I look at Luciano and back to Lorenzo. "What are the chances that can happen to you, Lorenzo?" I'm scared as hell.

"It won't."

"Lorenzo, you can't say it won't if there is a chance."

His hands grasp my cheeks. "It's unlikely, okay? I mean this, if I get a warning and it looks likely to happen, I will hang up my gloves, I swear it to you."

Nodding, I cuddle against him.

"I won't leave you, Alice, I promise. I go for CT scans and everything."

Sitting, I look at him. Does he think I'm a fool? I'm not a fool. "Lorenzo, I know what CTE is and that it can't be found like that." I know I read up on it when I took up boxing. I know that CTE is something that can't be diagnosed with tests; it's a combination of things, but then it isn't a definite result.

"You're right. The only test for it can only be done during a biopsy, so how about this?" He looks at me. "If I have signs of it, I will stop."

"You blacking out is a sign."

He chuckles. "I've not done that since I stopped drinking so much. T

    I am respectful and talk to them. Sitting, I watch Alice walk out with her mother into the kitchen to make drinks. Sitting up, I look at him, ready for the whole 'Stay the fuck away from my little girl' speech."What is your deal with my daughter?" And there it is. I try not to laugh, I have a habit of joking about, and well, I would look like a proper cunt."She is an amazing woman." I smile at him. "One who I love and has made me change in so many ways.""I don't understand. If you two were dating, why was she also dating this other guy?"Ah, awkward. "We weren't dating, and she didn't mention dating anyone when we slept together." His eyes widen."So she was just sex to you."Laughing, I shake my head. "Your daughter was never just sex to me. I have always liked her, but my lifestyle at the time was complicated and made me seem unavailable.""You had a partner." He looks at me in disgust."No, actually, your daughter is my first relationship." I sigh and look at him. "Look, I didn'

    After visiting my parents, things were tense. I don't blame Lorenzo. He was standing up for himself and for me. I just know it means that the relationship I have with my mother is now stretched even more thinly.It's been two days since we went to my parents. Lorenzo has spent nearly every second of it with me and Luciano. He seems so different, but still amazing."Ahm." I glance up, confused. "Lucia is watching him for us.""What?" Why? I stare at him, confused, and he grins."We're going out. So, hand him here. I will go take him to Lucia and then come back and tell you what you're wearing." He smirks at me."You're telling me what I'm wearing?" I tilt my head, amused."Yes." I watch him take Luciano and leave. I feel like I'm missing something. A few minutes later, he walked back in and smiled at me. His hands are behind his back as he steps closer to the bed.He moves, holding out a bag."Erm, what's that?""Your outfit, go shower, little kitten." Kissing my cheek, he turned and w

    "How many of the workers have you fucked here, Lorenzo?" I hear his laugh. Turning, he faces me."I'm offended you would think I have." I tilt my head, and he laughs. "None, not a single one. That makes things complicated. Complicated and business don't mix well.""Oh, so had it not got complicated, you would?" I laugh, and he nods."Not everyone, there's a few." My eyes roll at his words. His hands settle on my ass, and he pulls me closer to him. "Stop getting jealous. Or I will.""What do you have to be jealous over Lorenzo?" I tilt my head, waiting."The men who are currently trying to stare at your ass through my hands." My lip twitches, "It's a fucking amazing ass." His lips find mine, and I get lost in the kiss, his hand tangled into my hair. He pulls back and smiles. "Come on." He walks down more and opens a door.We walk in, and I stop at the couple having sex."This room is exhibitionists, those who like the idea of people watching. Also, Voyeursm, those who enjoy watching."

