Chapter 11

Aaahhhh-Chooo!You know those days when life feels less like a journey and more like a poorly written comedy sketch? Claudine was living it. Her wedding day, no less.Aaa-choo! She’d always imagined a white dress, a loving groom, maybe a slightly awkward but sweet kiss. Instead, she was marrying the King of the New York Underworld, draped in silk and lace like a sacrificial lamb, and her nose, bless its rebellious little heart, was staging a full-scale protest.A-CHOO!Seriously? It was like her sinuses knew she was walking into a disaster zone and were trying to physically eject her. She smoothed her white silk-and-lace dress, wishing it felt less like a costume and more like, well, her.Her feet, buried in designer red-bottomed heels that fit with alarming perfection—she wasn’t sure if Hades had customized them, but they certainly felt like a luxurious prison—touched the polished floor of the grand cathedral. It stood just across the street from the Vancouver Hotel, a perfect locati

Claudine’s new red dress was a statement, alright. It was a killer. A glow of midnight red fabric, designed into a long V-neck and a daring V-back. Floral cuts hugged her hips, flowing into a high slit, with pearls and rhinestones.Her hair, still short beneath a different, ling wavy wig, was swept up in a dramatic half up-do style, creating a perfect frame for the scanty fringe that brushed her brow. She wanted this reception to scream: I’m here. I’m dangerous. And I’m not going anywhere. (Till he’s dead)As she and Hades made their entrance into the reception hall – a large space even grander than the hotel lobby, sparkling with more chandeliers and flower arrangements that must have cost a small country’s GDP – Hades’s eyes raked over her, a mixture of lust and barely contained anger swirling within them.“What the hell are you wearing,?” he muttered, his voice rough.Claudine just smiled, a sweet, brittle thing that didn’t reach her eyes. She wouldn’t let his snarky comments get t

Chapter 13

Kill Vito Carbone. His balls. His thumb. Feed them to dogs. Hades’s voice tormented her, cold and absolute, even as the ghost of his touch still burned her skin.She stood frozen, a beautiful, terrifying statue in a killer red dress. The fancy hall blurred. Every smile seemed like a sneer, every laugh, a cruel joke. No one knew. No one cared that the new Mrs. Vancouver had just been given a death sentence, dressed up as a wedding task.A bride, not a killer. The words screamed in her head, but Hades’s cold eyes told a different story. He knew she had it in her. He’d said it: “After all... you did it to me.” The raw memory of their first encounter, flashed.He hadn’t just given her a job; he’d dared her. And Claudine, damn her rebellious spirit, had a problem saying no to a dare. Especially one from Hades.Panic, cold and sharp, crawled up her spine. Vito Carbone. A monster. Trafficker. The image of the dead and alive bodies in his container made her stomach twist. He deserved to die.

Hades squeezed her ass and groaned again. “It’s a nice, big ass, isn’t it? Made for my hands.”He sounded like he was talking to himself. She couldn’t believe she agreed to this. She’d never had a guy talk to her like that. Never been with a possessive bastard before.“Just fuck me…” she breathed, hoping he’d stop talking and put his dick inside her. She couldn’t hear any more of his dirty talk.Hades chuckled and lifted her dress high. Her entire ass was exposed. She felt gross from a whole day. Sweaty. But even if he noticed, he didn’t care.“What are you, a virgin?” He grunted.“Maybe,” she giggled, a breathless sound. He looked at her, amused.“Oh please, Mia darling,” he murmured. “Just yesterday you were having a whole pregnancy stunt. Now stop talking and let me feel you.”She squeezed her thighs together in silent protest, expecting his hand or fingers between her legs. Instead, he dropped to his knees. She wriggled her ass nervously, trying to get away.Her body moved on its o

Chapter 15

The taste of Hades still clung to Claudine’s lips, a raw, primal reminder of his power. But as she pulled away, her mind was already shifting, moving from the heat of his touch to the cold reality of the task. Vito Carbone.She walked out of the ladies’ room, smoothing her dress, a calm mask fixed on her face as she scanned the thinning crowd. It was almost 10 PM.Most guests were gone, but a few lingered, drinks in hand. And there he was, Vito Carbone, leaning against a pillar, his eyes already on her.He was talking to other men, but his gaze kept sliding her way, slow and hungry. Claudine met his stare for a split second, then quickly looked away, a blush dusting her cheeks, as if caught. She did it again, a subtle invitation. Perfect.Just then, a waiter, burdened with a tray of empty glasses, passed by too close. Claudine, with a slight, calculated shift, bumped into him. The tray wobbled, glasses clinked, and she gasped, stumbling back, clutching her arm as if it were a painful

