The unseen shadows

DANTE'S POV The ride home seemed to take forever, my head spun flying down the highway to the racing heartbeat in time with each throb of the reviving car. Whatever Anthony found. It just didn't feel right. There was something in the tone with which he spoke over the phone, reserved as if he didn't say too much until I saw it myself. No sooner had I stepped into the mansion than Camilla and Anthony were waiting for me at the foyer. Camilla leaned casually against the wall, crossing her arms over her chest, but all the while her eyes had not left mine since the moment I came into their view. "Dante." Her voice was soft, yet a drop of concern was clearly indiscriminate in it. I walked up to them, and the feeling of tension in the air was as thick as an ax. "What did you find?" I asked Anthony in a voice as flat as possible, while my stomach seemed to have a storm brewing inside it. Anthony nodded toward the hallway. "Let's go to the control room, and I'll show you." It was a

Surprise connection

CAMILLA'S POVDays in the mansion had all started to blur together. Since the kidnapping attempt, Dante had been practically forcing me to take some time off from work to take care of Jasper, but being home was slowly eating me alive. Jasper, -was just so full of life, but weeks confined inside crippled me. I needed an outing.I turned back to Jasper, who lay on his play-mat staring in wonder at the dangling toys, his little hands swatting at them. I couldn't help but smile at the sight of him. At the same time, part of me was really coveting fresh air and adult conversation. Whipping out my phone, I tapped out a quick text to Kate. We haven't had time to see each other since I started working at the company. She and I had only recently clicked, so it seemed nice catching up with her.*Hey Kate! Was thinking of getting out for a bit. Want to catch up over lunch?*It wasn't very long before she did reply. “Oh, absolutely! I could do with a break myself. How about that little Italian pl

Close Enemy

CAMILLA'S POVThis drive back to the mansion felt longer than usual because the tension between Anthony and me filled the space. Jasper slept peacefully in his car seat, oblivious to the awkward energy swirling around us.It just wasn't computing in my head, and I was stuck within it. Kate? Anthony's wife? What was the possibility of such a crazy coincidence? And to crown it all, that look they'd given across at the restaurant, things which at that time I wouldn't have given a second thought but were now nagging me as if there was more to them than met the eye.A few minutes of complete silence later, I couldn't help myself but turn to him and ask:"Anthony," I said, my voice tentative. "Why didn't you tell Kate about your work? About… everything?"He stiffened a fraction, his eyes on the road ahead, yet for one second I actually thought he wouldn't say another word."It's better she doesn't know," he finally grumbled in that deep hoarse voice of his.I arched my brow. "Better? You th

Silver Skull

DANTE'S POVCamilla had been begging to go back to work for weeks, and I finally relented. It wasn't easy to let her out of the house, much less out of my sight, not after everything that had happened. That kidnapping attempt on Jasper still haunted my every waking moment. But Camilla wasn't made to sit at home. I knew that. And so, I increased Jasper's security detail, instructing the nanny, as well as every last one of my men, to call me at the first hint of trouble.As we pulled up to the hospital, I glanced over at Camilla in the passenger seat. Intent on her phone, no doubt checking emails, like all was right with the world. But nothing had been since that night. I blew out a deep breath and forced myself to push down the unease crawling up my spine. We were going to see Alex first before heading to the office. We stepped through the doors into the hospital, into that world of disinfectant and quiet hum of activity. I clench my jaw as we head down the hall."There he is," Camill

Next to me

CAMILLA'S POVDante, really, I don't think that's such a great idea that we show up together," I said for what felt like the hundredth time as we pulled up to the company parking lot. I glued my eyes on the window as employees trickled into the building, my stomach twisting with nerves. I still have a hard time fitting in since I started working here.Of course, Dante didn't care. He shut off the car and turned toward me with that annoyingly calm expression of his. "And as I've said, no one will bother you if they know you're in a good relationship with me, at least.""I'm already having trouble fitting in," I grumbled, crossing my arms. "You showing up with me, after I've had a long break, isn't exactly helping.”His hand had brushed mine, and I looked up to catch him grinning, his eyes twinkling with mirth. "If anyone says anything, I'll take care of them. They wouldn't dare."I huffed. With Dante, there was just no arguing. His overprotectiveness stifled me at times, though I knew

