What begins as a chance encounter soon turns into a passionate and dangerous relationship. As Lena and Vincenzo grow closer, she is captivated by his dangerous allure but equally aware of the risks. The deeper she falls, the more she realizes that Vincenzo embodies the very darkness she seeks to understand—and fears.

Chapter: Bonus chapter Somewhere in an undisclosed location, an older looking man dressed in a dirty looking Italian suit sits in the darkness, the only source of light came from a dim light bulb that flickered on and off every so often, Casting odd shadows on the man.His brown hair was slicked back in a classic Italian mob boss fashion. A lit cigarette hung between his ringed finger and lips as he took a slow deliberate drag of it. Like nothing in the world really mattered right now. He was alone here.Just him and the new found information he just acquired. Pieces of papers with odd scribbling were scattered before him, and with it, pictures of multiple people. A small family of four. Two boys, a girl, and an older woman. Each of them had names written above their heads.The woman was Deborah Rosa Hart, she had a small smile on her face, soft wrinkles craved her cheeks as she smiled. She had on a long floral dress that accentuated her lean figure despite her age. And her shor

Chapter: Chapter 111CHAPTER 111Next was my mother. I couldn’t thank Vincenzo enough for what he’d done for my family. For my mother. Because of him, she’s able to be present for the most important day of my life. And boy did she embarrass me. Tales from when I was much younger, and stubborn.“Mommy…” I hide my face behind my hand when she told them about the time I tried to jump over our neighbor's fence but got caught by my underwear. Vincenzo leaned in to me.“I see you’ve always been a trouble maker.” he teased.“It was a phase. I’m much calmer now.” I huffed.“You are?” his tone was of mock shock, and I shot him a playful glare.“Above all else. I’m glad my baby’s found someone worthy of her fire,” my mother says, and the crowd cheered and laughed. At least she was right about that.There was a lot of dancing after that emotional segment of the reception with everyone sharing their own words of encouragement to us.Old and young took to the dance floor, guided by

Chapter: chapter 110110“So did you guys finally decide on a name for your kid yet?” Jasmine asked, her cheeks rosy from the alcohol. She and Luke were wearing matching red accents, it was cute.I looked back at Vincenzo who was off speaking with some rather important looking men. The only one I could recognize was Kalvin Derrida. Glad Vincenzo didn’t kill him.When he caught me staring, his raised his glass in a small congratulatory toast, and I smiled before tuning back to Jasmine and Luke.“We’re still scoring the list.” I say with a smile.“Well, don’t take too long. Before you know it, the nine months will be up and you’d be stuck with a name like Bellamy…” she joked. Luke gave her a mock offence look.“I happen to like the name, thank you very much.” he puffed his chest proudly. “More over, I think Jasmine Anita Bellamy has a nice ring to it. Don’t you think so, Len?” his hand snaked around her waist as he tugged her closer, stilling a kiss, and I witnessed with my own eyes how my best friend becam

Chapter: 109CHAPTER 109The grand cathedral stood tall, bathed in the soft golden glow of the late afternoon sun. White and red roses lined the aisle. Petals scattered like snow on the crimson carpet that stretched from the open doors to the altar.Red.What was once a symbol of power, seduction, and danger, now a symbol our love, passion and strength. It encapsulates everything we’ve been through so far. A reminder of how it all started. For the fire that brought Vincenzo and I together.Outside, there was a fleet of cars, bodyguard lining the perimeter with practiced vigilance. Dante had insisted on extra security on this special day. The king of New York's underworld was getting married today, so yeah, It was a pretty big deal.I wanted something simple of course, but you know Vincenzo, he wanted something grand. To let everyone know that he was getting married to the love of his life.His words, not mine.And thanks to Lorenzo’s hard work, the Karnak brothers had

Chapter: 108Chapter 108Everyone prayed silently in their hearts that Vincenzo came out of this alive. Even Dante De Rossi Maranzano, Vincenzo father was anxious. He and his first son never got along, part of this was because of how strict he had been when it came to training him to take over, but the other part was because Vincenzo believe he let their mother die and did nothing about it.Vincenzo resented his father for years, and their relationship only continued to plummet when he made his political agenda known. It looked like he was just trying to move on with his life and forget his dead wife, but the truth was, Dante never forgot her, how could he forget the only woman he ever loved? Monica, her smile still haunted him, and her death had done things to him, made him do things he regretted, and that entailed pushing his own children away, but this was because he didn’t want them to see how weak he had become. He saw now, that that was a mistake.He should have been a better f

Chapter: 107“Lorenzo!” she grabbed my arm, and I stopped. The look in her eyes were compelling, and I sighed. Deciding to take it slow.“How can I sleep knowning Vincenzo is here?” she said, her voice hoarse.“Here,sit.” I guided her to one of the many empty seats in the waiting area, and she sighed. “I’ve been having these…nightmares about Vincenzo. I just wanted to see him…that’s why I took Stefano's car.” she paused. I blinked slowly at her words. She stole Stefano’s car?“Please don’t be mad.” she quickly added. I bet she thought I’d get upset. Actually, it made me laugh a little.“I’m not mad.” I said with a small smile on my face. “But you shouldn’t be doing reckless things like that, you know.Especially now that your carrying my brother’s kid in you.” my tone was softer now, but stern, and she avoided my gaze a bit. “You know you could have waited till it was morning.”“I don’t think I would have made it to…” she smiled weakly. “What about you?”“What about m

