MATEO’S POV~I watched him, ready for him to slip up, as Silvio’s gait shifted, he had already pulled Ariana behind him as though I was going to hurt her, which angered me, I've never thought of harming her, but torture was something she deserved, she was like a porcelain doll, if handled incorrectly, you will find her broken on the cold floor.“You are out of control Mateo! I understand your grief but…..”“My Grief?” Mateo cut him short, repositioning the gun to his face, “you know nothing of my fucking grief! your pathetic relative on my wedding day showed his displeasure for my bride, and a moment later, she was on the fucking floor!” I continued moving closer to him, I didn't fear him. He was insignificant to me, like every one of them.I'm the boss now.“There are other ways to show your grievances, Mateo, you cannot go about murdering our business partners, for a woman” Silvio retorted, cocking his gun in my face.The nerve of this rat! “My woman! And anyone who has anything to
I got hungry again in the middle of the night, I took light steps, I didn't want to wake my irritated family, since Silvio’s standoff with Mateo in front of the villa, papa had been extra irritated, but when he saw Mateo leave he smiled and hugged me tightly.This was a very unusual thing for my father to do.“You, my whore of a daughter have given me the solution to catch a stray rat finally” he whispered to me, my body felt cold. I knew at that moment chaos was about to happen and my father is its architect.I quietly tiptoed, opened the door of my room and a new bodyguard stared right in my face, I cleared my throat and straightened myself. “And you are?” I didn't see Lorenzo anymore, I figured he was sacked, and I felt instantly guilty.“Julio” he coldly replied, I'm certain he had heard about me and my escapade with Lorenzo.“Where is Lorenzo?” I asked adjusting my nightie around my body tightly, “Dead” he replied again coldly, I swallowed hard, poor Lorenzo, I can't push it p
Ariana Pov~How much do I COST?Am I livestock? my heart shattered into a million pieces as I heard the words leave his mouth, he looked calm and unbothered, like it was a casual thing to do but then again this is the mafia, women mean nothing but property to these men.“Mateo! I'm sick of you!” Silvio started, “You have crossed the line! I have been putting up with you” he paused“Where is Your stepbrother Emiliano, mysteriously gone isn't he? I know what you have done Mateo!,” Silvio thundered, the only thing separating Mateo’s neck from Silvio’s murderous hands were the guns pointing at the back of his head.“I don't think I heard you. Putting up with me!” Mate laughed and then just as quickly it disappeared, his face serious and his eyes filled with rage.“Remember Chiara……” Mateo asked, I was taken aback, he remembered her name.I watched out for Silvio’s expression innocently, his face had relaxed and he was quiet.I became curious instantly, what's happening?How does Silvio
Ariana’s pov~“If you don't love God I do! The only way you are getting this off me is to rip it off yourself!” I retorted this was starting to seem like some sort of humiliating episode I had been forced to participate in.“I'm not going to live like this! I don't know what deals you signed with my psychotic father! But I never wanted to marry you! You forced me literarily, you and my father! With an invisible gun pointing at my head!” I yelled and for a split second, I thought I saw Becky smile.Mateo glared at me from across the bed of his unconscious fiance.“Becky….” he started, rubbing her feet lightly with one finger“We have a cat and mouse chase on our hands,” he chuckled “This will be fun”“God doesn't mind, we are man and wife now, he created humans, and he has seen a lot worse than your body” he responded.“You are sick Mateo, you need to let me go, I don't want to be here!” I clamoured, “we can get a divorce right now,” I continued, his face changed into a scowl.“Divorce
Mateo’s Pov~Did I get her pregnant? Or is this some ruse by her father to control my territories?I can assure both of them that such would never happen, not on my watch.I told Julius to put her in the room beside mine, my mother’s old room, though I had it changed to fit her preferences, they did all that while we were getting married.I picked up a box decorated with gift wrap, put it under my arm and headed out of my quarters, I took a sharp left and in a matter of minutes, I was in front of Ariana’s door.I opened it and her eyes widened at the sight of me, she stood naked clutching her gown firmly around her body.“I know this is your estate, but if you are going to come into MY space, I would prefer you knock” she exclaimed, I looked at her in disbelief, this wasn't the little Ariana who left home at 18, her body had fully developed, I could see the outline of her full breast popping out of the sides. She is a woman now, and her mouth, sensual as it is, has become a thorn at
Ariana’s pov~The entire villa started to shake, as men trooped out from every corner of the house surrounding Igor and the men he brought.Mateo stood straight and clenched the railings of my balcony.“And who the fuck are you!” he inquired, his tone resonating with fury.“I'm Igor, and I heard the whore I'm looking for lives here, she stole from me!” Igor thundered and I shivered where I ducked.“There are no thieving whores here, you have the wrong place” Mate replied “I see you brought your protection so I know you are a man of some calibre, but I will not tolerate your sudden outburst in my home!” Mateo declared, “ I'm looking for a woman by the name of Cayenne, she’s an exotic dancer, she works in a club in Malta” I heard Igor say.I trembled, and my clothes started feeling tight around my body.“Someone from the town said I could find her here” he added.Someone from town? I saw Mateo gesture for me to come out of my hiding spot.“Why does Mr Igor have a picture of you and yo
