My head...

I woke up with a monster headache, I don't know what happened last night or why I was feeling this way. My eyelids had a ton of weight on them making it difficult for me to even open my eyes.

I yawned and stretched my body. My lips were chapped, and my mouth had dried up. I groaned with the blinding headache before retreating under the covers.

Why was the room so bright? Didn't I draw the curtains last night? I don't remember... I don't even remember how I got to my room and my bed.

"Natalya..." a deep voice resounded throughout my room.

Someone said my name with such venom that I flinched in my sleep. It wasn't Scott, I knew that much. I prayed that it wasn't Alessandro. Please, don't be Alessandro. I don't think I can talk to him with so much weight over my head.

Pushing aside everything I was feeling, I forced a droopy eyelid open.

I propped up on my elbows and leaned my head against the soft headboard. I opened both of my eyes with such difficulty that it was so painful

    I shook my head at his words immediately. Tears welled up in my eyes, and my stomach churned. I wanted to throw up. He tugged my head backward outstretching my neck. "No, Alessandro, please, I won't drink, I promise, please"A dark ghost of a smile tugged at the corner of his lips. I couldn't believe how all this was amusing to him. "But as it was your first time, I'll let it slide, Natalya"A breath of relief escaped from my lips. "Thank you..."His eyes raked all over my face. "Next time, I won't be so tolerant with you. Do you understand?"I inhaled sharply and nodded."Words, Natalya!""Yes... I understand"Slowly, his grip on my hair loosened and then he let me go. He stepped back and put both of his hands in his pockets again. He walked backward until his back was against the wall."Freshen up"He just stood there and watched me as I got up from my bed, tugging my t-shirt down. His eyes slowly raked all over my body, I was completely aware of his scrutinizing gaze that burned in

  • The Alpha’s Rogue Mate   I'm sorry

    I didn't step out of my room yesterday, I stayed inside even though I was extremely hungry but still I didn't step outside of this bedroom door. There were no locks or bolts over it but the fear that has been engraved in my mind was too raw. I couldn't shake it off, even if I tried.It was still early in the morning, and Alexander or Scott hadn't come to my room. I brushed my teeth, showered, and dressed up in clean clothes. My stomach growled with hunger but I wrapped my arms around it, suppressing the sounds.The door opened slightly and I got off my bed in a flash, my eyes tearing up again. I needed a list of rules, I needed to know what I can or can not do. Alessandro can't just expect me to know the rules of his house. He needs to tell me first, he needs to explain them to me.If he had told me not to get out of my room, I would have never done it. I wasn't a brat, I would have listened to him.I dropped my gaze to my feet, I didn't care if it angers him that I didn't look him in

    I unwrapped it and saw a cell phone printed over the box. Alessandro brought me a phone. I grinned as I excitedly opened the box and took out the cell phone."It's a phone!" I squealed.I never had a phone, my parents had them but I wasn't allowed, dad sometimes let me play games on it but that was just it.Alessandro gave me a slight smile like he found my reaction funny or stupid but I was too happy to care. He stood up and I took a step back."Come on, I'm taking you to college."Suddenly words had abandoned me, I watched him stunned. I had a cellphone and now he was taking me to college.Where has this man been my entire life?I couldn't help the scream that left my lips with excitement, I threw myself in Alessandro’s arms. I wrapped both of my arms around his neck as if my life depended on it.At first, he didn't hug me back, disappointment filled my chest, as I thought that I crossed a line. Biting my lower lip, I began to pull away but then I felt his large, warm hand on my low

    I approached the woman with sweaty hands and trembling legs, there were just so many people behind her. I have never been a part of a crowd. I have never even been in a place with so many people before. My heart pounded against my ribs as if trying to fulfill a thousand beats. I deeply exhaled, releasing some of the tension that had built up in my muscles."Welcome to Columbia University, Ms. Martinez. My name is Tara Wells and I'll be your guide through everything..."I smiled politely at her. "Thank you...""Although your admission was kind of last-minute, you arrived just in time for the orientation week.""Oh..." was all I could say as I didn't even know what orientation week was.I know Alessandro must have something to do with my last-minute admission, and now I really don't know how I will ever repay everything he has done for me."Let's start with the campus tour"With a smile on my face and anxiety shooting through my veins I followed Tara as she showed me around the campus.

    I placed both of my arms over the headrest of the couch and placed my chin on them as I watched Alessandro, my back was now facing the TV.I really liked staring at him... does that make me creepy?As if he felt my eyes on him, his gaze flicked directly toward me, making my breath hitch. We just stared at each other in silence. His expressions were nothing but indifferent, and cold, and yet I felt like my whole body was suddenly on fire.He slightly rolled his eyes, just slightly, and god! If it wasn't the hottest eye roll I have ever seen in my life. I smiled in return, I know it was my staring that vexed him.He narrowed his eyes back at me. "How was college?" he asked, his voice rough and demanding.I gave him a wide smile. "Perfect..."Like you-I wanted to add but I didn't.I think I have a huge crush on Alessandro Costello, maybe, it's because he is the first man I have ever known, and maybe I'll grow out of it when I'll meet new people at college. Because being cramped up in a h