    I watch as she falls asleep crying against my chest, and it fucking hurts. It hurts more that the cunt is walking around somewhere. We made the mistake of handing him over to the police. Sighing, I move and grab my phone.Sending a message to Dario, I get dressed. Placing a robe around her body, I glance at his message. Lifting her, I carry her out and get into the car."You can stay Dario. Take the key for the bike.""Nope, it's a sign to leave."I laugh at his words."Trust me, it's a sign I should leave. Is she okay?" He nods at Alice, and I shrug, I don't fucking know. I'm out of my comfort zone here."I fucked up, didn't I?" I feel like I did for taking her there."No, she went with you, Lorenzo. She agreed to go. She stayed. Don't think this is your fault." His words are stern, but I feel like it is my fault. "I can't give advice on it, Lorenzo. I would say ask Marco, but from what I know, Lucia didn't have the issues because she has numbed her mind to it. So speak to Matteo."M

    Today has been quiet, maybe even awkward. Lorenzo has been watching my every move, analysing everything I'm doing. I can't blame him, though. I was OK, great, but then I crashed hard.This morning was different than last night. Then, right at the final moment, as I orgasmed, his words slipped into my mind and turned all the pleasure I had felt into disgust.He won't like me tomorrow when I leave. I have to; things need sorting out with my mother, and I can't sort things out with him there. After bathing Luciano, I get him settled for the night. I sit on the bed, unsure of where Lorenzo is. I want to go find him, but I won't. He might be busy, and I don't want him coming to spend time with me if he is.~~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~Last night was weird. I barely slept; I woke up often, and Lorenzo wasn't in bed. He wasn't in bed this morning, either. I watch him play with Luciano, and I can't avoid it anymore."I need to go out today." He looks up at me, confused. "I need to go see my parents.""Th

    I walk through and sit by the pool, my body shaking as I try and calm down."She didn't mean it, little bro." Marco sits and takes Luciano from me."She fucking did. I don't give a shit about that, but accepting that she will still speak to her mother even if she never accepts Luciano is fucked up."He sighs and nods. "There must be something between Alice and her mother to keep her going back, Lorenzo. Kind of like an abusive relationship where the abused constantly returns.""I don't know." I don't, as she still hasn't told me shit about her life."Go ask Dario to keep you occupied in the gym." He smiles at me and walks away with Luciano. Standing, I walk through. Getting in the gym, Dario turns to look at me."Let's go." He laughs and throws gloves at me."No, you don't, come on kiddo." Our father steps forward. He's gonna beat my ass. I know it. Nodding, I pull the gloves on and join him in the ring."You two have a toxic relationship, you realise that, right?" I turn, shocked by

    Walking in, the woman raises her head."Alice?"She holds out a phone. "She's through the back. Seems to be on a self-destruct mission right now."I don't reply and just walk through. People turn and stare. I've not been in a place like this since before Alice. Sighing, I walk through the crowds, searching for her. My body freezes when I see her kissing someone. Rushing forward, I pull her back and punch him.I hear his laugh and freeze. Danni? "What's up, Lorenzo?" I go to hit him and hear her throw up. Turning, I grab her as she passes out. "Oh, was she yours? You see, I couldn't remember. She didn't seem to care anyway." I ignore him and turn my back."Walk away, Lorenzo, go on, run." I turn and face him."What are you aiming for, Danni? Another match as last time it was you out cold with the paramedics rushing you to hospital."He laughs and steps forward. "If we weren't in a ring, it would have been you on the floor, let's be honest." I place her down on a chair and turn to face

    I've lost it. I keep swinging and hitting him. Screaming, I call him a prick, and he takes it all while looking at me smugly, which makes me even more angry.Slowly, my arms tire, and I stop. Lorenzo’s arms wrap around me, and he lifts me against him. My mouth presses against his, my tongue moving through and into his mouth. I fight to remove the gloves, and when they finally drop, I grasp him and pull him closer. He moves, lying down on the mat with me below him.My moans flow through me into his mouth as I fight to grasp his cock, his hands stoke along my thighs, pushing the dress up higher, his fingers slipping between my legs.I grasp his cock, trying to push down on it, and our kiss somehow becomes more feral. He grips my hands, his hips thrusting, and I cry out as his cock pushes inside of me. Grasping him, my nails dig into his skin, his hips rocking as I moan against him.My legs cage him to me, my nails drawing along his body as he moves faster and harder. The pleasure floods

