LUCIANO’S POV

Mercy is weakness. I was taught that as a child, and I’ve lived by it every day of my life. If someone crosses me, they die. If someone takes from me, they pay until they have nothing left. That’s the rule. That’s how you stay alive in my family.

So when I saw Aria standing over Matteo’s body that night, I wanted to end her. No hesitation, no discussion. Blood for blood. That was justice in our world.

But then her father came. He begged, pleaded, even dropped to his knees. I’ve se

    ARIA’s POVLet's take a bit of flashback to how it happened “Urgh!” I groaned loud enough for Camille to hear the moment we walked right into the club. A loud chuckle escaped her lips and she certainly didn't plan on letting go of my hands which she had held on to tightly. Especially since I tried to pull it out so I could run out of the club.“Come on. You promised Aria. There's no going back now.” She whined, holding me firmly. We stopped the moment we were past the entrance of the club and sitting at the bar counter. Asides the loud and almost deafening music that filled the atmosphere, the disco lights, strong expensive cologne also made me so uncomfortable that I almost puked. Now, I wished I had not allowed myself to be dragged down to the club by her. “I should have known this was a bad idea. Joining you down here. Heavens.” I complained, my face tightening with discomfort while my eyes peered around, watching different younglings pass by. “You just got here. Wait until y

    Ethan's povGo. No, don't. I don't see a reason you have to be there. In fact, I can provide you a hundred and ninety nine reasons not to be there. You'll have no reason to celebrate going there. Instead, you'll only regret it. Or, you could be thankful at the end of the day that you finally went. On, and on, the different thoughts in my head kept playing the play game. Each one of them gave me bonafide reasons why I should listen but in the end, it was my own decision to make. And trust me, I hadn’t planned on attending the event — even though I had every right to be there.But everything changed the minute I found out he would be there.Daniel.Mercy was weakness.

    ARIA’S POVThe kiss wouldn’t leave me. No matter how many times I told myself to stop thinking about it, it came back stronger. Luciano’s hand gripping me, his mouth crushing mine, the heat of it, the shock that froze me. I kept replaying it like a broken record I couldn’t turn off. I hated it. I hated that it shook me, that it stayed in my head. I couldn’t figure out why he did it. I couldn’t figure out why I didn’t push him off fast enough.I was still stuck in that loop when Camille dropped into the room. She carried a bag of snacks and a bottled drink, moving with her usual careless energy. She didn’t ask before sitting beside me.“You look terrible,” she said, tearing a pack open. “What’s eating you this time?”I shook my head. “Nothing.”“Don’t start with me,” she said. “You’ve been blank since I got in. You think I didn’t notice?” She shoved the open pack at me. “Eat. Maybe sugar will wake your brain.”I didn’t take it. I sat stiff, the kiss still pounding in my skull.She rais

That was justice in our world.But then her father came. He begged, pleaded, even dropped to his knees. I’ve seen men beg before, but not like that. He wasn’t bargaining like most men do, he was throwing away his pride. Offering anything to keep her alive.For a moment, I considered shooting her anyway. Just to prove to him that no amount of begging could move me. But then I thought about what keeping her alive could mean. Dead, she was just another body. Alive, she was leveraged. A tool. A crack in the Deluca family’s armor.So I released her. Not for her sake. Not because of pity. Only because I knew

    ARIA’s POVThe drive home felt longer than it should have. My father’s grip on the steering wheel was tight, the veins standing out on his hands. His jaw worked as though he was grinding his teeth. I sat in the back seat, slouched against the leather, unable to look at him. My throat burned from all the crying I had done.The silence stretched, heavy and unbearable, until he finally spoke.“I warned you,” he said, his voice hard and steady. “I warned you about the DeLuca family, Aria. I told you to stay away, again and again. But you never listened.”I pressed my lips together, staring at the blur of city lights outside the window.He hit the steering wheel with his palm. “Do you see now? Do you see what your stubbornness has cost? Matteo is dead. His family is enraged. And you—” He cut himself off with a shake of his head.Tears spilled down my cheeks. I sniffled, trying to keep quiet, but the sobs escaped anyway. My shoulders shook. I covered my face with my hands.“Answer me,” my f

    JOCELYN’s POVI stood frozen, my limbs and entire being went numb. My eyes went wide open but I was unable to catch sight of anything important for a moment.However, I could hear screams and voices behind me. Probably all over me for a while. Unfortunately, I couldn’t register who it belonged to or where I was at the moment.A lot of thoughts kept playing through my head. Questions like: What was happening to me? Where was I? I couldn’t stop reeling through my head.“Jocelyn,” I finally heard a thick voice break through all the bustling noise around.“Jocelyn!” The voice came at me again, this time it was louder, sharper, and it came with a strong grip of my hands, turning and pulling me out of deep thoughts.My breaths came out sharper as I felt someone’s hands on my shoulder. I shut my eyes for a while, letting the weight of the glass off my hands and I heard its piercing shatters.“What happened to you? You zoned out immediately and unexpectedly.”I could recognize that voice whe
