Chapter 35EdenWalking into Yukhaejang, the restaurant where Dario brought me on our first date, I feel nervous for a different reason.I glance at the tables and customers, thinking this place is the complete opposite of the diner.Walking to a stand where a woman is reading something, I wait for her to look at me before I say, “I’m here to see Skylar.”A frown forms on her forehead. “The chef?”“Yes.” Worried I’m going to be kicked out, I add, “She’s expecting me.” “Oh.”As the woman glances over her shoulder, I see Skylar coming from the kitchen.Thank God.A smile spreads over her face when she notices me. “You’re here. Come to the back.”I dart around the stand, and when I reach Skylar, she gives me a quick hug.“Thanks for agreeing to see me,” I say while we walk to an office.When she shuts the door behind us, she smiles at me again. “Let’s get the business out of the way so we can relax.”“Yeah…okay.”She gestures at a chair, and even though I feel too nervous, I sit down. “D

Chapter 36DarioI’ve just picked up the drugs from Frankie, and driving up a street in Brownsville, I recognize an SUV parked outside of a diner.I slow down, and when I park behind the vehicle, I see Eden and Tyrone sitting in a booth. It looks like they’re eating pie.I push the R8’s door open to get out, but an alarm on my phone has me digging the device out.Seeing an alert regarding Miguel, I quickly go into the app. He’s been spotted in Miami.Christ. We have to move fast.I shut the door again, and starting the engine, I pull away from the curb while dialing Damiano’s number.“You better have good news for me. My men killed the fucking uncle,” he mutters.“Miguel’s in Miami,” I say, feeling good that I finally get to give him solid information.“Wheels up in thirty minutes,” he grumbles. “Let the others know we’re meeting at the airfield.”“On it.”The call ends and when I stop at a traffic light, I quickly send a group text out.Miguel spotted in Miami. Meet at the airfield s

Chapter 37DarioI feel a stinging sensation across my side as a bullet narrowly misses me before I fall and slide straight into Renzo.“Christ,” he grunts. “You okay?”“Yeah.” I check the magazine in my gun, then I slam it back into place. “We should’ve brought machine guns,” I mutter as I move into a crouching position.“You’re bleeding,” Renzo says, pulling the fabric of my shirt away from my side.“So are you. Two grazed me. How’s your arm?” “The bullet didn’t go deep. I’ll live.”“You better.”“Where the fuck are you?” Damiano shouts over the gunfire. “DJ’s booth,” Renzo yells.The gunfire stops suddenly, and we hear our boss bark, “Get your asses out here.”We dart up, and as we leave our cover, it’s to see Damiano and Carlo moving up the stairs with Angelo and Big Ricky behind them.“You watch our backs while I keep an eye on the second floor,” I tell Renzo before we run to catch up to the others.Everything is eerily quiet as we take the stairs up, and when we reach the VIP ar

Chapter 38EdenWhen Dario walks into the bedroom looking like hell, I shoot up and rush to his side.“What the hell happened to you?” When I get a good look at him and notice blood on his shirt, I gasp, “Jesus, Dario! Did you get shot?”“No.” He grips my chin with his fingers, and I smell gunpowder. Locking eyes with me, he says, “I’m fine. Two bullets grazed me. It’s nothing serious.”“Let me look at you,” I mutter as I yank my chin free and start to unbutton his shirt.He lets me tug the fabric off, and I let out a breath of relief when I see the grazed skin on his side.“You’re so damn lucky there’s no bullet,” I snap as I shoot him a glare. “I swear to God, if you ever die on me, I’m bringing you back so I can kill you myself.”“One grazed me on my back as well,” he says as if it’s something to be proud of.“What?!” I dart behind him, and seeing the red welt across his back, I slap him against the shoulder. “Get your ass in the bathroom so I can clean the wounds.”“Scrapes,” he c

