The Devil's Fire Torturing Gio
Althaia I had planned on visiting my father today since everyone had plans today, and Damiano was in his office, working. I didn’t want to disturb him so I killed time by playing with Kiara for a long while until I decided it was time to go. I knocked lightly on his office door in case he was on an important phone call. “Come in.” I opened the door and poked my head in to see if he was too busy. He hadn’t looked up yet and was still looking at some papers. “Hi.” His eyes immediately went to mine as soon as he heard my voice. “You don’t need to knock, you can come in whenever you want.” He had some papers in his hand but put them down, and gestured for me to go over to him. “I didn’t want to disturb you.” I walked around his desk, and he took a hold of my waist and placed me on his lap. “You will never be a disturbance to me. Next time, just walk in.” “I will try to remember that.” I placed a small kiss on his lips, making him smile at my action. “Doing anything interesting?”

Althaia We drove into the familiar driveway. My father’s mansion that I haven’t stepped foot in for so long. The memories I had of both of my parents in this house were crashing into my mind. I only have one parent now. “Hey, you okay?” Luca’s voice brought me out of my thoughts. “You’ve been staring at the house for a good five minutes, and haven’t made signs of getting out.” “Oh… I didn’t even notice.” I let out an embarrassed chuckle and got out of the car. “I’m going with you inside.” Giovanni said while he checked our surroundings with a blank expression. “No need for that. I’m pretty sure I’m safe in there.” He suddenly frowned and I followed his gaze. It was Carlos, who returned the glare before making his way inside the mansion. “Wasn’t that the cunt who gave you a cut on your face?” “How do you know about that?” I asked in surprise. He gave a small smirk. “Damiano made sure he got the same treatment. With a lil’ extra surprise.” I suddenly remembered when Damiano said

Althaia “Are you being serious?” I gaped at him as he smiled at me. “No, I took you to the airport for the fun of it.” I gave him a blank look to which he chuckled at. “I told you I would take you to Italy to meet the rest of my family, now is a good time before the wedding.” “Well, now I feel a little nervous.” I said. What if they didn’t like me at all, or thought of me as a bad match to Damiano since I wasn’t, well, the most obedient person? He did say his grandmother was a traditional and religious woman, maybe she wanted a woman like that for him. I knew Damiano came from a Catholic family but he wasn’t religious at all. He proved that in more than one way … “Don’t worry, I know they will love you.” “One can hope…” I muttered. Damiano opened the door for me and took my hand in his, leading us to the private jet. Now I was feeling nervous about flying. So many hours in the air in that thing… “Wait!” I stopped to look at him. “Something wrong?” He looked around my face, pr

Althaia My heart was thumping behind my chest in nervousness. Though I couldn’t help but look at Damiano with a soft look and a smile on my lips at how he introduced me. The love of his life. It made me let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding as he gazed lovingly at me. His mother and grandmother were visibly still in shock at the sight of me, and trying to process what Damiano had said to them. I could tell Damiano got his looks from his mother with her golden-brown eyes and her dark shoulder-length hair. She was incredibly beautiful with her tan skin as she wore a light copper-colored halter-neck dress. His grandmother was an elegant woman, standing tall with her dark brown eyes and black hair pulled into a bun, and wearing a long-sleeved dark green satin dress, making her look nothing less than royal. Not intimidating at all. “It’s nice to meet you.” I greeted them with a smile, squeezing Damiano’s hand to hide my nervousness. “My goodness, aren’t you a beauty!” His moth

Damiano I walked out to the backyard and took a seat on one of the sunbeds by the pool. I pulled out my pack of cigarettes and lit one, looking up at the balcony where Althaia’s room was. My grandmother had made it clear to me that I was not to step anywhere near Althaia’s room during the evening because the Devil will lure us and tempt us to commit unimaginable things. Too bad it was my favorite sin to commit with the love of my life. And I knew she was keeping an eye on me right now, which was why I was out here, killing time and waiting for her to fall asleep. That woman never failed to treat me like a boy instead of the man I’ve become. “Why is my son sitting out here by himself?” My mother was making her way toward me, always having a warm smile on her lips. “I’m waiting for Nonna to fall asleep.” I explained as I took another drag as she sat on the sunbed in front of me. “Of course you are.” She let out a small laugh. “She made me pray and splashed Holy Water on my face.”

