Prologue

𝐺 𝐴 𝐵 𝑅 𝐼 𝐸 𝐿 𝐿 𝐴I was afraid of showing my emotions.Afraid that they will take advantage of me so instead I turned my pain into power. I built a wall around myself, pushing away the people that tried to break through.I was young when I lost everything. People pitied me and I hated that.I showed them that I didn't want to be saved but deep down I knew I was lying to myself. I wanted to go somewhere and scream as loud as I could. I wanted to pull my heart out and burn it and be heartless.I was afraid of being destroyed by someone but what I didn't know was that, I was slowly destroying myself.People feared me and thought I had it all, I did but it wasn't enough.Everyone had someone to turn to during their darkest days. I had no one.All I ever wished for was for someone to put me in bed and stroke my hair telling me that everything will be okay. That I don't have to be strong all the time.I thought love was something that made you weak.I thought it was stupid.That is

Chapter 1

POV - GABRIELLA SANGRIENTO "Patetico." The man spat while he slowly paced around in circles, facing me with a smirk as I'm tied up."I'm surprised you're not giving up yet. Quite impressed." He stops in his tracks and pays full attention to me.Animosity crawled through me. I want him to pay for doing harsh things to innocent children.This prick has no idea that I purposely let him kidnap me.I'm Gabriella Sangriento, the most feared woman in Italy. Known as the Mafia queen and leader of the Leone d'Oro. It's not so easy to capture me. If the fucking police force can't do it why would a disgusting child molester easily capture me.Hilarious.Lorenzo has been torturing me into giving him information about the Furvus eques and even if I did have information about them why would I tell this bastard.I hate to admit this but I have no information about that gang.But this isn't any ordinary gang, we're dealing with the Furvus eques. My fucking rival and we've been competitors for almost

Chapter 2

POV - GIOVANNI CARSON "Kill him," I demand my men beside me."Wai-wait I can still get you the cocaine, please just give me more time," Alex states while he lays on the ground."So you're saying that you can get me. My fucking thirty-five balls of cocaine that you stole. In twenty-four hours?" I question this idiot as I rolled my sleeves up."Y-yes." He stutters."Hmm, you were one of my finest buyers." I calmly shrug. "But this time Alex, this one time you chose to fuck up my trust," I say licking my lips, grabbing my blade off the table full of weapons.I slowly approach Alex while I carefully stroke my fingers on the sharp blade. "Stand up," I instructed him with a pressing tone. He slowly grips onto his knees for help to push himself up when he's about to reach my level he quickly collapses onto the bloody concrete floor."Aiutalo." I dictate my men. [translation: Help him.]They quickly rush up to Alex, aggressively pulling him up from the ground. He groans from the sudden pain.

Chapter 3

POV - GABRIELLA SANGRIENTO "Gabriella." I declare as I draw a hand for Giovanni to shake. He gives me an unusual look then gently clasps on my hand and heaves it closer to his lips. He places a soft kiss on my right hand then lets go.Gentleman. I thought to myself."Alessandro." He utters while gazing into my eyes.I fought back a smile.He doesn't realize that I know who he truly is but he knows who I am.Interesting."So, what are you doing here at this massive club, all alone?" I question him as I take a sip of my cocktail.He slightly chuckles, then nibbles his bottom lip and thus responds. "I'm not alone, Bellissima."I raised a brow. "Friends, girlfriend-""Boyfriend...?" I added. He chuckled. "Friends." I nodded my head and watched him as he gulped a mouthful of his drink."What are you doing here alone, Gabriella?"My pulse leapt into my throat the way my name slipped out of his tongue sounded inappropriate yet so right.I noticed tattoos climbing all the way up to his ches

Chapter 4

POV - GIOVANNI CARSON I woke up to a harsh light blinding me. I looked to my side and noticed that the bed was empty.She's gone."Merda."Pinching the bridge of my nose. My mind drifted to that woman.I would have killed her right then and there but...FUCK! This is embarrassing, I've killed thousands and never in my life have my enemies been one step ahead of me. I might have missed something.This is bad, really bad.I climbed off the bed and made my way to the bathroom. I splash cold water onto my face then stare at my reflection, anger boiling my blood.Idiota!I release my anger by punching the mirror in front me, it shatters into a million pieces.I just made the worst mistake and I regret it.- - ┈┈∘┈˃̶༒˂̶┈∘┈┈ - -I glared at Luca as he tried to catch his breath, blood dripping from his lips onto his white tank top."Again." I said as I wiped away the beads of sweat on my forehead with the back of my hand.Luca swung a punch towards my head instinctively I blocked it with my

