Cassie POV“What do you mean Vasilios left with Amber?” I almost screamed at Reya. Reya flinched and stepped backward before she recovered from the sheer force of my anger. “I was up early to check on Reza - she hasn’t been sleeping well lately. Anyway, I was checking on her when I heard voices outside my bedroom window. I looked out and saw Vasilios putting bags into his car, and then he opened the door for Amber to climb in and they both drove off.” I know people always say that they feel hot rage, but the rage I felt wasn’t hot. It was as cold as ice as I calmly thanked Reya and walked back to my bedroom. I pulled my suitcase from the cupboard and packed my belongings neatly into the bag in a somewhat robotic manner. Grabbing my phone from the nightstand, I texted a quick message to Elle before removing my sim card and throwing it onto the bed. I knew Vasilios would come after me, and the last thing I wanted was to see his stupid face. I was just a toy to him, something for him

Vasilios POVI pulled up outside the packhouse and smiled to myself, eager to see Cassandra again.The two weeks away from her had given me some time to contemplate life, and I realised that I wasn't going to be able to let her go at the end of the six month deal. ***The morning I had been called away, I had been watching her sleep when my phone started ringing in my pants as they lay on the floor. I moved quickly, picking up the phone. “Vasi, I need your help,” I heard Luca's serious voice through the phone, the sound of crying in the background. I glanced over at Cassandra's sleeping face before I slipped into the bathroom and closed the door. “What's wrong?” I asked Luca in a hushed voice. “It's Enzo. The team of mercenaries he hired have sold him out to a group of radicals who hate our kind.”I could hear the tension in Luca’s voice. “Shit. Tell me what you need me to do.”It wasn't foreign to come across fanatic humans who had learned about werewolves' existence and hated

Cassie POVHave you ever had a moment when you’re suddenly struck by how badly you fucked up, and yet you have no idea how you can fix the mistake you made? Well, that was basically a summary of my life at that point. I was sitting at the kitchen table, staring into my bowl of oatmeal when Damian walked into the room, dressed to impress in a black suit and black shirt. “Have you even eaten any of that?” he questioned with a scowl.“I don’t feel like it,” I replied honestly, pushing the bowl away from me. “Every time I bring the spoon to my mouth I feel like gagging.”Damian’s scowl softened and he grabbed a pack of ginger biscuits from the kitchen cupboard and set them in front of me. “You’ve got to eat something, before I get my arse kicked by both the doctor and Vasilios for starving you,” he commanded sternly. “And don’t give me that morning sickness bullshit, I can see right through you Cassie Kythira.” “I’m not Kythira anymore,” I almost whispered, wallowing in my own despair.

Cassie POVDamian had tried - and failed - to persuade me against helping out, but he had eventually thrown his hands in the air proclaiming “well, I’m not paying you,” before he disappeared into his office, leaving me with a rather amused Terry and Benny. The guys seemed to be excited to have me back and kept throwing hints that it was “where I belonged”, and I have to admit that I felt more at ease there than I had in months. I even felt at ease when I felt, rather than saw, Vasilios step into the club. My awareness of him had certainly heightened, and I can’t be sure if it was because I was in love with him or not. “How about a tequila and your number, sugar?” a guy with slicked back hair and a gold chain around his neck breathed in my direction. I smiled politely and poured him his drink, not bothering to even speak to him as Benny took over seamlessly and finished the guy’s order. “Has that guy been bugging you?” Greg asked as he pulled up beside me, a frown on his face. I

Cassie POVBy the end of my shift, I felt as if my stomach had been tied in knots as the realisation dawned on me that Vasilios was probably going to take me somewhere to talk. And that was more terrifying than facing a firing squad. The bouncers started doing a sweep of the club, guiding people to the door as the DJ shut down his system. I saw Greg tapping on Vasilios’s shoulder, scowling at him for not leaving the club with the rest of the party-people. “He’s with me, Greg. Damian knows he’s waiting for me here,” I called out, and Greg looked at me with a shocked expression before he glanced toward Damian as he stood on the stairs to his office. Damian came down the stairs and walked up to Vasilios, a slight smile on his face as he gripped Vasilios’s hand. “Apologies for not greeting you when you entered, Kythira.”“You were busy, Costa,” Vasilios acknowledged. “I understand the trials of this sort of business.” The two men seemed to be more amicable than they had been the last

Cassie POVVasilios stood up, his face revealing nothing in his stone-like expression as he looked down at me. “I have loved you since the first time I laid my eyes on you, the scrawny baby who screamed louder than any other baby I had ever seen. I was your protector, your friend, your confidant, filled with brotherly love and affection.”He reached out and touched my cheek, the warmth of his hand spreading across my face as he continued.“Somewhere along our teenage years, that brotherly love turned into something else and I was ashamed that I was thinking of you in that way. The contract when you turned thirteen just solidified my displeasure at the situation I had been forced into - just to keep my father happy.”He abruptly let go of my cheek and my flesh turned cold as his eyes hardened. “I knew I had to chase you away, and just like that, you became unattainable. The woman I wanted but couldn't have because you were wolf-less and I couldn't possibly have a wolf-less Luna.” Va

