ISABELLA

"Let go of me!" I shouted, scared and angry. I pushed him, hitting his face with my hands, trying to make him stop. But he wouldn't. He was like crazy, trying to kiss me until I was too tired to fight anymore. Finally, he stopped kissing me. He looked guilty as he stared at me. Slowly, I moved back to my seat, crying without making a sound. My body shook.

"Isabella…" he said quietly.

"Don't talk to me!" I said, my voice full of anger. The car felt small and trapped me with the bad feeling of what he just did.

Tears poured down my face, each one a burning reminder of how wrong I had been. The Dante I once cared for, the one who had whispered sweet nothings and made my heart flutter, was gone. In his place was this… this cruel stranger. Disgust twisted his features as he looked at me, and it felt like a physical blow. I turned away, trying to wipe the endless stream of tears, but it was no use.

“I don’t care if you cry,” Dante’s voice was cold, devoid of any warmth. “You didn’t

    ISABELLAUgh, this whole plane ride was just…suffocating. Every little shift, every shared glance with him sent a fresh wave of awkwardness crashing over me. Dante. Just the sound of his name made my jaw clench. And then, just when I thought things couldn't get any worse, he had to bring that up."Do you even recall the little vow you made a year ago, Isabella? About, oh, I don't know…becoming my wife?" His tone was tainted with amusement, like he was recounting a funny anecdote, not binding me to a life sentence."Don't be ridiculous, Dante," I snapped, my voice tight. "It was a desperate measure, something I said under pressure."He raised a perfectly sculpted eyebrow. "Pressure? Darling, I recall it as you practically begging for my help. And a deal is a deal.""A deal made out of very desperation!" I countered, my voice rising despite my best efforts. Heads were starting to turn. "You know I didn't mean it! You know I'd never willingly…" The words caught in my throat. Marry him? T

    ISABELLAOne month later, The loud bang on the door sent a jolt of pure fear through me, making my head spin. What in the world was going on? Enrique had just left for groceries; he wouldn't bang on the door like that. It definitely wasn't him."Enrique, is that you?" I called out, my voice trembling slightly. Granny Ellin was at church, it being Sunday, so I was alone. A knot of terror tightened in my stomach. Maybe someone was trying to break in."Who's there?!" I asked again, my voice shaking now as I slowly crept downstairs. Footsteps echoed from the hallway, and my blood ran cold. My eyes landed on a man in a black mask, and I could see three more figures lurking outside. My breath hitched. I spun around to run, but he was too fast, chasing me back inside. I scrambled to lock my bedroom door, but he easily kicked it open.I screamed for help, but he clamped a hand over my mouth. "Isabella..." he whispered my name, his voice sending a shiver of dread down my spine.I knew that vo

    DANTEThe silence in the mansion was heavy, like a thick blanket. Her being gone was real, a hole in the air of every room. I gripped the letter, reading it again. The fancy writing was a mean reminder of what she'd done. “You wanted to own me, Dante. Now you own nothing.” The words cut me deep.I was angry and felt betrayed. How could she do this? After everything I did for her, after the way I… cared for her, she used me. She played me like I was stupid. I pictured her leaving with that other man, the one Flora described. It made me burn with a cold anger.My men were looking everywhere – airports, ports, every lead. I had people watching, but she had just disappeared. This General, Enrique McCullen, was like a ghost. No recent trips, no friends outside the army. It was like he made her vanish.I couldn't even sleep. Her face was in my dreams, changing from scared to defiant. I remembered how she felt when I touched her, the way she sometimes looked at me like… like she cared. I was

  • His Auctioned Bride: Mafia's Ruthless Obsession   Chapter 31: Iceland

    ISABELLAThe cold Icelandic wind hit my face hard. It was so different from the humid air of the mansion I had left. This cold stung, but it also felt clean. I leaned against the porch of the small cottage. The expansive, dramatic view stretched out before me like a painting. Snowy mountains touched the gray sky. And the air felt quiet and old.Enrique and I had been here for three weeks. For three weeks, the air didn't feel dangerous. The quiet wasn't scary. My body started to relax. The tight feeling inside me from before was starting to go away.Granny Elín was Enrique's grandmother. She was strong. Her hands were rough but gentle when she helped me exercise each morning. Her Icelandic language sounded like music. I was slowly starting to understand it. It filled the cottage with stories and laughter. She accepted me without asking too many questions. She always offered strong coffee and her tasty rye bread.The first few days were tiring. I still felt like something bad was going

    DANTEI softened my gaze, offering Flora a semblance of warmth, though my eyes held a silent, menacing demand. "Now, tell me, Flora. What do you know?"Flora dissolved into quiet sobs, as if her very life was draining away with each tear. I clicked my tongue, the sound sharp in the tense silence. "Flora, I don't want to kill you or anything… but you most certainly won't die if you just tell me the fucking truth!"Her body trembled uncontrollably. I gestured to one of the guards, who offered her a bottle of water. She gulped it down, her thirst evident, before whispering, "Sir, please… I really don't know…""Flora, you know me," I said, my voice low and dangerous. "If you lie to me again…" I pulled my phone from my pocket, the screen illuminating her tear-streaked face. "Your son is going to pay for what you've done."Her eyes widened, overflowing with fresh tears. "Please, sir! Don't touch my son! He's only in high school, his life hasn't even begun!""Oh, really? Then why are you lyi
