Tangled Secrets – Taming Mr. Vittori Chapter 29
MAXWELLSilence enveloped the car, the both of us stuck in our own thoughts.I’d woken up this morning with the feeling that the meeting would change things, but I never thought things would change as much as they did.Everything that I’d known was a lie. Every single fucking thing. It felt like my head was bound to implode with the truths that blew my world open wide. The grenade had been thrown, and the fallout was immense.Thorn and I were both berating ourselves for falling for her tricks. We should’ve known that something was wrong. There were signs that we chose to ignore. No truly fated mates had the connection, or lack thereof, that we did. Goddess. How could we have been so stupid?Nineteen years. NINETEEN YEARS of lies and deception…I was a failure as an Alpha, a man, a father, and a person. While Candice brought Violet into this world alone, I was playing house with the same bitch who would turn her over to the hunters. Two years. Candice had been with them for two damn yea

ELII’d been in shock when Dad told me about Violet’s existence. I always wanted siblings but knew that it wasn’t in the cards because my parents were mates only by name. They attempted to keep their bullshit from being noticed, but it was sort of an impossible task.To be honest, I was thrilled when I heard that I had a sister. It didn’t matter if she was a stranger because she was one of us.Knowing that she’d be coming for dinner had made me very nervous because I wanted it to be a positive experience for her. I also didn’t know if she would resent me because I grew up with Dad when she didn’t. Thankfully, we got along really well.It destroyed me to know that Mom had a hand in the suffering that Violet’s family went through. The depths of her betrayal went beyond that though. She spent nineteen years faking a mate-bond with Dad just to use her position to gain access to this pack. She destroyed his relationship with Candice, leaving the woman to raise my sister on her own. Then she

ENZOI chuckled deeply at the challenge and stood up, holding my hand out to her.Warmth passed over my hand again when hers slid against mine. We both looked down at our hands. This wasn’t the first time that it’d happened before. I pushed those thoughts aside so that I could focus on the important one in front of me.“I want you to strip for me. Show me that gorgeous body of yours,” I purred.She blushed profusely but grabbed the hem of her top, pulling it up and over her head. My eyes drank in each uncovered inch of her body. Her lace bra was next. It pushed them up, giving just enough tease with cleavage that I could definitely fuck. I hissed under my breath when her tits were on full display. Then came her shorts and matching panties.“Una squisita opera d'arte. La perfezione personificata. [An exquisite work of art. Perfection personified.]”She gasped a little when she heard that, as if she couldn’t believe that I saw her that way. Oh, I did and so much more. If only she could s

ENZOAlpha Maxwell and his son were due to get here shortly. We were all curious to know how everything went down with psycho bitch.I had to hand it to them both that they took the betrayals a lot better than I would’ve if I was in their position. There hadn’t been any way for us to anticipate their reactions, but both of theirs pleased me because it showed that they had my girl’s back.Yes, she was my girl. I hadn’t officially asked her or anything, but I’d be doing that shortly. Especially after last night, there was no way that I’d be letting her get away from me unless she truly didn’t want to be with me. Never had I felt this way before. That, in and of itself, was unnerving but a tell-tale sign that I truly cared about her. Titan was in complete agreement with me.Violet was someone special that I hadn’t anticipated to enter my life, but I was thankful for it. Everyone knew me as the strict, cold, and meticulous CEO. The one who didn’t hold back from doing what I wanted and taki

VIOLETHis lips lit a fire inside of me. That fire helped to burn away the uncertainties that I felt when I saw those photos.My morning had been going amazingly well until the bitch caught me in the hallway.I loved feeling useful, and I did after helping Mrs. Danvers in the kitchen. It all reminded me what it was like when Mom was still with us. We’d work together on meal planning and always tried new recipes. It helped me feel closer to her even if it was through doing it with Mrs. Danvers.Once the kiss broke, he rested his face against my neck. He was inhaling deeply as if trying to calm himself. I could feel his body shaking as if he was struggling, so I did what I could to help him. My fingers ran through his hair while I hummed to him.I felt his lips press a kiss against my neck before he raised his head up and kissed my forehead too.“First of all, I’m sorry she pulled that shit. She knows full well that the only thing between Ana and I was the very rare hookup. I never would

ENZOThe call with Kaia went a lot easier than any of us had anticipated for it to. That simply served to relax us some.I was insanely curious about the rest of the Appersons because they were clearly threats, but I wondered how big those threats actually were. I didn’t care how powerful they might be, but I’d be damned if I allowed anyone else to harm her. She’d been through enough pain already in life.It might not be safest to keep her here at the pack simply because people would be able to tell that she was Fae. While we’d like to believe that all of our pack members could be trusted, the truth of the matter was that there were people like Ana and Stacia who wouldn’t think twice about striking Violet even if it meant go through her aunt to do it.My house was one of the safest places around because I spared no expense when it came to designing it. Not to mention that it was on a large plot of land because I liked my privacy. There were no nosy neighbors or anything.I wouldn’t lie

