DANTE'S POV

It felt like I was seeing her for the first time.

What I saw was a girl who had seen too much pain and still carried the pieces like shrapnel in her chest.

I pulled back slowly, hands curling into fists at my sides. Disgust burned at the edges of my skin, not at her, but at myself. What the hell was I thinking? Just one taste and I’d feel better? Like she was some drug I needed to flush out of my system?

My chest felt tight, like someone had wrapped wire around my ribs and kept twisting.

She whimpered in her sleep and curled deeper into herself. I watched her for another second before I forced my eyes away and moved toward the mess she had made.

The bottle lay on its side, mostly empty, amber liquid staining the rug. Her discarded glass was cracked where it had hit the table too hard. I gathered the pieces, set them aside, and started clearing up, something I hadn’t done for anyone in years.

That’s when I spotted it. Her freaking phone.

It was under the armchair, barely vi

  • Forbidden Desire: Tempted By My Stepbrother   A New Enemy

    DANTE'S POVI lifted Autumn effortlessly and carried her for the rest of the way out, which was exactly what I should have done, but I wasn’t thinking clearly.My mind was filled with conversation that she didn’t let Dominic and I have.I felt something warm dripping on my back, but I didn’t bother about it until I got to the opening where Dominic had signaled that the car was parked.“Open the door!” I barked at no one in particular.And the door was already open, waiting for us, and I saw it, but somehow, I just felt the urgency to say that.I got to the car and Dominic helped me to put Autumn in the car.“She is bleeding on her forehead,” Dominic stated.And that was when my eyes went to her head. Because I carried her on my shoulder, I hadn’t noticed, and now, I realized that it was her blood that was dripping on me.My own blood boiled with anger.“What happened to her?” Dominic asked, feeling her forehead and maybe checking to see if she was still alive, but we could both see th

  • Forbidden Desire: Tempted By My Stepbrother   The Aftermath

    AUTUMN'S POVWe remained quiet until Dominic arrived a few minutes later.“Is everyone dead out there?” I asked hastily, but Dominic’s attention wasn’t on me.He was focused on Dante. Something passed between them. Maybe a secret code or message, but I couldn’t tell. I wasn’t part of it.Then they walked to the corner of the room to have a conversation, and that pissed me off. I followed stubbornly.“Give us a moment, Autumn,” Dante told me, sounding as though he was passing a strict warning to a belligerent child.I wasn’t having it.“Why?” I asked, placing my hands on my hips and demanding for an answer.I was still shaken, and I couldn’t get the vision of what just happened out of my head. Before now, I only thought that these kind of things happened only in the movies, but clearly, I had been wrong.Since I took that flight and came down here, everything had changed.This was a different world, and with everything I had experienced since I was forced into this world of blood, ven

  • Forbidden Desire: Tempted By My Stepbrother   Taking Advantage

    DANTE'S POVI watched her as she took glass after glass of the whiskey until she seemed frustrated and dumped the glass, taking a long gulp from the bottle itself. I probably should have stopped her sooner. But I didn’t.I was still trying to figure out how to get us both out of here alive. In the middle of all that chaos, my phone had vanished, either ripped from my pocket in the panic or lost in the crowd. If it were just me, I would be halfway out by now.But with her I had to be more careful. I took a step toward her, just as she raised the bottle again.“That’s enough,” I said, reaching for it.She jerked away, but I was faster. My fingers closed around the neck of the bottle just as she staggered a little, the alcohol and adrenaline finally catching up to her. Her heel caught the edge of the rug and she twisted with a hiss of pain, stumbling into me.I caught her around the waist before she hit the floor. “Careful.”“Don’t touch me,” she snapped, pushing against my chest with bo

  • Forbidden Desire: Tempted By My Stepbrother   The Russians

    Autumn's POVHis arm was tight around me, his body practically shielding mine, and when I looked up, his face was the coldest I had ever seen it.David’s smile didn’t falter, but his jaw twitched. “Cugino,” he said smoothly. “I was just having a little chat.”“Then maybe next time, keep your hands to yourself.”If they weren’t in tuxedos at a black-tie event surrounded by CEOs and mafia heads disguised as businessmen, I swear one of them would have thrown a punch already.David held up his hands in mock surrender. “Of course. My apologies.”Dante’s grip around me didn’t ease, but his voice dropped into a deathly quiet register. “Try it again, and we’ll have a different kind of conversation.”David chuckled, stepped back, and gave a mocking bow. “Noted.”Then he turned and melted into the crowd. I exhaled shakily and stepped away from Dante’s grip, adjusting my dress and brushing imaginary dirt off my wrist where David’s hand had been. “You know, you could have stepped in about ten sec

  • Forbidden Desire: Tempted By My Stepbrother   Cousin

    AUTUMN'S POVI felt out of place the moment I stepped into the building.Everything screamed money, power and influence. And from how the attendants were dressed, one could tell that only the powerful were in attendance.The men looked sharp dressed in tailored suits, and the women sparkled with all their makeup and accessories . There were no name tags, cheesy music or tacky photo booths. This wasn’t just a company event.Dante didn’t speak to me as he led me through the grand hall. His hand rested on my lower back like I was something he owned. I hated how my body reacted to it.The room quieted in subtle waves as we passed, eyes trailing after him. But then it seemed like they were trying to figure out who I was and why Dante De Vale had brought me here. I was wondering the same damn thing.Just as I was about to whisper something snarky to break the tension, Dante leaned down, his lips brushing the shell of my ear. His breath was warm, but his voice was as cold as ice.“Be careful,
