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 MoreZander’s POVI couldn’t stop myself. As soon as the words left Bryanna’s mouth, my hand slapped her across her face. I’ve NEVER hit a woman before in anger. Of course, playful spanking with Isabella’s permission doesn’t count, and it was never in anger. I just couldn’t stand Bryanna condemning Isabella to hell and acting like Isabella was the reason for all of her troubles. She had connived, lied, and schemed her way into all of her problems, yet she blamed Isabella for everything.“Shut your fucking mouth, Bryanna!” I yelled. “If you touch one hair on Isabella’s head, you will regret the day you were born.” Bryanna recoiled from my rant.There was an audible gasp from the crowd.“You slapped me?” Bryanna cried. “How could you do that?”“You deserved it,” I spat. “You leave Isabella alone. Do you hear me?”Bryanna narrowed her eyes. “Oh, my fucking god! You love Isabella,” she screeched. “You’re denying our baby because you love that bitch.”The crowd started to murmur to each other.
Zander’s POVWow. That would completely explain why she has been so cryptic on social media about a present for the love of her life, but I never slept with her, which means, shit. Devo is going to be a dad. I looked over at Devo.“Holy fuck,” Devo exclaimed. “Bryanna is pregnant?”“Well, it seems that way,” I confirmed. “You do realize what that means, right?”We all stared in Devo’s direction. He was just oblivious to the situation.“Why are you staring at me?” Devo asked.“Devo,” Isabella said, puzzled. “Devo, think about it. You know where babies come from, right?”It was like we could all see the light bulb go off over Devo’s head.Devo gulped, “I’m going to be a daddy.”“If what we think is true,” I answered. “Yes, Devo.”Devo smiled widely. “I’m going to be a Daddy!” He cheered.“You’re happy about this?” Niles asked.“Yes, who wouldn’t be?” Devo said, smiling. “My boys can swim!”We all laughed.“I wonder if Bryanna wants to get married?” Devo stated.“You want to marry her?”
Isabella’s POV“I don’t know if I should be totally pissed off at you or drop to my knees,” I giggled.“Do I have a say in your decision?” Zander asked.“No, you don’t,” I responded.“Then maybe I should just do this,” Zander said, picking me up and throwing me on the bed.“Zander,” I squealed and giggled. “Not now.”“Why not?” Zander inquired.“Because the door on your side of the connection is still open and Niles can probably hear EVERYTHING,” I told him.“Nah, he can’t hear,” Zander said, attacking my neck.“I think he can,” I giggled.“Then we just have to be very, very quiet,” Zander said, dragging his mouth across my neck.“How am I supposed to be quiet with you doing that?” I questioned. “You know how you make me feel when you touch me.”“What? When I touch you like this?” Zander whispered, reaching his hand under my sweatshirt and grabbing my breast.“Yes, I feel like I need to be noisy,” I moaned as he pinched my erect nipple.“Come, I’ll prove to you that you can’t hear any
Isabella’s POVWhen we got back to school, things pretty much slipped into a routine: school, tutoring, and statistics for the team for me. For Zander, it was school, tutoring, and football. At night, we’d either cuddle and watch a movie or head out to a study group with Suzie and Trina. A lot of the time, Niles and Devo would join us. It seems both Suzie and Trina were dating Niles at the same time. Hey, who am I to judge? I’m sleeping with the love of my life while being engaged to a future mafia Don.Saturday is the first away game that I have to travel with the team. I really don’t want it to be weird for Zander. So, I asked Coach to seat me up front with the staff, not back with the players, even though the players had requested me back there.Zander thought there had been a mistake with the seating, but I told him it was perfectly fine. That we could be apart for the five hours it took to get to Tuscaloosa by bus. He texted me most of the way there.Isabella: I’m starting to thi
