Vengeance Brought Me To His Bed
Adele thought the worst day of her life was burying her husband—until the Mafia came to collect the twenty million dollars he left behind. They didn’t just want money. They took her kidney, broke her leg, scarred her face, and left her for dead.
Six months later, Adele discovered the cruelest betrayal of all: her husband, Eric, was still alive… and expecting a child with his mistress. When she threatened to expose him, he killed her.
But death wasn’t the end.
Adele woke up in the past, with one burning vow: this time, she would not be the victim. This time, she would make Eric pay.
Her revenge plan was flawless until a new devil entered the game.
Angel Dragovich.
The ruthless head of House Dragovich—dangerous, sinfully magnetic, and calculative. He wasn’t part of her story before—so why was he here now?
………
Angel Dragovich doesn’t chase petty debts, but when he sees Adele, he claims her as his own. Her fire awakens something dark in him… something that won’t rest until she bends—or breaks.

Chapter: Chapter 146ADELE'S POV“I do not understand why you've got to be the chief bridesmaid Adele, you should be resting and not roaming around with flowers!” Camilla said in frustration as she made my hair into a tight bun. We were getting late for the wedding and that was because of me, I woke up a bit too late and no one certainly was willing to disturb the wife of their boss despite the occasion of the day.“Not so tight, my head's gonna explode!” I said to Camila, gently freeing my hair of its tight grip, she certainly had gotten extremely tired of me and my demands, but that only was the beginning, we would be playing the bridesmaids role together.“Excuse me, why am I here again?I do not even know the bride!” She added in a bit of frustration.&

Chapter: Chapter 145ERIC'S POV“I do not deserve this, none of this!” I yelled out, clenching my fist tightly as I stared towards Adele. I had tried my best, I had begged her to the best of my abilities but she certainly wasn't willing to help. I felt cheated and mostly humiliated, no way I was supposed to be locked down in here, if only I was able to run off before Angels men arrived at my house. If only they had waited for at least 10 minutes, I certainly would have been long gone.I had hurried over to my place to get a few of my things before i left town, i certainly wasn't expecting sergio to die so easily, he had assured me to sit back and watch him take over from Angel which i had excitedly done, i felt kidnapping Adele would work just fine this time around considering Angel was madly in love with her, all I had to do was give Sergio the advice which he thought useful and then sit back and watch

Chapter: Chapter 144I woke up with the most horrific headache one could ever think of. I laid on the bed most of the night, although I couldn't sleep. I watched Angel hover around in the room dozing off at a not so regular interval. For a moment, I thought of sitting up and letting him know he needed to sleep considering I was okay, but that only meant making him worried. He was gonna worry more about why I wasn't asleep. I watched him come closer, tuck me into the duvet and kiss on my forehead, not once, nor twice. I felt so lucky to have him around.A part of me still couldn't wrap my head around the fact I was in love with this mafia boss, the same one I swore I wouldn't rest until I saw his end. The same one whose presence gave me shivers, not due to love but fear, but now I found myself only being scared of losing him. I now was accustomed to his life, I actually had learnt to love him for who he was and whatever he did. I tried to bru

Chapter: Chapter 143ANGEL'S POV I waited for Joe's arrival at my office desk after calling for him earlier. He took a little while before he arrived and I would have been pissed about that, but decided not to. I rested my head into the chair, swinging back and forth and trying so hard not to doze off, but then my door creaked open.“Go get Eric!” I simply said not bothering to lift up my head. I had handled the big frys and was gonna leave the rest to Joe. “Alive!” I added. “Sure thing boss!” The door slammed closed after a short while and I laid still, my mind distant. I had given Yuri lots of privileges, majorly because I feared if I had hurt him Adele wouldn't be cool with that, but he lost it all when he took the hands of Sergio, when he decided to work against my clan. He certainly had some nerves considering how pitiful he had looked from the beginning, I never would have assumed he would do a thing of that extreme. First I let him be even though I was quite aware he walked hand in hand with Yur

