Dante's POV

The heat from the burning warehouse scorched my skin, but the blood in my veins ran ice-cold.

I stood there with my arms crossed across my chest and the fire reflecting in my eyes. The flames were so huge that I was sure the whole city could easily see my defeat from their terrace. They weren't looking at my defeat; they were looking at a declaration of war.

I kept standing there like a stone. My men were standing beside me, waiting for my command.

​"How did this happen?" I finally

  • Seducing my Father's Enemy    28. The power couple

    Dante's POVBOOM.The earth shook beneath my feet.The steel doors of the subterranean vault blew completely off their hinges as the fire shot up into the air. Suddenly my knees gave out, and I collapsed on the ground.I didn't break even when I was sentenced to jail. I didn't give up even at the cruellest torture in prison, but I just couldn't hold myself together knowing that Clara was still inside the Vault. I knew I should rush inside to save her, but I couldn't move. My body was paralysed as I watched the fire slowly taking over the entire place. Suddenly, a heavy hand grabbed my shoulder, pulling me backwards."End of the line, Don Salvatore!" a harsh voice spat.It was one of Falcone's perimeter guards. I felt the cold barrel of his pistol press directly against the back of my skull. I should have drawn my knife. I should have fought. But looking at the inferno in front of me, my brain was completely blank.I have faced worse than this, but Clara... Fuck Clara... No matter h

  • Seducing my Father's Enemy    27. Only mine to Ruin

    DANTE'S POV I should never have listened to Alberti or Clara. I already knew how dangerous it could be for Clara to go there; still, I allowed her. Fuck myself. I decided to stay outside Falcone's estate while Clara was inside, but Alberti took me away. He forced me to stay out of a three-kilometre range from the estate because the security of Falcone was too high, and Clara's life could be in danger if he got even a whiff of our plan. Every second Clara was inside, and Falcone was breathing around her, I couldn't sit in my seat. If it were not Alberti on my side and my men's lives at stake, I would have pulled Clara out of that filthy space. I regretted my decision the moment she stepped inside the gates. And to add fuel to the fire, she didn't listen to me. She seduced him. She let him touch her. The beast in me was growling to claim her tonight. To teach her such a strong lesson that she never forgets who owns her. I will! But first, I needed her to come out of this place

  • Seducing my Father's Enemy    26. Against his wish

    Bang! The sound of the bang was followed by Dante screaming my name, but at that moment, the bullet that left the gun to kill me became my world. Suddenly, that time became so slow that I could literally see the bullet moving towards me. It was not the bullet that I was watching. It was my death itself. I saw the spark of ignition and could practically trace the 9mm hollow-point bullet as it tore through the space between us, aiming directly for my heart.At that moment, my brain turned blank. Not even for a split second did I think that he could use his gun on me. But just when the bullet was about to touch my heart and end my game right here, my body reacted out of fear. I threw my entire weight violently to the left and twisted my torso, which made my stilettos slip against the Persian rug.I fell on the ground with a loud thud, and just at the same moment, the bullet passed beside my ear. It was so close I felt the burning kinetic heat of the metal. "Clara! Tell me you are

  • Seducing my Father's Enemy    25. Stealing from the Lion

    As soon as the words left my mouth, he didn't waste a single second grabbing my hand tightly and leading me towards his private suite. His fellow mates cheered for him when he took me away, as if he won something. My heart hammered in my chest. He could easily kill me in his room. "You still have time to rethink your decision", Dante's voice reached my ears. But the damage has already been done. There is no going back now. My heart dropped in my stomach when he closed the doors to his room with a click. He tossed his tailored suit jacket over a velvet chair and turned around to face me. "Take off the mask", he commanded. I swallowed hard and fisted my palms. "Don't remove it, Clara. He might recognise you because of the recent news" Dante's voice came through the comms. It was full of concern. I inhaled a deep breath and swayed my hips gracefully while walking towards the round glass table in the middle of the room. I leaned down, picked up the liquor bottle, and poured it in

  • Seducing my Father's Enemy    24. The deadly offer

    My heart hammered in my chest loudly, not because I was driving a car after ages, but because of what was waiting for me ahead. I may have boldly volunteered to go into Falcone's den, but there is no doubt that it is very dangerous. It could be possible that I do not come back alive. I exhaled a sharp breath and shook my head to stay positive. This is going to be the most challenging mission I have ever gone on. I have to win it for myself. My gaze flicked to the rear-view mirror for once. Dante was driving behind me, but he was a few miles away because we didn't want to raise suspicion. Alberti hadn't been exaggerating. I was practically standing in front of a fortress. Armed guards patrolled the perimeter with rifles strapped to their chests. High-tech surveillance cameras were all over the grounds, and the long driveway was lined with luxury cars and politicians. I pulled the Audi up to the valet station to park. I smoothed down my dress, grabbed my clutch, and steppe

  • Seducing my Father's Enemy    23. The woman on mission

    I stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror in the master suite, staring at the woman looking back at me. The woman on mission. The woman I almost forgot in the last few days. Before finalising the dress, I went through the entire wardrobe Dante had provided. I wanted to look my best because I don't want to lose this war at any cost. And even if I am going to die today, I want it to happen in my best form. I slid my hand slowly down my body. I was wearing a black silk gown that clung to every single curve of my body like a second skin. It had a cowl neckline and dipped back. A slit ran up to my thigh, under which I had concealed a blade, just for my safety. I tied my hair up in a messy bun and let a few curled strands frame my face perfectly. I kept my makeup sharp and my lips coated in crimson. I was ready! I reached across the glass vanity for my perfume before I finally stepped out of this room. But just when my fingers touched the perfume bottle, the doors clicked open.
