Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHTNOT TODAYRAVEN’S POV“Wait, what? I thought she left.”That was all I could say standing there at the window looking at her on the ground outside because nothing else made sense. I had watched Laura walk out that door and I had let her go and now she was out there with a bullet through her chest and today had already been so full of things I couldn’t process that my brain was genuinely struggling to add one more.I ran outside before Nicole could say anything and dropped beside Laura and my eyes couldn’t make sense of what they were seeing, her chest heaving slightly, blood spreading through her shirt, eyes closed, the men who had been standing around her nowhere to be found already.“Help.” My voice came out small so I made it louder. “Help me please, somebody help me, my sister, my stepsister, she’s been shot, please help her, if you don’t help her I won’t have anyone left except Nicole, please somebody help.”I kept screaming it into the street and my voice kept breaking and I did

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY SEVENNOT AGAINRAVEN’S POVApril got slammed by a car and I saw it happen from the doorway and my whole body froze for a second before I could even process what my eyes were showing me. Nicole was already moving toward the door before I could stop her and I grabbed her arm and held it because she was not going out there, not when I didn’t know what was still happening on that street.“Let me go, someone needs help out there.”“Nicole, stop.”“Raven she’s right there, I can see her from here, just let me…”“You are not well. Please for your sanity, for everything, just stay here. I’ll handle it.”She looked at me like I was the one being unreasonable and tried to push past me and I planted myself in front of that door and did not move because I had already almost lost her once this week and I was not doing that again, not for anything.“Handle it how? She saved you from those people. Why can’t we help her the same way?”“We can’t help Nicole.”“What do you mean we can’t help, what does that

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY SIXFREE BIRDAPRIL’S POVI watched them disappear up the stairs together and stood there in the middle of that living room trying to make sense of the fact that I had just seen Laura again, in the flesh, after three years of telling myself I was over it, after three years of building a whole new version of my life around the idea that she was just a chapter I had closed and moved past, and yet the moment I saw her face across that room something in my chest did the thing it was never supposed to do again.She had changed though. Same face, same body, but something in her eyes was different now, harder and colder and more deliberate, like life had pressed down on her for a long time and she had decided to press back just as hard. The Laura I knew used to laugh with her whole body and say exactly what she felt the second she felt it. This version of her was calculated and I didn’t know what to do with that.Funny how people shift on you when you’re not looking.I grabbed my bag from the co

Chapter: CHAPTER THRITY FIVEPART LIE, PART TRUTH.Daniel’s Pov“What the—“ my voice came out barely a whisper. My heart thudded at the sight of everything around me. Ashes left and right, an ash-like smoke coming from the back of the house. That was when I saw her…Standing a few inches close to Nicole. I expected panic, I expected fear and surrender. For some reason, I saw quite the opposite.So I stood and watched her caress her hair. Raven was still giving Nicole those goggly eyes. It made my skin prickle. I just wanted to jump in there and separate them. I knew I fucked up in the past… but nothing hurts more than knowing your own girlfriend back then left you for a woman and not a man. I mean, it’s not like I can bear it being a man but a WOMAN?? Hell to the fuck no. My eyes still wandered around her house as I quietly approached the front door until I spotted her. April. And suddenly I felt goosebumps all over, my body felt super uneasy and I didn’t know when it came but at the speed of light I rememb

Chapter: CHAPTER THRITY-FOURAM I CRAY CRAY??Daniel’s Pov“Uncle Joe, I’m heading out..” my voice cut through the roof from where I stood. I was already dressed up ready to leave the house despite the stack of work I have to do before evening. I grabbed my keys from the table and headed for the door.“Where are you going?” Uncle Joe called.“Out.”I didn’t wait for another question. I pulled the door shut behind me harder than necessary.I guess for some reason, I can’t seem to focus on anything. My mind keeps moving back to Raven. All I know now is Raven. I shoved my hands into my pockets and kept walking.When I breathe.. I see Raven. When I laugh, she pops up in my heart. I guess, if I can’t see her then I have to go over to her house to meet her. Gosh, I can’t believe how much I love her and it’s scary because it feels like I can’t do anything without her by my side.It was ridiculous how quickly she had become the center of everything.My mind keeps wandering to her well being. Is she good? Has she eate

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY-THREEWHAT NOW DANIEL?NICOLE’S POV“Why is it that anytime we are this close to having a moment, something must interrupt us? Urgh!!!” My voice was loud and I made sure even the dogs barking outside could hear it. Heaven knows I’m fed up as fuck. Like, why is it when I finally gather the courage to be myself? Then boom..disrupted.I didn’t know when my legs started moving like they had a mind of their own.Then I felt her hand on my shoulder. “Relax Nicole.” She spoke in a charming, soft voice. Her eyes spoke volumes to me and it made my heart flutter so much.“Hey, look here.” She turned my shoulder slightly and cupped my two cheeks in her sweet soft palms. I didn’t know how my heart instantly skipped a beat. It felt like the world suddenly stopped for us and only us. “I don’t care if we’re having a zombie attack or an alien invasion or heck a bo*b attack. No matter what happens, we will always be together… I’ll make sure of it.” Her tone was perfect and gentle which made my ears giggl

TEMPTED BY MY STEP-BROTHER, SCREWED BY THE BILLIONAIRE
Wives are to be claimed, whores are for fucking. But me? I’m to be PLEASURED.
