Chapter: 50 SHADES OF PRAY (18)ARYA’S POVMy hands were shaking, but I kept the gun raised.We had intel that the priest might not be who he claimed to be, and as a detective, I had to go undercover to uncover his secrets.Especially after I saw attempted murder on his record.He did not know it yet, but I had overheard their entire conversation.And now, I did not know what to do or how to feel about him anymore.“Put down the gun, Father,” I said as I stepped out of the shadows. “You do not have to do this.”The shocked, betrayed look on his face made my stomach twist.“You lied to me,” he said.His voice sounded calm, but I could hear the anger underneath it.I tightened my hold on the gun. “I was investigating you.”“You slept with me as part of your investigation?”The question hit hard because I no longer had a good answer for it.Matteo gasped in surprise. “He’s the one you’ve been fucking? A priest?”I ignored him and focused on Leonardo.“At first, yes,” I admitted quietly. “But things changed when I got t

Chapter: 50 SHADES OF PRAY (17)LEONARDO’S POVMatteo blinked at me. “What the fuck, Father?”I kept the gun aimed at his chest.The confusion on Matteo’s face slowly faded, replaced by caution as he studied me.“Father,” he repeated slowly, “if this is some kind of joke, now is not the time.”“It’s not a joke.”The wind moved through the empty fields around us, carrying the smell of dirt and dying grass.Matteo glanced at the gun again before looking back at me. “You’re serious.”“Yes.”His jaw tightened. “Why?”I stared at him for a long moment.I had imagined this conversation for years and thought about every possible reaction he could have. Fear was there, but only because of the gun.But aside from that, there was nothing on his face to tell me he knew who I was. He truly did not remember.That made me angrier than the memory itself.He ruined my life and then had the audacity not to remember?I lowered the gun just enough to make the fear disappear from his face, then pulled the trigger.

Chapter: 50 SHADES OF PRAY (16)LEONARDO’S POV I gripped Arya’s waist as she settled down on my cock. “Fucking hell!” A gasp escaped her lips. She lifted her hips and began riding me, completely oblivious to the fact that I had just murdered someone in her living room and gotten rid of the body. And that I planned to murder another person by nightfall. “Leo…” My name spilled from her lips, reminding me that I was more than my duty. That was why I could never stay away from her. I felt human with her. Her hair fell down her back, her breasts bouncing with every move she made as she squeezed harder around me. She felt divine. My hands tightened on her waist as she rode me harder. Her body moved like she was chasing her own pleasure. I watched every expression on her face, hers every shaky breath, and every quiet sound she tried to hold back. “Look at me,” I said. Her eyes lifted to mine immediately. Fuck. She looked ethereal like this. Flushed cheeks, swollen lips, and desire written all over

Chapter: 50 SHADES OF PRAY (15) ARYA’S POV I leaned against my bedroom door, racking my brain for a way to get us out of this mess. I was this close to finally uncovering Father Leonardo’s secret. I couldn’t let that man snitch before I did. Handling this on my own would be easy as pie, but with Leo involved, I couldn’t do too much. Otherwise, he’d figure out I was hiding something. “Think, Arya.” I opened the door and walked down the stairs to find Father Leonardo already questioning him. “You work for the Matteos’ family?” he was asking. The man glared at him. “I’m a staff member in their house. And if I’m missing for too long, they’ll look for me.” I stepped carefully into the living room, keeping my hands close to my chest. Father Leonardo crouched in front of the man, who was tied to the chair like some helpless animal. His usual calm, almost unnerving composure was there, but his eyes—those cold, calculating eyes—were darker than I’d ever seen. My body reacted despite the s

Chapter: 50 SHADES OF PRAY (14)LEONARDO’S POVThe man’s body went down immediately. He didn’t move or even make any sound of pain. A scream escaped Arya, almost bleeding my eardrums. I moved and pressed my palm against her mouth, muffling the sound. “Shush, now. Do you want to draw a crowd?”She shook her head. “Good,” I said, my voice low. “When I move my hand do not scream. Nod if you understand?”She nodded. I moved away from her slowly. When I was a few feet away, she fell to the ground and broke into a sob.I closed my eyes for a second.Of course she did.Most people didn’t react well to seeing someone get hit hard enough to collapse like a sack of grain.I crouched beside the man and checked his pulse. It was still there but slow, a sign that I must have lost my touch. One hit from me would have usually killed him. Behind me, Arya’s quiet sobs filled the room.I rubbed a hand over my face and stood up. “Arya.”She didn’t respond.“Arya,” I repeated more firmly.Her watery eyes lifted to me. “You—you

Chapter: 50 SHADES OF PRAY (13)LEONARDO’S POV “Father—“ Arya started. I ran after him without another word and without waiting to hear what she had to say, my pulse pounding in my ears. The man had already pushed through the doors and was halfway across the courtyard when I caught sight of him again. “Hey!” I called out. He didn’t stop. If anything, he ran faster. Shit. People in the courtyard turned to stare as I moved past them quickly, trying not to make it look like I was chasing someone down like a criminal. “Excuse me,” I said, forcing a calm smile as I brushed past a group of guests. The man reached the gates and nearly collided with one of the guards before rushing out into the street. I stopped just before the gate. Running after him any further would only draw attention. My jaw clenched as I watched him disappear down the road. Perfect. Just perfect. I dragged a hand down my face and took a slow breath, trying to calm the storm building inside my chest.