Ariana’s pov~I looked out the window of the jet, wishing I could leave all this behind and hop on the next plane back to my life in Malta.Mateo’s hand grabbing my shoulder lightly brought me back to reality.With a loud thud, he sat opposite me, relaxing into the seat, he crossed his leg and interlocked his fingers.Then he glared at me again, with a sly and crooked smile plastered on his face, he said nothing and just continued to glare at me.He had been doing only that since Igor had told him my secret.“If you got something to say, Mateo, you should, rather than glare at me all the fucking way” I stated, his emerald glass eyes stared into my soul, he kept them fixed on me unwavering.Occasionally he would scan my body lick his lips and go right back to glaring at me.“You know I always thought you were something special, but a whore, I never saw that coming” he finally said, I sighed loudly, This again? Will I ever hear the last of it?“You need me to explain my job description
MATEO'S POV~“JUMP ARIANA! NOW!” I thundered, the terror in her face as she cried made me pissed, it broke my heart but it made me pissed.If this is how the rest of Don Rinaldi's daughters are then they are all spineless fucks.I shook her again as she bawled her eyes, “woman this is not my first plane crash and it will most definitely not be my last” I declared as I tried to pull Ariana’s hand where she clenched the side of the door, for dear life.“I am not jumping out of a fucking plane! I will not! You better throw me out your damn self!” she screamed as she kicked me in the knee repeatedly, I was enraged, “Do you want to die! Jump now!” I kept shaking her but she was surprisingly strong as she held on to the side of the door.“No!” she cried. “Don, the pilot says he is losing altitude and the plane will land badly” Julius whispered in my ear, in that moment I remembered Becky who had accompanied us, “what about Becky,” I asked, “she’s strapped tight to one of the bodyguards who
ARIANA’S POV~Mateo coming back has been a blessing, he left his life behind and he now lives with us on the island.But something kept bothering him, “Mateo what’s going on with you?” I asked handing him a cup of cocoa.Alessio came running in and he sat on his father’s knee, “papa ball” he requested.“Soon my boy” Mateo giggled excitedly,He finally told me everything, everything that weighed heavy in his heart, everything about his parent's death, to Becky’s revenge and what they were after.“He adopted me to find out if I had a key in my possession and I think it's the same key Fiona handed you the day of the shower” he concluded.“The key?”I hadn't thought about the key in so long, I'd kept it away, and it had bad memories attached to it.I got up and went in, it should be along my things.As I did I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror, only it wasn't me.She grinned from ear to ear as she motioned for me to come closer, and I did.“Cayenne” I started.“We finally meet, did
MATEO'S POV~The last thing I remembered was a gunshot piercing me before I landed on the ground, I awoke on a bed, I blinked and I felt a wet towel going over my hot body.I tried to get up, “Mateo, stop you need to rest” she started, i opened my eyes.“Micola?” I called, she smiled and took my hand in hers, “yes it's me, you sustained a serious gun wound” she stated, I winced in pain, and I tried to find the source.“At this point, I might as well be studied” I joked as I sat up.I coughed and blood followed.“Your lungs were affected, the doctors said you would have to cough out the rest of the clumps when you wake up, are you okay?” she announced.I nodded, “I'll be fine” She helped me sit straight on the bed rest and put a glass of water in my hand.I gulped it down in one go and gave it back to her, “micola” I started, she dropped the cup and looked away.“I'm sorry about the way we ended things, I just… it's different now. With everything, with…”“I get it” she interrupted, “yo
ARIANA’S POV~Don Argento couldn't believe it, his son was before him, he ignored his wife and daughter, slowly he walked toward Silvio who welcomed him.“I'm afraid I can't do that, Silvio, but I should start by welcoming you back from the dead” I applauded his bravery, I didn't care if I was a one-man army right now.“That deal should never have happened,” he continued.“No deal Silvio, I'm not selling my wife to you, I hate to break it to you but there’s bad news my friend” Mateo stated.My mind was made up after last night, there was no hope that he would ever change.He is always going to remain a beast, and now Silvio is back, from the dead.My hunch was right after all, and from the look on my proud father’s face, I could tell he was in on this. “Mateo, im asking you nicely, I have you surrounded, you should not have touched what was mine, you knew it and you did it anyways” Silvio flared.Mateo laughed, “she was never yours and she never will” Mateo boasted.His haughtiness i
