{CARA'S POV}

*

*

I wake up tangled in the chaos of blankets. My skin is bare, I'm naked and the air is heavy with the scent of sweat and something primal and dark; him.

The duvet lies discarded across the room like an afterthought. Every inch of me aches. It's a reminder of last night’s collision of anger, fire, and surrender.

And then, I feel it. His presence.

The shadow in the corner shifts, and my stomach knots. Edmondo. Always Edmondo. Standing there, silent. Composed. Watching.

“Mom?” The word tumbles from my lips, a slip of my subconscious searching for a shield. But it’s ridiculous. What could I possibly say to protect myself now?

He steps into the light. His eyes are dark and unreadable. “Your mother is in the land of the dead, Cara.”

I swallow hard. My voice betrays me, trembling as I mumble, “Good morning.”

“It’s noon,” he replies, his tone maddeningly even. Controlled. No trace of t

    {CARA'S POV}**The tension between the both of us is hot. And I have come to a conclusion that I can’t be in the same roomwith Edmondo without my heart racing and my panties getting wet. Well, the second part is actually a secret. Things have been going on in my insides and I really hate to think about it or let it show.He kisses me; but don't take it further. Just the kiss.I’m ready. I want him more than I ever imagined I would want anyone. I want him to have sex with me again. He was ever so gentle with me hours ago and I want to taste that feeling again.But he moves away. “Fucking seduce me, Cara. Make me hunger for you.”There. He made his demand. That's the only thing stopping us from sexing again.I don’t know what kind of seduction I can offer, but I know I have to try. Especially if I wanted that gentle side of Edmondo once again. It was addictive.I give ourse

    {EDMONDO'S POV}**The cold air bites at my skin, it's mostly cold here in the North. But the cold does nothing to distract me from the spectacle unfolding in front of me. Cara’s struggling.And it’s becoming painful to watch. She’s stumbling around like a damn rookie, tripping over her own feet. Clumsy as hell. The others circle her like sharks, waiting for her to fail. And to be honest, I’m not sure I care one way or the other.Her stance is all wrong. Her hands twitch at her sides. Her eyes darts here and there for no reason, no real focus. She doesn’t even know how to fall properly; just crumpling onto the ground every time she loses her balance. The others can’t help but laugh. But I don’t join them. I keep my arms crossed, leaning against the side of the training field.She’s not cut out for this. She doesn’t have the grit.Another shove, and she’s on the ground again.

    {CARA'S POV}**I’m a mess. Sweat clings to my skin like a second layer, mixing with the dust and sand that seem to have a death grip on me. The stench of it all; the grit, the sweat, the heat.. it's suffocating. My body is on fire from those falls. Every bruise is pulsing with pain. My face feels like it’s been ground into the earth. And my hair… God, my hair’s a tangled mess, sticking to me in all the wrong ways. But none of it matters, right? I’m supposed to get into a car with him, look the way I do, and pretend it’s fine.Well, Edmondo? He doesn’t care. Not one bit. He doesn’t even give me a chance to breathe before he motions for me to get in the car, like I’m some damn delivery… or an obligation he can check off his list. And you know what? Maybe I’m too tired, too beaten, too desperate for something, anything, different and new from this goddamn underworld shit.

    {GIOVANNI'S POV}**I sneak onto the grounds of the bunker stealthily stalk my way until I’m near the hallway that leads to that room. Shit. I should’ve brought a flashlight, but thankfully, I have good night vision. I could literally see in the dark.I stop a few feet away from the entrance to the room I had left the little girl days ago. Someone’s standing there: Marco. I freeze on the spot, my hands forming fists at my sides. What the fuck is he doing there? Didn't I keep Xhound in charge to keep eyes on her? My point is… Marco is one of the most fucking vicious amongst us,the Don's men.I approach Marco. “Why the fuck are you here?”“I could ask you the same thing, Giovanni. Shouldn't you be back in the Don's estate?” He narrows his eyes at me.I grunt at him and he repeats the same. He's daring me. Of course we are equals. Me being one of the D’Avi sons didn't count and why? It's

    {GIOVANNI'S POV}**She's shivering. The room is freezing, this is the fucking north. She's still in her panties. Alone. She shakes her head. I'm staring at her swollen chest and her head movement is barely detected by lost me. On a whim, I take off my leather coat. Not the actual best thing for warmth, but it will have to do.She cries out when I approach her, trying to protect herself with those small dainty hands. I move them out of the way roughly and put the coat on her. I wrap her ice-cold skin in the leathery material coated with my addiction and cologne.Her eyes follow mine fearfully. She's trying to find the reason why I'm being kind. Fuck me if I know. I just can't stand to think of her down here alone. Stupid. Honestly, I just want to fuck her. Truthfully. And the fact that today just made her eighteen has broken all the bounds to accomplish that wish."Did anyone hurt you

