Tesoro Chapter 44.
Matteo POV.Cass is such a bad ass. Not once did she flinch as she watched Valentina and Rocco get their comeuppance, not once did she tell her team or the king’s or the yakuza to stop. She sat poised, calm and collected and directed what was to happen like a director on a film set.The only time she got her hands dirty was when she decided it was time to end them. Me personally I would have toyed with them for days, giving them every single ounce of pain she felt. But Cass is different. She wanted to end it quickly, and she did.I know she will be concocting ways to get to Nikolai for his role in her suffering, but the question remains. Do I tell her the truth about her parents? Or do I let sleeping dogs lie, so to speak? If I don’t tell her and she finds out that I knew, then that will only incur her wrath, but if I do tell her, then she will no doubt hunt down Nikolai and it will be one huge fucking mess.“Tesoro, where are you going?” I catch up with her as do the rest of the team

Cassandria POV.I’m gently jolted awake. I rub the back of my neck from sleeping on Matteo’s shoulder. I’m dazed as Matteo lifts me. I wriggle and rub my face against his neck, like a child who is still half asleep. Which is what I feel like at the moment.Everything that has had happened has taken its toll on me. All I want to do right now is have a bath and go to sleep. Whatever needs sorting can be dealt with tomorrow. Right now, I need time.“Matteo, I’m so tired.” I mumble and I hear a chuckle. I lift my head and squint to see who it is that is chuckling at me. I blink a few times and see Hulk looking at me, and I smile at him.“Hulk, don’t laugh at me.” I say, and he smirks at me and winks. Asshole.“Come on, tesoro, you are exhausted. Rest up and sleep.” Matteo says, and I shake my head.“No, I need a bath and then sleep. Oh and food, I’m so very fucking tired.” I mumble, and he tightens his hold on me.“Cass, what’s wrong? Are you ok?” I look up and see Luna and she is fussing

Cassandria POV.I sit there on the bathroom floor, huddled against the claw-footed bathtub. I’m shaking. Is it from the cold, the rage, the realisation that I was the reason they died?“Tesoro, look at me. This is not your fault.” Matteo has my face in his hands and the tears are just pouring down my cheeks, dripping off my chin. I’m numb. They did this to get to me. How could people be so fucking cruel? Well, I know how.“They wanted me. My parents died because of one mans greed. So it is my fault.” I move my face from his hold and he sighs when I look back at him and it clicks. I shove him away from me. He hits the floor and I launch myself at him. I straddle him, not caring that the towel has slipped, my hand around his throat.“You knew.” I say through gritted teeth, and he looks at me. He opens his mouth to speak, but I squeeze, restricting his air flow. When I’m pulled off of him. I snap.I thrash and scream, throwing elbows at who has me, kicking my legs out wildly as I remembe

Cassandria POV.I limp through the mansion. I need my phone, my laptop, and my team on their A game. I fall onto the sofa with a sigh. I lean my head back and close my eyes. So much for my relaxing evening. I scoff before I chuckle. It will never end unless I get to Nikolai first. The only way I can do that is by going after this monster’s family. I will use them to lure him out of hiding. I won’t hurt them. I don’t want them; I want him.I want him to know how it feels to have your family’s life in someone else’s hands. The fear of losing them. He will come for them and when he does, I will take him. I won’t kill him, no I will leave his fate to the others. He is a stain on this world, the amount of innocent men and women he has taken and destroyed countless families all for greed.I know it will never end, not until I have him. He thinks I am a prize, no it’s him. He is the one every mafia family is after. And it will be me who brings them all justice. If these were medieval times,

Andros POV.After what Cass has just told me, I know I reacted poorly. I know I shouldn’t have blamed her. I know it is not her fault. But this is still raw. Cass and I have lost so much, but she has lost more than I have. I’m such a dumb shit. I blamed my baby sister for something that isn’t her fault, all because some sick asshole wanted her.I storm through the mansion and outside towards the garage. I need to get out of here; I need to drive and clear my head.“Andros, wait. Where are you going?” I stop and look at my woman, Lola. She is everything to me. I love her so much and I know she can see I’m broken. She is the only one I have allowed to see that part of me. Well, that and Cass.“I need to clear my head, baby. All of this with everything that is going on is too much. I need to get away from here for a few hours.” I say to her as I unlock the car and climb in when I turn the and see Lola in the passenger seat next to me.“I’m not letting you deal with whatever this is on yo

Cassandria POV.I’m numb. That is the only word I can use to describe all of this. Numb that I know who is responsible for the deaths of my parents, but also numb because my own brother blames me for it.“I know what you’re thinking tesoro, I can hear the wheels in your head turning. This is not your fault.” Matteo says with his frozen peas still on his face.“It is kind of hard not to think it is my fault. He will pay for this, though. I need …” I look around and see my team sitting off to the side chatting amongst themselves.“Tati, I need you.” I say, and she looks up at me and nods her head. She kisses Daragh and walks to me, sitting down before she pulls me into a hug. I gulp down the sob that threatens to escape as I squeeze her tight. She whispers in my ear.“Sakhi mne, chto delat. Sakhi mne, chto tebe nuzhno, I eto budet sdelano.” (Tell me what to do. Tell me what you need and it will be done.) She says and I start to shake fighting the sobs and I know I’m going to break down.

