LEONA'S BEEN DRUGGED

Marco’s POV

I swear my chest never stopped burning from the moment I saw that space empty on the stage.

She was there one second, her face in the crowd, her smile trying to hold steady even though I knew she was scared, and then gone. Like air ripped out from my lungs, like I blinked too slow and they stole her right under my nose.

Cassie screamed first, I remember that, her voice breaking through all the noise of cameras and people clapping.

Luca was already pushing, shoving, running through bodies like he thought he could claw her back with his bare hands. And me… I froze for one fucking heartbeat too long.

My legs felt like stone and my brain was already drawing blood.

When I moved, I moved like a madman. Shoving suits out the way, grabbing collars, yelling her name until my throat burned raw.

“LEONA!” Nothing.

Just the echo of her name in that hall like a ghost. By the time I broke out into the parking lot, tires were already screeching, black vans pulli

    The Blood Brother (FLASHBACK)Valerio POVI still remember the sound of Rafael’s laugh. That stupid, careless laugh that made everyone in the room turn and look. Like light followed him wherever he went. I hated that about him. Hated that he made our father proud without trying. And maybe… maybe I loved him too. I don’t even know anymore.He wasn’t supposed to fall for Jessica. That girl with the soft eyes and that fire inside that she tried to hide. I saw it the first time she walked into the house, holding Rafael’s arm like she belonged there. I knew she didn’t. She didn’t belong with him. But he looked at her like she was something holy, and I— I looked at her like a curse.We were brothers, blood brothers. We’d promised once, as kids, cutting our palms open in the garden behind the estate, swearing that no woman, no war, nothing would come between us. I still see that scar sometimes, even now, though it’s faded and ugly. Like the memory of what we were.Father always said Rafael

    MY MOTHER'S MIRROR LEONA POV My head started pounding immediately my eyes fully opened like someone poured acid on my skull. My lips wouldn’t move right. I tried to speak, but the sound came out small, like a broken radio. I think I said Marco’s name. Or maybe I only thought it. I don’t even know anymore. The floor was cold under my bare legs, sticky too, and when I looked down, I saw glitter on my skin. Glitter — from my graduation dress. It looked wrong there. Then I heard a laugh — slow, stretched out, like someone enjoying the sound of it too much. “Finally awake, slut.” Valerio. Even drugged, I knew that voice. It crawled under my skin, the kind that smiled while it killed. I blinked hard, the room shifting, blurring into two, then three shapes, and behind Valerio’s smirk was another face — sharper, quieter, darker. Giovanni. His eyes didn’t blink. They just watched, studying me like I was something he’d been waiting to see for years. Something twisted in my stomach. I

    FEELING MARCO ON MY SKIN Leona POVIt was cold. Or maybe it wasn’t. I don’t really know. Everything felt... wrong. Like I was floating but not moving, breathing but not alive. My head throbbed. There was something sharp in the air, something like metal and smoke and—I think blood?I tried to move my arms but they didn’t move. Rope maybe. My wrists hurt. I don’t remember when they tied me. I just—one minute there were flashes, cameras, Cassie shouting, Luca’s hand holding mine. And then... black.Now it’s just this humming sound in my ear, and the smell of... I don’t know, maybe the same cologne from before. Not Marco’s. I’d know Marco’s smell anywhere. This one is older, colder. Like someone pretending to be clean when they’re not.“Marco,” I tried to say, but my voice cracked. Or maybe I didn’t say it, maybe I just thought it. Everything sounded too far away.I tried to open my eyes—god, they burned—and I saw light. Too bright. A camera, maybe? Red little dot staring back at me like

  • Forbidden Pleasure: Sex, Secrets & Scandal   THE GRADUATION

    Leona POV When morning came I didn’t even feel like it was morning, I felt like I had been awake the whole night, even if my body had collapsed at some point. The dream… it clung to me like sweat that wouldn’t wash off, like a stain under my skin. I woke up with the taste of Marco still in my mouth, his voice echoing.I blinked at the ceiling for too long, like maybe it would blink back at me, and when I finally turned my head the first thing I saw was the gown. My graduation gown, laid out on the chair Cassie dragged from the corner, ironed flat like it was waiting for me. I hated it for a second. It looked like a life I didn’t deserve, like someone else’s clothes I was stealing. The girl who wore that was supposed to be happy, normal, untouched. That wasn’t me. Not anymore.“Leo, you’re up?” Cassie’s voice came through the door before I even answered. She barged in anyway, messy bun and bright eyes, holding her stupid phone like always. “Today’s the day, babe. You ready to slay

    LUCAS INFORMATIONLEONA'S POVI thought the night would end when Marco stormed in, when his fists scattered men like broken glass, when Luca pulled at his arm and I screamed that Giovanni wanted this fight. I thought maybe after the shouting and the blood and the way Marco held me, maybe I could breathe again. But it didn’t stop. It never stops.Because the next morning the silence felt wrong. Too wrong.I kept catching myself looking at the window in Cassie’s room, waiting for something—someone—to be there. When I pressed my face to the glass there was just the empty road, the neighbor’s car, the faint hum of the city. But my skin still prickled.“Leo, you’re just tired,” Cassie said when she found me standing there again, arms wrapped around myself. She rolled her eyes like she wanted to laugh but didn’t want to be cruel. “Or you probably now seeing ghosts.”I wanted to laugh too. But my throat closed instead. Ghosts, yes, maybe. Giovanni was like a ghost that wore flesh, that brea
