You Can Run But... Power Struggle
He expected the slumping, and that told him that whoever she was, she either knew who he was or was just scared of Matteo shooting a gun close to her body."You know her?" Matteo was now pulling closer to him, his gun at his sides.Zayne shot him a look. "How the hell should I know her? Like we just fucking saw her here!""Calm down; I thought it was one of the girls you knew, Devil."He shook his head and turned back to the body. He bent down to her, the torch on her face, the tip of his fingers trailing from her cheeks to her chin. Even out in the cold, she still sweated profusely. Her auburn hair looked scattered, and there was blood matted to one side of her head, scratches on her face, and trails of blood on her pretty pink lips.He swallowed, his eyes trailing down her neck.She was beautiful—not more beautiful than the women he had been with, but there was something about her."Dude, this place is fucking hot; what the hell are you doing there watching her face?!" Matteo pulled

"The patient had taken a terrible fall, and looking at the bruises and slight fractures; she seemed to have rolled down a rocky hill, or in a house, down the stairs."Gia could only stare at the doctor's mouth, her white coat still on; she was the first person she had seen when she opened her eyes, and the second was the tall guy with the softest eyes she had ever seen.Even though his voice didn't match those eyes, Gia knew she'd have been calm with him if he hadn't shot at her.Not until she heard the doctor say..."Don Zayne seemed interested in her, a friend of his?" The man shook his head, his eyes still on her unfocused pupils, trying to take in the room she was in."The Devil of Rome wouldn't mind adding her to his collection, though." There was a small smile at the side of his lips.She would have been offended if her ears didn't ring from what he had just said, "DEVIL OF ROME!" No, it couldn't be,Or so she thought.Axel had sent her parents' bodies to the Mafia, and she had

GIA'S POVDo you want to know what's worse than death? Being sheltered by death, For not only did it come with death, But also the fear constantly eating you up.No. Nothing had happened; after all, it had just been one night, and that night I bawled my eyes out, crying for my family, who were murdered by the last person they had expected.Axel. His name left bitterness on my tongue. How could he? after everything father did for him, taking him in as family after a raid by the then-Don Derinem and Don Damon?He was taken during one of the missions they were sent on, and after refusing to disclose the whereabouts of the cartels, they had him killed.Nathan told me that he had left for school one day, and when he came back, he met a boy about his age sitting on father's seat, and he almost had him beaten up when father introduced him as his brother. He also said he had never been so shocked in his life.Father doted so much on Axel, and they sometimes got people confused about whether N

Authors POVHe has seen those eyes before; he could swear on it. Soft blue, the color of a calm sea, they watched his every mood change, fearful and stunned. Behind that fear was calculation.Or maybe he was just overthinking it. the Mafia's security forces having him suspect every damn thing, including a girl in a white towel who had lost her memory.He pushed back, his right-hand flexing when he raked his fingers through his hair. "Trust me, Contessa," he said, shaking his head slowly as if regretfully, "You aren't my type. You shouldn't fear.He saw a little anger in her eyes, and when he turned his hard gaze on hers, she immediately melted.He pointed to the bed and said, "Do not wear whatever that is outside of your room; there are men out here. It won't be my fault if they don't control themselves."The blood was working its way around her body again."And Contessa?' He turned, saying, "No more words about you leaving the manor. The search for who your parents are has already sta

She ran into the room, shutting the door behind her. She searched the lock, turning in the keys, then moving backward as if the door were one big monster she didn't want to touch.Except that it was going to bring in a monster in a few minutes.What was he doing to the man? Had he told Don he caught her trying to break through the padlocks, would he come for her after he was done with her assaulter?If she'd known, she wouldn't have fought; she would have stayed and gotten it done, then gone back as if nothing had happened.She made the mistake of looking out the window again, blinking when she saw two other soldiers holding a wounded man in between them, seeing Don behind them, watching with the same rage on his face. Gia pulled back.Her heartbeat was thudding loudly against her ears, and she clutched her chest to keep it calm.A furious knock on her door had her straightening in a heartbeat. There was no way he was in front of her door in just how many seconds?"Contessa," the cool

Zayne's POV.I wasn't supposed to be here, driving her downtown to get new outfits, but then here we were, and she had her face out the window, her Auburn splashing in all directions. Good thing I had my glasses on, for right now I was being a creep.She smiled at me, and though I didn't smile back, I had this tug in my chest; it felt like I was dripping down like goo.She was a whole lot more character than she was the night before, though I hadn't told her anything because she didn't remember anything that went on.I wonder how mad she'd go if I told her she had asked me if I'd kiss her.The lust was a mutual thing, then. The liquor had helped her spill, and getting her drunk again had its appeal. Too bad. I made that bet.I looked toward her again, and this time she had her hands out of the window, her eyes closed, loving the feel of the breeze on her fingers.She looked shocked when I told her we were going to get her clothes, and even more shocked when I borrowed her one of my po