    "We need her back!" Soldo's son slammed his hand over my desk.I watched silently as the father and son squabbled with one another. Soldo chided his son to give me the respect a don is due but it was too late. The stupid boy had made his bed, his father knew he won't get out of here alive."I have no idea where your daughter is, Soldo."Before Soldo could speak, his son decided to open his mouth again, I was reconsidering my decision of not torturing him before death."Bullshit! One of your men took my sister, Costello!""I can assure you, Soldo, that not me or any of my men have ever forced a woman against her will"Soldo gave me a nervous chuckle. "I know that donAlessandro orgive my son, he doesn't know when to open his mouth""Have you considered the possibility that your daughter might have just run away from home?"Young girls often ran away from the Cosa Nostra, we were protective of our women. They didn't have much freedom or choice for that matter, so they preferred to run aw

    IT'S BEEN A WEEK since I had that little episode. I don't really remember anything, only Alessandro telling me to breathe and then put me to bed.I stayed in my room most of the time and didn't see Alessandro much. He was always working, so, we never really saw each other. I hadn't even seen Sabrina in a long time.I attended the whole orientation week, for a beginner at life like myself, it was insanely informative.Today was the first class of my freshmen year. I have chosen psychology as my major and I couldn't contain my excitement about it.I wore a cute outfit, straightened my hair, and applied light makeup. All of the stuff has been bought for me by Alessandro. We haven't even seen each other for the past week but his employees regularly update my closet, makeup, and every single female necessity.After I had told Alessandro that I don't want Scott to be my driver for college, he assigned one of his other men to take me to college, his name was Marco. This one was nice, he does

    "Marco told me about the guys you have been warming up with, Sweet cheeks" he chuckled in my ear, sending a shot of anxiety through my veins. "Trust me, when he will know, they won't see the daylight ever again"Swallowing the lump that formed in my throat I asked. "Who?""Alessandro..." he whispered.He let me go with a jerk, I staggered to my side and rubbed the area of my arm from where he had gripped it. I glared at him and turned to run up the stairs.I got to my room, slammed the door shut, and locked it. I picked up the laptop from the study table and searched for the word that was bothering me the most."Mafia"Hesitantly, I clicked on the first search result that pulled up and started to read everything about it.Mafia is an informal term that is used to describe a criminal organization that bears a strong similarity to the Sicilian Mafia...Mafias often engage in secondary activities such as gambling, loan sharking, drug trafficking, prostitution, and fraud...Mafia-terroris

  • The Alpha’s Rogue Mate   Time for business

    I showered up, getting rid of the soreness of my muscles. I had never worked out in my life before and exerting my body so much in a single day has taken its toll. I had cramps everywhere.I heard some voices coming from downstairs. I couldn't recognize them. I mulled over the fact that I should go and check it out because it could be Nikolai's business partner. His business partners were not the kind of people you want to make a conversation with.But then I heard a shrill female voice.I went out of the door and stood at the top of the stairwell. Still, all I heard were the voices. I went downstairs and saw a tall, lean middle-aged man with a young blonde woman standing beside him. I could only see their side profiles. The woman turned and I sucked in a sharp breath.It was Grace Russell, Nikolai's wife-to-be. I know because I had attended their engagement. Her face was engraved at the back of my mind, the sight when Nikolai had slipped the ring on her finger replayed in my head on

    "Have you ever worked out before?" he asked.I looked around with wide eyes. "Does running around in the gardens count?""No,""Then no, I have not""Come on, let's do a little warm-up first then I'll teach you how to box."My mouth hung open. "Box? As in boxing?"He heaved a sigh. "I want you to learn how to defend yourself, Natalya."I thought for a while before I nodded. Turns out, I don't even know what warm-up is, he had to tell me everything. The thing that annoyed me the most was his tone, he was speaking to me like I was a child and repeating his words so, that I'd understand clearly.Another thing that annoyed me was his toned muscles, and his stupid sculpted chest.When it was time to step into the boxing ring, Alessandro handed me a pair of boxing gloves. I was about to put them on but he came to me and put them on me himself as if I don't know how to put the stupid gloves on.I rolled my eyes and out of nowhere Alessandro gently smacked the back of my head. "Roll your eyes

  • The Alpha’s Rogue Mate   Don't dare touch me

    Someone pounded on my bedroom door waking me up from my deep slumber. I groaned and stuffed my face back into the pillow to block out the sound coming from the door. The knocking intensified, whoever it was, didn't really have much patience.I sat up and glanced at the wall clock. It was only six o'clock in the morning. I rubbed my eyes to rid of the grogginess, tossed the duvet aside, got to my feet, and headed for the door. I opened it and was met with an unknown face. She was wearing the uniform the household help used to wear."What?" I asked."Don Alessandro had requested you to freshen up and wear this before you come downstairs."Frowning, I took the clothes from her and noticed that they were gym clothes. I heaved a sigh, I liked it better when I could say no to him but I dug my own grave when I promised him that I'd listen to him and follow his rules but that's all there was to it.I'm not the same girl who had a massive crush on him.I closed the bedroom door and glanced at

