"Nobody! It is nobody!" I cried out, my voice breaking with desperation. "I have never cheated on you, Asher. It’s always been you. It has always been only you."

"Shut up, you bitch!" he snapped, his voice laced with pure fury. "You think I’m foolish? Do you think I’m stupid? You think I—" He cut himself off, running a hand through his hair before glaring down at me again. "Then where did this son come from? You think you're the virgin Mary?"

"No. I never said that, I...."

"You think I haven’t heard the rumours? People whispering behind my back, saying you were sneaking around? You think I don’t know why you were after me, the Don’s son?"

I shook my head, my lips parting to speak, but he wasn’t done.

"You think I don’t know why you forced me to sleep with you just weeks before you faked your own death?" His voice dropped lower, more dangerous. "Staged it, I should say."

"I don’t know what you’re talking about, Asher," I whispered, still curled up on the floor, my arms wrapped around m

  • CLAIMED BY THE MAFIA DON   Liar

    Asher softly answers my actions by giving me open-mouthed kisses up my neck and along my jaw until, finally, his delicious mouth is on mine again. His kisses. They're everything. One kiss erases my fear and dissolves time. It's an indescribable feeling of completion, like the coming together of pieces you never knew were missing until suddenly they were there. His hand trails up to my neck, and his kiss grows deeper as a low growl rumbles up through his chest. I fucking love that sound. It's the sound of rapture, and it's intoxicating knowing that I'm the source of it. His lips hastily leave mine only to drop to my bare shoulder before descending. My head lolls back as his mouth paralyzes me. Teeth pinch my nipple through the material of my strapless maxi dress, and I can't help but hiss at the sting of pain. "Shh," he coos before pulling down the front of my dress and sucking my nipple into his mouth."Mmm," I moan as warmth spreads through my belly. His fingers slowly bunch in my

  • CLAIMED BY THE MAFIA DON   The Man I Once Knew

    Asher hovered over me. A bulge tented his pants. He brought his fingers, coated in my juices to his mouth and licked them clean with a wicked smile. My core clenched, wanting more, completely mesmerized by the sensations slowly dimming in my body. My hand moved toward the waistband of his pants, desire clouding my judgment, but he caught my hand gently and shook his head.“No,” he said, firm but soft.I opened my mouth to argue, but he repeated it, a little gentler this time. “No.”Then he stood, reached for my hand, and pulled me to my feet. Without a word, he helped me fix my clothes, adjusted my dress, smoothed my hair, and brushed the sand out with such tenderness, that I didn’t know what to do with it. He was sweet. Warm. Gentle. It felt like he actually cared.And maybe he did.Still, I glanced down at the very obvious hard bulge he was trying to ignore. “That looks painful,” I said, nodding toward the tight fabric at the front of his pants.“It’s fine,” he said quickly.But I

  • CLAIMED BY THE MAFIA DON   The Same Asher

    Asher gave me a tour of the entire property, the entire island. He showed me everything with the same calm certainty he always carried. But this time, he wasn’t just a cold, calculating man; he was warm, and enthusiastic, like he actually wanted me to see this. He never once let go of my hand or on my back... it was almost like he couldn't stay without touching me somehow.He showed me the island structures, the beachfront, and the little corners he said would attract tourists and clients, all of it had a purpose, and somehow, being shown around made me feel like I had one too, even just for a moment. I had an amazing time. And then he took me to dinner.We were the only ones there. A private, candle-lit table had been set at the edge of a wooden deck, close enough to hear the soft waves brushing the shore. The waiters moved in silence, perfectly trained, never lingering too long. Asher pulled out my chair. He placed his hand gently on the small of my back when I sat. He asked what I

  • CLAIMED BY THE MAFIA DON   The Island

    I was still in disbelief as I stepped out the front door, heels clicking against the pavement. The air felt different, free. My heart pounded in my chest with every step I took down the driveway, closer to the sleek black car waiting for me. I couldn’t believe I was actually being allowed to leave. It had been months.When I reached the car, the passenger door opened, and Asher stepped out.I froze.He walked toward me with slow, purposeful steps. Then, to my surprise, he leaned down and pressed a tender kiss to my forehead.“You look beautiful,” he said softly, gazing into my eyes with something I couldn’t quite name.... love? Longing? Care?I must be crazy. Maybe what he’d almost starved us had done something… had messed with my mind more than I’d thought.He took my hand gently and helped me into the car, closing the door behind me. I watched as he moved to the other side and got in beside me. The driver pulled away from the house, and my eyes instinctively flicked to the rearview

  • CLAIMED BY THE MAFIA DON   The Box

    The next morning, I woke up to a clean house and the rich, mouthwatering smell of food drifting from the kitchen. I couldn’t remember the last time something had smelled so delicious.Without thinking, I jumped out of bed and hurried downstairs. As I turned the corner, I found Maria standing in the kitchen, busy over the stove, moving with the same rhythm and care I’d come to recognize. I hadn’t realized just how much I’d gotten used to her until she disappeared. I hadn’t realized how attached I’d become.I ran up to her and wrapped my arms around her tightly. She turned around, caught off guard, and gave me an awkward little hug back.“You left us without saying anything,” I whispered. I wasn’t accusing her, I was just... happy. So happy to see her.“Where did you go? Where have you been?”Maria raised an eyebrow, a small smile forming. “It’s only been a few weeks. Why are you making so much out of it?”Then she softened a little. “Mr. Luca gave me some time off. I hadn’t seen my par

  • CLAIMED BY THE MAFIA DON   Had Enough

    Things got worse, so much worse that I ended up feeding Leon dry bread with water.I had baked the bread myself, scraping together what was left of the flour. I tried to make it soft, tried to make it taste like love, but it was just dry, tasteless. That night, after I tucked Leon into bed and kissed his forehead, I went to my room and broke down.I cried, not because of the bread, not because of the hunger, not even because of the silence. I cried because I knew I had to start rationing. Rationing flour. Like we were in a war. And in a way, we were. It just wasn’t being fought with guns, it was being fought with cruelty and hate.What if this wasn’t the end?What if his next retaliation was worse?No gas? No electricity? No water?I was terrified of what might come next. I was scared of how I was going to protect my son somewhere where even basics could be taken away at a whim.I cried myself to sleep. And then...something touched my shoulder.I shot up, heart pounding, thinking it w
