CONTRACTED TO THE DON...AND HIS TWIN QUIET
Nico went quiet.Not the usual kind of quiet I had gotten used to from him... the focused silence when he was working through a complicated problem, or the controlled stillness he wore like armor in meetings. This was something total. Something that lived in the empty space where the bond used to be.The morning after we showed him the kill order, he was already dressed and gone from the bedroom when I woke up. Matteo was still there, one arm heavy over my waist, breathing slow and deep, but the other side of the bed was cold and neatly abandoned. I lay still for a long minute and reached for the bond out of pure habit, the way I had every morning since it first formed.Nothing.No low hum of his presence. No residual tension or warmth or even the sharp edge of anger. Just a blank place where he used to live in my chest. The absence was so complete it made my stomach drop and my fingers tighten in the sheets.I found him in the kitchen. Coffee already made. Phone in his hand. Laptop o
CONTRACTED TO THE DON...AND HIS TWIN POWER GRID
We told him the next night, exactly the way Matteo and I had planned in the kitchen at four in the morning. Dinner was quiet in a way that already felt wrong. Maria had made something simple and left early, like she could sense the tension even if she didn’t know the cause. The three of us sat at the table and ate like it was any other evening, but the weight between Matteo and me was obvious if you knew how to look. Nico noticed. Of course he did. His eyes moved between us more than once during the meal, that sharp, practiced awareness already picking up that something was sitting under the surface. He didn’t ask while we were eating. He waited. That was his way. Let the pressure build until someone else broke first. After the plates were cleared and the penthouse had settled into its usual nighttime quiet, Matteo looked at me across the living room and gave a small, deliberate nod. My stomach tightened. I stood up. “Nico. Can we talk to you in the study?” He studied my face for
CONTRACTED TO THE DON...AND HIS TWIN NO MORE HIDING
It was four in the morning when we ended up in the kitchen.Neither of us had really slept. After everything on the rooftop... the kill order, Matteo’s rage and grief and the way he had broken and rebuilt in front of me... and after everything that followed in his room, sleep felt impossible. The truth was too big in my chest. The choice we still had to make was even bigger. So we got up quietly, pulled on whatever clothes were closest, and went downstairs in the dark without turning on any of the main lights.The penthouse was completely silent. Nico was still asleep down the hall, breathing deep and even the last time I had checked. Maria wouldn’t arrive for hours. It was just the two of us and the low, constant hum of the city far below the windows.Matteo filled the kettle without asking if I wanted coffee. I got two mugs down from the cupboard and set them on the counter. We moved around each other in the dim under-cabinet lighting like we had done it a hundred ordinary mornings,
CONTRACTED TO THE DON...AND HIS TWIN BREATHE
We didn’t go back inside right away.After Matteo handed the phone back and pulled me hard against him on the rooftop, we just stood there for a long time. The city moved below us like nothing had changed. The wind stayed cold and sharp. His heart kept hammering under my ear while the bond carried everything raw and unfiltered... the rage at his father, the crushing guilt, the grief for a man he had never even met, and that fierce new edge that said he had already chosen me over blood. I held onto him just as tight. For the first time since I found the first email between Dante and Voss, I wasn’t carrying the full weight of the truth alone.When we finally went downstairs, the penthouse was still dark and quiet. Nico was asleep down the hall. Neither of us spoke. Matteo led me straight to his room instead of the one the three of us usually shared. He closed the door, locked it with a soft click, and turned to face me in the dim light coming through the windows.The look in his eyes st
CONTRACTED TO THE DON...AND HIS TWIN MATTEO FIRST
I told Matteo first. It was late, past midnight. The penthouse was dark and quiet behind us. Nico had fallen asleep hours earlier, one arm still stretched across the space where I had been lying. I found Matteo in the living room standing near the windows, staring out at the city like his mind was somewhere else. When I said, “Come with me,” he turned and followed without asking a single question. That was one of the things about him. He trusted me enough to move first and ask later. We took the stairs up to the rooftop terrace. The night air was cold and sharp. The city stretched out below us in every direction, lights glittering like nothing in the world had ever gone wrong. Wind pulled at my jacket and my hair. I walked to the far railing and stopped. Matteo came up beside me and waited, quiet, watching my face in the dark. I didn’t waste time with soft lead-ins. I unlocked my phone, opened the secure file, and held the screen out to him. “Read it,” I said. Matteo took the ph
CONTRACTED TO THE DON...AND HIS TWIN NO IDEA
I carried the proof for three days.The kill order sat locked on my phone behind every layer of security I had, and the weight of it lived under my ribs the entire time. Dante’s authorization. My father’s full name. The final piece that made everything undeniable. I didn’t open the file again after that first night in the study. I didn’t need to. The words were already burned into me... the careful language, the date, the cold decision that had turned my father into a problem that needed removing.The twins felt something closed in me through the bond. I could tell from the first morning. Nico watched me a little longer than usual over breakfast, eyes searching my face like he was trying to read past the surface. Matteo’s gaze lingered when he thought I wasn’t looking, quiet and steady and worried in that way he got when something felt off but he couldn’t name it. They both reached for me more often, like physical contact might open whatever door I had shut. But they couldn’t identify
CONTRACTED TO THE DON...AND HIS TWIN JUST STARTED
AURORA'S POV The laptop showed up at six-fifteen. Some staff girl I didn’t know...not Maria, dropped it on the corner desk and bounced without saying shit. I waited till her footsteps disappeared down the hall before I moved. Brand new, still wrapped in that plastic sleeve. Top-of-the-line shit,
CONTRACTED TO THE DON...AND HIS TWIN RULES
Nico came back at noon. I knew because the entire penthouse seemed to tighten the moment he walked in... staff moving a little faster, voices dropping, the air itself feeling heavier. I was in the library pretending to read a book I hadn’t turned a page of when I heard his voice in the hallway, lo
CONTRACTED TO THE DON...AND HIS TWIN MORNING
I woke up alone in the middle of the enormous bed, sheets tangled around my waist, morning light cutting cold and white through the floor-to-ceiling windows. My body ached. Not just a little soreness...deep, throbbing reminders between my legs, on my hips where fingers had gripped too hard, on my
CONTRACTED TO THE DON...AND HIS TWIN COMPLICATED
Nobody moved for what felt like forever. Matteo kept walking toward us, slow and quiet, like he owned the air in the room. I stood there clutching the front of my half-undone dress, heart hammering so hard I could feel it in my throat. “Okay,” I managed, my voice shaking more than I wanted. “Some
