Ezabella Viper...

I watched as Jacopo Nicolo walked away from the bed and stood across from me, his back pressed against the drape-covered window.

"Go ahead," he commented.

I placed a laptop on my lap and waited for it to finish powering up. Anticipation was making my guts twist, that along with the fear of finding something horrible.

I truly didn't know what to expect and why my father kept the flash close to himself.

But I was going to find out very soon.

I plugged the flash in, and within seconds, it automatically opened.

I narrowed my eyes and leaned closer, trying to see what it was.

There was a single video, one that was seven hours long.

Goodness, why the heck was my father carrying around a video seven hours long? To what end?

Confusion clouded my head as I pointed the arrow in the video and double-clicked it, ready to see the secret my father was wearing around his neck and my husband was desperate to find out about.

The video started, and the first thing I heard was the

  • Forced To Marry A Broken Monster.   The older brother.

    Jacopo Nicolo...I stood in the dark hall, just silently staring at the woman sitting behind the drapes, softly sobbing.She was pulling a certain string in my cold heart.Her reaction to what was on the flash took me aback. It was not at all what I had expected from her.I recalled the terrified look on her face. She looked traumatized, like she was looking at something she had never expected to see before.I was curious as to what the flash contained. I was surprised when she went back on her words and offered to return the things I gave her in my home office. I had seen the fire blazing in her eyes when I gave her the things she had previously wanted, but I'd also seen them die down when she returned them back to me.Instead of reaching for the laptop, I walked after her, taking in a full reaction, wondering why she was suddenly breaking down.I didn't know what to do. A small part of me was telling me to return to the bedroom, so I would be able to retrieve the laptop and se

  • Forced To Marry A Broken Monster.   An eye for an eye.

    I sat in my office for seven hours without living a muscle, just watching the video without taking my eyes off of it.Victor Viper was not joking when he promised Eliot Williamson that he was going to make him cry like a little boy, make him piss and soil his pants. Victor Viper tortured the man who had tried to take his city and legacy away from him, along with his only daughter.I'd heard on the day Dante offered this marriage alliance to me, that Victor Viper's daughter was kidnapped by the enemy who took the Vipers away from him. I knew she was in the hands of a horrible man. I just didn't know the extent of what he must have done to her to earn this much torture at the hands of Victor Viper.It would be an understatement to say that Victor didn't hold back. He used every single tool he had at his disposal, every single item that would fall into his hands to torture the freaking life out of Eliot Willamson. He kept his promise by making Eliot cry and begging for a quicker death.

  • Forced To Marry A Broken Monster.   The only way out.

    The torture when on and Eliot ended up hanging on a lot longer than I thought he would.Victor had said that he should have started recording a while ago, which made me realize that the torture was a lot longer than seven hours.I sat through it all, watching and listening, learning and hating every last second of the video.My mind was exhausted by the time I was done. I have to say, I admired how adamant Victor Viper was when he took revenge for what had happened to his daughter. When the video was over and the laptop shut down on its own due to a lower battery, I stayed still, looking at my reflection through the dark screen.Watching that video made me doubt everything I thought I knew. Among the few things I have come to understand is that Victor Viper truly loved and cared about his daughter. That torture was not a matter of pride or anger due to the short-term loss of his power as the leader of the Vipers. It was all because of his failure to protect his only daughter.She wa

    Ezabella Viper...I stayed hidden behind the curtains even after I calmed down. I couldn't get myself to stand up. I couldn't get myself to leave the safety of the thick drapes. I stayed there even after the sun started setting, casting an orange glow on the sky.I stayed there even after the sky darkened, the flash still hanging from my hand.When I finally got myself to look down at the flash, I let out a tired sigh.My head hurt. My eyes hurt.My back and knee hurt.Every part of my body hurt.I slipped the string over my head and returned it under my hood before I finally forced myself to rise to my feet.I let out a soft hiss at the pain that shot up my knee, traveling all the way up to my right hip.I gently massaged my hip, hoping it would relieve the pain. I limped out from behind the drapes and came to a stop when I spotted Jacopo standing in the open kitchen, a bottle of water in his hand, his head tilted back as he drowned it whole.I walked over to the couch before h

  • Forced To Marry A Broken Monster.   Earn her trust.

    Jacopo Nicolo...I stood in the darkness of the bedroom, staring out into the darker hall. Despite how dark it was because I had turned the bedroom light off, I could still see her slowly limping towards the hall.My gaze was focused on her right leg, recalling one of the things Victor Viper mentioned what Eliot Williamson did to his daughter in that torture video.Victor had claimed to have seen a video of Eliot smashing Ezabella's leg with a metal bat, making her knee his main target. Victor Viper had tortured Eliot in the same way the other man had tortured his daughter, and a metal bat to both knees was something that he had to endure as payment for how he destroyed Ezabella's leg.I couldn't believe I was stupid enough to believe that she was faking it, making herself look more vulnerable by limping around. I thought it was to make herself look less vulnerable.Oh, how wrong I was to think that.I lifted my eyes to her face, seeing the slight excitement in her as she reache

  • Forced To Marry A Broken Monster.   The O.G. motorcycle club.