~~~
Chelsea Stone signed the contract expecting a cold and dead marriage. Instead she found herself collared by Dominic Hartwell – a man whose rules were written in silk restraints, leather belts, and the low growl of full command.
He bound her wrists above her head and taught her that silence was no longer armor; it was foreplay. He spread her wide open on silk sheets and edged her for hours with fingers, tongue, and the thick head of his veiny cock until she was dripping, shaking, and sobbing “Please, big daddy… I’ll be good.” Only then did he drive into her deep and relentless, one hand tight around her throat, the other spanking her ass while he fucked her into shattering, screaming release.
Chelsea was never meant to stay broken though, because in the darkness between punishments and praise, she began to crave more than surrender. She wanted to test him, to push and whisper filthy things against his ear while she rode his thigh, soaked and trembling: “I want to be your little cunt who shows big daddy who’s really boss.”
Dominic’s eyes darkened with dangerous promise every time she dared. The more he punished her with a be*t across her, cock down her throat until tears ran down her cheeks, hands pinning her down while he claimed every inch of her. The more she burned to flip their power while he owned her body.
Yet as old enemies sharpened their knives and forbidden pasts, pain and pleasure blurred until Chelsea no longer knew where submission ended and rebellion began.
Would she kneel forever… OR would the quiet wife finally make her ruthless husband beg?

Chapter: CHAPTER TENTHE GAME HE PLAYSDOMINIC'S POV“You’re quick to anger, Chelsea.” My voice lowered, cracking slightly as I leaned closer and twirled her hair around my finger. Her eyes blinked rapidly, darting elsewhere. I pressed myself against her, feeling the heat of her body. “I only wanted to know why my wife is here instead of enjoying the luxury of the house.”She scoffed as though I’d said the stupidest thing known to mankind.“Luxury?” She glared hard at me, forcing herself to meet my gaze. “What kind of person abandons his newlywed wife to f*ck other women and allows that woman to disturb her every single day while her husband goes out drinking and comes home late?”My jaw clenched, killing all the words I wanted to say. Though the reason I was doing this was to get more information out of her, I had already realized she was harder and smarter than she looked.“She’s a past fling,” I whispered, holding her waist, my fingers sinking into her soft flesh.She hissed sharply, her face twisting

Chapter: CHAPTER NINE THE FILE ON THE TABLEDOMINIC'S POVBzzz... Bzzz...Why the heck was he calling me, now?Richard rarely called twice. When he did, someone usually ended up regretting it.I stared at the flashing screen on my desk until it stopped ringing. Ten seconds later, it started ringing again.Marcus looked up from the chair opposite mine and smirked. "You gonna answer that, or should I?"I looked at him uninterested. "I'd rather jump out the window."He's shrugged. "Well, the fourth floor won't actually kill you.""Hahaha. Funny."He laughed, leaning back comfortably while I finally picked up the phone."Father.""Come to my office." His deep and arrogant voice irritated my eardrum. No greeting. No explanation. Not like I needed one or was expecting any, I was used to it. The line went dead.Marcus whistled. "I don't know what's colder, your office AC or your family.""I'll l

