~~VINCENZO~~

“Are the plants in place?” I asked Luca, my brother and right hand man and he nodded, his pistol fixed in his hands.

We’ve surrounded Fabiano’s mansion, waiting for the right time to strike. He had my little princess in that lecherous urchin infested house of his. He took her away from me… right after putting a bullet in my arm.

Even after a quick medical care, it still hurt like a fresh wound. I should be taking the rest my doctor suggested but I will know no rest until my angel is safe in my arms again. And if he had dared to touch her, I swear by the blood that runs deep in my veins, I will wipe out his entire bloodline.

“We have everything in place. We can go in now, through the back then when we--.”

“Wait.” I said, halting Luca’s plan.

There was a rustling in the bushy gardens we hid in. I peeped just above the overgrown leaves and caught the sight of a familiar green dress.

“Its her!” I whispered, signaling my men to lower their guns. I squatted f

    It was 5:00am in the morning and Vince still wasn’t home. I paced around the room, my mind clouded with thoughts of him. What was he doing now? Was he alright? Did he kill Fabiano? Did I still have to open his safe and get the envelope? What was in the envelope?My mental health was a complete mess. Since the week Toby got missing and I got abducted by Vince, I have had series of mental breakdowns. I was totally visiting my therapist after all this.A hard knock on the door snapped me out of trance. I held my aching head—the result of panicking and restlessness—as I hurried to the door and opened it.“Hey.” It was Vince. He stood at the door, all sweaty with the top two buttons of his shirt undone. His expression was guarded, like he didn't want to display any form of emotion. He looked like he needed a hug.So, I hugged him.“You’re okay.” I said, nibbling on his neck. He picked me up, my legs hooked around him as he led us into the room.“Why aren’t you asleep? You should be asl

    I stood, frozen like an icicle in middle of the room, surprised by the figure in front of me. I hadn’t expected him to be in the house. I had thought he was still in Las Vegas.“I asked you a question, Jessica. What are you doing in here?” Luca’s scowl deepened. “Nothing, I was just…” My words trailed off as I was unable to finish that sentence.“You shouldn’t be in here. Only Vince comes in here.” He said, dangerously to me, “Leave now.” He ordered, his eyes were so cold, like he was warning me.I glanced at the safe and then at him. I wondered if he knew what I was searching for in here.“Don’t tell Vince.” I pleaded in a small voice before I scurried out.Hours later, I was still in Vince’s room, staring blankly at the TV. My focus was away from the soap opera I had been watching as my mind drifted off to the scary possibility of Luca telling his brother about catching me in the safe room.The door suddenly opened and Vince entered. He was back.“Vince? Is everything alrigh

    He was shirtless, standing in the middle of the room with his muscular back to me. I felt like I was having a panic attack, my nostrils dragging for air like there was limited oxygen. I was silent, waiting for him to say something, anything and when he did, it was an order. "Kneel." He growled, his voice deep like still waters. I didn't even know when I fell to my knees, hands placed on my thighs. I was wearing a big grey t shirt that covered my lacy maroon panties. "We can both agree that I've been patient with your indecisiveness and emotional outbursts." His voice was harsh but I could tell it wasn't from anger. He was in Daddy mode. "Yes." I rasped. "Good." He nodded, curtly. "So you understand why I have to do this." His eyes were hard as rocks. Beautiful rocks. I nodded, biting my lip. "I'm sorry.." I said, "Daddy." I added in a hush tone. "Don't you worry little pet, you'll be sorry when I'm done with you." He took the two steps he needed to get directly in

    I was still in disbelief, staring at Vincenzo like it would bring me out of this surreal moment. Never would I have thought he would do something like this, relinquishing power and handing it over to me on a platter of gold."Jessie? Are you okay?" He touched my face and that was when the tears gathered in my eyes streamed down."You're letting me go?" I sobbed.With a smolder, he pulled me into his arms. "Yes." He rasped. "If I want to have you, it has to be all of you. I know you're unstable, forcefully sunk into my world and seeing you cry.. tears me apart."I wanted to say it, right there and then. I wanted to confess that I loved him. It was right on the tip of my tongue but... I couldn't.I swallowed down those words because I knew better. I knew better than to mention the world 'Love' to someone like Vince."Thank you." I whispered, holding him tight. He said nothing in reply, only the hard beating of his heart filled my ears.Vince took me back to my apartment in a black ferra

    Not again. I was locked up inside Fabiano's disgusting pit, but this time, I was tied to a wooden chair. The room was darker, giving me a scarier feeling than before. I struggled to loosen the thick woven rope tied around me but it was of no use. I couldn't even move. "Jessica Reese. The woman after the king's heart." Fabiano entered with two of his men. All in black clothes as usual. I was so terrified, tied and alone with them. They stared at me like a prey, a weak helpless prey. Where was Vince? Did he know I was captured? Or did Fabiano have him too? "I thought you were smart." He said, his cigar dangling in the corner of his thin lips. His upper lip was covered entirely by his overgrown moustache. "And I thought you knew I'd never betray him." I glared at him. "Why? Is his dick that good?" He laughed, took his cigar out of his mouth and threw it to the ground before putting it off with his shoe. "I'm not giving you any information about him or help you steal anythi

