Love is War: But I'd bleed for you
Jeffrey leaned against the door, his eyes locked on Ronald. “Why do you keep looking at me like that?” he asked, his voice low. “Like you’re holding something back.”
Ronald’s stare didn’t waver, “Because I am.”
Jeffrey stepped closer, heat building up between them. “Then stop.”
Ronald’s fingers brushed his jaw, slow and intentional.
“You have no idea what I’d do to you if I let go.”
“I’m not afraid of you,” Jeffrey whispered. “I’m afraid you won’t.”
The tension grew as Ronald’s lips were only a breath away from his.
“Say it,” he said.
Jeffrey didn’t blink. “I want you. I’ve always wanted you.”
That was all it took. Ronald grabbed him by the waist and pulled him in with a wild kiss…

Chapter: Chapter 129: THE ENDSix months after Victoria's death, Ronald found himself standing in front of Jeffrey's favorite restaurant. He'd reserved the entire place for the evening, every detail carefully planned.Inside, candles flickered on every table, and soft music played. Jeffrey walked in, looking confused."What's all this?" he asked."This," Ronald said, taking his hand, "is me trying to do something romantic for once."Jeffrey laughed. "You? Romantic? Are you feeling okay?""Shut up and sit down," Ronald said, but he was smiling.They ate dinner, talking and laughing like they always did. But Ronald was nervous, his hand occasionally moving to his pocket where a small box rested.After dessert, as they were finishing their wine, Ronald stood up."Jeffrey," he began, and his voice was shaking. "We've been through a lot together. Probably more than most couples face in a lifetime.""That's one way to put it," Jeffrey said, smiling."And through all of it, through every crisis and every challenge, you'v

Chapter: Chapter 128: I Forgive YouOne Year LaterThe hospital room was quiet except for the steady beep of monitors. Ronald sat beside Victoria's bed, his expression unreadable.She'd been sick for months, the combination of her injuries and the stress of imprisonment taking their toll. The doctors said she had weeks at most.Connor sat on the other side, holding his mother's hand."I'm glad you came," Connor said to Ronald."She asked to see me," Ronald said. "Despite everything, I couldn't say no."Victoria's eyes opened slowly. "Ronald," she whispered."I'm here," Ronald said."I need... to apologize," Victoria said, each word clearly an effort. "For everything. For the pain I caused... your family.""Why?" Ronald asked. "Why did you do it? The organization, the revenge against my father, all of it?"Victoria closed her eyes for a moment. "Your father... knew what Silver did to me. He could have stopped her. But he chose his wife... over the woman who loved him. Over his son.""Connor," Ronald realized."When I fou

Chapter: Chapter 127: A Big StepThree months later, Ronald walked into his office to find Connor waiting for him."We need to talk," Connor said without preamble.Ronald sighed and set down his briefcase. "About?""About what you're planning to do with my mother's assets. The companies, the properties, all of it."After Victoria's recovery, she'd been arrested and charged with multiple crimes. She was currently awaiting trial, and the legal battle over her organization's assets was ongoing."I haven't decided yet," Ronald said honestly. "It's complicated.""It's my mother's life's work," Connor said. "Whatever else she did, whatever crimes she committed, she built that empire from nothing.""She built it on the backs of people like Kyla," Ronald countered. "People she forced into servitude.""I know that," Connor said, frustration evident in his voice. "Don't you think I know that? But she's still my mother, Ronald. And she did what she did to survive, to protect me.""That doesn't excuse it.""I'm not asking you to

