Felix’s POV

The Grand Ballroom of the Pierre Hotel was a sea of shimmering silk, fake smiles, and the heavy, cloying scent of old money. I stood on the mezzanine, leaning against the gilded railing with a glass of champagne I had no intention of finishing. Below me, the elite of Manhattan moved like schools of fish—vulnerable, shiny, and utterly oblivious to the shark in the water.

Tonight wasn't just a party. It was a coronation. And my brothers and I were the ones holding the crown.

  • Taken by my stepfathers   The Predator’s Gala

    Felix’s POVThe Grand Ballroom of the Pierre Hotel was a sea of shimmering silk, fake smiles, and the heavy, cloying scent of old money. I stood on the mezzanine, leaning against the gilded railing with a glass of champagne I had no intention of finishing. Below me, the elite of Manhattan moved like schools of fish—vulnerable, shiny, and utterly oblivious to the shark in the water.Tonight wasn't just a party. It was a coronation. And my brothers and I were the ones holding the crown."She looks like a goddamn miracle," Luca muttered, stepping up beside me. He was still in his sling, but he’d traded the tactical gear for a bespoke midnight-blue tux. His eyes were glued to the centre of the floor.I followed his gaze. Eden—or Aiden, as the dark, hidden parts of her soul whispered—was standing under the main chandelier. She was draped in a gown of liquid silver that clung to every curve we had spent the last few weeks marking. The Moretti ring glinted on her finger, a middle finger to e

  • Taken by my stepfathers   The Golden Handcuffs

    Eden’s POVThe mansion was too quiet, yet I could feel the walls breathing. That was the thing about living with the Schmidts—you were never actually alone. Privacy wasn't a right here; it was a luxury they handed out in small, measured doses, and today, my cup was dry.I woke up late, my body still heavy with the memory of Silas and Daniel. The silver ring on my finger felt like it weighed five pounds. I tried to slip out of bed without waking Luca, who was sprawled across the silk sheets like a fallen god, his breathing deep and rhythmic. I moved like a ghost, bare feet hitting the cold marble, wanting nothing more than ten minutes of silence and a cup of coffee that didn't come with a side of power plays.I made it as far as the second-floor landing before the illusion of freedom shattered.Felix was leaning against the railing, tossing a heavy brass lighter into the air and catching it with a snick. He wasn’t dressed for the day yet, wearing only pajama pants that hung low on his

  • Taken by my stepfathers   Threesome with my husbands

    Eden’s POVThe silver ring felt heavy on my finger—a cold, physical reminder of the man I’d ended and the king who had crowned me on a leather-topped table. I walked into the sunroom, the morning light cutting through the floor-to-ceiling windows with a sharpness that made my head ache.The table was set. The smell of black coffee, thick-cut bacon, and expensive cigars filled the air. They were all there. Daddy sat at the head, his face a mask of calm satisfaction. Luca looked tired but proud, his arm in a fresh sling. Felixwas scrolling through a tablet, a smirk playing on his lips as he read the morning’s damage reports. But it was Silas and Daniel I noticed most. They weren't eating. They were watching the door.I took my seat at the opposite end of the table. As I reached for the coffee carafe, the sunlight caught the Moretti ring.The room went silent.Silas’s eyes locked onto the silver band. His jaw tightened, the muscles in his neck cording like steel cables. Daniel didn't say

  • Taken by my stepfathers   Daddy’s Reward

    Eden’s POVThe bed was still warm with Luca’s scent, but the room was too quiet. Luca was out cold, his arm draped across the space where I’d been lying just moments before. I stood by the window, wrapped in a dark robe, looking out at the sprawling grounds of the mansion. The victory feast felt like a lifetime ago. The adrenaline had faded, leaving behind a cold, sharp hunger that sleep couldn't fix.A soft knock at the door made me turn. It wasn't one of the brothers. It was a man I recognized from the security detail."He’s waiting for you in the library," the man said, his voice low.He didn't have to say who. There was only one person who summoned at four in the morning.I walked through the darkened hallways, the silk of my robe whispering against my legs. The house felt different tonight. The air was charged, heavy with the aftermath of the Bronx and the knowledge that the world outside was smaller now. I reached the double oak doors of the library and pushed them open.Daddy w

  • Taken by my stepfathers   The Cleanse

    Luca’s POVThe adrenaline from the Bronx was still humming under my skin like a live wire. My knuckles were bruised, my shirt was ruined, and the smell of the city—smoke, rain, and old blood—was clinging to me. We’d had the feast Grandpa ordered, a heavy, silent meal of red meat and expensive wine, but I couldn't taste any of it. My eyes were fixed on the girl at the end of the table.Eden. She’d sat there with Moretti’s blood practically still under her fingernails, wearing that gold crest like it had grown there. She didn't look like a victim anymore. She looked like the eye of the storm.When she excused herself to go upstairs, I waited exactly three minutes before I pushed back my chair and followed. None of my brothers stopped me. They knew. We were all vibrating with the same dark energy, but I was the one who reached the stairs first.I didn't knock. I walked into the master suite and heard the hiss of the shower behind the frosted glass. I stripped my clothes off in the middle

  • Taken by my stepfathers   The Bronx is Burning

    Silas’s POVThe drive to the Bronx was a straight shot of pure, directed violence. We didn't use the SUVs this time; we used three blacked-out vans that looked like utility vehicles. Inside, the air was thick with the smell of gun oil and the heavy breathing of twelve men who lived for this.I sat in the back, my hands steady as I checked the action on my tactical shotgun. Beside me, Father sat with Eden. He had his arm around her, pulling her into his side. She was wearing a heavy tactical jacket over her dress, the gold Schmidt crest tucked beneath the zipper. She looked like a ghost—pale, silent, and deadly."The club is called La Fortezza," I said, looking at the tablet in my lap. "Two exits. One in the front, one in the service alley. Moretti is in the basement office. He thinks the reinforced concrete and the twenty men upstairs will keep him safe.""He thinks like an old man," Father said, his voice a low, vibrating chord. "He thinks walls matter. Daniel, what’s the status of t

  • Taken by my stepfathers   The beast was just getting started

    Daniel’s POVThe iron scent of the basement clung to me like a second skin. It was in the fibers of my shirt, under my fingernails, and coating the back of my throat. Violence, when done in such a way, has a way of lingering. It is a primitive residue.I looked at Eden. She was standing in the cente

    Chapter 5: The Architecture of Silence (Continued)Daniel’s POVThe library was the heart of the estate, a room of dark oak, leather-bound history, and a silence so thick it felt like it had its own pulse.

    Eden’s POVThe door to Daniel’s study closed behind me with a soft click, but the weight of that sound followed me down the hallway like something much louder had just been sealed shut, like a decision had been placed on the table and left there waiting for me to either claim it or run from it.I d

    Eden's POVDaniel hauled me up like a sack of potatoes, slinging me over his broad shoulder. My heavy tits slapped against his cheek with every step, nipples scraping his stubbled jaw. Blood rushed to my head, face dangling down his back, perfect view of his ass flexing in those wet trunks. But low
