Alessandro was swapped out with a new bodyguard named Gabriele, who was warned to keep his distance from Daphnée. Alessandro was to monitor her at the club, but other than that, the life she once had here in Italy was far worse.Daphnée closed the door as she stared at Gabriele, who was watching her ever move. SHe made her way to the kitchen after placing her bag down on the island and looked around for something to make.She had ready-made meals and popped one in the microwave, then made her way to the bathroom. Climbing in the shower, she stood there until the water turned cold, running the conversations she had with Mario and Alessandro.Tears started falling and her calm heart became chaotic. Her breathing became frantic.Daphnée crouched and hugged her knees, screaming at the top of her lungs as her body retraced the torture Dante had put her through.Gabriele heard the screaming from outside and opened the door with the code he got from Alessandro. He made his way to the bathroo
Daphnée’s eyes fluttered open.‘Where am I?’ She wondered as she looked at the unfamiliar ceiling. Lifting her hand to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead, she saw something and paused.There was an IV drip stuck in her right hand. She looked at it, then slowly sat up and looked around.On her left-hand side sat Dante, fast asleep on a chair, and at the door, Raffael stood. He smiled at her, and it was easy to see that she didn’t know what was going on.Sitting all the way back, she looked around and saw that she was in a hospital room. Looking at Raffael, she tried to speak, but the oxygen mask that she had just noticed hindered her.Pulling it down to her neck, she looked at Raffael and tried to speak, but her throat was burning.Raffael walked over to her and poured a glass of water. Handing it he said, “Take it easy, you’ve been poisoned.”She raised a brow as she looked at him, then drank the water. She could feel that the dryness was easing up, but it still hurt.“Wh, what do
Placing the gun down in her hand on the table in front of her, Daphnée sighed and took off the ear protection muffs. Alessandro pressed the button which brought the target paper forward. He looked at her and said, “You are getting good but it works differently on a moving target.”Daphnée nodded her head, “Hopefully I don’t have to use it.”She adjusted her pants feeling very uncomfortable. Over the course of the few months that she’s been level-headed, she’s lost a lot of weight and she wasn’t happy about it.He saw the frown on her face and asked, “What’s wrong?”Daphnée glanced at him then looked away and said, “Nothing. Are you going to show me how to hit a moving target?”He nodded his head, “Sure but not now. The boss wants to see you.”It’s been months since the poison incident and that was the last she saw and heard from him.Shaking her head, she mumbled, “Can’t he just send a message?”Alessandro scoffed, Daphnée seemed to not want to be involved with him.“He didn’t give m
“I, I didn’t know there was a Mrs. Bardi. I’m Igor Koval,” he said and kissed her hand.Daphnée smiled at him, then looked over at Daryna and sat down. “This is my girlfriend, Daryna,” Igor said as he sat down.Flattening the napkin over her legs, she looked at him, saying, “I know.”Dante sat down and the first thing Daphnée did was hold his hand. Dante looked at her hand, then at her, and asked, “Where were you?”She turned to him, smiling. “My nail appointment went over time.”Dante raised a brow. He looked down at her nails and saw that they were done nicely with butterflies, moons, and glitter.The new ring he got her with an enormous diamond on it looked good against her nails.Lifting her hand to his lips, he placed a kiss on it and rubbed the inside of her palm.Daphnée looked at Igor and asked, “Shall we eat?”After placing a creamy shrimp in her mouth, the men started talking again. Daphnée picked up that they were talking about working together.She glanced over at Daryna.
Dante woke up from a nap and felt slightly dizzy. The sound in his ears told him they were still in the jet on their way to Ukraine.Turning to his left, he saw Daphnée was asleep beside him and she had the oxygen mask on.Sitting up, he pulled the blanket off of himself and covered her with it. Looking behind them at Gabriele, he asked, “How long does she still have until the treatment is over?”Gabriele sat up and fixed his jacket, answering respectfully. “About two to three months left.”Dante nodded and faced forward, looking at Alessandro and Raffael, who were smirking.“What?” He asked.Alessandro shook his head and looked away.“Nothing, it just looks like you are starting to like her,” Raffael teased.Dante scoffed. He sat back and closed his eyes, saying, “It’s all in your imagination.&rdqu
Dante walked into the bedroom Igor arranged for them and saw that Daphnée was lying on the bed wearing a silk nightgown with a robe covering her loosely. The bedroom was warm, and there was no need for her to cover herself.She had beautiful legs. He admired them as they moved in the air. Each leg had a gold anklet.Daphnée felt a shiver and looked behind her. She took out the earphones and asked, “Did you say something?”He shook his head. “No. What are you busy with?”“Studying,” she answered, sitting up and switching the tab off. She placed it on the side table and turned back to him, asking, “Do you want to sleep?”He nodded his head. “I want to, but I don’t think I’m tired enough.”She looked at him as he sat down on the bed and thought of an idea. Getting up, she walked over to him and stood in front o
Handing Daphnée a glass of wine, she motioned for her to sit down on the couch with her and said, “The topic of discussion is Daryna. Have you met her yet?”The glass paused at her lips as she heard the name and wondered if she should lie or tell the truth.Taking a sip, she then looked at Bohdana and asked, “I have two answers for you, but what do I gain from answering your question?”Bohdana assessed her, then said as she gazed into Daphnée’s eyes. “I don’t believe that you are his wife. I’ve met Emilia more than once and I could tell that they were truly in love. What you are doing pretending to be his wife, I can’t think of a reason, but I can assure you that it’ll work in both of our favours.”Daphnée nodded her head saying, “You’re right, I’m not his wife. This is just one of his plans but…”
Daphnée and Bohdana returned and their men were laughing around the table as they ate breakfast.The men looked over, and Dante immediately frowned.“Where have you been?” Igor asked Bohdana, who went to him and kissed him good morning.Looking at him, she turned to Daphnée and said, “I took Daphnée window shopping. I wanted to get to know her since I wasn’t home yesterday.”Igor nodded his head and looked at Dante, who stood up. He took Daphnée’s hand in his and said, “If you’ll excuse us for a moment.”They reached the room, and Dante pushed her down onto the bed.He took off his jacket, saying, “Take your clothes off.”“Why?” Daphnée asked as she pulled the sleeves down.Dante’s pants dropped to the floor, and she saw the reason. Looking at him, she asked, “Didn’t you have enough last night?”He shook his head. Climbing on the bed, he pulled her clothes off, and she quickly covered herself, saying, “I didn’t wash.”Eyeing her breasts, he said, “You have my cum inside you. That shou
