Claimed by the ruthless Mafia king
When her father’s gambling debt skyrockets beyond repayment, Zack De Santis the city’s most feared mafia king makes one demand: Emma.
No negotiation. No refusal. Zack doesn’t ask; he takes. And no one says no to him. No one!
Cold, calculating, and lethally possessive, Zack has one unbreakable rule: never fall in love. Emma is meant to be payment, a possession, nothing more.
But Emma isn’t the docile prize he expected.
Defiant and sharp-witted despite her fears, she meets his ice with fire, chipping away his carefully built walls around a heart long frozen by betrayal and violence.
As their forced arrangement ignites into something dangerously addictive, a rival family closes in, hungry for Zack’s throne and ready to use Emma as the perfect leverage to break him.
Now Zack faces the choice he swore he’d never make. To either keep his heart locked away and let the rules stand, or unleash every ounce of his ruthless power to protect the woman who has become his obsession, his weakness, his everything.

Chapter: 5. Before midnight[Emma]The next day came faster than I wanted it to, and with it came an unsettling feeling inside me. It was pointless to worry about the feeling when I knew just where it had sprung up from.I reluctantly placed my feet on the floor, and pulled myself out of the bed. I didn't feel up to starting my day, but it was going to be my last day in the house that I had always known as home, and I had no intention of spending it laying on the bed.I shrugged off the thought of saying a short prayer, and headed for the bathroom instead. What was the point of praying when my fate had already been decided, and I could already see what will become of me?Water ran in the bathroom after I turned it on, but it was unexpectedly cold, numbing my hands for a few seconds.I left the bathroom for the kitchen, not to fix breakfast for myself or for my dad, but for a tour, one last tour around the house.The house which had always provided me with warmth, and a deep sense of safety didn't feel the same t

Chapter: He wants you[Emma]The sound of my father's footsteps downstairs was wrong. Too slow, too uneven. Like each step cost him something he couldn’t afford to lose. It was past midnight. Even though he’d told me not to wait up, I waited anyway. Curled on the sofa with the lamp turned low, pretending to read the same page over and over while my ears strained for the gate, for his key, for anything that would announce his arrival, that would tell me that he was still very much alive.When the front door finally clicked open downstairs, I exhaled so hard that I felt a sudden sharpness in my chest.I sprang up and hurried down the stairs with my bare feet silent on the wood. Halfway down the stairs, I slowed when I realized that he wasn’t coming up. He’d stopped somewhere below, and I couldn't help the scary thoughts that found their way into my head.What if he was wounded, or dead even? What if his body was only delivered, and soaked with his own blood?A cold shiver ran through my spine, and halted my

Chapter: Ruthless Zack (2)[Zack]She swallowed hard, eyes darting like a trapped animal. My gaze narrowed with annoyance flickering hot behind my ribs. But she was quick to switch to a frantic nod instead. Fear has a way of rewriting decisions in seconds, and I relished watching it happen.Another knock came at the door. Subtle, but sharper this time. Urgent. I glanced at the Graff on my wrist. The diamonds caught the low light and threw it back mockingly. Past time. Way past, but it didn't really matter.The poker game downstairs wouldn't start without me.But how the fuck did I run out of time without noticing? Time slips when you're buried balls-deep in something that bleeds and cries so prettily.I let my eyes slide down her body again. Not to her face. To the raw, freshly ruined place between her legs. Still open. Still dripping. Traces of her virgin blood smeared across pale thighs and the ruined leather sofa. The dildo dangled forgotten in my hand—thick, ridged, promising more damage than my cock ever

Chapter: Ruthless Zack[Zack]The fragile little thing pinned beneath me whimpered almost pitifully. Almost. The sound was thin and wet against the leather sofa in my office. I had her exactly where and how I wanted. Her wrists were crushed in one of my hands above her head, her red skirt shoved up around her waist like a cheap flag of surrender. Her blouse was already in tatters, buttons scattered across the floor, pale breasts heaving with every terrified breath. Smooth skin, probably untouched skin…until now.I hooked two fingers into the waistband of her white panties and ripped them away in one quick motion. The fabric tore with a sharp, satisfying sound that echoed in the quiet room. She started crying immediately. Soft, choking sobs that she tried to swallow down. Smart. She knew begging would only make me hurt her worse. But the tears kept coming anyway, loud enough to feed the part of me that needed to hear them, but quiet enough not to piss me off.I forced her legs wider with my knees, the sofa

Chapter: The call[Emma]“I win.”I grinned as I flipped my cards next to my father's while another small pot slid my way. My dad’s shoulders slumped in that exaggerated way he does when he’s pretending to be crushed.“You should be grateful I let you win,” he said, forcing a smile. I rolled my eyes but said nothing.“How do you even do it?” he asked, though we both knew the answer.“Easy. I assume you’ve got the nuts every time, so I play tighter.” I shrugged. He used to crush me at this table. But that was before the debts piled up, and he became so easily distracted, and often absentminded.I wished I could fix it. I wished poker winnings were real money instead of backyard bragging rights.He stared past the cards, his forehead creased in that permanent worry line. I hated how often I saw it now.“Come on, one more,” I teased, nudging the deck. “Let me humiliate you properly before the day’s over.”That got a real laugh out of him, small but genuine. Pride flickered behind the fake pout. “Can’t bel

