Chapter: Chapter 118: Watching through cameras My uncle jumps at the threat, and I slip away while he and Enzo start going back and forth over the inheritance and him threatening them all. I sit in my room with Father's right-hand who is now mine? Outside the door. When I pull out my laptop, I connect it to the cameras in the study, but Enzo isn't there. I switch to three other cameras before finding him in the living room with guards. My sisters are in the room too and they're positioned where the hidden microphones are so I can hear them better than I can Enzo, Sergio and Igor.“I will be on high alert,” Sergio says. “They’ll have to get through us before they touch her, Capo.”“I would hope so,” Enzo says, nodding at both of them. “I will be back tomorrow before my flight.”Flight? Where the hell is he going, I hacked his computer and his schedule says nothing about any flights. When he turns to leave that's when I notice the commotion on the other side of the living room where my sisters have been whispering. “No, you ta

Chapter: Chapter 117: The plot thickens “You—” “I don't need this, I don't want this but if I did? I would be great at it. Better than some of you and your beards,” I roll my eyes. Father showed me the ins and outs of this world, Dedushka showed me how to build it while Father made sure I knew how to burn it with a single flame. “Sasha,” Luna warns me too late. There's a knock at the door, and I don't know how long it's been there but when the door opens, it reveals Yana. “What are you doing here?” Mother snaps. “Don't yell at Yana, she's my guest here.” I glare, she can bully me yes, that's fine but I don't want her doing the same to Yana too. “Tell me, what happened?” “Mr Valenti,” she swallows. “The Capo, not the Don. He is here to see you.” “Tell him I'm not home,” I smile. “He knows you're here, he insists that you see him or he won't leave.” “Tell him I'm unavailable,” I tell her, and she nods, leaving the room after nodding. “That is what you should be doing,” Uncle Vito says. “Running a household n

Chapter: Chapter 116: “Pray I let you keep your head”The video starts to play once again, “I know it must surprising that I name my killer my heir but nobody cares more for this family than Sasha, she will be the next Don and will possess seventy five per cent of my wealth, the rest is to be shared among my other chidren and relatives..” he trails off on an unspoken thought. “Alessandra is entitled to everything I was, and no, I was not threatened into this will, I made this will knowing she was coming to end me, I wanted her to,” he says, and I replay the event so much in my head that it makes no sense anymore. “My dear, my Sasha, my favourite son and daughter? I forgive you,” he says, and then he leans back in his seat and takes a drink, watching us until the screen goes black. “Favourite?” Dante frowns. “Come on,” Reina laughs. “Everyone knew she was his favourite, let's be shocked about the rest of his words.” “That’s bullshit,” snaps Uncle Vito, pushing back from the long table so hard his chair screeches across the marble.

Chapter: Chapter 115: The WillAlessandra Father died a week ago, we buried him three days ago and I was going to leave after the burial because people started talking, they started to wonder why I was still here and not in my own house. My pick was Russia, I was going to spend a few days there then relocate to a small island but Mr Corazon, Father's lawyer insisted that I be present for the reading of his will, it was one of his orders to him. I already know who is going to get everything and who gets what because I was here when we drafted his will, so why do I need to sit down and watch my brothers gloat about their new inheritance to my uncles? “Good morning, Sasha.” Ma Constantia greets, me as soon as she sees me enter the kitchen. I look at my Mother and her daughter-in-law, who are in the kitchen, too. Dante has moved in already. “Good morning, Ma Constantia,” I grin. How are you?” “Come here, eat breakfast,” she says ushering me over to the kitchen island. She comes over every day now, I tried to

Chapter: Chapter 114: Take Care Of HerLuna Death truly does bring out a lot of pretentious love. Today, I've seen multiple of Father's friends show praise to him in multiple ways they wouldn't have dared to had he been alive. While others have openly hit on his wife, and not only the widowed ones. The Russian side of the family hardly made an appearance and by that I mean Dedushka ordered some flowers that said “it's about time” Yep, that's how much he detested Dante Romano Sr. I'm taking a walk around the house with my nephew because he wouldn't stop fussing while his mother played the part of a grieving daughter-in-law, and I spot Enzo. His family left four hours ago but he's still here, and so is his cousin, the lethal one. “Luna,” Alessio calls out just as I'm about to make a turn to avert running into them. I wave but he watches me like I'm crazy, and so does Capo. “Come here,” Renata's husband calls out. “How is she?” Enzo instantly asks. “She's alright,” I swallow. “Has she slept at all?” “Not real

