LOGIN**This book is the second book in the Billionaire series. It can be read as a standalone novel, but it is highly suggested that you read The Billionaire’s First Glance prior to this novel.** I, Zander Cavanaugh, the all-American football quarterback, have done something that could get me killed. I fell in love with the brilliant, curvy mafia princess Isabella Aventini at first sight. Everything about Isabella called to me: her captivating blue eyes, her soft caramel skin, every dip and curve of her voluptuous body was just the start. Isabella was smart, kind, and funny. The kind of girl you can’t help but fall in love with. I know she felt the same way as I did. We were drawn together like magnets, but that’s not how the mafia works. Isabella is a commodity to be sold or brokered for the sake of alliances and has been promised to the ruthless and cutthroat DeMarco family since birth — a fate she neither wants nor needs. Isabella’s father, Mafia Don Salvatore Aventini, has managed to keep us apart by sending Isabella away to finish high school. However, when fates aligned, Isabella not only ended up attending the same university as me, but she’s also my college-assigned tutor. I know there is no chance for us, and still I fell in love with her, knowing it could mean my death.
View MoreIsabella’s POVAfter the ultrasound, everyone took off to find Zander, leaving me settled back in my room. It’s not like him to leave without telling anyone where he’s going. I unblocked him on my phone and tried texting him, but there was no reply. Did he block me back? The thought makes me sick to my stomach. No, he would never do that to me. I only did it to him to protect him. I can’t wait to tell him that our love created life. Zander will be excited. He told me he'd been thinking about having babies with me. Well, hold on to your hat, Zander, we’re having twins. I place my hand on my tummy.“Hi there, my babies,” I said, smiling. “Mummy and Daddy will love you more than you can ever imagine. You are so special, and I will take every day of my life to make sure you know it.”I heard a commotion out in the hallway. The door opens, and a couple of guys drag in Franco, unconscious.“What are you doing?” I yelled, hopping out of bed.“Calm down, mia piccola bambola,” Antonio grinned
I don’t know how long I was out for, but when I woke up, I had one hell of a headache. Not to mention my shoulder was throbbing like someone had stuck their finger in my bullet wound. I was also tied to a chair that was bolted to the ground. It looks like I’m in some sort of interrogation room in a warehouse or basement. Fuck. Is that blood splattered on the concrete floor? Did Antonio kidnap me? If so, I’m dead. I hear footsteps approaching me. This is it. Antonio is going to torture me and then kill me for seeing Isabella. I guess it was just a matter of time until he found out. It’s been a good life, and I don’t regret one single minute with Isabella. In fact, I’d do it all over again.I look up as the footsteps come closer.“Zander,” Mr. Aventini scowled, the vein on his forehead bulging.“Mr. Aventini?” I said, confused.“Don’t you dare, Mr. Aventini, me, you degenerate,” Mr. Aventini barked at me.Shit. He knows about Isabella and me. Do I deny it, or do I acknowledge the fact t
Zander’s POVAmelie was sitting on the couch with me when her phone went off with a notification.“Who is it?” I asked.“Nina,” Amelie relayed, standing up and heading to the kitchen.“Is something wrong?” I sat up on the couch.“No, I just need to drop something off at the hospital,” Amelie responded.“I’m coming with you,” I said, trying to sit up on the couch.Trudy walked out of the kitchen. “You are not going anywhere, young man,” Trudy scolded. “Keep your butt on the couch.”“But Trudy…”“Don’t you dare, but Trudy me!” Trudy replied. “You are staying right there. Doctor’s and Trudy’s orders.”I sighed and lay back down. “This is totally unfair. I need to be with Isabella,” I said, pouting.“You’re no help to Isabella if you are not healthy, or you are dead,” Amelie stated. “Now stay put, and I will let you know what’s going on as soon as possible.”“Yes, Mom 1 and Mom 2,” I pouted. Both Trudy and Amelie laughed.“Trudy, I just texted Morgan and Kimmy,” Amelie advised. “They shou
Isabella’s POVUgh. Mama won’t stop fussing over me. She’s only been at the hospital for 30 minutes, but it feels like hours. Papa came back into the room after calling Franco, and he kept pacing. They are both driving me nuts! Don’t get me wrong, I love them to bits, but they are totally stressing me out.“Mama, please,” I begged. “I’m ok, don’t fuss so much. Papa, stop pacing, you’re stressing me.”Papa exhaled, “Sorry, Mia Stellina. I’m just worried about you.”“I know, but you’re making me anxious,” I stated. The door opened, and Dr. Moore walked into the room. “Hi, Isabella,” Dr. Moore said, smiling. “How are you feeling?”“Still feeling a little dizzy, but other than that I’m doing ok,” I responded.“Well, I got your blood work back,” Dr. Moore stated. “Do you want to discuss the results in private?” Dr. Moore looked at me as if he suggested that I do that.I was puzzled. Whatever the results, I’m sure my parents would like to hear them. “No, you can go