ARIANA’S POV~The night of the party finally arrived, micola had dropped her resignation that morning and an air of dread lingered around it.We never found Estella, somehow Emiliano had sneaked her out, along with my father’s written will.I shuddered under the weight, Scared to face the unknown.Im not going to let everything I've lived for go down the drain, because I was so distracted.I had to keep up the pretences with Ariana. The only ones who knew about it were the three of us.Three of u except Fiona... I have to find her before she tells someone else, I always knew she would turn on her in the end, she’s a woman after all.I wondered what happened, but that wasn't important right now.I headed upstairs, a box in my hand, to the room I once shared with Ariana, I opened the door and there she stood by the window.She rubbed her curved belly and I could her muttering to herself before she acknowledged her presence.A child I'd been looking forward to calling mine, my heir… all
MATEO’S POV~I saw micola on the way back to my office, I knew Julius had left earlier so I motioned for her to join me.As he closed the door to my office I pulled her to me and devoured her hungry lips with a kiss.She gasped for breath as she held on to me for balance, I let her go and started to take off my clothes.“I see Don Mateo is back” She grinned from ear to ear, her eyes looking sinister.“Take your clothes off” I growled, throwing my clothes into a corner, “oh now you want me?” she teased.“Take it off” I repeated, this time I walked towards her, then grabbed her, threw her against my desk and perked her ass up.I spanked her violently, just the way she liked it, then I dug my nails into her neck, I drew blood and she moaned in pleasure.“Yes this is the Mateo I've been craving” she moaned loudly.I ripped my belt off and soon my pants had dropped, I rammed my hard dick inside her, she was already wet from the violence that is her life.“Yes” she moaned as she sniffled in
ARIANA’S POV~“You shouldn't be here Enzo please leave” I pleaded, but he wouldn't leave, he walked up to me and soon his mouth was ravenously devouring mine.I pushed him off me and slapped him, “What the hell is wrong with you!” I exclaimed angrily.“Ariana, I can't stop thinking about you, never have, never will, and now you are carrying my baby, I just can't stay away from you cayenne..” he moaned kissing my hands.“Enzo you need to stop this, if Mateo finds out about this, he will kill us, he won't care if we once knew each other” my anxious voice gave me away as I shuddered from the thought of Mateo’s wrath. “we need to find a way to escape from here not this!” He groaned in frustration, “Mateo! Mateo! Mateo! Ariana, it's always about Mateo, what about us, what we had!” he exclaimed angrily.“It wasn't real, it was just a week! One week Enzo, it wasn't love!” I tried to make things clear to him but his incessant insisting that we were madly in love was starting to reach peak lu
MATEO’S POV~I should listen to the tape.But not until I prove to Ariana that I can be the man she wants me to be.“Is everything set?” I inquired looking around the beautifully decorated room, I smiled to myself.Proud of my accomplishment, today I will throw my wife a surprise baby shower.I sent out invitations to the people I could, but I couldn't get a hold of her stepmother and sister.The best I could do was Micola, and a few of her friends, Estella, and some maids.It's the thought that counts right?“Yes sir, all we have to do now is wait to surprise her” the maids giggled with glee.I spent no expense on the lavishness of this party.“She just pulled into the driveway sir” one of the guards reported, “good, places everyone!” I yelled and everyone hid.Micola was physically annoyed and she wouldn't hide, something was going on with her and Julius and she wouldn't tell me.I didnt bother to ask, soon the doors opened, and Ariana and Enzo stepped in, they were engaged in a hea
ENZO’S POV~Her lips parted to welcome me into her warmness. It was just like magic how Fiona suddenly appeared when I thought precisely of her. That moment we had in the tunnels, the image of Ariana flashed in my mind, and I couldn't stop thinking about her.Not when I thought she was back in Malta waiting for me.I pulled up her shirt, “what the hell! We are right in the hallway!” she yelled before pushing me off her.Then she slapped me hard across the face and I clenched my jaws. “what the hell do you think you are doing? Where the hell is the tape you stole you asshole!” she exclaimed angrily.I didnt care about any of that, I just wanted to devour her.As she complained about my lack of human compassion I noticed a nurse come out of an empty room.I grabbed Fiona and pulled her towards it, “Hey! Let go!” I opened the door and a nurse was inside folding the sheets.Two other people were in the room, they were in tears and it irritated me.“Everyone get the fuck out!” I thundered
Ariana’s pov~“Ariana, what the hell is going on here? Two babies? When did this happen? Who the hell are Donors A and B?” she questioned nonstop, and my mind was reeling.My world, everything I've come to know about myself is over.It's been Cayenne pregnant All this while, a sister I thought I made up in my head truly exists….I'd been admitted for observation, the doctor wouldn't let me leave and I begged her not to call Mateo.She was honoured to thank Fully,“It's a whole lot, Fiona, I met a guy before I came back to Italy,” I started.“The waiter?”“Yeah, he is the father of the baby,” I confessed.“You fucked him?” she exclaimed in shock.“I didn't, Cayenne did? How do I explain this to Mateo Fiona?” I shrieked, my hands sweating with anxiety.“Shit!” she cursed, “the last time he thought I had an affair he killed him, without a moment’s thought. I'm living with a total maniac” I continued, my voice shaky.“Mateo, he is not a kind man Fiona, he is crazy and obsessed with me, h
