ISABELLA'S POV

It’s been three months since the biggest disaster, shock, and happiness of my life. Three months since I, as well as everyone else, found out Luca had a twin brother. Three months since Antonio had become an engaged man, and three months since I'd been a mother and also…

“Goddamnit, Luca, I said the beige… not grey!” I cursed, storming towards him to yank the beige little beret off his hands before tucking it back on Quincy’s head. As Quincy smiled widely at me, I dug my teeth into my lower lip, anxiety coursing through me.

I'd been dying to make a proper first impression. Especially for Quincy — I didn’t want his first public party to have a shitty memory.

“The tie?” I asked, glancing sideways at Ciro, who looked just as appalled and scared as Luca. He fumbled around in the box behind him before reaching for a tie.

I dragged out a sigh, nodding a simple smile and whispering a thank you to him before knotting it in place for Quincy. Satisfied with my handiwork, I rel

  • TANGLED LOYALTIES:BOUND BY VENGEANCE   Double edged

    CIRO'S POV.News flash, Luca might be a forgiving type, especially to everyone he'd considered family. But I, on the other hand, was petty, nasty, and picky as fuck, and I wouldn’t bat an eye twice even if it was my own mother."You lied to us," I retorted angrily, studying her in the seat, wondering what she could probably have to say. If left to my terms, I’d have had her kicked off the property. She showed no remorse, no empathy—huffing and puffing out smoke from that damned tobacco like a fucking exhaust.She looked nothing like the dear, angelic woman in the picture I’d worshiped, cried to, and curled up in bed with growing up. She looked nothing like a mother."I have no interest in knowing what you want or where you’ve been, and if you coming here is one of your last dying wishes—looking for children to paint reverence on or give you flowers—then you are doing it wrong, especially when you should be playing the part of being dead already," Luca snapped.He locked his gaze with

  • TANGLED LOYALTIES:BOUND BY VENGEANCE   Welcome home

    LUCA'S POV.Alessia visibly paled, her teeth dug deep into her lower lip while staring blankly at me."How… you…" she stuttered, losing track of her words while I glanced back at my brother, who seemed to have the same deadly glare passed at her. Maybe I needed to sit this one out. I'd hurt him way too much—my existence alone had been a hard pill for him to swallow, and I'd be damned if I ever let anyone stand in his way or cause him the slightest form of trouble."Don’t act so shocked, Alessia. You weren’t so pale—you seemed so sure of yourself when you lied to my face about a pregnancy. Remember?" Ciro asked again. She took trembling steps backward, but her shoulders were caught by Kirill, whose gaze lined with mine. I gave him a gentle nod before he shoved her forward."She tricked me, you know?" Ciro asked, glancing sideways at me. Of course, I knew a thing or two about her deceitful ways, but now it only raked up my curiosity. Desperate as I was to know why Alessia stood before u

  • TANGLED LOYALTIES:BOUND BY VENGEANCE   The ricci shitstorm

    .CIRO'S POV.My gaze narrowed past Luca and then to the crowd behind him, each one of whom I knew too well. From Antonio—his trusted ally and best friend—to Mancini, his current backbone. Isabella, the wife whom he loved way too much, more than himself. He blocked my line of sight from Isabella as if buttressing my point and reading through my mind. I shifted my eyes to lock with his, his defiant gaze burning through mine. But I didn’t falter. I’d pictured what this day would be—when we finally met, came to stand facing one another. I’d bet a million lives on it that he hadn’t expected this, and the expression on his face… it was golden. “Isabella, baby, please tuck Quincy in his room while we sort this out.” He spoke, his eyes never leaving mine. The murderous, hateful glint in his eyes sent chills down my spine. Isabella passed me a faint smile, being all courtesy and manners while she pushed her way past us back to the door. “Fuck, am I high, or is this really happening?”

    LUCA.Flashes of cameras followed, loud murmurs erupted amongst the crowd as Isabella stared wide-eyed at me in disbelief.Oh, I knew what was going through her head at that moment. The thought that she’d suddenly become a mother overnight—she wasn’t prepared for it, but I knew she’d be the best.I always wanted a family, and although I’d derailed from the plan to begin with—I should have married Alessia, kept up a public-saving face just for the press—but standing there, exchanging those vows, barely seconds ago, I knew I couldn’t. I loved Isabella, and she’d be the only person to ever wear my Ricci ring on that finger.“You can’t do this to me! You can’t just toss me aside—the child is mine!” Alessia chanted, her words holding a loud echo. But I only nodded slowly, not having the least bit of empathy for her.“I can, Alessia, and I have,” I murmured, storming past her toward Isabella. I locked my fingers into hers, her widened gaze still fixated on me as she held my son closer to he

  • TANGLED LOYALTIES:BOUND BY VENGEANCE   Luca's Deceit

    LUCA'S POV.I tensed seeing Isabella settled into the car with me. I’d gotten notified beforehand by Antonio about her joining in on the plan.Yet it hadn’t prepared me for this moment. I swallowed hard, trying to distract myself with the thought of Antonio also making an appearance to the Bratva about being alive too. For a billion and one reasons, I didn’t see today ending well by any means.“Good day,” I greeted slowly, my words hanging thin as I spoke. My heart raced in my chest, seeing how she locked her gaze with mine before moving them from my hair down to my feet and back up in a painfully slow motion that bothered me.“Can we please not do this, Isabella? I do not want to lose you, and I feel like an asshole for ruining what we’ve been building. But can we please…”“Start over again?” she asked, stealing the words right off my lips. I swallowed hard, my Adam’s apple bobbing. Yes, I was scared.I’d literally lied to her face, knowing full well she was a no-nonsense type of lad
