Mateo's POV

My beautiful wife.

Still so set in her own ways. Still so unaware that my way is the only right way. I slowly walked closer to her and she backed up against the desk centered in the room.

I caged her in by placing my hands on the desk next to her thighs. I looked up, and our lips were mere inches apart from each other, and for a moment, I had her right where I wanted her.

"I have a proposal for you, Hera," I whispered into her ear. She didn't move an inch so I assume that she was waiting for me to tell her about my proposal.

"Be my wife again," I said before gripping her waist into my hands. "Fully," I uttered before moving my hands to her ass and she looked at me in shock.

"Get away from me, Mateo!" She angrily yelled before pushing me away from her and I chuckled to myself. "And stay away from me!" She continued so I nodded at her in understanding.

"Fully?" She wildly asked me.

"Yes, fully. I want you, Hera." I said before pulling her toward me by her waist.

"You're sick!" She spat at me and I smirked at her.

"Am I sick for wanting to take my daughter home? Or for wanting my marriage back?" I asked her and she angrily glared up at me.

"No! But you're sick for hunting me down like an animal, Mateo. When you know what you did to my dad." She wildly told me and a frown settled on my forehead.

"Wait a minute. I don't understand." I frowned at her before leaning into her and she hit me on the chest.

"You killed my dad and everybody knows it." She angrily told me before hitting me again. "And you're still here acting so goddamn righteous. High and mighty piece of-" She started, and I placed a rough kiss on her lips she tried to fight me, but soon all her anger melted away, and she slowly started kissing me back with the same amount of need.

"Mateo please." She uttered against my lips, and I picked her up from the ground and her legs circled my torso.

"Let me go." She whispered as I kissed her neck. "Mateo!" She yelled at me and I groaned in frustration before putting her down. She fixed her uniform before turning her back on me.

"Then I'm taking my daughter. We leave in two hours. And in case you do decide to come with us, it will be on one condition." I pointedly told her.

"She's not going anywhere with you, Mateo. Do you think I won't call the cops?" She asked me and I laughed at her.

"This is my city, Hera. Every cop in this city is on my payroll. You're hilarious for even considering calling the cops on me." I told her and she frowned at me.

"Then I'll go to another city." She shot back at me and I nodded at her.

"Good luck with that." I smiled at her before walking over to the door to leave the room.

"Mateo, wait," Hera uttered as I stepped out of the room, and I stopped in my tracks. "Wait." She repeated herself so I slowly turned around to face her.

"I'm listening." I softly told her and she nervously gulped down.

"I'll come with you." She said.

"Excellent." I smiled at her and she quietly watched me. "Now was that so hard?" I asked knowing that it would strike a nerve.

"You're too arrogant for your own good, Mateo." She angrily told me.

"My God, will you just stop being so pretentious, sweetheart?" I asked her and she frowned at me in confusion. "You're still wearing your wedding ring." I told her and she slowly looked down at her wedding ring in shock, almost as if she'd just been caught out.

"I can't get it off. That's the only reason why I'm still wearing it." She lied to me through her teeth and I nodded at her with a smile on my face. She looked down at my hands and I followed her gaze down to the silver band on my ring finger.

"If it makes you feel any better, I can't get mine off either." I mockingly told her.

"He thinks I'm lying." She hopelessly muttered under her breath and I smirked to myself.

I don't think she's lying. I know that she's lying. This gives me all the more reason to fight for our marriage. For our daughter. I care about her, perhaps more than she realizes.

I know I didn't always show it but I- loved her. But over the years all that love turned turned into pain and hatred. She shoved a knife into my back, and she twisted it, and she'll keep twisting that knife if I don't stop her.

  • His Ruthless Pursuit   Old Habits Die Hard

    After dinner I stood on wobbly legs. I hastily made my way out of the restaurant and Mateo followed me outside."Be a good girl and drive home as fast as you can." Mateo told me before hitting my ass. I bit into my bottom lip and watched him confidently walking back to his car. I grabbed my keys from the valet before climbing into my car. I drove ahead of him and made my way home deciding that I was tired of being so deliciously tortured by him. That I needed him inside of me.Once I parked my car in it's usual spot in the mansion parking lot I jumped out of the vehicle. Mateo had his car parked next to mine, he placed a passionate kiss on my lips once I reached him. We made our way into the house, I ran upstairs and Mateo hit my ass while following me to our room. I opened the door and froze in my spot when I found Mila asleep in our bed."Cold shower." I told Mateo and he nodded at me. "Definitely." He uttered and we sneaked into the room and grabbed our bath essentials. We took

