Chapter 100RAYANA POVPieces of consciousness found me lying on my back. My whole body ached as though I had run a 24-mile marathon before having a one-on-one with Goliath the Giant. My head felt like some giants had thrown a massive party, with an unmistakable pang that refused to leave me no matter how I tried. My mouth??? It felt like somebody had shoved sand down my fucking throat. Slowly, not to aggravate the monstrous headache, I pried my eyes open, carefully taking in the surroundings. I realized I was inside one of the guest bedrooms back at the base, with stone ceilings staring back at me and a crystal chandelier dawning it. The small beep, beep, beep could be heard from my left side. “Rayana.” A familiar voice called out before my vision caught on a movement. I focused my eyes on the figure in front of me, then smiled when my husband came into full view. “God, why did you scare me like that?” He breathed heavily before pulling my hand to his face, then kissed my wrist

My eyes widened, and the atmosphere once against transformed as anticipation settled in the room. Rayana straightened up and nodded to one of the soldiers who was standing at the farthest corner of the room. I noticed him as one of the new recruits, then wondered just how the hell she even knew him. “Bruno?” She addressed him by his name, and I chuckled. In pure shock. The said Bruno stepped up and gave a respectful nod my way, then went ahead to stand beside my wife. “Show him that video.” She commanded on a low. The soldier shuffled with his breastplate to retrieve his phone, then scrolled a few times on it before lowering it to Lloyd’s line of sight. I watched as a package of emotions danced on his face. Shock that morphed into surprise, then relief. That too shifted into something else. “What is it?” I asked stepping closer. I stood by my side’s wife and coaxed her to look at me. “I found Lloyd’s wife and daughter. We were able to infiltrate Contini’s hotel room to free th

Chapter 98 ALEJANDRO POVThe tension in the rusty room was thick and cloying, the air dense and heavy to breathe. I pinched the bridge of my nose and stared at Rayana, restlessness making me queasy. I had no idea why she suddenly asked to take over. She had never taken a life before and I knew damn well what it meant for everyone who was new to all of this. She was not going to make it out of here unscathed. But her reasons were very valid. Which is why I stepped back with my legs parted, eyes snapped wide at her as she stepped into an amour I never thought I would see her in.“My lady, please. I did not mean to-”“To betray my husband and I? I know.” She nodded with mock understanding, her face void of any kind of emotions. My wife was just a little bubbly human who wore her heart on her sleeves. But this… This little thing in front of me was a whole other entity. My blood ran cold with what came next!“They had my family. My wife and my daughter… I didn’t know what to do.” Llo

Chapter 97RAYANA POVI yelped when Alejandro picked me up and spun me around like I weighed nothing. Laughter bubbled from out of me as I melted into his hold, passion and warmth looping inside in me to form a rush of vigor that leaked into my stream like hot lava. I cradled the sides of his head and leaned in to kiss him. Molten lava exploded inside of me, spreading little meteoroids of pleasure that held all of my cells captive when he claimed my lips in a searing kiss. We kissed like we didn’t have an audience; him staking a claim on me while I submitted to his plundering. He pulled back for breath, and his eyes sparkled with a dangerous gleam of pure need. “Wait until we get him, Little Wife. I am going to sure you just how much I appreciate you.” His chest rumbled with his words, and the promise beneath his tone made me weak in the knees. I shuddered as he placed me onto my feet, then walked towards Antonio and started barking orders. There was an unmistakable glint of s

Chapter 96ALEJANDRO POVThe tightness crowding my chest refused to leave even as I sat on the corner of our neatly made bed, watching her leave the bathroom dressed in a matching set of black lace panties and a bra. She looked so stunning, so carefree, but I was still mad. So mad at her and if I laid my hands on her, then I was going to hurt her. Obviously, the way I would punish her would only end up with her writhing against my cock, as I ripped heavy orgasms from her. So I just sat back, my hands balled into fists so hard I could feel the sting of my nails in the palm of my hands. She walked into the closet while casually scratching her back. “You still haven’t answered me.” “Huh?” Her voice was loud compared to my calm, collected tone. “I asked you what the surprise was.” Silence stretched for a few heartbeats before she peeked through the door with a mischievous smile. “Now what will be the fun of going all out to take care of it only to tell you about it?” She was strug

Chapter 95RAYANA POVI never actually thought I would succeed. When I came up with the plan to help my husband with one of his problems, there were just too many variables. Too many obstacles. If it wasn’t this then it was that… At some point I even harboured the idea of throwing in the towel and go back to being the little trophy wife who was nothing but a lavish ornament on my husband’s arm, but with everything that was happening, there was no way!I was well in the mafia world there was no way I was just going to sit still and do nothing. “Your man hit the bloody jackpot when he married you.” Kimberly mused, her arms folded across her chest, “You think I stand a chance? I mean you don’t mind swinging both ways do you?” She turned to look at me, causing me to scoff at her. We shared a serious look before the two of us burst out in a fit of laughter. The past week showed me I had made the right decision when I lured her under my wing. Kimberly was better off as a friend than

Chapter 94ALEJANDRO POVI was running out of time!With Nikolai’s birthday just a few days to go, I realized I had been doing nothing but slagging my ass off while waiting for my men to clean up the mess. At some point, I wanted to be mad at myself for relying on my subordinates. I thought back to times when I depended on nobody and did all the dirty work myself. The time when I didn’t have this much power lying on my shoulders. You see, that’s one thing about power that people are not ready to discuss. It’s fun being up on top, having people bow and worship the very ground you walk on. It is even sweeter when you have the money to accompany that authority; have so much money that you end up not knowing what to do with it any more. But the other side of it; the much darker side of it is that the higher you climb, the lonelier it fucking gets. I didn’t think of it before, but it was a bloody burden. One that seemed to have been weighing on my shoulders for so long I got used to th

"Sneaky little bastard.” Kimberly’s angry curse yanked me from my musings. I focused on her to find her watching the road ahead of us. I watched as the van drove passed us at the cross intersection. Kimberly pulled to the side, then craned her neck as she watched the car driving off, then taking yet another second exit. “He is going to Risari.” She informed me like I knew where that damn place was. “But since he is shady as hell, he avoided the highway.” She was muttering almost to herself, but I nodded either way. She sped off in a different direction. I was compelled to ask why the hell didn't we follow him, but I decided to trust her. We drove for not more than five minutes before she took a sharp turn, and that’s when I realized she’d just entered a whole neighborhood using a different route. She slowed down a little as she craned her neck to look for the shady car. I was about to tell her to turn around and follow the damn guy when she let out a maniac laugh.“Hahaha! Got y

Chapter 92RAYANA POVTo say I was scared would be an understatement of the century. I was puzzled right through and wondered how the hell I was able to stand there and not started shaking like a damn leaf as soon as the realization hit me. But I schooled my features and went through the tricks the man taught me. I hated to admit it, but he knew his damn craft and prided himself in it. Every little thing he taught seemed to because to work like a bloody charm; and I learned even things the internet couldn’t even provide. I decided to settle for pretense. I played into the role of the little novice girl chunked into the middle of the underworld: I let him help me and became that defenseless little thing he could snuff out with a simple twist of the neck. And like I had predicted it, he fell for it. He flexed his man ego, and I let him bath in his temporary glory. The more I praised him, the more he ballooned with pride. When I was done with him, I ran after him inside the house. I
