Elian stormed into the wildly decorated bedroom, already peeling off every layer of clothing on him. He threw the million dollar suit on him to the floor and turned to glare at his rival, aka his husband, who just walked past him, pretending as if he wasn't even standing there.
Anger boiled in him as he stared at the broad back of Dex Russo, a dangerous and ruthless Mafia Boss, who was now his husband. The thought alone spiked the anger already boiling in him and before he could think, he unsheathed his dagger and aimed at the back of his head, but Dex turned just in time to pin him roughly against the wall, his back against Dex's very broad chest, and his large, rough hands found Elian's throat immediately. In such unfavourable state, Elian still had it in him to twist his neck sideways and glare at his husband, whose eyes were filled with a type of craze Elian knew too well, he'd seen it a lot in the past few years of rivalry with him, such a shame that the man he once swore to hate to death was the one he was now bounded to. Dex twisted his wrist and snatched the blade from Elian's grip, he tossed it to the side and smirked back at him. “You look disappointed Elian.’ He hissed, his thumb pressing hard against Elian's pulse just enough to feel the frantic rythm. “Did you think I'd let my guard down enough to let you play your stupid tricks?” Elian's glare dissolved into a sharp grin and he leaned back into Dex's chest, his eyes dancing with some kind of maniac light as he looked into his eyes, they were nose to nose, eyes to eyes, and lips barely away from each other. Another knife he'd hidden in his sleeve dropped into his caged hand and he pointed it at Dex's torso. Dex looked down and glared back up at Elian. “I'd be surprised if you didn't try to choke me Dex.” Elian said softly and twisted himself out of Dex's hold. He raised the knife and placed it against Dex's chin, pressing it dangerously close to his skin. “But don't get too comfortable. I'm pretty sure you know that already.” He whispered in his face and stalked off to the other side of the bedroom and began taking the rest of his clothes off. Dex stared at him with a strange heat in his eyes. Those dark eyes of his, filled with irritation? Anger? They were glued to Elian's skin as he slowly undressed himself. When Elian was done, he turned to look at Dex, whose eyes were still on him. “I'll be taking a shower now.” He announced, not giving a damn about the fact that he was naked. “No you're not.” Dex said evenly. “And who are you to stop me?” He sneered and tried to walk past him to the bathroom but Dex grabbed him again for the second time that night, he twisted Elian's arms behind his back, forcing a genuine gasp of pain from him and hauled him on to the massive bed covered with roses. They hit the bed like two collapsing stars and Dex pinned Elian's wrists above his head with a single hand and rested his weight on him, his breaths came out in short pants as he locked eyes with Elian's crazed filled ones. And Elian, despite being pinned heavily to the bed, used his legs to hook Dex's waist and pulled him impossibly close, his teeth grazing Dex's earlobe. “You're shaking husband. Is it the hate? Or are you finally succumbing to me?” He whispered in his ear. Dex smirked and turned his head to meet his eyes, their noses barely inches away from each other, and their lips a breathe away from touching. “Am I?” He asked and made a move to grab Elian's dick. Elian's eyes widened as he saw what Dex was about to do, and on instinct, he kicked him in the torso and grabbed the gun placed by the side table. Dex grunted in pain at the kick and looked at Elian who already had the gun pointed in his face, he doged just in time as two bullets flew past him and broke the mirror into pieces. “You fucking bitch!” Dex roared and lunged at Elian. —————— An hour later, the room was a wreck. The bedside lamp lay scattered, blown apart by no doubt, a bullet. The smell of gunpowder filled the room, the roses on the bed barely remained on the bed and was mostly scattered and crushed on the floor. The silk sheets of the bed was half torn and the dressing mirror layed on the floor in a million pieces. Dex sat at the edge of the bed, shirtless, Elian had tore the shirt off him like an animal in the middle of their mission to unalive each other. He lit a cigarette and let out puffs of smoke, wincing when he felt the scratches on his back pulsate. 'My husband is a fucking animal.’ he thought to himself as he continued to inhale and exhale smoke. Behind him, Elian sprawled on the bed, breathless and bruised. He now wore a bathrobe to cover his nakedness but did nothing to cover the red bruise around his neck from where Dex choked him to get him to drop the gun. He stared at the ceiling with a terrifying contentment. Then at Dex's bruised back, he smiled maniacally, sickly satisfied at his work. He reached out with his foot and slowly traced the scratch marks with his toe. Dex turned abruptly and smacked his leg away. He took out the cigarette from between his lips and slowly puffed out smoke, making deadly eye contact with Elian. “If you try to kill me in my sleep.” He started slowly. “Make sure you don't miss. Because if I wake up, you'll wish I'd blown your fucking head off tonight.” Elian let out a loud hysteric laugh. “Promise?”Some minutes later, they all gathered in the living room. All five of them. The atmosphere was heavy and awkward from the moment everyone sat down. Elian was still at the same spot on the couch, expression closed off. He didn’t look at Elena more than once, and even then his gaze was cold and brief. James stood near the wall behind him, arms crossed. His eyes stayed mostly on Elian. While Mark sat on the opposite side of the room, by the closed window, jaw tight, face set into stone. He kept glancing between Elian and James, as if expecting another argument to start at any second. You couldn't blame him, really. In the short time he'd come to know his boss's husband's right hand man, he had realized James and his boss was alike in so many ways. They were both stubborn, had little patience, and would get ticked off by the littlest things. Elena remained in the chair across from the couch where Elian was seated, hands resting carefully on her lap. She looked composed, but the
