Cassandria POV.

We are on the move again and heading to the secure location Daragh has Curtis in. I am never drinking that much again. I woke up in Daragh’s house; I don’t even remember leaving the pub. Ivan, Igor, and Tati are the same. All of us are bears with very sore heads.

“You look like shite.” Daragh says with a chuckle. I groan and give him the finger and he laughs.

“How are you fine? I feel like I have been run over by a fucking train, then tap danced on by leprechauns.” I say as I follow behind him into what looks like an abandoned factory in Downtown New York, on the waterfront.

“Did you forget little Cassie? I’m Irish. We can drink better than fish.” He says, keeping me close. I mumble under my breath that he is one lucky fucker, and he chuckles at my choice of words.

At some point during the night, we moved to shots and then to spirits. I’m having flashes of memory and I cringe. I was dancing on the bar and free pouring straight into my mouth. Never again.

    Cassandria POV.“Cass, wh … What are you doing here? How are you here? You should be …”“Dead, yeah I know. Surprise.” I say with a chuckle as I step further into his view. The steel glinting in the light. His eyes move from my face to the Katana. He visibly gulps and I smirk.“Did you not get the little video I sent you?” I ask him and his eyes widen now he remembers.“I take it by your reaction you did. So, as you can see, the little squad you sent to bring me in or to kill me are all dead. So tell me, Curtis, how are you?” I ask him and he looks at me like I’m crazy. My grip tightens on the sword.“Do you think I’m scared of you? Ha, don’t make me laugh. You will be back by my side soon enough and I will enjoy taking you before I kill you.” He laughs and I just raise an eyebrow at him. My team moves closer and so does Daragh. I hold my hand up, stopping them in their tracks.“Why would I want your pin dick anywhere near me? Then again, your dick is your favourite toy, after all.” I

    Matteo POV.It has been four fucking days since we left Sicily to not only find Cass, but to find fucking Curtis. We finally had a hit on another possible location. We have been chasing dead ends since we arrived in New York.We met up with Dimitri and Alina. They told us that Cass and her team have ceased all communication and they can’t find them. I lost it and lashed out, trashing the penthouse suite.How can you just lose six people? Granted, Daragh O’Rourke has his connections in this city, but so do I and so far nothing until an hour ago, and we have raced to this location at the docks. An abandoned factory. My gut is telling me they are long gone. But maybe they left a clue as to where they have headed next. I can only hope they turn up soon.Valentina and Rocco are back in LA and locked up in the compound. I had to intercept them before they got to Cass. I know Cass will be upset with what I did, but I did it to save her. Not that she needs it I’m all for girl-power, but she d

    Cassandria POV.Being back in LA doesn’t bring back any feelings. I’m unfeeling and it has been three days since I did what I did to Curtis. He is alive, but was beaten within an inch of his life. We are heading to drop Curtis off. It’s the least I can do.Matteo really needs to change the access codes to the main gates of the community. I punched in the code and we drove through. Driving past the house that was considered home for over a year. I didn’t stop until we were close to the gates of the compound. I spun the wheel and reversed the rest of the way. Once we were right by the gate.“Now.” I say and the back doors are opened as Igor grabs out a battered, bruised and bleeding Curtis and just drops him at the gates before he re-enters the van and we drive off.“Easy-peasy. Done. Now let’s get out of here.” I say as I keep driving forward and back out of the community.I pull up and we dump the van and walk towards the waiting armoured SUVs. I climb in the back and Igor climbs into

    Cassandria POV.I step into my kitchen with my head raised and head towards the kettle to make a coffee. I ignore the heated glare on my back.“Tesoro. We need to talk.” I look at the kitchen cabinet in front of me.“No, I don’t think we do, Matteo.” I say as I go back to making my coffee before I turn with the cup in my hand as I lean against the counter and just watch him. He looks pissed and relieved at the same time.It’s an old-fashioned stare down. Who will break eye contact first? Well, it sure as shit won’t be me. Whatever he has to say, I’m not interested.“Cass, little one. What the hell? Why would you go to this extreme?” Andros asks me. I sip my coffee, still not breaking eye contact with Matteo. Yes, I’m challenging him and I won’t fucking lose.“Because you and him are pussies and wouldn’t. So I did. Don’t try to act innocent, Andros.” I say, still not looking away. I don’t think I’ve even blinked. The tension is mounting in my kitchen. Matteo stands slowly as I raise a

    Matteo POV.I have let her down; I have let the families down. She is right; I don’t deserve the title of king. I failed to bring her the justice she deserved. No, she had to go out and get that justice for herself. She doesn’t need anyone to fight her battles. She will end up getting herself killed and there is nothing I can do about that.Unless?Unless I take her captive. But no, she would hate me more for that and could very well revert back to how she was when she was first bought to LA. I don’t want that, but at the same time she needs to be brought to heel.We drive in silence back to the compound. I’m lost in my thoughts about what to do with her. All I can do is sit back and watch as she takes her revenge. Then and only then will she be satisfied? Will she then be happy? Will she then move on? The answer to those little questions is, I don’t fucking know.All I do know is that there will be more bloodshed at her hand, and she will slip further into the darkness.We pull up ou