    I'm so fucking happy. This is the best Christmas ever. She's pregnant, Alex is officially ours, and she's marrying me! Tonight! I left her for a bit. Her dad is here, so they are talking everything out. I wanted to be there but knew she needed space to do it herself. I look across the chairs and other things. She wanted to come outside, but we banned her. She can't see this, not until later. "It's looking good." Lorenzo smiles at me. "Have you considered this, Dario?" Marco looks at me. "She said yes! She said she would marry me." She said yes. "I know, but I mean the whole surprise wedding; she said yes, but that doesn't mean now." "Yes, it does!" She wouldn't say yes if she weren't ready now. She's ready. She will say yes. She will love this. "Okay, calm down, you're too high." Marco chuckles, but I can't. I feel amazing right now. "How is it going with her dad?" Matteo looks at me. "No idea. I gave her space." I'm giving her space. "Matteo, he's staying at your house toni

    I walked out of the room feeling sickened. Not so much that he had slept with my mother, more he slept with me purely because I looked like her. Like in his mind, I was her. I need to check on Alex. Walking into his room he's sat up on the bed looking at the book. "Read it?" He holds out the book, and I laugh. "Move over." I climb onto the bed, and he cuddles into me as I read it to him. Today is Christmas. I didn't realise, but Lucia had the baby on Christmas day! It's nearly three. I read to him, watching as he fell asleep. Slowly, my eyes slip closed. I wake feeling someone wrap their arms around me. Glancing behind me, I see Dario. I open my mouth to talk, and he shakes his head. "No. Leave it, little rabbit. Let's just sleep for a couple of hours." He holds onto me, and I fall asleep, with him and Alex cuddling me. I need to get answers later. I wake up in bed alone. Neither Alex nor Dario are here. Climbing from the bed, I go to our room and begin to get ready. "Little ra

    So far, this guy hasn't been forthcoming. It's Christmas, and we're wasting time on him. Sure, we could just forget him and go to bed for as few hours as possible before getting up, but he's a risk. Alice came to get the baby, and Lucia is currently resting. So this needs sorting now. He's not someone who can be trusted alone, even with soldiers. "I never would have hurt her." I look up, confused. "Evaline, my plan was never to touch her or harm her. Weirdly, she is just like her mother. She's amazing." "How did you meet her mum?" I want to get her answers. "I had just taken down a target and was ready to leave when I saw her. I was twenty-eight, and she was thirty-nine. She was so different. She was so amazing I just went over and said hi, which is how it began. At that point, Evaline was born." "Did you see Evaline?" "No!" His head shakes. "I never did; we had been sleeping together for years. She wouldn't let me see Evaline. She spoke of her. He found out about the affair and

    I look at Marco. He's heard nothing. "It's Christmas. Maybe just leave it until after today?" Lorenzo looks at me. "I can't do much, Lorenzo." I can't do anything without information that we don't have. "This is your first official Christmas with Evaline, don't fuck it up." Our dad looks at me, and I know he's right. The gunshot has us all jump up and rush out. I watch as a window smashes and smoke begins to flood the hall. "Get the women and kids!" Marco screams, rushing upstairs; I grab Luciano, Lorenzo grabs Alice, and I see soldiers follow Marco up to Lucia and Evaline. Carrying Luciano down, I sit him in the safe room. Rushing up, I see someone carrying Alex. "Put it on." I see something throw a mask at me. Placing it on, I rush up and see Evaline fighting to get to Alex's room. "Alex is downstairs, little rabbit, go." I watch as she disappears. Rushing through, I get to our room and see him. Throwing myself at him, someone grabs me and stops, and I watch them grab him. "D

    I wake hearing a bang, my eyes adjusting to the darkness. I reach out to Dario, but he isn't there. The sound of gunshots has my body jump up and out of bed. Rushing, I get the gown and wrap it around my body as the windows in the room smash, and smoke begins to fill the room. I rush for the door and hear something. Turning, I look behind me and see someone jump through the window. Running out the door, I get grabbed. Screaming, I go to hit him. "Evaline, go with him!" Marco? I feel them pull me, but I try to get to Alex. I need to get Alex. Screaming, I fight against him. "Alex is downstairs, little rabbit, go." I don't get a chance to respond. I'm just pulled further away. As we reach downstairs, I'm thrown into a room and the door locks. "Evaline, thank god you're okay!" Lucia rushes and hugs me. I look around, Alice, Lucia, Alex, and Luciano are in here, and I believe it's James. I'm not sure which soldier it is. "What is happening?" I look around us. This room has no windo