(One year later…)EpilogueEdenMy life has been a whirlwind of excitement, happiness, love, and hard work.Emphasis on the hard work.The soup kitchen has taken up so much of my time this past year, I’m surprised Dario hasn’t lost his shit yet.The man is a saint.It’s the one-year anniversary of when I first opened the soup kitchen’s doors to the community, and I now have a team of over twenty people working for me.I had to give up the assistant manager position at Skylar’s restaurant, but luckily she understood. I think it was for the best because we’ve grown closer as friends, and I would hate for work to get in the way of our friendship.“Jesus,” Sherrie gasps as she stares at all the food containers being carried in by a catering company. “It looks like we’re feeding an army.”I let out a chuckle. “We are. Back to work.”Sherrie’s been helping out whenever she can, and I always make it worth her time.We continue setting up the coffee and pie section, and when we’re done, I hea

Chapter 2GabriellaWhen Stefano glances at me while he removes his jacket, a weird sensation creeps over my skin.“You embarrassed me, Gabriella,” he mutters as he drapes his jacket over the back of the chair by my dressing table.His tone brims with anger, and it has me glancing at the door.Suddenly, he lets out an incredulous-sounding chuckle. “You’re not even going to apologize?”Pride has me lifting my chin, and I force myself to lock eyes with the man I’m going to marry. If I don’t stand my ground today, he’ll make my life a living hell.“I didn’t do anything wrong,” I say, my voice sounding much stronger than I feel.When Stefano starts to undo his belt, a wave of terror-filled pins and needles coats my skin.Dio.“You can’t take my virginity until we’re married,” I say as if the words will stop him.Stefano’s mouth lifts in a smirk. “You already belong to me.”“No.” I shake my head. “Mr. Falco hasn’t given his permission.”“I don’t plan on fucking you right now. First, I’m go

Chapter 3DamianoHalfway to the airfield where the private jet is waiting, I tuck my phone back into my pocket.Stefano’s pissed off that I didn’t give my blessing and instead took the woman he wanted to marry, but he’ll just have to get over it.The di Bella household is a fucking mess, and I refused to stay there a second longer. I’m used to violence. It’s second nature to me, but having to see Gabriella degraded and mistreated tested my patience. If I’d stayed for dinner, instead of leaving, there would’ve been a blood bath.I glance at Gabriella and notice she’s changed her outfit. She looks glamorous in the pink suit, and even though I have zero interest in her, I notice her cleavage that’s on full display.She might be on the shorter side, but she has curves in all the right places. She’s beautiful, but that’s not why she’s sitting beside me.When she held eye contact with me, I was actually a little stunned. It showed she has more guts than most of the men in our world.No mat

Chapter 4GabriellaMy heart is beating wildly in my chest, dread coating my skin, and my nerves frayed from the interrogation I somehow survived.The past forty minutes of sitting next to Damiano were the most unnerving of my life.My hand still tingles from gripping his arm. I was so scared when the plane took off I didn’t realize I’d grabbed hold of him.I can be glad I’m still alive after touching him without his permission.The split second before I pulled my hand away, I felt his strength rippling beneath my fingertips.Even where I’m sitting on the other side of the cabin, I can feel the violent energy coming from Damiano.His refusal to answer my question makes me worry. It would be stupid to assume he took me for himself. He might have something worse planned for me.Dio.I suck in desperate breaths as a panic attack threatens to overwhelm me. You’d think I’d be used to nerve-wracking situations after everything I’ve endured at the hands of my family, but sitting in a private

Chapter 5GabriellaMy eyes dart from one tall building to another, and I’m struck speechless at the hustle and bustle of cars and people so late at night.After an hour's drive, the SUV enters an underground parking, and only when we climb out do I realize the other guards didn’t follow us. I have no idea what’s happened to my belongings.“Come,” Carlo mutters.I follow Damiano and his guard into an elevator, the muscles in my body wound tight as I cautiously glance from one man to the other.Being alone with them is super unnerving.Instead of the elevator opening on a residential floor, the doors open on the roof.When I see the helicopter, my stomach drops to my feet, and my mouth dries up.Oh no.This is why Damiano made the comment earlier.The wind is icy up on the roof, and I try to rub some warmth into my arms.The helicopter doesn’t look as trustworthy as the private jet, and I start to tremble as I climb into it.Damiano takes a seat beside me, sitting much closer to me bec