Damiano I watched Althaia as she tried to stop laughing but failed so miserably. “So, your Nonna is really assuming you’re a virgin? A thirty-year-old virgin?” She asked in between chuckles but couldn’t stop and was now full-on laughing. She was laughing so hard that no sound was coming out and tears were visible in her eyes. “Apparently.” I smiled. She tried to compose herself and wiped away her tears. “That is too funny!” “She has always been like this. Nonna was after us, trying to teach us not to fool around with anyone until we got married.” “I can kind of understand that. To not let a bunch of hormonal boys fucking around and accidentally get someone preggo. But you were once engaged! Surely she wouldn’t expect you to be a virgin when you were in a serious relationship, right?” Althaia looked amused and moved to lie on her stomach, resting her chin in her hand, and looked at me with a raised brow. “Sienna… was different.” I placed my hands behind my head and closed my eye

AlthaiaI let out a yawn and sat up in the bed, stretching my arms. I looked around the bedroom confused for a second before remembering I was in Italy. I slept almost immediately after Damiano left as exhaustion hit me due to the long flight and, well, him being constantly horny. But I didn’t mind at all. I loved that I could pleasure him to the point where he wants to fuck me all the time.I take that as a major win in life.Also, after our talk and knowing his thoughts about still wanting children at some point, gave me a new sense of relief. I knew he wanted that baby so badly because if there was one thing I was truly surprised by, was how quickly he had comprehended that I was pregnant with his baby. He didn’t even freak out considering we had just gotten together. He just embraced everything with no hesitation at all. That was another reason why I knew he would be an incredible father one day.I got up from the soft bed to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face before

Althaia Luca’s words had me smiling as I grabbed something to eat. These cornettos smelled and looked delicious. “I’m going to get my ass kicked?” “Big time.” He said confidently, having me try to think of what it could be. “Dare to make a friendly bet?” I was one hell of a competitive person, and whatever we were going to do, I refused to get my ass kicked. “It’ll be the easiest money I’ll make.” Luca grinned, making me roll my eyes at him. “How much are we talking about?” He asked and I took a few seconds to think about it. I didn’t want to throw a high number in there in case I actually lost. “Hmm… Let’s say fifty!” I held my hand out and he shook it to seal the deal with a smug grin. “All right, fifty grand.” He said and I choked on my spit as he leaned back in his seat once again. “Wait, what?!” I gaped at him with my eyes wide. “You just said fifty?” Luca just looked at me slightly confused. “I meant fifty dollars! Not freaking fifty thousand dollars!” I exclaimed. Was

