Nico POV I arrive at the clearing more than an hour early. My first thought is to scout around the place and make sure that this isn't a trap, but the noise around the cabin area stops me. Garfield Bay, in Little Italy, New York. A whole goddamn half an hour drive from the main city. My first conclusion was to ignore the message and enjoy another not-so-glorious night in the hotel but alas, my bored ass already knows that I'm a sucker for suspense. Waiting this long is already killing me. If my suspicions are correct, of which they are ninety-nine percent of the time, then I am facing off against Robert Hunter, another one of the leaders of a rival mafia pack. But that isn't the only thing about him. He's twice my age and so without a doubt way more established than I am. And we are enemies. I park my car and step out of it. The only thing that can be heard is the sound of the waves against the rocks. I close the door of the car, still not believing that I did exactly what he s

Jasmine's POV—"Sorry, did I scare you, baby girl?" he asks, casually hiding his gun in his pocket like I’m supposed to forget that it was there just a moment ago.I don’t even realize I’m stepping back from him until he takes a step forward himself. There is a dark look in his serpent-green eyes. Something is definitely wrong with him this time."Don't come near me!" I shriek before I can stop myself.He’s covered in blood, and he had a gun in his hand a second ago. I don’t even want to know whose blood it is.He should be behind bars. Everything about him is literally screaming *dangerous.*"You know," Nico starts saying something as he continues to walk toward me.He stops midway and winces in pain."Fuck," Nico curses and staggers back, holding his left arm. He leans against the counter for support.I momentarily forget about the warning signals in my head and that I’m supposed to stay far away from him, and I instantly run to his side."What happened to you?" I ask, gently pullin

JASMINE POV —"Do you want me to call the doctor?" I ask after a while, trying to change the subject and dissuade the heavy tension that is in the air.Nico jerks his head suddenly in my direction. His eyes soften the slightest bit and he shakes his head, running his fingers through his hair."That won't be necessary. You can go now," he dismisses me.I can't help but think that his mind is rather preoccupied with something. But Nico never struck me as the type to get lost in his thoughts.Well, why wouldn't he be? After what just happened, that was enough reason for someone to get lost in thoughts. Did he regret it? Suddenly my mind was overrun by a lot of thoughts."On second thought, you could stay if you want to," Nico's words cut through my thoughts.This time, I jolt up to my feet."I... I'll be on my way," I stutter and walk over to the doorway without another thought."Aw, what a killjoy," he remarks behind me in a playful voice. There is a disappointing edge to his voice that

Nico POV Camila walks into the room. I look up from the table. I just wrapping the last bandage around the wound. It should stop bleeding by now, but for some reason, I still wasn't satisfied. I had to admit that Jasmine had been pretty bold back then, but what scared me was that I enjoyed every bit of it. And then she just had to return to the innocent little girl that was frightened of me. That was the part that I don't like."What do you want?" I ask.Camila doesn't respond. Instead, she walks over to me and gives me a questioning look, tilting her head to one side. Once again, she's beautifully dressed in a pale blue satin dress that stops a little way down her knees and frames her curves perfectly. Once again, she's complete elegance and grace. The perfect picture, the goddamn perfect wife. Once again, I don't feel any hint of attraction to her. Not the slightest bit of desire. And I don't even hate myself for it. It is like I've always known that my heart is already sealed

Nico's POVI went into the bathroom to freshen up, then came out and picked up my wristwatch before grabbing a few things.It was dark by the time I got out of the hotel. It didn't take me long to walk to the car, and then I drove down to the penthouse.The penthouse is one of the many structures that I have here in Little Italy, along with 13 mansions and two companies. For some reason, the penthouse is more comfortable for us to hang out in anytime we come to the city.My sports car slid in through the metal gates, which automatically parted for me to pass, and I parked it at the corner. There were already two cars parked to the side. I was going to guess that they belonged to my men and the escorts.I braced myself for the meeting that was to come and then finally kicked open the car door and stepped out. I approached the doorway, knowing full well that Fabio would definitely question me for being late. Ignoring that, I entered the penthouse, realizing that I was already late."Jus

Jasmine POVEven two days after speaking with Aurora, I can’t help but wonder if her boss is telling the truth.A voice in my head tells me to stay clear of Nico’s business. I’m already in a lot of trouble as it is, and I wouldn’t mind if everything else calmed down when it comes to me.So what if there’s no real love between him and his wife, Camila?

Nico's POV —"Who is the kid's father?" I ask. I keep one hand on the steering, easily navigating through the traffic and speeding down the highway. I leave the second hand on her thighs simply because it belongs there. Something about her draws me in. The way she shivers every time I touch her, the way she flinches from me like she's scared that I'm going to harm her, and yet she draws closer to me. The way I have her completely at my mercy she's so innocent now that it's driving me completely crazy. And once again I have to wrestle for control with my mind. The beast in me wants to be let loose. I could barely control him and my desires whenever she was in sight. Part of me what to take her right there, claim her as mine. But if I do that, I'm not sure that I can keep my promise to not hurt her. And so I compensate myself by just running my hand up her thighs in a sensual rhythm that will have to do for now until we both agree that she wants me I can feel her hesitating, not wa

Jasmine's POVI walk down the hall of the hotel, a box clutched under my hand as I make my way to the Manager's office. A few minutes ago, I received a package for the manager. While people don't usually leave packages in front of the hotel and usually make it through to him themselves, it isn't exactly out of the ordinary either.And so, sometimes I do go and hand him his orders myself, as I already work at the front desk.As I make my way up the elevator, it clicks open. I heave a sigh when I see that no one is there. The truth is that I'm still giddy from yesterday with Nico Ferrari.He might have taken me against my will in his car, but then again, I find myself not regretting any moment.The more I try to pull out, the more I find myself falling deeper into his intricately crafted net that seems to be designed to get me trapped in his words.The door of the elevator slides open, indicating that I am already at the top floor where the Manager's office is.A man in an Italian suit

JASMINE'S POVA job offer in one of Nico's companies.Just before I was done with my shift and about to call it a day and go home, my phone beeps with a notification. I look down to see that it is an alert.I clamp a hand over my mouth, gasping softly. I stare at the five figures in shock. The manager really wasn't joking about my raise, but this is even way over a fifty percent increase. And is this what he means by an early payment before the end of the day?A chill runs through me when I remember that Nico is the one solely behind this. I can't help but wonder what the hell he is up to now.Isn't it clear? A voice in my head replies.The amount is more than enough to cover all my bills for the next couple of months and take care of Michael. Even if I didn’t let him see the child, Nico is still doing what he could to take care of us.Be smart, the manager's words echo in my head.I walk down the pedestrian way and exit the hotel.I take the public transport back as usual.Even when

Nico’s POV"What do you think she's going to say?" Fabio asks as he slips into the seat next to me.I shift a little, putting just enough distance between us on the large sofa. I don't even glance in his direction; instead, my eyes are focused on the window that overlooks the side of the room.We are on the highest floor in one of the lounges. A single flight of stairs leads up to the rooftop, but I have no intention of going there right now.This window gives me a great view of the driveway down below, and I can see clearly as Jasmine walks out of the hotel, seeming rather in a hurry.It takes all of my self-restraint not to let my intrusive thoughts win over; otherwise, I would have pulled out a pair of binoculars and gone full stalker mode on her.Unfortunately for me, before I can think of anything else, she disappears through the gates of the hotel."Well?" Fabio repeats next to me. It takes me a while to register that he's even there in the first place."What do you want?" I ask