    "I'll make sure to do everything he did to you... but his torture will be a hundred times worse," he whispered softly.His one hand was in my hair while the other was on my cheek caressing it with his knuckles. I leaned into his touch, feeling the security and comfort I used to feel when I first met him."They all took turns in beating me up, they laughed whenever I screamed in pain," I said as tears rolled down my cheeks and dripped down to the ground.His hand left my hair as he cupped my face with both of his hands. He tugged me closer. "I will make their death an object of ridicule."I looked into his eyes. "Promise?"He let out a deep breath with a hint of a smile."Promise," he declared. "Do you want to see it happen?"I considered it and then shook my head. I don't think I have the stomach for that much violence. "No...""Do you want to go home now?"I looked up at him. It's hard to forget what Alessandro did to me too and the fact that he was engaged was the hardest pill I eve

  • The Alpha’s Rogue Mate   Not interested in anything

    I had my headphones on as I continuously flipped the pages of the book that was before me. I hadn't read a word, the music blasted in my ears blocking out all the other sounds.I slammed the book shut and got off my bed. Alessandro had called Sabrina earlier, I knew that he did because Sabrina and I hadn't talked after his whole engagement fiasco.I pretended to be asleep while Sabrina waited for me.I didn't wake up until she finally gave up and left the house.I got to my feet, straightened out my dress, and headed downstairs. His house was crawling with his soldiers, they all tried to avoid making eye contact with me.They were moving some stuff into the house, some furniture, suitcases, and whatnot. Was Alessandro redecorating?I hopped onto the couch and put on the TV at full volume. Someone grabbed the remote out of my hand and turned the volume down.I huffed and looked up to see Alessandro looking down at me. He placed both of his hands on the headrest of the couch and dipped

    She turned her back towards us and went into the kitchen. Probably to cook breakfast for herself, she didn't know how to cook shit."I'll be right back," I said to Scott, who nodded still clenching his hands like he wanted to punch something or someone. It won't be Natalya, I will fucking break his hand off before he does that.I followed her into the kitchen and saw her using her cell phone while she placed some of the ingredients on the counter. It looked like she wanted to make pancakes. She played a video and placed it before her while she followed whatever the lady in the video was narrating."Do you remember the rules?"She stopped whatever she was doing and glanced at me, her facial expression was bored, uninterested."I remember" she answered and before I could say anything she added. "But I could care less for them"Rage coursed through my veins. She was testing me, trying hard for me to slip up so she could hold it against me."Natalya, don't disrespect my men. I won't toler

  • The Alpha’s Rogue Mate   Now his weakness

    I'm weak.Too fucking weak.I let her get too close to me.Until recently, I only ever really loved one woman in my life. My mother, I respected her, loved her.Anastasia Costello.I thought she was the only one who really knew me, the only one that can tear down my walls. I thought my ability to love ended with her, and I was fine with that.I've watched her writhing in pain, struggling to breathe, tears leaking out of her eyes but she couldn't move. My mother fought long and hard with the disease before she lost that battle. I thought that was it. My only weakness, the only woman I ever loved is dead and now I'm fucking invincible.But then she happened.The morning Nikolai Martinez died, I didn't fucking know what I was getting myself into when I brought his daughter into my home. I hadn't given it a second thought, I didn't even know what I was going to do with her.The men in my circle had many ideas about what I should do with her, but I didn't fucking agree with them. I thought

    "I'm sorry, Angel, I'm sorry I let them take you, I'm sorry I wasn't there," his voice was so low that I barely heard it even though his mouth was right next to my ear."No! You are not sorry!" I choked out through my sobs. "I know I don't matter to you, I know I don't mean anything to anyone, least of all you!""Shh... I'll make it alright, I promise,"I tried to shake my head. "You can't! You can't""I will, I need you to trust me, okay?" he placed soft kisses on my temple."I hate you!""I know, I'll fix it""Nothing can fix this, nothing can fix me!""I will, Angel, I promise you.""I hate you so much.""I know.""I mean nothing to you.""That's a lie.""I don't want this, Alessandro.""I know.""You scare me too.""I know, Angel, I will make it alright""I don't want this, Alessandro. I don't want to be here.""I'm not letting you leave ever again."I cried harder. "Why?""I just don't want to," he answered softly."I don't want to get abducted again.""I won't let that happen."

  • The Alpha’s Rogue Mate   Let me go

    Another day...Another morning...Still, it did nothing to calm the turmoil I felt inside of me. Everything around me was just the same but I didn't feel the way I used to. I feel hateful all the time, anger is the only emotion coursing through my veins right now.Ten days, I spent ten days in that cell but it felt like a year. It felt as if that cell didn't belong in this world, time passed by slowly there.I looked out of the window and felt nothing... this view always brought me comfort but now it did nothing to me. Nothing to calm the storm brewing inside of me.I remember looking out of this window and dreaming of a life outside these four walls. I thought it'd be a fairy tale. I thought my parents were wrong and the world out there was anything but evil."The world is a dangerous place and you are easy prey, Natalya. You are innocent and naive and you lack physical strength. This world will chew you alive."My dad wasn't wrong. He wasn't wrong at all but he betrayed me too. He l