VIOLETRage gripped me, pouring through my body like lava until I felt like it would explode out of me.She would live to regret ever uttering those words. Oh, she would regret everything by the time that I was done with her.I’d never considered myself to be a violent person. So, those thoughts should’ve startled me, but they didn’t because there was an undeniable truth that was woven into me – nobody messed with my family. It was something that I’d always abided by whether it was about Mom or Daph. I didn’t know these two well at all, but they were my family.“I can’t fucking find it!” Luna Bitch snapped. “Yes, it’s fucking necessary. I need that amulet. The bitch gave it to him, and he never realized its importance.”She pinched the bridge of her nose and sat down on the bed, crossing her legs. Her entire demeanor screamed that she was annoyed. That brought a smirk to my face.“It’s made from black obsidian, which is what’s protecting him from being controlled. Normally, it would ha
Tangled Secrets – Taming Mr. Vittori Chapter 36
ENZOI couldn’t get the image of what she looked like earlier out of my head. It was like the amulet was a boosting power source that enhanced her Fae side.The shimmer made her skin look like it was brushed with diamond dust. Her features had sharpened some, and she looked more sensual overall. It was as if she was painted by a world-renowned artist.Despite the fuckery that we were currently dealing with, I was glad that Violet, Alpha Maxwell, and Eli found each other. It was new and awkward for certain, but it was slowly progressing. Anyone could see how much her presence already meant to those two, but you could also see how much she was beginning to appreciate them. Violet was a guarded individual for a reason.Even if the words hadn’t been specifically spoken until this meeting, Violet considered them to be family. The roar alone showed how dangerous of a game that the bitch was playing. Titan damn near swooned over that roar because of the power behind it. It was like a punch to

VIOLET “Focus, Violet! You can hold it longer,” Aunt Kaia shouted from across the yard.I growled loudly, my frustration spilling over. We had been at this for hours already today after dealing with this particular training method yesterday too. I was at my breaking point.She was a damn good instructor and had taught me many things about Fae and what we could do. Our magic could be used for so much good but also equal parts evil. It was all about the person’s intentions. Magic was neither good nor bad. It was the wielder that decided its purpose and direction.They explained to me how ancestral magic, like ours, worked. Not every Fae lineage had access to ancestral magic, but the Appersons did. That was precisely why they wouldn’t stop looking for all of us who didn’t fall in line with them. There were ways to siphon someone’s magic. It was very dangerous and very dark but not something that they had not done before. Fuck them. They had another thing coming if they thought that we w

ENZOIt had only been hours that she had been here, but the environment felt completely different. This place had always just been a place where I lived and where I slept – a pitstop if you wanted to consider it as such. Now, however, I could envision filling this place with proof of our love, leaving behind a lifetime of memories.I leaned against the wall, arms crossed over my chest. I smiled as I watched Violet clean up the kitchen. She was humming and dancing around as she worked. I loved getting to know her and learning all about her unique quirks. She didn’t have to do the kitchen, especially since she cooked, but she insisted on doing it.Who was I to ignore things that made her happy? This was something mundane, as she put it, which gave her a reprieve from all of the craziness lately.An important side note was that she was an amazing cook. I’d never tasted food as good as hers, and that was saying something because I’ve eaten plenty of food in my lifetime. I would say that it

LILACMy heart started pounding against my ribcage the moment that Violet mentioned my daughter. I wouldn't be surprised if it broke straight through the bone. Mom and I had done everything in our power to ensure that the three of us would never be found, but it seemed like it was futile in the end. Every sacrifice that we had made meant nothing in the end. The Appersons were downright fucked up. They skirted the line of Light Fae and Dark Fae. See, our kind originated as one with pure magic and pure purpose. Some Fae became greedy, wanting more and more power. They sought outside means to get it, which turned out to be dark magic. The magic fused with the light inside of them and corrupted their entire being. It even changed their appearance, turning their eyes dark, bodies dull gray in color, and black veins formed on their skin. The Appersons had powerful magic that kept the physical manifestation from taking hold. It allowed them to have their cake and to eat it too. Each new g

