UNDER LEO'S COMMAND (The De Castello Family #1) Visiting Him In A Safehouse.
ALESSANDRA Dante drove me blindfolded to a safe house, far from the De Castello mansion. I had no idea where he was taking me, but I wasn’t scared. He had let me keep my phone, knowing Mia would be frightened if she woke up and I wasn’t there.When we finally arrived, I stepped inside, scanning my surroundings for any clues about our location, but there were none. Leonardo was clearly smart enough to keep this place a well-guarded secret.Dante led me to the stairs. We walked silently, each of us lost in our own thoughts. His steps were quick and eager, revealing his desire to see his older brother.He finally stopped when we arrived in front of a room, door closed. He turned to me and said, “Wait here, I will go and find out what's going on first.”I slowly nodded, watching surprise flicker across his face. He didn't expect me to agree so easily to his request, but all I wanted was to confirm Leonardo's well being with my own eyes. After Dante entered the room, I leaned against the

ALESSANDRAThe entire room was filled with our labored breaths, our scents infused with sweat and lust as we movedagainst each other. My whole body threatened to combust under his touches and his words. When he captured my lips once again, I instantly melted into the kiss, chasing his mouth with mindless hunger. Leonardo chuckled against my lips, his eyes filled with amusement and happiness. He leaned back to study me, his gaze growing heated. He asked me, “Are you sure about this, Alessandra?”I knew this was his way of being considerate towards me but I didn't need it. His habit of undermining my efforts didn't sit well with me in this moment, so I rolled my hips wordlessly, pressing my core against him. “Ah!” Leonardo's breath hitched, throwing his head back to reveal his his tight neck cords. His hips buckled immediately, seeking more friction but I managed to retain control. His large hands gripped my thighs roughly as he rocked against me, trying to force me into submission.

LEONARDO In the middle of the night....I stood in the balcony, admiring the beautiful moon in the sky. A cigarette hung from my lips while I reflected over what happened between me and Alessandra. When she barged into the room earlier, her eyes filled with worry and tears, I was so fucking happy that I gotten such a fatal gunshot wound. We'd been fighting a lot since we got married, but this was the first time she apologized, willing to do anything to make things right. Her heart and body were so open that I couldn't resist, even if it meant getting burned.Now, she was back in my bed and my life. I had no intention of letting her escape again. She always claimed she didn’t care about what I did in my private time, but she couldn't stand seeing any woman near me. Deep down, she knew she owned me, whether she admitted it or not.But this ownership was also a two-way street. I grew hard again, thinking about how sweet her moans sounded in my ears like a fucking love song. Her body cr

LEONARDOThree days later, Keith finally gave his medical consent for me to resume work. Even though my subtle threats and aggressive demeanor had worked with him, there was still someone else who wasn't too happy to let me leave. “I still don't think you are ready, Leo,” Alessandra complained. These days, she had been very attentive and sweet towards me, refusing to leave my side. Although I was very happy seeing her new change towards me, she had become very vigilant in my affairs.I pulled her close, inhaling her sweet jasmine scent as color splashed across her cheeks. She was wearing one of my black shirts with nothing underneath, and she looked incredibly sexy. I still hadn't created a plan to seduce h again, but I had decided she would end up beneath me before I resumed work.“I have some unfinished business to take care of, babe,” I pressed my lips to her temple as she ran her hands over my torso. Alessandra seemed to like my body more than she cared to admit, something I ment

ALESSANDRA Despite my efforts to keep Leonardo away from his business, he still managed to escape after leaving me nearly brain-dead from his fucking. I grew hungry after such a rigorous exercise so I came down to eat. As I reached the stairs, I spotted Rocco speaking with the guards in the living room. The moment he saw me, he turned and hurried away.It felt satisfying to watch him flee, especially since I had forgotten to report his actions to Leonardo. My plans had vanished the moment I saw my husband injured and weak that day. I was so relieved when we finally saw each other, causing me to wave the white flag between us. The truth was, I still hated his job as the head of an entire mafia organization but the only difference was I didn't want anything to happen to him. Especially since my father was actively trying to kill him. Leonardo seemed determined to be follow through with his plan to carry out that secret trade, and my father was never going to let him succeed. I overh

ALESSANDRA I sat in the back passenger seat, checking my phone as we drove down the street. Spotting the gym around the corner, I knew we were getting close, so I texted Bianca again. My heart pounded in my ears as I anxiously waited for the distraction I needed, but it didn't come.Just as I was about to reach out to one of my father's people in the city, the car jolted, causing me to lurch forward. Once everyone recovered from the shock, one of the men, whom I assumed to be the leader, turned to check on me. “Ma’am, are you alright?”“Yes, I am,” I replied, my chest heaving. The men stepped out to examine the damage, and I smiled with relief as I watched them talking to the other driver.I quietly snuck through the back door and blended into the streets. This was not the first time I was doing it anyway, but it was something I swore I would never do again when my father pushed a man's teeth down his throat for taking me out on a movie date. But I was very good at this. I avoided a

