What The Don Wants Dare to die
Isla~A small smile stretched my lips as I looked down at the view below the balcony. It was easily over five storeys high and a fall from here would definitely be lethal. I could die but then again, was I really living?Climbing onto the very edge of the balcony, I stretched out my arm to enjoy the feeling of the rushing wind in my hair. I relished the momentary feeling of freedom.For the first time in a long while, I felt ... unstoppable.The bedroom door was suddenly swung open with a great force, almost falling off its hinges. Dante stormed in, his grey eyes blazing with an unholy rage. They instantly locked onto me and my grin widened as I watched him come to a slow halt.He definitely wasn't expecting this."Isla..." He began to say, taking a single step forward."You get down from there, right now." A dry chuckle escaped me. He was trying so hard to hide his panic. I could see it in the way his shoulders tensed, how his voice strained to stay in control.It would be way too

Isla~"Put me down, you devil!" I screamed, pounding against his back as he carried me up the stairs like I weighed nothing.It's been over three days since my attempted suicide and I've been busy getting myself into all manner of trouble ever since.Setting his office on fire, crashing one of his favorite cars into a wall and terrorizing the maids in the house, I did everything I could think of to annoy Dante, to make him snap.I had grossly underestimated his tolerance for my antics. Because no matter how hard I tried, Dante never got nearly as pissed off as I wanted him to be.Except today.I had slipped into his kennel and "accidentally" let his dogs loose in the yard... and boy, did he finally lose it!He tried so hard to keep a neutral expression, treating me to silence as he had me over his shoulder.He was clearly fed up at this point. Good.I didn't plan to make it any easier for him."Put me down!" I continued with my yelling and trashing as we approached the master bedroom

Isla~"You must be Boss Dante's wife." I looked up at the blond woman with brown eyes, who was standing at a height of about 6 foot. From her accent, I could tell she was Russian.I narrowed my eyes at her outstretched hands, refusing to shake her."You must be the new babysitter." I retorted, leaning back on my seat and folding my arms."I don't like you already." The woman rolled her eyes at her comment like she was already used to it, plopping herself down on a sofa and making herself comfortable."I'm not surprised." She smirked, turning her eyes to the TV show I had been watching."He did say you have an attitude problem." My eyebrows furrowed and I clenched my fists at her words. I couldn't still believe that this was really happening, that I was being assigned to a fucking babysitter."I'm here to fix that." "I'm not a fucking child!" I seethed, jumping up from my seat as if it would prove my point.She arched a brow at me."Looks like I'm going to need a swear jar." Furio

Dante~Last time I was here, I was certain there were more people around. And the atmosphere definitely wasn't reeking of depression and abandonment.Looks like a lot had changed.Staring right at Santos DeLuca now, it was hard to believe that he was the same man that made me tremble in fear.Feeble and grey, seated on a wheelchair, there was no longer anything particularly threatening about him. Still, I wasn't done with my revenge.I still wanted more. I wanted him to feel the pain of everything he took from me.Making myself comfortable on a sofa, I casually crossed one leg over the other, keeping my eyes on his tensed form.He was afraid of me now. Good for him."Won't you stand up to greet your guest, Mr DeLuca?" I mocked, looking down at his legs.His jaws clenched but he didn't dare to say anything in response. He could only look back at me with wide, brown eyes, much like Isla's. The way his hands trembled, I wondered if it was still just fear or anger. Either way, I wasn't t

Isla~"How dare you, Dante?" I seethed at the mafia don seated across from me, a cigar between his lips.Earlier, I got information on where he had been. It made me furious."We had a fucking agreement!" I yelled, feeling like I was about to burst from all the anger I felt.Dante however, didn't seem to be even slightly fazed by my outburst. His eyes had a bored expression as he listened to me rant continuously."You forcefully took me as your wife." I continued."You've killed my brother.""The least you can do is leave my parents alone!"Silence.The more he just sat there without a single care in the world, the angrier I got. We were talking about my parents for goodness's sake!Slamming my palm hard against the table, I abruptly pushed myself up on my feet. I was fed up with his bullshit."I'm talking to you, asshole!" I hissed.A pair of strong hands was suddenly clamped on my shoulders, pressing down and forcing me back into my seat.Katya."Ssshhh... little bird." She whispered

Isla~"I'm only a mere result of your father's treachery." "You think of me a monster, when you've..."Dante's words kept ringing in my head for some reason and no matter what, I couldn't seem to get them out.I had confronted him later that night in hopes of getting some answers but he just dismissed me, saying something along the lines of:"Look closely, the truth might just reveal itself." I didn't know what that meant, but I'm sure as hell about to find out.This morning, I watched him get dressed for his usual "business" meetings and an idea struck me.I didn't really know anything of what he actually does in these meetings and I was tired of remaining on the sidelines, hidden away from everything that was going on around me.Perhaps if I follow him, I might just get the answers I'm looking for. I might be able to see through his eyes for once.Maybe I might finally start to understand the reason for his thirst for vengeance and power.Or I get to be proven right about him bein