Author POV "How did you find out?" Zayne clenched his fists against his side. "Happened that today I was ready to kill; didn't take his soldier time to start talking, but that was the only thing he was saying, nothing else," Matteo answered me. "Why do I feel like you are hiding something?" Zayne's jaws were beginning to work up. Matteo knew how much he hated being kept in the dark. Matteo noticed the tone immediately: "Are you done with her?" Zayne turned to the boutique to see her and Nora coming out of it with countless bags in their hands; she was now in jean trousers and a white shirt, one of the clothes she had chosen. "Yeah, we are; I'll be there in an hour," He felt her behind him. ******** "I'll be there in an hour," she heard him say, and she stopped, standing behind him, wondering whom he was talking to, and with the tension on his shoulders, she wasn't so sure it was good. He turned to look at her, sizing her up, and that got her mesmerized by how his eyes changed

She felt like throwing up looking at a face hell-bent on destroying her; even without knowing her secret, she wondered what would happen now that he knew who she was."For someone who lies so much, you really have a way of showing your feelings on that face." Matteo dug his hands into his pocket. "You dance very well too; your father had to hide the fact that he had another daughter."That was his only restraint from pulling her by the hair—a cartel in the manor, who the hell ever heard of that?"What's your aim, Gia? Why are you here, all around the Don?"She shook her head in fear as it began to eat up her voice box. "It's not what you think, I swear to you...""Your father stooped so low sending his last daughter....""No, my father didn't send me," another of these damn tears was pouring from her face, "my father is dead.""More lies?""No damnit!" Sobbing profusely, what did she have to lose? Capo Bastone already knew that in a few minutes Zayne would be walking through that door