Chapter: CHAPTER EIGHTTHE NAME ON THE PAPERCHELSEA'S POVI woke up alone in a bed that smelled like expensive cologne and betrayal. Great combo, honestly. Ten out of ten, would recommend to nobody.I stared at the fake stars on the ceiling for a solid two minutes before I remembered I still hadn't asked him about them. Wasn't gonna give him the satisfaction. He probably wanted me to gasp and clutch my chest like some Disney princess. Not today, Satan.My stomach growled loud enough to embarrass me in an empty room, which honestly takes talent. I sat up, dragged myself out of the ridiculous lingerie situation and threw on an oversized shirt instead. If breakfast wasn't coming to me I guess I had to go find it myself.A soft knock hit the door before I even got my hair sorted."Miss Chelsea? Breakfast." A woman's voice, warm, careful in a way I wasn't used to. I opened the door and found a tray balanced on the arm of a woman probably in her fifties, dark hair pulled back neat, eyes that actually looked at m

Chapter: CHAPTER SEVENYES BIG DADDYDOMINIC'S POVShe answered the door still dressed. I looked her over once and felt something in my chest. Not only was she pretty… she was the kind of fine that made a man want to be completely unreasonable about it. I’d known that since the wedding but standing this close? God. I kept my face completely blank. She didn’t need to know any of that. At least, not now.“I can see you’re ready for the night my love.” I walked inside and looked her up and down. “Hm.”“What?” She answered in a rush.I didn’t respond. I walked past her. “I spent a lot of money on that lingerie.”“Nobody asked you to. Besides, you shouldn’t make it sound like you’re doing me a favour by getting undies for your own selfish sexual desires.”“You’re right .” I turned around and looked at her. Her hair was slightly messy and it made her look even more beautiful. God, she’s fine. “You okay?” I asked. She blinked multiple times. I held my chuckle because clearly, she wasn’t expecting that. “I’m fine

Chapter: CHAPTER SIXTHE MURDERCHELSEA’S POV“Ma’am are you okay?” The police officer asked in concern. “Uhm, what?” I responded in a confused tone due to the fact that I was trying to process everything happening all at once. One minute I was on the floor seated in front of Nadia, the next minute a guest died at my own wedding ceremony. Who could have done this? I thought to myself, trying to put the pieces together in order to solve this puzzle. I scanned the environment and noticed something strange. That’s when I saw him. Standing at the far edge of the crowd, still and unbothered while everyone around him panicked.“No, no it can’t be.” I uttered with fear trying so hard not to drench myself in sweat.I hopped down from the ambulance and was about walking straight ahead to meet this familiar stranger.“Ma’am, we’re sorry but we need to make sure that you’re okay.” Some paramedic members stated. “No, you don’t understand. I need to—“ They kept blocking the way. Everywhere suddenly became crowded.I

Chapter: CHAPTER FIVESCREW YOU, NADIACHELSEA’S POV“Oh if it isn’t lady saddintown” Nadia said as she walked across the hall to approach me. I rolled my eyes at her and continued on with what I was doing. “Ignoring me now, bitch?” She said in annoyance. I really don’t need this from anyone. Especially her. After everything that has transpired between us, she still has the nerve to show her face here. Gosh, I better go before another drama stirs up.As I was about to walk away, I felt an arm pull me backwards. The nails felt sharp and deep. I winced in pain and looked back only to see Chloe. Weird, I was expecting Nadia’s arm on me but instead it’s her. “No matter what happens, I’ll ALWAYS make sure your life is a living bloody hell.” She uttered in a low voice. Lips squeezed and facial expressions mixed with anger and something I can’t quite place my mind on yet.I jerked my shoulders off from her palms and walked away. “I just need to stay far away from everyone.” The guests, the guards, my husband.