Chapter: Chapter 113: The Funeral“What are you doing here?” Mother snaps at him, but he's not looking at her, he's looking at me and I'm trying so hard not to look at him. Enzo smiles, “I came to see my wife,” he says, his gaze drifting to his mother. “And I'm sorry to disappoint you mother-in-law, but there will be no other women in our marriage. Unless we raise daughters.” “You want to procreate with her?” Dante scoffs, staring at me like I'm not worth the idea itself. “She killed her father, and she will do the same to you because she only cares about herself. The only thing Sasha finds fascinating is killing people.” “That's good,” Enzo nods, “Even I like murder a lot.” “Why is he even here?” Luca asks, deathly glaring at Enzo. “Is he not the reason…” “Again with that question?” Enzo sighs, motioning to me. “Do you people not see my wife standing here?” “You need to leave,” Luca says. “Or we will send you out in a body bag.” “Why would you want your sister widowed?” He shoots back, he's awfully cha

Ryan's eyes flash with horror, his gaze flickering between Knox and I. “Thalia no.”
“Yes.” I blink through my tears. “Let me do what he didn't have the guts to do five years ago, what I should have done to us the moment he slammed my head into a wall while I was grieving my daughter!”
“I'm sorry, Thalia.” Knox grabs my hand, but I can't stand to be touched by him. “Don't do this to us, to our-”
“Let me end this Knox.” I choke out and it's the saddest plea I've ever uttered. “I started this obsessive diminishhing game between us so it's right I be the one to end it. Accept my rejection.”

Chapter: Chapter 130: Let's talkTHALIAAmara didn't say much last night, she just wanted to cry and I let her, I let her cry on my shoulder and then we had ice cream for dinner and this morning before we left for work. We had ice cream, too. I'm sitting in my office, scrolling through the messages under Knox's contact. He sent me various pictures throughout the night, of him in the shower, in bed, and the kitchen. He made sure to update me hourly on his activities. But then I've not seen him all morning. We've been in the office for two hours now, and there's still no sight of him. His assistant said he was around somewhere, so I didn't look for him. “Attorney Laurel,” Amara sings as she enters the room, holding two delivery bags.“Yes?” I smile at her, placing my phone down. Attorney Laurel doesn't stare at images of her boyfriend because she misses his face. And right now, I'm Attorney Laurel, not Alpha's pregnant girlfriend.Amara wiggles one of the plastics, “I got you some breakfast.”“You didn't have to,” I

Chapter: Chapter 129: Tell her“Like I said, we have been having issues and when she found out I was hiding some things about River, she got upset.” I lie, sacrificing my dead mate for his conscience. It's already heavy as is and this would only add to that. Knox frowns, “So this is about Ree?” “No that chapter is closed,” I sigh. “And so is that with Amara.” I've moved on from River and I can move on from Amafa too, it's just another phase of life, right? There's a reason River died, I'm not meant to have a mate of someone to share my life with. “If you say so,” Knox nods, his gaze still wary. “Yeah,” I sigh. “Enough about my breakup, what have you done about the Mariella situation?” “I don't know what to do,” he says. “She has started threatening me with the only two things I love.” I raise an eyebrow, not missing out on the opportunity to jest around. “So I take it you mean Thalia and Knox, which means you don't love me?” “I'm serious Ryan,” he sighs, once again sounding helpless.

Or I can make you a snack if you want?” “I'm fine, the babies are fine.” I grin, “And none of us need a snack.” “I need one.” “Yeah?” I grin. “I'll go get it,” I say, lifting but he smashes me back on his cock. “Hmm,” I whimper. I was wrong about him not being hard, I just wasn't positioned right. “Fuck.” “Can

Chapter: Chapter 127: You're My lucky charmTHALIA Something is wrong. Knox has been very different since we came back from the funeral, it's almost like he is the one who lost a friend and not me. I've nearly spent every night in my room because I don't get to interact with him at work and I'm likely developing a dependency case. I'm eating an orange when I realise that I haven't seen Knox in a long time, not since I left him in my bedroom an hour ago when Ryan asked for my help with something. I check his room, his office but I don't find find and yet on my way to Nova's bedroom, I catch a glimpse of Knox sitting in my room, in the same spot where I had left him and he doesn't seem to react when I enter the room again, he's staring at the wall in my room. Nothing is fascinating there, and yet he keeps staring as if it has the cheat code to life written there. “Konx,” I call out but he doesn't hear it so I repeat myself, “Knox Winslow.” “Yes love,” he responds, his gaze finding mine. I pause, love? He hasn't called me

