All Chapters of Dark Paradise : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

POV - GIOVANNI CARSON It's been a month and things between Gabriella and I are going smoothly.We usually go to work, have a lot of meetings and training after work, we have dinner together then drive back to our houses either at my place or her own.We are all trying to get used to the new changes. People have been getting into stupid fights like youngsters. It fucking frustrated me.I'm currently in a meeting discussing shipping cocaine that we should smuggle across the border."That's fucking impossible." My client Rico spat bitterly, banging his fist on the desk.I rubbed my temple and sighed.Why the fuck is he being difficult?Before I could speak I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. Curious about who sent me a message, I took my phone out of my pocket and saw it was a text message from Gabriella.I unlock my phone and open the message.- Today's plans are canceled. I'll make it up to you later.- Everything alright?I replied then placed my phone on the table."Mr. Carson." R

POV - THEODORE SANGRIENTO I sat on the couch with Oscar as we both watched a true crime documentary.The front door opened then slammed shut and Gabriella's voice filled the foyer. A rush of awareness ran my neck to the length of my spine.I turned to face Oscar and he wasn't fazed by my sister's dramatic entrance."I'm guessing it didn't go well." He spoke, his gaze still glued to the screen. I sighed. "Yeah.""He thinks he can tell me what to do." Gabriella drawled.Before I knew it she entered the living room, she was breathless with anger.Oscar turned his head away from the tv and faced my sister with a scowl. "I take it that it didn't go well."She shook her head and stepped out of her heels.Her makeup was smudge with a trail of mascara running down her cheek."He's a selfish, arrogant, heartless fucker. I fucking hate him." She seethed with bitterness. Oscar's gaze flicked to the tv. "You don't mean that." He said calmly.Gabriella snickers. "Oh I do, I meant every single wor

POV - GIOVANNI CARSON three weeks later I tapped my cigarette on the table as I gazed out the window, Blood dripped down my face with my ribs burning and the lit cigarette in my hand. I was covered in fresh warm blood. It's not mine , it's for that fucking dead bastard who owed me ten fucking grand along with 20-balls of coke. It's warm outside, the sun is bright and there isn't a sight of clouds. Birds chirped, the wind blowing causing the large trees to dance with the wind. Enzo and Luca have been trying to let me talk with Theo, letting him explain everything. I didn't bother to meet up with him. She made her decision and I made mine. I'm planning on calling this whole alliance thing off, we currently won't be able to behave in the same room. And it will be awkward for the others. Without trust and loyalty this thing won't work. Tomorrow I have to make a call and inform Oscar about this. The whole plan with Antonio is still in progress but it will take a while since we are

POV - GABRIELLA SANGRIENTO I sat on the couch with my legs crisscrossed as I forced myself to read a book.It's been cold for the past two days and due to the cold weather I haven't had anything interesting to do besides, sleep , read or watch tv.There was nothing interesting to do in Giovanni's house. He had quite interesting stuff but they weren't for me.Like a room where he practices his knife throwing, a study full of books (I don't like to read) and an indoor pool, room full of weapons and etc.I lifted my gaze when I heard heavy footsteps.Enzo walked in the room. He paused when he noticed me then searched the room."Oh, you're here." He said dryly.I ignored him and continued to read.I've realized that Enzo doesn't like me. It doesn't bother me at all because the feeling was mutual."Where is Giovanni?" Enzo asked. "You just missed him."Enzo sighed, his expression tightening with frustration. "Why are you looking for him?" I asked.He leaned against the wall with arms cro

POV - GABRIELLA SANGRIENTO My birthday is coming up in a month.I haven't told anyone about it because I don't like celebrating my birthday.These past few weeks have been calm and quiet and it worries me. After I killed Esmee and sent her deceased body to Antonio. Antonio and his gang haven't been causing any trouble and I find is suspiciousGiovanni has been distant with his family after his mother's and Annah's passing.The only time they talk is when business is involved and it's only with his uncles.I sat on the kitchen table, legs crossed on the chair, watching Giovanni cook."Are you going to tell me what's for dinner?" I asked."No, you'll have to wait and see." He said.I hopped off the chair then walked over to Giovanni, his back was facing me but he still managed to look hot.He wore a simple black-t shirt with grey sweatpants. I tiptoed so that I could peek and see what he's cooking but his big frame was blocking the stove.I sighed and stepped back. "I'm hungry and preg