  • The Don's Damsel: Brothers Of Blood Book One   Evaline - Getting Lost

    Dario's arms stay around me as we dance. He started out fine, but in the past week, he's been slowly drowning and getting lost in his mind. I know he's constantly overthinking what is happening. Everything I try fails. Sex works while we're having sex, and then he's back in his head. It's taking so much effort to keep him here and with us. The last thing we need is for something to happen and for him to slip away in his mind and not wait for answers. So, I need to keep his mind off Mad Hatter or Tim, as they haven't been able to find anything. Marco even tried to send a message out for my dad in the hope he would reply and give us something, but it's been silent. I lean up and kiss his lips. "We haven't spoken about how many kids you want." I smile, and he looks at me so damn confused. "Babies, Dario, how many do you want?" "I just want you." My eyes roll. "You have me. We have Alex. I want to know about us making babies. How many?" He seems to be considering it. "I would be hap

    It's too quiet, and I don't like quiet, not in this way. Quiet in my head, fine, but this feels wrong. He's gone quiet. He's stopped sending messages out. He's ignoring us. He's planning, he's planning something, what is he planning? I pace the room. Today is Matteo's engagement party. Tomorrow is Christmas. It's too fucking quiet. Quietly, quietly, not a sound. I'm listening and listening. "Dario!" I turn, and Marco is staring at me. "You're singing." He holds out his hands. "We were waiting for you!" "I..." Something is wrong. Quietly, quietly, not a sound. I'm listening and listening. "Dario!" I glance at him. "Get out of your head, focus." I can't focus. It's too quiet. "Okay, tell me what is in your head. You keep singing quietly, quietly, so speak." "It's too quiet." It's too quiet. "Right, and I agree it is. It's unusual. He's gone quiet; he's not responding, but stay out of your head. It's been half an hour. How long have you been standing here pacing and singing in yo

    I sit with Dario. His brothers and his dad are facing me. "You slept with him, just say." Marco laughs. "I did, but that isn't it. That time, I never returned; about a year into it, Dale had bought a holiday home. He sent me to it alone and told me not to leave as it wasn't safe. I stayed there for maybe six months. A few weeks after I got there, the guy showed up. He basically moved in with me." I see Carlos' mouth drop open. "He never stayed in one place!" "He stayed with me. Dale would send maybe one message a week saying I wasn't safe and to stay hidden. If I tried messaging him, it wouldn't go through. I told him I couldn't keep calling him Mad Hatter, so he said to call him Tim for now. That wasn't his name, I don't think. He confided in me, told me about his childhood and things, and I know I should have said, but I saw him as a friend." Which was stupid. "And now you don't? Why?" Marco looks at me, waiting. "Because now I realise he was trying to get information from me.

    Dario pushes me to sit in a seat and faces me. He's looking at me like I'm about to blow everything up. I feel like I am. I didn't tell him everything, not because I didn't want him to know, but because I had no idea how or if he would handle this. Then, I just figured out things while he was getting Alex in bed. "Little rabbit, please." He looks at me, almost begging. "I didn't tell you everything. I stayed at a small holiday home without Dale for about six months. I have no idea where he went. Tim, or Mad Hatter as we know him, stayed with me." "You knew his fucking name!" "No! I told him I felt awkward calling him Mad Hatter, so he said to call him Tim, which could be his name for now. His name isn't Tim. It's just a name he said to call him, so I didn't have to call him Mad Hatter." "You don't know for sure, little rabbit, why the fuck did you live with him for six months!" "Dale was gone. I don't know where or why. He was just gone. Tim isn't a bad guy, or I thought. Dale h