Bella is my little princess and if you let me stay with her? I won't tell Thalia anything but if you don't?” “Are you threatening—” “I'd never!” I feign a gasp, biting down on a smile. “All that I'm saying is I can't control what she hears, also how it is your word against mine, and mine comes with years of loyalty and truth unlike yours.” I hiss, “I can make them both despise you, Alpha Knox.” “You're bluffing.” “Am I?” I raise an eyebrow. If he believes and knows what I did to get us all here then he shouldn't doubt what I will do to keep us here. “Okay, try me then. And even if you did kill me Thalia and Bella will know everything, I will make sure of it even in my death. But they will only believe in my version, not yours

Chapter: Chapter 125 : Everything is as it should beMARIELLA Thalia fucking Laurel! God, I've never hated anyone as much as that stuck-up pretender, I should have let my mother kill her, but I felt that was extreme, that would mess up Alpha Knox but now? I want her dead too. This is what I get for letting her loose and free, she should always be on a tight emotional leash that manipulates her very decision she ruins everything as easily as she gets fooled. She went to a funeral for crying out loud and she brought up the story of her dead daughter? What an attention whore! She should have kept that damn story under wraps just like she has for almost five years now but just like every single time when the attention isn't on her? She turned the tables, had to make Alpha Knox feel pity for her and now she's trying to ruin my life again but I won't let her.

For a while, I thought he attacked you but here you are.” “So you're the reason he found me?” I frown, slightly grateful she decided to tell a stranger I went home mere minutes after I had left the club, digressing from my safety. Alison gasps, “You were with him? Oh my God, Starr, he is so fucking hot!” “Hey!” Kade snaps, glaring at her with unasked jealousy. I can't help but laugh at the irony, “Wait, so you're fine with her stripping naked for men but calling them hot is crossing the line?” “Forget him,” Alison rolls her eyes, hoping into his lap to snuggle him. “Tell me everything!” she squeals, annoying Kade furthermore. “Starr, dish, wh

Chapter: 10“I don't care for girls,” I tell her, offended she would even suggest it. I understand her playing the amnesia game but suggesting I have ever desired another woman makes me furious, she's the only one. Before her, I didn't even know I could feel so deeply, I didn't know I could lose until I lost her. “Oh my bad, women.” she grins sweetly, correcting one mistake with a bigger one. “Not even women, just you.” I tell her, “You're the only woman who has ever caught my attention, the only one I've bothered to drop on my knees for.” “You are not on your knees, you're in bed, sleeping, but you did shoot. Man for me so I'm flattered.” “That so?” I smirk, watching her for a reaction. “I'll shoot plenty more then.” “You're funny,” she rolls her eyes, snorting a laugh. “By the way why do you have a Gun on you?” “For situations like those.” “Ah, I k

My legs are shaking, like they might give out beneath me. “I'm not leaving you alone, you were attacked.” “You shot him.” I gulp, the thought only now sinking in. Nobody has ever shot someone for me, not even my brother. “I'll drop you off at home.” he offers, and I shake my head. “Okay, then you're coming to my hotel with me.” What? His hotel, is he expecting sex as a thank you? I do understand he just saved my life but the sex is too far, who asks for it as a thank you? “I'm not going to touch you,” he says, as if hearing my thoughts. “I'll even book a room for you but I'm not leaving you in the street.” “Okay.” I nod. “You'll tell me your address?” “I'll go with you to the hotel,” I say, I can't put everyone else at risk, but Kade I'm okay with putting at risk. This man had a gun, he could potentially finish the job the other one left unfinished but for some reason, I trust he won't. ADRIAN Someon

I've been getting shit for my name since I was little so I'm unbothered, there's nothing I've not heard before about it. “Of course it is.” I nod, the only other Stars I've met are those in the sky. “How long have you been working here?” he asks, kissing his teeth. “three years,” I instantly reply. He shifts in his head, suddenly more intrigued. “And before that?” “I worked at a club offshore for about three years, and before that, I was a failed ballerina.” I giggle, the memory bittersweet. I loved ballet, I was supposed to be a classical ballet dancer but then my brother fucked up his life, and I fucked mine over trying to save him, after all that, the idiot couldn't even live. “How old are you, Starr?” Mr Moretti asks, stealing me from my memories. “Twenty-seven, " I blurt out, shocking myself.
