Chapter 138 RUSSEL ~~~0~~~ I was still seething when I took out my phone, my eyes still locked onto Allesia. She was fidgeting with her dress like a kid who had just been caught stealing. Anger and fear churned inside me all at once as the worst scenarios began to form in my head. What if t
I glanced at Allesia, who gave me a pleading nod, but then I looked at Luca, still feverish and in pain, “And him? He’s going to die if he doesn’t get proper care.” “He’s out of harm’s way already,” Allesia’s mother explained, “There’s no bullet in him, and the bleeding has stopped, which means no
“We’ll stay tonight,” I said, my voice softening a fraction, “But we’re leaving first thing in the morning.” She nodded in relief, “Thank you, I know you don’t want to be here,” I shrugged, “Just like you, your family thinks I can’t protect you,” I breathed the words like it didn’t hurt. “Rus
Chapter 139 RUSSEL ~~~°~~~~ I gripped the steering wheel, my mind a storm of emotions—anger, frustration, and a bewildering sense of loss. How could she be telling me she loved me in the morning and then turn around and say she couldn’t fit into my world by evening? What the hell did that even
I practically rolled my eyes, knowing it would take less than a second to spill their guts at their feet, “Like I said, I’m just a curious passerby,” “Who just happens to be driving a three million dollar worth car in the middle of the night, hovering around a crime scene? You know how that sounds,
I secretly smiled, indeed, Luca could pass as a bloody assassin from a movie, and Allesia’s hair could be difficult to miss, but that wasn’t news I wanted getting to the feds. I already had too much on my hands and I wasn’t looking to add some cops breathing down on my neck to the list. I turned b
Chapter 140 ALLESIA ~~~0~~~ I sat on the front porch, cradling a cup of lukewarm coffee. I was trying to keep my head clear, and it was kinda working, except I wasn’t really letting my mind focus on a particular thought. I sighed as my eyes involuntarily returned to the adjoining street, where
I scoffed, “Isn’t it obvious? This is the wrong time for you to play mediator!” “Why?” she snapped, “I raised you better than throwing a lifetime of happy friendship away and for what? A man?” “Elletra doesn’t think I’m holy enough to be her friend,” I replied, feeling a sting of bitterness. “I

I watched as Vincenzo Mancini stepped down from the private jet. Dressed in a sleek, custom-tailored Italian suit, he took a minute to adjust his tie and cufflinks. The handsome bastard, I thought with a proud grin, ever so cold. It was past 10PM, but Vincenzo had no intentions of staying the nig
I watched her for a moment, marveling at her glow and beauty, which just kept increasing like her bump every day. She looked radiant, even more so with the big swell of her belly showing. Her staff saw me first because they slowly began to disperse; all of them knew how protective I was of my wife
EPILOGUE RUSSEL ~~~0~~~ I stood perfectly still, my thoughts reeling as I waited in the quiet hall of the warehouse. During my absence, Stacy had refused to speak, see, or let anyone touch her. Even Kegan, who was supposed to order a pregnancy test done for her by now, couldn’t do that because
I reached out and touched his face, “I have the perfect man, and I wish to keep everything around us perfect.” After a while, Russel turned to me with a mischievous smile. “You know, we still have some time before we have to go back.” I raised an eyebrow. “What are you suggesting?” He leaned in,
Russel released a shaky breath, his eyes slowly meeting mine. “Nolan killed the fucking detective you went to,” his voice was strained, barely audible. “He wanted to frame me for it, wanted you to hate me, so when that didn't work out, he went to Stacy for help.” “So you took him out.” His hands c
Chapter 165 ALLESIA ~~~°°~~~ Three wonderful weeks on this island, as much as we enjoyed the bliss, we couldn't stay forever. Tomorrow morning, we'll have to return to our life in Sicily. Kegan handled things in Russel’s absence up until the second week, allowing us undivided time to enjoy our h
Everywhere his finger bared, he pressed his lips there. “You’re so fucking gorgeous,” he murmured against my skin, “My wife.” “My husband.” it came out in a low moan, “How did I not know I’ll never be able to move on from you after that first time?” Russel grinned, “You were the most helpless,