    I drove to the address Dante had sent me the previous day. I needed to find out what that address contained before I gave Dante a call.I bet he was furious with me for rejecting his call and then refusing to answer when he kept calling me.I needed to have something good to tell him when I finally do call him back just so he would be distracted enough not to shoot me dead, or worse, kick me off of the web.The address was a five-minute drive outside the city, and I wondered what connection this might have with Alex or the web.I arrived at the address and stopped my car in front of a large fence, the gates closed off from the rest of the world.I cut the engine and hopped out of my car. After closing the door, I walked closer to the gate that was strangled by the overgrown vine plants.I looked past the gate and the first thing that caught my attention was the many motorcycles parked in front of a large house.There was a single soul outside, but it was obvious that this might have b

    Ezabella Viper...I tried to keep myself busy by moving my things from Jacopo's bedroom to the guest bedroom I was going to stay in.It would be an understatement to say that I was more than happy to have a room of my own, a space I can retreat to whenever I feel low and need to be by myself.There is a huge possibility that Jacopo might have a spare key to the guest bedroom, but that was a detail I was willing to ignore. On the previous nights, after Jacopo and I had our dinner, I was more than happy to go to sleep on the couch. But Jacopo had to surprise me even more by giving me the key to the guest bedroom.I was more than excited to go see the room, the aspect of a hot shower just a few feet away from me making me want to squeal.I'd opened the door that night and locked myself in before I looked for the light switch.The guest bedroom was slightly smaller than Jacopo's room, but it was too big for only me. I'd looked around first, dragging my heavy belly around with me as I

    I was in the middle of trying to decide which resturant I was going to from when a noise at the elevator caught my attention.I startled, turning around to look at what was causing the sudden noise.There was a small light flicking in the panel and walked closer to see that the screen had lit up as well, showing a woman standing in the elevator, pressing the last button that would take her to the top floor, which was the exact apartment I was standing in.I leaned closer to the panel trying to get a better look at the woman. She didn't stop pressing the button, once in a while, before she would go back to aggressively pressing the button.I stood up straight, knowing well enough that I was not about to let a stranger into the house, but also wondering why she might be and why she was there in the first place.I reached into my pocket and took out my phone.The first person that came to mind was Ella Smith.I dialed her number and pressed the phone against my right ears, returning my

    Ezabella Viper...I had a lot on my mind to the point that I lost track of time. Ella's twin daughters were a great distraction, keeping Ella, Cilvia, and I company for the rest of the day.I got to see first-hand Ella in her mother mode, taking care of the kids with such care that it made me miss the baby I am yet to give birth to.I tried to spend as much time as I could with the kids. Ella even taught me how to properly change diapers. I tried my best to forget all of the drama, tuck it deep at the back of my head, and focused on the girls, so much so that Cilvia came to me just to whisper that I was going to make a great mother.Damn it if I didn't tear up at that moment. The day actually went by quickly, and before I knew it, we were putting the twins in their beds and gathering up in the sitting room after we had our early dinner, having a conversation over tea.We must have been in the sitting room for ten minutes before we heard the door open."They're finally back."

    Jacopo Nicolo...I parked my car near the front door of Dante's house and cut off the engine.A soft sigh escaped my lips as I leaned my head back against the head rest and closed my eyes.Damn it.I didn't want to be here.I wanted to be in the arms of the woman I love. Why was I here again away from her?Right. To interogate the shooters who almost took her away from me.I wanted to at least take a few seconds for myself, but I was interrupted by a quick tap on the window, jointing me out of my peaceful state.I glanced over and saw Victor leaning down to face me, the window fogging due to his breath at how close he was."You coming?" He asked, his voice barely making it into the inside of my car.Another sigh escaped my lips before I nodded my head, unlocked the door, and pushed the car open to hop out. I looked at Victor up and down, still wearing the same clothes he had on the previous night."Did you spend the night here?" I asked as I slammed the door of my cat shut.

    "Helena, hi..." Ella finally spoke into the phone, and it was obvious from her voice that she did not expect Helena to answer the phone."Hi." Helena chuckled at how awkward Ella sounded."How have you been?" Ella asked."I've been better. But honestly, I'm fine. More than fine, actually. I feel like I'm finally finding my footing again, you know, getting back on my feet. I feel like I can finally breathe again." Helena replied.Her enthusiastic voice and manner rubbed me the wrong way, and it was obvious that the other ladies were feeling the same way as well."The last time I saw you was at the Fimbar Mansion, and you really didn't want to look at us anymore, let alone speak to us. What changed?" Ella slowly asked, trying her best not to upset Helena."Well... I was a bit mean back then, weren't I?" Helena chuckled. "I was just a hit under pressure...""Under pressure from what?' Cilvia spoke up, and we looked at her. The three of us had agreed that if by some miracle the phone is