ENZOMy family had always wondered why I’d put so much time and thought into the design of my house, especially considering the fact that I lived alone. Perhaps there was a part of me that hoped I wouldn’t be alone in the end and would be able to build a life and family here even if I hadn’t put too much thought into a future mate.Three stories, ten bedrooms, eight bathrooms, library, gym, theater room, home office, heated outdoor pool, sauna, and jacuzzi. There was also a separate four-bedroom guesthouse that was also fully-furnished.I heard Violet’s soft gasp when the gates opened up, allowing me to drive in. There was a deep sense of awe running through her as her eyes swiveled around from side to side, taking it all in.There were ten acres of land associated with this property. The woods provided plenty of area for Titan to run and hunt whenever he was in a mood to do so. It also had plenty of coverage to hide the security devices and boobytraps from prying eyes. Security was on

LILACI had no idea why fate paired us together, but I had to believe that there was a reason for it.A part of me worried that Niccolò might not feel that I was worth fighting for. What if he couldn’t accept my crazy life? What if he’d rather just go and find a she-wolf, one that could give his wolf a wolf mate?My eyes burned when I thought about that happening. I clenched my hands into fists and focused on the blurring scenery, hoping that everything would work out in the end.Sparks broke me out of those thoughts. I looked down and saw that his hand was clasped with mine.Niccolò leaned over and placed a kiss on my head. I didn’t know why he did this, but it was exactly what I needed. I scooted closer and rested my head on his shoulder. His emotions felt much lighter right now, which helped to soothe my frayed nerves.After another hour of driving, we pulled up to a large gate. Enzo placed his hand on a scanner and spoke a command. The gate swung open, and he drove inside.The land

ALPHA BRADLEYI walked over to the bar cart near the window and poured myself a drink. It was premium A-grade stock that was more potent than typical alcohol. The burn slid down my throat, coming to rest in my chest. Looking out the window, I wanted to scoff at the scene. People walking around the grounds without a care in the world, believing that they were safe and completely unaware of the danger that was hiding right in plain sight. My eyes scanned the Sentinels that were on duty, tasked with keeping everyone here on the Council grounds safe. The irony brought a smirk to my face.I wondered what the rest of the Council would think if they knew the truth of what had been occurring right underneath their noses for the past five years. I had to give it enough time to get my bearings once I was inducted into one of the highest positions in the werewolf world. A year after I came here, the long-awaited plan was put into motion.One might think that doing anything nefarious with six fel

ENZOMy mate had been pissed off ever since she got done speaking with Daphne but had yet to share anything. The emotions within her were concerning, but I knew that she needed to work through it all before she could open up. So, I gave her the peace and quiet that she needed. Me, Alpha Maxwell, Eli, my brother, Kaia, and Lilac were all gathered around, watching Violet pace. We had bets going for how long it’d last. I was currently winning with twenty-five minutes. She let out a loud growl and punched the wall after another seven minutes.Violet turned around, as if just realizing that we were all still here. I went over and took a look at her hand. It was a hard punch, but Niccolò had taught her how to do it without fucking up her hand. The knuckle on her middle finger had split open, so I kissed it. Then I tipped her chin up and kissed her. It was soft and quick, but it helped to relax some just like I’d hoped that it would.‘We’re all here for you,’ I promised her.She smiled and n

DAPHNEIt would seem that Mr. Asshat didn’t like my answer. That was made abundantly clear when he walked around the table and slapped my face hard enough that I tasted blood.Thankfully, I was used to being struck. There were times when Ron was home, but Vi wasn’t. I never told her that he would hit me because she would drown in guilt and would more than likely do something that would end up getting her hurt. I’d do everything in my power to protect her, just like she did for me.No matter what happened here, I would never betray her even if that resulted in my death.I was glad that they lost her when Ron sold her to them that night. They made sure I knew that they had me in custody because Vi escaped. If they were hoping that I’d resent her for it then they were sadly mistaken. It filled me with happiness to know that she evaded them and was safe where she was at now. Mom kept me apprised of what was going on in Vi’s life, which was helping to keep us both sane and in fighting spir

CANDICEI looked up at the ceiling of my cell, thinking about how good Max looked even after all of these years. He’d always been the most handsome guy I’d ever seen, but the years gave him a type of sexy maturity. It suited him well.Memories of us were what kept me as sane as I’d been for the past two years. Although, I wasn’t certain how sane that was any longer. Days, weeks, and months bled together until it was just a large shadow over time.It was easier to deal with before they showed me their trump card.(Flashback)Pain rushed through me when an asshole slammed a knife into my arm before dragging it downwards, slicing through the skin like softened butter. It hurt like hell but wasn’t the worst thing that they’d done to me over the years.Hunters were disgusting excuses for humans. They did whatever they wanted to supernaturals while using the guise of science. They made excuses for their deplorable actions by claiming that we weren’t human and were nothing but monsters. There
