Serena's Pov

I paced the length of Dimitrio's chambers, unable to sit still, unable to quiet the unease building inside my chest.

"You should rest," Elena said from the chair by the fire. Her wound had been bandaged, and though she was still pale, she had insisted on staying with me rather than resting in the medical wing.

"I can't rest," I said. "Not while he's out there."

"Dimitrio can handle himself," Elena said. "He always has."

"This feels different," I said. "I don't know why, but i

  • SOLD TO THE RUTHLESS MAFIA LORD   Laughing Enemy

    Nadia's Pov I watched from the shadows as Serena was thrown into the cave, her hands bound, her eyes wide with fear even in the dim light. Finally. I had waited for this moment for what felt like a lifetime. Every insult I had swallowed, every humiliation I had endured watching Dimitrio choose her over me, every night I had spent imagining her gone from that estate, it had all led to this. I stepped forward slowly, letting the faint light from a lantern in the corner catch my face. Serena's eyes found mine, and I saw the exact moment recognition hit her. "Nadia," she said, her voice shaking. "Surprised to see me?" I asked, letting a smile spread across my face. "You," she said. "You did this?" "Not alone," I said. "But I played my part well, didn't I?" She struggled against the men holding her, though it did nothing but earn her a rough shove that sent her to her knees on the cold stone floor. "Let me go," she said. "Let you go?" I laughed. "Do you have any idea how long

    Serena's Pov Rough hands threw me into the back of a van, and the door slammed shut behind me before I could even find my footing. "Please," I said, my voice muffled by the gag they had shoved into my mouth moments earlier. "Please, let me go." No one answered. My hands were bound tightly behind my back, the rope biting into my skin every time I tried to move. The van lurched forward, and I fell sideways, my shoulder slamming against the metal wall. I tried to steady myself, tried to think clearly despite the fear clawing at my chest. Think, Serena. Think. I forced myself to focus on anything I could remember. The van had turned left out of the estate gates, then right, then driven straight for what felt like a long time. I counted the turns in my head, the bumps in the road, trying to memorize anything that might help later, if there was a later. The smell inside the van was sharp with gasoline and old rubber. I could hear two voices up front, low and murmuring, though I coul

  • SOLD TO THE RUTHLESS MAFIA LORD   Race Back

    Dimitrio's Pov The moment Antonio's words left his mouth, I understood everything. "You left her unprotected," he said again, savoring each word. "You thought my challenge was the real threat. It was only a distraction." "You're lying," I said, though something cold was already spreading through my chest. "Am I?" Antonio said. "While you rushed here to save your pride, my men were already moving on your estate. By now, I imagine they've taken what belongs to me." I turned toward the door, but Antonio's men had already closed in, blocking every exit. "You're not leaving so easily," Antonio said, laughing. "It's too late, Dimitrio. She's already gone." Rage exploded through me, hotter and darker than anything I had felt in years. I moved before I had even decided to, driving my fist into the nearest man's throat, feeling him collapse beneath the blow. Another came at me from the side, and I twisted away, slamming my elbow into his jaw. "Kill him!" Antonio shouted. Gunfire erup

"Dimitrio can handle himself," Elena said. "He always has." "This feels different," I said. "I don't know why, but it does." Elena did not argue with me further. She had learned, like everyone in this house, that once I felt something in my gut, it was rarely wrong. "Tell me what you're feeling," Elena said after a moment. "Maybe talking about it will help." I stopped pacing and turned to face her. "It's like there's a weight on my chest," I said. "Like something is pressing down on me and I can't breathe properly. I've been anxious before, but this is different. This feels like a warning." "A warning abo

    Dimitrio's Pov The Esposito compound looked exactly as I remembered it, though the years had not been kind to its walls. Vines climbed over the crumbling stone, and the windows that once glowed with light now sat dark and hollow, like empty eyes staring out into the night. This was the place where Giacomo had once ruled with cruelty, where I had spent years of my childhood in chains, where Rossi had drawn her last breath in my arms. I stepped out of the car, my men fanning out around me, weapons ready. "Stay close," I told them. "Watch every corner." We moved toward the entrance, the old doors groaning as they were pushed open. Dust hung thick in the air inside, disturbed only by our footsteps echoing through the empty halls. I led the way toward the main hall, the room where Giacomo had once held court, where he had forced me to become the monster he wanted me to be. Antonio was waiting there. He stood in the center of the room, surrounded by a dozen of his men, all armed an

  • SOLD TO THE RUTHLESS MAFIA LORD   Fear of Loss

    Serena's Pov I looked into his eyes, searching for some sign that he might change his mind. But there was none. He had made his decision, and I knew him well enough by now to understand that arguing would not move him. "You're stubborn," I said quietly. "I've been told that before," he said. "By who?" I asked. "Other women you've left behind while you run off to fight?" A flicker of surprise crossed his face, then something that almost looked like amusement. "Jealousy doesn't suit you, Serena." "I'm not jealous," I said. "I'm just wondering how many times you've had this exact conversation." "Never," he said. "You're the first woman I've ever had to argue with about staying safe." "That's hard to believe," I said. "You're very argumentative." "I'm not argumentative," he said. "I'm decisive. There's a difference." "Is there?" I asked. "Because from where I'm standing, it looks like the same thing." He shook his head, but I saw the corner of his mouth twitch. "You're impossi