    Ezabella Viper...I woke up the next morning feeling refreshed, and it was not because I had the bed sleep ever of because I had the long sleep my body craved. No. It was because of what Jacopo did the previous night, and how he stepped into the shower knowing it was something his body didn't want him to do.This man was constantly putting his body in the line for me, and I don't know what more proof I could possibly need to know just how much he loves me.First it was running into a burning building for me, and then it was choosing to save me first, and then it was stepping in front of a bullet for me the previous night, and then on the same night, it was stepping under the warm water knowing he would have a bad reaction to it because of his horrible experience.It felt like I truly don't deserve the amount of love he has for me, like I haven't given him enough as much as he has given me.Waking up next to him after we had a scary night and then an amazing moment in the shower f

    Jacopo Nicolo..."What are you doing, Jacopo?" Eza asked as she watched me push my shoes off my feet and then lean down to take my socks off."I just told you..." I softly replied. "I don't want to stay away. I can't stay away."Once the socks were off, I pushed myself to my feet.I shrugged the suit jacket off my back before dropping it to the floor."Jacopo?" Eza whispered, realizing what I wanted to do.I carried on to unbutton my shirt no matter how hard the shaking of my hands tried to sabotage me. To succeed in taking my shirt off before I carried on to my suit pants.Once I was done peeling my clothes off, I looked towards Eza and the steam that was coming out of the shower from the hot shower.The second I started stepping closer to the shower, Eza reached for the shower nob to turn it towards the colder side."Don't, Eza." I called out, stopping her from turning the water off and then on to cold.I stood just outside of the shower, just out of the reach of the hot water.

    Ezabella Viper..."So, you decide to create a club of your own?" Cilvia asked, her back hunches and her elbows pressed against her knees as she attentively listened to the three women speak one at a time about their stories.I didn't even realize when it happened, but we were all suddenly talking to each other about our lives, sharing moments that we usually would not share with strangers."Yes." Red replied. "It was the only logical next step. We were able to find a fee working bikes from the last house we escaped from, and on the road, we were able to learn more and grow as a team. We got to take revenge and acquire more wealth from those men, which led us to get ourselves a small club house in a small town. People started hearing about us, and women and little girls started coming to us for help. Some needed help getting rid of people who were troubling them while others needed a place to stay. And so it all started. A small club grew bigger and bigger until we had to move to

    Jacopo Nicolo...I sat in the passanger sit of Victor's car, while Elijah and Dante followed us in Elijah's car. My heart refused to settle down, my head still filled with the image of that red dot on my wife's forehead.There goes my heart again, almost beating out of my chest with fear, fear that I could have lost her.My hands refused to stop shaking, itching for a trigger to squeeze, my nose desperate for the scent of the blood of whoever tried to kill my wife right in front of me despite my own blood already attacking my nostrils.I had to tuck my hands into my pockets to stop them from visibly shaking."Heard you stepped in front of a bullet." Victor commented. "Pretty brave of you." "Not now, Victor." I mumbled.I couldn't deal with the voice in my head, let alone get nagged by my father-in-law."I am trying to thank you for saving Bella's life." He said, forcing my eyes towards him."It's the bare minimum. I am her husband. That's what I'm supposed to do. I'm supposed to

    Jacopo was sitting in the sitting room the ladies of the web and I were chatting in earlier while the members of the web were having their meeting. I had calmed him enough to forget about his gun, and someone had suggested that we moved to the sitting room until a thorough search has been made around the area to make sure that there were no more shooters so it would be safe enough for the rest of us to leave.The only people left in the villa besides Jacopo and I were Ella and Elijah, Connor and Cane, the three women of the Motorcycle club, and Cilvia and Dante, along with my father, who was apartment in one of the bathrooms while everything was happening and only came the join the chaos while Jacopo and I were in each other's arms.I was sitting right next to Jacopo, his right arms around me while his left was balled into a fist as if he was trying to stop himself from reaching for him gun again."Dante?"

    Ezabella Viper...Most of the conversations after Piper Fimbar left were smooth. I tried to stay engaged in the conversation, but my mind kept going back to the conversation Ella and Cilvia had with Piper. I kept dissecting every single word she had said, every reaction she made to the mention of the Fimbar blood line, and I tried to piece everything together.But why Helena?Why was she trying to keep Helena away? Piper never liked Helena to begin with, and it was not like she hid it to anyone. So shouldn't she be the first to send Helena out of the house the second her son died?I was pulled out of my train of thoughts when the door was pushed in, and the men started pouring in."So, brunch tomorrow?" One of the ladies said before the men came closer.I wasn't aware that we were discussing brunch to begin with."Of course. I will look for a nice place and let you ladies know." Ella replied.I looked towards the door, waiting for Jacopo to come. But he didn't. It took him a whil
