Chapter: Chapter six: Trap in Marco's gameAlessa's heart skipped a beat at the sound of her real name. Her fork froze mid-air, a piece of the egg she was eating was left dangling. She forced herself to chew slowly, as she kept thinking fast. How did he find out? She had thought that she was so careful. Her alias, Diana, was the best she has ever used or so she thought.She swallowed the bite and set her fork down, her expression calm but she could hear her pulse sounding in her ears. "Alessia Romano?" she repeated, bending her head slightly as if she was amused. "I'm sorry you've mistaken me for someone else, signore Marco."Luca leaned back into his chair, his dark eyes shone with amusement and something sharper, something scary maybe, danger! "Oh, I don't think so," he said, his voice low and smooth, like a soft bed linen. "You see, I have a very good memory for faces. And names. Especially when they belong to someone who tried to kill me."Alessa's stomach rumbled as she was uneasy at this point, but she kept her face neut

Chapter: CHAPTER FIVE ROOM INVITE??Shortly after Diana Frost had kissed him and left, Marco stood up and went to his VVIP suite where he was to meet with a gang lord that flew in from Los Angeles.“You are late Mr. Marco I do not appreciate lateness”, the gang lord said without standing up to show respect “I had business to attend to but let us get down to our own business immediately”, Luca replied before pouring himself a drink. “When should I expect my shipment from LA?”“It will arrive in a week’s time”, the visitor said. “I’m here to conclude the business transaction”Marco sat down at his chair behind his table, he suddenly felt very dizzy but he knew he had to control himself to avoid looking weak in front of his business partner. “You really did not have to fly all the way down here to conclude a transaction. I will wire the money as soon as I get my goods.”Marco head started swimming and he knew he had to leave immediately and get back to his suite, he knew he had been poisoned but he could not think about h

Chapter: CHAPTER FOUR: Kisses And DeathAlessa could not believe her luck, she schooled her face into a non-chalant mask as she mused over how lucky she was to have to meet her target twice already. She was suddenly more annoyed at how unprepared she had been at both instances; first, at the elevator and now, here. Immediately she had recognized who he was back when they were in the elevator alone, she was frustrated that she could not make any move to hurt him because this was his family’s hotel and the elevators had camera. They would have seen her face and haunted her down until they were sure she was dead, so she let that opportunity slide and decided to come and check out how The Opal is appealing to people of his caliber.She couldn’t deny that she was impressed but she was more frustrated that the only weapons she had on her was a gun she had hidden under her dress and a poison lipstick she always carried in her purse. She had no idea how she would manage to kill him and walk away since the only reasonable way to do

Chapter: CHAPTER THREE : Lady In Red“Father, forcing a marriage on me really isn’t the best option, especially to Sofia. You know I only have affection towards her as the cousin she is to me. This marriage would break her”, Luca tried to reason with his father who was just sitting quietly and letting him rant, Luca never liked when his father goes quiet, it never is a good sign and so he was almost certain that all this logical reasoning wasn’t going to change his stubborn father’s mind.“Sofia is beautiful, kind, compassionate and she is family. Non si fa del male alla famiglia (we don’t hurt family) and you know this”, Vincenzo de Luca responded calmly.Marco De Luca took a deep breath to calm himself down, he now understood why his father had picked Sophia a. She was supposed to be some beacon of hope that appeals to his humanity for some reason and his father was right, he would never hurt Sopia…at least not physically but he could not vouch for that in regards to emotionally and mentally.“Find a woman that would m

Chapter: CHAPTER TWO : Alessa For Hire“I heard you are the best assassin in the whole of Boston and with this results you have shown, I no longer have a doubt”“As long as the pay is good, the job is going to be worth it. It is my policy”, Bianca replied as she pushed a stray hair away from her face to the back of her ears.The man that hired her had a grin on her face that she didn’t like but for the amount of money he had paid for the past two jobs, she stomached the disgust she felt. It was not that the man was ugly, on the contrary, he was actually outer worldly handsome with his very enrapturing green eyes. What she was not comfortable with was his aura, it was deadly…a bit too deadly for her taste.“Perfect!”, he exclaimed as he leaned back on his seat. “I have a new job for you.”“I am sorry to decline. That was my last job for you.” She turned around and started walking away.“I will pay you $400,000,000 to do this particular job”, his voice dripped of pure hate that made Alesaa’s blood curl*. Why would anyone pay

Chapter: CHAPTER One: The Warning Marco De Luca woke up from sleep and looked around him, he sighed disappointedly went he saw the two ladies that laid naked beside him. He was already growing annoyed at the sight of their porcelain bodies lying peacefully beside him. Yes, the sex was good but he needed them out of his penthouse immediately, so he rudely shook them awake. They grumbled as they woke up and started touching his shoulders, thighs and any other parts of him their sluggish hands could reach, thinking he was waking them up for another bout of sex.“Get out of here immediately”, he growled and stood up from the bed and went to the bedstand, he pulled out a gun from the drawer and showed the ladies.“I am going to go and take a shower; I don’t want to come and meet either of you here or else…” he paused and waved the weapon in from of the scared ladies who were suddenly widely awake and bundled together. The sight made him chuckle slightly. “The good news though is, I don’t take so long in the bathroom. Ten m

Chapter: Chapter Eight: The Discovery 2Damiano's POV My hands stayed hovering above her hair. I wasn't sure why I reached out to it. Maybe it was because she looked a lot like her. Not a lot, but exactly like her. It was like she had been reborn.I thought my words from earlier would scare her, and it did. But I wasn't sure why, but it hurt. She looked away as if trying to avoid getting hit or even... wait a minute, was that what she thought was about to happen?I reached for her hair again and picked out the red thread that was on it.She stayed like that for a few seconds before finally opening her eyes. She looked from me to my hand, and then to me again.I lifted the thread for her to see."You had this in your hair."She squinted as she stared at it, before finally letting out a nervous chuckle."Oh... Thank you... I just thought—""—hat I was trying to make out with you in the hallway?" I said, cutting her off She was stunned. "Wait! What? Ewww... Gross?"I arched my brow. "Excuse me?"She snickered.

