Bella fluttered her eyes open in the morning. Her neck was stiff from sleeping in an awkward position. She stretched her hands to ease the stiffness in her shoulders. Once her body relieved tension she sighed deeply as last night's incident flashed in her memory and once again tears welled her eyes. She slowly stood up and looked around with an aching body. The room was brutally destroyed. She wiped the tears from her swollen eyes and looked for Aaron in his room but He was not there. She looked into the balcony, it was empty too. Her stomach clenched in fear, thinking what if He hurt himself. She recalled the cut on his hand and with shaky fingers, she called on his phone. But He didn't accept the call, she tried many times but everytime the call went to voicemail.Bella didn't know what to say on voicemail, she had no idea if she was entitled to say anything at all or not, a sob left her mouth, "I am sorry, Aaron. Please come back." She whispered before ending the call. She paced a
Bella inhaled deeply to calm her racing heart when Aaron laid her on his bed carefully and straightened up as He stared at the pure and innocent beauty in front of him. He eyed her from head to toe, her long black wet hair curled slightly. There was a blush on her cheeks and her breathing was shallow. No one looked as enticing as she looked at this moment, her beauty was raw and pure, bare of any artificial effect. His wife was pure in every way, from in and out. He swallowed as the tension in his body was increasing just by looking at her. He couldn't imagine what would happen when He would actually touch her intimately. Firework! Something shifted inside Aaron seeing her waiting for him, the girl who didn't allow anyone to touch her was waiting for him in the bed. A possessive feeling erupted in him at the thought and He promised to make this as pleasurable as He could for her, even if He had to wait for his pleasure. He would gladly do it. Aaron could also see the tension in her
Bella gasped loudly into the kiss, she closed her eyes when He rolled his thumb around her perked nipple, Bella grabbed his shoulders tightly to remain on his lap. Aaron pulled her to him, Bella was basically lying on his body, Aaron left her lips and kissed the pulse on her neck, teasing the spot with the tip of his tongue and giving her bosom a soft squeeze. Bella moaned and turned her head to the right, giving him better access to her neck. Aaron slided the bathrobe off her shoulder, exposing her naked flesh to his lips and tongue as He kissed her naked skin everywhere, peppering small kisses, igniting the fire inside her every passing second. He slowly opened the bathrobe fully. Bella was so lost in the world of sensuality that she didn't notice when He laid her down on the bed and took one of her nipples in his mouth, playing with it with his tongue. He squeezed and pinched her another bosom with his free hand and left a groan out of his throat. “So soft!” He murmured. Bella
Bella arched her back in anticipation as Her muscles started easing against his huge manhood. He felt her vagina barrier. He knew it would be painful for her but He needed to break it so that she could enjoy the pleasure afterwards so He kept moving forward. Bella let out a painful cry and grabbed his shoulders tightly when Aaron broke her virginity. She forgot all the pleasure she was feeling and started crying in pain.Aaron halted his movements and pushed his weight on one hand, with the other He wiped her tears and kissed her forehead. "I will wait until you get comfortable, my Bella." He cocooned her while peppering soft kisses on her whole face. Bella squeezed her eyes, her face squirmed in pain but she opened her eyes once his lips rested on her pressed lips. She rewarded him with a short soft smile. She wanted him to feel pleasure too. Suddenly Bella's thoughts went to the girls who had shared this kind of intimacy with Aaron before her and a sharp jealousy and ache screamed
It was almost midnight when they reached their hotel in Venice. And just like Sicily, He had booked the whole floor for himself in the hotel. "You can take any room you want for yourself, Bella."She looked at him, confused over his statement. "My room?" She asked him. He still wanted to live in different rooms. Then what about last night in Sicily. Just a few hours ago we were in each other's arms and now He was asking me to choose a different room for myself. Shouldn't we be sharing the same room from now on. She rolled her lips inside and swallowed the nervous lump in her throat. She was confused over the whole scenario. Aaron was behaving like nothing happened in between them.“But…but I thought…" she started to speak her mind but couldn't as she didn't want to look desperate, losing her courage she looked down and nodded. "I will take this one," she said pointing at the room they were standing in.Aaron placed her luggage in her room and kissed her head. "I know what you are t
Wake up, Ash." Asher groaned when his mother's voice pierced through his ears. He didn't want to wake up and the voice was bursting his head. Olivia watched Asher, disappointed with his childish nature. "Wake up, Asher!" She snapped once again and this time Asher opened his eyes a little, "My head is bursting, Mama.""Asher Salvatore Knight!" She yelled at her son as she jerked his hand and forced him to sit. "Mama…""Sit up. You have already lost your position, what more do you want to lose?" Asher raked his hand over his face, forced his eyes fully open and looked at his mother. "I didn't lose, Nonno gave it to Flavio!" He said and squeezed his eyes as yelling increased the pain in his head. Olivia gritted her jaws tightly in anger. "Your Nonno did that because he saw you are not fit to be the second-in-command. Anyone would have done that seeing your childishness! Either you give up on this behaviour or the day is not far when you will lose more than a position in Cosa Nostra!"