Matteo POV.Watching my tesoro take charge is such a damn turn on, but I know she is not ready for that. I am happy to wait. It just means that Mrs Palmer and her five daughters and I have become more reacquainted as of late. But still I know it will be worth it.I’m not a cheating bastard and I will never be, sure at one point my bedroom door was like a revolving one but I was single and not to blow my own horn but women only saw the money so they would do anything to warm my bed even for a night. But Cass is different. That woman will be my wife, my one and only, and that is how it is staying.Watching her in work mode is something I never thought I would see. Being in this briefing watching from the outside looking in, she commands her team, and I never noticed it before. Her team fully respect her and listen intently to what she is saying. She is standing by the huge white board as she places information on the board, sticking pictures of both the targets and writing under each on

Cassandria POV.We work until the early hours of the morning with nothing but pizza and beer. I’m certainly running on fumes but that’s ok. There is no better fuel than revenge. I will get him for what he did and what he was planning on doing.I rub my eyes and roll my neck, feeling and hearing the satisfying click before rolling my shoulders and stretching my back out.I rub the back of my neck as I tilt my head up with my eyes closed. I open my eyes and see Matteo standing in front of me. I smile faintly up at him and he is looking at me with love in his beautiful hazel eyes.“You need to sleep, tesoro. You are going to work yourself into the ground.” He reaches for me and takes the final step towards me as I lean into his strong embrace.“I know, but I’m ok. I will rest when I’m dead.” I say with a chuckle, and he stiffens slightly.“Don’t joke, we nearly lost you once and I don’t want that to happen again. Please, tesoro. Come to bed and rest, even if it is only for a little while

Cassandria POV.I drive the SUV at speed the closer I get to the gates.“Tesoro, slow down,” Matteo says as he braces, but I ignore him as I collide with the gate. The gate opens. I sneer as I drive to the front door and screech to a halt. I rip the door open and step out. I look around. Yeah, if this doesn’t scream ambush, I don’t know what does.“CLAUDIA, HERE I AM! COME OUT AND FACE ME LIKE THE COWARD YOU ARE!” I shout as I look at the camera. I point my finger at it, knowing she is watching me.The rest of the convoy arrives, and each person steps out and walks closer to me.

They will be safe there. I called Zana and Heather and asked them to head over and set up some rooms for everyone.The girls have not left my side and I smile, not wanting them to. 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

Then she collapsed and had a seizure. Not long after that, her assistants arrived to find her and Andros was instructed to let Cass or Anastasia or whatever you want to call her rest.The doctor was called, and my heart was in my mouth the entire time. Hearing her screams, seeing her foam at the mouth, her eyes rolling into the back of her head. Then it just stopped. Her chest heaving and her eyes flickering.The doctor came and wanted her to be placed in the hospital, but we all agreed that she should rest at home. We did take her to the hospital, and she was still unconscious. She underwent MRI scans, X-rays, blood work. Everything came back within normal ranges. But she was stil

Anastasia POV.I slept like shit last night, plagued with dreams. Matteo DeAngelis was the dominant feature in them. I was happy then they took a dark turn. 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. My body jolts with each hit, each brutal, disgusting thing that happened. I screamed and begged it to stop.I was woken by a wet nose and tongue against my cheek. I never went back to sleep after that. So I did what I do best. Work.The front door opens and I don’t stop finalising designs for the store opening. I already have some of the completed pieces here to go into display cases for general sale. I will also be showcasing some of the custom designs.

Everyone loves Gabriella and Alexandra.Dimitri walks to me and hugs me and I hug him back just as Andros and Lola walk out of the house. 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

Anastasia POV.The dull throbbing in my head wakes me. God, what did I drink last night? Oh, that’s right, everything. 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. God damnit, one Anastasia burrito coming right up with a side of the mother of all hangovers. I fight to get out of this quilt and succeed. Walking to the bathroom, I make quick work of making myself feel and look more human.After a long scolding hot shower, I’m now wide awake and feeling slightly better. Grabbing a towel, I walk into the bedroom and head to my closet and grab shorts and a sports bra. I pull them on and start doing my stretches as I jog down the stairs and into the kitchen.Making a juice before heading to the gym. I turn the music on and up and grab my hand wraps and start wrappi

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