Isla~When I decided to go with Dante, I didn't imagine we would be taking a one hour flight on his private jet from Las Vegas to Los Angeles. I mean, he did warn me that we would be spending a couple days out here, so I really shouldn't be this surprised.I had been on many private flights before but none was quite like this. The kind of attention I was given by the staff onboard whenever they realized I was "Mrs Moretti" was overwhelming. It was almost like it was a pleasure for them to serve me but not because of me. They were obviously doing it to get on Dante's good side and for some reason, I didn't really mind.I just sat back, relaxing as I was being treated to the best flight experience, whilst being completely ignored by Dante.I listened to a couple of his discussions over the phone, straining my ears really hard to listen for anything that might pique my interest. I however gave up when he suddenly switched to Italian, deciding to sleep through the rest of the journey.

Dante~"Boss..." Fernando's voice rang from the other end of the phone line."I don't feel very comfortable with this. A lot could go wrong." He whined."With an occupation like ours, a lot does go wrong, Fernando." I replied, earning a sigh from him."There's no changing your mind, is there?""No.""Not when I'm this close to finding her." I said, a wave a determination washing over me.I feared that an involvement from my men might ruin my chance and I wasn't about to risk that."This is suicide, Boss." Fernando continued to lament as I prepared to hang up the call.The sudden sound of approaching footsteps from behind, alerted me of Isla's presence and I slowly turned around to meet her brown eyed gaze."I'll be in touch." I whispered into the phone, still not taking my eyes off her.Isla's eyes seemed to be burning with curiosity, a sign that she had indeed heard the conversation between me and Fernando.I rolled my eyes at that, watching her stand a few paces away from me.There

