"I won't be able to help your company," he said, dropping the bombshell, causing all our eyes to widen in shock.

"Mr. Dela Lucchese!" Mr. Paisley quickly rose to his feet, his eyes wide with surprise. I stared at the man who stood proudly in front of us, anger swirling in his eyes.

"The next time I'm invited to such a worthless meeting, be assured that this company will crumble right under your nose," he glared at Mr. Paisley, adjusting his blazer before storming out.

"Mr. Dela Lucchese, give us a reason at least!" Mrs. Paisley cried out, following him out.

I stood there, frozen, the insult echoing in my ears. Before I could even begin to process the chaos, a hand clamped down on my arm. I turned to see Aubrey's furious eyes narrowed at me.

“This is all your fault, Camila. The company wouldn't have to face this if you didn't show up late and give a bad presentation. Besides that, I'm pretty sure you messed up at his office like you always do. I guess you only we

    Camila's Point of ViewSomething felt off. Like a presence looming over me.That eerie sensation of being watched prickled at my skin, dragging me from the fragile state of sleep I had fallen into.My lashes fluttered open, and as my vision adjusted, two familiar faces came into focus—Kira and Ava, hovering over me like a pair of nosy ghosts.I yelped, jerking upright. "What the hell?"Kira and Ava flinched back but didn't even try to look guilty. Instead, they burst into laughter, Kira clutching her stomach like she had just witnessed the funniest thing in the world."You freaks," I growled, throwing my pillow at them.Ava caught it effortlessly, grinning. "Evening, moonshine." Kira let out an excited squeal and threw herself at me, wrapping me in a tight hug."Moonshine?" Ava echoed, her face twisting in mock disgust.Kira, completely ignoring her, only hugged me tighter—which I was silently grateful for. I wasn't in the mood for their usual playful bickering."Kira," I mumbled ag

  • Saint Or Sinner?    Goodbye, Luciano.

    Camila's point of viewMy fingers raked through my hair, heavy breaths escaping my nose as I paced around the room.I always knew he was a dangerous man, involved in shady business, but for some reason, the mafia never crossed my mind.Fear wasn't the primary emotion. Anger was. I was pissed at him for hiding this truth, for keeping me in the dark. It still baffled me, even after witnessing him kill someone right in front of me.The door burst open, and he strode in, his face an angry storm cloud. Wait, why was he angry? I was the one who deserved to be furious."Why didn't you tell me, Luciano?" I gritted out, the words dripping with disappointment."Gem, listen....""No, Luciano, I don't want to listen! I should have known this was the kind of life you lived, an...""And have you run away or report my organization to the world? I didn't want to drag you into my messed up life. That's why I didn't tell you, to protect you. I didn't want you to run away from me like everyone else."

  • Saint Or Sinner?    Camila Is All That Matters.

    Luciano's point of view"Exactly what I was afraid of." I muttered, my voice a low growl."Now she's also left." My fingers raked through my hair, and I cursed under my breath. They'll always be the same for me, and that's why I refused to fall for her."Luciano, what happened?" Russo's voice cut through my thoughts. I glared at him, my anger a hot coal burning in my chest."I told you to take her home." I hissed, my voice laced with venom."I was going to," he defended, his voice reassuring. "But I dropped by to pick up the file. I didn't know she'd get out of the car.""Fuck." I cursed again, this time a guttural sound that ripped from my throat.I paced the room, my mind a chaotic blend of frustration and dread. What I had been avoiding finally happened. I knew she would find out, but I didn't want it to be like that."Damn!" I roared, the word a desperate cry of anguish.I stormed out of the room, leaving Russo calling my name behind me. I needed to get to her, to explain, to co

  • Saint Or Sinner?    Caught In Blood.

    Camila's point of viewAfter our erotic encounter in the booth, Luciano left me with Russo in the restaurant."So how are your sisters, and why did you come so quickly? It's just four days since you left, it's not even up to a week." I struck a conversation to pass time and keep us entertained while we waited for our orders."I know Camila, but I had to come back, they need me here.""Are you the first?" I inquired. He smiled and shook his head."Third.""So you don't have a brother?" He shook his head."That's where life began its game for me, the only male among three crazy females." He said with a dramatic hint in his voice. I laughed and slapped his hand lightly."Hey, girls aren't bad." I argued with a playful frown."Yes, I know that, beautiful, my sisters may be witches trapped in human form, but I love them nevertheless." The emotion that played in his eyes as he spoke about them made me smile."What about your parents?" His eyes darkened, and his jaw clenched. Immediately I

  • Saint Or Sinner?    Silent Moans.

    I crossed my legs and turned to face the window, watching the city lights flicker in the distance. I tried to ignore the tension in the air, focusing instead on the view. But my mind drifted back to the scene unfolding before me.How had Luciano managed to get a private booth? Then it hit me, this place was probably his. He wasn't just a handsome man with a charming smile; he was someone powerful, someone who moved in ways I didn't understand.They talked, while I tried to focus on the bright lights of the city, but my mind was a jumbled mess of curiosity. I wished I'd paid more attention in high school language classes.The words flew over my head, leaving me feeling isolated and out of place. Suddenly, a door I hadn't even noticed opened. A familiar face appeared in the doorway, and my heart leaped."Russo!" I called out, surprised and delighted. His eyes found mine, and he winked, a charming smile playing on his lips. I returned his smile, eager to rush into his arms.But before

    Camilla's point of howFeathery kisses peppered my cheeks and I smiled, knowing who it was."If you don't get up this instant Camila, I swear I'll make sure you don't leave this bed for the next week," he growled.His threat was enough to make me sit up with wide eyes, and I turned to glare at his handsome face. It seemed like it didn't have any effect on him."Luciano, do we really have to wake up, and must you always threaten me?" I uttered in annoyance."I believe that's not an annoyance I hear in your voice, Gem." He shot a brow up, making me lower my head."Come on, get ready so we can have breakfast and leave." He instructed, and I furrowed my brows, confused."Leave?" I asked."I discovered you've been alone and bored, so we are going out," he explained. A smile spread on my lips, and I jumped into his arms."Thank you, Luciano." I whispered against his chest. He was stiff at first but eventually wrapped his arm around my waist.I immediately guessed he was not the hugging kin
