Master of Her Sins Chapter 43 — The Rival’s Move
BelaTHE PRIVATE elevator doors opened at two in the afternoon without any warning.I was standing near the hall console, wiping down the marble table, when six heavily armed Moretti guards poured out into the lobby.They immediately took positions near the exits, their machine guns held across their dark suits.Behind them walked Don Bernardo Moretti.Beside him was a tall, handsome man in a midnight-blue suit. He looked to be in his early thirties, with dark, gentle eyes, tan skin, and a calm, polite posture that made him stand out completely among the armed mob.Alessandra rushed out from the master suite, her face lighting up with genuine joy. “Papa!”“Alessandra, my sweet girl,” Don Bernardo said, kissing both her cheeks before turning to the man beside him. “I brought a distinguished guest with me today. This is Signor Alejandro Vance. He runs the largest luxury cruise liner fleet in the Mediterranean. We are discussing a broad shipping partnership for the syndicate’s expanding
Master of Her Sins Chapter 43 — Silent Signals
SebTHE SILENCE of the penthouse at three in the morning was a fragile, dangerous thing.Alessandra was sound asleep in the master suite, her face soft, her breathing heavy with the fine wine she drank every evening to drown her suspicions.I stood in the narrow concrete service corridor behind the kitchen, my dark sweater blending into the shadows. In my right hand, I held three small, ordinary objects that had taken me two weeks to procure through Matteo’s private black-market channels.A heavy iron key, cut to fit the deadbolts of the basement service exit.A slender hairpin, painted matte black, made of flexible, reinforced surgical steel that could puncture a neck artery or pick a standard tumbler lock.A thin, folded slip of waterproof paper written in the old Southern cipher.I pushed the low wooden door of the pantry room open without making a sound.The small, windowless room was cold and smelled of damp plaster and clean soap. Bela lay on her narrow cot, her small body curle

Bela“POUR US another drink, girl,” Alessandra said, waving her empty glass toward me.I stepped forward, my shoes making no sound against the rug. I leaned over the low glass table, carefully filling her crystal glass, then stepped toward Seb to fill his.As I reached out, Alessandra let out a low, purring laugh. She reached up, grabbed Seb’s dark belt, and pulled him down onto the sofa beside her.Seb did not resist. He fell back onto the leather cushions, letting her wrap her long legs around his waist.“You are so cold tonight, Sebastian,” Alessandra whispered, her hand sliding up his broad chest. “You spent all afternoon talking to your captains. Now I want your attention.”I pulled my hands back, stepping two paces away to give them space. I kept my eyes fixed on the floor. It had just been two days since my fever had gone, and Alessandra already forced me to go back to work.“Stay right there, maid,” Alessandra commanded sharply.I froze, my fingers tightening against the tray.
Master of Her Sins Chapter 40 — Fever and Steel
SebTHE ICY rain beat against the heavy glass walls without mercy.I stood in my private study, my back rigid, staring through the floor-to-ceiling glass at the narrow exterior ledge twelve stories above the concrete street.Out there, soaked to the skin in a thin cotton dress, was Bela.She clung to the frozen stone with one hand, a heavy bristle brush in the other, scrubbing at the rain-streaked glass. Her body shuddered with violent tremors.Matteo stood on the interior side of the glass, his heavy coat zipped to his chin, his dark eyes fixed on her every move. I had given him one strict, unspoken order before she stepped onto that narrow ledge: If she slips, or if she tries to jump, you catch her.I couldn't trust her not to jump. The wild, desperate light in her eyes during the confrontation with Alessandra told me everything.She would rather plunge to her death on the pavement below than spend another day trapped in my gilded cage.For three brutal hours, I watched her through
Master of Her Sins Chapter 39 - The Engagement Ring
BelaTHE DOOR to my tiny pantry room was kicked open with a loud, deafening crash.I jumped off my narrow cot, my heart leaping straight into my throat. Alessandra stood in the doorway, her silk robe billowing around her, her face twisted in pure, theatrical rage.Behind her in the dim corridor stood Seb and two Moretti guards.“Where is it, you dirty little thief?!” Alessandra shrieked, pointing a manicured finger at my face.I backed up against the cold concrete wall, clutching my bandaged hands against my waist. “What are you talking about?”“My engagement ring!” she yelled, her voice echoing down the narrow service hallway. “My five-carat diamond ring is gone from my vanity! You were the only servant in my room this morning!”“I didn't take your ring,” I said, forcing my voice to stay level despite the sudden knot of terror in my chest. “I haven't been near your vanity today.”“Liar!” Alessandra turned to Seb, grabbing his arm and shaking him aggressively. “Sebastian, search her r
Master of Her Sins Chapter 38 — Naked On the Table
BelaI couldn't sleep.I couldn't keep hiding like a beaten dog in this dark room, waiting for them to decide when to throw me away or kill me.I needed leverage. I needed something to break his hold over my life.I stood up, adjusting the oversized grey maid dress over my sore hips, and slid my bare feet across the cold floor.I opened the pantry door without making a sound and slipped into the silent, shadow-drenched hallway.Alessandra was likely passed out in the master suite, drowned in expensive red wine.I glided up the back stairs, my hand sliding along the cold iron railing, heading straight for Seb’s private study at the far end of the upper floor.If there was any record of his deals with Don Bernardo, any proof of the money he took to betray my family, or any path to my freedom, it was hidden behind those heavy oak doors.I reached the study door. My fingers wrapped around the brass handle, pushing it down slowly.To my shock, the heavy lock gave way with a faint, soft cli