Chapter: BONUS — AFTER STORY: EPILOGUEGABRIELLE’S POV MONTHS LATER “Yes,” I moaned, arching back against him.“More, Damon.” He pushed my head down into the car seat and kept thrusting into me from behind, harder now. I screamed until my throat felt sore. The car stopped and a knock came on the partition. I stiffened and tried to move my body. Damon held me in place with one hand and moved the other down to rub my clit. “The car is soundproof. Scream louder for me, wife.” Oh, fuck! I gladly obeyed. And he kept up his pace until I came, screaming his name at the top of my lungs. When we finally finished and fixed our clothes, I sat up and realized the car had stopped in front of an unfamiliar building. Damon stepped out of the limo and opened my door for me. “My lady.” The irony of him calling me that after the way he had just fucked me almost made me laugh. My face flushed as I took his hands and came out from the car. He stepped behind me and placed his hands over my eyes. I gasped in surprise. “Where are y

Chapter: BONUS — AFTER STORY 29DAMON’S POVArmed men surrounded us, but I kept my eyes on Antonio.The man beside him smiled. “I was expecting your wife to come alone, based on how she sounded on the phone.”I ignored him, still staring at Antonio.“You,” I said slowly, almost disbelievingly.Antonio gave a small shrug. “I know. You look heartbroken.”Rhys dropped the duffel bags with a loud thud. “Should’ve killed you last night at the party.”Antonio’s mouth curved faintly. “And yet here I am.”My jaw tightened.I remembered the countless nights we spent drinking together with friends and business partners at his club, Eden.The deals, the conversations, and the plans.All bullshit.“You took my children,” I said flatly.Antonio tilted his head. “It wasn’t personal at first.”“At first?” I repeated.He sighed as though I was forcing him to explain something obvious. “You started becoming a problem again. Both of you.”His eyes flicked toward Rhys.“The underworld was finally stabilizing after Rocco died,” he cont

She must be traumatized right now.”“I know,” she responded. “That’s why you need to pull yourself together, for their sake.”Pain twisted inside my chest.“Be strong,” she said. “Children are more resilient than we give

Chapter: BONUS — AFTER STORY 26GABRIELLE’S POV My fingers tightened around the photo. Every trace of exhaustion and sadness vanished instantly. I grabbed the note again and stared at the number beneath the message, my heartbeat turning violent. No. No, this was impossible. Aiden was dead. I watched Damon bury him. Which meant this had to be someone else—or one of his associates. Cold fear crawled up my spine as I looked back at the photo. Lila looked terrified. Aria was crying in Susan’s arms while one of the masked men held a gun against Susan’s head. My children. I couldn’t breathe. Aiden’s mother was beside them, her face streaked with tears. “No,” I said, shaking my head. “This can’t be real.” I looked instinctively toward the bedroom door, my thoughts racing. Damon. I needed Damon. I turned quickly to leave the room, and on my way down, I dialed the number. They answered on the first ring. I lifted the phone to my ear. “Who is this?” A male voice came through. “You called me. Don’t you thi

The Reluctant Mafia Bride
“But you…” he said, looking passionately into her eyes. “You could burn down the entire mafia until it’s nothing but charred rubble, and I would crawl over the embers with glee, so long as I could worship at your feet.”

Chapter: THE ENDONE YEAR LATER Leonardo watched her from the doorway, his arms folded as a soft smile played on his lips. Arya stood by the crib, gently stroking the twins’ hair until their breathing grew soft and even. A new mother in her element — flourishing. But he knew it wasn’t just because they were finally reunited with their babies. No, there was another weight lifted off her shoulders. Andrea’s body had washed ashore the morning after they returned to Italy. Whoever killed him had clearly found no more use for him. But Leonardo still wondered — was it Vito? He stepped forward, his voice low. “It’s been a year since we got back. The kids are happy, safe, and drowning in all the love we could give them. Are you finally ready for us?” Arya turned, eyes locking with his in that way that always made him feel like the only man in the world. “More than anything, Leo. I love our family — but throwing parties, decorating, smiling at guests — that’s not what I want to do with my life.” His smile