Sabrina halted in her steps. She was stunned hearing his words, excitement ran through her body as she heard the name Velenoso. She turned around and looked at him with greedy eyes. "And How do you know about it?"Asher shrugged. "As I said, I was in Sicily and heard a lot of things about it. I also have some pictures of his oath ceremony." Asher was burning inside as he thought about how his family insulted him and favoured Flavio over him. Sabrina sprinted towards him eagerly. She wanted to know all the things he knew about The Velenoso and his oath ceremony. She had heard many rumours about Cosa Nostra's oath ceremony, Sabrina could only think about the red carpet welcome The Big News Houses would give her if she exposed this breaking news to them about The Mafia King 'Velenoso.' "Can you show me the pictures, Asher. I want to know everything about him."Asher grinned. He knew this trick would work on her. This girl was a hardcore career-oriented. He asked one of his men to take s
Bella sighed deeply as she put her head on Aaron's naked shoulder and draped her hand around his stomach after the mind-blowing orgasm. She nudged closer to him, He kissed her hair while caressing her naked shoulders with his thumb. Bella was enjoying the sweet silence in the arms of her husband but suddenly, her eyes went to his swollen palm and her lips thinned. "It's still not healed properly," she commented, holding his palm in her hand. She was bandaging it twice a day for the last five days but the wound was still raw. She doubted if He secretly peeled off the bandage or what. Aaron eyed the wound with proudness. "It will heal, don't worry about it." He whispered as He once again kissed her shoulder. Bella turned in his arms and looked at him with sharp eyes. "It will heal but I don't like seeing it every day. I could only think how much blood you must have lost and the pain you have felt while cutting your hand!"At that Aaron chuckled. Naive girl, this was just a scratch in h
After Twenty years—"Taking back New York City?" Mikhail looked at his Pakhan questionably. He was surprised at the sudden demand of his boss. "But Velenoso rules over it, Pakhan."A pair of ocean-blue eyes stared at Mikhail. He blinked leisurely at Mikhail and smirked."Russians used to rule over it once. Now I want New York back under Bratva again. Velenoso has ruled over it enough, now I want my city back, Mikhail." He stated with authority in his tone and rage in his eyes.Mikhail swallowed the thickness in his throat. "It wouldn't be easy to take it back from him. He is committed to his Cosa Nostra and for this, He even killed your uncle years ago!""It's a bloody revenge, Mikhail. He snatched my uncle, my father's beloved brother from him. So it's only fair if I snatch something dear to him.”He stood up from his chair and walked to the huge glass window before looking at the dark sky with considerable vicious thoughts running in his mind. "Who does He love the most?" He asked
Bella turned around, shielding her daughter from the bullet. She shrieked when the gunshots sounded. She waited for the pain but she felt nothing. The bullet hit the wall beside her. But then the more bullets kept showering, she heard screams and curses, the loud voice of bullets made Aira's cries grow louder and louder. She didn't turn around and kept praying to Mother Mary to protect her daughter even at the cost of her life.Cara shrieked in horror when the bullet went through Killian's arm instead of hitting Bella. Killian cursed loudly as pain shot through his nerves, the gun fell down from his hand. The bullets kept showering and before he could even blink another bullet hit him in the shoulder. "Fuck!" He cursed, crouching down. His men shot back and tried to protect Killian but they all fell one by one as the bullets never stopped showering from all sides. He looked at Cara who stood there numb. "You bitch, do something!" Cara looked at the gun before her. She snarled once
"Aria! Sabby!" Bella woke up with the nightmare. She looked around to find her daughter and sister but was shocked to find herself in the bed alone. Asher moved to her immediately. "Bella, you need to calm down, the doctor said you got unconscious because of stress." He said holding a glass of water for her. Bella looked at him with teary eyes. "They took Sabby and Aria." Asher controlled his emotions and nodded. "I know. Eldy left to bring them back. He found out about the person behind the attack."Bella's eyes sparkled in hope. "He did? Who kidnapped them!" She demanded.Asher sighed. "Riccardo."Bella was stunned. "Your uncle?""Yes. We all are shocked but you don't have to worry. Eldy will come back soon with Aria and Sabrina. Trust Eldy. He will make everything fine."Bella looked at him for a long time before nodding at him. "I do."Asher smiled. "Don't worry, let me bring you a cup of coffee. You will feel good after it.""No, I don't…""Have it. You will feel good," he sai