    There was a commotion around me, like soldiers marching and shooting guns in the air as hot as a sauna. Was this hell? It had to be.I opened my eyes to a blurry huge man above me. Blink by blink, my vision cleared and I gasped out, life filling my lungs again."Vince?" I moaned, my body too heavy for me to lift."Cara! Cara! Look at me!" He shook me by the shoulders, his eyes widely fixed on me and not the turmoil happening around us."What happened? I thought..." I thought I was dead. How was he here? What was happening?"Get up! We have to go now," He pulled me up and lifted me onto his good shoulder.I covered my ears and shut my eyes to the violence before me. Vince ducked and ran fast, trying to get me to safety.He approached Luca who was shooting from the corner of a garden fence. "Get her to the car now!" He bawled at Luca, dumping me on him before rushing back to the shooting.Luca wasted no time in picking me up like I weighed nothing and headed for the car. "Put me down

    ~~LUCA~~ It rained heavily after I got home--well, Vince's home--from the hospital. He had suggested I stayed with him for a while until I got better and the whole la familia fight was settled. After finishing up a much needed smoke in the bar, I headed back to my room but my steps were halted by someone at the door. "Vince," I whispered, moving back. He stood by the door, staring directly into my eyes. I knew what he was going to say, his jaws were clenched, his eyes narrowed in anger. "Why did you jump in front of the bullet?" He asked in a growl. I knew it. I sighed, looking away. What was I to say now? "You mean why did I save the girl you practically declared a Sparare a vista for?" I frowned. "This isn't about me, Luca," He took a step towards me and I took a step backwards. "What the hell are you on about?" I asked like I didn't know. "You have eyes for her." And there it was, the dark truth. "Don't. Don't do this." I shook my head at him. "Tell me I'm lyi

    I was wet. So wet from my kiss with Luca. Who knew he felt that way about me? In fact, how did we started developing these strange and overwhelming feelings for each other? I had left his room distorted and horny, now, l was alone on my bed, thinking all sorts of erotic allusion. It was raining heavily outside and Vince still wasn't home. I needed to find relief by any means because my whole body was vibrating with lust. So, I got to work with my fingers. I rubbed myself for many minutes but I couldn't find relief. I needed something real, something more than the fuzzy scenarios I was making up in my mind. Luckily, the door clicked open and Vince's large body came into view. "Can't leave you alone for ten minutes without you touching what's mine," He growled, sending sparks down to my buzzing core. I snatched my hand from between my thighs and twisted on the bed, still trying to find relief. "I missed you," I said, half truth. The other truth was that I missed his brother

He was gone, and I was still fucking here—stalking her like a fucking predator. And now, I got a slap right in the face—she fucked someone else. In his damn car.How I held myself from blowing out his brain the second he got into his penthouse was a mystery to me.

I hated to do whatever it took to keep her safe and happy.And now, I was right behind the entrance to her living room. I came in through the back, minutes after her sister and her husband left for date night.I needed to see her.

    There was a white Porsche parked in Joyce's driveway. It had a huge red ribbon on it, some pink balloons and a bouquet of roses."What. The. Hell?" Joyce stood, arms folded in bewilderment.I was stunned, watching my birthday gift like it would disappear in a moment. I caught sight of the card hung in the screen. I picked it up and untied the tiny pink ribbon on it.It read:HAPPY BIRTHDAY MI AMORE— VOf course, it was him.Who else would it be?I remembered telling him I wanted my first car to be a white Porsche, and now that I had recently gotten my driver's license, it was the best gift ever!"We need to talk, Jessica," Joyce finally spoke after minutes of watching me fawn all over my new car.She was worried, and she had a good reason to be."Talk about what?" I took the flowers, heading back into the house. She was right behind me."Everything! This Vincenzo guy! I thought you were drunk and joking last night!" she said.I had dreaded this conversation, but it was long overdue."

    Life changed so much. No drama. No danger. No pleasure. Just back to my old self. I moved in with Joyce, after a series of back and forth with her. My mom had also threatened to kill herself if I didn't. Everywhere I went, there was a tall man in all black and dark shades following me. I wasn't worried about that; I knew he was one of Vince's men. I had just three weeks left in college, and I had to make the most of it, but I was waist-deep in heartbreak, struggling to get by every day. I wanted to quit, but quitting was for losers, and I wasn't one. Life changed... but it continued. "Guess whose birthday is coming up soon?" Penny sing-sang, suddenly appearing behind me. I was getting some books from the library before heading home. "Oh, Penny, you still remember my birthday?" I groaned, not really enthusiastic about celebrating anything. "Of course! April 18th, 1999. Could never forget my favorite girl's birthday." She hugged me, and when I squeaked, she jumped off of me. "H

    My eyes fluttered open to the sight of a cannula taped to my arm. I felt numb, my heart beating too slowly--like I was barely alive.I shifted slightly, and pain seared through my side, making me wince. That’s when the mattress dipped beside me and I felt someone sat next to me.“Cara,” came a gruff voice.I felt the strong, veiny arms next to me, trailing up to broad biceps and then--“Luca,” I whispered. My mouth was dry as sand.His lips twitched slightly and I noticed a cut there--actually, several cuts. His face was all battered and bruised.“What happened to you?” I asked. He looked like he’d just crawled out of hell.“I don’t have much time,” he rasped, shaking his head. His eyes, those big, tormented blue eyes, were filled with agony.“What do you mean?” My voice was hoarse, too weak.“When I was five, my father burned me with a hot rod...” His voice cracked. My brows drew together, confused by his sudden words.He lifted his shirt, revealing a dark, twisted mark on his side.

