Dimitrio's Pov

She pulled me back to her and I stopped fighting.

I had spent weeks trying to do the right thing. Trying to protect her. Trying to keep my distance. I had told myself that I was a monster. That I would destroy her. That she deserved better than a man with blood on his hands and ghosts in his head.

But she was here. She was choosing me. And I was done pretending I didn't want her.

I kissed her again. She had given me her answer. She had told me what she wanted. And I was goin

    Dimitrio's Pov She pulled me back to her and I stopped fighting. I had spent weeks trying to do the right thing. Trying to protect her. Trying to keep my distance. I had told myself that I was a monster. That I would destroy her. That she deserved better than a man with blood on his hands and ghosts in his head. But she was here. She was choosing me. And I was done pretending I didn't want her. I kissed her again. She had given me her answer. She had told me what she wanted. And I was going to give it to her. My hands went to her waist. I pulled her off the bed and into my arms. She wrapped her legs around me. Her arms went around my neck. Her mouth was hot against mine. I carried her to the bed and laid her down. Her red hair spread across the pillow. Her cheeks were flushed. Her eyes were bright. She looked at me with something I hadn't seen before. Trust. Desire. No fear. "Are you sure?" I asked. My voice was rough. "Tell me now. If you're not ready, I'll stop." "I'm sure.

    Serena's Pov He pulled me closer and I let him. His arms wrapped around me. His chin rested on top of my head. I could hear his heartbeat. It was steady, nothing like the man who had just thrown Nadia out of his room. "I meant what I said," he told me. "No more secrets." "Then start talking." He led me to the bed. We sat down. He didn't let go of my hand. "Nadia has been obsessed with me for years," he said. "Her father has been pushing the marriage since she turned eighteen. I never encouraged it. I never gave her any reason to think I was interested." "But you didn't say no." "I didn't say anything. Giovanni is my advisor. He's powerful. I couldn't reject him outright without causing problems." "So you let her believe there was a chance." "I never spoke to her about it. Not once. Whatever she believed, she believed because her father told her." I thought about that. It matched what I had seen. Nadia had been confident. Too confident. She had walked around the estate like

  • SOLD TO THE RUTHLESS MAFIA LORD   Unwelcome Guest

    Dimitrio's Pov Nadia was sitting on my bed. She was wearing a red dress. Her hair was carefully arranged. Her legs were crossed, she looked like she belonged there. She didn't. "What are you doing in my room?" My voice was low. Controlled. The kind of voice I used before something bad happened. Nadia stood up. She smiled. It was a confident smile. The smile of someone who thought they had already won. "My father said you agreed," she said. "About the marriage." "Your father lied." The smile faltered. "He said you took the ring. He said you were thinking about it." "I took the ring because he put it on my desk. I didn't say yes. I didn't agree to anything." "But you didn't say no." "That wasn't a yes." She stepped toward me. Her hand reached out to touch my chest. I grabbed her wrist before she could make contact. "You moved your things into my room," I said. "Without my permission. You told the servants we were engaged, without my permission. You sat on my bed. Without my

  • SOLD TO THE RUTHLESS MAFIA LORD   Watching and Waiting

    Serena's Pov I saw her everywhere. Nadia walked through the estate like she already owned it. She wore a red dress that matched the one I used to wear. Her hair was perfectly styled, her makeup was flawless. She smiled at the guards, she nodded at the servants. She looked like a queen inspecting her kingdom. And I hated it. I watched from the garden as she strolled past the fountain. Malak was standing a few feet behind me. He didn't say anything. He didn't have to. He knew what I was thinking. "She's been like this all morning," Elena said. She had come to bring me lunch. A plate of bread and cheese that I hadn't touched. "Like what?" "Like she's already the don's wife. She told one of the kitchen girls that the wedding is being planned. She said it's only a matter of time before the announcement." I felt something twist in my stomach. I told myself it was anger. Not jealousy. It couldn't be jealousy. I had walked away from Dimitrio. I had told him I was done. I didn't care

  • SOLD TO THE RUTHLESS MAFIA LORD   The Don's Wife

    Nadia's Pov I was in my room when my father came to find me. I had been pacing for hours. Waiting. Hoping. Serena was gone. She had walked out of Dimitrio's room and gone back to the slave quarters. The guards were talking about it. The servants were whispering. The red-haired slave had fallen from favor. It was my chance. My moment. And I wasn't going to waste it. The door opened. My father walked in. His face was calm, but there was something in his eyes. Something that looked almost like triumph. "It's done," he said. "What's done?" "I spoke to the don. About you." My heart started beating faster. "And?" "He didn't say no." I stared at him. "What does that mean?" "It means he's considering it. He's vulnerable right now. The slave girl hurt him. He's alone. And in that state, he's more open to suggestion." "So he agreed to marry me?" "He didn't agree. But he didn't refuse either. In our world, that's as good as a yes." I felt a smile spreading across my face. Finally.

  • SOLD TO THE RUTHLESS MAFIA LORD   The Proposal

    Dimitrio's Pov I woke up with Rossi's name on my lips. The dream had been the same as always. The throne room. Giacomo's smile. Rossi on the floor with blood spreading across her dress. But this time, when I ran to her, it wasn't Rossi's face I saw. It was Serena's. I sat up in bed. My chest was heaving. My skin was cold with sweat. The room was dark. Empty. Serena was gone. She had walked away from me hours ago. She had slapped me. She had told me she was done. I deserved it. I got out of bed and walked to the window. The sun was barely up. The estate was quiet. Somewhere in the slave quarters, Serena was probably awake. Probably still angry. Probably still believing every lie Antonio had told her. I had tried to explain. I had told her the truth. But it hadn't been enough. She didn't trust me. And I couldn't blame her. I poured myself a glass of whiskey. It was too early for drinking. I didn't care. I drank it in one swallow and poured another. Three days had passed since t
