"I think we got off to a wrong start. How about we start over. Sì?"

Isabella wiped her eyes, trying not to fidget under his intense stare.

"I will keep you happy if you stay with me." Antonio went on, running his hand through her hair. "I don't know the kind of life you lived before the auction center, but it's going to be different here. I will treat you well."

"You left me hungry." Isabella pointed out.

"I did, and that was wrong." He agreed. "I promise to feed you. Whatever you want."

Isabella frowned, wondering why he was acting nice all of a sudden. This was the same man whose temper had placed her in a choke hold. The same man who effortlessly pulled a gun and killed someone.

"Why did you kill that man?" She asked, clearly out of curiosity.

Antonio's hand paused on her hair, and for a moment she thought he wouldn't answer her. But he did.

"There is a lot you need to know about my world, cara mia." He muttered. "It isn't a rosy place. To survive, you must kill."

    The moment her lips touched Mario's, he jolted. He grabbed her shoulders and pushed her back, surprise written all over his face. "What are you doing?" His voice sounded strained, like it was suddenly difficult for him to speak. Isabella herself was stunned by what she did. She jumped off the couch and moved away from him, holding her hand out. "I..." Her voice caught, tears brimming in her eyes. What had she done? "Isabella..." Mario tried to move towards her but she held her hand higher, stopping him. "Don't." She whispered, shaking her head. "Don't come any closer. I... I don't know what came over me... I shouldn't... I'm sorry..." Her voice broke as she burst into tears. She fell to her knees, her hands covering her face, her shoulders shaking as she sobbed. The sight of her crying tore at Mario's heart. He closed the space between them and pulled her against him, his hands going round her body, stroking her back. He didn't say a word, just held her close, dropping light k

    Antonio pushed Isabella behind him the moment he spotted Leonardo. The man he had been looking for. The man probably behind the threat phone calls, the accident and the bomb explosion. He glared at the necklace dangling from his fingers and felt fury twist his gut. Things just got more complicated. "Leonardo." He growled, keeping his eyes trained on him. "You finally decided to crawl out of the vile pit you've been hiding in."Leonardo laughed as he walked forward, a rich deep sound that didn't have a single humour in it. He stepped over Sebastian's lifeless body, blood coating his shoes. "Vegas mafia devil." He said, stopping a few meters away from Antonio. "How low you've sunk. There was a time your name made everyone cower for cover. But now..."He trailed off, raking his gaze over Antonio. "I'm not here for much talk." He continued, looking straight into Antonio's eyes. He lifted the necklace again, his fingers closing over the pentagram. "Hand her over to me. Now.""It was y

    Vincenzo was standing with a group of men in the drawing room, laughing loudly at a joke when he spotted Antonio coming towards him. He excused himself and met him halfway, a wide smile on his face. "Don Antonio, leaving so soon?" He asked, holding out his hand for a handshake."I played my part, Vince. I came, but I can't stay until the end." Antonio replied, clasping Vincenzo's hand in a firm handshake. "It's because of the girl, isn't it?" There was an odd smile on Vincenzo's face. "I saw how you walked out on everyone back there. It was because of her, wasn't it?"Antonio pulled back from him and thrust his hands into his pocket. "What I do, and how I do it, is not your bloody business, Vince." He muttered. "I'm just voicing out what everyone is afraid to say." Vincenzo went on. "People are talking, Antonio. And you don't expect them to stay silent, not with you being vegas mafia king." "What exactly are they saying?""It's less about you, and more about your woman." Vincenz

    Shantelle had her arms around Isabella and was about to kiss her. He strode up to her and snatched Isabella away. "What the fuck are you doing?" He snarled, glaring angrily at her. "Calm down, Tonito." Shantelle laughed, but her eyes were still on Isabella. "We were just having a little fun."Antonio looked down at Isabella who was struggling to focus. Drops of perspiration dotted her forehead and her eyes looked hazy. Apparently, when Shantelle told her the pill was an aphrodisiac, she immediately took out her phone and texted Antonio... [Something is wrong. I need you]"Antonio." She murmured, leaning heavily against him. "I don't feel good."Antonio's anger increased when he heard her. He turned back to Shantelle furiously. "What the fuck, Shantelle." He snapped. "What did you do to her?""I just wanted us to have a little fun." She laughed again. "She seemed curious, so I gave her a sugar pill."Antonio's face darkened. Sugar pill was another name for aphrodisiac. He wanted