Chapter: Chapter 142ANGEL'S POV The street leading to the Moretti's home was a bit crowded as a crowd of excited looking clan members hovered around in the street, I guess it was some form of celebration. The Mafia's overall power had shifted into their hands so it was a good thing they decided on some sort of celebration, quite sure they hadn't realized they was no boss taking over my position, I needed to finish up whoever may be next in line or whoever may think to take over from Sergio, no one dared take away my property. The gates were wide open and I drove straight in. I picked my guns up and didn't bother hiding any of them as I walked straight into the building. I paused looking back towards the direction where the sound of music buzzed out loudly, it seemed to be at the back or maybe their garden section. I took out a cigarette from my pocket and lit it on as I walked further towards the crowd, only a few cared to cast a glance my way, they all seemed carried away with the party. My eyes met wi

Chapter: Chapter 141ANGEL'S POV I laid on the ground, my heart pounding rapidly and my eyes almost fell off from its socket in disbelief. I had just watched Adele do the unthinkable, I didn't want to believe and I guess she also didn't want to as we both threw glances at each other. My whole body was sore but I managed to pull myself up sitting as I still stared at the dead bodies laying right on the ground. Adele flung the gun out from her hand into the ground as she screamed out, her voice trembling, her heaves coming out loudly. She rubbed her palm continuously on her dress like it would erase the fact she had just shot three people. I painfully got up on my feet as I walked towards her, she had moved a few feet backwards and her back was now pressed against the balcony.“I just shot three fucking people!” She said the moment I was in front of her. Her eyes were bloodshot, no form of emotion in them and I couldn't tell what that meant. I swiftly lowered myself down to the ground sitting my ass right

Chapter: Chapter 119Hello guys, so the last chapter was supposed to be an author's note. I'm not really familiar with the author's center interface, so please bear with me. So, guys, I understand that I haven't uploaded any chapters for over two months, and that's because of my health. I'm really really sorry about that, but my health is not entirely under my control. I had to rush the story even though I had a lot planned out(walking you guys through on how Claire was caught, and what happened with Alfredo and his family). I just had to wrap it up because I feel it's long overdue. I know many of you must have forgotten about one or two details regarding the story, but for every single one of you that sticked to the end, I'm super grateful 🙏🏽. This is actually my first story, and the love you guys showed me was immense. Thank you so very much, and God bless you all. I hope to see your support whenever I come up with a new story. Kindly leave your honest reviews and criticism, on the general comment

Chapter: Chapter 118Alpha Farrell's POV Two Months Later. It's been two whole month since I found out that Gabriella and I were mates, and all the saga that led us to this moment. Alfredo has been stripped off his position as Alpha, and his family exiled from the Pack, they're basically rogues with nothing but scraps to feed on. Princess Sheila on the other hand, was given a more milde punishment. Lockhart was still under Nightshade's while she served as an omega in the Packhouse. This was the mildest punishment we could give her, since it was with her help I was able to locate Alfredo after he secretly changed the location where he held Gabriella and the boys. The first phone call I had received was from her. But Alfredo found out she was tipping me off, and used her to lure me into a trap. Where he used those rogues who attacked us to secretly inject us with wolfsbane, making us weak and powerless. Princess Sheila still came to the rescue, soon after Alfredo came to gloat while I was chained,

Chapter: Chapter 117Melissa’s POV One month later.The gown in front of me was sparkling, casting glittering lights from its reflection as the helpers helped me don it.“It’s pretty, mummy,” Daemon said with his brother running behind him.The helpers stood at the door, stopping them from reaching me for fear of them ruining it.“Let them in,” I said, waiting for my boys to run into my arms.They came in haste, but mounting their distance, even as curiosity pushed at them to touch my gown.“My wife is going to wear one like this when I get married,” Damian said as he caressed the gown.I threw him a smile, bending as low as my gown would allow me to touch their heads. “Of course she would,” I said as I pinched his cheeks.“Are you ready?”I raised my head to meet Aiden as he stood in front of the room, dressed elegantly, for the matter. “I am.” The answer was no surprise for me as I straightened my gown while Aiden held out his arm for me.“You wouldn’t want to keep the groom waiting for too long,” he s

