~Cassius~

She gives me a once-over, worry etched across her makeup-free, youthful face.

"I'm fine. Just need more rest," I laugh it off. Actually, I'm not. And I don't think I ever will be. I offer to wash the dishes,something I hate doing, and clean up the house. Jeanne and dad watch me like I've grown two heads.

"What?" I shrug, broom and dustpan in hand.

"Didn't you two want me to be more productive? I am now."

"We did. But not like this, Cass," dad

His Enemy's Vow 57. Barging without knocking
~Alessio~My brothers are clearly dealing with problems in their lives but they don't want me to interfere. As the eldest brother and their boss, I should eliminate any problem or confusion.And Cassius is a problem. One I can't erase from my system. So what the fuck am I supposed to do with him?Things aren't going as smoothly as I'd hoped.Giuseppe seems on edge, or like he's running from something. It's the same feeling I got when he was at the safehouse. What made him run and hide all the way there? I'm starting to worry that someone is out to take his life.Marcello is surprisingly fast and efficient, just the way I like people to work. He's one of my specialist hackers. I had to scout and bribe him with favorable terms to make him work for me."We've got eyes on Fabio. Location sending over to you now," Marcello says."Good work. The other half will be transferred to your account," I hang up."It might be
His Enemy's Vow 56. So into him
~Alessio~My head snaps up, my senses throbbing. We're being watched. Someone is keeping tabs on either Cassius or me. I have to go. I can't encourage this or give him a proper, truthful explanation. He'll get hurt. I don't want him hurt. He doesn't deserve this. So I tell him to forget about everything. He laughs like he doesn't believe me. For a moment, I thought he almost went crazy.I need to cut this off. I school my expression, stand up and laugh like I don't care. Cassius seems very angry and offended.He presses his knife against my chest, his emotions exploding. I let him, my heart aching. If cutting a hole in me makes him feel better, I'll gladly let him. I can't forget him just as he can't forget me.But I see it. No, them. Tears. Is he crying? What did I do? What the fuck did I do?!I hurt him so badly that he cried. I wanted to reach out and wipe away the tears but I stop. My hand refuses to move, not because I don't want to
His Enemy's Vow 55. Make eyes at you
~Cassius~"Isn't this what you want when you look at me with those eyes?" He slams me so hard against his car hood that I see stars behind my lids."What eyes?!" I beat at his arm. But he's keeping me pinned beneath him on the hood."The ones that are calling me over. Trying to provoke me, baby? To see how much I care about you?" Alessio sneers."I don't make eyes at you, Mr. Vito."He narrows his eyes. I hear him breathing and it's not the usual calm rhythm he has. He doesn't like how I address him as if we are strangers."You might as well answer me since you refuse to let me go. Why did you marry me? Don't tell me it's because of the money Fabio stole. I know it's much more than that," I demand.I'm not going to believe anything he says anyway. There's only one logical explanation going through my head. He's taking revenge on my family because of Carolina. Carolina Mancini is dead. I know because I searched through al
His Enemy's Vow 54. Don't you fucking dare touch my husband
~Cassius~"What are you looking at?" Mikhail asks. He follows my line of sight and seems surprised."Isn't that Alessio Vito?""Yeah. You know the bastard?" I'm dreaming of ripping off the girls' arms and pulling their hair. I'm envisioning grabbing their heads and smashing them on the table until they crack. I don't usually get murderous thoughts.Never like this. Until him."Kind of. My dad has some dealings with him. He controls the Italian Mafia in New York and Chicago. Some other smaller and less powerful crime families and gangs have to pay him respect. The guy's powerful as fuck," Mikhail says. He turns to me and then back to Alessio, seemingly noticing some kind of connection between the two of us."Do you know each other?""He's my ex-husband.""Holy fuck," Mikhail curses, surprise written across his face. "How in the world? Isn't he straight?""Straight my ass. It was a private wedding. Then we bro

I shrug, broom and dustpan in hand."Didn't you two want me to be more productive? I am now.""We did. But not like this, Cass," dad says, shooting me a suspicious and judgmental look."Cass, you've swept the floor five times, wiped the counter and furniture twice and dusted everything more than once," Pamela puts her hands on her hips."So?" I cock my head. Honestly, I don't see anything wrong with that."It's too clean! Usually you don't give a damn about mess," Pamela snatches the broom out of my hand.Right, it's too clean. Speaking of cleanliness, my ex-husband is a neat freak. I refu
His Enemy's Vow 52. Lied to and used
~Cassius~It's over. Everything between us is. It was nothing but a sham, a lie. A scam. Right from the start. I thought it was about Fabio and getting his money back. I was wrong.Grandpa and Jeanne are by my side. Though they don't say a word, they're sympathetic.They're here for me.Killian is nowhere to be seen as usual, but I know he's going to run his mouth off when he sees the pathetic state I'm in. It has been three days since the court finalized our divorce. The process was fast, thanks to grandpa's connections. A part of me was hoping Alessio would come and stop the process but he didn't."Are you hungry?" Jeanne returns from the kitchen with a plate of cannoli. She must have gotten them from Pamela.I look at the generous amount of sweet dessert that does nothing for my appetite. I realize I haven't eaten a proper meal in days. I've only been eating instant noodles and drinking wine to keep my head from exploding and
His Enemy's Vow Forced marriage
~Cassius~To say my life is bad is an understatement. Dad paces the room back and forth, his steps making my sister uneasy. Jeanne sits on the couch, burying her face in her hands."What's going to happen?" she asks, eyes red and watery as she looks at me. Her chocolate hair is mussed up, like she
His Enemy's Vow Strangle him
~Alessio~Not that I mind, but I can't stand the weeping and drama. It gives me a headache. I want to strangle Cesare and this man, this lover who snatched my bride.Giulio approaches me, mouth open and ready to shout. I gesture to Dimitri, my right-hand man. He walks forward and pulls Giulio in th
His Enemy's Vow Intrigued
~Alessio~I watch as he takes my bride, places her on his bike, and takes off like a shooting star. Never has anyone disregarded me like this, pulling a fucking gun right in front of my eyes. That pure arrogance of his got under my nerves, and I resist the urge to end his life. Who is he? More imp
His Enemy's Vow Top of my list
Anger is my partner in crime. I always have this shoot-first-ask-questions-later attitude. Even though I appear calm on the outside, I'm a fucking mess on the inside. The voices in my head are getting louder and louder.I view things negatively and anger is the only way to solve issues that become
