“So you think there’s something happening between us.”

“Liar.” Nico’s voice was flat. “You’ve been obsessed with her since before you even took her. Don’t pretend this is just about keeping a witness contained.”

I stared at my brother. At the anger on his face. The protectiveness.

He didn’t know. Couldn’t know.

“There are things about this situation you don’t understand,” I said carefully.

“Then explain them to me.”

“I can’t.”

“Can’t? Or won’t?”

“Both.”

“That’s not good enough,

  • His Sinful Empire    Chapter 125

    The facility gates were already locked down when I arrived. Security was tight… too tight for a place meant to heal, not cage. That’s when I saw them. Luca was standing a few feet from the gate, hands in his pockets, jaw tight. A lady was beside him, arms crossed, her eyes fixed on the building like she could will Nina awake through concrete walls. “They were not allowed in,” one of the guards said quietly behind me. “I know,” I replied. Luca noticed me first. His body stiffened instantly. Not with fear or anger. Readiness. Like he’d been waiting for this moment without knowing it. I had never seen her before. That was the part that hit me hardest. She didn’t look like Santoro. No sharp arrogance. No calculated stare. She looked… young. Worn. Like someone who’d been holding herself together with willpower alone. “This is Gia,” Luca said, briefly. So this was her. This was the girl Nina had risked everything for. Gia met my eyes. She didn’t flinch. Didn’t

    ENZO’S POV It had been three days. Three days of seeing this machines breathing for her, staring at a chest that rose because something else told it to. Three days of learning how loud silence could be. “Just say it already, Bruno.” He stood by the window, hands clasped behind his back. He hadn’t slept either. I could tell. Bruno never hid exhaustion well… he just carried it like duty. “Sir,” he said carefully, “I need to go back to Milan. Something important. It’s… urgent.” I didn’t look at him. My eyes were still on the door to Nina’s room, like it might open if I watched hard enough. “Just go,” I said. “Brief Marco and the men before you leave.” Relief flickered across his face, quick and gone. “Thank you, sir.” He hesitated. “Sir…” I exhaled slowly. “What again, Bruno.” “Nonno has asked for you,” he said. “He demands to see you. Now.” “He can wait.” There was a pause. Then Bruno spoke again, softer this time. “Sir… I think it’s best you go. Then take so

    LUCA's POV The house was too quiet when I walked in. Gia was already there. She stood up the second she saw me, phone still in her hand, worry written all over her face like she’d been holding it for hours. “I’ve been trying to reach you,” she said quickly. “Luca… what happened?” I dropped my keys on the table, the sound too loud in the silence. My chest felt tight, like my lungs had forgotten how to work properly. “I’m sorry,” I said. My voice cracked immediately. “Gia, I’m so sorry. I—” The words tangled in my mouth and refused to come out right. I dragged a hand through my hair, pacing once before stopping in front of her. “I don’t even know how to say this.” Her hands came up to my face, warm, groundi

    I felt my chest heavier than before. “Push harder and don't stop until there is a sign,” I said. “Move” I added No one did. So I did. I placed my hand over the center of her chest, right where her heart should be beating. “I’m not done with you,” I whispered fiercely. “You don’t get to leave me. Not like this.” I broke her. And I will burn the world if she dies. I drove my fist down. Once and Hard. The sound was hollow. Like something cracking inside my own body. Someone gasped. For a second, then— A blip. Then Another. The monitor stuttered. “A pulse,” someone said, stunned. “We’ve got a pulse!” The room exploded into motion again. I drooped forward, forehead pressing to hers, and a broken laugh came out of my chest as tears finally spilled down my face. “There you are,” I whispered. “There you are… don’t ever do that to me again.” Hands gently but firmly pulled me back. “She’s back,” the doctor said urgently. “Move him out. Now.” They dragged m

    “Stay with me,” I said again, my voice breaking openly now. “Please. Stay with me.” She didn’t answer. For a split second, the world tilted. That sharp, terrifying silence, the kind of silence that doesn’t just exist in your ears but creeps into your chest and starts crushing things. “Nina,” I said, louder now. “Nina, look at me please.” Nothing. My heart slammed so hard it hurt. “She’s still breathing,” Luca said quickly beside me, his voice tight, controlled in that way that meant he was barely holding it together. “Enzo. She’s still here.” Barely. I lifted my head, swallowing hard, forcing myself to focus. This wasn’t the time to fall apart. Falling apart was a luxury for men who weren’t carrying a bleeding woman in their arms. “Move,” I ordered. The car door was already open. Bruno was on the phone, speaking fast, clipped. “We’re five minutes out. Gunshot wound. Female. Severe blood loss.” He didn’t need to say her name. They should know. The underground

    Enzo’s POV I shouldn’t have left her. The moment I stepped into the corridor, that truth lodged in my chest like shrapnel. Every instinct I had screamed to stay. To chain myself to the floor beside her if that’s what it took. But Luca needed cover, and time was bleeding out faster than we were. Gunfire echoed somewhere deeper in the compound. I moved on muscle memory alone, turn, fire, advance, cover. My body knew how to survive even when my mind refused to leave that room. Every second stretched too long. Every sound felt wrong. I took down two men in the hall. A third ran. The gunshot burst the night open. This wasn't close, it was from outside. Bruno. My head snapped up instinctively, every muscle going taut. The sound wasn’t wild it was a signal more than an attack. My men were in. Relief hit hard and fast, sharp enough to almost buckle me. We weren’t alone anymore. I turned toward Luca just as he was already moving. “That was Bruno,” I said. He nodded

    I made it back to my room somehow, my vision still blurred with tears, my wrist throbbing where the metal had cut into my skin. I locked the door and stumbled to the bathroom, running cold water over the wound. I wrapped my wrist in a towel and sank down onto the bathroom floor, pulling my knee

    The studio smelled faintly of polish and sunlight, that clean, almost sacred scent every real dancer knows, the kind that settles into your bones before you even move, and I hated how instantly my body recognized it, how it softened me without permission. I walked farthe

    As if her father’s name wasn’t carved into every decision I’d made since the moment I’d seen her face in that file. “I haven’t,” I said quietly. “You’re building her studios,” Bruno said, moving closer. “Giving her space. Letting her look at you

    The estate was massive, I knew that. But I’d only seen a fraction of it. The rooms Rosa had shown me on the tour were just the surface. There were entire wings I hadn’t explored. Floors I hadn’t been to. And somewhere in this enormous house, there was a room dedicated to ballet. For me? Or for s
