Roman’s POV

The second those words tore from my throat, Franca lost it. She shoved past us, tears smearing her makeup, and bolted out the front entrance.

The door slammed against the frame with a violent crack. I stared at the empty space where she’d just been, a cold sneer tightening my jaw.

The hypocrisy of that woman was nauseating.

    Roman’s POVThe second those words tore from my throat, Franca lost it. She shoved past us, tears smearing her makeup, and bolted out the front entrance. The door slammed against the frame with a violent crack. I stared at the empty space where she’d just been, a cold sneer tightening my jaw. The hypocrisy of that woman was nauseating. What right did she have to cry? She had spent the day stabbing her best friend in the back, yet the second the blood spilled onto her own dress, she played the broken victim.Dario jerked forward, instinct driving him to run after his little mistress, but he froze midway across the polished marble floor. The tension in the room stretched razor-thin. Slowly, he turned back around, his eyes burning with a desperate defiance.He closed the space between us, his designer shoes clicking sharply against the floor. “Since when are you a man of so many words, Roman?" he spat, his voice trembling under a pathetic attempt at bravado. “Lest I forget, you bar

  • Tempting The Devil’s Son   Chapter 9: Choose Your Shame

    Roman’s POVWatching her walk away stung something deep inside my chest.I’m a man who never meddles in other people's filth, but looking at Gianna, I couldn’t help the sudden, sharp wave of pity crashing through me. She wasn't safe out there in the cold night. But the worst part was knowing she thought I was in on it, that I was somehow teaming up with my brother to break her. How the hell did her mind even jump to that conclusion?Watching her cry... watching her beg Dario for the bare minimum of respect and still end up looking like a fool for it killed me. I just stood there, my fists clenching until my knuckles turned white. My brain split in two, should I run after her, grab her by the wrist, and force her to be safe? Or should I just wait until she cooled down and found her way back?What if she doesn’t come back?The thought hit me. What if she just ran back to where she came from? No, her belongings were still sitting in my guest room. She had to come back for her things

    Gianna’s POVHe finally stopped walking when we reached the edge of the large compound. With a smooth, easy motion, he set me down on the concrete walkway.The exact second my feet hit the floor, I whirled around to face him, my chest heaving. "Why did you fucking do that?!""Do what?" Roman asked, completely unbothered."Don't fucking play with me, Roman!" I shouted, the anger roaring back to life inside me. "I said, why did you take me out of there?!""You have to stop yelling when you speak to me, Gianna. I’m not your crazy fiancé."His voice didn't rise, but it dropped into a cold tone that instantly cut the breath from my lungs. I went completely mute the very same minute. It felt like his words had literally shut me up. The quiet, polite man who had taken me out to dinner was completely gone, replaced by someone heavy with a dark, unyielding authority.But I forced my chin up, refusing to back down completely. "And who are you that I can’t?"He took a slow step forward, his to

    Gianna’s POVTears blurred my vision, hot and stinging, but I refused to let them fall. The pathetic audacity of his response turned my blood into pure gasoline. I couldn't even face his mask of indifference without wanting to rip it off."Is this a joke to you, you pathetic, small-dick piece of shit?!" I shrieked, the curse words ripping out of me with venom I didn't know I possessed. "You absolute waste of skin! I chased you for years!…degrading myself for a worthless coward who couldn’t even be a man if his life depended on it. You are a disgusting, bottom-feeding parasite, Dario. I hope you choke on your own filth!"Dario’s nonchalant smirk finally faltered, his eyes darkening as the insults hit their mark. But I was already over him. I shifted my gaze, my chest heaving as I locked onto the real viper in the room."But you know what? You aren't even my problem," I spat, stepping closer to the sofa, my fingers curling into tight, trembling fists. “It’s this cheap, backstabbing

  • Tempting The Devil’s Son   Chapter 6: Everything falls apart

    Roman’s POVI stood in the center of my bedroom, a towel tied loosely around my waist, water still dripping from my skin onto the floor. The door was still jammed tight, trapping us inside the small space. Across the room, Gianna was stunned like a caged bird, her eyes darting away every time they met mine.The silence between us was thick, but my mind was louder.What the hell was wrong with me? I was a man of absolute silence. In my world, words were a liability. I had spent the last ten years mastering total detachment, locking my emotions behind a wall of ice. I had never spoken more than five lines of words to anyone. Not to my own brother, Dario. Not to the men begging for mercy at my feet before I pulled the trigger. Barely even to my father.Yet, trapped in this room with Gianna, I had talked more than I had spoken to anyone in my entire life.I had teased her about her hunger. I had pushed her buttons about the wedding, questioning her like a jealous, possessive man. He

  • Tempting The Devil’s Son   Chapter 5: Caught in the Act

    Gianna’s POVI came out from the shower, steam clinging to my skin as I pulled on a simple, sleeveless cream dress with a high turtleneck. After twisting my hair up into a neat, secure bun and checking my reflection, I stepped out of the room.Roman was waiting in the living room and the moment my heels clicked against the floorboards, he stood up."Ready?""Sure," I answered, though a nervous flare vibrated in my chest.His eyes traveled an intentional path from the top of my head down to my shoes, the intensity of his gaze making my skin tingle."You look stunning, Gianna," he said smoothly then turned and strode out the front door without waiting for a reply.I stood there completely stunned. A bitter memory resurfaced, Dario had never offered me a compliment. Not once in all the years I had spent trailing behind him. Yet his brother could make my cheeks burn with a single lookWhen I stepped outside, the sight in the driveway took my breath away, a blood-red sports car, sleek and
