ADONIS Daughter. I didn’t want to believe it. She could’ve been lying. I hadn’t bothered to learn Leona’s name, which was the reason I doubted her even more. Orazio leaned into my ears and whispered, “I don’t have information on anyone named Alessia.” “What proof do you have that you have a daugh
“I already have soldiers following her every step, no matter where she goes,” Dom said and followed me toward the edge of the stairs. The woman had been minding each of my steps, movements, and even the words I uttered with great detail. There was a hint of turmoil in her eyes, as if she was trying
ADONIS “Did you hear correctly?” I asked Julian on the phone. “Yes, Capo.” Julian sounded quite certain. “They informed that a black car picked her up, and they lost sight of it inside a tunnel.” “Fuck,” I gritted. “Gather every possible soldier you can and swarm every likely place a Mafia busine
“Both. Both of them.” “They’re not your people, Rossi. They’re under my jurisdiction now, and I will not be surrendering them to you.” If he had signed the alliance when he had the time, there would’ve been some room for negotiation, but he hadn’t. His nostrils flared. “That wasn’t a request.” I
He didn’t respond and only glared at me, but something in his eyes shifted. “How about we both have our turns? I wouldn’t dare miss out on that fun.” “What’s in it for you?” He snorted. “He's about to find out what happens when one messes with a Rossi. Also, I need a few men to catch that motherfu
BELLA I followed Ciro into a warehouse at Hoboken Port, approximately an hour away from Brooklyn. My heart was thundering and could come out any minute. I didn’t know what was awaiting me. I could kill Elias. But I needed answers first. I wanted to know if my sister had any true fault in it. Ther
Gritting his teeth, he muttered, “Backup’s on its way. Pretend you don’t know me until then. I will kill you if you move again.” The latter he blurted loudly for Elias to hear. “I didn’t kill her. She begged for it. I freed her.” Elias’s words made my head snap toward him, and my frown deepened. Fr
I discovered during the police investigation that she had been working for a strip club where she had been the most in demand for a private dance. I shut my eyes. We needed money, but Mamma had promised to look for a way. Zia didn’t have to do it. “I may be a bastard, but I’m not the one who treate
“I should’ve killed that kid when I caught hold of Durant. That fucking bastard! Even his son isn’t any less,” Julian groaned. “He’s just a kid,” I murmured under my breath. That was what I believed. Aleksandr was a kid whose father had done terrible things and got taken away from him. He could no
BELLA Checking up on Fabi and Mamma one last time, I headed downstairs. The events had shaken everyone today. I knew I had nothing to reassure them with, not until Adonis and Matteo were back. Dante and Julian, the enforcer, were on the couch, faces smeared with tension. Julian’s phone buzzed, and
“Bombs,” someone yelled out. We lowered ourselves under the table while Adonis and his men pulled their guns out. Many men and women rushed toward the exit, trying to save their lives. I pulled Alessia closer to me and Mamma let out a heavy gasp and peeked her head out from under the table. “Don’t
“He had huge muscles and there were tattoos on his hands.” He pointed at the back of his hand. “He looked scary.” I couldn’t help but laugh at the look on his face. So pure and innocent. “You have nothing to fear,” I assured him and he stepped out of the room. “You’re the new bride.” “I am.” Ther
BELLA The outdoor reception was Ros’s idea. She loved the sight of string lights and candles, decorating almost every part of the bamboo ceiling and poles, giving the venue a light yellow touch amidst all the whites and blues. The only part I hated was that she wasn’t here to bear through the eveni
“You taste,” I scraped my teeth just below her clit and she moaned loudly, “so fucking delicious.”***BELLAOh, God! This was too much. I was riding his face, desperate to match the movements of his tongue. I wanted to hide my face in a blanket, worried about how this overwhelming need looked on me
“So hot.”There was a mix of lust, hunger and desperation in her eyes that sent blood rushing all the way to my cock strained against the harsh materials of my briefs. I pushed my hand underneath the waistband of her panties, down the mound of her sex covered in a small scruff and held her in a tigh
ADONISHelena made her way to her daughter, pulled her aside and said something to her, which made both of them laugh. They exchanged a hug and then Bella’s eyes were on me. She gave a little jerk, asking me why I was looking at her. Only if I could tell her why. She was the most beautiful woman to
I released her hand, cupped her cheeks and pressed my lips on hers, making sure everyone saw who she belonged to, who had her for the life ahead, and who would protect her if they ever thought of hurting her. I would always be there with her. As her husband. As her protector. As everything she dese
