Jennifer's POVFor Some reason, I was heartbroken hearing all that. That was expected from someone who was part of the Mafia organization and didn't regard women. That was all he saw me as, I was the cheap whore who sold myself so cheap and he saw me naked.I ran my hand through my hair as the conversation that I overheard with Rodrigo echoed through my head. I had no clue that he thought so little of me. For that moment we were making out, I felt something different, I have never given myself to any man like that, yet, I had it all to him without blinking an eye. How can he do all that to me? Shawn was my boyfriend and I know that he is mad at me right now but I am going to get him back, I cannot do without him. He was the best man for me, how could I even be with the Same man who hurt my brother. Lowering my bag on the table, I headed toward the fridge and took out a bottle of wine. That was the only thing that could calm my nerves at least for a while. Opening the wine, I poured

Isabella's POVThe dinner party was fast approaching and everyone In the family got ready Grandmother can be very lenient but she is not the sort of woman who is to be underestimated by anyone.Standing in front of the mirror, I stood in front of the mirror admiring Myself. Truly, I am beautiful, nevertheless, before I can get a chance to admire myself completely, I was stopped by the presence Of Don Rodrigo as he entered the room, leaning against the wall, he gawked at me. The memory of last night flashed through my mind, Don Rodrigo was handsome and any other woman would fall for his looks but I would not, not when I have Maxwell, I was hoping to talk to Jennifer and tell her about him so that I can use her phone to reach him. "You look beautiful"That was a compliment yet I didn't bother saying a word to him as I stared at him through the mirror."That was a compliment" He whispered approaching me, every step he took cast a stranger feeling across my body. It wasn't just fear, a

Rodrigo's POVWhen I saw Marcello dragging Jennifer away from the hall, I wanted to chase after them. However, the beautiful woman coming down the stairs caught everyone's attention, her gaze not parting from me. It felt as though she was calling out to me to be her escort and I wanted that as out, For the first time in a long while, I felt my heart skip. Many have always assumed that I had no heart and, to be honest, I thought as much as well until I watched her dance. That day changed everything for me. "Isabella" I mumbled under my breath when my eyes fell on some men ogling her. That made my blood boil, her black gown was beautiful and sexy but it revealed a little too much. As if sensing that someone was looking at them, one of the men looked my way. When his eyes locked together with me, his eyes widened and he tapped on his other two idiot friends. They wanted her, they wanted to take her to bed and that hurts."Those morons" anger seeped through me and I just wanted to take

Marcello's POVWhen I heard that familiar voice behind us, my eyes widened but that couldn't stop me from throwing another punch at Juan Carlos, reminding him that I meant every word I had said that night. I am not ready to share anyone especially not Jennifer. She was almost breaking into tears as she looked at us. There were no emotions in my eyes as I liked Juan Carlos.However, as I looked at Jennifer, she was almost losing her mind. "I already told you that Jennifer is mine and I won't share her with anyone, especially not you""You are not good for her, she is mine!" He threw a blow at me attempting to throw another blow at me when I pulled at my gun and pointed it at him. Jennifer's eyes widened and she quickly jumped right inBetween us, the same time that Patricia ordered her men to hold us off. "Let me go" I barked at the man ready to blow his brains out if it wasn't for Jennifer who stood in the way. "What are you even doing?" Tears dropped on her cheeks. I could tell th

Isabella's POV"Why did you do this time around?""I called him a beast" I gulped down my drink. The intensity of the manner that he drew towards me would have frightened any other woman but for some reason which I couldn't fathom, I just wasn't frightened. We were in the middle of a party. His grandmother was present, and he wanted nothing more than to make a good impression. Rodrigo loved her and would not want her to think otherwise of him. That was the only weakness I have noticed so far. It meant that I could say a lot at this party and get away with it but then, after the party, I would have to pay for my sins, all of them. "Can I steal her for a moment?" That was all he said before wrapping his hands around my waist. I had a feeling he wanted to scold me for something I wasn't even sure about. However, his plans were cut short again as it was time for us to dance and so we had to make our way to the dance floor, leading the dance before every other person could join in.