I’m Done

CAMILLA'S POVDante slid into the seat beside me like it had always belonged to him, utterly and completely oblivious that every last soul in the cafeteria was staring. I sat in wordless face-on-fire deep fire of heat and wished on every available star that the universe would just spare me from this. I kept my head down and hoped he'd just eat quietly and leave.Of course, that was just a bit too much to hope for."Afternoon, ladies," Dante said smoothly, voice slicing through murmurs of quiet. "I hope you're treating Camilla well. She's quite important around here, you know."I choke on my drink, eyes wide with surprise, as Sarah exchanges excited glances with Hannah, and I want to melt into the floor."Of course, Mr. Draven," Megan cooed the words out, the mood doing a complete turn as sugar dripped from her lips while she batted her eyelashes up at him.Dante's eyebrow rose; those lips hooked in that smug grin of his. "Glad to hear that. Make it stay that way. Camilla's part of the

Crossing Boundaries

CAMILLA'S POV"I don't give a fuck what any of those people think," he whispered low, the skin of his forehead pressed firmly against mine, the warm breath tangling with mine in dizzying waves. The light in his office was dimmed down, softening the contours that were otherwise sharp, casting shadows over his jawline, the eyes that seemed to drill into my being with so much intensity. "I'm done pretending, Camilla."His words sent a shiver down my spine, and fear and undeniable thrill knotted in dead heat. The tension thickened, stretched between us like a live electric wire ready to snap as my heart hammered, holding his gaze. And before I could gather my thoughts even, his lips had descended on mine-possessive, claiming, and filling the space between us with a hunger I hadn't realized was mutual until that moment.I was slipping, my resistance crumbling against the overt, blunt force of his kiss. His hands-rough, yet gentle in their intent wrapped around my face, angling it, so the k

More than a contract

CAMILLA'S POVAnd then, without any warning at all, his lips branded mine-hard and unrelenting. It was as if my body had its own mind, my hands found their way to his shoulders to steady myself as he kissed me, and I could feel his heartbeat racing against my own. I melted into him, letting my body take over where my mind was too dizzy to keep up.I was a heartbeat behind him in my response, matching him in the violence of a kiss that let our fire burn wild and free as our last barriers dissolved. His hands slid down my sides, his touch sending waves of heat through me, and I lost it as he swung me into his arms."Dante," I whispered low, not really off the kiss. "We…“Tell me to stop, and I will," he whispered against my lips, challenging, urging, yet his hands didn't listen, his fingers dancing down my sides, trailing fire.But I couldn't. I didn't want to. I wrapped my arms around him, my fingers diving into his hair, silently pleading for him to keep going. Any caution just melted

Free Broadcast

DANTE'S POVThe morning air held a weird spark to it as Camilla and I pulled into the parking lot. I could feel her eyes on me, her hesitation lingering in the air like some silent plea."Dante," she whispered, her hand reaching out and gripping my wrist before I could even open my door.I turned, quirking a brow, feigning ignorance to her unspoken question. "Yes, my love?"Let's not walk in together," she whispered, nudging her head to the high glass entrance. "People will talk… you know how they are."I chuckled low. "You worry too much about them.""I just don't want the office to start playing their gossip game. Can't we just keep things low-key for a little while longer?" she insisted - the appeal shining bright in her eyes, begging my yielding.I nodded finally, exhaling. "Fine, have it your way, Camilla." And with that, I tucked the argument for later.She raised an eyebrow slightly, expecting at least an argument. But I gave her only a small devious grin. "You'd better get ins

Office Affair

DANTE'S POVMy heart pounded in my chest, dread and a tinge of disbelief as Camilla's frantic stare cut into me. She shook her head, her lips compressed into a thin line. "Dante, your mic!" she hissed.I stared for a moment at the winking light of my collar, registering for the first time just what that meant. Live mic. The whole boardroom had listened."Oh, shit," I breathed reality barreling over me like a freight train. The past five minutes flitted across my brain in horrifying detail: muttered words, giggles, gasps, moans. Everyone in that room had heard it all.Camilla's hand had fisted, and in the instant before I could take even preliminary defense, she had leaned forward and rammed a quick fist into my chest. Anger and humiliation were equally etched on her face. "I can't believe you!" she snarled, moving backward with her red face changing to one of anger. "How could you be so careless?”I opened my mouth to answer, but she wasn't sticking around to hear my excuses. With one
