Married The Wrong Groom: Claimed By The Ruthless Don CHAPTER EIGHTY-THREE: Evan Is Really Back
Raina waited for an answer, her breath caught in her throat. But instead of an explanation, the phone just gave a sharp, dead tone. Xander had hung up on her."Coward," Raina hissed, dropping the phone onto the console. She looked at Maxton. His jaw was clenched so hard she thought it might break. She felt like she was trapped in a room with a bomb, waiting for it to go off. "Why did he hang up? Is it true, Maxton? Is Evan the one who did this?"Maxton didn’t try to lie or push her away. He looked straight ahead, his eyes hard and cold. "Yes, Raina. It’s true. Evan is back in the country. He has been moving in the shadows, buying off smaller gangs and building his own army."Raina felt like someone had just poured ice water over her. "Evan? The playboy? The guy who spent all his time at parties and clubs? You’re telling me that man, who couldn't even manage his own bank account, is running a war against us?"Maxton turned to look at her. "That’s exactly what he wanted you to think. He
Married The Wrong Groom: Claimed By The Ruthless Don CHAPTER EIGHTY-TWO: Tell Me The Truth
They walked out of the hospital in total silence. The night air felt freezing against Raina’s skin, but she didn’t even shiver, because she felt numb. All she could think about was the sight of the blood on the floor and the look on the doctors’ faces. Lorenzo had always been her protector, the one person who kept her grounded, and the thought of him lying on that table was tearing her apart.Maxton led her to the SUV. He drove for a few minutes, his hands gripping the steering wheel so hard his knuckles were white. Suddenly, he pulled the car over to the side of the road and turned off the engine.Raina frowned, her brow furrowing in confusion. She looked at him, her eyes tired and slightly red. "Why are we stopping, Maxton? We need to keep moving….We need to find out who did this."Maxton didn't say a word. He just turned in his seat and reached for her. Before she could push him away or ask another question, he pulled her into his arms and held her tightly against his chest.Raina
Married The Wrong Groom: Claimed By The Ruthless Don CHAPTER EIGHTY ONE: I Will Destroy Them
Raina grabbed her bag, her mind already moving at a hundred miles an hour. She didn't know who had done this, but she was going to find out. She checked her reflection one last time and pulled her hair into a tight, sharp ponytail.She ran out of the room, her footsteps echoing in the massive hallway. She needed to find Maxton immediately. She needed to get to that hospital and god help whoever had touched Lorenzo, because if it was the last thing she did, she was going to make them pay for every drop of blood he had shed.She reached the main staircase, her heart thumping in time with the speed of her descent. The mansion felt massive and empty and it seemed to make her panic even more. She sprinted toward the garage after not seeing anyone around.She was going to grab a car and speed to the hospital instantly.She burst through the heavy doors of the garage just as Maxton was sliding into the driver’s seat of his armored SUV. His face was already set in a cold expression and it was
Married The Wrong Groom: Claimed By The Ruthless Don CHAPTER EIGHTY: The Call
The kiss was everything she hadn’t realized she was starving for. It wasn't just a touch, it was a reclamation. Maxton moved with a desperate, frantic intensity, his hands mapping the curve of her waist, then her back, pulling her flush against him until she could feel the hard, solid lines of his body. Raina’s mind went blank. Her hands, which had been fisted in his shirt, relaxed and wandered upward, her fingers tangling in the thick hair at the nape of his neck.He didn’t pull away until her lungs were literally burning for air. When he finally broke the kiss, they both stood there, chests heaving, eyes locked in a shared, frantic haze. The room felt smaller, the air thick with the scent of their shared adrenaline.Maxton didn't wait for even a minute. He quickly shifted, his arms sliding under her knees and back, and he lifted her as if she weighed nothing at all. Raina let out a sharp, surprised gasp, her arms instinctively wrapping around his neck to anchor herself. He carried
Married The Wrong Groom: Claimed By The Ruthless Don CHAPTER SEVENTY-NINE: The Question
Raina felt her heart hammering against her ribs, the rhythm was so fast that it actually started to hurt. Her skin was still burning red from what she had seen in the garden. Seeing Carlos and Pascal, two handsome and fit men, kissing with that kind of hunger had left her brain in a complete scramble. She remained standing in that particular spot, towel in hand, staring at the floor, totally lost in her own head.Maxton frowned when he saw her expression and the way she had completely spaced out.She didn’t even hear his footsteps when he approached her. It was only when he tapped her on the arm, that she snapped out of her thoughts and nearly jumped out of her skin."Raina," Maxton called. His voice was calm, but his eyes were sharp, searching her face like he was trying to solve a puzzle. "You’ve been standing there staring at nothing for five minutes and your face is so red… What’s going on?"Raina didn't have the patience or the composure to filter her thoughts, as the shock of t
Married The Wrong Groom: Claimed By The Ruthless Don CHAPTER SEVENTY EIGHT: Is He Gay?
It has been a month since the funeral and Selene's drama. The Martinez family suddenly declared bankruptcy and vanished from City M the next day.Raina was still trying to wrap her head around how things have changed and she was also thankful that she didn't have to hide or live in constant fear anymore.“Oh shit…Damn!” Raina cussed as she came to halt after her usual early morning runs.She wiped her face and drank some water before heading into the mansion.“Let go of me, Carlos” She suddenly stopped when she heard voices from the direction of the garden. And the person sounded like Pascal.Raina sighed and didn't want to eavesdrop but the next sentence stopped her directly in her tracks.“Is the eight years that we have been dating a joke to you? Do you see me as a fool? You were the one who fucked a damn stripper! Do you think you have any right to be angry?!” Carlos's angry voice came from the same direction.Raina's eyes widened and she shook her head a few times as her imagina
Married The Wrong Groom: Claimed By The Ruthless Don CHAPTER SEVENTY THREE: Life Is So Unfair
Raina woke up before her alarm even had the chance to go off.The room was still dark and she lay there for a moment just staring at the ceiling, not really thinking about anything specific, just existing in the quiet before the day had a chance to become what it was going to become. Her eyes felt
Married The Wrong Groom: Claimed By The Ruthless Don CHAPTER SEVENTY-TWO: Letting It All Out
When they came downstairs, Michael didn't try to stop them.He simply watched Raina walk down the stairs with Maxton trailing closely behind her. His eyes moved over her face with the quiet emotions of a father who had been given a second chance at a life he thought he’d lost. It was like he was m
Married The Wrong Groom: Claimed By The Ruthless Don CHAPTER SEVENTY ONE: Home
“Why can't you just love me! Is there anything that I am lacking?” Xander asked and his eyes reddened with the heartache he was feeling.He slowly removed his hand from his jacket and slowly shook his head.“You really thought I was going to hurt you? The fear in your eyes broke me more than your r
Married The Wrong Groom: Claimed By The Ruthless Don CHAPTER SEVENTY: I Love You
When Michael spoke those words, for Xander to finally let go of his obsession, the silence that followed was chilling.Xander’s face underwent a brutal transformation and the controlled facade he usually wore shattered, replaced by a raw vulnerability that twisted into pure, unadulterated rage. A
