Alessia's POV "F*ck!"Leo growled as my leg hit him between his legs.He crouched over, grabbing his groins. "I swear, I'm going to kill you," He said, his voice lowering. I scoffed. "Not until I kill you first." He looked shocked. "Is that how you say thank you to the person who just saved your life?""Saved my life? More like you scared me half to death," I said, my hands folding beneath my chest.Then another crash came from inside the door, and then a growl that sent a chill down my spine.Leo's and my eyes shot in that direction."What the heck do you think that is?" I asked, my heart slamming against my chest. "Because I don't think that's coming from a human.""No. It isn't," He replied.He then grabbed my hand hard, pulling me towards the room."Ouch! Let go! Let me go!" I cried out, but it didn't look like he was ready to me.He dragged me towards my room, opened the door, and pushed me in.I straightened as he walked in, shutting the door behind me."You know I can have y

Alessia's POV I stared at the mirror doing nothing but watching as the ladies did my hair and makeup. I had to admit, this was kind of fun. It was exactly like taking care of a doll. From bathing her, to dressing her, styling her hair, and everything.You don't have to lift a finger. All you had to do was watch as someone else helped you get ready for life. I think I could get used to this princess life. But what I wasn't sure I could get used to was the way Damiano made me feel.Thinking about him made my heart pound... again!Like! What the heck was wrong with me?!The way his lips brushed my earlobe when he whispered into it made my heart skip a beat.Even the way he looked at me made me melt before his presence.And then they were his words, "Well, it's because you belong to me. All of you are mine. So do what you're told or else I'll punish you."Seriously? A normal human would be scared to death, but instead I was horny to life!I had to run away just so I could stop myself

Alessia’s POVThe second we hit the top of the stairs, I dropped Catarina’s hand like it was a hot frying pan and made a run for it. There wasn't any dramatic pause, no graceful exit—I just bolted. Straight into my room, the door slammed shut behind me so fast the frame rattled.I leaned against it, chest heaving like I had just outrun the police. My heart was pounding so hard I was half-convinced it was about to file for divorce and leave me behind.“Am I insane?” I whispered to the empty room because clearly I needed witnesses to my meltdown. “Did I just… yell at him? Him?”I slapped a hand over my mouth, eyes wide like maybe I could shove the memory back in. But nope—there it was, replaying in full HD: me, staring down Damiano Valentino like I had a death wish, giving a whole speech about respecting the elderly like some caffeinated superhero.I groaned, sliding down the door until I hit the floor in a pathetic heap. My face went straight into my hands.“Oh my God. Where the hell

Alessia’s POVThe silence in the car was suffocating.Leo drove with a calm, steady focus, hands firm on the wheel, eyes locked on the road like he could ignore the tension boiling behind him.Meanwhile, Damiano and I sat in the back seat—side by side, but not really. It felt like there was a whole ocean between us, even though our shoulders were just inches apart.I stared out the window, my fingers twisting in my lap.The scene from the living room kept replaying in my mind like some kind of cruel rerun. The way he had stood the moment he saw me. The way his eyes—usually unreadable—had flickered with something I couldn’t name. And then the way he just… walked out.No—fled. He fled.My chest tightened again, just like it had when he left.Was he that pissed at me? Did I annoy him so much that he couldn’t even stand to be in the same room with me anymore?Or… did he actually hate me?The thought twisted in my gut, sharp and sour.And what confused me even more was the fact that I car

Alessia's POV The truth of his words settled over me like a smoke cloud, choking the air from my lungs. I swallowed hard, the movement betraying me even as I tried to keep my chin high, my defiance steady. But I heard what he didn’t say—what lingered between every syllable. Ending me would’ve been effortless for him. A thought. A flick of his hand. His fingertip brushed the corner of my mouth, grazing my lower lip with a slowness that made my pulse hammer. It wasn’t tenderness—no, this was something else. A threat dressed as a caress. He pulled back only slightly, just enough to force me to meet his eyes.“The only reason you’re still alive…” He continued, his voice curled low, dark, the kind that seeped into your skin and stayed there. His head tilted, that cruel half-smile tugging at his lips like he knew a secret I didn’t. “…is because I find you—” His gaze dropped to my mouth, lingering there, before snapping back to my eyes, “—amusing.”The word cut through me, sharper than
