The Devil Has Feelings Too 16
AzzurraAdriano was watching me.I felt his gaze on me, a heavy weight pressing against my skin like a silent demand. He was across the room, drink in hand, surrounded by men who wielded power like a weapon. Yet his focus wasn’t on them. It was on me, and it made me feel giddy against my wish. Adriano doesn't matter. What matters is me stealing this ring so I can buy my freedom.The man in front of me was eating me up with his eyes, and I wasn’t even trying yet. His gaze kept dipping to my cleavage like it was a magnet, and I had to bite back a smirk. Men were predictable. Give them something to look at, and their brain turned to mush. This one was no different. “So, tell me, tesoro,” I purred, running my fingers along the rim of my glass. “You seem like a man who knows things. Maybe you can help me.” His mouth curled into a sleazy grin, and his thick fingers traced patterns on the back of my hand. “That depends, bella. What do you need?” His breath smelled like whiskey and ci

Azzurra Stealing from a man like Marcello Rodrigo was dangerous. Stealing something as important as his ring? That was suicide. And yet, here I was. The dim lights of the club flickered, casting golden shadows over the polished floors. The air was thick with cigar smoke and the scent of expensive whiskey. Laughter and low murmurs filled the room, but I wasn’t paying attention to any of it. I had one job, which was, take the ring and get out. Adriano had given me this job. He had looked at me with those cold, calculating eyes and told me exactly what he wanted. "Steal Marcello’s ring," he had said. "The mafia ring." I had known what he meant. That ring wasn’t just jewelry. It was a symbol of power, proof that Marcello was the boss. Without it, he was nothing. Adriano and Marcello had never liked each other. They were enemies, two powerful men always trying to outplay each other. And now, Adriano had decided to make a move. And I was his pawn. But I didn’t care. I didn’t wor

Azzurra The leather of the car seats was cold against my skin. My heart hammered against my ribs, a trapped bird desperate for escape. I stared out the window at the hall we just came out from, it was a reminder of the freedom I’d lost. Adriano. The name tasted like ash in my mouth. He’d played me, used me as bait, and then… nothing. He’d watched me being dragged away, a cruel amusement twisting his lips. I thought I understood him, thought I could read the calculations behind his cold eyes but I was wrong. So terribly wrong. My hands were tied tightly behind my back, the rough rope biting into my wrists. I tugged at it, a futile attempt to loosen the knots, but it was no use. These men, Marcello’s men, were professionals. They wouldn’t make a mistake. Just like I hadn’t made a mistake with the ring. It was still tucked away, safe and sound but what good was it now? It was a prize I couldn’t claim, a bargaining chip I couldn’t use. A sharp knock on the window made me flinch. "Whe

Azzurra The room smelled of cigars and whiskey, the air thick with tension and the weight of too many secrets. A velvet-topped card table stood between them, the final hands played with measured precision. Marcello leaned back in his chair, a smirk curving his lips as he dragged a cigar between his fingers, tapping the ash into the tray without a care in the world. “Last round,” Adriano said, voice low and cold, like he already knew how this was going to end. Marcello chuckled, the sound grating and full of cocky bravado. “Afraid to lose, capo?” His dark eyes flicked toward Adriano, sharp with amusement, almost daring him to react. Adriano didn’t take the bait. He just exhaled slowly, fingers drumming once on the table before settling back into that unreadable stillness of his. His control had always been a dangerous thing, a weapon as sharp as the gun tucked beneath his suit. Marcello’s fingers curled around his cards, lifting them just enough to see. I caught the flicker of

Adriano I should have been furious. I should have shut her up the second she started screaming at me, the second she threw my own fucking actions back in my face. But instead, I just stood there, letting Azzurra’s rage crash over me. Because for the first time in my life, I felt something I had never expected to feel. Guilt. I had put her on that damn table, made her a fucking bet, as if she was nothing more than a pile of chips. And even though I knew I was going to win, even though there had never been a chance in hell that Marcello would walk away with her, I had still done it. I had made her feel like she was nothing and that was a mistake. Azzurra wasn’t nothing. She was fire. She was fury. She was the only person who had ever looked me in the eye and called me out on my shit. I let out a sharp breath, dragging a hand through my hair. I needed to put this out of my mind. Guilt was a fucking useless emotion. In my world, it had no place. Just as I turned toward

Azzurra I swore to myself that I would never, ever cross paths with any of the Giordanos. They all hated me. The house was big enough to avoid them for about a month. But like all the other wishes I had ever had, this one never came true. Because that morning, I found myself in the worst possible situation. I was supposed to clean the Beta’s room, just like I did every morning. It was supposed to be an easy task, change the sheets, dust the furniture, mop the floor, and leave. No drama. No trouble. But of course, trouble found me anyway. As I walked into the Beta’s room, bucket and mop in hand, I froze. Andrea was there. Not just standing in the middle of the room but crouched near the bathroom door, her body pressed close to the wooden frame as she peeked inside. At first, I had no idea what she was doing. But then I heard the sound of running water, followed by the unmistakable hum of a man’s voice. Realization hit me like a slap to the face. Andrea was spying