    I was sat on Fabiano's thick, sweaty thighs against my will. He had a gun pressed to my lower back, tracing slow, mocking circles with its cold tip.I couldn’t even cry. I was paralyzed with fear.Luca stood by the window, watching like a robot with no emotions. He wasn't going to help me. Vince still hadn't found me.I was really fucked this time.“Isn’t she pretty, Luca?” Fabiano said suddenly, shattering the suffocating silence.He blew a stream of hot cigar smoke across my bare arm, making me shiver.“You do know Vince is probably scouring the earth for her right now, right?” Luca’s eyes were locked on Fabiano like a hawk’s—unwavering.Fabiano hummed. Then he leaned in to place a soft kiss on my nape. I squirmed as goosebumps rippled across my skin.“Of course. She means the universe to him. But he knows better than to be reckless. Otherwise, I'll—” He made a clicking sound with his tongue as he lifted the barrel against my neck.Luca sprang forward. “I’d die before I let you harm

    I gasped, breath filling my lungs as I regained consciousness.I was on a soft bed, a four-poster pink bed. I looked around and noticed I was in a bright room. Nice furniture, white curtains. The air was fresh and citrusy. It reminded me of home.“Cara?” a familiar voice called from the direction of the door.It was half open, dark curly hair peering in.“Luca?” I squinted. He stepped inside, a glass of water in his hand. He was in a clean white shirt and black sweatpants. He looked like any nice, handsome guy.An image of him staring down at me as I went unconscious flashed through my mind.He drugged me!“What is this!? What’s happening?” I scurried out of the bed. I staggered a little as my head ached and my vision blurred.“Calm down, Cara—” He reached for me.“Don’t...” I stopped him. I could barely stand; I felt all weak. My head was spinning, so I had to sit on the chair behind me. “What did you do to me?”“I helped you,” he nodded. His eyes were strangely so different—like som

    ~~LUCA~~They were back together.Imagine that. I was right at the corner of her apartment, watching them in his car for more than an hour. I wondered if they had sex. I couldn’t see because the windows were tinted.Also, he spent the night. He actually slept over. For the first time, I thought of hurting my brother.The next morning, I waited outside her classroom door, needing—no, craving—a conversation we should’ve had long ago.As the students poured out, I braced myself for the sight of her.“Luca,” she gasped when she saw me, startled like she’d seen a ghost.She looked so pure. So virginal in that soft white dress. Vince bought that dress. I knew his taste—classy and expensive.“You don’t reply to my calls or texts anymore,” I said, my voice tight.I tried hiding all the hurt I felt from last night.“School. It’s just school. Too many classes,” she replied, breathless.“Not Vince?” I asked, eyeing her. I wished she would just tell the truth.“What? No! I…” Her voice faded.I wa

    Darren had wanted another date before I left—quite hurriedly—Penny's home, but I wasn’t prepared for that. I thought we were moving too fast and needed to slow down.I needed to move on from the trauma of being with Vince before starting fresh with anyone.But instead of moving on, I missed him. I missed him so much, and I hated myself for that.Seeing Vince cry was always jarring, and that heartbreaking mental image was plastered in my memory.God, I wanted to see him again. I needed to see him again.Once in my apartment, I changed into the pink fluffy PJs he got me and took a cute selfie. I posted it on my Insta story with the caption: 'Feeling lonely', hoping the thirsty men in my followers would stay off and that a certain someone would get the message.It didn’t take a minute before he viewed it—he’d been stalking my socials since we fought. It made me feel a little mushy.Some hours later, as I was finishing up a write-up on my laptop, I heard the roaring of a car downstairs. D

    ~~VINCENZO~~ It had been exactly two weeks, three days, and twelve hours since I cried like a fucking kid in front of a girl a decade younger than I was. I hadn’t even cried when my father was shot before my very eyes. I hadn’t cried when my mother cut me off from her life. I hadn’t cried when my late wife left me for another man—and everyone branded me her killer. But this tiny woman, this little brat, made me spill tears. How fucked up was that? All the hurtful words she said to me that night were still burned into my heart, branded onto my soul. Every night, I had nightmares about it. I missed her terribly—more than I was bold enough to admit. And soon, that longing turned into something else--I began to stalk her. I stalked her socials, tracked her day-to-day schedule and routine. She visited the library every Tuesday and Thursday immediately after her last class. She ate cereal before going to bed on Fridays. She applied lip gloss just before getting on the bus--she ha