    {GIOVANNI'S POV} * * “Wait.” I exhale after what seems like ages, just as my hand lands on the door handle. I turn around excruciatingly slowly, staring her down. She doesn't shy away from me this time. Instead, she crawls over to me on all fours. My cock is enormous, thick and throbbing, by the time she's reached me. Fucking hell. Does she even know what she's doing to me? The La Rosa girl sits at my feet and looks up at me, her eyes begging me to stay. "What do you want?" I ask. My own personal brand of torture. I know it's hard for her to say it. Bbut I need to hear those words from her lips. "Tell me, bambina (little one)." "Stay," she says. Her lashes flutter open, then closed, then open again. She's nervous. "Stay for a while. I can't.. I can't be alone. It's my birthday, and I've been alone on my birthdays for too long. And what i

    {GIOVANNI'S POV}**I lift her up and she gasps. On an instinct, her legs wrap around my waist. I twist her arms behind her back with one hand, holding her up with the other."Are you going to try to get away now?" I breathe down her neck. "Are you going to fight me over what we both know is what you want, little baby girl?"She writhes against my body, desperate to get closer and farther away at the same time. I don't need to hear her moans to know how turned on she is. She's pressed up against me good, grinding that little pussy of hers on my crotch. Fuck, I can feel how wet she is now. She's going to leave a good fucked up memory in my mind, that's for sure."Tell me, bambina," I growl at her, my lips sliding down her neck gently. I graze her skin with my teeth, loving the vibrations from her throat against my lips. "Tell me what you thought about while you were alone down here."

    {INGRID'S POV}**The tension in the air is really palpable. The atmosphere is electric. I want him to touch me. I want him to do bad things to me. And I know it's so damn wrong, but I just can't resist. He's done something to me, definitely. He has messed with my head and played with my heart. All on the first day.It's like I'm the puppet and he's pulling on every one of my strings.He's breathing heavily, and he gently pushes down my panties until my hip bones poke out. I hiss as the air hits my skin. Mr. Giovanni groans when his fingers connect with my feverish body. "God," he says. "So fucking delicious. So damn wrong. I can't resist. I'm sorry, bambina, but I'm not even going to try to resist."With that, his fingers push off my white lacy panties and I arch my back, helping him along. What the hell am I doing? I don't even know him!Alarm bells are going off in my

    {INGRID'S POV}**The air inside the guest house in the clubhouse feels as stale as a musty basement, it's like it’s pressing in hard on me. The walls are too close. The furniture, too still.I’m curled into a ball, crying myself into nothingness in the same room. I felt bad, but everything feels different now. And it's because of him. Because of his words to me.‘I’m giving you five minutes,’ is all he says in the end. That was all he said before leaving me here, alone with the weight of it.Five minutes for what? To breathe? To collect myself? Or to decide what to do next? That time was never enough and couldn't be.I press my fingers against my temples. My mind is a mess. My pulse is erratic. I need to move. I need to get out of here.I grab a dress from the cupboard. It's good there's one there, even if it's bigger and longer. And so out of shape.I leave the room quietly and the place entirely.The moment my feet hit the ground outside, the cold air rushes against my skin, clear

    {GIOVANNI’S POV}**I shut the door behind me seeing to it that the slam echoes in both my ears and hers. My hands flex at my sides, my fingers tingling from where they had just been wrapped around her throat.She wanted me to hurt her. She fucking wanted me to hurt her. Punishment, hard sex... anything that would hurt her she wanted it.And for a second…. for one fucked up second, I almost did. I saw it in her eyes, that plea for something more than just words, something deeper, something that would cut through whatever storm was brewing inside her. And I could have given it to her.But I didn’t.I don't break little girls. Or maybe I do, but I don't want to break her. Also, I don’t indulge their self destruction. Not like that. Okay, maybe I do too but if and only if I should find interest in a little girl, which has never happened aside from Ingrid La Rosa. My jaw tightens, and I push the thought away. I move down the dimly lighted hallway. The weight in my chest is a familiar

    {INGRID'S POV}**“Maybe it’s because nobody will ever love me because of my past. Nobody will ever really touch me, no, not after someone else did. Nobody will ever let me know what it’s like to have a man fall in love with me for all time when my heart beats for someone else who doesn't even care. They wouldn’t, now would they? There's nothing good or lovely about me or my life.”His eyes widen on mine, and I see more than those emotions. Worse than hate or disgust. It's Pity. I see damn pity. It's directed towards me. And I hate that. “You need to get some fucking therapy and work on your self and mind,” he says, his hands still gripping tight on my wrists.“....” God I'm speechless. Really? Therapy?! What does he think of me? A lunatic? I have not lost my mind!He stares at my thighs, and I feel ashamed of them, so fierce in my pain. I have a low waistband on, which I made by myself because I feel bold wearing them, but he barely even notices. His attention is so fixed on my fla