The room froze, plunging into a sudden deep silence. Elena was the one that moved first. In one smooth motion she reached under the table, pulled out a compact black pistol, and raised it toward the hallway, both hands steady despite the sudden tension in her shoulders. Her eyes were fixed sharply on the dark corridor where the sound had echoed from. Dex stood up just as quickly, body coiled and ready, drawing out his own gun too. Very much on alert and prepared for whatever was about to walk through that doorway. Unlike Elian, who didn't move an inch from where he sat on the chair. He leaned into the couch like nothing was wrong, one arm resting along the backrest, expression completely unbothered. The contrast was almost unsettling. While Elena remained standing with her gun aimed and her finger close to the trigger, and Dex no less the same, Elian looked as if he had already decided the situation wasn’t worth the effort. The silence stretched, thick and heavy, keeping them
The room plunged into a sudden silence. The cup in Elian’s hand froze mid-air, and he just simply stared at Elena as if the words coming out of her mouth didn't make sense. Dex’s face had turned cold instantly. He looked at Elena like she had just said the most ridiculous thing he had ever heard. True, Dex knew his father wasn’t a saint. In many ways, Derek Russo was worse than Jacob Virelli even. But the idea that his own father would go to this extent, that he would plan his son’s death from the very beginning, felt almost absurd. What the hell was even going on? “Elaborate,” Dex said finally, voice low and controlled. He was trying as much as possible to not throw every plan he had in his head to the fog instead. It gets to a point. Elena exhaled slowly, her fingers tightening together on her lap. “The marriage was never about bringing two heirs together. It was a twisted deal between Derek and Jacob. They were following an old underworld code… a quiet challenge between tw
By the time they reached their destination, the sun was already setting. The sky had turned a deep orange that slowly bled into purple, and the first hints of night were settling over the open land. The long drive had drained both of them. Dex and Elian sat in the back in complete silence the entire way. Elian had a million things he wanted to say, he had questions, but every time he opened his mouth, Dex shot him a sharp look that was enough to shut him up again. After hours of driving through empty roads and endless green fields, they finally arrived at a very haunted-looking building. It stood alone in the middle of nowhere. There were no other buildings or signs of life in sight, just a wide stretch of overgrown grass and a few dying trees. The place looked abandoned at first glance, it had cracked walls, dark dusty windows, and a heavy eerie silence that felt unnatural. Elena drove the car toward a rusted iron gate that looked like one solid hit would make it collapse. Surpri
Dex sighed for what felt like the millionth time and turned another sharp corner. They had been down here for about fifteen minutes. The air was cool and damp, and the only source of light came from the small torch in Dex’s hand, casting long shadows along the rough walls. Elian had no idea where they were or where they were going. And his husband… The moment they had gotten inside and the wall sealed shut behind them, Dex had only said two words. “Follow me.” He had turned on the torch and started leading the way. Since then, he hadn’t said anything else. Just the occasional sigh and the steady sound of their footsteps echoing in the narrow passage. Another sigh came from Dex, and this time, Elian couldn’t keep his silence. “Are you okay?” he asked. Dex didn’t stop walking. “Does it look like I’m okay to you?” he replied sharply. Elian’s eyes narrowed. “Hey.” He reached forward, grabbed Dex’s arm, and turned him around swiftly so they were face to face. The torch light caugh
Elian’s back hit the floor hard, the impact knocking the wind clean out of him. He coughed, gasping for air as he stared up at the ceiling of the training room. Sweat dripped down the side of his face. His arms burned and his legs felt like lead. Dex appeared in his vision with a very serious look on his face. “Get up,” he said from above him. Elian didn’t move. He stayed flat on the floor, chest rising and falling too fast. “We should take a break.” Dex shook his head. “There’s no resting on a battlefield.” Elian sat up with a sharp glare, still breathing hard. “Who the fuck fights on a battlefield for six hours? We’ve been at this since five in the morning. I’m hungry. I’m tired. And I need to take a damn shower.” Dex just gave him that familiar, unimpressed look that always meant he wasn’t going to bend. Elian already knew what it meant, and right now he couldn’t give less of a fuck. “What did I tell you about maintaining your anger?” Dex asked. “Well how the hell am I supp
“You both look…well rested.” Jacob, Elian's grandfather, said finally after eating in silence for the past ten minutes.Jacob, Derek, Dex and Elian sat at the table for brunch. Surprisingly, the both of them had come down at the same time for their late breakfast when it was announced that Elian's
Dex slammed Elian against the glass wall of the bathroom, getting out a low groan from him. In a swift move, he turned on the shower and the water came down on them like a storm. The water was a deafening roar against the glass wall that did nothing to cool the fever burning between them. Elian’
“I expected you to be occupied with each other.” Jacob said coldly, looking at their disheveled state. “But I did not expect you to be so occupied that you would allow three million dollars worth of high grade weaponry to be stolen at the warehouse, by a street gang.”Elian's breath hitched as he r
Elian breathed hard, his senses going haywire as he jumped Dex and they both went down hard. Dex fell to the floor first and then Elian, right on top of him. Elian wrapped around Dex's neck and he squeezed with a sickening glint in his eyes. He wanted to see as life left his eyes, he wanted to be
