The Don's Contracted Husband CHAPTER SIXTY-TWO: Teasing Dony
Donato stared at the picture on his phone, reading Jesse's message again.“Since you don't want to come home, I might as well just touch myself and go to bed.”“Fucking brat,” he muttered smiling to himself. He had spent the day dealing with business, only for Jesse to send him a picture like that and expect him to keep sitting in his office as if nothing had happened.Jesse knew exactly what he was doing. Donato was sure of it. If Jesse wanted his attention that badly, he was going to get it.By the time Donato arrived at the mansion, it was late. He went straight to his bedroom, opened the door, and found Jesse sitting on the bed, reading a book. He was wearing his nightwear and a pair of glasses, completely different from the robe he'd worn in the picture.Donato walked slowly towards him, his gaze travelling over Jesse.He was certain Jesse had sent him a picture wearing a robe. So why was he sitting here in his nightwear now?Jesse looked up from his book. The moment he saw Don
The Don's Contracted Husband CHAPTER SIXTY-ONE: Lorenzo Problem
Donato entered the warehouse after his meeting with the Cascio.Lorenzo was seated on a chair a few feet away, his head wrapped in bandages. More bandages covered his arms and torso.Donato had expected Lorenzo to be in a bad shape after what Matteo had done to him, but the man sitting before him looked almost unrecognizable.“What did Matteo do to you?” He pulled out a chair and sat opposite him.“It seems Matteo has been rough with you.” He rested his arms on the chair. “I'd advise you to save us both some time and answer my questions. I have no interest in putting you through what you've already endured.”Lorenzo kept his gaze on the floor.“Let's start with the casino. Who else was involved aside you?”“No one.”Donato waited for him to continue, but Lorenzo offered nothing more.“No one?” He repeated. “You expect me to believe you were involved in all of this on your own?”Lorenzo nodded. “And the money? The information that went missing? You handled everything without help?”Lo
The Don's Contracted Husband CHAPTER SIXTY: Hate and Love
Ginevra had remained quiet throughout the exchange, but every word Donato spoke added to her frustration. She had expected Vittorio to defend her, perhaps even convince Donato to reconsider his actions. Instead, her father had ordered her to keep quiet in front of everyone.She hated being treated like a child, especially with the heads of the Del Sindacato watching her. She had only wanted to get Donato's attention, she never imagined things would go this far, and now Edoardo was dead because of it.Damn his soul. If only he had done his job well, she wouldn't have to seat here and face such humiliation. Even now, with the evidence laid out before them, she felt no pity. A part of her resented Jesse, no. Every part of her resented Jesse. If he hadn't come into Donato's life, perhaps things would have been different. Donato might have considered her instead of tying himself to a man who had no business being part of their world.She pressed her fingers against her skirt, fighting the
The Don's Contracted Husband CHAPTER FIFTY-NINE: The Grand Meeting
Jesse sat on the sofa in the sitting room, watching a movie with a glass of water in one hand and the remote in the other.Donato was dressed to leave when he came across him. He slowed his steps, his gaze lingering on Jesse for a moment before he approached the sofa.“Why didn't you sleep in my room last night?”“I preferred my old room,” Jesse replied, his eyes fixed on the television.Donato glanced at him, then at the empty space beside him. He had noticed Jesse's distance the previous night, and although he hadn't pushed him to talk, he knew the matter between them hadn't been settled.“I won't be back today. I have a few things to take care of.”Jesse turned to him, lowering his glass and got up. “You're not coming back?” He took a few steps to meet him. “Is this payback? Because I avoided you last night and you—”Donato placed a finger gently against his lips. “Shhh. It's nothing like that. I have some issues to deal with.”Jesse fell silent, though the uncertainty remained on
The Don's Contracted Husband CHAPTER FIFTY-EIGHT: What Do You Want
Jesse stared at Donato, momentarily taken aback by his question.“Are you serious?”Donato raised an eyebrow. “Do I look like I'm joking?”Jesse looked at him for a moment before turning back to the cup of coffee on the table. “You want to help me make castagnole. Why?”“Can't I?”Jesse scoffed. “Since when do you help anyone make anything? No. Sratch that. When did you enter the kitchen?”“There's a first time for everything.”“Yeah, right.” Jesse snorted.Donato smiled as he moved his chair much closer to Jesse's. “So, are you going to let me join you, or do I need to beg?”Jesse gave him a doubtful look before shifting slightly to make room for him.“Fine. But don't mess anything up.”“No promises.”Jesse pressed his lips together and shot Donato an angry look. “I'm serious, Donato.”“So am I.” He shrugged casually. Jesse asked the maids to arrange the ingredients needed to make the snack. Once they had set everything out, he went upstairs to change into something more comfortable
The Don's Contracted Husband CHAPTER FIFTY-SEVEN: A Little Sugar
I love you. Jesse nearly whispered the words against Donato's ear, but he held himself back.Pressuring Donato with those words now wouldn't do any good, not when he had just admitted to being scared of his own feelings.Jesse could relate. He had once felt confused and scared of his own feelings when he discovered that he was attracted to both men and women.“Come on.” He got up and stretched out his hand to Donato. “Let's go and sleep. We need to recover the energy we've used in quarrelling.”Donato chuckled and took his hand. Jesse led him to the bed, switched off the light, and settled beside him. Donato reached for him and curled him into his arms.Jesse's lips lifted.He might not have heard the words he wanted to hear tonight, but they were getting somewhere. At least Donato had admitted that he felt something. That was a step.A huge one.---The maids had gathered in the kitchen that morning, their usual chores temporarily forgotten as they discussed the previous night's eve
