Palermo is a feared Mafia boss, commanding respect throughout the criminal underworld. He's a strikingly handsome and heavily tattooed man who exudes charisma, leaving women enraptured. As a wealthy and ruthless leader of the Mafia, he's unflinchingly willing to take lives. He's a figure who cares not for the concept of sin, but even he couldn't believe he'd fall in love at first sight with a woman he had only just laid eyes on. She was stunningly beautiful, and in his eyes, Ysabel was the only woman who truly held his attention. She was the first woman he wished to protect and cherish, and he never anticipated developing an interest in her, an interest that compelled him to know her, to draw close to her, and to become a part of her life. However, it was beyond belief that in the midst of violence, near-death experiences, and imminent peril, he found and came to know the captivating Ysabel. To his surprise, she even managed to steal his heart. It may sound peculiar and humorous, doesn't it? He was on the brink of death, yet he still managed to fall in love at first sight with this woman of extraordinary beauty whom he had just met. But he is Palermo Lazarus, a Mafia leader who would stop at nothing to possess and claim the woman who had entranced him and breathed life into a heart he once believed was as cold as stone. He became possessively infatuated with her and was resolute in making her his own.
View MoreI'm at the supermarket, craving some fruit. As I stand in front of the apple stall, ready to make a selection, a feminine hand catches my attention. I hesitated and withdrew my hand, turning away when she spoke. "Are you Zack's ex or something?" Her question stops me in my tracks. It's her, the girl I saw in the parking lot when Zack proposed. She's the one. There's a certain ethereal quality about her; her fair skin and beauty make me feel slightly inadequate. It's no wonder Zack chose her over us. "Hello?" I meet her gaze and then glance away. "I need to go," I mumble and start walking. She seems persistent, following me. "Hey, wait," she says, grabbing my arm. She's so beautiful; her accent is American. I feel like pinching her. "I'm asking you," she continues. "Yes is my answer. If you don't mind, I need to leave. I don't want any trouble with you. We're over, and I'm not desperate to win him back from you. I've seen enough. He chose you, and you're going to be his wife. I'm
Zary POV (Zack's Twin Brother):I observed my brother, who was currently downing shots of tequila. How many bottles had he consumed? Six? Somehow, he managed to be such a fool. I walked into Lica's room, my cousin who had recently returned from the States."Lica, what's the latest?" I settled onto his bed as he glanced at me briefly before returning to his task. Lica was a fashion designer and always seemed busy."It's functional, but I doubt your twin can handle his part," I sighed deeply."You can't entirely blame him, Lica. After all, they nearly lost the baby," I commented, somewhat irritated. He stood up, facing me."Listen, dear cousin. Do you truly believe I'm the one responsible for this idea? Is that what you think?" I met his gaze, then stood up."Just keep it brief. I don't want to witness my brother self-destructing over such matters," I left his room and turned back to my twin."Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! It's all my fault," he exclaimed, hurling a glass to the floor."ZA
It had been a full week, an entire week of his consistent indifference towards me. He had ceased bringing other women home, though he was now returning in the early hours of the morning. Here I was, in the role of his caretaker, a role I had surprisingly grown accustomed to. During one of my cleaning sessions in his room while he occupied the bathroom, something tumbled out from his coat. It rolled, catching my attention. Retrieving it, I swiftly returned the coat to its place, just as he emerged from the bathroom, unfazed by his undressing before me. After he left, I perched on the edge of the bed and examined the object closely. A small box revealed a plain silver gold white ring. Cradling it in my hand, I realized it fit perfectly. A fleeting smile graced my lips, but it quickly faded, replaced by unease as I glanced at my hand. "Who is he planning to propose to?" A pang of emotions tightened within me. We hadn't even reached the stage of discussing a proposal, making such a notio
I woke up disoriented, finding myself still in the place where I had lost consciousness earlier. Clutching my stomach, I reassured myself that I was alright. My slumber had been a result of my tears, and I reminded myself to take my vitamins. After consuming some bread and milk, I returned to the room, eyes shut tight. Gazing at Zack's side of the bed, I tenderly caressed his pillow, eventually lying down, embracing it, and shedding silent tears.Abruptly awakened, a tapping sensation on my face jolted me. My initial smile faded as I opened my eyes, only to be met by the sight of a woman dressed in nothing but a bra and panties. Confusion set in until Zack emerged from the bathroom. Hastily standing up, I moved toward him, my gaze ignoring the woman's presence."Babe, you're back!" I exclaimed, wrapping my arms around Zack's topless form. My anticipation was swiftly crushed as he gently pushed me away."Could you leave the room? We have other plans," he uttered with cold detachment. G