Chapter: Chapter 126: Sounds PerfectTwo weeks later, Ronald stood outside Jeffrey's apartment, his hands full of groceries. He had been coming by every day since Jeffrey got released from the hospital, bringing food, helping with the chores, and making sure he had everything he needed.Jeffrey had been polite but distant, accepting the help but keeping Ronald at arm's length emotionally.Today, Ronald was determined to change that.He knocked on the door and waited.Jeffrey opened it, looking healthier than he had in weeks. The color was back in his face, and he was moving without wincing in pain."You brought more food," Jeffrey observed."You need to eat," Ronald said, pushing past him into the apartment. "I brought ingredients for that pasta you like.""Ronald, you don't have to keep doing this.""I know," Ronald said, unpacking the groceries. "But I want to."Jeffrey sighed and closed the door. "We need to talk."Ronald's heart sank. Those words never meant anything good. "Okay."They sat down in the living room, th

Chapter: Chapter 125: Always Love YouIn the hallway, Kyla was waiting, leaning against the wall with her arms crossed. She looked up when Ronald emerged."How'd it go?" she asked."He needs time," Ronald said, running a hand through his hair. "And I'm going to give it to him. However much he needs.""That's probably smart," Kyla agreed. "Give you both a chance to heal, to process everything that's happened. Trust isn't rebuilt overnight.""What about you?" Ronald asked, focusing on her to distract himself from the ache in his chest. "When are you leaving?""Tomorrow morning," Kyla said, and there was both relief and sadness in her voice. "I've already booked the flight. Paris, Charles de Gaulle. I figured I'd start there, see where life takes me.""Does Jeffrey know?""Not yet. I'll tell him tomorrow morning before I go. I want to say goodbye properly, apologize for everything and not just disappear."Ronald nodded. "He's going to miss you. You are still his family regardless of everything that has happened.""Yeah, I on

Chapter: Chapter 124: Never Give UpThe silence was heavy, weighted with everything unsaid between them. Ronald didn't know where to start, didn't know how to bridge the gap that had opened up."I looked for you," Ronald said finally, the words tumbling out. "For days. I tried calling your phone over and over even though it just rang and rang. I drove myself crazy trying to find you. Especially when it wasn't your body the police had found in the accident."“What?” Jeffrey asked, trying to remember all the pieces.“Don’t worry about all that Jeffrey… you're here now, I'm grateful for that. I'm sorry about everything.”"I know," Jeffrey sighed softly. "I tried calling you too. Before the accident, when I was upset and hurt and needed to hear your voice. There was something important I needed to tell you, but you weren't answering.""I was at Collins's," Ronald admitted, shame coloring his voice. "At that party. I was drunk and stupid and I wasn't thinking clearly about anything.""You were with that guy," Jeffrey said

Chapter: 23Aiden’s heart hammered against his ribs as he stood outside the bathroom door. The sound of running water filled the silence. He knew he should turn around. He knew this was crossing a line. But his hand moved anyway.He pushed the door open.Steam rolled out, thick and warm. And there was Vito.Completely naked under the spray, water cascading down every inch of his powerful body. His back was to Aiden… his broad shoulders flexing, tattoos covering most of his skin like dark stories carved into muscle. Scars crisscrossed his sides and lower back, some old and faded, others fresher. Water traced every ridge, running down the curve of his ass and strong thighs.Vito turned around slowly.Their eyes locked.For a second, neither of them spoke. Vito’s dark hair was wet, plastered to his forehead and neck. His chest rose and fell steadily under the water. Aiden’s gaze dropped before he could stop himself… down the hard planes of Vito’s stomach, following the trail of dark hair lower… unt

Chapter: 22Vito’s hand was still gripping Aiden’s chin when the entire bar seemed to freeze around them. The guards continued their searches, but every eye in the room kept flicking toward the two of them.“Are you hurt?” Vito asked, his voice low but sharp enough to cut through the tension.Aiden swallowed. “It’s not that bad.”Vito didn’t wait for more explanation. His hands moved with purpose, checking Aiden’s arms, his ribs, tilting his head to inspect the small cut on his lip. When his fingers brushed over the deep gash on Aiden’s forearm, Aiden winced.Vito’s jaw tightened. “Get to the car. Now.”“But my shift–”“I said now.”Aiden didn’t argue. He could feel the rage rolling off Vito like heat from a furnace. He turned and headed toward the exit, aware of every stare burning into his back.Vito’s voice rose behind him, cold and commanding as he addressed the security team scattered throughout the club.“All of you. Warehouse. First thing tomorrow morning. Anyone who’s missing better have