Chapter: Chapter 116Gabriella’s POV I stood like a display doll in front of the entire Silverrose, as I listened to Alfredo give a glamorous speech to justify why he's an asshole.I can't wait for all this to be over so Alfredo can take me to see my voice. He has done all he can to break me, and since he wasn't succeeding, he stopped so low as using my boys, our kids to threaten me.‘I only want you Mel, we can make more babies,’ he said, holding a knife over Damian. My baby was so scared and called out to me for help but I couldn't do anything. Now in order to keep my kids alive, I'm subjecting myself to an eternity of hell on earth. But I can endure all that, as long as my boys are fine. The look on Farrell's face when I told him I wanted to be with Alfredo broke me every time I thought about it.Alfredo nudged me, which was his cue, telling me to smile. I forced a smile, as Alfredo took another gulp of wine.“You're mine forever now, Mel,” he said, his voice barely above a whisper as he brought out

Chapter: Chapter 115Claire's POVToday makes it exactly four days since I saw Aiden and Alpha Farrell last. From what I was told, they suddenly got into their car and drove off. At first I was worried that maybe, somehow they'd figured out that Gabriella was in Silverrose Pack, but I called Alfredo and he confirmed that they never showed up at his Pack.I didn't take his words for it when he told me, but everywhere has been calm, and there's no way in hell that Alpha Farrell found Gabriella and Alfredo still have his head.“Don't get happy too quickly,” Anya said through the mindlink. “I’ve got a feeling that this is the calm before the storm.”“Yeah right,” I replied, rolling my eyes. “There's no storm coming. If there's one thing, the storm already happened and this is the calm after the storm.”“But–”“Not now, Anya!” I snapped. “Alfredo is going to mark and announce Gabriella as his Luna today, and we’re going to witness that alongside anybody,” I explained. “So, no matter what storms come after this

Chapter: Chapter 114Alpha Farrell's PovHow we arrived at the location in the text was a total blur. The stone walls of the shrines were cracked and filled with overgrown vines.As we stepped towards the entrance of the shrine, the door to the shrine creaked open.“Ah, Alpha Farrell,” Alfredo called out gingerly, spreading his arms wide like he was seeing an old friend. “I must say, I'm disappointed you didn't send an official letter. I would have made your welcome, more… memorable,” he smirked.“Cut the crap, Alfredo!” I snarled, bringing out my claws, as I marched forward, Ora flashing in my eyes. “Where's Gabriella? Where are my boys?”“Your boys?” Alfredo chuckled darkly. “I think you're getting things wrong, Alpha Farrell,” he said, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. “THEY ARE MY BOYS. And as for my MATE, I'm sure she doesn't want to see you.”“Alfredo!” I growled, charging towards him.“Farrell!” Aiden called out to me from behind.“What?!” I snapped irritatedly, turning sharply to face him

Chapter: Chapter 8 2Larissa's POV Claire started crying before we’d even pulled into the hospital parking lot.She’d been fine at breakfast, nibbling pieces of pancake and humming to herself. But the moment Brayden had said the word hospital and Stephanie had made a poorly timed joke about shots, she’d stiffened. By the time we tried loading into the car, she'd already started wailing, determined to fight us every step of the way.“No shot!” She cried, hiccuping between sobs.“You’re not getting a shot.” Stephanie promised, over and over, rocking her gently in the backseat. “It’s just a quick check. No shots.”Claire didn’t believe her. To Claire, hospitals meant needles, and needles meant betrayal. She screamed the whole drive, the sound vibrating through the car that I was surprised our eardrums didn't burst.By the time we arrived at the hospital, she was still wailing and flailing around in Stephanie’s arms in an effort to escape.Inside, the hospital smelled like antiseptic and faint lemon cleaner.

