LOGINSolane I had stood in a corner, ears pressed to the thin layered wall, hearing everything they discussed while hiding in a corner. Marcello agreed to engage Tonia. Hearing it alone irritated me. But my lips curled into a smirk as a thought entered my mind. Let them go ahead to do the engagement, I will see how long they are going to be together.My gaze drifted across the area, observing Don Vaka’s expression. The sinile man was up to no good. He is one main person I have to avoid if I want to carry out my revenge.Then, my eyes landed on Alex who sat at the corner of the room. He seemed to be unusually quiet and had his gaze cast down.Marcello had excused himself quickly from the gathering, making me wonder where he was going.I turned around quietly, about to head to my room when I slammed into a wall. “We're you eavesdropping?” Alex's voice boomed with curiosity as my eyes slowly met his.I took a step back, surprised by his fast locomotion. How did he get here quickly?“I see
MarcelloI walked in long strides into the casino, gaze focused in my office direction. Slow music played in the background as men cheered while playing cards.Few eyes followed me as two of my men walked by my side, escorting me to my office.“Where's Riso?” I asked in a low tone as I walked up the stairs.“He will be with you shortly, sir,” one of my men replied, lowering his head slightly.I walked into my office, going over to stand by the window side when Riso joined me.“Boss,” he greeted with a bow. “Where’s the spy?” My voice cut through the room, sharp with urgency.“Here's footage of the intruder,” Riso muttered, his voice on a quiet edge, turning the laptop towards me. My gaze fixated on the screen as he hit the play button. A masked person sneaked into my office and then came out a few minutes later.My office is the safest place to keep the information I had gathered so far about the file my late father kept in my care.My gaze drifted away from the laptop screen, slamm
Solane I shut my eyes close as the images of that night flooded into my mind. The loud sound of gunshot,blood splattered across the staircase and the bullet drilled into my father's head.‘I promise to avenge you, Dad.’I lowered my back on the bed, facing the ceiling, letting my thoughts drift to the question Alex asked me before we were interrupted.“Why did you kiss me?” His hoarse and raspy voice brushed past my ears.I stopped mid way, pulling away slightly to meet his eyes. His arm wrapped around my waist possessively and the air around us sinfully as we both got lost in our entangled betrayal.“Why?”“Are you doing this to get back at him?” he asked, gaze searching my face.I rolled my eyes, feigning nonchalant but deep down the question resonated in me. I wasn't the type to cheat but I just have to do this. It was my only way of escape in this cage.“I wanted it,” I muttered quietly. “Does that answer that?”His lips pressed into a thin line, unreadable line.“Would you have
MarcelloI knew that old man was up to no good, it was the reason I sent Alexander to protect Solane. Don Vaka had returned to the table, having some discussion with Nonnetta but then Alex wasn't back.Could something be wrong?I excused myself from the table politely, striding towards the kitchen, hoping to meet them there but it was empty. My gaze darted across the quiet hallway, eager to see her.I pulled out my phone, calling Alex's number as impatience built up in me. The phone rang repeatedly until it went into voicemail.At this point, my mind reeled on their whereabouts until I heard a door crack open as I walked through the hallway.“Hey Marcello,” Alex called, stepping out of the guest room. Trick of sweat cascading his forehead.My gaze darted away from him, looking towards the door behind him.“Solane isn't feeling too well. I was putting her to bed when your call came in,” heMy brows furrowed immediately, “Did he do anything to her?” I asked, my fingers tightened into fi
Solane I moaned into his mouth as his firm hands grabbed my buttocks, giving them a squeeze while my hand slid up his shoulders, intertwining my hands behind his neck while he continued to kiss me like his life depends on it. “How did you find me in the kitchen?” I asked against his lips, curiously.His lips left mine, kissing my neck down to my cleavage, “Marcello asked me to come stay with you because he was busy at work.”His lips found my lips again, kidding and nibbling as if he had always craved this.Who would have thought Alessandro has so much fire inside of him?I leaned into him despite the thoughts that ran through my mind, ‘Am I really doing this? It's wrong. Marcello would be angry if he finds out.’That explains it, I want to break him in every way I can, make him regret ever touching the person that matters to me most. I want him to feel the pain of being betrayed like he did to me.“Fuck! Lane,” Alessandro moaned against my lips. I broke the kiss, gaze fixed on hi
Solane I can't leave Marcello's side until I'm done ruining him like he ruined my family. Who does this man think he is, to take me for himself? Thinking of it, he sounds familiar. I heard that name recently.“I see you might be dying to know how I got this,” he drawled, a smug glint flashing in his eyes.My lips parted slightly, curious on how he was able to get the things I had kept perfectly hidden away.“You thought you could go Scot free after killing one of my men by causing an accident?” He said, eyes blazing with raw anger.My brows furrowed slightly as the dot began connecting. Was he the man who got me kidnapped? I recalled the kidnapper mentioning his name once.“You got me kidnapped?” I asked, my voice shaking with disbelief.His grip tightened around my neck slightly, “kidnapped? I simply bought you but you caused my man to die in that explosion after stealing his phone and gun,” he muttered darkly.“I only got to know that his phone and gun weren't in the wreck then it
Marcello The rapid beat of my heart echoed in my ears as I increased the speed of my car, my hands tightened around the wheels as the voices in my head wouldn't stop. My phone rang, cutting through the tensed air, it immediately connected to Bluetooth.“Riso,are there any updates?” I asked, tensio
Solane Panic rose in my chest as I could hear Marcello's footsteps approaching, my hands clutched the phone tightly not knowing where to hide it. My fingers brushed my hair backwards in fear, then mistakenly pressed the shower button, making the shower turn on, warm water splashed on me, worsening
Marcello“Stay inside. No matter what you hear,you mustn't come out,” the familiar but vague voice of father commanded Marcella and I. Then we were kept hidden away in a wall cupboard that was a mimic to the wail painting, making it hard for people to notice.“Don't be scared. I will come get you t
Solane.I smirked against Marcello's lips before breaking the kiss as both of us stared at each other, ignoring everything else like it doesn't matter. I almost laughed outside when I recalled what Tonia did an hour ago. “What's funny?” He asked with a furrowed brow as he brushed my lips with his
