Rosa POV

I waited until the building was quiet.

The calls had been made and the cleanup was handled and Klaus had come and gone with reports I didn't ask to hear. Raffaele had spent the evening in his office with the door closed and I had spent the evening in the kitchen pretending to read a book and trying not to think about the blood on his shirt.

At midnight I walked to his room.

He was sitting on the edge of the bed. He had changed his shirt and the bandage was fresh and his face was tired

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    The Morning That Shifts

    Rosa POVIt was a quiet morning. No crisis, no mafia, no training, no emergency calls or locked doors or any of the things that had filled the last few weeks with tension and fear. Just a Tuesday. Just a kitchen. Just the two of us moving around each other like we had been doing it for years.I was making eggs. He was making coffee. The sun was coming through the windows and the city was waking up outside and everything felt normal in a way that should have been boring but wasn't."Your coffee is too strong," I said."It's not too strong. You just don't appreciate good coffee.""I appreciate good coffee. That is not good coffee. That is engine cleaner."He poured himself a cup and took a deliberate sip, looking at me over the rim with that face he made when he knew he was right and he was waiting for me to admit it."It's perfect," he said."It's aggressive.""Coffee should be aggressive."I shook my head and turned back to the eggs. I could feel him watching me and I didn't turn arou

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    The Leak

    Raffaele's POV The Moretti had inside information about my schedule. They knew when I would be leaving the building on the night of the attack. They knew which route my car would take. They knew where my security would be positioned. That was not luck. That was not guesswork. That was someone inside my operation feeding them details.The audit took four days.I turned over every person who had access to my calendar, every driver, every security detail, every staff member who came and went from the building. Klaus handled the interviews. I handled the phone records and the bank accounts and the digital trails that people always thought were invisible.The leak was a man who had been with me for eleven years. He was quiet and efficient and unmemorable, the kind of person you forgot was in the room, which was exactly why he had been useful to the Moretti. He had a sick child and a mountain of medical bills and the Moretti had put money in his account and he had told them everything.I s

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    She Tries To Leave

    Rosa POVThree days after the graze incident I panicked.It didn't happen all at once. It built slowly, the way a wave builds before it breaks, and by the time I felt it coming it was too late to stop. The feeling of being terrified when he walked in bleeding had been sitting in my chest and it wasn't going away. Every time I looked at him I saw the blood on his shirt. Every time he left the room I wondered if he would come back. Every time his phone rang I held my breath.It meant I was too far in. It meant I had something to lose. And everything I had ever known about having something to lose was that it got taken. My father left. My mother got small and quiet. My family's security was a folder on someone's desk. Nothing I loved stayed safe.I packed my bag in forty minutes. Not the bag I had arrived with, but the one I had acquired over months of living here, the one that held my clothes and my books and the small pieces of my life that had migrated from my dorm to his building. I

He had changed his shirt and the bandage was fresh and his face was tired in a way that made my chest ache. He looked up when I opened the door and his eyes were dark and steady and he didn't look surprised to see me.I closed the door behind me and I leaned against it and I looked at him."I need you to be here," I said.He didn't ask what I meant. He didn't ask me to explain. He just looked at me with those dark eyes and said, "I'm here."I crossed the room and I didn't stop until I was standing in front of him. I put my hands on his face and I looked at him and I l

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    He Gets Hurt

    Rosa POVI was in the kitchen making tea when I heard it.The good tea had finally been restocked and I was standing at the counter with the box in my hands and the kettle on and I was thinking about nothing more complicated than whether I wanted honey or not. Then the sound came through the walls, through the floor, through the whole building. Not an explosion. Something sharper. Something closer. Gunfire. Multiple shots. Close enough that I felt it in my chest.The box of tea fell out of my hands and hit the floor and I didn't pick it up. I stood there in the middle of the kitchen with my heart stopped and my hands frozen and my brain trying to catch up with what my ears had just heard.The building had security. Raffaele had men everywhere. He had Klaus. He had layers of protection that I didn't even know about. He had told me a hundred times that he was safe, that the building was safe, that I didn't need to worry.But the sound was still echoing in my ears and my hands were shaki

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    Lost Count

    Rosa POVThe lockdown started the morning after he told me about the Moretti attack. I woke up and he was already awake and dressed and he sat on the edge of the bed and looked at me with that face he made when he was about to tell me something I wasn't going to like."You're not leaving the building today," he said.I looked at him and I didn't argue. I didn't ask how long or why or any of the questions I would have asked two months ago. I just nodded and sat up and pulled my hair back and said okay.He looked at me for a second longer than necessary, like he was waiting for the fight, like he didn't quite believe I wasn't going to give him one."That's it?" he said."That's it.""You're not going to tell me I'm being controlling or unreasonable or that I can't lock you in like a prisoner?""I could," I said. "But I'd be wrong. You're not locking me in like a prisoner. You're locking me in because people attacked your men and sent a message demanding my release and you're trying to k

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    Embarrassment Level: Catastrophic

    Rosa’s POVI woke up slowly, light leaked through heavy curtains in thin gold stripes across the bed. My mouth tasted like metal and regret.My head throbbed in time with my heartbeat. I tried to sit up and the room tilted so hard I had to grab the sheets to stay upright.That’s when I noticed Kyli

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    One Love, One Devil

    Raffaele’s POV The penthouse felt different up here, away from the girls downstairs. Luca’s space was all sleek lines and dark wood, a mirror of our family’s world, but with Kylie’s touches scattered around: a soft throw blanket on the couch, fresh flowers on the bar cart. It made the place fee

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    Caught

    Rosa’s POVThe second I realized he’d seen me flip the photo my face caught fire all over again. I stood there frozen in his office doorway, robe slipping off one shoulder, heart slamming so loud I was sure he could hear it. I’d been caught red-handed snooping through his things, touching something

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    Fever

    Raffaele’s POVThe doctor stepped back from the bed, peeling off his gloves with that calm practiced snap that always made me want to punch something. “Her drink was spiked,” he said, voice level like he was reading a weather report. “Rohypnol most likely, judging by the symptoms and the timeline.