Chapter: AT LASTArya placed her thumb against the sharp metal protruding from the mirror’s hidden safe. The prick was sharp and quick, a bead of blood welling up instantly. The metal retracted with a soft mechanical hiss, followed by a deep click as ancient locks gave way. The door of the safe creaked open, revealing what lay inside.Her breath caught.An old, thick book, its leather cover worn but unnaturally strong, sat beside a small, sleek device. The contrast between them — one ancient, the other unnervingly advanced — sent a chill through Arya’s spine.Isabel’s breath hitched. “I thought that was destroyed during the final battle between the Order and the Sisterhood — over fifty years ago.”Arya’s fingers hovered over the objects. “What exactly is it?”Dolores stepped forward, her face grim. “It’s a weapon. That device can override every military system on earth. Nukes, missiles, satellites — you name it. With the right codes, you could trigger wars from this room. The book holds those codes, a

Chapter: WHISPERS OF THE DEADThe silence after Henry’s death was suffocating. Leonardo and Arya stood over his body, blood painting their hands and faces, their breath ragged and uneven. The room was littered with corpses, a battlefield stained with loyalty and betrayal.Ricardo and Roberto had finished off the remaining men, but Isabel barely had a moment to breathe before a rough hand seized her arm.“Let go of me!” Isabel struggled, but the man twisted her arm behind her back, dragging her toward the far end of the room. Leonardo’s gun snapped up, finger curling around the trigger — but before anyone could react, a single, sharp gunshot rang out.The man crumpled at Isabel’s feet, blood pouring from a hole between his eyes.Dolores stood a few feet away, smoke curling from her pistol. Her expression was calm, but her eyes betrayed years of unresolved rage. “No one touches another woman in front of me again.”Isabel stumbled into Arya’s arms, trembling. “It’s over,” Arya whispered. “You’re safe now.”But then A

Chapter: ECSTATIC KILL “You remind me of him…” Andreas’ voice slithered through the tension like a blade through silk. Leonardo didn’t move, didn’t lower his gun. His heart was a hammer against his ribs, but his hand was steady, aimed straight at Andreas’ head. And yet, the Pope only smiled. “Vito. Your grandfather. You have his temper… his instincts.” A pause, measured, deliberate. Then, softer—“His arrogance.” “You were close to him,” Leonardo said. His voice was steady, but inside, something twisted. Andreas smiled. “Closer than you think. He would have been proud of you, Leonardo. If only he were still alive.” Leonardo’s jaw tensed. Andreas had been a ghost from his past, a man he had once admired, a mentor in a strange way. And now, he was standing against him, speaking about his grandfather as if— He didn’t have time to unpack it. Because in the next second, Ricardo’s gun cracked, the shot echoing through the chamber. Leonardo had silently given the signal, and Ricardo took the sh

Chapter: SIRArya could barely believe her ears. None of this made sense. Isabel coming to this town had been a coincidence.Hadn’t it?Her pulse hammered in her ears, drowning out the distant creaks of the ancient walls.“Isabel having Adriana? Her coming here? You’re spewing nonsense,” Arya said, her voice sharper than she intended.Henry smirked. “I am here to ensure my predecessors’ wishes are met. Of course, her coming here wasn’t a coincidence. Neither was Stanley getting her pregnant. We ruined your life in ways that would bring you here. Not that we had to try too hard—Stanley was more than happy to do it and didn’t even come back for his pay.”Isabel gasped, her breath hitching. “Wha—”“I beg you, Isabel.” Henry’s voice turned colder, almost bored. “Don’t speak until you’re spoken to. Now that I’m no longer pretending, I can admit—I never could tolerate you. Always rushing to do the right thing for the church, as if doing good has ever brought you good luck.”Leonardo stepped forward, his

Chapter: A WALK DOWN MEMORY LANEA second of stunned silence stretched between them. Then, as if a trigger had been pulled, everyone moved at once. Ricardo’s hand flew to his gun. Leonardo stepped protectively in front of Arya. Dolores unsheathed a hidden dagger from her belt, while Isabel squared her stance, ready for a fight. Roberto cocked his pistol, finger already on the trigger. But Henry didn’t flinch. Instead, he smiled. And then—the ground shook. A deep, guttural rumble echoed through the underground chamber, vibrating up their legs. Dust rained from the ceiling. The ancient stone beneath their feet groaned, as if something massive had just shifted deep within the earth. For a fraction of a second, everyone hesitated. And that was all Henry needed. A single, sharp whistle left his lips. A sniper’s laser appeared—red and deadly—right over Arya’s forehead. Leonardo’s stomach dropped. “Ah-ah,” Henry tutted, raising a single finger. “You know, I’d really rather not get blood all over these nic

