Adriano

Even though the news confirmed they were my family, I couldn’t believe it—not yet. I needed proof. Zero was a dangerous killer, and he had never failed me before, but this was different.

I had to be sure they were truly gone. That’s why I ordered Matteo to investigate. I was still deep in sleep when my phone rang.

I glanced at Azalea sleeping peacefully beside me before answering.

“Sir.”

“Spare me the details, Matteo. Is it done?”

“The bodies,” he said quietly. “They were burned beyond recognition.”

My heart skipped a beat. “So? Are you saying you can’t confirm they were the ones?”

“Yes,” he replied. “I can’t say for certain they were your family.”

“Okay, I’ll talk to you later.” I exhaled deeply as I ended the call. Stepping into the corner of the room, I dialed another number.

“It is done, sir,” the familiar voice answered.

“Zero,” I whispered softly, not wanting to wake Azalea. “Are you sure they were the ones?”

“Yes,” he responded. “They are gone.”

    AlexThe hospital room felt too quiet after my parents left. Their voices still rang in my ears—Mother’s promises, Father’s anger.For the first time in my life, I thought we were finally working together toward one goal: destroying Adriano.I closed my eyes and drifted in and out of restless sleep, holding onto that small feeling of victory. Tomorrow, I told myself.Tomorrow I would wake up to hear that Adriano was dead, and everything he owned would finally be mine.But morning came with something very different.The TV on the hospital wall was showing breaking news. At first, the words were blurry. The pain medicine made it hard to think clearly. But then I saw something that made my blood turn cold.“Business leader and wife killed in terrible car crash. No one survived.”My heart stopped beating.The screen showed flashing police lights, broken glass, and twisted metal. My father’s car—black and expensive—was now just a pile of destroyed steel.The news reporter’s voice cut throu

    AlexThe ringing in my ears wouldn’t stop. It was the only thing keeping me awake—the echo of the gunshot that had torn through my body.I could still see Adriano’s face clearly. Cold and heartless. His finger had been steady on the trigger, like killing me meant nothing to him. No pause. No guilt. Just ice-cold hatred in his eyes when the bullet ripped into my side.The pain had been unbearable. I remembered stumbling and falling, my blood splashing across the marble floor of his office.The same office where he ruled his empire through fear. My legs gave out, and everything started spinning. He thought I was already dead.But I wasn’t. Not yet.Every breath felt like fire burning through my chest. Darkness kept trying to pull me under, but I fought it.“Alex!” I heard my mother scream as she rushed toward me. She pulled me into her arms, and I felt her tears falling on my face. “My son.”I had never known my mother loved me this much. I always thought she saw me only as someone she

    AdrianoHer back was still pinned to the cold wall, her chest rising and falling in uneven breaths as I finally loosened my grip on her. The taste of her lingered on my tongue—sweet, addictive, and fucking mine.She was mine. Every inch of her.Her skin glistened where my mouth had claimed her, flushed and trembling, and I drank in the sight like a starving man. Every nerve in her body seemed alive under me, strung tight, and begging for more. And I loved it. I loved the way she yielded to me, the way her body betrayed how much she craved me.When I rose to my feet, I locked my gaze on hers. Dark. Consuming. Dangerous. She was trapped in it—exactly where I wanted her.“I love the way you look right now,” I groaned, unable to stop myself from reaching for her. I gripped her hand, tugging her close before I pushed her down onto the bed.My voice came out low, raw, laced with the truth only I knew. “This look belongs to me alone. You’re mine forever.”I stripped slowly, deliberately, wat

    AzaleaMy back was still pressed hard against the cold wall, and my chest was rising and falling in uneven breaths as Adriano finally loosened his grip on me after licking all my juices.My skin burned everywhere his mouth had claimed me, and every nerve was alive.I loved it. I loved everything he had just done to me, and I craved more. When he rose to his feet, his eyes locked onto mine, filled with a storm of emotions—dark, consuming, and dangerous. I was trapped in his gaze, unable to move.“I love the way you look right now,” he groaned, gripping my hand and pulling me closer before pushing me down onto the bed. “This look belongs to me alone. You’re mine forever.”I watched as Adriano undressed slowly, every movement deliberate, his gaze locked on me as though he could see the fire he was igniting inside me.My core throbbed in anticipation, aching for him the moment his clothes hit the floor. His cock stood hard, thick, and veined, making my body scream for his touch.“I don’t

    AzaleaBut sitting here like this, sharing a meal as a family, he seemed like a completely different person. Gentle, caring, and almost... normal.I took my seat beside him and we ate together, talking and laughing like any ordinary family.“Thank you for the meal,” Adriano said after he’d finished eating. “It was incredible. Everything was perfect.”“I’m so glad you enjoyed it,” I responded, feeling warm with pride.“I love everything about you.”After dinner, we moved to the living room to watch a movie together. Amira curled up in her favorite chair while Adriano and I settled on the couch.About halfway through the film, Amira yawned and announced she was going to bed.“Goodnight, you two,” she said, giving us both hugs. “Don’t stay up too late.”After she left, Adriano coughed softly beside me.“Are you feeling okay?” I asked, concerned.“I’m fine,” he said, pulling me closer so I was leaning against his chest. “Just fine.”We sat in comfortable silence for a while, but I could f

    Azalea“Ma’am,” the head maid called out as soon as she saw me walk into the kitchen. “Do you need something?”I nodded, a bright smile spreading across my face. “Yes,” I responded, feeling excited about my plan. “I want to cook for my husband.”Anna’s eyes widened with worry. “But ma’am,” she muttered carefully, choosing her words with care, “it’s our job. Please, let us handle the cooking.”I could see the discomfort written all over her face. “I know, Anna. I’m not trying to step on your toes or take over your duties,” I explained. “I just really want to cook something special for Adriano myself.”Her eyes darted toward the butler who had just entered the kitchen. I could feel the tension in the air.“Ma’am,” the butler said, his eyebrows raised in surprise when he saw me. “Do you need Anna to prepare something for you?”“Perfect timing,” I murmured warmly. “I was just telling Anna that I’d like to cook dinner for my husband tonight.”The butler and Anna exchanged worried glances.