You Can Run But... pheww (2)
Heyyyyyyyyy I'm pretty glad I'm done with those two. I'm hurting too. Being the Don's Obsession is finished now as the second book in the series, "Angels for the Demons." Gianna Venditti and Zayne Xavier, this has to be the easiest book I've ever written, all thanks to you all for taking out time to comment and bug me. Lol, I love that too.Mint Mocha, you deserve a special chapter. I think I hurt you the most. Lol.To be clear, there were few terms Zayne used that weren't understood, like when he said, "I can't get enough blues in my life." Well, that's about their eyes. Gianna has blue eyes, the same as Jane.The Nico book is in the works, and I'm still not sure when it's coming out yet, but keep your fingers crossed, for that will also be a wery bumpy wide.I can't give out the name yet, maybe because I haven't settled on any, and that's the hardest part.Sorry for the grammatical errors; I'll work on that.Once again, thank you for the gems, the stars, the comments, and even the
You Can Run But... Bit uh sweetness
Gianna blinked, facing the immaculate white walls and the beeping that sounded far away. Unable to feel her body, she decided she was in heaven.Only heaven could feel this painless; only heaven could feel this safe, well, heaven and Zayne's presence, but since he wasn't in sight, maybe she was in heaven.She waited for the angels to take her into paradise, wipe the tears from her eyes, and tell her she would be okay, that the earth was never her place anyway, that she'd fallen.The image of Axel holding the sledgehammer with a sick smile while watching her scream in agony had tears filling her eyes. She was never meant for this brutal and sinful world anyway.She wondered if Zayne would find her dead body. She wanted to cry out for him, tell him she was sorry she had gone off track, and cry that she didn't deserve him, but it was too late; she was dead.Or was she..."I had a feeling you'd open those eyes today." She turned to see him sitting on a chair beside her bed, looking into h
You Can Run But... Touch of death
He drove hard, he went fast, his wet cloth clung to his body as he cursed at the car for not moving more quickly than it was doing, and he slammed hard on the steering wheel, flying past the few trucks on the way."Gia..." He whispered in the car, one hand dragging his hair back, Axel's voice ringing.'Run, Zayne, or not; either way, she won't make it.'Cartel's quarters, he breathed hard. The last time he had gone there was the first time their paths had crossed, and now it seemed it would be their last.He pushed off the negative thought. He had to think positively; he fucking had to think positively, but knowing Axel and his anger toward her, he hoped he didn't get there too late.He was alone on the road, in the dark stormy night, with lightning striking and thunder rumbling, and all he could think of was how scared she would be, how wounded, how dead. He swallowed."Goddamn you, Axel!" He gritted his teeth and groaned and swore that if Axel touched a hair on her body, he'd make s
You Can Run But... Little revenge
She struggled to open her eyes, but each time she did and the bulb overhead hit her, her head ached so badly she had to shut it again; she felt like she was running in a maze of blurs."She's coming awake," she heard the voice, and she snapped her eyes wide open, coming face to face with Axel, who was sitting opposite her. When her eyes met him, he smiled.The thud of her heartbeat was loud now as she quickly looked around for a place of escape."Welcome home, Bonbon," Axel laughed. "I told you we'd meet again, didn't I? Heard Zayne fuck another pussy?" He settled back on the pink couch and asked, "Is that why you went running?"Her color drained when she saw she was back at the cartels' mansion in her room, tied up on a wooden chair while he sat on her pink couch, staring at her in the face with a psychotic smile on his lips.He raised her phone, "Amara has been calling; she says she's sorry, and why are you not in her apartment?" He snapped his fingers in front of her face, "Gianna,
You Can Run But... Little hurt
The next seven days had her stuck in her room, glaring at the window time and again, her eyes falling to her ring wrapped around her fingers, reminding her of the hurt.She cried until she couldn't cry anymore, clutching at her chest, wanting to rip out the damn organ, refusing to heed that it was only needed to get blood out.When she wasn't by the mirror, she was curled up on the bed, listening to her stomach groan in protest at being the one carrying the load of her heart.The manor had gone quiet, and day in and day out, she could feel him by her locked door, pleading for her to open up and let him in so they could sort things out.But she wasn't ready to decide what she was to do yet.He'd pounded on the door forcefully the first day, yelling at her to understand and listen to his explanations: "Gianna, I didn't do it; I'd never do it. Gianna, I detest that you don't believe I'd never hurt you! Gianna!!"That wasn't it; she had considered it and concluded that he was speaking the
You Can Run But... Chaos
Author's POV. He had a hand stuck in his hair, pushing back while glaring at the smirk on her face. Alexa looked so proud of herself, and Gia couldn't stop staring; she was frozen."So darling," Alexa whispered, and he could see Gia wince. "Now that she knows I'm three months pregnant, what will we do about it? It's a boy, your flesh, and.....""Shut your mouth," he snapped at her, then walked over to Gia, holding her shoulders, "Gia, I should have told you; I wanted to; listen, it's not what you think, I swear."She struggled to open her lips and get a word out, but she was stuck. Alexa appeared pregnant, so it was apparent she wasn't lying about that one, and that confidence on her face was beginning to scare her."Did you..." Gia started, but then she swallowed, hating how shaky her voice sounded, and asked, "Did you sleep with her?"He shook his head, "It's not that sim...""Oh liar," Alexa rolled her eyes, coming closer, "he fucked me, Gia, like an animal. You can get your bag
You Can Run But... Perfect chaos (2)
GIA'S POV.He had his back towards me, his tensed shoulders visible with the singlet he wore, his hand gripping the phone as he gritted into it, and he grabbed the chair before him."No," I could sense his irritation, "I thought we agreed on keeping things clear; what the fuck do you want now?"When he had that tone on, it worried me, for slowly, he began to withdraw into himself, and it took a ton to get him out. Whatever it was that was behind that phone had a hold on him.Most of what was said lacked content; they repeated the exact words, and this was the third time he picked up the phone.I encircled my hand around his waist, placing my cheek on his back, sighing when I felt him loosen up; sometimes, this was the only comfort he needed.He slammed the phone back on its hold, glaring down at it, but soon it was ringing again.I held his palm before he grabbed it, and he looked into my face.I raised a brow, "who's that?"He narrowed his eyes to the wall, but I brought it back on my
You Can Run But... Perfect chaos
2 MONTHS LATER..."I don't want a dress!" Jane stomped her foot on the ground, glaring at the blue ball gown Gia held in front of her like it was mold. "I want a suit like Zayne."Gia inhaled deeply, glaring at the top of the girl's head, unsure of what to do next, for she had tried everything, including threats of no dessert or no more outing, but Jane retained her stand.All thanks to Zayne, she breathed fire, spoiling the girl rotten and always giving her what she wanted when she wanted it, and Jane, knowing she had him wrapped around her fingers, also knew there were no limitations to what he could do for her."Why didn't you tell me all this when you watched me pick this out for you?" Gia had a stern look on her face.And that had Jane melting, with fake tears filling her eyes.Gia groaned, looking at the clock on the wall above the door; just an hour remained, and she was still in her robe, her hair still curled in rolls, with no sign of beginning her preparations before the banq
You Can Run But... Owning him
A week later and the room had him most of the hours of the day.Shame Guilt When he appeared to have everything in order, Sins called out and reminded him how much he didn't deserve Gianna.He tried to tell her several times what had happened that night when he believed she was gone. Tried to tell her when he held her hand during a walk on the beach with Jane in front of them...But then, losing her again wasn't what he wanted. He'd never been so afraid; he had never been so threatened.Alexa had called him two days after that night, and he could hear Nico's voice in the background; the call was filled with whispers and secrets."Don't get worked up, Zayne," she'd laughed over the phone, "that night was all I wanted; I promise not to tell anyone.""Your words don't mean sh*t, Alexa.""It hurts; that is all you can say after the best night of my life," she sighed. "Besides, I'm ready to let you go; you won't see me anymore; it's your fucking loss."That was the last he heard from her
