Forced To Be The Mafia King's Bride
My breath caught in my throat the moment my eyes dropped between his legs.
Oh God.
His cock was hard, heavy, long, impossible to ignore. Panic filled my chest.
“Is… that going inside me?” The words slipped out before I could stop them. My voice didn’t even sound like mine, small, breakable.
“Oh, sweet doll…” His voice dropped, gravelly and dark. “It’s not just going inside you.”
He stepped closer, towering over me. My skin heated as his hand wrapped around himself, stroking twice. He swelled even larger, as though to prove the threat in his words.
“It’s going to stretch you wide open. You’ll feel me for days. You’ll walk with the memory of me buried deep, dripping down your thighs. You’ll cry from it, shake from it, and still… you’ll beg for more.”
“Oh…” The sound tore from me, heavy with terror.
I was sold for three million dollars to the man who killed my father.
Dante De Luca, older, ruthless, dangerously handsome and untouchable.
He didn’t buy me for a night.
He bought me for a lifetime, to make me his mistress… and then, his wife.
Trapped in a contract marriage, I vowed never to love him.
But my body betrayed me.
His possessive kisses. His punishing touch.
I found myself wanting more. Craving him. Yearning for everything he gave.
Dante wanted revenge, because my father killed his wife and stole his Mafia kingship.
He wanted to punish me.
He wanted to break me.
But somewhere in his quest to cause me pain… he began to fall and save me, even from my own father.
Now, when loyalty calls upon me, I’m torn.
Between the man who raised me… and the man who owns my heart.

Chapter: Chapter 230: Ready To Risk It AllGianna's POV Dante carried me back into the room. He laid me down on the bed with surprising gentleness, his eyes never leaving mine. "I'm going to make you forget your own name," he rasped, his voice rough with promise. The intensity in his gaze made my breath hitch. It was hungry and possessive. "That's a bold claim." "Is it?" He smirked, that devastatingly wicked smile that made my stomach flip. "We'll see if you're still talking back in ten minutes, pretty doll." "Ten minutes?" I raised an eyebrow, trying to maintain some composure even as heat flooded through me. "Someone's confident." "Five, then," he growled, climbing onto the bed and caging me beneath him. "Since you want to be a smartass." Before I could respond, his mouth was on mine, swallowing whatever witty comeback I had been preparing. The kiss was consuming, his tongue sweeping against mine with devastating thoroughness. His teeth caught my lower lip, tugging gently before soothing it with his tongue. I melt

Chapter: Chapter 229: Exposing My VulnerabilityGianna's POVLater that evening, Dante and I were back in our room, standing on the balcony. The sun was beginning to set, casting everything in shades of gold and amber.He stood behind me, his arms wrapped around my waist, and I relaxed against his chest, looking out over the beautiful estate and the trees beyond.It was peaceful and perfect.But my mind would not stop racing."So," I began casually, trying to keep my tone light. "What did you and your uncle talk about?"I felt Dante stiffen slightly behind me, though his arms did not loosen their hold."I guessed it was about me," I continued when he did not immediately answer. "He does not trust me, does he?"Dante sighed, his breath warm against my hair. "He can be difficult.""I understand," I replied, and I meant it. "He is looking out for you. I do not blame him for being cautious.""Gianna..."I turned in his arms so I could look up at him. "It is okay, Dante. Really. I get it."But Dante's expression was serious. He cupped m

Chapter: Chapter 228: Foolish In LoveDante's POV"He would not get the chance," I countered firmly. "But even if he did, it would not matter. Gianna chose us over Lorenzo the moment she married me. She understands what that means."Cesare studied me for another long moment. "You are absolutely certain? Because if you are wrong, if she betrays us to Lorenzo, it will not just be your life at stake. It will be all of Arielle and everyone who works for you."The mention of my daughter's name made my chest tighten. I would never knowingly put Arielle at risk. Never. She was everything to me, my light, my reason for continuing when the darkness threatened to swallow me whole.But Gianna...I thought about the way she had looked at me when she declared how much she loved me, the fire burning in her eyes as she promised me her loyalty. Maybe it was foolish. Maybe it was a reckless decision. But with every part of me, I believed her.Lorenzo could manipulate all he wanted. He could play on blood, on guilt, on fear. But what he co

