“I’m angry, okay?” Asher said, finally turning to face me again.

“I’m angry that you put me in that situation. I’m angry that you care so little about yourself. I’m angry that you nearly destroyed something I’ve been working so damn hard to build... for us. For you....”

I opened my mouth, but nothing came out. My throat had closed up.

"And you even laughed about it too... As if the whole thing was funny to you..." He took a deep breath filled with anger.

And that’s when it started to click. It started to dawn on me—what I’d done. What I had made him do.

That day in the bedroom... How I’d tried to cross lines that maybe shouldn’t have been crossed.

How I thought it was intimacy, but to him, it was something else entirely.

It mattered to him. Deeply. More than I’d realized. I hadn’t seen it then. Not in his eyes. Not in the moment.

But now, seeing the disappointment and hurt on his face... Hearing it in the tone of his voice...

It hit me. Hard.

I felt sick with guilt. Sick because I ha

  • CLAIMED BY THE MAFIA DON   The Look In His Eyes

    Asher groaned as he tried to take my hand away from him, but I pulled him by his sweater and started kissing him.After nibbling and sucking and playing with his lips, he let me inside his mouth and actually started reciprocating my kiss.As his hands went towards my neck, pulling the hoodie off my head, I used this chance to open the zipper of my sweater, opening it and tossing it aside, left inside with a strapless pink crop top.He groaned in appreciation, and as he did, I started taking the top off, but he put his hand on mine to stop me.As he pulled back, I stood up and went to stand in front of him as I took the crop top off and opened the button of my jeans, the zipper, then took it off me.He looked at me, taken by surprise, clearly. I couldn't read the look in his eyes, but I knew that he wanted me. There was pure lust there, but he seemed to be fighting his want for me. I got on top of him while he was still frozen and As soon as I reached him, Asher grabbed my nape, threa

  • CLAIMED BY THE MAFIA DON   Gunfire

    Pop! pop!Suddenly there was the sound of gunshots in the air and I just froze.I don't know what happened as I sat there on the bed, frozen, but then suddenly Asher was in my face, talking to me. He was already dressed, he had never taken anything off, so he was fully dressed. I was the one naked lying there on the bed as the sound of heavy gunshots kept being heard in the air.He was touching my face, his face was on my face and he was telling me, "Ariella, Ariella, look at me, look at me, Baby." That's when I turned to look at him.He tells me, "Get dressed right now, hurry up." He throws the clothes at me, he's on his phone, he's making calls. I don't know, I'm scared, I'm confused. I start putting the clothes on, my hands are shaking. I ask him, "What's going on?"He's not answering me and he's not panicking like I am, but I can feel that something's wrong. And then I hear a scream and I can't help myself, I start screaming too.He comes towards me and puts his hand on my mout

  • CLAIMED BY THE MAFIA DON   An Ugly Cry

    I am underneath Asher's weight. He's on top of me, and he's heavy, and the sound of gunshots makes me want to scream, but Asher places his hand in front of my mouth.Just a second later, the girl we were with started running while screaming aloud, and the sound of gunshots followed her as she ran away from us.Asher keeps pressing on me for a few minutes, but what feels like hours, until he says, "Shh," and then he stands up.He groans a little. I'm about to ask him what's going on when he makes this communication with his hands, not saying a word as he keeps telling me to shut the hell up.We start walking, following Luca on the other side of the way from where the girl had run, and just when we're a few paces away, we hear more screaming, screams of agony before it all goes quiet.Luca mutters under his breath, "Shit," and then he starts running.Asher starts running behind him, pulling my hand forward. We're running. I don't know where we're going, but I'm not supposed to be talkin

  • CLAIMED BY THE MAFIA DON   A Quiet Night

    My heart plummets.Shot?I was right. From the very first moment when he shielded me when he pressed me down and hushed me — I knew something was wrong.I feel the sting of tears behind my eyes, hot and fast, but I bite them back.The last thing Asher needs right now is to see me falling apart again.Still, I can't stop myself. My voice comes out in a whisper, shaking despite my best effort to keep it steady."You were shot?"I watch him carefully, trying — begging — not to show how scared I am.But Asher doesn’t even glance at me. He ignores the question entirely, saying nothing as he shrugs off his hoodie with stiff, jerky movements.Underneath, he’s wearing a t-shirt — and the moment the fabric lifts, blood smears across his arm and side, dripping sluggishly down.There’s no more hiding it. No more pretending.I’ve never seen someone shot before. And now it’s Asher.My Asher.Seeing it — seeing him like this —I can't take it. I clench my fists at my sides, digging my nails into my

