Sinfully Yours' Step-Brother of Mine Better Than Dead
Dark, foggy and cold. The street was desolate, just like my heart. I shuffled down the run-down lane of a place I had no inkling what it was called. I’d strayed too far from the bus stop Dominic had dropped me off. I had no idea how much distance I’d covered. Walking aimlessly for days, I was drained and dehydrated but my legs seemed to have a mind and strength of their own that kept them going, my footsteps muffled by the strong wind blanketing the night.Far away, I needed to get far away from Demetrio.A chilly wind cut past me, making me shudder and I wrapped one hand around myself, the other gripping tightly on my slung duffel bag.I dodged several plastic bags flying around in the air, avoided a murky puddle and pressed on. The streets grew even darker as I walked further into the night, I was losing moonlight and needed to find somewhere to rest for the night. Somewhere proper this time, not the cardboard shack I’d been subjecting myself to. Right before we parted, Dominic had
Sinfully Yours' Step-Brother of Mine Race Against Time
Demetrio’s pov“A week, Demetrio. That’s how long you’re required to rest.” Dominic nagged even as he helped me sit up like I ordered him to.“When did you say Grigori was arriving?” I threw at Dominic, ignoring his previous statement. My mind was occupied with thoughts of Cellie and what new discoveries Grigori made that had him sounding so out of breath when we spoke on the phone earlier.I couldn’t wait to hear what he had for me.It’s been four days since I woke up from my cursed coma. And Dominic and Alfonso have been on my neck about how fast I was taking things. I knew they were only worried about me but it annoyed me nonetheless.Cellie’s been out in the wild with no protection, it killed me more not knowing where she was and if she was safe. Demanding answers from her friend hadn’t helped, Diana had sworn she had no idea and from the scared and worried look she had, I could tell she was telling the truth.Cellie told nobody where she was going.Dominic assisted me as I slowly
Sinfully Yours' Step-Brother of Mine Back To Life
Demetrio’s povThe woman was crying, tears staining her cheeks, her eyes red and puffy. “Demetrio!” She called.Cellie.I tried to call back but my lips refused to move as if sealed together with tape.“Demetrio!” Cellie called again.I’m right here, baby. I wanted to tell her, I wanted to wipe her tears but my lips weren’t the only thing frozen in place.“His eyes are fluttering, he is about to wake up?” A new voice said, sounding far off.I ignored focusing only on—“Please wake up. Please don’t die.” Cellie said, pleadingly.I’m not going to–“Boss! Are you awake?”My eyes slowly open to the blurry faces of Dominic and Santino, loaming over me.“He’s awake! Alfonso! The Don is awake.” Santino—or was it Dominic?— was yelling.Alfonso came into the frame, something very similar to a stethoscope dangling from his neck. He began asking questions but everything was starting to tip over once more and the only words I caught before slipping back into darkness were painkillers and stitches
Sinfully Yours' Step-Brother of Mine Stay With Me
Cellie’s pov“Demetrio.” I nudged him gently, my hands shaky as fear, shock and rising panic seeped into my bones.He didn’t respond. He didn’t move. All of him, all big mass that was his body just laid in my arms, still and limp.Except for the blood. It trickled relentlessly.More panic surged through my veins as I stared at him, my vision going blurry. I blinked away the tears.My heart seized with terror, each second stretching into an eternity. I clutched him tighter, desperately hoping to feel some sign of life.“Demetrio, please,” my voice broke. “Stay with me.” I looked back at his wound and my heart beat even faster. He was losing a lot of blood so much his rich, olive skin was turning pale.Thinking fast, I took off the jacket he gave to me earlier, folded it into a ball and pressed it to where the bullet tore through while praying desperately that it will help slow down the blood loss.Demetrio reacted to the pressure, his breath coming out in a ragged wheeze, a small sound
Sinfully Yours' Step-Brother of Mine Fall Of A King
Cellie’s povIt was that day on the DeLeon patio all over again. Gunshots fired off all around me, likely killing whoever was the target. A full on war was going on but I was crouched in the dark space of a rusted mediumly large container, my hands pressed over my ears as I rocked myself in an attempt to fight off the dark memories threatening to resurface— me, locked in a closet as my father ducked around our tiny living room, trying to find cover from the bullets being shot at him.He failed.Now, so many years later I was in a similar situation and this time I’d tried to help the very man responsible for that fateful Sunday. It was a laughable situation.A shot went off somewhere very close to where I was and I stiffened in fear. Was there even a chance that I might make it out alive? Was there a chance that any of us will? I thought about Demetrio and my pulse quickened. Was he okay? Hurt? Was he…I snapped my eyes shut, refusing to complete the thought. I was scared out of my min
Sinfully Yours' Step-Brother of Mine Dance With Devils
Cellie’s povI looked to Demetrio and it took a while for his tight nod of approval to come. His body was rigid and I knew he was trying hard to not show that he cared. My reassuring smile was brief and passing, covert enough to not make Alexei read into it.“Dominic,” Demetrio called and his right hand man stepped forward. He looked at me, gesturing me forward, already aware of what his boss wanted him to do. I fought the urge to look at Demetrio one last time and turned to the Russians.I faced Alexei squarely, my hands balling at my side and I let hate take over me. I hated him for what he put Manuel through. I hated him for making those innocent teenagers die alongside their father. I hated him for every single time Demetrio was stressed because of him, for every single time I had to live in fear.I channeled this hate, turning it to confidence, letting it strangle my fear. With this hate, I propelled forward. One step and another and another, feeling Demetrio’s unwavering presenc

Demetrio’s povThirty Minutes Before“Don, we need to make a decision now.” Santino cautioned, flipping his gun in hand. “You said that Russian fucker gave you two hours, it’s been an hour and a half, we can’t wait any longer.”I turned away from my living room window to glare at him. He was right
Sinfully Yours' Step-Brother of Mine Between The Devil And The Deep Blue Sea

Sinfully Yours' Step-Brother of Mine Great Escape
Cellie’s pov“Wait here.” Diana instructed before she left the pantry.I heard her chat briefly with the guys, sounding natural enough not to make them suspicious. Whatever she was about to do, I had no idea but I was fully on board. This was not the solution I’d envisioned but it was still a prese
Sinfully Yours' Step-Brother of Mine Loan Shark
Cellie’s povWhen I woke up and realized Demetrio was gone, I wasted no time in showering and getting dressed, barely sitting through my poor breakfast of cold cookies and instant coffee.I found Sergio and Nino exactly where I knew they’d be— outside my door. “We are going to Salato’s.” I said, pu
