His Pretty Little Liar - The Devil’s Snare - Book 1 Chapter One Hundred and Forty One
Continued:"Not only do you disrespect me in my own home, but my son too?" he bellows, the volume of his voice reverberating off the walls, filling the room with tension."My respect is earned, not freely given," I declared, my voice dripping with defiance as I spat the words at him. A surge of rebellion welled up inside me, overpowering any rational thought about the consequences of my actions. The air crackled with tension, and I could feel the heat of the moment coursing through my veins.Before I could register the twitch of Derek's fingers, his fist flew for my face, and I fell, twisting at such an angle that my lip hit the corner of the table leg, bursting it open and spreading my blood through the hole that shouldn't be there.Derek reaches down for me, pulling me roughly to stand before pushing me against his desk. I fight, kicking out, but this only allows him to grab my legs, spreading them before he settles between a precarious place on my body. I freeze long enough for him

Bianca I awoke to the unsettling sight of a strange man hovering by my bedside, his hands deftly fastening a familiar cuff around my arm. Although his face was unfamiliar, something in his gaze—an intense warmth and deep concern—made my heart race, as if he genuinely cared for my well-being.Instinctively, I recoiled into the embrace of the plush pillows, desperately putting distance between us. "Shh," he whispered softly, urging me to remain still. His voice was smooth and calming, like a gentle lullaby."It's okay, Ms. Rossi. I'm just checking your blood pressure. You can go right back to sleep," he said, an air of ease in his tone that resonated with a sense of déjà vu."Who are you?" I mumbled, still tethered to the remnants of sleep, my mind foggy and slow."Dr. Phillip Agar," he replied, a warm smile spreading across his face, crinkling the corners of his kind eyes. "It's a pleasure to see you again.""Again?" I echoed, confusion knitting my brow."I treated you a few years ago

Continued: "Help me," I pleaded, echoing my earlier desperation from the boat. The weight of my vulnerability was palpable in the air. "I'm trying, Bambi, but you're hating me every step of the way," he confessed, his voice laced with frustration yet tinged with an unmistakable warmth that hinted at his deeper feelings. What motivated him to reach out and offer his assistance? And why was it so difficult for me to let him transform this moment—no matter how long it lasted—into something more bearable than the unbearable experience I had just endured in the bathroom? "I don't trust easily," I remarked, twirling a forkful of creamy Fettuccine Alfredo, the comforting taste of my favourite dish that my mother used to prepare with such love—if she really was my mother at all. A shroud of uncertainty enveloped me, and the more I pondered, the more the mysteries of my past loomed large, casting shadows over my thoughts. Whether these uncertainties were a product of my imagination or roo

BiancaBenji kept his promise, albeit briefly, when he returned with two steaming plates of food, plush pillows, and a soft duvet; I nearly lost my temper. My heart raced as I paced the small, unfamiliar room, wondering what one does when confined in a space that, while foreign, felt oddly intimate.At first, I resolved to give him the cold shoulder, halting my restless movement in front of the antique chest of drawers that stood against the wall. Its surface was cluttered with knickknacks and photo frames, and they were still crying for pictures to fill them. The door swung shut behind him with a dull thud, echoing my frustration. I found myself unable to look away from him as he carefully set the plates down beside me, the rich aroma of the food mixing with the faint scent of lavender from the duvet."I said leave! I never consented to your return," I spat, frustration lacing my words as I propelled my fist toward his face with a fierce movement. His eyes widened in surprise, and in

Continued:Silence envelops us as we walk, the sound of our footsteps blending with the hustle of the street. I catch sight of Luca's men trailing behind us—a formidable group of ten, armed to the teeth as always. And here I am, equipped with a single gun once again. If it comes down to it, I've only six shots to protect Luca.Damn it, he's right. What the hell is going on with me?"Alright, walk me through the day. What happened after you called me?" he asks, his gaze piercing and expectant as we pause at the street where I reached out to him just yesterday afternoon.I recount every detail, the tension palpable as I relay the urgency of the call and how I had used Rossi's bank account to secure the entire floor we believed would keep us out of harm's way. I describe the chaos of the shootout—my choice to shoot Densel in the neck, knowing he was wearing a vest. How we had scrambled down the side of the building, narrowly escaping bullets as Bianca and I clung to the fire stairs. We u

Niko"Let's take a stroll; guide me back to the hotel," Luca urges, his tone firm as he steps off the boat and strides purposefully through the bustling docks."I should remain close, just in case..." I hesitate, glancing back at the water's shimmering surface."Niko, we both know she's gone," he replies, frustration flickering in his eyes. "I need clues; I need leads. Staying here would be a waste of time. What's going on with you?" The salty air fills my lungs as I watch him, realising his unwavering determination. The vibrant colours of the market stalls are just opening, and the distant sounds of laughter seem to fade into the background as I weigh his words."There's nothing wrong with me, Luca.""Bullshit, and you know it," he scoffs, his eyes narrowing with intensity. He strides away, trailing an unspoken challenge, knowing full well I would follow—because I always do."Bianca's her own woman, you know that. She's headstrong and..." My words falter as I grapple with my thought

"Absolutely not.""You have no choice. You do it of your own accord, or I'll get Solomen to come in and force you. I know what I'd rather do. And I know what Don Densel wants to be reported back to him," she sighs unhappily."What are you going to do?" I implore my voice barely a whisper, laced with a mix of fear and desperation."Swabs," the response comes flatly. "We need to ensure you're healthy. If you have any birth control, take it out.""I don't have any, and I'm clean," I retort, my tone defiant yet shaky. I huddled further into myself, pulling my arms tightly around my legs, seeking a fragile sense of protection against the growing uncertainty surrounding me."Fine," she hisses at me, her voice sharp and dripping with annoyance. I can feel the tension crackling in the air as she turns on her heel, her frustration echoing in each decisive step. My heart races, a flurry of anxiety flooding through me, especially as I watch her fingers graze the cool, wooden surface of the door.

I observe him in quiet contemplation, my mind racing with questions about the storm brewing within him. What thoughts whirl in his head, especially regarding the shocking scene that unfolded just moments after our arrival? I had envisioned that my decision to come here of my own volition might grant me some semblance of power, a chance to assert my will in a situation that felt increasingly beyond my control. I thought my marriage to Niko would be dissolved without my agreement, miraculously paving the way for the original plan to take flight, allowing Franko to reclaim what was never rightfully his. But as the reality sinks in that we might truly share blood, a chilling realisation grips me. How can Derek expect me to wed his son and bear children when the threads of our blood are so intricately intertwined? The weight of it all leaves me breathless, caught in a web of conflict and emotion I never anticipated.I don't want that, by the way; I don't want to marry any of his sons. I

Bianca "Bambi?" Benji's voice drifts towards me, closer than I had anticipated. I look up to see him stepping into the room, his bare feet silently connecting with the cool tiled floor. A rush of confusion washes over him as he considers the precarious position I'm in. "Shit, Bianca?" he exclaims, the surprise lacing his voice. Before I can gather my thoughts, he gently rolls me onto my back, the warmth of his presence creating a stark contrast to the chill surrounding us."Are you awake?" he asks, his voice a low murmur that cuts through the stillness of the room. Despite the question, I hold his gaze firmly; my eyes lock onto his as I fight the need to close them again, silently conveying the truth that lingers between us."Can you sit up? You need to strip," he commands, his voice firm yet gentle.With his steady support, I manage to prop myself up, my back finding a small measure of comfort against the cool porcelain of the tub. As he assists me, I feel the fabric of my top slidi
