로그인ADRIANA’S POVI leaned my head against the cool car window and watched the city lights streak by as Cassian drove us deeper into a quieter neighborhood. Luca had finally dozed off in my arms, his small body heavy with exhaustion after the chaotic escape. I kept one hand wrapped around his and glanced through the rear window every few seconds. No headlights followed us. Still, my heart refused to slow down. Every shadow on the sidewalk made my stomach twist. I had dragged this kind doctor and his sister into my nightmare, and the guilt already ate at me. Cassian pulled into the driveway of a modest two-story house with warm lights glowing from the windows. A woman stepped out onto the porch as soon as we arrived. She looked a few years older than him, with the same sharp jawline and practical short hair. She carried blankets and moved with purpose. “You must be Adriana,” she said quietly, her eyes flicking over my disheveled clothes and the sleeping boy in my arms. “I’m Laura, Cassi
ALESSANDRO’S POVI sat at the head of the long mahogany table and barely heard a word the men said. The senior syndicate members of the Orsini Syndicate filled the room with their smoke and opinions while Valentino leaned back in his chair like he owned the place. I kept my face blank and rolled the dragon head ring around my finger with my thumb. The heavy gold felt cool against my skin. My mind refused to leave that breakfast table where I had ordered Adriana locked away. A son. She had hidden a child all this time. The question gnawed at me. How many people knew and kept their mouths shut while I chased ghosts for five fucking years?Valentino cleared his throat and spoke directly to me. “Don Vincenzo, you cannot marry Adriana. She is second-hand goods now. She’s damaged, and used. You saw it yourself she got married to Roman, and after five years, she ran away from her husband’s house. She will do the same thing to you, she has done it before. Vaelina on the other hand, brings fr
ADRIANA’S POVI paced the locked room like a trapped animal, my bare feet silent on the cold marble floor. The guards had shoved me inside and slammed the heavy door, the click of the lock echoing like a final judgment. My chest tightened until each breath hurt. Luca. My little boy lay in that hospital bed, and I could not reach him. The thought clawed at my insides worse than any chain Alessandro had used on me. I pressed my forehead against the window glass and stared at the distant grounds below. It was too high. Jumping would shatter every bone in my body. I remembered the night I fled Roman’s fortress, Luca strapped tightly to my back in a makeshift carrier. I had twisted my ankle on landing and still ran through the woods with blood in my mouth. But this window offered no mercy. One wrong move and my son would lose his mother forever. I sank onto the edge of the bed and buried my face in my hands. Tears came hot and angry. Alessandro knew about Luca. He had thrown the truth at
ALESSANDRO’S POVI walked out of that room and left her chained on the bed without a backward glance. My dick throbbed painfully against my trousers with every step down the corridor. Each movement sent a fresh wave of frustration through my body. I wanted nothing more than to turn around, bury my dick deep inside her, and fuck her until she screamed my name loud enough for the entire estate to hear. But I refused, because giving in would show her she still held power over me after five long years. I would never let her see that weakness again. I reached my bedroom, slammed the door behind me with enough force to rattle the frame, and stripped off my clothes. The fabric felt too rough against my heated skin. Steam quickly filled the bathroom as I turned the shower to scalding hot. The moment I stepped under the spray, the water burned like fire across my shoulders and back, but the pain felt good. It grounded me and reminded me that I was still in control. I braced one hand against
ADRIANA’S POV“Five years, Rosa. Five years, and you’re still exactly the same,” he whispered, his voice low and calm. I lay spread open and chained to the bed, my chest heaving, body drenched in sweat and my own cum. I couldn’t answer him. My nipples throbbed like fire from the clamps. My pussy felt raw and puffy, still twitching from the brutal stretch of the toys. My asshole burned, clenching around nothing now, slick with lube and the mess I had made when I squirted again and again. Every breath sent fresh aches through my marked tits and swollen cunt. I needed him so badly it hurt worse than the whip. I lifted my head as much as the restraints allowed when Alessandro stepped closer. Finally my lips parted, voice hoarse and broken. “Master… please, I need you inside me. Fuck me. I want you to use me.” He said nothing. Those cold eyes swept over my wrecked body once more, then he reached for my wrists and uncuffed them with quick, impersonal movements. My ankles followed. He di
ALESSANDRO’S POVI stood over her chained body, her wrists and ankles locked wide to the four corners of the bed. Adriana’s chest rose and fell in shallow, panicked breaths. Her naked skin already gleamed under the low lights. “You are mine again, Adriana. Every hole. Every scream. Every drop of cum that leaks out of you belongs to me.”Her eyes widened. I flicked my wrist and the whip cracked across her left breast, the leather tip snapping hard over her stiff nipple. “Aghhh…” a raw cry ripped from her throat as her body jerked violently. Before she could recover I struck the right breast, harder this time. Her nipples swelled instantly, flushed dark red. I rained quick, stinging lashes across both tits until they bounced and burned, her back arching high off the mattress as the chains rattled. “Fuck! Alessandro!”I grabbed her jaw, forcing her to look at me. “Master,” I growled. “It’s Master to you in this room, not Alessandro. Say it.”“Master,” she gasped.“Don’t make me correc
ADRIANA’S POV I lingered near the top of the stairs when I heard Alessandro’s voice rise slightly from the hallway below. His face had changed during that phone call earlier. I caught the shift in his expression from the corner of my eye, the way his jaw tightened and his eyes went flat and danger
ALESSANDRO’S POVI turned to Adriana. She sat completely still, eyes fixed on her untouched plate. “The stylist team will arrive at three. Be ready to receive them.”“What?” Vaelina yelled as she pushed her chair back so hard it scraped loudly against the marble. “You arranged a stylist team for he
ADRIANA’S POVI stood alone in that forbidden room after Alessandro walked out, my arms wrapped tightly around my bare body as if I could hide the marks he had seen. The portrait of me above the bed stared down like a cruel reminder of who I used to be. My hands trembled while I gathered my clothes
ALESSANDRO’S POVI stood in the doorway with my blood boiling as I stared at Adriana. The sight of her in this room, her eyes wide with shock at the equipment around us, only fueled the rage pounding through my veins. “What the hell was that attitude about?” I demanded, my voice low and rough. I