Chapter: 90. manipulated (2)[Declan]Nanisca's question pointed out the loose end in my well tailored appearance. I cared about Avira, but it wasn't obvious, at least not to anyone else. I looked around the room for a few seconds, to minimize the impact of her seduction. The sash was beside the bed, and the pair of scissors was beside it. I should probably make a run for it, and severe it, thereby severing the pact I was foolish enough to enter into with her.I looked away from it quickly when the thought that Nanisca could follow my gaze, and see the sash came to my mind, and I made the mistake of looking not just at Nanisca, but at her legs which were spread wide apart.Her pussy was dripping now, and making my dick throb. Focusing on her face when I knew that there was a sweetness just below her abdomen was impossible, so I stopped trying, and gave in to looking at her pussy instead."Let's talk about the bitch some other time. Come have a taste of thi

Chapter: 89. manipulated[Declan]Nanisca was not in the kitchen when I got there, and she was not in her bedroom either. None of the others knew her whereabouts so they could not provide me with any information.But there was something strange about her bedroom which now was well furnished to befit a princess. There was only one explanation, just one, and it was not good.The realization that was beginning to set in was dangerous, and I didn't want it to be true. Servants do not get a raise unless…No! It can't be! I said in my head as I stepped away from the full length mirror in her bedroom which was the same as Dylan's and mine, to the queen sized bed. I was turning over the expensive jewelry on her dresser with disgust when she walked in. She headed straight for her laundry box, and took off her gloves and cloak without paying me any attention."What are you doing, snooping around my stuff?" She asked with feigned annoyance."Wha

Chapter: 88. Why did you do it?[Avira]Everything happened in a flash. Declan grabbing me roughly by my arm, and questioning me really quickly. If I didn't know him well, I would have thought he had broken into a panic. But he was Declan. He never panicked, and if he did, it wouldn't be because of me. He left just then, after telling me to stay here, like there was some place else I could be.Now left alone with the food scattered on the floor, and the dead ants around it, I let out a deep fearful sigh. Although I was attacked a few days ago, and I was scared, this was a much more direct and deadly attempt to terminate my life. But why?I mean, what offence did I commit, and to whom? I couldn't stop thinking of what would have happened if Declan had not gotten me really angry enough to crash both the table, and the dishes on it. I couldn't stop thinking about what would have happened if I had taken a bite.I slowly eased onto the bed when I felt my knees grow weak, but I could not for the life of me stop looking

Chapter: 87. Shocked[Declan]I watched as Avira stormed off into Dylan's bathroom, after crashing the table and the food she was supposed to eat. The first time I saw her, I knew she would be a hard one but never did I envision that she would have so much temper. For days, I have tried to apologize, and it was all to no avail as Avira would not even listen to me, or say anything else. She was right to not forgive me easily or ever but I wouldn't give up asking, or even stop trying.I waited a long time for her with my eyes fixed on the bathroom door which was shut. She must hate me, I thought in my head. I deserve it, and even more, I added, and heaved heavily.The possibility that she might never forgive me laid heavily on my chest, and made me feel nothing but dread. With each passing day, my feelings for her increased, and all I wanted was to bond with her. But she wouldn't hear of it. Although she hadn't said anything to me, I knew how irritated and angry my very presence made her feel. I saw how

Chapter: 86. A second attack [Avira] For days, I watched Dylan go out with the sole aim of finding out who my attackers were, and watched him come back in after many hours with utter disappointment. It was not a pleasant sight, but I was touched that he did all that because of me. He had refuted my initial assumption that he had a lover somewhere in the pack that hated the fact that we shared a room. Of course I did not ask him that, I could not, as that would come too close to jealousy, and even though it was the case with me, I didn't want him or anyone finding out about it. I wouldn't even admit it to myself. Dylan also refused that I moved out of his room, back to the room right across the hall, or to any other room. According to him, the room was a mess, and had housed Thorne for too many days. Also it would be a constant reminder of my struggle against Thorne. As for moving out, he believes, and made me believe that I would be much safer while I'

Chapter: 85. He knows something![Dylan]I sent for Declan at once, and without thinking. The meeting we just concluded with our father was to strengthen our twin bond. At Declan's arrogant insistence, our father had agreed that Avira stayed in the pack, on the condition that Avira does not come between us.Declan followed me from behind without questions, and we headed back to my bedroom, where Avira laid on the bed, beaten. His special smelling ability would be useful now. I told myself as I pushed the door open. Avira was on the bed, just as she was when I left her a few minutes ago. Her eyes became angry when she saw Declan walk in, but I could not help it."Tell me, who else was in this room in the last hour?" I asked, when both Declan's eyes and Avira's held and met. Although the condition for Avira to remain in the pack was that Declan and I live at peace with each other, I still did not feel comfortable knowing how he felt about her."I can't," Declan