Chapter 5

POV - GIOVANNI CARSON "What is your brother talking about Giovanni?" My father questioned bitterly.I took a deep breath and turned my head to face Antonio. He smirked wickedly as he crossed his arms over his chest. My sister mumbled something under her breath."Giovanni!" He yelled, banging his fist on the table. My mother flinched.I hopped off the chair and grabbed my coat."Giovanni, come back." Annah pleaded. I turned to her and said. "It was a mistake coming here."She sighed and ran a hand through her blonde hair.Am I surprised that my so-called brother ratted me out? No.Am I pissed? Fuck yes.I needed to get out of here before someone gets hurt, badly."Giovanni, don't you dare walk away from me!" My father yelled from across the room as I walked out the front door and shut it after.I walked 2 blocks away to my all black Range Rover SVAutobiography petrol parked next to my sister's red Ferrari 296 GTB. I opened the car door then tossed my coat on the passenger seat, enteri

Chapter 6

POV - GABRIELLA SANGRIENTO "Idiot." I scoff to myself as I bring the cigarette that's in between my index and middle finger closer to my lips. I suck in a breath of the toxins and exhale it through my nostrils causing a burning sensation.Whenever I saw Giovanni's face I wanted to slit his throat or rip his clothes off and do inappropriate things with him.I roll my eyes as I flick the end of the cigarette to reduce the ash that's pilling up. I sigh to myself as I shift in the bathtub trying to find a comfortable position to be in. Before I could stop myself, my mind drifted off to the delicious anticipation of being skin to skin with him once more. I bite my bottom lip as I feel my area ache for his touch.I clear my throat, bringing myself back to reality. That's enough of relaxing. I step out of the bathtub and take my towel from the hanger to cover my naked body. I walk out of the bathroom and my body is soaking wet leaving trails of water droplets on the floor. I walk into my h

Chapter 7

POV - GIOVANNI CARSON It's been ten hours Since I had the incident with Gabriella. After she left the police had arrived and started to question me asking 'what happened' I simply said I was shot by thieves who tried to rob the club.A fucking lame excuse. I thought to myself.Now the club is shut down for investigation.They believed me and called the paramedics to take me to the hospital. After an hour at the hospital Enzo came to pick me up and started questioning me what happened. I simply cut him off and drove home.I sent Luca and Enzo to rob Gabriella earlier on. A warning to be exact. Sending a message that I'm not fucking playing."Boss?" I hear someone call out. "What the fuck do you want?" I stressfully spat rubbing my temples. "Ms. Reez is here, she said she wants to discuss some business." Mac simply says. "Fuck, tell her I'm busy." I wave him off."Well, that's not nice." I hear a female voice utter. "It's fine, I'll take it from here." I hear my little sister pleasantl

Chapter 8

POV - LUCA RODRIGUEZ "How many are there?" Enzo questioned as he cocked his gun."Surprisingly there are only seven. Three snipers and four ground shooters." I said. "Giovanni is trapped in his office and Annah is wounded." I told Enzo.Enzo brushed his curly hair back then stopped walking. "I'll get Giovanni." He said.I nodded my head and walked away. "Be careful." Enzo yelled.Enzo might be a annoying but his like a brother to me. We always have our up's and downs however we will always have each other's back. The first time we met was when we had a mission together, It was intense and very fun so we started hanging out and here we are. He hasn't had a lover before and doesn't have an interest in girls. Sometimes I think his gay. But it's not my business to jump into conclusions. I climbed a couple of stairs then turned the corner, when I passed a couple of gang members I noticed that they were headed to the weapons room.When I reached outside and turned right. My wrist was

Chapter 9

POV - GIOVANNI CARSON Annah laid on the hospital bed with oxygen tubes attached to her nose. She looked pale, sweat caressed down her face as she breathed in and out. Her lips are chapped and slightly apart, purple bruises appeared on her arm.My legs paced back and forth around the room as I wondered why Antonio would attack us.Luca watches from the corridor then Enzo sidles up beside him."Where were you during the shooting?" I heard Enzo as he questioned Luca.My gaze flicked to the door.Luca turned toward him then back, I caught his gaze and he cleared his throat.Luca and Enzo exchanged words before walking away.I glanced at Annah, watching her carefully. I sighed, throwing myself in a chair besides Annah's bed.I slowly gripped her hand and frowned.Annah is injured and mama and papa are not even here. I sent them multiple texts and tried calling them but they aren't picking up.I kept wondering who was behind the attack. Antonio never attacks unless it involves money.The f