Chapter: 21Aiden’s back slammed against the cold brick wall of the alley. The bass from the bar thumped through the walls like a heartbeat, loud enough to drown out everything. He opened his mouth to shout for help, but the sound barely left his throat before it was swallowed by the music.The scarred man laughed. “Go ahead and scream, pretty boy. Nobody’s coming.”The second attacker grabbed Aiden by the front of his shirt and shoved him harder into the wall. Pain exploded in his shoulder as it scraped against the rough bricks.“You think hiding behind Vito makes you untouchable?” the scarred man hissed, pressing the knife against Aiden’s side. “Matteo sends his regards.”Aiden swung wildly, his fist connecting with the man’s jaw. It wasn’t much, but it bought him a second. He tried to run toward the door, but the other guy tackled him from behind. They crashed to the dirty ground together. A boot slammed into his ribs. Another kick landed on his thigh.“Stop– fuck– get off me!” Aiden gasped, s

Chapter: 20The afternoon sun beat down on the old industrial warehouse like it was trying to set the place on fire. Vito stepped out of the SUV alone, no guards, no backup, just the quiet click of his expensive shoes on cracked concrete. He adjusted the cuffs of his black shirt and walked straight toward the side entrance like he owned the building. Two of Matteo’s men posted outside straightened up fast, hands twitching toward their weapons. They recognized him immediately.“He’s inside,” one of them said, voice shaky.Vito didn’t acknowledge them. He pushed the heavy door open and stepped into the dim, dusty space.Matteo was sitting at a folding table in the middle of the open floor, surrounded by five of his guys playing cards and drinking. The second Vito appeared without anyone behind him, Matteo’s face split into a wide, mocking grin.“Ho-ly shit,” Matteo laughed, leaning back in his chair. “Look who decided to show up. Fucking Vito himself, walking in here with no guards? You really go

Chapter: 19Aiden had barely stepped into the lounge when Vito’s voice boomed through the room like thunder.“Where the hell have you been?”Aiden froze mid-step, his stomach tightening. Vito sat sprawled on the big leather couch, legs spread wide, looking every bit like he owned the entire world. Bryan lounged opposite him, one leg crossed over the other, while Bernard stood quietly near the drinks cart.“I… uh… I went to drop Elena,” Aiden said quickly, trying to keep his voice steady.Vito’s brows lifted in that amused, dangerous way that always made Aiden’s skin prickle. “You went to hide her?”Aiden didn’t answer right away. He couldn’t exactly say what he was really thinking… that he didn’t want Elena anywhere near this life, near Vito, near any of this. He just stood there, lips pressed together.Vito leaned forward slightly. “You really think you can hide her from me?”Aiden bit his lip hard before the words slipped out. “It wouldn’t hurt to try.”A low chuckle came from Bryan’s direction

Chapter: 18Gianna shifted the thin strap of her panties to the side, her fingers brushing against Bernard's hard dick. She wrapped her hand around it, feeling the hardness, the heat, the way the veins popped along its length.God, she loved this. Loved the weight of it in her hand, the way it throbbed under her touch.She felt the sticky liquid at the tip and smiled. He wanted this just as much as she did.For a moment, she had the thought to lick it, to take him in her mouth and make him lose his mind. But the way her pussy throbbed, aching and wet, she couldn't wait. She needed to feel him inside her. That very second.She positioned herself above him, rubbing the tip of his dick against her pussy. The sensation made her bite her lip hard, pleasure shooting through her as she felt how wet she already was, how ready.She rubbed him around the hole a few more times, teasing both herself and Bernard, watching his face contort with need."Gianna," he growled, his voice strained. "Stop teasing."Sh