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTYTHE BROTHER WHO WAITSSOFIA POVThe knock came soft and measured, nothing like the urgent pounding we'd grown used to over the past weeks, and something about that careful restraint put me on edge before I'd even seen who stood on the other side of the door.Nikolai checked the window first, gun already drawn, and whatever he saw made him frown in confusion rather than alarm."Unfamiliar face," he said quietly. "Alone. No visible weapons. Says he's family.""Family," I repeated, exchanging a glance with Katya, who had gone very still beside me."Open it," Alessio said, positioning himself near the door, tense and ready despite the stranger's apparent lack of threat.The man who stepped through wore his charm like a well tailored suit, every bit as polished and deliberate. He was older than Dimitri by a few years, silver threading through dark hair in a way that suggested distinguished age rather than weariness, and his smile arrived a

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY EIGHTBLOOD ABOVE BLOODSOFIA POVI found Katya in the kitchen of the safehouse, staring into a cup of coffee she clearly wasn't drinking, and something about the way her shoulders curled inward told me she already knew why I'd come looking for her."Katya." I kept my voice level even though my hands were shaking. "I need you to tell me what Pakhan means. Right now. No more half answers."Her eyes flicked up to mine, and for the first time since I'd met her, the sharp confidence she always wore like armor cracked wide open, fear bleeding through in a way that frightened me more than anything Stefan or Dimitri had said so far."Sit down," she said quietly."I don't want to sit down. I want an answer.""Sofia, please." Her voice shook slightly. "Just sit down."Something in her tone made me obey, sliding into the chair across from her, my heart already hammering with dread before she'd said a single word."It's our grandfather," she finally said, the words coming out flat and heavy, like she'

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY SEVENPAKHANALESSIO POVGianna's monitor was still screaming in my head long after we left the hospital, the word she'd forced out through her pain following me into the car like something alive, crawling under my skin and refusing to settle.Pakhan.I had heard the word before, years ago, passed quietly between older men in rooms I wasn't technically supposed to be in, always spoken carefully, like saying it too loud might summon something nobody wanted summoned. I never asked what it meant back then. I was young, focused on my own war, blind to anything that didn't involve Luca Vecchio's name.I was paying attention now."Start making calls," I told Nikolai the moment we got back to the safehouse, already pulling out my own phone, scrolling through contacts I hadn't touched in years. "Every old contact who might know something. I don't care what it costs us.""On it." Nikolai's face was grim, already dialing before he finished speaking.

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY SIXTHE NAME SHE SAIDGIANNA POVThe ceiling tiles blurred and sharpened and blurred again, and I kept trying to count them just to have something steady to hold onto while my mind drifted in and out of the fog the medication wrapped around me.Pain lived somewhere in my shoulder, dull now instead of the white hot agony I remembered from the warehouse floor, but my thoughts felt loose and slippery, fragments sliding past before I could grab hold of them properly. I remembered rope cutting into my wrists. I remembered the smell of rust and cold concrete. I remembered Luca's voice, low and urgent, pacing somewhere near the back of that room while he thought nobody was paying attention.I had been paying attention.I always paid attention, even scared out of my mind, even with my hands tied behind a chair and my heart slamming so hard I thought it might give out before anyone ever got the chance to hurt me.Luca had been on the phone.The me

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY FIVEHIS WORDSSOFIA POV"You don't get to make that decision for me."The words came out sharper than I meant them to, but I didn't take them back. The car was still moving, streetlights sliding across Alessio's bruised face in slow strips of gold and dark, and his hand was still wrapped around mine from the moment he'd said it."Sofia, I just watched men with your father's insignia drag me into a locked room and chain me to a pipe." His voice stayed low, controlled, but I could hear the strain underneath it. "I'm not saying this out of control. I'm saying it because I almost died tonight because of people connected to him.""I know what happened tonight." My throat tightened around the words. "I was there. I'm the one who found you.""Then you understand why I can't just stand by while you keep opening doors to a man who has already proven he'll use you, use Gianna, use anyone, to get what he wants.""He's still my father." I pulled my hand free of his, needing the space even in that cra

Chapter: CHAPTER TWENTY FOURTHE ROOM BEHIND THE DOORSOFIA POVThe arm around my throat tightened, cutting off my air for a half second, and something in me stopped thinking and started reacting.I drove my elbow back hard into the masked figure's ribs, the same way I had watched Nikolai train with his men on nights I wasn't supposed to be watching at all. The grip loosened just enough. I stomped down on their foot, twisted free of the arm, and spun to face them with my knife already out of my jacket before my mind caught up with what my body had just done.The figure staggered back, clearly surprised, and I didn't waste the opening. I lunged, blade slashing across their forearm, and they hissed in pain and stumbled further away, giving me the one thing I needed most.Distance.I didn't stay to finish the fight. I spun toward the door and slammed my palm against the handle, shoving it open with everything I had left in me."Alessio."He was slumped against the far wall, wrists chained to a pipe above his head, o