Azzurra The next morning, I woke up with Luna Vienna’s words still ringing in my head. "Be careful. In a world ruled by men, a woman must be twice as ruthless to survive." I didn’t know if she meant it as a warning, a lesson, or both. But one thing was clear, Luna Vienna wasn’t a woman to underestimate. And neither was Andrea. As I made my way through the servants' quarters, I caught sight of her down the hall, speaking in hushed tones with a few of the other high-ranking women. Her expression was poised, her laughter soft and deceptive. But when her gaze flicked to me, the amusement disappeared. For a moment, we just stared at each other. A silent challenge. I didn’t look away first. With a small smirk, Andrea turned back to her conversation, but I knew she hadn’t forgotten about yesterday. Neither had I. I kept my head down and continued walking, gripping my cleaning supplies a little tighter. I had just finished my morning tasks when a maid rushed in, breathle

Azzurra A chance? I clenched my jaw, hating that I even considered it. But what choice did I have? I exhaled sharply, forcing my shoulders to stay steady. “Fine. I’ll do it.” Adriano smirked like he had expected my answer all along. Like he knew I was predictable. It pissed me off. “Good girl.” I scowled, crossing my arms over my chest. “Fuck off.” His chuckle was low, full of amusement, like he found my irritation entertaining. “Such a mouth on you.” “Yeah? Well, you bring it out of me,” I shot back, not bothering to soften the edge in my voice. He tilted his head, studying me. “Is that so?” I lifted my chin. “You’re insufferable.” “And yet, here you are.” He stepped past me, reaching for the door. “Come with me.” I hesitated for a second, my instincts screaming at me to be careful. But in the end, I followed. The hallways were dimly lit, lined with aged wooden panels that made the space feel even more suffocating. Adriano walked ahead, his posture easy, confident. Contr

AZZURRA Being Andrea’s personal maid wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. At first, I hated the idea. Wearing this ridiculous uniform that barely covered anything, following Andrea around like a lost puppy and dealing with her mood swings? It sounded like a fucking nightmare. But after a few weeks, I started to realize something Andrea didn’t actually hate me. Oh, she was still a spoiled brat, still annoying as hell, but she wasn’t cruel. She didn’t treat me like shit the way some of the other rich assholes in this house did. Maybe it was because she secretly enjoyed my suffering, or maybe just maybe it was because I knew about her little habit. The one where I found her spying on the Beta.Andrea never brought it up, but there was a gleam in her eye sometimes, like she was waiting for me to say it.Not happening. But there was something else I noticed about her. Every night, she came home late. Drunk and she always smelled like different colognes. One night, it was

AZZURRA If there was one thing I had learned since stepping into Adriano’s world, it was that Luna Vienna was a force to be reckoned with. A woman like her didn’t need to raise her voice or throw tantrums to make her presence known, one sharp look, one carefully chosen word, and she could bring anyone to their knees. I didn’t want to be one of those people. Which meant I had to find a way to get on her good side. If Adriano, with all his power and control, couldn’t say no to his mother, then what chance did I have? Fighting her would be a losing battle. So, I made a decision, one that felt like swallowing glass. I would try to befriend Luna Vienna. The problem was, how did you make friends with a woman who seemed determined to make your life as difficult as possible? It was like trying to befriend a mother-in-law who had already decided you weren’t good enough for her son. And worse, she enjoyed making that clear. I spent the next few days trying to navigate her presenc

ADRIANO I ran a hand down my face, exhaling sharply as I watched Azzurra bolt out of my room like the damn house was on fire. My mother, meanwhile, stood in the doorway with the same infuriatingly calm expression she always wore; cool, composed, and completely fucking unreadable. I clenched my jaw. "Did you have to do that?" Luna Vienna lifted an elegant brow. "Do what?" I let out a humorless laugh. "Really? You barge into my room, unannounced, scare the shit out of Azzurra, and now you're playing dumb?" She stepped inside like she owned the place, which, technically, she did. She smoothed a hand over the sleeve of her dress, gaze flicking over my still-unbuttoned shirt with a look of mild disapproval. "You should be thanking me." "For what?" I snapped. "For stopping you from making a mistake," she said simply. "That girl isn’t worth the trouble, Adriano." My fists clenched. "You don’t get to decide that." Her lips twitched slightly, like she was amused by my defian

Azzurra Adriano didn’t say a word as the car pulled into the driveway of his estate. His grip on my waist remained firm, his dark eyes locked on mine as if daring me to break the silence. I didn’t. I didn’t trust my voice, didn’t trust myself not to say something I’d regret—something that would only push him further. The driver stepped out first, but Adriano didn’t let me move. Instead, his fingers traced the curve of my jaw, his touch light but possessive. “You’re coming with me.” Not a question. A command. I exhaled sharply. “Like I have a choice?” His lips curled at the edges, amused by my defiance. “You always have a choice, Azzurra. You just never make the right one.” Before I could respond, he opened the door and stepped out, pulling me with him. His grip on my wrist never loosened as he led me inside. The house was quiet, the dim lighting casting shadows against the sleek marble floors. It felt too intimate, too dangerous, like I was walking into something I

Azzurra I was grateful—grateful to God, to fate, to whatever force had given me the strength to push him away before I lost myself. Before I surrendered to the temptation of his lips, his touch, his presence that made it impossible to think straight. My heart pounded, my breath uneven as I pushed him away with all the strength I could muster. Adriano barely moved, his body solid like a damn wall, but he let me go, his dark eyes watching me with something between amusement and frustration. I took a shaky breath, gripping the edge of the nearby table to steady myself. My pulse was still racing, but not entirely from fear. That was the problem. I clenched my fists and glared at him. “What the hell do you think you’re doing?” My voice came out sharper than I intended, but I didn’t care. Adriano tilted his head slightly, looking at me like the answer was obvious. “What does it look like?” I swallowed hard, my skin still tingling from where his hands had been. He made it sound so