Chapter: CONFESSBIANCA’S POVRoberto Grimani.My brain refused to catch up with my eyes.He stood a few feet behind me, his hands in his coat pockets, and his dark hair slightly damp like he’d been pacing outside for a while. His expression wasn’t soft. It wasn’t hard either.“What the fuck are you here for?” I asked, my eyes narrowing. He didn’t respond immediately. He closed the distance between us and pulled me into a tight hug. I struggled to move out of his grip but he didn’t let me. “Let go, Grimani,” I sneered. He finally pulled away, his eyes on me like he was scared I’d disappear if he blinked. His gaze softened, just for a fraction of a second, before the steel returned.“I came as soon as I heard,” he said quietly, his voice low enough that only I could hear. “I wasn’t going to let anything happen to you.”I scoffed, brushing past him, every part of me burning with hate and resentment for him. “You think showing up now fixes anything? You weren’t here when I needed help.”“I know,” h

They got here in no time. John was dead but Veronica was still barely alive. I shook my head, tugging the blanket tighter around me. “No. Not any that I know of.”He wrote something down in his notes. The nurse asked if I was hurt anywhere else or sexually assaulted and I shook my head. I saw the other paramedics carry Veronica past me on a stretcher. I walked up to them as they pushed her into the ambulance. “Would she be fine?” I asked, concern evident on my face. One of them answered. “We can’t tell yet. She was badly beaten up by that psycho.”I sighed. “I hope she gets better soon. She saved my life. I will owe her for the rest of my life.”The paramedic smiled. “Then pray for her.”I took a step back as the ambulance drove off. I spotted Marilyn from the office a few distances away. She wa

He moved behind me, dragging Veronica’s body behind him. She was probably dead because she wasn’t even responsive. “Turn to the right,” he said. I turned right and saw he had already dug two shallow graves. One for me and one for her. My chest tightened. “Stop,” he said. I paused. “You must be wondering why I dug two graves,” he said, standing in front of me now. “And whatever you're thinking is right. One is for you and the other is for Veronica.”I swallowed. “But I’m not going to kill you yet,” he said, something glimmering in his eyes. “We’re going to be in love forever. This is only here for when you misbehave or try to leave me again.”“John… listen to me,” I said, my throat parched. “I’m not your soulmate. Please just let me go. I won’t inform the police, I swear.”He laughed. “Like hell I will. Now, you have

Chapter: THE WAY ROBERTO’S POV The flight back to Italy felt like hell. I was sat between Vanessa and my uncle Victor. She went on and on about how things used to be between us and how much she missed them. I ignored her. As if that wasn’t hell enough, Uncle Victor was talking about a ship filled with drugs that he wanted me to help smuggle into the country. I exhaled. “No. I’m not doing that. I gave up that life long ago.” “That’s not my concern,” Victor said. “A woman like Bianca who knows her worth won’t take you back. She’s gone and the earlier you accept that, the better for us all.” I swallowed. He was right. Unless I found a way to prove it was either kiss my ex or let her die, she wouldn’t forgive me. “It’s still not happening,” I said. He smiled. “I thought you might say that. So I’m going to remind you what’s at stake. You’ve lost your woman, do you want to loose your sister too?” My hands tightened on the armrests until my knuckles went white.

Chapter: GHOST FROM THE PASTBIANCA’S POV Morning came slower than I would have liked. My eyes were open all night, afraid to be killed in my sleep. But staying awake wasn’t easy either. I replayed the kiss between Rob and Vanessa a thousand times in my head, wondering what could have happened. I was finally ready to give us another chance. A chance he begged for. What happened? The door pushed open and my kidnapper stepped in, dragging a woman behind him. She was bloodied and limp but still alive. She was tied up. He dropped her at my feet like a bag of garbage. “Recognize her now?” he asked. My gaze darted from him to the woman’s face. Blood matted her hair, but when I looked closer, my stomach twisted. It was Veronica, the doctor who invited me to their work bonfire. I raised my eyes to my kidnapper’s face. “What did you do to her?” I whispered. He crouched down, his face still hidden beneath the hood. “You’re the reason she’s this way. You caused it when you accepted her invitation to tha

I wouldn’t be able to hold myself back from doing something stupid if I engaged with her. Victor walked out of the bathroom with a smile on his face. “I heard everything and I must say, I didn’t feel that was just an act.” “You’ve gotten what you wanted. I broke her trust and she’s gone now so what do you want?” I asked. He smirked as he poured wine into the glass on his table. “I want us to celebrate. With her gone, there’s no limit to what you can do. Welcome back, Roberto.” Vanessa poured herself a glass. “Oh, we’re going to have so much fun.” My fist clenched beside me. I broke the last of what we had and now, Bianca was gone. The pain pierced into my chest as realization dawned on me. I’d never be with the woman I love. * * * BIANCA’S POV The man parked by an abandoned