Chapter: Chapter 227: Where Does She Stand?Dante's POV After lunch, I excused myself from the living area, catching Cesare's meaningful glance. I already knew what he wanted to discuss. I found Gianna and Vera deep in conversation, laughing about something I had missed. The sight stirred an unexpected warmth in my chest. "Gianna, pretty doll," I said, brushing my hand across her shoulder. "I need to speak with my uncle for a moment." She looked up at me, those beautiful eyes searching mine. "Of course." I could see the hint of uncertainty there, the slight tension in her shoulders. She knew what this conversation would be about. I followed my uncle into his study, the heavy door shutting behind us. Cesare moved to the bar cart without a word, pouring two fingers of whiskey into crystal glasses. He handed me one, then settled into the chair behind his desk with a low chuckle. "Never thought I would see the day." He shook his head as he took a sip of his drink. "Dante DeLuca turned into a lovesick puppy. So soon, too."

Chapter: Chapter 226: Lunch with the DeLucasAnna's POVAn hour later, we were finally dressed. I wore a soft cream dress, and Dante had chosen dark slacks and a fitted black shirt that hugged his muscled frame perfectly.My hair was still damp, curling wildly around my shoulders, but I had given up trying to tame it."Hungry?" Dante asked, his hand finding the small of my back as we headed toward the door."Starving," I admitted. "I think we burned about a million calories last night."He smirked. "At least. Come on, let's feed you before you fade away."We made our way downstairs, his hand never leaving me.My legs still felt shaky, my body deliciously sore in places I had never been sore before.Dante kept his hand on the small of my back, guiding me with that protective touch I was growing addicted to.As we entered the dining room, Vera looked up from where she sat at the table, a knowing smile already playing on her lips."Well, well," she exclaimed, her eyes twinkling with amusement. "We thought you both wouldn't come dow

Chapter: Chapter 225: You’re Going to Regret ThisGianna's POVDante's eyes snapped open, pinning me with a look so intense, so heated, I almost forgot to breathe. "Keep talking like that and I'll forget all about you being sore.""Promises, promises." I pumped him faster, my other hand moving to cup his balls, rolling them gently in my palm. They were heavy and tight. "Besides, you made me wait last night, remember? Made me beg and plead and sob for release.""Gianna…" His voice was strained, his hips starting to move, thrusting up into my hand."You edged me over and over," I continued, my voice dropping to a sultry purr. "Brought me right to the brink and then pulled back. Made me so desperate I would have done anything, said anything, just to come.""If you don't stop…""What?" I leaned closer, my breath hot against his ear. My breasts brushed against his arm. "What will you do? Punish me? Make me beg?" I nipped at his earlobe. "I seem to remember enjoying that last night."His hand shot out, tangling in my wet hair and yanking m

Falling For My Ex's Dad
"I want you... right here... right now." I breathed.
His lips hovered over mine, his breath mingling with my own as he spoke. "Once I start, there's no turning back."
I swallowed hard and nodded. My gaze dropped to his lips, full and tempting. I watched, craving, as his tongue swept across his bottom lip
"How could I possibly want you to stop when my body is aching for your touch?" The words slipped before I could stop them.
For a second, I thought he would push me away again, but then something in him snapped.
His lips inched closer to mine, and his fingers lightly stroked my cleavage. The touch made my breasts push higher against my dress, my nipples tightening, my chest heaving as my heartbeat raced.

Chapter: Chapter 317: Epilogue (Love Conquered All)Clairessa’s POVEveryone laughed as I turned back to them, my cheeks flushed. “Have I told you guys how much I love this man?”Gabriel slipped an arm around my waist, leaning down to murmur, “Not enough. Say it louder.”I swatted his chest, laughing, but before I could retort, Raquel swooped in, pulling me into her arms.“Congratulations, Claire. I knew it. From the very beginning, I’ve always known you would do great things.... and I also knew you and Gabriel were perfect for each other. And now look at you. Married, a baby, and now a CEO too.”“You were right,” I said, smiling as I hugged her tighter.Sergio followed, clasping my hand in his and kissing my cheek. “Congratulations, Clairessa. You’ve made my friend a better man, and you’ve built something incredible.

