Tangled Secrets – Taming Mr. Vittori のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 61 - チャプター 70

ENZOIt had only been hours that she had been here, but the environment felt completely different. This place had always just been a place where I lived and where I slept – a pitstop if you wanted to consider it as such. Now, however, I could envision filling this place with proof of our love, leaving behind a lifetime of memories.I leaned against the wall, arms crossed over my chest. I smiled as I watched Violet clean up the kitchen. She was humming and dancing around as she worked. I loved getting to know her and learning all about her unique quirks. She didn’t have to do the kitchen, especially since she cooked, but she insisted on doing it.Who was I to ignore things that made her happy? This was something mundane, as she put it, which gave her a reprieve from all of the craziness lately.An important side note was that she was an amazing cook. I’d never tasted food as good as hers, and that was saying something because I’ve eaten plenty of food in my lifetime. I would say that it

LILACI looked at Mom and was completely stunned by what she’d done to my cousin.How could she treat her like that? There was a difference between pushing someone and being unnecessarily cruel. Never once had she done that to me while I was training, so why did she do it to her?Enzo had every right to feel the way that he did. On this, I certainly sided with him. I’d be taking over her training. There were ways to teach her emotional control that didn’t involve Mom’s method. No fucking matter what the stakes were, I wouldn’t do what she had done. It was beyond fucked up.“Why?” I asked her, seething at the memory of what Violet looked like as she destroyed herself.None of us were able to get through that barrier. I was thankful that my mate had called Enzo because only he’d been able to. He suffered to get through it, but he accomplished what we couldn’t. It was crazy how powerful that barrier was. Not even Mom’s magic and mine combined had done shit to it.My mate wrapped his arm a

ENZOThe drive was tense, each of us caught up in our own thoughts.Everyone who came with us was trained. Not everyone was an elite warrior, but every single person was a capable fighter. However, it was imperative that we did not get caught up in complacency because that would lead to failure. Focus was crucial to our success.We had put in as much training as possible. It would just have to be enough.Reika had been an amazing asset with training us in different techniques that could give us the upper hand against the hunters. As she pointed out, reactions during a fight were typically based on memory. They used moves that were familiar to them. So, us using moves that weren’t common would most likely give them pause and throw them off, giving us an advantage.There was no guarantee that all of us who entered that compound would walk back out of it at the end of this. That was weighing down upon me. I felt responsible for each person that was on our side.My mate was bearing the wei

ENZOWe were waiting in the shadows of the tree line for Sven’s confirmation that we could continue forward.There was a lot of nervous energy bouncing around inside of Violet right now. She was so close to her mother and sister but still so far. I knew that she would love to rush in with guns blazing but knew that it would ruin any chance of saving her family while also risking all of our safety.“The security feeds are now being looped, so you can proceed,” Sven said through the comms that we were all wearing.I looked down at Violet and asked if she was ready. A steadying breath was taken before her head nodded. I raised my hand, flicking my wrist to signal to everyone that it was time to move out.We were as silent as possible as we moved towards the compound. Surprisingly, the first guards had not sensed our approach. Niccolò and I raised our tranquilizer guns and shot them. They fell to the ground, knocked out cold.“They aren’t human…” Violet whispered, cautiously approaching th

VIOLETI was not certain if she had known about the pregnancy or not. I also didn’t know how she felt about it. Not everyone could accept giving birth to a baby that was not consensually conceived. It was a decision that only they could make.Her nostrils flared, attention snapping towards Joshua. Her face paled when she saw him. She ducked her head as shame rushed through her. Not fear but shame. I could imagine where her mind went. The mate who had been fated to her came upon her being raped. Then she was pregnant by someone else on top of that.“You can do it now if you’d like or you can wait until we get out of here, sir,” she told him softly, trying her best to control her voice.“My name is Joshua not sir. What are you talking about?” he asked her, clearly uncertain about what it was even if I had a feeling where this was going.“Rejecting me. It’s okay if you don’t want to wait.”His jaw clenched hard enough that I was afraid it would end up cracking. Panic. That was what he fel
