ALMA

Hours passed, three days passed. But Lazzaro never returned. His absence insanified me as much as his presence did. The thought of him being with Tania was what even made me more crazy.

I hated him. I didn’t want him near me. But at the same time, a part of me craved even the smallest piece of him. Just a taste. God, I was losing my mind. I kept asking Mario where Lazzaro had gone, but he wouldn’t answer me. I asked the other men inside the manor for answers also, but it was like they had all sworn to secrecy. Truth be told, they had all sworn to secrecy, with their blood and their lives.

I was just here, not knowing my purpose here. I woke up every day, wishing it would be the day Lazzaro would return. I wanted to see my family. I wanted to ask my father to his face why he sold me off. I wanted to hold and hug my mother tightly. I had not been able to properly grieve my sister’s death. I needed closure with my family.

But there was so little that could be done with Lazzaro’s

  • The Devil's Inferno   37| Tune of Pleasure. 

    ALMA The kiss was hungry, and soaked with pent up sexual urges. He grabbed my thighs and lifted me into his strong arms. Without breaking from the kiss, he walked to the basin, and sat me on it.His lips went from my lips to my neck, trailing kisses down until he got to my cleavage. His hand went to my back and effortlessly unzipped me, pulling the dress off my shoulder. Immediately, he unhooked my bra and flung it somewhere. He leaned in and sucked my breast like his life depended on it. He unified them, making sure no one was left out.I clutched my mouth with my palm to stifle the loud moans escaping me. Fuck. The pleasure that came when one was sad and broken was the most intense.I couldn’t even remember anything anymore as jolts of pleasure ripped through my nerves.He quickly, without hesitation, slipped the dress down my legs and off my body, leaving me in only my panties. Even that, he grabbed and ripped it off.The beastly look in his eyes was as arousing as it was terrifyi

  • The Devil's Inferno   36| Disappointed.

    ALMA“What is this?” I flashed the document at him. Before he could reply, I started flipping through it, hands trembling and heart beating really fast. It was evidence of my father sex trafficking women over the years.Tears welled up in my eyes as I shook my head in disbelief. No. This couldn’t be true. My father might be a cruel, ruthless mafia boss, but he had always respected women. He couldn’t be a sex trafficker.Lazzaro was in front of me the next moment, trying to take the document from me, but I snatched my hands back.“Give that to me,” he said, extending his hand.“No.” I took a step backward, meeting his eyes through my teary ones. “Please tell me this is not true. Tell me this is not fabricated.”He only let out a heavy sigh, not saying anything in response.It was true.I swallowed hard against my throat and took a minute to gather myself before speaking again.“Why didn’t you tell me?” I said quietly.“Because I was trying to protect you!” he groaned before snatching

  • The Devil's Inferno   35| Revenge.

    LAZZAROI grabbed her chin between my fingers, my eyes raging with lust as I leaned in and jammed my lips against hers. I had expected resistance, but instead she pushed her body into mine, responding to my kiss with an equal amount of need.Fuck. Blood rushed to my dick, itching to be buried inside her. I grabbed her and lifted her to sit on top of me, our lips never leaving each other.I took my hands to her boobs and caressed them slowly while I enjoyed the low moans escaping her lips. My body was scalding hot and I might explode if I didn’t have her now.Just when I folded my hands around the hem of her dress to pull it off, a knock suddenly sounded on the door. I wanted to ignore it at first, but the knock only grew louder.“Fuck!” I groaned as I jumped off the bed and marched to the door in long strides. I would kill whoever was at the other end.I opened the door to see Anthony standing there, rubbing his palm behind his neck.“What do you want?” I growled.He peered into the

  • The Devil's Inferno   34| Torture and Promise.

    LAZZAROAnthony, one of my men who had been sent to monitor Tania’s every move, was the caller.“I followed her to a small café on the outskirts of town where she’s meeting with Agatha,” he informed me.Rage blasted through my chest at that information. Alma was indeed right about Tania’s involvement in the kidnappings. I would fucking kill her.“Get the both of them. Do not allow them to escape.” I groaned with fury.“On it, boss,” he said and ended the call.Agatha was one of the women that had conspired to kidnap Alma—specifically the one who drove her out of the premises. Like Clara, she was the daughter of the men who had died after a deal gone wrong. We had been searching for her ever since, but she had been so good at hiding. The same went for the third woman, Terasa, who was still nowhere to be found.Two hours later, Anthony had already returned with them, unconscious in his back seat. They were taken straight to the torture room, where they were tied to chairs, their backs

  • The Devil's Inferno   33| Per Tradition.

    ALMAThe wedding was rescheduled for a week later. I did my own makeup while one of the maids helped with my hair. Lazzaro didn’t want to risk bringing in another enemy.I was dressed in a simple white wedding dress, with a veil pouring over my head, and holding a flower bouquet. Lazzaro stood at the end of the altar, looking as handsome as ever. He wore a black tuxedo with a crisp white shirt, and polished black shoes. His predatory eyes were fixed on me, never taking them away.“Shall I?” Father’s voice suddenly sounded beside me, hooking his arm for me to take. His face was as cold as stone. “Just because I don’t like who you are getting married to doesn’t mean I’ll not walk you down the aisle.”I rolled my eyes. As if he wasn’t the one that gave me to him.As we walked down the aisle, my heart hammered against my chest, anxiety twisting my insides. I was about to be bound to this man. Forever. I wasn’t sure how to feel about it. While I was sure that he would always protect me, I

  • The Devil's Inferno   32| Misunderstood Intentions. 

    ALMATears began pouring down my face, grief grabbing me with its iron fist. I never thought I would be so sad about Lazzaro’s death. But here I was, barely able to breathe. Suddenly, the maid’s image disappeared from my vision, and my eyes snapped open.I used the back of my hand to wipe the tears rolling down my cheeks as I looked around. There was no maid here. It was just a dream. A terrible one.Without wasting a second, I jumped off the bed and ran out of the room. Mario had just stepped out of Lazzaro’s room, walking in the other direction.“Mario!” I quickly called, and he stopped in his tracks. He turned to look at me, raising a brow.“How is he?” I breathed.“He’s awake,” he simply said before continuing on his way.I pushed the door open and rushed inside, only pausing when he fixed his eyes on me. “Lazzaro...” I whispered as I slowly walked towards him. He looked really pale, with a bandage wrapped around his abdomen.His eyes never leaving mine, he used two fingers to g