What The Don Wants Charity
Isla~"Are you sure about this?" Katya asked, her voice a little panicked.I smiled, looking around the beautifully decorated hall and the guests who were slowly trooping in.The usual gloomy atmosphere of the Moretti mansion was now brightened up with the sound of light-hearted laughter and music.I had never been more sure of anything."Mr and Mrs Sanders!" I greeted the elderly couple with a big smile and their faces lit up instantly."A beautiful event you have going on here, honey." Mrs Sanders remarked, reaching out to hold my hands.I felt my heart warm at her compliments, knowing I put a lot into this occasion.Dante was going to be away for a while and even if he was around, he'd probably still be busy ignoring me. So I had to get busy myself too.I sent invites to all the wealthiest, most influential people in the city. I wanted to bring them all together for the official opening of my charity foundation.A foundation to build back everything my father destroyed, give back e
What The Don Wants Morning after
[Just a little reminder that although Kayla is referred to as 'young', she's not exactly underage. she is 19, which still makes her the youngest of all the characters in this book, hence Isla's protective nature.]Isla~The fresh scent of flowers and dew, coupled with the continuous chirping of morning birds made my eyelids flutter open.I was immediately greeted the rays of sun filtering through the windows and illuminating the whole room. A small groan left my lips as I shot up from the bed, finding Dante's side empty.Of course I wouldn't expect him to be here to kiss me good morning now, right? I was way smarter than that.I lazily rolled out of bed to walk to the bathroom and that was when I realized.I was naked.Fully naked.Memories of what happened last night began rushing into my head like it had all been a dream. I felt my face slowly heating up as the realization set in. The things I let him do to me, the way he touched me.I could still feel how sore I was, despite th
What The Don Wants War
Dante~She was asleep.Barely.I could tell by the way her body trembled slightly, her breathing shallow, like she didn't trust herself to relax...even in my bed.Our bed.Her back was turned to me, the sheets pulled up to her shoulder. Hiding herself. Probably trying to piece together what had just happened.But I wasn't confused.No. I was clear.Crystal fucking clear.She was mine.No matter how many times she ran, no matter who she ran to, I would always bring her back.Because Isla wasn’t just some bargaining chip. She wasn’t just a wife I married for revenge or leverage.At least, not anymore.She was a fucking addiction.And it pissed me off as much as it excited me.I never imagined that ravaging her would feel that good.My jaw clenched as I sat up, dragging a hand through my hair. Every muscle in my body ached from the way I took her. Hard, unrelenting, punishing. She didn’t fight me. Not once.But that didn't mean she wanted it.She said she'd do anything.I gave her a choi
What The Don Wants Anything
Isla~"Please...please, stop!" I screamed, my throat raw, the words barely cutting through the chaos around me.Jake's blood was everywhere. On the pavement. On their knuckles. On his clothes. He groaned and writhed under the brutal force of Dante's men, who continuously pummelled him for trying to help us escape their Boss.They dragged Kayla away from me, her terrified eyes locked on mine as she struggled against their grip. Still silent. Still voiceless. But her scream was in her eyes.And mine were wet with tears."Dante, please!" I cried out again, stumbling toward him, falling to my knees when I couldn't keep up with the weight in my chest. "I'll do anything! Just stop them!"He didn’t flinch.His black eyes stayed on Jake’s broken form, hands buried in his pockets as if this was all beneath him. As if it didn't matter.But it did.To me.I crawled forward, grabbing the hem of his coat, desperate now."Please, I'm begging you! Don't kill him!""I'll do anything you ask of me, I
What The Don Wants Running
Isla~Today marked the end of the three days ultimatum given to me by Dante.And I was long ready.I knew what it meant for Dante to get rid of things he deemed a problem, and I didn't stick around to let him do it.While he was out last night, I took Kayla with me, grabbing a few of our stuff and driving into the night in one of Dante's Ferrari.Kayla seemed a little startled by our sudden movement but remained quiet as always.Together, we booked a suite at the far side of the city. We would complete our journey the following day, far away from Dante and his hatred.I didn't mind leaving everything behind for Kayla.She was my responsibility now.Afterall, it was my father who did this to her. He sold her into this life of mystery.Another one of his sins I had to pay for.I would never be able to live with myself if Dante had her sent away."We'll be safe here for the night." I said to her as her eyes wandered around our suite.I could feel her discomfort and unease, but she still
What The Don Wants Broken things
Dante~The study still reeked of scotch.The silence that followed Isla's exit lingered like smoke, curling through the corners of the room, suffocating. I stood there, staring at the glass in my hand, watching the liquid swirl slowly before I tossed it back without a second thought.It burned less than it should have. Probably because I've had way too much of it.I leaned forward, bracing myself on the edge of the desk as the weight of our argument replayed in my head. Her words echoed louder now, stripped of the fire we both threw at each other."If she goes, then I'm going with her."I clenched my jaw.Damn her.Damn that stubborn fire in her eyes. The one that always makes her stand her ground, even when she is afraid. Even when she should be running in the opposite direction.She wasn't just defending that girl. She was defying me.And yet…A part of me knew I'd been too harsh. The words had come out sharper than I intended. The pain still clawed at me from the inside, a constant
What The Don Wants Three days
Isla~Dante had stayed back in Los Angeles for whatever reason.Although I suspected it had something to do with grieving his late sister. He had clearly ordered that we head back to Vegas and avoid waiting for him.I took in a deep breath to calm my racing heart, before opening the door to his study. Apparently, that's where he had been since he came back.And he sent for me.The smell of strong liquor greeted me almost immediately and I had the urge to scrunch up my nose.Dante had his back to me but I could still see how heavy the grief rested on his shoulders. His hair was a disheveled mess as he had undoubtedly ran his fingers through it over and over again.His posture was hunched over as he looked out of his window at the scenery down below.I took a step forward, instinctively trying to be as quiet as I could be. It felt like a bad idea to startle him in this state.He however seemed to be aware of my presence already.He, however, seemed to be aware of my presence already.
What The Don Wants Vulnerable
Isla~"You know..." Katya suddenly said, breaking the long silence."That's was really brave."I raised my eyebrow, unsure if this was a compliment or one of her usual taunting remarks."Standing up to your parents like that, it takes a different kind of strength."A smile gradually made its way to my face on hearing the sincerity in her voice. "Take it from me. One daddy's girl to another." She winked, earning an eyeroll from me."I'm not a daddy's girl" I muttered and in truth, I wasn't. I never got the chance to be one.Katya leaned close to whisper into my ear."Aye! Not anymore, little bird.""Ugh! Stop it already with that name." I groaned, shoving her playfully.Soon enough, we were pulling up into the driveway at the mansion.I quickly got out of the car, eager to go in and get rid of the dress I had on.However, I was greeted by a commotion almost immediately.Kayla.The housemaids were gathered outside her door and from the look of things, they were determined to force he
What The Don Wants Funerals
Isla~I stepped out of the vehicle, dressed in all black and instantly attracting attention from onlookers.Today was Matteo's funeral and I came back from Los Angeles just in time for it. I wasn't surprised by the number of people in attendance as Matteo had always been known and regarded the heir of the entire DeLuca's fortune.Father had introduced him to a number of his business partners in hopes that my elder brother would take over from him someday."Sure you want to do this." Katya murmured from behind me, eyeing the seemingly hostile crowd around me.I recognized most of them to be members of our extended family and even old friends. However they all looked at me now like I was some enemy, some traitor."I have to do this." I said, determination coursing through me.My father's lies and secrets got my brother killed and it was time I stood up to him. It was time I let him know that I will no longer be a subject to his manipulations.Katya looked me right in my eyes, nodding i
