LOGINYou thought we were done? 😭 Not quite. If you enjoyed Deadly Game: Seducing the Ruthless Mafia Lord, then get ready for a completely different kind of trouble. Because the next man I'm bringing you is not a Mafia lord… He's a billionaire CEO. And unfortunately for Melanie Reyes, she's about to insult him on a blind date…Only to discover the next morning that the man she humiliated is her new boss. 😭 FORGIVE ME, MR. CEO 💋 “Do you know who I am?” I rolled my eyes. “Should I?” His jaw tightened. “I'd suggest you find out before you embarrass yourself again.” I laughed bitterly. “Trust me, whatever your name is, I have absolutely no interest in remembering it.” He stared at me for a long moment before leaning back in his chair. “Interesting.” “What?” A slow, dangerous smile appeared on his lips. “You'll have plenty of time to remember it.” My eyebrows pulled together. “Why?” He picked up the file sitting in front of him and pushed it across the desk. I looked down. Then m
And just like that… DEADLY GAME: SEDUCING THE RUTHLESS MAFIA LORD has come to an end. 🥹❤️ I honestly don't even know what to say because this story has been such a journey. Thank you so much to everyone who stayed with this story from the beginning, especially those who kept reading even when the updates were slow, the plot got crazy, or you were probably screaming at your screen because of something one of these characters did. 😂❤️ Your comments, votes, reviews, and support meant more to me than you probably realise. To everyone who hated Nadia, Tyler and Delia with their whole heart… I saw you. 😂😂 And to those who loved Cassius and Crystal, I hope their ending gave you the happiness they deserved after everything they went through. This may be the end of their story, but I hope you remember them for a long time. Thank you for reading. Thank you for believing in my story. And most importantly, thank you for giving H.I Pearl a chance. ❤️ Until the next dangerous man and t
Three Months LaterZara’s POV Three months.That was how long it had been since the night everything almost fell apart.Three months since Nadia attempted to poisoned Cassius, Tyler turned against his own brother, Delia tried to kill me, and I had stood on that rooftop wondering whether I would make it out alive. I had used my skill to swing off the gun from her when she brought it out that day.Sometimes, when I closed my eyes, I could still remember everything so clearly, especially when Cassius appearing behind me when I thought I was completely alone. But those memories no longer controlled me the way they used to. They had become reminders of how close I had come to losing everything and how, somehow, after everything, I was still here.Alive.Happy.And married to the most complicated man I had ever met.I stood in front of the mirror, adjusting the small diamond necklace around my neck as I stared at my reflection. My hair fell perfectly over my shoulders, and the black dress
Cassius's POV I glanced at Raven, who was standing quietly in the corner of the room, and gave him a small nod to come forward. He immediately understood what I meant and stepped forward, his gun already pointed directly at Tyler, who froze the moment he saw it. Nadia, on the other hand, was still sitting on the chair, her body trembling as she struggled to breathe properly, one hand pressed against her chest while the other gripped the edge of the chair. Her face was already filled with fear and confusion as she looked between me and Tyler.“What happened? Why… why am I feeling this pain?” she asked, her voice shaking as another wave of pain seemed to hit her.I stared at her without the slightest bit of sympathy. “I warned you, didn't I?” I said, tightening my grip around the knife in my hand. “I told you that if you ever tried to kill me again, you'd pay for it.” I watched Tyler's face lose its colour as he slowly realised what was happening. “I switched the drink while you weren
Nadia’s POV“I'm sorry, really sorry, Cassius,” I said, forcing the sweetest expression I could manage as I picked up the wine from the tray the waiter had brought and passed it to him, holding mine in my left hand. My fingers were steady, but there was a wicked, hidden smile playing at the corner of my lips that I quickly concealed whenever he looked at me. The waiter glanced in my direction and gave me the smallest signal, and I immediately nodded, pretending I hadn't noticed anything. Everything was going according to plan. Everything was finally falling into place after so many failed attempts, and this time, I wasn't going to allow anything to ruin it.“I don't feel like drinking,” Cassius said, pushing the glass away slightly as he looked at me with suspicion. “I just stay because of Crystal. It's not like I've forgiven you.”His words stung, but I forced myself to smile because I couldn't afford to show him how much they angered me. Even now, after everything I had done, he w
FIVE DAYS LATERZara’s POV“Are you feeling any pain currently?” the doctor asked, looking at me carefully as he checked the notes in his hands. I shook my head immediately, trying to look as strong and healthy as possible because I was tired of lying in that hospital bed. Five days had already passed since I woke up, and even though the doctors kept insisting that I needed more rest, all I wanted at that point was to get discharged and finally go home. Well, not exactly my home, but Cassius’s home, which somehow already felt like mine after everything that had happened. I mean, ive been living there for months now.“No, I’m strong and capable of anything,” I replied confidently before suddenly jumping off the bed to prove my point, only for a sharp pain to shoot through the areas where I had been operated on. My entire face almost twisted from the pain, but I quickly forced it back into a smile and pretended nothing had happened. There was no way I was going to let the doctor see t
Cassius's POV ********************************** "Get everyone on the lookout, I would be there in ten minutes." I said into the phone, locking my apartment door behind me. My gaze drifted to Zara’s door across the hallway. Annoying bitch. Her audacity grated on my nerves, but I couldn’t deny th
Zara's POV "What?" I gasped. "I really didn't do anything." "We shall see about that." he said, stood up, hissed, and left for the dining room. Fuck. My body still tingles from his hand on my nipple. Is that how he played with everybody's feelings? Zara, I think you are really the person here pla
Zara's POV I looked at myself in the mirror one last time. Perfect. Handsome bastard, here I come. I packed my luggage, and damn it, they were too heavy. I had crammed in everything I could think of: outfits for every occasion, a few weapons for protection, lingeries. I needed to be prepared. A k
Zara's POV 12 YEARS AGO I froze in my place as I looked at the sight ahead of me. My mom and dad were covered in their own blood on the floor, and two men stood over them. One of the men held a glowing iron rod in his hand. They hadn’t seemed to notice me as I quickly hid behind the door, my h
