His Dark Desire: The Devil’s Bride Chapter 27 - Mi Principessa
Bella’s POVI woke up early, earlier than I normally do.My body felt heavy, sore in places I didn’t want to think about.The massage gun sat on the floor where I’d kicked it last night, silent now, but it might as well have been screaming. I had no idea why I let him control me like that but I wouldn’t waste another second on that thought.I couldn’t stay in bed. So I pulled on my trainers, leggings, and a loose hoodie, tied my hair back, and slipped out the back door before anyone could ask questions.The air was cool against my face when I was running — slow at first, but every time I remembered his voice and the way I moaned to his command, I ran faster like I could outrun the memories.Zayden’s voice rang in my ears. The hum of the gun.The way my hips rolled against it even when I begged him to stop.I pushed harder and my lungs burned.“Come on, Bella, slow down.”Lucia’s voice cut through the heaviness of my breathing.I glanced back — she was jogging to catch up, her ponytail
His Dark Desire: The Devil’s Bride Chapter 26 - Sleep Tight Darling
Zayden’s POVFor a moment, the room went completely silent. I studied Nico’s face to see if he was joking. He wasn’t.My jaw tightened slowly.“Bella’s mother,” I repeated.Nico nodded once. “She contacted one of our outer channels earlier tonight. Said she needed to speak with you directly. No intermediaries.”I walked toward the window, looking out over the dark gardens of the grand estate.Bianca Mendoza. Alejandro’s wife. Bella’s mother.The same woman who had spent the last three years standing quietly beside the man who destroyed my family. And now she wanted a meeting.“Did she say why?” I turned to ask.“No, sir.”Of course, she didn’t.Women like Bianca Mendoza didn’t show their cards so easily.I rubbed my jaw slowly, thinking. This could be a trap. Alejandro might be testing the waters, trying to see if I’d bite.But something in my gut told me otherwise.Bella’s face flashed in my mind.The way she looked tonight — desperate, exhausted, terrified of the future her father w
His Dark Desire: The Devil’s Bride Chapter 25 - Thoughts Of Claim
Zayden’s POV The back door of the warehouse closed behind me with a heavy thud.Her voice still echoed in my ears — “Zayden! Zayden!” — desperate, cracking, the way a child calls for someone who’s already gone.I kept walking. Didn’t turn back. Didn’t slow down.If I had, I might have broken.I slid into the back of the car. My driver didn’t ask questions. He just pulled away, tyres crunching gravel, the villa lights shrinking in the rearview mirror.I leaned my head against the window and closed my eyes.The truth was out now. She knew.I don’t know what she planned to do with it and I couldn’t care less. But she knew.She knew her father had sold my family to save his own. And still she begged me to stop.Still, she looked at me like I might be the one who could save her from him.I laughed — once, bitter, alone in the dark backseat.Fate really is a cruel bitch. I pulled out my phone.No new messages or texts begging me for what I didn’t even know.She was probably crying in the b
His Dark Desire: The Devil’s Bride Chapter 24 - Questions
Zayden’s POVI took a slow drag from my cigarette, watching her from across the table while she processed my last words.Her fingers tightened around the fork.Good.She’s listening now, really listening.For a long moment, neither of us spoke. The silence stretched thick and heavy, filled with ghosts I buried three years ago and never properly mourned.I crushed the cigarette slowly into the ashtray and looked up at her.“Why are you looking at me like that?”“Because I don’t understand what you’re trying to tell me?” She murmured.I laughed. Her eyes widened at me. She looked at me like whatever I said next could solve all her problems or make it even worse.“What did my father do, Zayden?” She asked me.“Your father was desperate to save his own skin,” I said. “So he leaked Elena and Sofia’s daily routine to the cartel. I always rode with them on Tuesdays and he told them exactly what time Elena picked Sofia up from nursery every Tuesday — what route she took, what car she drove.”
His Dark Desire: The Devil’s Bride Chapter 23 - Bitter Truths
Bella’s POVI had waited for everyone to fall asleep before I begged Rosa to help me sneak out of my house. I told her I was going to see Lucia. I needed to clear my head and talk to someone who could understand.She looked at me with something like pity in her eyes but she helped me either way.“I’d stay by the kitchen door so when you come back, I can let you in without any fuss.” She said softly.I nodded and gave her a brief hug before quietly slipping through the back door. I couldn’t believe I was doing this. Don't I learn? Going back to the same man who has threatened my family time and time again.I don’t know what I expected to get from the encounter. It’s not like our last one gave me any answers. But anything I could get was fine by me.When I busted out onto the main street, a car pulled up, stopping me short.The windows wound down and a man peeked his head out. He looked tall, with tanned skin and his long hair tied into a sleek low ponytail. I had seen him somewhere, bu
His Dark Desire: The Devil’s Bride Chapter 22 - White Dresses
Bella’s POVThe bridal shop looked like something out of a movie.Crystal chandeliers, soft white walls, racks of silk and lace glowing under perfect lighting. The bells above the door jingled as my mother and I stepped inside.“Wait up!” Rafael called out from behind us. “Slow down, both of you.”I glanced over my shoulder, slightly annoyed. “Why did you even come along, Raf?”He pressed his hand to his chest as if wounded. “What do you mean?” he said casually, catching up in two long strides. “I came to see my baby sister in white.”I rolled my eyes and kept walking.He fell into step beside me anyway.“Come on, Bella,” he said, lowering his voice. “Are you still pissed at me for stopping you from confronting Dad? What could you possibly have done?”I stopped just inside the entrance, turning to face him. “I’m not pissed, Raf. I’m just tired. Really tired.”He searched my face for a second, then nodded slowly. “Okay. I get it. I’m sorry.”I turned away and headed toward my mother, w