  • CLAIMED BY THE MAFIA DON   Watching Him

    I walk forward — towel still wrapped around me, still damp from the shower — but none of that matters. All that matters is Asher. All that matters is the way he watches me.When I reach the edge of the bed, he reaches out his uninjured hand to me. Without hesitation, I take it. He gently tugs me closer until I'm standing between his knees, his forehead pressing against my stomach, his hands clutching my hips like he’s anchoring himself to me."I’m right here," I whisper, threading my fingers through his hair.His arms tighten around me — not hard enough to hurt, but enough to make me feel it. And when he looks up at me, there's something in his eyes.Something that tells me he’s just as terrified of losing me as I am of losing him.Gathering my courage, I ran my hands over his chest and then down his abs until my fingertips grazed his waistband. Then I quickly backed up. I kept my eyes on my hands as I explored his muscled chest, but his eyes were on me the entire time. I ran my finge

  • CLAIMED BY THE MAFIA DON   Regret and Flames

    I stared down at my hand wrapped around his softening cock, his cum all over it. I couldn't believe I did that, that I made Asher have this reaction to me. His fingers gently pried my hand away, and I let him, my own limbs feeling heavy and unresponsive.Then he stood and picked up my towel and wrapped it around me. A silent tug was all it took for me to follow. My feet moved without my conscious direction, carrying me into the cool sterility of the bathroom. The sound of the water filling the sink was a stark contrast to the thoughts in my head. He took my hand, the warmth of his touch a strange anchor as he held it under the running water, washing away the evidence of what had just transpired.When I was clean, he rubbed my hands with a wash towel and then wiped himself off with it, clicked off the light, and then pulled me with his hand in mine back to the bedroom. He was still naked. I think he didn't care if Luca saw him naked. That's why he wanted me to wrap it up.He pulled me

    Asher's gaze flashed. "I can't be a righteous man right now, Ariella... Stop doing that."I bit my bottom lip.He hissed as I asked, "Stop doing what?""If you continue doing that, I'm going to have to break all the promises I made to you. Break all the promises I made to your parents...." He took a deep breath as if asking some divine power for strength."What's stopping you? You are already halfway there anyway...." I asked in a challenging way. "I'm not stopping you."I released my tongue and licked my upper lip suggestively. I hoped I was doing a good job.He groaned before his face changed and he gritted out, "Get on the bed."Get on the bed. It was a demand, his lazy mood hardening into a harsh one that made my heart thump against my ribcage.I pulled away from him and crawled onto the bed. It felt like I was about to get what I wanted after all, I thought to myself as I got settled on my back. I swallowed as I glanced at his erection that strained through his boxers. Anticip

    It might have been the stupidest, most impulsive thing I’d ever done, but I didn’t want to use a condom from the nightstand. That wouldn't be of any help for my plan. I needed to get pregnant, and a condom would prevent such." Why do you want to wear a condom?" I managed to question, still grinding on top of himHe looked strained, and his voice was shaking. He answered, "We don't want you to get pregnant. You can't be pregnant....."He hissed when I kept on grinding and put his hands on my waist to stop me. I raised an eyebrow at him.He shook his head, finding his voice as he said, "If I f*** you without a condom, I'm gonna come inside of you and you're going to get pregnant. You'll get Pregnant before we're married. Can you believe the scandal?" he said.I looked at him and then I asked him, "Are you clean?""Of course I'm clean," he answered straight away."Do you believe that I'm clean?""Of course you are.