ALESSANDRA It took Leonardo's men less than ten minutes to find me. All of them stormed into the boutique, dressed in black suits and gloves with labored breathing. As soon as he saw me, the leader approached me with sweat trinkling down his forehead. His voice went hard as he demanded, “We have been searching for you everywhere. Where did you go?”“I came here to shop since you were busy fighting those men who bumped your car,” I replied without looking at him. I shoved the shopping bags into his arms and warned, “And you’d better be careful what you tell my husband when we return. I mean it.”He remained silent as I strode past him and exited the boutique. During the ride, my mind was consumed with worry about the missing note. It was an important piece of evidence, something that could incriminate me and my sister if revealed to Leonardo.I was so lost in thought that I didn’t even notice when we arrived home. Maybe Bianca could help, I thought as the door beside me suddenly open

ALESSANDRA I didn't come down from dinner. Leonardo didn't come up to bed that night either. I stayed in my room until a maid waiting brought my food to me in the afternoon. It took some time for my mind to function properly after what happened between me and my husband. If anything was clear to me, it was that I couldn't stay here any longer with Leonardo. I had to find some information about that damn trade. When Dante came to visit again, I asked him for a favor. I told him, “Please let Mia pack some of my things from the mansion and bring it over.”“If there's anything you need, we can buy it for you,” Dante offered with a stiff expression. I sensed something bad had gone down between him and my sister and it made me happy. The sooner Mia realized the true colors of the De Castello men, the earlier she would be saved from agony and despair. I insisted, “There are some personal stuff I need right here with me. I have already spoken to Mia so she will give it all to you. Plea

UNDER LEO'S COMMAND (The De Castello Family #1) The Reason He Married Her.
LEONARDO After making the phone call, I got up from the bed and grabbed a packet of cigarettes and a lighter from the bedside table. I walked to the balcony to clear my thoughts and plan my next steps for handling some unfinished business. The night sky was starless, clouds covering half of the bright moon.I lit a cigarette in my mouth and took a long drag. The nicotine sent a heady rush to my brain, making me feel much light-headed than before. The throbbing headache began to fade away as I released a puff of smoke into the air. Giovanni, my dear stepbrother. I had to admit he had done a very good job hiding in the dark like a cockroach. But if he thought he could reap my pained efforts and take over my mafia organization, then he clearly had a death wish. Now that I have talked to Charles, one of my clients who worked in the city's administrative office, there was no way he was going to survive past the week. As the mayor's defense secretary, Charles had major connections with
UNDER LEO'S COMMAND (The De Castello Family #1) Leonardo's Finally Awake!
ALESSANDRA A week later...I ate breakfast and was reading a novel when I suddenly received a phone call from Rocco. Anxiety gripped my heart as I picked up the call and said. “Hello, Rocco.”“Leo has woken up, and he's been asking for you.” He announced. “I'll text you the address so you can come visit him immediately.”I shot up from my seat. “Really? I'm coming!”My heart pounded in my chest as I changed my clothes and rushed into the waiting car. When we finally arrived at the location Rocco sent us, I was already a bit dizzy from anticipation as I entered the house, ignoring the guards’ greetings. I just wanted to confirm it myself. I needed to see him with my two eyes and touch him with my fingers to convince myself that he was truly awake. After taking several turns in the large house, I finally found Isabella in the hallway. As I closed the distance between us with hurried steps, I called out to her. “Isabella, where's he?”Isabella pointed at the door near her with a smile
UNDER LEO'S COMMAND (The De Castello Family #1) Spilling The Truth To Dante.
ALESSANDRA By a few minutes before six in the morning, Henrietta finally emerged from Leonardo's room, wiping her hands with a white handkerchief. She and Cortez looked exhausted, though Cortez tried to hide it better than Henrietta.She yawned and said, “He's out of danger for now. But he still needs to be checked for any other internal injuries and broken bones.”I turned to Cortez. “Is there something you can do about this?”“I'll make some calls to find someone in the city to help us,” Cortez replied grimly. “But that means we'll have to move him if possible.”I suddenly understood why they had been beating around the bush when speaking to me. The thought of Leonardo not being nearby sent a cold shiver down my spine. I needed him close, and I couldn't trust anyone else right now. I didn't want him out of my sight until he regained consciousness.A undercurrent of tension and unspoken words passed between me and my enforcer as we stared at each other. Henrietta's eyes darted betwe

ALESSANDRA After what happened to Keith, Rocco and Cortez decided to conduct another identity check of every single person staying was in the private house. I stayed behind, personally watching over my unconscious husband alone while they carried out their operations.Although I had been very firm and strong on the surface when facing Keith, the truth was that I was extremely shaken by the extent of my Father's vicious plans. If I had arrived a second later, I would have surely lost Leonardo. So who could I trust now? Who exactly was my ally and my foe here?A knock on the door snapped me out of my thoughts. Since the knocks were light and gentle, I already had an idea who was the visitor was so I called out, “Come in.”Isabella poked her head in and said, “Cortez wanted me to tell you that he's going to personally fetch a doctor to treat Leonardo.”“Alright, thank you.” I replied. After carefully examining Leonardo's injuries, Rocco and I had come to the conclusion that his life w