Chapter: Chapter 316: Apps LaunchClairessa’s POV The stage lights were hot, but the warmth I felt wasn’t from them. It was from the hundreds of faces staring back at me, cameras flashing, the anticipation alive in the air. For a moment, I stood at the microphone podium, trying to take in the reality of it all, my reality. I took a steady breath and let my words pour from the heart. “This app started as messy sketches in my college dorm closet,” I began, and laughter rippled through the crowd. “And today, here we are. My dream is no longer just notes on paper. It’s living, breathing, real.” I paused, letting my eyes sweep across the sea of expectant smiles. “Now.... confession time. This app was actually supposed to launch a year ago.” A playful grin tugged at my lips. “But as you all know, having a baby takes a little more time than debugging codes.” The room burst into laughter, loud and genuine. Cameras flashed like starlight, capturing every second. I leaned in with mock seriousness. “Between midnight feedin

Chapter: Chapter 315: Our Whole World Clairessa’s POV A soft, startled cry, the sweetest music I’d ever heard. Our baby. I lay back against the bed, drenched in exhaustion, my body trembling from the most excruciating pain I’d ever endured…. yet it was pain I would suffer a thousand times over for this moment. Gabriel sat beside me, cradling the tiny bundle against his chest, gently rocking her back and forth. Her eyes squeezed shut as she drifted back to sleep, her breathing soft and even against him. She was perfect. Pale skin, cheeks plump and flushed, lips pursed like she was already annoyed at us for disturbing her peace. Her tiny hand curled around Gabriel’s thumb, impossibly small, impossibly soft. She wore a newborn onesie with bold letters across the front: *Welcome to the world, little princess.* Gabriel’s voice broke through the silence first. He stared down at her in awe, his eyes glistening. “She’s perfect,” he whispered, his voice trembling. “Better than I could have ever dreamed.” He leaned down, pres

Chapter: Chapter 314: Going Into LabourClairessa’s POV The diamond glittered so brightly it almost mocked me for staring at it for the millionth time. I couldn’t help it. The stone was flawless, clear-cut, catching the soft light of the morning and throwing it back in brilliant flashes. It had to be worth a fortune… maybe a million, maybe two. Something outrageous, the kind of thing only Gabriel Storm would think was normal. But today, I wasn’t just staring at my engagement ring. My gaze lingered on the slender band of diamond beside it, the symbol of my marriage. I traced it with my thumb… my wedding band. My proof that I was officially Gabriel’s wife. Even now, weeks later, the word still felt like a dream I hadn’t woken up from. I wanted to pinch myself just to be sure it was real. I’d lost count of how many times I turned my hand back and forth, admiring the way the two rings looked together… as if they’d been waiting all along to sit there on my finger. Twenty-nine days, seventeen hours, and God knows how many mi

Chapter: Chapter 313: No Sparing HerClairessa’s POV Gabriel’s face went pale, his breath stuttering as he tightened his hold. “Now? Here? Jesus….” he cursed under his breath, the words tumbling out ragged, raw panic pouring from him. I winced theatrically, clutching his shoulder tighter. “I told you…my water could break at any minute.” The sheer terror in his eyes nearly broke me. He looked like the ground had been ripped out from beneath him, and yet, somehow, he was still trying to act strong for me. “Great thing…” he muttered frantically, as though reminding himself, “…Daddy plans ahead.” Then his head snapped toward the musicians playing at the edge of the deck. His voice boomed so loud it startled even me. “You!” he barked at the violinist, nearly making the poor man drop his bow. “Run inside, now! Tell them to get the doctor! Right now!” The stunned violinist nearly tripped over his chair as he scrambled, his bow clattering to the floor. And God help me, that’s when guilt nipped at me. Watching the sheer p

Chapter: Chapter 312: Marry MeClairessa’s POVDinner had been set up on the upper deck, Gabriel’s usual brand of over-the-top. Rose petals scattered across the table, a violinist playing quietly in the corner, and the ocean stretched dark and endless around us. Extravagant, dramatic, and just…..perfect.The food had been rich, almost too much, but I savored every bite. Now, with my head resting against Gabriel’s chest and his arms wrapped around me as we stood by the rail, I couldn’t imagine being anywhere else.“Dinner was perfect,” I murmured, watching the waves. “The food, the music, everything. The chef outdid himself. I enjoyed every bit….. I swear I almost cleared the entire table.”“That’s the point of a vacation.” Gabriel reached up, brushing my hair gently to one side of my neck, his fingers lingering for a moment. “You don’t stop yourself. You eat until you can’t anymore.”I tilted my chin up at him, fighting a smile. “And this….. your idea of simple?” My tone was playful, teasing. “Remind me never to co
