All Chapters of Crowned In Betrayal (The Santoro Family 1): Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

“Enzo.” Barbara's voice echoed through the house jolting me awake. I barely got an sleep on the plane. I couldn't. I knew that Lauren couldn't escape but I didn't want to risk it. I was obsessed about her. Seeing her after five months made me want to hold her, to touch her..“ Enzo, how dare you bring that tramp back into this house? I thought she was out of our lives for good.” Barbara said folding her arms in front of me. She was just as entitled as ever. “ Get her out of this house now. I am not joking” “ Lauren is here to stay. No one can throw her out of this house.” I said, my voice low and soft despite the fact that I was already losing my patience. “ I am pregnant with your baby, Enzo. The heir to the Santoro family. If you keep Lauren here, I will leave. I will leave and you will never hear from me or your son!” Barbara screamed. That was enough. Getting up from my chair, I held her gaze. “What have I said about you threatening me? You are the one that snuck into my bed

A moan escaped my lips as Enzo turned me around all of a sudden pinning me against the wall. All I had to do was to say no. I wanted to. I knew I should. However, I couldn't. Enzo's hand slid down my wet body parting my legs apart. My body reacted to him instantly craving his touch as he stepped close to me. Suddenly, Enzo went down on his knees making my breath hitch. His mouth found my sweet opening sucking and nibbling. I throw my head back, one of my hands clenched around his hair. Enzo didn't like cutting all of his hair and I was grateful for it. “ Enzo,” I gasp, moaning in pleasure as I feel myself reaching the climax. Clenching his hair tighter, I arch my hips towards him giving him all of me. Enzo's tongue licks me as if I am sweet candy. Just as I am about to come, Enzo suddenly stops standing up as if he didn't do anything. My eyes are still dazed and I can't help but stare at him in confusion. Was this his idea of revenge? Before I can open my mouth to speak, Enzo pull

ENZO“Where is Lauren?” I asked staring at Jake as I stood outside his house. One of my men had sent me pictures of Lauren arriving at Jake's house and I lost it. Not only did she wander out of the hospital but she also came to see her long time ex-crush. Jake stood in front of me telling me a bunch of rubbish about how I couldn't enter his house but I didn't care. Pushing past him, I walked into his house. The moment I opened the door, I stopped as I saw Lauren lying down peacefully on the sofa in the living room. Jake appeared behind me and I froze the moment I heard him clock his gun. “ Leave my house right now. Lauren came to see me.” Jake said making me turn to look back at him. “ You better have the balls to shoot because no one points a gun at me and gets to remain standing on his two feet. I don't care if your father is an associate of mine.” I warned. “ Are you going to keep on having her caged? Keep her in your house like she is some sort of property?” Jake’s voice rais

Barbara gasped calling my name. I rushed to her side immediately holding her before she could fall. Her hands went straight to her hips as she sobbed. Barbara's sobs hit me like a punch to the gut. I barely had time to process the blood pooling on the floor before she collapsed against me, her body trembling. Her face was pale, eyes wide with panic.“Enzo… help me…” Her voice cracked, raw with fear.I caught her before she could fall completely, my arms tight around her waist as I tried to steady her. But something wasn’t right. The way she was clutching her stomach, the way her breath came in short gasps, it wasn’t just from the shock.“Stay calm,” I muttered, my voice gruff, trying to ignore the pounding in my chest. My mind raced, but I couldn’t afford to lose control. Not now.Barbara’s hands shook violently as she gripped my arm. “I— I didn’t... I didn’t mean to…” She stammered through her sobs, her body shuddering in my arms. The words didn’t make sense. “It’s... the baby...”

ENZO“Ms. Hills is here to see you.” Stefano's voice made me open my eyes the moment he said the surname. I watched him leave feeling anxious. Quickly, I ran my hand through my hair before glancing at the mirror in my study. By the time he came back, I thought it will be Lauren but it wasn't. It was Taylor. My eyes narrowed as she walked into my study wearing a very elegant short flower patterned dress. She looked almost exactly like Lauren with the way her hair cascaded down her shoulders. “Mr. Santoro.” Taylor said bringing me out of my thoughts. “ I believe I have something to tell you.” “ What might that be?” I asked staring at her cold as I reached for the things on my table. I pretended to start arranging them and didn't offer her a seat. I thought Taylor would take the initiative to leave but she was beyond stubborn. “ I want what you were offering Lauren. Protection.” Taylor said making me stare at her. “ I was offering Lauren more than just protection. I was offering he
