AUDREY’S POV

The second I stepped into the house, the silence engulfed me. It was deafening.

“Silence that gave me peace, now scares the shit out of me.” I mumbled, signing. Dreading the night alone.

Quickly, I shut the door behind me,double-locking it, just as Dante said. Then slid the chain across, making sure the whole thing was in place. I slightly opened the curtain to the side window, and Matteo's car was parked outside.

He didn’t wave, but I saw the low light of his cigarette.

Breathing a sigh of relief, I leaned my head against the door. "I didn’t ask for this," I whispered into the empty house.

It didn’t matter anymore. I was in it. Deep.

Dragging myself to the kitchen, I poured a glass of water, my hands trembling. My scrubs reeking of antiseptic and blood. I should have showered at the hospital. But after that… crazy encounter? I couldn’t stay there a second longer.

I shook my head, trying to get the whole drama out of my head.

  • FOREVER BOUND TO THE MAFIA DONN    A bit of peace?

    Audrey's POVSun penetrated through the curtains. It hit differently.—warm and golden, casting its shadow on the tangled sheets. Barely awake, my body aching in ways that left no room for confusion. Feeling so content knowing Dante's arm was wrapped around my waist, heavy and protective, his breath minty breath fanning the back of my neck slowly, and it tickled. A sigh of relief escaped my lips.In the moment, everything felt safe. Almost peaceful.Then I remembered the way he'd taken me last night. Not just taken.Consumed. Owned. Worshipped.Destroyed all at once.He shifted behind me and pressed a soft kiss between my shoulder blades."You awake, piccolo fuoco?"I smiled into the pillow. My voice hoarse, "Barely." He nuzzled my hair, his voice softer now."You're sore." It wasn’t a question.Rolling onto my back, groaning a little as I stretched. "That's putting it mildly."He smirked, his eyes softened, one hand caressing my side with a gentleness I had never seen before.

  • FOREVER BOUND TO THE MAFIA DONN   Duvet Dancing

    Audrey's povTessa’s unnecessary need to be in the same space as me irritated me. Thankfully, other nurses were close by making me feel safe. My hand kept going into my pocket to feel the pepper spray Dante gave me, even though Matteo had been replaced by one of Dante's other shadows—men I never saw, only sensed their presence.After the last call with Dante, he'd said he found Matteo. It was nearing midnight when I finally got to the house. I still didn't feel safe but I knew there were more than one guard watching this time.Preparing a cup of coffee to calm down after the draining day, I heard the knock.Not the doorbell. Just three deliberate, low taps. Firm.The house was quiet. Too quiet.I slowly walked toward the door, holding my breath. “Who is it?” I asked, voice low. Knife in hand.“It’s me,” came that familiar voice.Low. Strong, and wielding.Dante.I realised my breath. Immediately, I unlocked the door He stood there in all black, shirt half unbuttoned, hair messy,

  • FOREVER BOUND TO THE MAFIA DONN   The Reason

    DANTE’S POVThey took Matteo.Not killed. Not wounded. They took him. Which means, they wanted one thing.For me to find him myself. They wanted to bait the wolf out of his den. I knew it was a trap. But I love games.Audrey's voice still rang in my head from the call."She threatened me." She whispered over the phone. Her voice, shaking. It gutted me. My jaw tightened, gritting my teeth. I could still feel her bruised skin under my fingers, the tremble in her limbs when I held her after the attack. Her scent, her heat, the taste of her name on my lips. And now this?They touched what belongs to me.And Matteo, he'd saved her life.I gripped the starring wheel of the black Alfa Romeo as I drove off the main road, my tires screeching against Sicilian gravel. Sighting the coordinates of the warehouse Gulia dropped. Hidden just outside Catania. The scent of rust and rot filled the air as I stepped out of the car. Disguised.Walking down the house, an old Sicilian winery. If cour

  • FOREVER BOUND TO THE MAFIA DONN    Too Cold To Be Bold

    AUDREY'S POVDante's silence was heavy. He stared at the message on his phone. His jaw clenched so hard that I thought his teeth would break. I shifted under the sheets, suddenly aware that we were both still naked, our bodies tangled from everything we’d just done. Pushing aside the flurry of uneasy feelings from my chest, “What happened?" I asked again, sitting up, pulling the sheets over my chest. I watched his fingers move around his phone. Two taps. Then he locked the phone and dropped it onto the nightstand."Matteo's gone."My blood went cold."Gone?" My voice broke. "What do you mean gone?""Disappeared. No calls. No check-ins. The last visual was outside the house. Ten minutes after the attack. And then... nothing."I felt the air leave my lungs. “My God.”“But….”“Did you manage to see the attackers face?” Dante asked, cutting me off.“He had a scar on his left eye. He was masked.” Matteo had saved me. Dragged that monster off me. He escorted me to the bathroom, so I coul

  • FOREVER BOUND TO THE MAFIA DONN   Fricking Realization...

    AUDREY'S POVMy entire body kept trembling as I sat in the shower. Pulling my knees to my chest, the bath water ran down on me. — Steaming. It still didn’t help. Couldn’t get the attack off my memory.Matteo had dragged the attacker away, unconscious. But I couldn’t get his masked face off my mind, the brutal boom of his voice. The feel of his gloved hand choking me against that wall. The sinister look in his face That fucking scar. That smirk. I heaved again at the thought. The bile burned my throat as it rose, but there was nothing left to throw up. Just sobs and whispers left my mouth. Hugging myself , I held my ribs. He’d slammed me so hard I knew I’d have bruises. My shoulder ached from the hit, and the cut on my hand had reopened.Matteo hadn’t said a word as he escorted me off to the bathroom and told me to lock the door. Knowing he went back outside to deal with the body—maybe torture, maybe kill him, maybe both.I didn’t dare ask. Couldn’t care.But I couldn’t stop thin
