ONE

IZZY The sounds of moans and grunts grew louder as I approached my fiance's bedroom one step at a time. Our contract marriage was supposed to happen tomorrow. But here he was, being utterly reckless.I snorted in amusement, suppressing the annoyance that simmered inside of me as I grabbed the doorknob and pulled it open. The shameless duo scrambled apart from each other the moment I stepped in. Darren stared at me, an annoyed expression on his face."What are you doing here?" He demanded, and I cracked a smile, settling down on a chair in the room, my legs crossed. My fiance let out a string of curses as he raked his fingers through his messy blond hair, and the unfortunate woman in his bed grabbed her possessions and hightailed it out of the room. "You still haven't answered my question," Darren snapped, pulling up his pants. "You breached our contract, Darren," I drawled, rising to my feet.He frowned, confusion written all over his face."What the hell is that supposed to

IZZY "What is this?" I breathed, tears blurring my vision. I was shaking so hard, panic assaulting my senses."Divorce papers..." I heard him say. My knees gave out, and I sank to the ground, lifting my gaze to search his eyes. But before my gaze could meet his, I was pulled into darkness...With a gasp, I jolted upright in bed, a feeling of loss gripping me. For a moment, I sat there, burying my face in my hands. Was my dream a remnant of the past I couldn't remember? I wondered. My grandparents had mentioned that I had once been married. However, they never spoke of the man whom I'd been married to. I'd always found it strange. The pain in my head spiked up, and nausea rolled through me, a reminder of the fact that I'd gotten myself drunk the previous night. Speaking of the previous night...My head snapped up, every muscle in my body freezing over as I took in the sight of the large room I was in. This was definitely not my bedroom. A hotel? In that moment, the memories

LUCA I watched her as she stared at me with eyes that mirrored her disbelief. I couldn't blame her. To her, we were pretty much strangers. Yet, there I was, claiming that I wanted her permission to be her shield. The truth was, I meant it. There was no other person in the world I would risk my life to protect. She didn't know that yet. "You're insane," she said, her eyes growing cold. She was fucking hot when she was pissed. I'd seen this expression several times, and no matter how many times I did, my heart always fluttered in my chest. "I don't know what you really want from me, but you're not going to get it," she said, and my gaze drifted to the fullness of her cherry pink lips. The memory of the way she'd kissed me the previous night replayed itself in my head, and I felt myself harden. It was useless. I had no self-control when it came to her. Somehow, she always shattered my defences every single time. Even worse, I would gladly let her ruin me. "Get away from me wh

IZZY I saw red, the colour of fresh blood. I had never felt so angry. I couldn't believe what Heath had just said to me. "The police will be here soon. You will most likely end up in jail," he'd said. "For what? I did nothing wrong," I hissed, and he cracked a sick smile at me. "Are you pretending to be dumb?" He sneered, and I clenched my jaw, barely resisting the urge to drive my fist into his face. "Why are you doing this to me?" I said, and he laughed. "With you out of the picture, I will recover everything that rightfully belongs to me," he responded, and I slapped him across the face, hard. He spat on the floor, his face contorted with rage. "You keep talking like Abuela and Viejo are dead. They are still alive, you hear me?! No matter what you do, it won't go the way you want it to," I snapped. "They're here," he suddenly said, and I turned towards the men approaching us by the corridor. One of them waved his ID card at me, a grim look on his face. "This is

IZZY I stared at the contract document in front of me, my grip on my pen tightening. "You're going to burn a hole into the paper," Luca said, and I looked up at him. We were both in his study, seated on opposite sides of his desk. I still couldn't help but worry about the message I'd received earlier. "Is there a reason why you're doing this?" I asked, and he leaned back on his seat, a blank expression on his face. "I thought we agreed not to pry into each other's private life," he droned, and I narrowed my eyes at him. "It's not fair. You know too much about me," I snapped. He stared at me for a while. Then he spoke. "It's similar to yours. I need a wife if I'm to take over my father's company," he replied, and I frowned, unconvinced. "You look more like you belong in the underground business," I muttered, and he smirked. "You think so? Well, if you’re having second thoughts, now would be the time to walk away." "What?" I frowned. Luca leaned forward, his heated ga