    Shantelle pulled Isabella up the stairs, heading towards the balcony. She smiled and waved to other guests as she walked past them, while Isabella tried to keep up. There were a few people scattered around the balcony, holding glasses of champagne. They glanced at them for a moment before turning away. Shantelle stopped beside the railing and finally let go of Isabella's hand. "I'm sorry if I pulled you too fast." She began, smiling brightly. "I was trying to hide away from someone."Isabella smiled back and tried not to fidget under her deep stare. "It's alright." She murmured, then asked the question burning in her throat. "Why didn't you get a symbol of ownership? Then you wouldn't have to hide.""Because I can't be owned, amore." Shantelle replied, laughing softly. "I'm too wild, too spontaneous.""Oh." Isabella mumbled and looked away. A part of her didn't want Shantelle addressing her as 'amore'. She had gotten used to Antonio calling her that, and it sounded strange when Sh

    Mario was waiting at the parking lot beside a white limo. He had changed into formal wear and his hair was a riot of loose curls. When he spotted Antonio, he leaned away from the limo and opened the door. But when Isabella stepped into view, he froze. She visibly glowed, and not just because of the diamond studded gown she had on. Her pale skin glowed alluringly. He watched her hips sway with her movement. The sinful slit in the gown showcased her long slender thigh, and when he glanced at her neckline, his breath caught. He looked away abruptly and swallowed. He was in deep trouble, and he was sure because at that moment, he realized he had fallen completely for Isabella. She smiled when she saw him and waved, and he smiled back stiffly. "Hi Mario." She greeted. "Signòra." He nodded, keeping his eyes averted. Antonio didn't notice how frigid he looked. He helped Isabella inside and slid in after her. Cursing silently, Mario shut the door and hurried over to the driver's sid

    Isabella lay on the bed, her arms wrapped tightly around Antonio's torso. She clung to him, skin damp from the shower and the mind blowing sex they just had. They were back in the normal bedroom. Antonio's eyes were closed as he stroked the curve of her spine, savoring the feeling of her body pressed against his. The time on the wall clock was 4PM.Beside him, his phone lit up with numerous text messages which he ignored. This was one of the times when he didn't feel the pressure of his mafia duty bearing down on him. When the vibrations from the phone intensified, Isabella lifted her head and stared at him. "Aren't you going to check that?" She asked softly. He turned to look at her, amused at her surreal expression. She looked content, completely satisfied. Her hair lay in damp waves over her shoulders and he reached out and curled a strand around his finger. "Don't worry about it." He replied. "But it could be urgent, or important." Before he could reply, his phone rang. He

    "Get me out of here." She yelled breathlessly. Antonio chuckled and rolled off the bed. He flicked a lock and lifted the headboard, releasing her from the restraints. Isabella sat up and stretched, easing the crick on her spine. Her breasts shook with her movements, and when she opened her eyes, she found Antonio staring heatedly at her. "No." She shook her head, moving away from him. "No. You're not putting your hands on me again."As she tried to get off the bed, he grabbed her. She squealed, laughing as he pulled her back to the bed and covered her body with his. "I'm not done with you." He muttered, grinning devilishly. He grabbed her wrists and lifted them above her head, holding her captive with one of his. Then his other hand circled her breast. She stilled, her pupils dilating. When he circled her nipple with his thumb, she arched into him. "We can't go again." She gasped. "You're going to end me if you don't give me a break."Antonio chuckled, the low, sexy sound rumbli

    "Antonio.""Yes, amore.""Please let me cum." She begged. "Just this once. Please."He slapped her ass and pushed a finger into her soaked cunt, drawing out a throaty moan from her. "No." He replied finally, fingering her slowly. "I'm just getting started."He crooked his finger, massaging her inner walls sensually until she was dripping off his fingers. Her moans bounced off the room, echoing back to him as he fucked her with his fingers. Suddenly he felt her inner walls convulse and she cummed straight into his hand. A long strangled cry escaped her as she shuddered, thighs trembling and soaked with her juices. "Who said you could cum?" He asked harshly, working his fingers inside her until her orgasm ended. She was breathing hard, her spine slicked with sweat despite the cool air from the air conditioner. "I'm sorry." She whispered breathlessly. "I couldn't take it. It felt so good.""I'm going to punish you." He muttered and stepped out of the bed. He walked towards the corne