    {INGRID'S POV}**I feel him nudge me from behind so I move away from the space close to the door. He steps forward and keys into the lock, opening the door and stepping in ahead of me. I enter. I don't even attempt to shut the door behind me after I enter, only fold my arms like a spoilt kid who is being grounded.He finds the light switch as soon as I'm in after him. He peeks out the door, his eyes checking out the neat little hallway before shutting the door. This is definitely a hotel room. No, more like a condo. But it's... unusual. There's a handmade tapestry of a dolphin breaching beside a boat hangs above the bed, and a photo of pirate colleagues on the deck sits on the kitchen counter. It isn't exactly the kind of decor I'd expect to find in a… sort of hotel condo room. But then again, life is full of surprises, and sometimes the most unexpected places can become the most memorable. So, the lady always in a yellow scarf who fed me on the street for a month before she die

    {INGRID'S POV}**I really am done with it. I am done with caring. Done with feeling. Done with living like some goddamn pushover. Maybe that punishment will really help in liberating me from this crappy stubbornness of mine and make me a better person that everyone will be satisfied with. Right?I mean, it isn't my fault I grew up to be like this, now is it?To the outside world I am a kid who should listen and be good, but my inside world is a pit of pain and memories of my lonely past. A pit of pain I’ve been breathing through in agonizing little gasps since I was a little girl trying to be good for people around to spear me some food, alms and some money. But now, I feel so fucked up, and used, and twisted with all these looks and words Mr. Giovanni especially throws at me. I've been hurt and is still being hurt by so much of the life I'm still holding dear.Yeah, I am done.And what is with all these? All these family shit, and more secrets. More secrets.

    {GIOVANNI'S POV}**I move. Silent. The door clicks shut behind me.In the mirror, I watch her freeze.Her shoulders tense first. Then her grip on the sink tightens, like she’s bracing for a hit.Slowly, so fucking slowly, she lifts her head. Our eyes meet in the mirror. Her pupils go wide, her throat tightens. What does she fucking know? What is she afraid of? Me? And yet, she doesn’t move.I step closer, watching the shift in her body. It's small movements, but still there. The way her breathing changes, the way her lips part like she wants to say something but the words won’t come.She still doesn't back away. So I move closer still.Her breath catches. She still doesn’t speak.She’s holding herself together, but I can see the tension in her arms, the weight of a thousand unspoken things pressing down on her. And I wonder, just for a second, how far she’s willing to push before I fucking break her to total obedience surrender to me.“Well, well, well,” I say. “I never expected to

    {GIOVANNI'S POV}**She asks for her father. She says she's here only and only to ask me of her father. Does she know that he is a monster? That he and his empire tore the happiness of Trento apart once. Edmondo's people who are also mine.. some bled to death, girls raped, a few murdered in the eyes of their own children and loved ones.I wonder how pretty little girl La Rosa will look when it is revealed to her just how tainted she and her now dead La Rosa empire is. I wonder how her eyes will glisten with tears as she stare up into the malice in mine when I break it to her what Edmondo and I did to them in return.I wonder how much I can make her pussy stretch for me before she screams when I force myself into her again.Shit. That was random. I'm crazy. I'm a crazy old man. Haha.It's funny, looking around me at all the people in this blue hue room. They don't even have the slightest idea of just how evil a monster I am amongst them. So many idiots… living their idiot lives, havi

    {GIOVANNI'S POV}**The ring display is full of light; fucking bright diamond reflections sharp like cut glass, bands of gold and platinum polished to a perfect gleam. Elise is to my right, examining a row of engagement rings with the focused eye of a woman who already knows exactly what she wants.I should be doing the same. After all she's my wife-to-be, right?Instead, my gaze drifts, tracking over the cases until it lands on a section that's further down. There's a different style that seems simpler, yet shiny and clear. It's a pretty section. My eyes skim over the sizes without thinking….. until I pause.Nine.It’s becoming a habit; assessing things that might look good on bambina, measuring them without needing to be told. I better not let it stay till it becomes old and hard to die. My fingers twitch, recalling something unbidden: the weight of a hand gripping mine in the dark of the bunker as I pound into her pussy. So small hands but steady and firmly gripping my shoulders

    {INGRID'S POV}**“You don’t look like an Irish lady either,” he counters.I arch a brow. “What do I look like?”He tilts his head slightly, studying me. “Like someone who’s waiting for a reason to burn this whole place down.”The air between us tightens. He has a good sense of humour. And he just called me a lady, not some bambina. Wow. It's weird.The white haired man makes a noise; something between a laugh and a knowing hum, but I don’t break eye contact. I don’t let Ronan think he’s got me figured out just because he threw out some poetic bullshit that happened to land close to the truth.Instead, I set my drink down, lace my fingers together, and give him the smallest, sharpest smile I can muster.“Good thing I left my lighter at home.”Ronan holds my gaze. His own mouth twitches like he wants to say something else. But before he can, the white haired man claps his hands together, breaking the tension. “Well,” he says, amused, “This is going exactly how I hoped.”I shoot him a
