LOGINAlessia Morretti was a cop working diligently for Five years and trying to pin down a Deadly Mafia Lord who killed her parents through the Drug he manufactured. She made it her mission until she became obsessed, However Leonardo Ricci got impressed by her persistence and watched her every move and action till he became obsessed himself, he was done dancing around and watching her destroy his little hideouts. He's going to have her so he surrendered himself to the police instead, set her husband up and pinned the crime on him. Instead of being sentenced, he was bailed out and he blackmailed her with something extremely dangerous that would destroy her career for life.***Leo’s smirk widened as he continued to taunt me. "Imagine that. A dedicated little police officer like you, spread out in my backseat, moaning like a whore for the very man you’ve been trying to put behind bars." I felt sick. He leaned back, completely at ease. "I’m sure the department would love to see it. The media. Oh, and your family." "Shut up," I whispered. He didn’t. "Hell, maybe I’ll send it to your old rival in the force. The one who’s been dying to ruin your career. What was his name again? Oh, right. Detective Harris." I thought my body couldn’t handle more rage. I was wrong. I gritted my teeth, my whole body shaking as I hissed, "What the fuck do you want from me?" Leo’s expression turned smug. "Now we’re talking." He leaned forward, his voice dropping into something low, dangerous. "You’re going to sign a deal," he said. "You’re going to be my bride."
View MoreLeo's POVI left Victor bleeding and broken in that boardroom, surrounded by board members who suddenly couldn't apologize fast enough. They scrambled over each other with their pathetic pleas for mercy, their promises of loyalty, their desperate attempts to save their own asses.I didn't have time for that shit.My phone had buzzed mid-threat, and when I saw Pero's name flash across the screen, ice flooded my veins."Talk," I'd barked into the phone, already moving toward the exit."You need to get your mother out of that facility now." Pero's voice was tight with urgency. "Your father knows about it and I don't know how, but he knows she's alive. He's on his way there with a full team.""Fuck!" The word exploded out of me as I broke into a run. "How long do I have?""Twenty minutes or maybe less."I'd hung up and turned to Ronan, who was still standing over Victor's broken body with that cold, satisfied expression. "Stay here. Make sure none of these bastards leave until I get back.
Alessia's POVComing here was a mistake but I didn't care, I wasn't going to sit down and run mad out of curiosity without doing anything.The moment I pulled up to the facility which was a sleek, modern building disguised as a luxury resort on a private island, I knew I'd walked into something far more dangerous than I'd anticipated.Guards were everywhere and it wasn't the casual security you'd see at a hospital, but armed men with cold eyes and weapons that weren't even trying to be concealed. They moved with military precision, and the way they looked at me when I stepped out of my car made my skin crawl."Stop right there." The first guard blocked my path, hand already on his holster. "This is private property. Turn around and leave.""I'm Alessia Moretti," I said firmly, lifting my chin. "Leo's wife. I'm here to see my mother-in-law."His eyes narrowed. "Nice try, young lady. We don't know any Alessia.""What?" Frustration bubbled up hot and sharp. "Call Leo. He'll confirm—""We
Alessia's POVI'd been restless since Leo left, pacing the enormous house like a caged animal.He'd told me to stay put and not do anything reckless, if I really wanted to show how remorseful I was for my earlier stupidity, I should just... wait. Be good and obedient but It was driving me absolutely insane.I tried cooking something I rarely did, thinking maybe I could surprise him with a home-cooked meal when he returned. But my hands shook as I chopped vegetables, replaying the warehouse scene over and over. My father's blank eyes. The gun pressed to my temple. Leo's face when he'd burst through those doors, raw with fear and fury.The knife clattered to the cutting board, and I pressed my palms against the cool marble counter, trying to breathe."Alessia?"I looked up to find Maria watching me with kind, knowing eyes. The housekeeper had been with Leo for years, and had probably seen more of his life than anyone else still breathing."It's okay," she said gently, moving to take ove
Leo's POVVictor wouldn't stop groaning, and frankly, it was getting on my last fucking nerve.The sound is grated against my skull as he made that pathetic, whimpering noises that echoed through the boardroom like nails on a chalkboard. Blood pooled beneath his chair, spreading across the pristine white marble in crimson rivulets that looked almost artistic in their horror.The board members sat frozen, faces drained of color and hands trembling on the table. "What... what the hell do you want from me?" Victor gasped out between groans, clutching his bleeding leg with white-knuckled hands.I tilted my head, studying him like he was an insect pinned to a board. "There's no need to ask such stupid questions, Victor. You already know the answer.""I don't—""I want everything." My voice was silk over steel. "But more specifically, I want you to admit to your sins. Every single one. How you've been manufacturing drugs that kill people. How you've been lying to the authorities, framing m
Alessia's PovI stare at my phone, thumb hovering over Leo’s number. My heart is pounding, but not from fear—at least, not the kind he’s used to. I need him home.I need to see him, to talk to him, to feel that wild, unhinged energy that only he brings. I&rsq
Alessia’s POVI should have known he’d bring me back here.The moment I stepped through the front door, the scent of old wood and stronger memories slapped me harder than the hand that came next. The familiar creak of the floorboards was barely audible over the sharp cra
Alessia's PovIt was ok in my imagination, the crack I heard was from me as my head slammed onto the hard wood of the bed and I saw blood.That was the first thing I saw.Daniel grabbed me toward the edge, and I stumbled, feeling dazed. My head spun and he kept talking, barking something about loy
Alessia's POVFew hours ago….I knew I shouldn’t have left the damn house especially when Leo's words were still echoing in my head like a mantra. "Don't leave the house Alessia. They might use you against me. You’re my fucking weakness
