and setting her firmly on the floor. “They will be late, as always,” I responded, handing him a tray

    Cassie POVLong after Yvonne had gone to her hotel room, Vasilios had disappeared to his own apartment and Enzo had crashed in the spare room, Luca and I got a chance to finally be alone. “It seems like I cannot let you out of my sight without you getting into some sort of trouble,” he sighed as he fell back onto the bed and yawned.“It's not my fault I'm a magnet for weirdos and creeps,” I grumbled, wrapping my robe tightly around me. Luca raised himself up on his elbow and watched me through hooded eyes, “I'm hoping that my mere presence will be enough to chase those types away. I'm going to be the only man to touch that gorgeous body of yours until death do we part.” I giggled and joined him on the bed, fitting into his arms as if I belonged there - and I guess I did. “Who would have thought, that night when I messed coffee all over your table, that we would be where we are now?” I said softly, my fingers threading through his hair. He chuckled with a smirk on his face. “In my

    Eliana POVLuca passed me a cup of tea as I curled up on the couch of his London flat, waiting for news from the hospital about Elijah’s surgery. Vasilios had made sure that the top surgeon on his payroll was part of the surgery, not trusting the council's doctors in the least. “He will be okay,” Luca said softly, reassuring me for probably the thousandth time.Vasilios grunted from the other side of the living room, as if disappointed that I didn't trust his man. Well, either that or he was still angry at me that I refused to tell him where Cassie had gone. Probably the second option.There was a knock on the door seconds before it was flung open and Enzo waltzed into the apartment as if he owned it, Yvonne close on his heels. “If you wanted to give up your alpha title, there are easier ways,” he told Luca with a whack on the back. Luca shoved him playfully, “I thought it would be more fun this way.”Yvonne rolled her eyes and collapsed onto the couch next to me, gripping my hand

    Luca POVA scream ripped from Eliana's mouth the second we heard the explosion, before her screams turned to heart wrenching sobs. I pulled myself up and tried to move toward the door to see what had happened, but she grabbed my hand, fear shining brightly in her eyes.“I'm just going to check out what has happened,” I tried to tell her reassuringly. “I'll be right back.” “I'm coming with you,” she clambered to her feet. “I'm not staying behind in this house for another second longer than I have to.”Gripping my hand, she followed me outside, through the kitchen door and into the small, enclosed courtyard. I could smell the blood before I could see it, the metallic scent unmistakable. “Stay here,” I commanded Eliana, not entirely sure what I'd discover when I walked through the arched doorway into the garden a few metres away.She clung to my arm, seemingly not registering my words. Slowly, I pried her fingers from my arm and forced her to sit down on an ancient looking rocking chai

    Eliana POVMy head pounded like I'd been beaten severely, and I struggled to pry my eyes open. There was laughter echoing in my head and making the headache a thousand times worse. With a groan, I pushed myself up into a seated position as my vision became more clear and I could see what seemed like an extremely old kitchen. Extremely old and extremely dirty.“Ah, look who has decided to join us,” I heard Marco laugh before he kicked out at Luca's outstretched legs. “Guess I'll be able to start my fun sooner than I thought.”Luca growled and launched himself forward, only to yank the table we were apparently tied to with him slightly. “Nah ah ah, alpha. I'd hate to have to waste more tranquilliser on you. Your little stunts at my warehouses have left my stocks rather low,” Marco huffed, folding his arms like a sulking child. “Why are you doing this, Marco?” I asked, desperate for answers.He laughed and shook his head. “Oh, dearest Eliana. You missed my big confession to my big brot

    Luca POV The moment I felt the ground shudder under Bruno’s paws, I knew we had fucked up. The bastard knew we were coming and he was ready for us. And then I heard his laughter, that maniacal laughter that could only come from the mouth of a mad man. “Welcome to my humble abode,” he laughed, circling the cage cautiously. Elijah’s wolf was frantic, launching himself at the bars again and again until I was sure that blood would start to pour from his snout at any moment. He continued until Marco slammed his hand against the cage and shouted. “Enough, you mongrel. Didn’t you learn the last time you were in a cage that it is pointless to fight it?” It didn’t work though, and Elijah continued to launch himself at the bars until Marco went into a shed and returned with a gun, aiming it at the other wolf. Eliana’s wolf panicked and tried to grab Elijah’s wolf by the scruff of its neck, but he was too strong and threw her off of him with ease. Marco aimed the gun and pulled the trigger,

    Eliana POV“I won't rat out my friend,” I said for probably the thousandth time in the last twenty-four hours. Luca raised his eyebrow at me in the rear view mirror before he sighed loudly and turned to my brother in the passenger seat.“Has she always been this stubborn?” He asked.Elijah chuckled and nodded, “pretty much so. She was the challenging child when we were growing up.”I huffed and folded my arms, ignoring the two in the front of the car. “Vasilios is going to find her one way or another, so all you'd be doing is reducing his anger at her when he does find her,” Luca said, changing tactics slightly. It didn't work. “He'll be angry either way, and if I said something she'd be angry with me instead,” I said boldly. “Now can we drop it? I'm not going to tell you where Cassie is and that's the end of the story. She's safe, she's happy and that's all you'll ever hear from my lips on the matter.” Luca shook his head in disbelief before he fixed his eyes on the road ahead a
