Masuk“You hate me, don’t you?” Dante murmured, lips ghosting over mine in slow torture. “More than anything.” “Good.” The smirk on his face was sickening. “It’ll make it that much sweeter when you beg me to ruin you.” _ To escape a marriage to a tyrant, Amara Vitale makes a reckless bargain with a devil she’s hated all her life. Dante DeLaurentis. Her rival since childhood, sworn enemy to her family, and the man who would burn down whatever stood in his path to ash if it meant getting what he wants. The plan is simple: A fake engagement to save her from her father’s brutal alliance. But every lie they tell themselves, every kiss they fake, and every dangerous night in his world blurs the line between pretense and obsession. Soon, her greatest enemy becomes her fiercest protector, but also the man who could break her heart or ruin her family forever. In a world where blood and betrayal rule, love isn’t something she can afford. When enemies threaten to ruin everything she holds dear, Amara must decide if surrendering to Dante will save her…or destroy her completely.

The underboss did not look the slightest bit happy, eyes searching through mine for some sort of explanation.“Oi, calm down. You have questions, yes? Glaring at me won’t give you the answers you want.” I fixed him a pointed look.He ran a hand through his hair in frustration. “Why did you decide to get engage to her? A fucking Vitale. And you didn’t tell me. No warnings whatsoever.”“It wasn’t planned.” I snarled back, making my way towards the island and grabbing a glass. I’d have pulled out a cigarette but I wasn’t the smoking type. What I needed was something to keep my mouth busy through Cassian’s rant.He followed right after me. “Since when did you things without planning and thinking it through?”I grabbed a bottle of negroni, helping myself to a glass. “Since I stumbled upon an asset.”I finally turned to Cassian, noting the look of frustration in his eyes. It had all
DANTEI’ve had a knack for being impulsive in the oddest moments. As a child, it didn’t matter if I had to jump into a pool just to get my lucky coin, or step onto the road in pursuit of my dog, ‘Lucky’. I’d leap before even giving it a thought.So, when Amara had dangled that dangerous proposal in front of me, it all felt too good to be true. A fake proposal? How the hell would that solve anything? I’d have Viktor on my ass and for sure, her brothers definitely wouldn’t sit by idle.But she was right about one thing. There was a lot to gain by agreeing to this relationship. For one, I could get all the info I need to ruin the Vitale family once and for all. Viktor was sure to have some dirt on him, something I could use against him.And Amara would lead me to it.She still seemed to be at a loss for words, eyes lingering on the ring on her finger.“Oh, my goodness.”“I can’t believe it.”I turned to the onlookers, who were now taking pictures and gushing at us. Amara finally snapped
AMARA“This has to be a joke.”Except it wasn’t. When I’d been silent in the face of Dante’s question, he’d quietly started the car and started driving off. At first, I thought he was lying when he said he’d take us to one of his safehouses. I didn’t think he’d actually go through with it.Dante turned to me. “And you’re the clown.”I sent him another glare but he didn’t seem affected by it. I’d sent him quite enough this time around. He stopped to discuss something with the security before driving into the compound.“Why did you bring me here?” I folded my arms.He didn’t bother, simply stopping the car in front of the house. Then he turned to me. “Mind getting your ass out of the car?”I flinched back a little before narrowing my eyes on him. It was hard keeping my hands in place. I wanted to just strangle him at the moment. Like having my father on my tail wasn’t bad enough. I had to be given solace by none other than Dante DeLaurentis a.k.a the Devil’s apprentice. Damn it.Withou
DANTEThere weren’t a lot of things that could piss me off. One thing I prided myself on, was the amount of self-control I always had, regardless of the situation.Which was why I didn’t understand the reason for that irritation that wouldn’t crawling underneath my skin.“What do you mean you let him get away?” I growled into my phone.“Look, our men are already on his tail. They’ve already pinpointed his location as we speak. You’ll have him back in those chains in twenty—no—fifteen minutes tops.” Cassian, my second in command, explained.I cursed underneath my breath. “Fine then. More than fifteen minutes, and somebody’s having their dick cut off.”“Ai, ai, captain.” Cassian drawled.I ended the call without a second thought. Bastard. I could basically hear the smirk in his voice. In any case, I trusted Cassian to get the job done. He was as reliable as they came and loyal to a fault.My main focus now would be on getting to my jet. I had a couple of meetings that I’d held out for l