Chapter: Chapter Seven : The Discovery Alessia's POV I waited for it. I waited for his arms to hit me hard. But nothing happened.When I looked up, our eyes met. He had no expression on his face. I looked from his arm, to him and back—confused. Then, he raised his arm. "This was on your hair," He muttered. I leaned forward, squinting my eyes. There was a thread in his hand. Sh*t! I thought he was about to hit me because he found out who I was."Oh... Thank you... I just thought—""—That I was trying to make out with you in the hallway?" I was stunned. "Wait! What? Ewww... Gross?"Like I would ever want to get involved with someone like him. I mean, I knew he was handsome and all, but come on, he was one of the devil's hands. Getting involved with him would be suicide.He arched his brow. "Excuse me?"I snickered. "No offense, Mr. Valentino. But you're not my type."What the hell? The words left my lips before I could stop them. But, since the beans had been spilled, I couldn't go back on that."Oh, is that so?" He mut

Chapter: Chapter Six: The Red WigAlessia’s POVI stood frozen for a while—shocked, scared and confused.The CEO's eyes widened like he recognized me or something.But that wasn't possible. I had a mask on, and I was also putting on a red wig. To top it off, I was dressed so decently that a priest would want to marry me. So there was no way he was able "Is anything wrong?" The chairman asked, pulling me out of my thoughts.I shook my head. "No, Sir. I'm just surprised to be in the presence of the famous CEO," I said, an awkward smile curving my lips."Oh," The Chairman muttered. "I was actually talking to Mr. Valentino."Okay, ouch. That hurt. I guess no one cared about how the 'Lady of the Hour' felt."I'm fine, Mr. Russo. I just didn't think a lady as beautiful as this was a doctor in your hospital. I wouldn't have minded being admitted weeks ago?"I had to say, not only was he good-looking, but he was also good with words. I mean, he had short, tousled black hair and striking silver eyes that gleamed like metal.

Chapter: Chapter Five: The SecretsAlessia's POVWhat do I do? What if he finds me? What if he kills me? Or worse, kills us?So many thoughts ran through my head as I paced in the kitchen. It's been a day, and I still couldn't get what happened that night out of my head.I didn't think someone like him would be Salvatore's third in command. I mean, if he was, then how powerful would Salvatore be? And I kicked his...sh*t...I should've just listened to Luca and left when I had the chance. I—"When you're done sweeping the floor with your feet, maybe you can try doing it with a vacuum cleaner too," Alessandro said, pulling me out of my thoughts. "I heard they work wonders."I rolled my eyes as I headed to set the dining table. Alessandro was my twin brother and a pain in the a**. Sometimes, I wonder what life would've been without having a pest clinging to me all the time."Ouch!" He winced as he grabbed one of the pancakes I had made. "What are these...made in hell?"I couldn't help but chuckle. "Maybe that'll teach you

Chapter: Chapter Four: Members from the PastDamiano's POV I had a quick shower before changing and heading downstairs."You're up early," Leo muttered as I walked into the kitchen, a smirk playing at the corners of his lips.I ignored him, knowing he was trying to tease me."Do you want to tell me what the green-eyed witch did to you now?" He asked as he handed me a glass of waterI glared at him as I downed the water and dropped the glass on the kitchen counter.He raised his hand in surrender, walking towards the freezer. He pulled out a few blood packs, staring at the label."Chicken. Goat. Uh... Pig—""Yuck," I mumbled.He snickered. "What about fish?""Don't even," I snarled. He let out a chuckle before pulling out another one. "I guess you'll like this."I watched as he emptied the crimson juice into a glass and handed it to me.Sniffing the glass, I let out a sigh. "It's Cow." I sniffed again. "And it's a week old."He nodded. "Do you prefer I mix it with the horse?"My brows furrowed. That was all I needed to do to ge

Chapter: Chapter Three: Another Search Alessia's POV A wave of silence washed over us as the words left Luca's lips.Slowly, my lips curved into a smirk.Luca's eyes widened in shock. "I know that look, Donna! Don't you dare go in there! Don't you—argh!" Before he could complete his words, I kicked him in the shin and ran towards the bar.If Salvatore's third in command was here, then he could lead me to Salvatore—the devil himself. That would be like hitting a jackpot. And I—I wanted in on thatI pulled out a black shade and a black nose mask from my bag. Putting them on, I pushed through the bouncers. They already knew me, so they didn't bother stopping me.The club wasn't packed—not like usual. I guess not everyone was as bold as me.I looked around, searching for Salvatore's man. It was hard to tell who he would be since everyone was putting on black and black. But then, a figure caught my eye. Not just one, but two.They were seated at the far end of the VIP lounge, with masks covering the lower part of their faces.
