Rhea's Pov

"And what did you find?" I asked, leaning forward, suddenly anxious.

Marcus’s lips tightened into a thin line, "We found something concerning, Rhea. Our investigations show that Leon was in contact with the lab that created those drugs up until a few weeks ago. We weren't able to determine the extent at which he was entangled with the lab, but we have enough data to show that he has been in contact with them for a few weeks before he coincidentally met you."

“What?” I sucked in a sharp breath. The shock was intense.

"Although it's unclear as to whether he has a hand in the illegal distribution of the drugs, it's safer not to come in contact with him anymore. And then there's this." Marcus said, bringing out his phone and pointing to a high-definition picture, it looked like it was shot with a professional camera, "Leon was spotted with Isabelle more than once. The first meeting happened one week after Isabelle's announcement of the engagement with Alaric, and the second ti

    Rhea's Pov "Get out of my way!" Laziel finished, his eyes flashing slightly. The silence that followed Laziel’s angry yell was deadly quiet. Even the wind seemed to stop at this very moment. Monte looked like he’d been turned to stone, his mouth hanging open, his eyes darting between the guards who had lowered their weapons and the nephew he had tried so hard to erase. Jeremy, meanwhile, looked like he was trying to physically shrink into the body of the car behind him. Beside me, I felt a shift in the air. Alaric’s hand, which had been resting possessively on my waist, slid down to catch my palm. He interlaced our fingers, he didn't say a word, but he didn't have to. He took a long, deliberate step forward, positioning us directly behind Laziel’s left shoulder. It was a silent, lethal declaration of war. By standing there, Alaric wasn’t just a witness; he was the muscle. He was telling every person in this courtyard that if they touched Laziel, they were declaring war on the Va

    Immediately Alaric said those words, it was as if the air had gone cold. Beside me, I heard Laziel’s breath stop completely. He went so still he looked like a statue carved from ice, his gaze fixed on Alaric’s profile, then slowly, shifting to Monte.Monte’s reaction was immediate and damning. He didn't scream and he didn’t even argue at first. His knees simply gave out for a fraction of a second before he caught himself against the side of a stone pillar. His face went a sickly pale and sweat had started to gather around his temples. "That’s... that’s a lie," Monte finally wheezed, but the words lacked any teeth. He looked around at the gathered clan members, his eyes wide and wild. "He’s an outsider! He’s trying to sow discord! Don't listen to him! Guards! Why aren't you moving? Arrest this man for slander!" But the guards didn't move. They were looking at Monte with a new kind of suspicion. The Giovanni clan was built on blood and loyalty, but it was also built on respect for

    Rhea's Pov. Three ink-black SUVs tore through the gates as they skidded to a halt right behind our car. Then the doors opened and all eyes turned to stare at them. The first ones to come out were Nathan and Xander. They were both dressed in black, like bodyguard and although they were both handsome, the next person who came out actually made my heart almost stop. Alaric stepped out and he was dressed in all black, a custom-tailored silk shirt unbuttoned just enough to show the hollow of his throat, and trousers that made him look a mile tall. He moved with a predatory grace that made my heart do a clumsy somersault. Honestly, he was oozing sexiness. There was something about Alaric in "work mode" that made my knees feel like jelly. He didn't look at the mansion. He didn't look at Monte. His eyes, dark and intense, found me instantly. He walked straight over, his boots clicking rhythmically on the stone. Without a word, he wrapped a firm arm around my waist, pulling me so close I c

    Rhea's PovThe scared look on most of the men's faces almost made me laugh. Once again, I realised that Alaric's name was widely known and members from THE Giovanni family feared him even though the Giovanni's weren't what they once were due to the whole power shift. But what I didn't bother telling them was that Alaric was already on his way here in the first place. I had simply left the villa with Laziel and Marcus a little earlier to get a head start, knowing Alaric would be right behind us once he finished doing whatever he said he was doing. Watching Monte’s face was like watching a building slowly collapse in real-time. The arrogance drained out of him, replaced by a frantic, oily desperation. Suddenly, Monte’s entire character shifted. He stepped forward, his posture losing its stiffness, and forced a wide, toothy smile that didn't reach his cold eyes. He let out a dry, forced chuckle. "Ah, Mrs. Vale! Please, please, let’s not be hasty," Monte said, his voice now dripping wit

    Rhea's Pov Jeremy didn’t even flinch at my tone. If anything, my coldness seemed to egg him on. He stayed there, practically groveling at my feet, his flamboyant silk shirt bunching up as he ignored the gravel biting into his knees. I don't even know how he was able to ignore the texture of the gravel under his knees. "I am the heir to the Giovanni fortune!" he declared, his voice rising in a pitch of manic desperation. "I can give you worlds! I can give you everything those other men can't give you! I love you! I’ve loved you since the moment you insulted my family’s intelligence!""Other men?" I repeated, it took all of my self control for my jaw not to drop to the ground. I stared down at him, my expression shifting from shock to a dry, weary amusement. "First of all," I said, my voice dripping with sarcasm, "I'm happily married. Second of all, I don't need 'everything' from you because I already have everything I could ever want. And third? You're literally kneeling in dirt. G

    Rhea's Pov The man’s eyes snapped toward me, cold and unforgiving. His lips thinned into a line of pure ice. "I have no idea what you’re trying to say, little girl," he said, his voice dropping to a low, dismissive growl. "But I suggest you watch your tongue before you find yourself thrown out onto the street." I didn't flinch. Instead, I let out a light, airy shrug, moving my hands as if brushing off a piece of dirt from my clothes. "If you don’t understand, then it’s fine. I won’t force you to use a brain that clearly isn't working today. However," I added, my voice sharpening as I looked him dead in the eye, "there’s no need to stand here and keep accusing us of lying. It’s incredibly easy to settle this. We can conduct a DNA test right now to check if he’s the real Laziel or not. Unless, of course, the great Giovanni family is afraid of what a drop of blood might say." The man’s face went a shade of purple that matched the tacky gold trim on his house. He looked like he was abo