"What do you mean they took them, Eldy?" Asher asked his brother who was staring at the dark sky. Asher came running to Aaron's penthouse the moment he got to know about the attack on Sabrina and Bella. The doctor came just after him to check on Bella. He wanted to see Sabrina but his brother was not answering him. "I am asking something Eldy! Where is Sabrina?”Asher yelled at his brother in anger. "They took them both!" Aaron snapped, turning around and facing his brother. "They took Aria and Sabrina!!" He yelled back, his cold grey eyes were screaming in anger too.Asher stiffened. "Aria?" Aaron squeezed his eyes. For the second time in his life, He felt dread. The first time was when Maria died. "They have my daughter. I felt like a fucking failure for not being able to protect her and my family. She trusted me and I…What if something happened to Aria or Sabrina. Bella will never forgive me. Hell! I will not be able to forgive myself."Asher walked to his brother and rested his
Aria started crying too when she saw Sabrina crying. "Sabby…." Bella tried to soothe her daughter but she kept crying and stretched her arms to go to Sabrina.Bella felt bad for not being able to calm her sister or daughter's cries. "Sabby. Please stop crying. You don't have to feel like this," she caressed her sister's arms while bouncing Aria in her other arm."Okay, tell me. Do you still have feelings for him?" Bella asked her sister. Sabrina swallowed and wiped her tears, averting her eyes and looking in another direction. She felt stupid for crying over Asher like this. She sighed and forced herself to control her raging emotions. "Sabrina?" Bella whispered but Aria was still crying so she turned her attention to her daughter. "Please stop crying, Ari." She begged her daughter. Sabrina squeezed her eyes and forced a smile onto her face before taking Aria from Bella."Sabby is not crying anymore. You should also stop crying, choco pie." Aria blinked innocently, her lips stretch
"You wanted to talk?" Asher asked Sabrina when she was patting Aria to sleep. She raised her eyes and nodded. This was the time for her to take her revenge. "Yes," she said, "I wanted to talk to you."Asher smiled at his niece and touched her small fingers before meeting Sabrina's eyes. "I am listening." He said, his eyes gleaming as he looked at her. "I am ready to be with you again but you have to prove your love for me, Asher."Asher beamed. "I am ready to give up on my life for you, Sabrina. Tell me what can I do to prove my love for you?"Sabrina nodded. "Give up on your brother and come with me. Leave your brother and quit this crime world. I don't want you to meet your brother again. So tell me, Asher Knight, are you ready to leave your brother for me?"Asher was stunned. Did he hear her right? She was not asking him to leave his Eldy forever, right?“Sabrina. I love you, you know that. My feelings are real for you. Yes, I was wrong two years ago but now I have changed. I am t
Giovanni held his gaze. "Ethan proved his worth. He had both brains and power. You had power but the decision you took against Russia on your first mission cost me both men and money, Riccardo. Ethan saved you."Riccardo shrugged again. "He was my captain. It was his duty to save me.""Yes But you lost your face, Riccardo. Ethan was the only one who proved himself against the Russians."Riccardo chuckled. "And you found the perfect man for your daughter. You know what hurts me the most, Gio?" He said, fixing him with a look. Giovanni sighed. "So today you are going to get this all out. Years of pent-up anger against me.""Years of pent-up pain and hurt. You may call it anything you want. I married Lucia because you wanted it. It was Cosa Nostra's tradition that if you want to become the Capo, you must marry An Italian woman. You made that rule, didn't you?""I did because that's what other seniors wanted. Cosa Nostra runs on rules.""The same rules you forgot when you made Ethan Cap
"Where are you going, Madam?" Marcus asked Sabrina when she was about to enter the elevator with Aria in her hands. "To the park downstairs. Aria and I need fresh air."Marcus shook his head. "I am sorry, Madam but you can't go out. Please get back inside."Sabrina made a face. She was grounded in the house for more than a week without getting outside air. “Why? Do I need a permission letter to walk in the park now!" She snapped at Marcus. "Yes, you do. I am under strict orders from my Capo. If you want something, you can tell me. I will bring it for you but you are not allowed to go out. It's not safe."Sabrina thinned her lips and glared at him before going back into the penthouse. She was angry at her sister for accepting that criminal back in her life. She wanted to run away again with Bella and Aria but knew that now it was almost next to impossible because her sister will never leave Aaron again. Not after knowing that He was her saviour all along. She was shocked too when Be
Cara closed her eyes in pain as Lucia slapped her hard against the cheek. "You whore! My son died because of you. You are a bad omen for my family.""She lost her child. Stop tormenting her, Lucia." Riccardo snapped and took her out of the room. "You forced me to come here. I wanted to be with my son. He will be buried in a few hours. Why didn't she die instead of him?" Lucia snapped at Riccardo and snatched her arm from his hold in anger. Riccardo gritted his jaws, anger shooting through his nerves. "You are right. I shouldn't have come here with you. It's better if she stays here alone. She has already suffered enough.""She can die for all I care!" She snapped and walked away from there holding her son's memories in her heart. Riccardo sighed and stopped the nurse who was about to enter Cara's room. "Do you want anything, Sir?" The nurse asked him.Riccardo nodded. "Yes. I want you to take care of my daughter-in-law. I am leaving for my son's funeral. Take care of her." He said
