I shut my eyes, trying to stop the memory from jumping to the front of my head. Anger was uncontrollably making my chest ache, and I wanted to forget it all and drive away, to get me the heck out if there and return to my wife.

I ran my gloved fingers through my hair, pulling at the strands to help me return to reality.

I started the car again, deciding to get it over with. I drove up to the gate and went through security, and it was led to the visiting room.

I hadn't realized how much time I had taken in the car, drawing in painful memories, but I had noticed that the sun was a lot further than it was when I left Elijah's mansion.

I sat on the chair in front of the glass window and stared at the empty seat. I waited for a few minutes, listening to other visitors talk to the inmates.

There was an old woman to my right, softly speaking to the woman I assumed was her daughter sitting on the other side of the door, the phone gently held in her wrinkly hand. And there was a man t

  • Forced To Marry A Broken Monster.   Burning Building.

    "The first time I met Attiwood, she told me how weak you were when it came to women, claiming that your father might have done a number or two in your mother when you were nothing but a little boy. She told me how you would be easy to play, and all I had to do was cut her a deal when I ended up taking everything from you. You just had to survive that fire and ruin all of my plans." Elizabeth sighed with annoyance."I'm going to give you a last chance to get to your point before I leave." I snapped, fed up with everything.Elizabeth only ended up smirking even more.Goodness, I hate her."I thought maybe the fire would have changed you to not care about anyone else but yourself. I thought it would make you stop being so weak. But I was wrong. It's funny how you kept that new wife of yours alive."I stood up, ready to leave."Wait." She called out. "If you leave without agreeing to help me get out of here, then that poor, poor wife of yours will suffer for it."My frown deepened as I lea

  • Forced To Marry A Broken Monster.   Burn with her.

    It was molting hot in the building. My body would have instantly lost all of its strength if adrenaline wasn't coursing through my veins.I took my suit jacket off and pressed it to my face, covering my nose and mouth to lessen the intake of smoke.Everything was blazing, fire licking every surface of the wall.My heart was frantically beating in my chest, my body begging me to get out of there and save it from suffering the same scars again. But my mind was on one thing and one thing only, and that was finding my wife and saving her from the fire."EZABELLA!" I called out as loud as I could, hoping to hear her call back.I ventured deeper into the building, avoiding the flames and keeping the jacket pressed against my mouth and nose, even though it was barely working.I felt a strong grip on my shoulder, and for a second there, panic shot through my body, my brain convincing me that my shoulder caught on fire.I was wiped around with such a force that U almost stumbled forward."WHAT

  • Forced To Marry A Broken Monster.   Too weak to save.

    Ezabella Viper...The day could not have gone any worse. The morning was fine, except for the tension that was caused by the details about his ex-wife that was sent by Miles, the tech guy for the web.I was glad we went on a ride, and I was happy to see Ella and Cilvia. Cilvia was making a great deal of jokes , making Ella and I laugh before Jacopo appeared in the open kitchen. The way he looked at me and the tension on his shoulder let me know just how concerned he was of something. Jacopo didn't want to tell me what was wrong, I knew so by his dismissive words as "It's web business." He says that when he doesn't want to tell me what was going on.While I'd wanted to ask him more questions, all I could say was for him to stay safe.I could barely enjoy the rest of the time we were in the mansion. Everyone knew there was something wrong, and when Ella couldn't take it anymore, she marched herself to her husband's home office to ask him what the meeting was all about. When she

  • Forced To Marry A Broken Monster.   Another scar.

    Jacopo Nicolo...I wasn't aware of how time was passing after I'd heard that my wife was alive. I had every intention to drive to her as soon as possible and see her with my own two eyes, even though I, myself, was not in the right mind to drive anywhere."I'm taking Ella in my car. You drive Nicolo with yours." Elijah had said to Dante before he carried with wife to his car.Dante, still cursing me under his breath, pulled me by the arm and led me to his car.The majority of the ride to the hospital, Dante didn't stop yelling at me for being so reckless and almost killing him along with me. And I had to remind him that I never told him, even once, that he had to follow me into the burning building.The glare I received after that comment should have been enough to kill me right where I sat.I will have to admit however, that my eyes kept watering once in a while no matter how many times I tried to blink them away or wipe them from the corner before they could slid down my cheek

    Ezabella Viper...I sat up on bed, a pillow proved behind me to support my back.I looked around the hospital room. Ella and Cilvia were both up, and after they tried to come to me to see if I was okay, they were instructed to sit back and rest by Elijah Smith. So, they, too, mirrored my sitting position, throwing their eyes around the hospital room.It seemed everyone had a single question, but no one wanted to bring it up first."Do you need anything?" My father asked, sitting at my bedside."No. I'm good." I replied, looking at him. Look at me with the it most worry in his eyes."When did you get here?" I asked."About an hour ago." He replied. "I came as soon as I heard about the incident." I nodded my head, feeling awkward as I once again looked at the other ladies."Your painting?" I asked Ella, and she shook her head."All gone." She whispered, and I saw her husband reaching out to her again, giving her hand a squeeze before pulling her into his arms.Where is my husband?

    The setting could not be awkward and nerve-wracking anymore than it already is.My husband and my father were having a face off, standing freakishly close to each other as they exchanged words.My father wanted to take me back to Viper City, and Jacopo was not having any of it."Eza is my wife. My responsibility. She is staying here, where I am, and that is the end of this conversation." Jacopo snapped.My father stepped closer to Jacopo."Stop it, dad." I whispered, but of course, he wouldn't listen to me."Do you two need us to leave the room for you?" Dante asked, breaking the ice.My husband and father glared at Dante for his comment, yet he looked at them as if he meant what he said, and he did not apologize for it."Right." Dante continued. "If you two are done, we would like to discuss the matter at hand here. Shall we?" He said, staring at Jacopo as if he was waiting for him to continue.Instead of just jumping at the conversation and doing what Dante wanted him to do, Jacopo

    The awkwardness in the room did not get any better after the comment Dante made, but it seemed Jacopo was not paying attention to any of them at all.His focus on me and me only, and I felt my cheeks heat under his eyes.Goodness. What is this man doing to be, being all worried and affectionate towards me in front of other people?I loved every bit of attention he gave me, but I just wished he didn't look like he was blaming himself for the accident."So, Victor Viper..." Dante called out, drawing the attention back to the conversation that was being had. "Tell me. What is this all about the Vipers still helping Elizabeth Williamson?" All eyes turned to my father, and he glared at each and every single one of us, even me, as if I too was accusing his people of helping a family member that tried to destroy his people."Do you honestly think any of us would help her?" He snapped."Alex Fimbar has no reason to lie to me." Dante commented. "He explained how some of the Vipers trapped him

    My father stepped closer to me, sitting on the edge of the bed and giving his back to the rest of the room."Bella?" He softly called out, his voice low so the rest won't hear him. "This place is not safe for you anymore. I need to take you back home and...""Dad?" I called out as softly as I could. "I am not going anywhere but my home here. Safety is not guaranteed, whether it's here or in your city. But I'd rather be here.""Why, Bella?" He asked, desperation in his voice.I looked past his arm towards my husband, who had his eyes on my father and I. "I have a reason to stay and someone to stay with." I replied, my eyes still on Jacopo, my heart wildly beating at the realization of how much I enjoyed being here with that man despite the rocky start we had.My father remained silent for a few seconds, his eyes moving from left to right as if he was trying to think of what he would say to me next that would make me change my mind.My father glanced over his shoulder towards Jacopo an

    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
