Lia’s POV

My hands still shook as I pressed them to my chest, as if that would stop the pounding of my heart. Kade’s scent still clung to me… burning into my skin like a brand I couldn’t scrub off.

My lips still stung from his kiss, while my wrists ached where he’d pinned me. I hated him. I hated the way he could cage me, bend me, and still leave me shaking as though part of me wanted him so badly anytime he touched me.

No.

I murmured, pacing the room like a caged animal. This wasn’t about him anymore. This was about Noah. The way he looked at me tonight—like I was filth.

As if I were his enemy—those eyes had stabbed me worse than any blade ever could. He wasn’t himself anymore, and if I didn’t pull him back now, I was going to lose him forever.

But I couldn’t do it alone.

Before my courage could snap in half, I stormed down the hall, heading straight towards the devil himself. He turned to face me, irritation flickering across his face. “I’m I that hard to resist, little princess?”

  • A contract with the ruthless mafia billionaire    The Other Sister

    Lia’s POVSelene’s voice sliced into my bones like poison. She stood there with that smirk, her dark hair shining under the warm restaurant lights. Her eyes scanned over me with the cruel satisfaction of a predator watching its prey.“What the hell are you doing here?” I snapped, my voice sharp enough to cut through anything.”This is between me and my brother. Not you. So stay out of it.”I blinked, the shock of her presence here giving way to my fury, my hands curled into fists at my side. Selene’s smile widened, lazy and cruel, her heels clicking against the polished floor as she strolled closer.“I don’t stay out of things easily, darling. Especially when the things involve him.” Her gaze flicked deliberately towards Kade’s name lingering between us, though she didn’t say it out loud. “This has nothing to do with Kade,” I hissed.“This is between me and Noah. Get the fuck out.”Selene’s laugh was soft, low, and utterly mocking. “Everything has to do with Kade. Don’t deceive yoursel

  • A contract with the ruthless mafia billionaire    The Enemy Within

    Lia’s POVI didn’t knock at the door because I couldn’t care less. My fury carried me through the doors of Kade’s bedroom like a storm that couldn’t be stopped.He was there..of course, he was… leaning back in his leather chair like he owned not just the room, but the air I breathed. His shirt was half unbuttoned, exposing the smooth skin of his chest.Careless and tempting like sin itself draped in silk. I hated that my eyes lingered for too long, the sudden chills that crept through my spine before I forced my eyes away. Anger burned through me, but mixed with something shameful I couldn’t explain.“Cancel the deal.” My voice cut sharply, my chest rising and falling too fast as he stepped closer. “End it. Right now.”He looked up, those dark eyes meeting mine with the lazy arrogance of a man who knew exactly what he was trying to do to me. A flicker of irritation crossed his face, but he didn’t move.My nails bit into my palms as I clenched my fists. No. I wasn’t going to let myself

  • A contract with the ruthless mafia billionaire    Shattered Bloodlines

    Lia’s POVThe world seemed to revolve only to the weight of Kade’s gun pointing at my head, his finger twitching on the trigger. For one second, Damon’s voice wasn't even heard….I thought the bullet had already ripped through me.“Boss,” Damon repeated, “it’s Noah Morgan. He’s here. And he’s demanding to see you.”But Kade didn’t drop the gun immediately. He held me there, pressed under his shadow, forcing me to look at him…to understand that if Damon hadn’t just walked in, I’d already be dead.“Looks like your long-lost brother is finally back, little princess.” He spoke, lowering the gun not out of mercy, but out of interruption.“Bring him in,” Kade ordered, his voice razor-sharp. Before I could even try to process the emotions going through me at the return of Noah, his hand gripped my wrist, dragging me out of the room and across the hall. His grip was bruising, his silence screaming louder than his rage.Damon led the way until we finally reached the study—those massive double

  • A contract with the ruthless mafia billionaire    Pull The Trigger

    Lia’s POVI was still curled on the bed, my muscles heavy. The ache along my wrists from where his belt had bitten into my skin, the heat that had burned across my cheek when his temper had snapped….it was all still there, stitched into my body like fresh bruises.Sleep had eluded me, every time I closed my eyes I saw his face from last night. Cold..unyielding. I was still caught up in the haze when the door slammed open so hard it shook the hinges.Kade stood at the doorway like a shadow blocking out the light—his broad shoulders, those dark eyes raging like a storm that had finally landed. He didn’t speak. He didn’t need to.He moved fast in three strides, the floorboards creaking under his boots…and suddenly towering over me. Before I could even push myself upright he gripped my wrists tightly, forcing me upright in an instant.“Your phone.” He growled, his voice low and dangerous. The kind of tone that didn’t even rise when it was angry..it just cut deeper. My fingers moved on ins

  • A contract with the ruthless mafia billionaire    Guilt or Maybe…Love

    Kade’s POVI didn’t sleep all night.I didn’t even try to.I’d just been sitting for hours, in the same clothes I wore last night, her face haunting me every time I blinked. Her silence had been worse than all the insults she usually hurled at me.And now…I was standing in the doorway of my bedroom like a stranger. Lia still lay on the bed, turned away from me, the blanket still tangled around her legs. Even from here, I could see the shadows of bruises along her wrist where my hand had gripped too hard.The redness on her cheeks was where my temper had found her. The way she had frozen under my touch. I’d crossed a line… a line I swore I’d never cross with any woman. I stepped inside the room before I could change my mind.My footsteps are silent on the hardwood. She didn’t turn to acknowledge me, for someone who had just lain in the same position all through the night. She should have at least tried to move, but she didn’t. Not even throwing curses at me and calling me a monster li