The Devil's Fire (BONUS) A Birthday To Remember
Althaia“Maybe we should have gotten me a change of clothes before coming here.” I said as I walked out to them while looking down at the tank top I had taken from Damiano, pretending to be fixing it. I was actually fixing it because my nipples were almost showing.Damiano looked up from his phone. His eyes slowly trailed down my body and his gaze stopped at my barely covered breasts. Whatever he was doing on his phone could wait as he carelessly tossed it on the couch.He gave me a lazy smirk and motioned for me to come closer to him. With a gentle yet firm grip, Damiano wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me flush against his body.“What’s the need for clothes when I plan to have you naked the entire time?” He said with a mischievous grin on his lips. I blushed, not expecting him to say something like this in front of them.As if remembering there were other people in our room, he looked at them with a blank look.“What are you still doing here? Get out.” He told them sharply.
The Devil's Fire Our Beautiful New Life
Althaia I huffed and looked at the time. It was a quarter to four in the morning, and I was wide awake. Feeling horny. I turned to look at Damiano, who was sleeping peacefully next to me. I wanted him, but I didn't want to wake him up just to take care of my needs. He had a long day ahead of him, flying out to a meeting with Mr. Roberts, and other high-end restaurant owners. They saw the custom-designed wine bottles for Mr. Robert's restaurants, and how they attracted more customers. Customers loved the whole idea of taking a unique wine bottle home with them as a souvenir. Some even started to collect them. The sales went crazy and landed us a few more deals. I suggested that each restaurant have its distinct design as a trademark, but with Damiano's wine business name engraved. And he was going to meet them all and show them my sketch ideas. I would have gone with him, but since I was heavily pregnant, I couldn’t fly. Maybe it was because I knew he would be gone, and wouldn’t b
The Devil's Fire Forever & Always
Five months later The sun was high up in the clear sky, shining over the crystal blue water in the most enchanting way. Calilo was always a beautiful island, but today, it was even more breathtaking. The beach was elegantly decorated and rows of chairs lined up endlessly on the bright green grass. A mirrored aisle had been set up in the middle with either side decorated so stunningly with Angel’s and Devil’s trumpet flowers. At the end of the aisle was a grand gazebo with pillars decorated with colorful flowers. A crowd of people was present, chatting and finding their seats. By the gazebo stood Damiano, overlooking the crowd of their friends and families. Everyone had flown out to make sure to witness this special day. Damiano had a small crease between his brows, shuffling around on his feet for the first time in his life as he kept fixing his tie, double-checking to make sure he at least looked decent enough on such a meaningful day. “Nervous, brother?” Lorenzo walked up to him
The Devil's Fire Let It Burn
Althaia Ellie was already at the clinic, waiting for us when we arrived. The closer we got to the examination room, the more anxious I got. I was dreading it more than ever. To get that confirmation that it was another miscarriage. That another life was lost in me. I felt suffocated. Damiano, Antonio, and Giovanni were just as worried. No one bothered to mask their emotions as they were concerned for my well-being and what was going to happen. “So, what are we dealing with?” Ellie asked once she closed the door to give us some privacy while Antonio and Giovanni waited outside. “I took a pregnancy test, it was positive but… I’m bleeding and cramping.” I swallowed hard as Ellie listened carefully to me. Damiano stayed close to me, holding me as if I would collapse at any moment. What I loved about Ellie was that even though she knew us, she was still being professional and not letting us see if she was concerned as she listened to me. “Okay, we will do a blood test and do a transv
The Devil's Fire The Truth
Althaia My eyes welled as I could feel the pain, and my heart ached for them both. The fact that my mother was going to tell them, maybe even holding onto the hope that they could finally be together. But no. For her own protection, mine even, she had to accept that was how her life was going to be. And I couldn’t even imagine what Alexei must be feeling now. To know he was close to being told he was going to have a child with the woman he loved. But his own mother stood in his way and took the truth with her to the grave. Nestor looked completely taken aback as he looked at my mother and followed Alexei once he came to his senses. I was sure Alexei needed some time to think it all through. I didn’t say anything, giving my mother some time to gather herself. I looked at Damiano, he was leaning against the wall with his arms crossed, already looking at me. I couldn’t tell if he was truly interested in the story or not as he wore a straight face. Then I knew he wasn’t interested wh
The Devil's Fire An Old Flame
Althaia As soon as Alexei drew out his gun, Damiano pulled me behind him and he and his men pulled out their guns as well, finger on the trigger and ready to fire. But then Nestor quickly pushed Alexei away when a knife flew right in between them, missing Alexei’s head by a hair. Surprised and confused, everyone turned to look in the direction where the knife came from. My mother had her brows pinched with her gaze locked on Alexei, ready with another knife in her hand. “Did you forget how she loved to do that to you?” Nestor sighed at Alexei. But he was too focused on my mother with a furious gaze. “Seems like her aim is off.” He sneered. “It’s not off, it was simply a warning. I got you once, and I can do it again.” My mother spoke calmly but had a whole different demeanor to her. My jaw was on the floor as I looked at them back and forth in pure shock. This whole damn thing had me completely dumbfounded. Wasn’t Alexei the one who had demanded to see her, and almost started a
The Devil's Fire Let It End
AlthaiaI didn’t think it was possible to feel more miserable than this. But I kept being dragged down into an endless, dark hole while drowning in fear and pure devastation.I was exhausted.Exhausted from everything that happened and exhausted from every single piece of information thrown at me. I still haven’t even processed the fact that Gaetano wasn’t my father. And then everything else followed as if trying to give me a heart attack by exposing the brutal truth to me.That my entire life has been a fucking lie.Twenty-five years old and I was suddenly having an identity crisis that appeared out of the blue. For so many years where it has just been me and my mother, living life together. But it turned out I didn’t even know who she truly was.My mother, who I thought I witnessed die, was somewhere in this safe-house.Well, and alive.I thought I was hallucinating when I saw her. Or maybe I was seeing a ghost. Or maybe I ended up in hell and this was my punishment. To be tormented
The Devil's Fire No More Secrets
Damiano“No. Stay here.” I stopped Jacinta when she tried to go after Althaia. I knew she would be shocked and in denial but I wasn’t prepared for this kind of reaction and run away.I gritted my teeth, walking as fast as I could in the direction she ran off. This fucking gunshot wound was limiting me too much.I stepped outside to the garden, watching her leaning against a tree to catch her breath.“Althaia.” I frowned, looking at the state she was in.“Stop! Just.. please stop. Don’t come any closer.” She closed her eyes, trying her best to control her breathing. I clenched my fists in frustration. Frustrated with me that I was the cause of this. I stood still, watching her cry and gasp for air. And I would rather get shot a hundred times more than see her like this.“How… How could you do this to me?!” Althaia shouted at me with so much anger than I had ever seen from her. Her innocent, green eyes turned into ones with a rage-filled storm.And betrayal.“I did what I believed was t
The Devil's Fire The Aftermath
DamianoAlthaia was shocked.Shocked to the point her body gave up under her and collapsed to the ground. I grabbed her and pulled her into me, gritting my teeth as I ignored my own pain when I saw the state she was in. I didn’t give two shits about Alexei at this moment, only worrying about her. She looked numb, lost, as she tried to comprehend what I just said. For once, Alexei kept quiet and had his men stand by as he looked at Althaia.His daughter.He hadn’t expressed what he thought of the situation. About him having a daughter. But he was pissed at her mother for keeping away and not telling him. Twenty-five years had he lived on with his life without knowing he had a child out in the world. And to make it worse for him, his daughter thought Gaetano was her father.An Italian man who married his woman“Come on, breathe, Althaia… There you go… Breathe.” She gasped for air and I felt how her entire body was shaking against mine. I held her tightly, even though I was struggling to