    Cassandria POV.The days have blurred together, as we have planned to get both Valentina and Rocco at the masquerade ball tonight.We have eyes on Curtis and we may have slipped him something in his IV. Something that will he will never recover from. He will die slowly, painfully. No trace will be found and there is no cure. I know this because I researched about this new drug that the Russians have been developing. So yeah, I entered the DeAngelis mansion with the help of Dr Cynthia Monroe and gave him the drug.I may or may not have given something to Valentina and Rocco. Something that will stop them escaping too fast, a weak sedative but given over time, increases its potency. They won’t get far.They always say poison is a woman’s weapon. But to me, any weapon should be a woman’s weapon.We go over the final plans for tonight before Alina gets a call, and she heads to the door. Yes, they are all staying here with me.

    Cassandria POV.I step out of the dressing room and into my bedroom. The gasps have me smiling softly at those in my bedroom. The glam squad are looking at me like I am their goddess.“Oh my god, you look … wow,” Anton says and his team parrot their approval. I raise my chin just a tad bit higher, felling like the queen I know I am.“Thank you all for the compliments. It has been a while since I dressed in anything other than ripped jeans.” I say with a chuckle.“Girl, you have got the looks, the body. If I looked like that even in my Drag, I would flaunt it every day.” Gary says and I smile at him. He told me he is a Drag Queen when he was doing my make-up. I panicked, but he has skills. He told me don’t worry, doll, I won’t make you look like me.“The offer still stands. If you ever leave my zia, then I would gladly take you all in. Oh, before I forget.” I say as I walk towards my phone and pull up my banking app. I had asked Alina for their banking details before in a text and she

    Matteo POV.I was in the middle of my speech when the PA system was overridden. I looked up and saw the four Irish King’s standing looking down at us all, like we were their subjects. I could hear the murmurs asking why they were here? And who are they? Then I look up and my breath catches in my throat as Cass comes into view.She looks like a goddess. Standing there is a nude dress adorned with crystals and pearls. She looks every bit the queen I know she is and will be.When she made her descent down the stairs to the music, I’m stuck in a trance.“Baby, what is she doing here?” Val hisses at my side but I ignore her, too mesmerised by the vision at the other end of the hall. The Don’s move like she has commanded them to.She walks slowly, seductively, her hips swaying and she mouths the lyrics, but not to me. Her icy gaze is firmly on Valentina and Rocco. My cock stirs as I watch her, my mouth is dry and I gulp down the closer she gets to me.Everything disappears around me, and it

I will protect them with my life.“Momma, what about Brutus?” Gabriella asks and I look at her and smile.“Brutus? My beautiful boy, he will be ok. He is very strong and stubborn. Does he behave?” I ask her and she nods her head and I smile. I have missed him and I will see him again.“Yes, he lets us ride him. He is very gentle.” Huh. Is she talking about the same horse? Brutus is stubborn as hell.“I’m glad he is piccolo tesoro. He was my baby before you both came along.” I say to her as I stroke her black hair. She leans against one of my shoulders and Alexandra is leaning against the other one.“Momma, how are you here? Papa sai

A maniacal laugh of a woman sounded around me. Then a sting. Me screaming, but it wasn’t me; it was someone who looked like me.“All Hail the Queen.” She said, but I can’t see her face.

Lola has hold of little Cassian on her hip and he too has the Romano traits. The icy blue eyes and black hair.“Matteo, you don’t look so good.” Dimitri says to me and I look at him and then at Alina, who is talking animatedly to the girls and, of course, little Natalya.“We need to have a meeting ASAP.” I tell him and he looks at Alina and she looks up and the smile vanishes from her face as she stands up and nods her head once before the girls run over to Andros and Lola.Andros and Lola love the girls. Andros scoops both of them up and hugs them tight.“Our little ones, I swear you are both going to be taller than me if you both keep growing like this. How was your fli

God, I drank like a fish and I don’t know why.I’m currently face down with the hoodie over my head face planting the pillow. The sun is beaming through the room, warming my ass, and I really need the bathroom.I roll out of bed, and land on the floor, wrapped in the quilt.

    Matteo POV.I’m lost in thought as I sit in the jet heading toward Sicily. The girls are all sleeping in the bedroom. All I can think about is Anastasia. She does have a striking resemblance to Cass. But nothing is making sense.The flight has been silent, each of us in a state of shock at seeing her and her not remembering anyone. So that just tells me she isn’t Cass. But my gut is telling me she is and I will get to the bottom of it.“Matteo, I have what you requested.” Tati says breaking me out of my thoughts. I look at her as she stands and hands me the iPad.“What did you find?” I ask her and she sighs.“I can’t explain it. You need to read it, Matteo, but I warn you it is bad.” She says and I look from her to the information. I nod my head and call Colin to me. He is my air steward. I only have men working on my jet as the female staff would try to get me into bed. I’m completely celibate. I will remain that way too, especially after what happened.“Yes, sir, what can I get for