I woke up feeling hungry, which motivated me to get out of bed. However, I quickly realized that Zack wasn't next to me. Looking around, I noticed that it was already 6 in the morning. I thought Zack might have left for work, although he usually said goodbye before going. Lost in my thoughts, I got up, put on my robe, and left the room. Yet, Zack wasn't in sight. I headed straight to the kitchen to make some milk, but I felt restless. I really wanted to see Zack. I sat down in the dining room, and the phone started ringing repeatedly. I grabbed the cordless phone.I was at a loss for words."Hello?" I tried to speak, but nothing came out."Good day, sir. We regret to inform you that we've canceled all the arrangements for your wedding. We hope you might reconsider. Ma'am Monic doesn't know about this yet, but we plan to explain everything soon. Have a good day, sir. Thank you." I was completely shocked by what I heard.What?The wedding plans were canceled?I thought about it, remembe
While our lips were locked in a kiss, I couldn't help but moan from the pleasure of the sensations coursing through me. His gentle strokes against my skin were intoxicating, each touch sending shivers down my spine. He skillfully rubbed my face as our mouths explored each other. His skilled tongue danced with mine, causing me to moan even more. He gradually lifted my maternity dress without breaking our passionate kiss. The sudden exposure made me shiver as I felt the cool air against my bare skin.He removed my bra with deliberate care, his hand then descending to explore between my legs. A moan escaped my lips as he delved into my intimate area. I grabbed his neck, finding support in his strong embrace."Mhmm," I murmured, lost in the sensation. His skillful fingers caressed my cl!tor!s, sending waves of pleasure through me. I could feel the heat building up within me, my body responding eagerly."Ahhhh, babe~~" Zack's touch caused me to tremble with pleasure. He continued to touch
"We arrived home, but I kept looking at Zack. Partly because I wasn't satisfied with his explanation."Stop staring at me as if I'm a criminal," he said, annoyed. I looked away and continued eating my apple."Hey, are you going to believe me or not?""I don't know," was all I said. He surprised me by suddenly swooping me up bridal style."Hey, put me down.""Later," he smirked."You're quite eager," I retorted. He simply smiled and kissed my forehead. As he carried me to our room, he gently set me on the bed and knelt down."Monic," I met his gaze."What is it?" He smiled at me."I'm sorry." I kept my gaze on him, waiting for his next words."Monic, I apologize for everything I've put you through. If only I hadn't trusted Monica, or rather Rose, so readily, we might not have had these problems. I hope we can find happiness. I know our beginning was rocky, and I made you cover up for someone you aren't. But you're truly what I was looking for. My love for you blinded me, Monic. No matt
"I'm waiting for her; I mean, I really want to know why she cheated on Zack. I looked outside the restaurant through the glass window and saw him getting out of the car. He was talking to someone for a while, then he glanced at me and I nodded, receiving the same in return. After a while, he walked over and took a seat in front of me."What do you want, Monique?" I looked at him first."Order first," was all I told him."Waiter," he called the waiter."Yes, ma'am, what's your order?""I want a mocha coffee, that's all.""Okay, ma'am," the waiter left, and he turned his attention back to me."So?" he said, and I took a deep breath."Why did you cheat on him?" Rose laughed slightly, so I frowned."Monic! Zack is attractive, wealthy, and skilled in bed," I clenched my fist in annoyance at his words.He looked me up and down, "You thought we lived as husband and wife for five years. Those five years with him were passionate and easy-going. He was my first; he was the first one to experien
"When the urge took over and disrupted your plans, I looked at Zack, but he just laughed."Hey, it's something we both desired.""Yes, I know, but you're aware that I'm leaving. Look, it's late," I said, feeling drained after sleeping all day."Tell me, where are you really going?" he asked, handing me a glass of milk."Kay Rose," I replied."Kay Rose?" he questioned, his brow furrowing."Why?""I just want to know, Zack. Why did she do that? Why did she cheat on you?" He smiled and then stood up. I followed his gaze while sipping my drink. He took an envelope from his bag and walked over to me."What is that?" I inquired. He handed it to me, and as I peered inside, I was taken aback by what I saw."Zack, how did this—""A setup, or let's just say she might have had a reason for her actions," he said, smiling."So, is this true? Are you really divorced?" He hugged me suddenly and kissed me passionately."Yes, baby," I smiled but pushed him away gently."What was her reason?""Why?""I