Vasilios POV“You're not really going to reject her, are you?” Amy asked with a serious expression on her face as she slid a tumbler of whiskey across the table to me. I shook my head, gratefully accepting the glass. If I were completely honest with myself, I'd barely managed to get those disgusting words out of my mouth. “I said what I did to make her realise that I wasn't playing a game. I love her, Amy, but I can't keep looking over my shoulder for signs that she will disappear again,” I admitted softly. She pulled out the chair opposite me and sat, a slight pout on her heavily made up face.”I can’t believe that she hadn’t even told me that she was back.”I lifted the glass and pressed it to my forehead, as if the alcohol was going to magically ward off the headache which threatened to spread through my entire skull. “She probably didn’t want you to tell me that she was here,” I mused before I took a sip of the amber liquid, enjoying the burning sensation as it trickled down my

Cassie POVI guess that old saying about hindsight being twenty-twenty was pretty damned accurate in my situation. After my rather blunt phonecall with Elle, I lay in bed in the dark and thought about the last ten or so years of my life. There were definitely things that Vasilios was guilty of, but I would be lying to myself if I said that I was perfectly innocent too. One week to prove to him that I loved him and wanted to spend the rest of my life with him. It seemed like an impossible task when he was clearly so upset with me that he was even considering rejecting me. But he didn’t. He had had a thousand and one opportunities to be free of me, and yet he didn’t actually utter the rejection, and it made me question if he meant it at all. “He loves you, you stupid idiot,” I muttered to myself, flinging off my duvet and officially giving up on trying to sleep. The sun was already high in the sky and so I wasn’t entirely surprised when I ran into Damian’s companion in the kitchen, w

Chapter 2Kat POVI pressed my ear to the door of the suite on the third floor of the Palazzo Hotel, hearing the steady breathing of the occupant inside. He must be fast asleep - just how I wanted him.“This should be easy,” I whispered to myself as I pulled the lock picks from where I had hidden them in my hair.The hotel had been deserted as I had made my way through the foyer and hallways, as it should be at 3am. Only a sleepy looking desk clerk had possibly seen me, but I think the man was too busy scrolling through reels on his phone to even realise that I had snuck in.Not exactly the kind of service you would expect to find at a five star hotel, but I was glad for it. Within a few seconds, I had the door unlocked. With a slightly proud smile, I slipped off my shoes and pushed the door quietly open before I snuck inside. The room was lavishly decorated and my bare feet sunk into the thick carpet. Exquisite paintings hung on almost every wall and I had to stop myself from pullin

Chapter 1Kat POVI was drowning. The water flooded my lungs as I tried to scream, my clothing dragging me down into the dark depths as shadows hovered above the water. Bright lights flashed across my vision like fireworks as my lungs burned, and then it all went black.“Wake up, Kat, it’s just a nightmare.” I felt a hand press against my mouth and my arms flew out to ward off my attacker. “Stop screaming before you wake up the others!”Giulia’s face was barely visible in the dark room, her warm brown eyes filled with sisterly concern.I nodded my head and she removed her hand, brushing my hair from my face just like a real big sister would do. “Was it the same nightmare again?” she whispered, careful not to wake up the four children who slept on mattresses on the floor.“Yeah,” I whispered back, shivering as the cool night air cut through my pyjamas which were drenched with my own sweat. Giulia tugged the thin blanket up under my chin, looking after me just as she had done ever sin
My Mafia Mate: Escaping the Alpha Epilogue
Cassie POVI stood watching the ceremony with tears in my eyes as Aleko took over the Alpha title amidst cheers from the pack. Once the shock of Vasilios stepping down had worn off, the elders of the pack were elated to have Aleko back again. The giant man had begun helping with training the younger wolves, and had even gone as far as to redo the roof of one of the ancient widow’s homes that Vasilios and I hadn’t even known was leaking. All in all, he was far more suited to the role than Vasilios ever had been. And we had come to the conclusion that Vasilios had just wanted to be Alpha because that is what had been expected of him his whole life. Vasilios had formed a strong bond with Aleko in just a few short months, and the man had quickly become like a father figure to him. In fact, no one was surprised when we named our own son Niklos Aleko after his great uncle. The baby boy had launched himself into our lives a month early, but according to Luna Delia it was probably a good th