  • His Ruthless Pursuit   Punished By Him

    WARNING: SEXUAL CONTENT!I stepped out of the elevator and made my way to Mateo's office. Every employee I passed kindly greeted me. I took my sunglasses off and placed them into my bag. I reached to knock on the door but it swung open before I could do so. My heart skipped a beat when I saw Cara walking out of Mateo's office, she fixed her lipgloss then her hair before smirking at me. I rolled my eyes at her and made my way into Mateo's office. I slammed the door in her face before going over to Mateo."Mateo, what the hell was that woman doing in your office?" I angrily asked him. "She came to hand in her resignation." Her calmly stated. "I already fired her, Mateo! Did you let her work here after I fired her as Mila's babysitter?" I wildly asked him and his eyes slowly ran over me as if he just noticed that I was wearing his favorite color. "I did." He blankly uttered so I walked over to where he was sitting. I angrily glared down at him before pointing my index finger at him.

  • His Ruthless Pursuit   Nothing Like You

    I walked into the Salvador mansion with Mila by my side. I could already feel the shift that was about to happen. Mila ran upstairs to go put her backpack in her room so I decided to wait for her inside the living room and found Lola sitting on a couch, she put her phone aside and placed all her focus on me."Hera? Where have you been?" Lola curiously asked me as soon as I entered the living room. "I was in town- doing some shopping-- but I couldn't find anything I liked so I decided to come back home." I lied to her through my teeth and Lola just nodded at me. "And have you calmed down yet, since this morning?" She asked me. "Yes, Lola. I'm not leaving my husband, if that's what you're asking." I uttered in annoyance and she smiled at me. "That's good," she told me and a document lying on the table caught my eye. I narrowed my eyes to read what it said and found that it was the results of a paternity test. "The results came back positive." She told me and I faked shock. "Wow wh

    I sat in a dark basement, scared of what might happen next. The door suddenly opened and I sat upright before backing into the wall behind me."Hera, follow me," I heard a familiar voice. I slapped myself as I got up from the ground. I followed the person outside since I couldn't get a good look at them in the dark. Once we got outside an old man stood in front of me, his back facing me. His hair was grey and his hands were behind back. He was wearing a black ring on his ring finger with the crest of the Salvador mafia carved into it. But how?"Leonardo?" I uttered in disbelief. "Yes, child." He uttered before turning around to face me and my mouth went agape. He seemed much older now, he had wrinkles around his eyes, they were still as blue as ever.I took his face into my hands to check if he was real and he was- real. Alive. I wordlessly watched him and he showed no emotions on his face. "Yes. I'm alive, Hera." He assured me before opening his arms for me. I skeptically watched

    The next morning everyone sat at the breakfast table, quiet and unmoving. Not even Mila had something to say and she's usually the most talkative person in the mornings.Mateo looked around the table before frowning at me so I shrugged at him in response. Uncle Charlie and Aunt Maya just quietly ate their breakfast and kept to themselves."Did something happen that I should know about?" Mateo asked and Lola frowned over at him. "Is something wrong, son?" Martín asked Mateo. "I'm not your son, Martín." Mateo tiredly told him and my eyes slightly widened at his words. "Lola wants me to fix things between you and Dario." I blurted the words out and Lola angrily glared over at me. "Because you're the one who screwed them up in the first place." She angrily told me. "How? By telling my husband that his brother was doing dealings with his enemies behind his back?" I asked Lola and she set her fork down on the table, trying her best not to lose her temper. "And then he tried to kill me

    I pulled the black beanie I was wearing over my ears and quietly walked through the gates of the Salvador mansion. I was escorted by a guard, we sneaked around the back of the house and I entered the house through the backdoor.Lola frowned at me when she saw me. "Hera, where the hell have you been? One of the kids just called asking if we were expecting guests." She told me. "Who exactly called you?" I curiously wanted to know. "Carlos, he stands guard at the gate.""Have you informed Mateo about this, yet? I didn't get the chance to." I asked and followed her into the living room. "Yes, he says he's not far from the house, that he'll be here in five minutes." Lola answered before sitting down on a sofa. "You're sitting down?" I asked her in disbelief and she frowned at me. "I'm not doing anything until my son gets here. I'll wait for his orders." She blankly stated. "You do realize who's standing in front of your house right now, don't you?" I asked her and she nodded at me.
