RIP to our good friend, Nolan. 💔
Chapter 159 RUSSEL ~~~°~~~ Nolan was gone, and with him, one more threat to Allesia. The weight of what I had done lingered, but I had no regrets; that motherfucker deserved what he got. If he could kill his friend and then try to frame me out of pure hatred, then he could certainly do worse
I lifted a questioning brow, “She told you that?” Without answering, he walked away, leaving me standing there with a storm of thoughts and questions raging inside me. His confidence and demeanor, his arrogance, that idiot. She was like one edge he had over me. I went to the kitchen, poured mys
I was on the brink of breaking down, my breath was coming in ragged gasps, “So you’re going to run off again, huh?” I turned and banged my bloody fists on the door again, “Because that’s what you always do, right?” I stared down at my blood and rage filled me. I continued pounding on the door, my
Chapter 160 ALLESIA ~~~ °° ~~~ I felt so weak and sluggish, like something had been ripped right out of me, a part of me I could never replace. The weight of the previous night hung heavy on my shoulders like a looming cloud as I moved about the room, fitting my stuff into a single suitcase. W
It was the only thing I had now, the only reminder of him. Nikolai was the only one who knew, and I intended to keep it that way. Russel might try to take this baby from me if he finds out, so I might have to stay as hidden from him as possible. “You have to do this alone,” I reassured myself. °°
Her eyes glinted with malice. “Accidents don’t just happen, Allesia. Your boyfriend killed him.” She sneered. I felt a wave of nausea. “That’s not true! Nolan isn't dead and Russel didn't kill anyone.” “Aww, so sweet.” She rolled her eyes, “Most times you're so fucking clueless! I knew he was dead
Chapter 161 ALLESIA ~~~°°~~~ Jesus, please! The very imagination of those men, taking turns on me made me want to carve my eyes out with my fingernails. And I will, I would rather die than live with this. “You can’t do this!” I declared. “Oh, I can, and I will.“ She gestured towards the men a
Suddenly, the door burst open with a deafening crash. The men paused, startled, and turned towards the door. I managed to look up, my vision blurry from tears. I saw two familiar figures standing in the doorway. "Russel?” I whispered skeptically. “Nikolai?” It seemed like they had frozen in shock—

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,