Chapter: Chapter 82Larissa's POV I don’t think I’d ever hated the press more than I did that morning.Even before we reached the courthouse steps, the air was electric with anticipation. Flashes lit up the gray sky like lightning, and reporters shoved their microphones so close that our driver had to honk twice just to inch us forward. But the cameras weren’t on Brayden or me today. Not even on Benjamin.They were here for Claire.The child Benjamin claimed didn’t exist.Stephanie carried her out of the car, holding her firmly against her hip. Claire was dressed in a pale yellow dress with little white shoes, and sunflower-shaped shades. She was too young to know she was at the center of a legal battlefield. But that also meant she wasn't fully aware of what was going on so she was waving at everyone as we made our way up. She thought this was all just some fun parade.Brayden glared at them all like he could set them on fire through sheer force of will. I don't think he had stopped drowning since the

Chapter: Chapter 80Larissa's POV Stephanie strode up with the kind of confidence only she could muster in a courtroom full of people itching to see blood. She swore in, sat, and crossed her legs as though she were on a talk show rather than the witness stand.Benjamin frowned when he saw her; it was barely perceptible, but it was there. In return, Stephanie just smiled sweetly at him.“Ms. Sylvester, how would you describe Mr. Benjamin Patterson?” Carter began.Her lip curled. “Manipulative. Arrogant. The kind of man who believes consequences don’t apply to him. He carried himself like he believed he was better than everyone else. It was exhausting to watch.”“Could you explain that?” Carter asked.“Objection. Leading.” Harrington countered.“Overruled.” Judge Henderson said. “Go ahead and answer the question.”“When Benjamin and Lara started dating, he came to our place a couple of times. It was the house that we had grown up in and we inherited it after our parents passed.” Stephanie explained. “One

Chapter: Chapter 79Larissa’s POV Two days later, I was back in that suffocating courtroom, and the weight in my chest hadn’t lessened. If anything, it had grown heavier.Carter had explained what would happen: today was the defense’s turn. Today, the jury would hear our side, our witnesses. But knowing that didn’t make it easier to sit under the fluorescent lights, knowing I’d soon be the one in the witness box.Carter had told me not to rehearse too much so that I wouldn't sound scripted and fake. But I couldn't help it. How else was I supposed to stay calm and deliver my testimony without stuttering if I didn't practice? I'd paced a hole in the bedroom floor, anxiously going over what I would say until Brayden had dragged me to bed and held me down until I'd fallen asleep in his arms.“Don’t worry. You'll be brilliant.” Stephanie had said as I’d helped her with her hair that morning.It was easy for her to say. She wasn't the murder suspect. And Stephanie had her unadulterated rage for Benjamin to fu

Chapter: Chapter 78Larissa's POV When we got back in, the prosecution had lined up their witnesses, each one neatly typed into a schedule, as though this were just a normal day of business meetings instead of the day my life would be picked apart piece by piece.I smoothed my skirt as we sat back down after the morning formalities. Brayden was beside me, posture sharp and alert. Stephanie sat on my other side, tapping her foot in irritation, already bored out of her mind.The prosecutor — Mr. Harrington, still smug as though this trial were already a victory lap — stood and adjusted his tie. “Your Honor, the State would like to call Officer Daniel Hughes to the stand.”A bailiff led a man forward. He was tall, lean, his uniform crisp even though he wasn’t technically on duty. He raised his right hand, swore the oath, and sat.“Officer Hughes.” Mr. Harrington began, “Can you tell us about the night in question?”The officer nodded with practiced calm. “I was called to the scene following reports of a d

Chapter: chapter 77Larissa's POV The last time I had been in a courthouse, it was for Brayden and I's wedding.The wedding has been more or less a private affair. I hadn't invited any of my friends or family members because they all thought me to be a murderer and wouldn't have come anyway. My dress was long enough to cover my ankle monitor and my veil thick enough to hide my expression from the crowd.So much has changed since then.For one, this wasn't a private affair. Anyone with even the slightest ear for news and/or gossip knew of this trial. So that meant that reporters, vloggers, and randos were stationed at the entrance of the courthouse with their cameras and microphones. Even before we stepped out of the car, there was the noise from the questions being thrown at us, and the multiple flashes from the camera were evident. Some people had scrawled words of encouragement — or otherwise depending on whose side of the story they believed — on placards and cardboards and waved them as we drove by.
