LOGINNext to Aunt Alessia stands her daughter, Cristiana. Her face is adorned with an honest smile, but her eyes are giving away more than she wants them to reveal. I know what her problem is and that she’s hoping for me to solve that problem for her. And maybe I will. Even though I know it wouldn’t be a
Xavier might be self-sufficient to protect her, but I’m more ruthless. The fear of going against me has a stronger effect on people who hold a love for their lives and wives and children. And I wouldn’t hesitate to use that fear to keep my family out of danger. Xavier might be an asshole, but he’s s
“My world is a less scary place with you in it, baby. I will kiss you a thousand times every day if that’s what it takes to keep you in love with me for the rest of our days.” [VLADIMIR] "Do you take Vladimir Perazzo as your lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or
“Do you really?” I tease, although the insinuation makes my nerves tingle. I watch him take a sip before leaning on the railing and chuckling. “Enjoy this time as much as you can, because once we’re done with dinner, I’m not letting you out of my sight, out of my reach, and out of my bed,” moving c

“I’ll just wait, thank you.” I dismissed her. There was nothing more I held to say if she had nothing to tell. I could make an educated guess and tell you for sure she knew something I don’t—she had been a part of our family longer than I remember, she was there when we were born, and she practical
[LIZZY] I heard Vector yelling and my curiosity perked up. Two days have already gone by and Zarina is nowhere to be found. Everyone is worried sick. Some people, like Xavier and I, are worried because we genuinely care about her, and there are some who are fretting because their lives literally d
To put it quite practically, I’m not supposed to keep her here with me. My home is nothing like the Perazzo mansion. Agreed, it’s modern and luxurious, as well as all the amenities one would need to live a comfortable life. But I hardly live here. My work and 24-hour shift bind me everywhere but my
Mentally, I enjoy that look on his face, though. I have always wanted him to look at me like that, as if I was the only woman he wanted to look at, the only woman he wanted to...