ALESSANDRA When I finally arrived at the address Isabella sent me, I rushed into the house to see Rocco talking to Cortez. He leaned against the wall, one of his hands holding his abdomen while he chugged down large gulps of whiskey from the bottle. I approached them quickly and asked, "Where's Leonardo? I want to see him right now.”“He's now receiving treatment from Keith.” Cortez replied. With a single glance, he grew alarmed as he pulled me close. “Is something wrong? Were you attacked?”I shook my head. “Not me. But I think Leo's in danger.”Rocco frowned. “What do you mean?”I told them what my younger sister, Mia had told me. The expression on both their faces was not pleasant at all, but then Cortez finally said, “I have already tightened security around the place, but I'll do an extra round just to make sure no one sneaks into the place.”“I'm afraid that person is already in this building,” I snapped, running my hand in through my hair. My mind raced as I thought deeply ab
UNDER LEO'S COMMAND (The De Castello Family #1) Leonardo's In Danger!
ALESSANDRA I paced back and forth in the living room of my private residence that evening, waiting for some news from Rocco and the rest. As soon as Sofia gave me that address, we held a meeting as soon as I got home. Rocco folded his arms and stared at the note on the table. “How sure are you that this isn't some sort of trap? We can't afford to have them ambush us.”I smiled reassuringly. “That's why we have Cortez here.”“Yes,” My second mafia lieutenant confirmed, stepping forward. “I'll have a few police officers on standby for backup, so they don't have the upper hand over us.”“But that would actually leave us defenseless here.” Rocco protested. “Well, it's not like they know our new mafia headquarters, and I'll just hide here until you guys return, so don't worry about it.” I assured him. When there were no further objections, Rocco finally fell silent, so we were able to make a very meticulous plan to save Leonardo. That evening, I stayed at home with my phone glued to my
UNDER LEO'S COMMAND (The De Castello Family #1) You're Not The Only One Who Can Resort To Threats.
ALESSANDRA On the last day of the ultimatum, I sent word to Sofia to come for a meeting. Isabella and Rocco tried to convince me to wait until the ultimatum was over, but I just couldn't wait anymore. The previous night, I had a frightening nightmare that the couple had delivered Leonardo's corpse to me. That dream had scared the shit out of me that night, so I decided to take care of this mess once and for all. “What am I here, Alessandra?” Sofia questioned. Apparently, she wasn't pleased to be summoned on a Saturday because she had plans with Giovanni to go shopping. “Did you call us to give some good news about our agreement? Where's Dante?”“He's not here, and I didn't tell him anything about the deal you offered me.” I said. The couple's eager faces instantly dropped when they heard my words, but I didn't care. I came here for a mission, so I wasn't going to rest until I fulfilled it. Sofia slammed the table and fumed. “Then it means you are prepared to see your husband again
UNDER LEO'S COMMAND (The De Castello Family #1) Finding Sofia's Weakness.
ALESSANDRA After waiting for several days, Cortez finally returned with news about his investigation. According to him, Sofia was an orphan from the city of San Remo who snuck out the country illegally through a stowaway. She was then caught by a prostitute smuggling ring and worked for them for four years before she met Giovanni, who paid for her freedom. “Are you sure that's all you have about her?” I asked Cortez. A wave of desperation and helplessness gripped my heart when I discovered he had brought nothing useful like I'd hoped. Today was the second day after Giovanni had given us that ultimatum, but I still didn't have anything on him or his woman. The clock was ticking, and I feared Leonardo's life would soon be forfeited if I didn't do something. Cortez glanced away before nodding, “Yes, that's all I could find. You can ask somebody else to search if you'd like.”I observed him for a few more seconds, trying to see if I could actually trust him. After the little disagreem
UNDER LEO'S COMMAND (The De Castello Family #1) Everything In Life Needs A Balance.
ALESSANDRA Silence enveloped the room after my confession. Cortez didn't look as surprised as I would have imagined while Rocco's expression darkened as he tried to process what this revelation would mean for his friends. “Your father killed his brother?!” Isabella half-asked, half-screamed. I understood her reaction the most because I had struggled to live with the secret for years. In the mafia, everyone did anything they could for power and money. But there was one concept that was sacred to all, something that allowed them to preserve their last sense of humanity. Family. Both betrayal and murder of one's kin were frowned upon, and if someone dared to touch another's family, then that person was definitely prepared to go to hell and beyond that. That's why most grudges were always settled with a person's death. "I'm so sorry, Alessandra.” Isabella wrapped her arms around me as my vision blurred with tears. Rocking me gently, she added, “Now it makes sense why you didn't wan
