Semua Bab BOUND TO LOVE MY ENEMY: Bab 81 - Bab 90

(VINCENZO'S POV) What's the worst that could happen? I led Marianna through the winding path behind our estate, her hand warm in mine as we walked deeper into the woods. The familiar clearing opened up before us, my sanctuary, the place I'd discovered years ago when the weight of my father's expectations had become too much to bear."This is where I come to hide," I told her, releasing her hand to gesture at the vast open space surrounded by towering pines. "Away from everyone and everything."She looked around with curious eyes, taking in the makeshift shooting range I'd set up years ago, the targets still hanging from the trees like silent sentinels."It helps me avoid regrets," I continued, surprised by how easily the confession slipped out. "When the anger gets too much, or the sadness, or any of those toxic emotions that come with this life, I come here. It subdues everything."“That sounds like something cold stone Vin will do” Marianna teased with a nod, understanding flicke

(VINCENZO'S POV) I watched through the hotel window as the police cars surrounded the warehouse district, their sirens cutting through the Florence evening like knives. Red and blue lights painted the ancient buildings in strobing colors as officers dragged out the surviving members of the rival families in handcuffs."Looks like your intel was solid," I said to Salvatore, who stood beside me with a satisfied smirk."Always is, boss. Those files your father kept were worth their weight in gold." He adjusted his tie, looking pleased with himself. "The police have enough evidence now to bury what's left of those families for decades."I nodded, remembering how I'd embellished the reports I'd handed over hours before. A few strategic lies mixed with the truth with some exaggerated into perfection.It didn't matter, by the time the dust settled, their reputations would be destroyed, their assets frozen, their power evaporated."Don't forget our agreement," Salvatore continued, his voice

(MARIANNA'S POV) I remained frozen, my entire body rigid as stone. The sound of Vin's footsteps approaching felt like a death march. When he appeared in the doorway, I looked up at him with eyes that burned from unshed tears."Tell me it's not true," I whispered, my voice barely audible. "Please, Vin. Tell me you were lying."He stood there, his mouth opening and closing without sound. The silence stretched between us like a chasm, and I watched his face crumble with the weight of truth he couldn't bear to speak.That's when I broke.The sob that tore from my throat was animalistic, raw. I pushed past him, stumbling toward the door with tunnel vision."Marianna, where are you going?" His voice sounded distant, muffled.I couldn't answer. I couldn't think. I just needed to get to him, needed to see for myself that this was a nightmare.His hands caught my arms, pulling me back from the doorway. "Stop. You can't…..""Let me go!" I twisted in his grip, my fists pounding against his che

(VINCENZO'S POV) I knew I'd fucked up royally. One wrong move and I'd lose Marianna forever. She lay unconscious on the ground, a gun pointed at her head, and every instinct I had screamed at me to charge forward. But that would get us both killed.I stepped out of the warehouse, my hands raised but still gripping my weapon."John Caspian," I called out, my voice carrying across the empty lot. "What do I owe this shocking visit."He flicked his tongue distastefully “Nothing is shocking in this” he argued “You have what is mine and I'm here to retrieve get it” “I have no clue what you are talking about” I played along, seeing the veins in his neck popping out"I want to see Elena," he shouted back. "I need to know she's alive."“How I'm I sure my wife is also in good hands” He clicked his gun “You don't want to push my buttons, Lombardo” My stomach dropped. I hoped to God this would work."Bring her out," I ordered my men behind me.They carried Elena's lifeless body and laid it o

(VINCENZO'S POV) I stood over her, my chest still rising and falling from that intense kiss. The sight of her sprawled beneath me, hair mussed and lips swollen, sent another wave of heat through my veins."Peel off every fiber of cloth," I commanded, my voice rougher than I intended.Her eyes widened, that innocent shock that always made my pulse quicken. "Vin, anyone could be looking……" her voice was barelypenetrating the tension in the air.I gave her a wicked smile to let her know I wouldn't mind if anyone did. The entire house have heard us fuck each other so it's nothing new if they see the action. “What do you think they’d do?” I asked as I reached out to tuck a strand of her hair behind her ear “Will they watch?” My finger brushed her bottom lips “Will they enjoy every bit of our body being on display for them to see?” I dipped my finger into her mouth to feel the warmth of her hot tongue stroking me “I wonder if they'll pleasure themselves as they watch you get completely l
