I Left the Don Who Used Me as Bait Chapter 10
"Fiancée? Evelyn, what kind of joke is this!"Dante was breathing hard. Blood seeped from his wounds and dripped onto the snow, bright red against the white.He stared at me, searching my face for any sign that I was being forced.I calmly pushed aside the barrel of the gun he'd aimed at Alexei."He's not joking."I pulled a wolf's-head badge from inside my coat and dangled it in front of Dante. It was the symbol of the highest authority in the Russian mob."I'm not just his fiancée. I control half of Moscow's underworld now."Dante, did you always think I was some helpless woman who couldn't survive without you, someone you could manipulate however you pleased?"Dante froze where he stood, staring at the badge in disbelief."Did you really think you could use me as bait to draw your enemies' fire without my noticing?"I stepped closer, dripping contempt."For three years, you thought you were protecting Elena. All the while, I was using your arrogance against you."Every time you put

"You hate me that much? You wouldn't even care if I died in the street?"It was the next evening.I'd just left the gang's underground shooting range when someone cornered me in a narrow alley.Dante was still in his bloodstained hospital gown. In the shadows behind him stood more than a dozen armed Sicilian hit men.He'd clearly tapped into the Rinaldi family's secret network. He was willing to do anything to drag me back by force.I studied his pale, wild face and quietly wrapped my fingers around my gun."What's this? The sympathy act didn't work, so now you're going to kidnap me?"Dante tipped the muzzle of his gun down, away from anything vital."Evelyn, don't make me do this."He spoke through gritted teeth, obsession burning in his eyes."I sent Elena to a remote island in South America. She'll never set foot in Sicily again."My mother always had it out for you. I stripped her of all her power and put her under house arrest."Everyone you hated, I got rid of. Now come back with

"Are you related to Mr. Rinaldi? He was attacked on the street. Please come to the emergency room right away."In the middle of the night, my phone rang until it woke me.A doctor from a private hospital was on the line, speaking urgently in Russian.I leaned against the headboard, lit a cigarette, and blew out a lazy smoke ring."I'm not his family. If he dies, bury him in the Moscow snow."I was about to hang up.Then Alexei's voice came on the line, low and amused."Evelyn, come take a look. The tyrant of Sicily got stabbed three times by a bunch of nobodies. I'll be laughing about this all year."I frowned.I stubbed out my cigarette, pulled on my coat, and went to the hospital.I pushed open the door to his private room in the ICU.The Mafia Don who used to think he owned the world lay weak and deathly pale in a hospital bed.His chest was wrapped in bandages, and he even had a breathing tube.When he saw me, his dull eyes lit up, and he tried to sit up."Evelyn..."I pulled up a

"Ms. Lind, we need you to look over and sign the financials for the new territory."Just like that, a whole year had passed since I left Sicily.The wind and snow in Moscow always cut right to the bone.I sat in my office at Alexei's gang headquarters downtown, signing one document after another as if I'd been doing it all my life.A lot had changed in that year.I used everything I'd learned about gang wars at Dante's side, along with my own instincts, to help Alexei crush a few troublemakers in East Moscow.I was no longer a pawn to be sacrificed whenever it suited them.I was the underboss of the biggest gang in Russia.As for Sicily and everyone in it, I'd buried them deep in my memory, along with the chip I'd had removed."Done."I handed the papers to one of my men, pulled on my heavy black coat, and stepped out into the snow.The streetlights gave off a dim yellow glow.I headed for my armored SUV.Late that night, after a gang negotiation, I'd just stepped out of my car when I

"What? Evelyn ended the contract?"Dante stared at the glaring red text on his tablet.There were only a few lines, but they hit him like a blow to the head. For a second, his ears rang."I, Evelyn Lind, hereby terminate my contract with Dante Rinaldi, effective immediately."I accept full responsibility for whatever follows, even if it costs me my life."Let's go our separate ways. We never need to see each other again."No explanation. No room to change her mind.Dante sat frozen. He read the short message over and over for five minutes, as if he could burn a hole through it.The elders around the table saw how pale he looked and started whispering."What's gotten into the Don? He's white as a sheet.""Who knows? If we weren't afraid of him, you think we'd sit here listening to his bullshit? The man's a hypocrite."They were still muttering among themselves.Dante shoved back his chair and stormed out of the council hall without even bothering to end the meeting.He left behind a roo

At that same moment, in the West Wing's private recovery room, Dante felt a sharp pain in his chest. He hadn't left Elena's side all night.Elena sat up at once."Dante, what's wrong? Are you hurt? You look awful."Dante took a deep breath."I'm fine."He frowned and thought back over last night's fight. He hadn't been hit. It had to be exhaustion."I went a little too hard last night. Guess the adrenaline's finally wearing off."Elena remembered how he'd torn through those men for her, and a barely hidden smugness flickered in her eyes."Thank you."If you hadn't gotten there in time, I'd probably be with your brother right now."She bit her lip and caught hold of Dante's bloodstained sleeve."Please don't tell Maria about this. If she finds out, she'll send someone to take me away."Dante nodded.She still looked shaken in the hospital bed. Irritation crossed his face, but he softened his voice anyway."Get some sleep. I'll stand guard outside your door myself tonight. I'm not going