    I froze.“I… I just heard it,” I stumbled. “Maybe Mom told me. Or someone else. I don’t know...”He didn’t respond. Didn’t agree. Didn’t argue. Just watched me like he was working out a puzzle. I hated that look—it meant he knew something was off. I could have kicked myself.I rushed to change the subject. “Dad, I’m sure you have friends. After all, everyone knows I’m supposed to marry Asher. That has to count for something. There must be some kind of connection, some leverage. I just want to know he’s okay.”He looked at me, and I saw a mixture of things flash across his face—guilt, worry, uncertainty. He opened his mouth to say something, but then—My mother’s voice cut through the air.“Please don’t tell me you’re entertaining this.”We both turned toward her.“Have you been eavesdropping?” I accused.“I’m not eavesdropping. This is my house,” she snapped.I rolled my eyes. She ignored me and looked at my father. “You cannot keep entertaining her delusions. She’s supposed to brea

    I narrowed my eyes at my mother, stunned by what she had just said. “Are you serious?” I asked, my voice sharp with disbelief.“Of course I am,” she replied, her tone too casual for the conversation. “I mean, the bullet just didn't hit anywhere vital from what I hear. I’m sure he’s going to be fine. But if it had struck somewhere more critical… we could have been talking about something else right now. We wouldn’t even be worried about him anymore.”I stared at her, horrified. She didn’t just say that. She couldn’t have meant that.“Are you saying… are you actually wishing the bullet had hit his heart? Or his head? Do you wish he had died?” My voice shook as the words left me.“No, no, no,” she rushed to say, raising her hands like she could shove the words back in. “I would never say that. Why would I say that----- I didn’t say that.”But I saw it. It was there—in her eyes. That flicker of frustration. That relief that the situation almost solved itself. She did wish it. She wished

    “Ariella, listen to me,” Luca said, his tone light but sincere. “Seriously, I’m not even mad at you. I mean—okay—maybe I’m a little upset that the two of you decided to do the deed while I was next door.”I groaned, embarrassment washing over me all over again. He laughed, clearly trying to ease the tension.But then he got all serious, "Ariella,” he said, nudging my arm lightly. “Look, I kinda like that you have a backbone. You were fighting for the man you love. I know you love Asher. And Asher loves you. I love that you threatened me, honestly—it shows you’ve got fire. You’re going to be the queen one day. You’re gonna need that, aren’t you?”I managed a small smile and nodded.“But seriously,” he added, chuckling, “have pity on the poor guy. He was hurt, for God’s sake!”He started laughing again. And even though the mortification hadn’t worn off, I found myself laughing too—awkwardly, but still.“Okay,” he said, suddenly shifting gears, “let me sneak you back inside.”We moved qu

    I nearly felt like dying with mortification.On one side, there was the embarrassment—what we had just done, what Luca realized I had done, we had done. But on the other side, it was Asher’s life. The life I had put at risk. Just because I wanted to sleep with him. Because I wanted to get pregnant.But if he dies… then it would all be for nothing.I might not even get pregnant. Some people try to get pregnant for years and nothing happens. And I—what had I done? I had put his life at risk for a maybe.Tears started flowing. I didn’t even try to stop them.“I didn’t…” My voice cracked. “I am sorry.”I turned to look at Asher’s arm—the one I was holding—because I couldn’t bear to look at Luca’s face right now.'He had told me it was bad... He told me it only grazed his flesh. I didn’t know it was so bad.“It’s okay,” Luca interrupted me gently. “ He probably didn't want you to worry and made his condition seem better than it actually was.”He took a deep breath, then added, “Let’s not b

    It was only after we had both come down from our high that I realized how wet I was—how wet the bed was. The room was dark except for the faint glow of the moonlight seeping in through the window, but even in the dimness, I could feel it—the blood. Large amounts of it, sticky and warm against my chest, in my hands.Asher got off me, which made me whine softly.He asked, “Are you okay? Did I hurt you?”“I’m fine,” I said, grimacing as I tried to absorb the soreness and the sharp sting of pain that came with it.He collapsed beside me, and as I turned to look at him, I saw how drenched in sweat he was—how pale he was becoming. Then I saw the blood again and realized it was coming from his arm. And then it hit me—through all of it, while he was on top of me, kissing me, holding my hair, my neck, keeping me close—he had been using his injured arm. His shot arm.I winced as I sat up in the bed, suddenly aware of just how soaked I was. I had bled too. I glanced over at Asher—he had blood o
