WITHOUT HESITATING FOR a second, Adriano growled under his breath and went after Clarance. He caught her near the stairs and pulled her to the side, his grip firm on her arm.

“Oops,” Clarance said with a mischievous smile, not the least bit startled as her back pressed against the wall.

“What did you do, Clarance?” Adriano asked in a low and dangerous voice.

“Oh, hello darling,” she whined in that falsely sweet tone that once used to soften him. “I didn’t know you would be here. What a pleasant surprise.” She arched her back deliberately, pressing closer so her belly rubbed against his crotch.

“Don’t play games with me!” Adriano snarled, slamming his hand against the wall by her head. The sound cracked through the corridor. He leaned in close, his eyes sharp with fury. “I don’t know what you think you’re doing, but I suggest you stop before you hurt yourself.”

Clarance only laughed, the sound light and mocking. “We both know you can’t hurt me,” she whispered. Her hand slithered up, c

    ADRIANOFABIO PLACED A jug of beer on the table and sat down beside Adriano. "You should go and have a word wirh Father." He said. "I know you are stubborn and you are not going to leave your fiance for anything, but still... talk to my father about it. I am sure he will understand.""Will he?" Adriano raised an eyebrow.Fabio nodded. "Definitely."Adriano scoffed. He drank the beer and sighed, leaning back, relaxed. "I never wanted my daughter or fiance to get involved with my past life."Fabio chuckled. "Trust me, I understand that.""But Mira -""Mira is the daughter of one of the most ruthless drug lords in Slavian country," Fabio said. "She got the ruthlessness from him. Don't be deceived by her flowery dress and soft voice, she can handle a gun better than both of us."Adriano looked at Mira as she wiped the counter with a wet napkin."Do you guys need cookies?" She looked up. "I made a fresh batch.""Yes, honey," Fabio answered."I was not talking to you, husband," she muttered

    ADRIANO"I NEVER EXPECTED you to get married," Adriano said as they walked out the dining hall and made their way to the back of the mansion. "Much less you have a family of your own, and a daughter."Fabio chuckled. "I never expected it too, but well, it happened."Adriank snorted. He understood that very well. "And why didn't you marry from a much closer family?" He asked, turning to look at Fabio. "You could have married into the Valerion family, just as your father had planned for me.""Well, to be fair, the girl has changed from being ugly," Fabio replied. "I think she went to do some sort of surgery. She has changed. She looks exactly like your type now."Adriano scoffed and muttered under his breath. "I doubt."It was clear that the girl that Salvatore had wanted him to marry was no different from Clarance, and Laura. All snobby, pretty-face with a banging body, but mean and evil hearted. "I doubt she is my type.""Oh really?" Fabio raised an eyebrow. "What is your doctor fian

    ADRIANOADRIANO COULD NOT believe what he was hearing. He stood up abruptly, pushing his chair back sharply. "Sit down, Adriano," Fabio grunted. "Father is still speaking.""You are going to bring your engaged wife here to Italy," Salvatore said in a low voice.Adriano laughed dryly. He did not care of the respect and power that the Salvatore family of Italy held, he was not going to bring Avery, or Iris into this. He was never going to get them involved with this."Is something I said funny, Adriano," Salvatore asked."Non, Signore," Adriano said. His eyss were little slits as he continued. "My fiance is a doctor-""What type of doctor?" Salvatore asked."A shrink, papa," Fabio said. "She is a therapist.""Is she connected with any family?" Salvatore asked. "What do you stand to gain from the union?"Adriano sighed and sat down. He gained peace, stability and unending love from the marriage, but he did not explain that to Salvatore and Fabio. They would not understand."You do not g

    ADRIANO ADRIANO SLOWED TO stop in front of the grand villa and got out.Word must have reached the house that he had arrived because men were waiting for him at the gate. They gestured for him to step aside from the vehicle, which he did without argument, then they proceeded to frisk and check if he carried any weapons.When they were certain that he was not with any weapons, they allowed him to walk in."We thought you would not come," a tattooed man said in a small voice as they headed for the front door."I almost didn't," Adriano replied truthfully. "But I knew that your father would probably come to have my head, Fabio."Fabio laughed heartily. "No, he won't. Father likes you. I think he is more fond of you, than even of me, his own son."Adriano rolled his eyes. During his younger years, he had spent a lot of time on these grounds. His father had sent him to work for the Salvatore family as collateral while he tried to pay up his debt.The house had been repainted and refurbish

    ADRIANO"WE WILL BE landing in a few minutes, sir," the pilot's voice called through the speakers. Adriano sighed and removed the cover on his window slightly. He peered out, seeing the bright roofs of the houses and the bright sun.He sighed and closed it, leaning back. He heard the annoyance in Avery's voice when he told her he was traveling, but there was nothing he could do about it. He did not want her to be involved in this part of his life.Adriano had received a strange call the previous day, thinking it was a normal business call from one of his partners, he had picked up the call.It turned out to be the mafioso family in Italy. He was being summoned.That part of his life was something he often tried to ignore or pretend did not exist, but now his past was catching up with him.He could guess why the sudden call came even though he had cut ties many years ago. He had a deep sinking feeling as the plane touched down and taxied down the runway."We are here, sir," his airhost

    AVERYIT HAS BEEN two days since Clarance abducted Iris, and things were starting to die down. Adriano informed the police that it was just a misunderstanding, and he did not press charges. Iris seemed to be doing better, too. The event did not affect her as much as we thought it would. She was already a happy and secure child, so she easily bounced back.As I sat in my office, lazing about, I gazed the the ring on my finger. It sparkled and reflected light in different angles. There was no doubt that it was very expensive. It would be pure gold and diamonds, I was sure. I held my hand up to take a clearer look at it."Avery Quinn Mancini," I muttered. It doesn't sound that bad. It definitely had a good ring to it. I chuckled and ransacked my bag to bring out my notepad, but then I saw a small black card. I took it out and saw the name Jean Carter written in stylish cursive letters. I frowned and then remembered the man who had approached me a few weeks ago, begging me to attend to hi
