The Mafia Devil’s Wrong Bride 017
Annalissa HaleThe click of the door echoes loud.My wrist throbs where the cuff dug into me. The skin is filled with angry red marks and I cradle it to my chest.I can still feel Dante’s teeth on my neck. I drag my fingers over the sting there and shiver. The bruise will bloom by morning. Heat burns low in my stomach and it coils tighter every time I think of the way he pinned me down, of how easily my body betrayed me.The ghost of his hand is still on my breast. The feel of his voice when he said “Beg properly” keeps replaying in my mind until I want to scream.I wanted to run. But when he leaned over me, when his breath skimmed my skin, I didn’t pull away.God help me, I arched into him.I arched into the man who I knew had the power to end me if he finds out I’m not Clarissa. And my body responded to him.I lay down on my bed, my heart thumping loudly. I hate how my nerve endings are on fire right now. Dante was one step away from devouring me whole. I pinch myself so

Dante RomanoAnnalissa doesn’t notice me at first. She’s too busy tugging at the cuffs like she can Houdini her way out of it. One of her wrists is locked helplessly against my headboard. And fuck, this sight of her squirming on my bed makes my nerve endings prickle and my blood heat.I lean against the door frame, arms crossed. “If you’re going to play with my toys, Issa, you should know the rules first.”Her head snaps towards me, and her face pales immediately. Her mouth drops in horror then clamps shut.“Dante…”she manages to say. “It was a mistake. I was…curious.”“Curiosity,” I raise an eyebrow. “It kills more than cats, Issa.”Her throat bobs, her lips parts like she wants to speak but nothing comes out. She tugs at the cuff once more.I push off the wall and shut the door behind me. Her eyes track me wearily. I sit at the edge of the bed, not touching her yet. But close enough that she tenses.“Do you want to know what I use these for?” She shakes her head quickly.

Annalissa Hale“You can go now.” Dante orders Connor, waving him off before his gaze returns to the laptop on his lap.Connor, his consigliere, bows before stepping out of our bedroom. I’m surprised Dante decided to spare his life after the events that happened a few nights ago. I heard it was mostly because of his slip up.It's also Connor’s fault that I’ve been stuck taking care of Dante for the past few days. His injury isn’t severe but he somehow wants me to do every single thing for him including changing his bandage, serving his meals and all. He’s literally made me go full domestic house wife mode.He has barely left the house because Don Romano insisted on him recovering fully before going back to “trampling on their enemies”—his exact words. Surprisingly, he’d agreed. But mostly because he was able to successfully guilt trip me into taking care of him since it’s all my fault.Sometimes, it’s Connor’s. Sometimes it’s mine. He switches every now and then when it’s comfortab

Annalissa Hale The blood is warm against my cheek. Sticky and metallic.I don’t wipe it away. I can’t. My body refuses to move, like the stain has rooted me to the spot.Dante pressed it there, his blood, like I was no different than the gun he shoved into my hands tonight. An extension of him. A possession.I should be disgusted. I should be screaming. But all I can think is that I didn’t flinch. Not when he took a bullet for me. Not when he killed that man right in front of me. Not when I could hear the sound of gunshots as he punished his own men like they were insects beneath his shoe. Not even now, with his blood dripping down my jaw.And his gaze? His gaze was hard, he looked completely in control of himself even while bleeding out from his arm. But it was the expression on his face that sent a shiver down my spine. The expression of a man who probably first killed at age sixteen. One who will happily kill again.And that terrified me more than Dante Romano ever could.

Dante Romano The second the shot tears through the air, I already know it’s not a sniper. Or a professional gun man. Too sloppy. My left arm burns as blood soaks through my sleeve, but I don’t fucking care. My grip on Issa tightens just enough to make her whimper, then I shove her behind me.There’s movement. A shadow breaking from the trees.I run after him immediately. My legs eat the ground like fire until I slam into the bastard, taking us both to the dirt. His gun skitters across the grass. I slam my fist into his jaw once. Twice. Again. Bone cracks. He groans like a dying animal.Ethan.That fucking cockroach. How did he manage to escape the interrogation room? I bare my teeth. I should’ve gutted him then and there.A few of my men are now scattered around with their weapons drawn. They glance at me for instructions. I tell them to stand down with a small shake of my head. Ethan prowls on the ground.“Thought you could come for my wife?” My voice is dangerously low. “Sh

Annalissa Hale My palms press uselessly against Dante’s chest as I curl them into fists. He slips his tongue past my lips and pull me even closer, ignoring my protest. He finally breaks the kiss, leaving my panting, my breaths coming out in small puffs against his lips.“Now, they all understand you’re mine and nothing is ever going to change that.” his voice is low enough so that only me can hear. “But try not to squirm tonight.”A jolt of electricity runs through me. He kissed me just to show his family there was no turning back?He lets go of me, but not before he strokes my bare back with the pads of his fingertips. I shiver and he notices.He turns to his mother. “When does dinner start?”Charlotte—as she insisted on my calling her—doesn’t try to hide her frown. “In a few minutes.”Just before Dante walked in, Charlotte was telling me how much she thought her son could do “better” than me.God, I really woke up with a good feeling this morning when Conner first informed me R