Chapter: 7070 The cabin appeared through the trees like something out of a postcard--all dark wood and wide windows, nestled right at the edge of the lake. The water stretched as far as my eyes could see, and in the mid-morning sun, it shone like the polished glass surface of a skyscraper. “We’re here,” Silas announced, killing the engine. I sat up from where I’d been dozing against Kyler’s duffel bag, blinking the sleep from my eyes. “Already?” “You’ve been out like a log,” Kyler said, turning to me with a grin. “Drooled on my damn bag too.” “No I did not--” I wiped at my mouth just to be sure. And it was dry. “Asshole.” “Made you check though.” I don’t drool, by the way. Never. Silas was already out of the car, stretching his arms over his head. I watched the way his shirt rode up slightly, revealing a strip of that perfectly carved V-line and toned stomach. A smile tugged at my lips as heat curled in my low belly. Focus. We piled out, and I took a deep calming breath. The air smelle

Chapter: 69The drive to Kyler’s place took twenty minutes through early Friday morning traffic. He was already waiting outside when we pulled up, guitar case slung over his back and a single duffel bag at his feet. “Finally,” he said as he tossed his stuff into the back seat then yanked open the front door and I stared at him suspiciously. “No.” “Yes.” “I called shotgun already!” “But I’m older. Taking it to the back, Princess.” Before I could protest, his arms were around my waist and he was tugging me out of the car and into the backseat while Silas watched him harass me with a smirk. “Damn it, Kyl.” I kicked the back of his seat with a huff. “Don’t hate the player, brat.” he snickered. “Plus, what took you guys so long? I’ve been standing here for like ten minutes.” “We’re early,” Silas said mildly. “Exactly. Plus why didn’t you just stay at the main house instead?” I asked. Now, Silas and Uncle Alec fighting isn’t really a new thing, but last year before Easter, it got really ba

Chapter: 68LOUISA Now, let’s recap my weekend. Monday started pretty standard for me. Class. Tests. All that. Tuesday should have followed the same standard, except I got a text from my best friend saying my ex was a pedo. Then I went to meet the twins. We watched a movie, we fucked, then I came back home and Baba brought up “the talk” Wednesday through Thursday were pretty much filler days, but now, being Friday, I found myself speaking to Ayla over the phone. I rushed down my stairs at 6am in the morning with luggage in my hand. Apparently, the twins planned a weekend at the cabin for us and didn’t think to tell me until last night. I barely had enough time to pack. I loved travelling, but I always took too long to pack,k and one thing about me. Whether it was a month's vacation or a couple of days I did not pack light. I bet it was Kyler who told Silas not to tell me about it till the last minute. Tsk. “Yeah, it’s just this weekend,.” I said over the phone to Alya. “Yeah. Hah, I’ll te

Chapter: 67The door opened and my father stepped inside, still dressed in his work clothes minus the jacket. His tie was loosened, and the sleeves were rolled up well past his elbow. And despite the obvious fatigue in his eyes, he had a warm smile that made me smile back. “Working late?” he asked, nodding towards my laptop. “It’s just school work.” I shut the laptop and kept it in my side drawer before pivoting to the edge of the bed like a cat. “I just submitted it.” “Ah.” his smile stretched. “Cutting it close I see.” “Maybe a little.” I patted the space beside so he could come sit with me. “Did you need something?” I looked at my time again, Baba was usually in bed before 11pm and woke up by 6am so he always got a full 8 hours of sleep. I wish I could be half as disciplined as he was. “I wanted to talk to you about something,” he said, his expression turning more serious and my stomach twisted slightly. What could he possibly want to talk about that couldn’t wait till in the morning?

Chapter: 6666 Alec Konstantino retreated to his office, closing the heavy oak door behind him with a soft click that echoed through the hallway. Meanwhile, just a few moments after Louisa had left, Silas walked back into the house with a warm feeling in his chest. He could still feel the warmth of her kiss on his lips, her sweet essence still clung to him. With a quiet sigh, he made his way upstairs, back to the rec room. And Kyler was exactly where he’d expected to find him--sprawled on the couch with a fresh beer sitting on the table in front of him and a controller in his hand. The massive TV screen showed Bayonetta 3, and he was dispatching demons with impossible acrobatic grace that didn’t match the laid-back expression on his face. The sharp sound of gunfire and blades slashing filled the room thanks to the surround sound system. “You know you can’t avoid him forever, right?” Silas said, leaning against the door frame. Kyler didn’t as much as glance up from the screen. “Who said

Chapter: 65LOUISAI came over for Netflix, but ended up in bed with the Twins. Not like I’m complaining or anything.The shower had been…eventful again. Kyler couldn’t keep his hands to himself, and well, Silas had me pinned against the tile for another round that left my legs shaking.And I couldn’t be happier. It was my dream come true. The three of us are finally together and not just me sneaking around being with both of them. By the time we finally got out of the shower, I was exhausted in the best way possible.And just like that, we were all back in the rec room. I grabbed my phone from where I’d left it on the couch and my stomach dropped.“Shit!” I scrolled through my notifications. “Shit! Shit! Shit!”“What’s wrong?” Silas asked as he began to pick up bottles and empty snack wraps. He was such a neat freak. And a freak freak.“My research paper! I completely forgot about it.” I started gathering my things frantically as I noted the time. It was 5pm. “
