Olivia POV

Home. If you could even call this fortified mansion with hidden weapons and security cameras tucked into every goddamn corner a home.

I still called it that, though. Because he was here.

I didn’t say it out loud.

Not because it wasn’t true. But because the truth—especially that one—was sharp. And I was already bleeding from a hundred other places he couldn’t see.

As soon as we walked in, I muttered something about needing a shower and disappeared down the hall. I didn’t wait fo

  • Bound By The Don's Bloody Bargain    CHAPTER 69

    Olivia — POVI didn’t lower the gun all the way.Not because I didn’t believe her.Because a part of me still did.And that part? That was the most dangerous thing in this room.Luciano’s hand brushed mine—a warning without words. A reminder. Don’t let old memories write new tragedies.Fayre was still crying. Still standing there like she was waiting for someone to pull her back from the fire she’d lit. But no one moved.“Talk,” I said flatly. “Now.”She swallowed hard. “They moved the shipment. Not to the port—south, through the mountain pass. Midnight tomorrow. That’s where the files are. The codes. The proof.”Luciano’s jaw ticked. “Why tell us this?”“Because I was wrong,” she whispered.I didn’t move.Didn’t speak.Just watched.People say you know someone until you don’t. But that’s a lie. You always know. You just ignore the fracture lines until the whole damn thing shatters.She blinked at me, voice cracking. “I didn’t think they’d really hurt you.”“You were wrong,” I said ag

  • Bound By The Don's Bloody Bargain    CHAPTER 68

    Olivia — POVThe bullet cracked past my cheekbone before I even registered the sound.Luciano’s shout—sharp and raw—ripped through the trees behind me as I dropped, rolled, came up behind the low stone wall of the old vineyard ruins we’d taken cover in just hours earlier.My heart didn’t race. It slammed. A war drum in my chest. Not from fear.But fury.“I’m fine!” I yelled, clutching the Glock tighter, ignoring the sting on my cheek where the bullet had kissed me.Luciano was beside me in the next breath, breathless, nostrils flared, eyes wild with the kind of terror he never let anyone see.“You’re not fine.”“Trust me,” I said, ducking behind the wall again as another shot sparked against the rock above us, “I’ve had worse dates.”He didn’t laugh.He was already pulling another clip from his jacket, jaw clenched so tight I thought it might shatter.“Four shooters. Two behind the shed, one behind the van, last one’s high ground, east tree line.”I blinked at him. “Did you…just analy

  • Bound By The Don's Bloody Bargain    CHAPTER 67

    Luciano — POVI didn’t trust him.Didn’t trust the way he stood too straight, like he’d been waiting for this moment.Didn’t trust the way his eyes tracked every corner of the room like he was cataloging entry points, exits, sightlines.Didn’t trust the way Olivia’s voice cracked when she said his name—like it still meant something.Logan.The brother who vanished when the world tried to devour her.And now he was back. Saying the right things. Wearing guilt like it was stitched to his skin. Looking at me like he was wondering if I deserved her.He didn’t have to wonder.I didn’t deserve her.But she was still mine.I watched Olivia as the door closed behind him.She hadn’t moved.Not a breath. Not a blink. Just sat there on the edge of the couch like the world had hit pause—and she wasn’t sure whether to scream or shatter.“Liv,” I said quietly.She didn’t answer.So I crossed the room, knelt in front of her, and took her hands.“You don’t have to carry this alone.”That did it. Her

  • Bound By The Don's Bloody Bargain    CHAPTER 66

    Olivia — POVI didn’t hit him.Let’s just get that on the record.I wanted to. Oh, I really, really wanted to. But I didn’t. Which, considering my history and my rapidly escalating blood pressure, honestly deserved a damn medal.“You’ve got five seconds,” I said, voice sharp as cut glass, “to explain what the hell you’re doing on my doorstep, after disappearing for—what was it? A year? Two?”My brother didn’t flinch.Didn’t blink.He just looked at me the way people look at war memorials. Like he remembered everything but didn’t have the words for it.His name caught in my throat like a splinter. “Logan.”He exhaled. A breath like regret. Like shame. “Liv.”Luciano stayed at my side, silent and still, but I felt the tension radiating off him like heat from a loaded gun. He didn’t trust this. He didn’t trust him.I didn’t either.“Let him in,” I said finally, the words bitter on my tongue.Luciano didn’t move.“Luciano.”He looked at me, jaw tight. Then, reluctantly, stepped aside.Log

    Olivia — POV Night fell slow and golden. Luciano lit the fireplace in the den, even though the house was warm. Said he liked the way the light moved. Said it reminded him of Rome in the winter. I didn't ask what that meant. I just curled into the massive couch beside him and let myself breathe. It wasn’t quiet. Not really. There was the crackle of flames. The distant hum of the security system. The slow, steady thud of his heartbeat beneath my cheek as I leaned against him. But it felt quiet. The kind of quiet that settles after chaos. After a storm. The kind of quiet that dares you to believe it might last. I’d showered, changed into soft cotton pajamas—his again, obviously—and eaten two more strawberries straight from the tray like a gremlin. He hadn’t stopped watching me. Like if he looked away, I might disappear. “You good?” I asked without lifting my head. “Mm-hm.” “You’re staring.” “Can you blame me?” I smiled against his chest. “I’m literally covered in strawberry

    Olivia — POV The house felt different the next morning. Still silent. Still too big. But different. Like the shadows had finally stopped whispering. I woke up before the sun had fully risen, curled against Luciano’s side, my head on his chest and his arm around my waist like he thought I might vanish if he let go. He was still asleep. I studied him for a moment—his jaw rough with stubble, his lashes resting against his cheeks, the barely-there frown he wore even in sleep, like his body hadn’t quite learned how to rest without expecting blood. And yet… He looked peaceful. Safe. Loved. My heart did this annoying, fluttery thing it had been doing way too much lately. Stupid thing. Stupid feelings. Stupid man for making me fall for him. I slipped out of bed quietly, pressing a kiss to his shoulder as I did. He shifted a little but didn’t wake. Good. He needed sleep. After everything with his father, after everything I said—God, the way Salvatore had looked at me, like I was a

  • Bound By The Don's Bloody Bargain    CHAPTER 43

    Olivia POV I swallowed hard, clutching the thin hospital gown tight around my shoulders as if it could shield me from what was coming. I didn’t want to know the results. Didn’t want to face whatever the doctor was carrying in his hands like a weapon. But here he was, marching toward me with tha

  • Bound By The Don's Bloody Bargain    CHAPTER 42

    Enzo POVThe night air bit with a cold sharpness, but I welcomed it like a slap to the face. It had been days since I saw Olivia—my Olivia, the slick puppet in Luciano’s deadly play. Every time I thought of her, something twisted inside me—a cocktail of desire and frustration, tangled with a danger

  • Bound By The Don's Bloody Bargain    CHAPTER 41

    Luciano POV Pain shot through my gut like a searing blade, ripping through flesh and ego alike. The stitches burned like hell, each tug of the needle making my jaw clench. I hissed, groaned—fuck, even let out a moan that I hoped wouldn’t haunt me for the rest of my damn life. Olivia, bless her hea

  • Bound By The Don's Bloody Bargain    CHAPTER 40

    Olivia – POV “Luciano!” I screamed again, my voice hoarse, my knees scraping against the cold, blood-slick pavement as I stumbled beside him. The bastard who stabbed him had already run off, disappearing into the night like a coward, leaving me alone with a man who’d just saved my life and looked