Cassie POV“I wonder why Damian is being so secretive about who he wants us to meet,” I mused aloud as we drove to Damian’s house. Vaslios was driving at a snail’s pace, and I had to resist the urge to take over. The man had been driving me insane over the last few days with how over protective he was being - “No Cassandra, you can’t lift that. You’ll hurt yourself.”, “No agapití mou gynaíka. You shouldn’t be straining yourself. You need to rest.”I was seconds away from murdering the man. I guess it was cute that he was trying to protect me, but I was made of tougher stuff and I didn’t feel like being imprisoned in my own apartment because the man thought the stairs were too dangerous. “I guess it won’t matter since I will die of old age before we get there,” I muttered under my breath. Vasilios snorted and rolled his eyes before he increased the speed by a fraction. Luckily we weren’t far from Damian’s house and as we drove up the driveway we could see another car parked. “Well

Vasilios POVI watched the screen as the doctor slid what looked like a product scanner across Cassandra’s stomach, not entirely sure what to expect. I’d always heard that foetuses look like little aliens, but to me it looked like perfection. “There’s the spine, and there you can see baby’s heart beating,” the doctor pointed out bodyparts on the screen which I could barely make out. It was a bit like those black blobs shrinks use to determine if you’re insane or not - only in this case I was trying to figure out my kid’s anatomy. My child. The thought was still so strange and yet so welcoming. “Are you wanting to know the gender?” the doctor asked. Before I could respond, Cassandra shook her head. “No. I want it to be a surprise.” As if having the kid in the first place wasn’t enough of a surprise, but I let her have her way. Either way the child was going to be loved beyond measure. If it was a girl, she would be my princess. I would treat her in a way that she would know what

Cassie POVVasilios and I collapsed onto the bed in the honeymoon suite of the hotel - the same one where I had lost my virginity to him. I chuckled when we had pulled up outside the Aman and he had shot me a strange look before he took my hand and guided me into the gigantic, minimalistic monstrosity.The honeymoon suite was on the top floor, and Vasilios lifted me into his arms and carried me through the door into the candle lit room, laying me gently on the petal covered bed before he collapsed beside me.Our wedding reception had been a blast, even with the very few guests attending. By the end of the night, Laryssa had pulled out a handy pair of scissors and had styled a fashionable knee-length dress out of my gown, and we had all danced to music played by Benny while Terry poured drinks into any glass that seemed slightly empty. The pair had celebrated my pregnancy and my nuptials in style, insisting that they be part of the celebration.Vasilios and I had been slightly surprise

Cassie POVIf someone ever tells you that you can’t organise a wedding in twenty-four hours, tell them that they’re wrong. By the time the sun rose the next morning, I was relaxing in my apartment with Elle and Laryssa, sipping mocktails and gushing about the gorgeous dress Laryssa had managed to get for me for an absolute steal. “So, Amy is on her way to pick up the bouquets we ordered and then she will come and dress here. Luca says the decor is already set up and that Damian’s chef friend is preparing what seems to be a twenty-course meal. We are all sorted,” Elle ticked off the to-do list on her fingers, smiling brightly. I took her and Laryssa’s hands and squeezed them slightly, “thank you for everything you have done for me. I really don’t think I could have pulled this off without you both.”Elle kissed my cheek and winked before she snuck off to call her mother-in-law so that she could check in with Gia - the kid was probably having the time of her life without her mother c
My Mafia Mate: Escaping the Alpha Chapter 103
Cassie POVI’m pretty sure that the nurses held a party the moment I walked out of the hospital. Not because I was a terrible patient, but because Vasilios was probably the most non-compliant family member the ward had ever experienced. He refused to leave my side, and only my father was able to make him leave for an hour, although he complained about that too and made my dad stay while he was away. Vasilios broke all the hospital rules; climbing into bed beside me, reading my medical chart, getting food delivered because he said hospital food didn’t have enough nutrition to feed both me and his baby. The guy was overbearing to put it mildly. But I didn’t mind in the least. Vasilios drove carefully through the city, and we spoke about our wedding plans. I was determined to be able to have a relaxed ceremony with just our close friends and family, where we could actually say our vows and mean it. Yes, I know that we weren’t technically divorced, but this ceremony was going to be the

Cassie POVI felt as if I was burning alive, the fire clawing at my chest as restraints held me down. I tugged on the rope which seemed to be emerging from my own arm, but that only caused screaming from the depths of the dark cave I was locked in. “Someone, help!” I thought I heard Vasilios’s voice, but then a sharp pain radiated from my arm and my world went dark once again. It seemed like just a few moments later that I woke up again, the pain in my chest more of a dull throb than the fire it had been. The room was dimly lit, but my eyes seemed to take a while to adjust to the light as I slowly became aware of my surroundings. The clinical environment and the drip poking out of my arm seemed to be enough clues to point to the fact that I was in hospital. The highly flattering hospital gown and catheter removed all doubts that remained. I tried to sit up and groaned as the fire burned through my chest again, and I was forced to remember that I had been shot. The last thing I re
