Bound By Blood: The Step-Brothers' Temptation
Amelie DaVinci never expected to be stolen from the altar. One moment, she was walking down the aisle. The next, her stepbrothers stormed in, guns drawn, tearing her from the life she never wanted.
Luca, the cold and ruthless leader, plays mind games that blur the line between cruelty and seduction. Matteo teases her with whispered promises of pleasure and pain. And Nico, the silent one.
As a mafia war ignites and betrayals cut deep, Amelie faces an impossible choiceβfight back or surrender to the dark temptation of the men who refuse to let her go.
Escape is impossible. Betrayal is inevitable. And surrendering to the darkness might be her only way to survive.
Amelie knew she shouldnβt be anywhere near them. But here she was, trapped between Luca and Matteo, with Nico watching from the armchair.
Matteoβs fingers brushed against her waist. βYou know,β he murmured, βyou keep running, but you always end up right back here. With us.β
Amelie swallowed hard. βThis is a mistake.β
Luca hummed in amusement. βThen why havenβt you stopped us?β His fingers wrapped around a loose strand of her hair, tugging lightly. βOr better yet, why havenβt you stopped yourself?β
She shivered. βWe shouldnβt be doing this,β she whispered, but it lacked conviction.
Nico finally moved, his gaze locking on hers. βThen walk away,β he said. βIf thatβs what you really want.β
Amelieβs breath hitched. Her body betrayed her, leaning slightly into Lucaβs touch, into Matteoβs warmth.
Matteo tilted her chin up, forcing her to meet his gaze. βThatβs what I thought.β His lips hovered over hers. βWeβre not the ones keeping you here, Amelie. You are.β
This was dangerous. It was reckless. But she knew she was already theirs.