As she bent to pick up the scattered marbles, her eyes caught something on the armrest of a nearby couch.Vito’s trousers hung there, carelessly discarded. And tucked into one of the pockets, a small, transparent drug dispenser nylon had fallen out. Her heart skipped a beat. She picked it up, examined it, then a sickening realization hit her.The substance inside was hard drugs. She didn’t know which one – coke, heroin, it didn’t matter. And she didn’t care. Immediately, she poured all of her own substance into it, mixing it well.She stirred it with a shaking finger. Fuck. Please, let this kill him and not just knock him out. She dusted her hands carefully, making sure not to touch her face, not to drug herself.The bathroom door creaked open. Vito emerged, stark naked. Her eyes widened, trying not to show her disgust. He was just over 50, but his skin was loose, falling. His crooked teeth were yellow, and his bushy beard did little to hide the weakness of his jaw. He looked like a u

The sharp tang of bile burned the back of Claudine’s throat. She gagged again, still wanting to vomit, when a hand gathered her hair, pulling it back gently from her face.“Baby girl, it’s me,” Hades whispered, his voice dangerously close, almost a purr. “It’s me. You did good.”Claudine froze, then continued to dry heave into the champagne bucket. What the hell did he mean, ‘you did good’? Her stomach was empty, her body shaking, sweat plastering her dress to her skin. She’d never been so tense in her life.And it felt like there’d be no rest for her ever again. Hades rubbed her back, a strange, firm comfort, as she coughed out the last bits of saliva.She tried to wipe her mouth with the back of her hand, but he shook his head, stopping her.From his pocket, he produced a small, clean towel and, with an unnerving gentleness, wiped her face and mouth clean. His own face was twisted in a smirk, almost laughing.“You did good, Mia,” he said again, his eyes gleaming with something that

Chapter 18

Hades watched Claudine’s face, a mix of shock and exhaustion. The garden below glowed like it was Christmas, a carefully arranged tableau of lights and flowers.It was almost ridiculously romantic, a stark contrast to the death they’d just left. It was Hades’s own kind of show, if she ever thought she could predict him, she should think again.She turned back to face him, arms crossed, waiting for answers .“That,” Hades explained, “is for the paparazzi. Give them something to go crazy about.”Claudine tilted her neck a little, her brows raised, questioning. Her mind also questioning the sanity of the man she just married. Hades sighed, a calculated sound. “I know you haven’t eaten all day,” he told her, his voice softer now. “I wanted you to eat. Relax before we go home.”She stared at him, her mind reeling. Really? What the hell was wrong with this man? He just asked for a divorce a few minutes ago… and he already had this planned? She voiced her questions, her confusion clear.Had

Chapter 19

It was 11:25 PM, almost midnight, and the day, a whirlwind of terror and revelation, stretched behind them like an unending nightmare.When they finally arrived at the big house, it looked huge and quiet in the darkness, like a giant, rich box. They stepped inside through massive marble doors. The entrance hall was extremely quiet, save for the sound of the air conditioners and the large peacock themed clock by the wall, the mansion was as if everyone inside was already asleep, tired from the day’s grim events.Hades didn’t say anything to Claudine. He just disappeared, blending into the shadows of the mansion. “Artemis will show you to your room,” he called out, his voice echoing in the large space.Which room? The chamber of horrors? Claudine’s jaw tightened, but she bit back the question. Artemis, with her perpetually serene expression, her calm, steady face, led the way. They walked up a grand staircase, its railing shining under the dim lights. They walked until they reached a p

THE NEXT DAY~The morning light, soft and gentle, tried to sneak into Claudine’s eyes. She blinked, once, twice, waiting for the room to make sense.Slowly, the world came into focus. This was no ordinary bedroom. It was huge, stretching out like a vast, quiet palace. Her own room back in Los Angeles, which she’d always thought was big enough for a small concert, could probably fit three times over in here. She wasn’t usually a fan of huge spaces – who wanted to clean all that? – but here, wrapped deep in the warm duvet, she didn’t want to move a muscle.The air smelled wonderful. Clean, earthy, like rich soil after a summer rain. And like him. Like Hades. Like his beard, maybe? She had to stop herself from mentally swooning. Seriously, Claudine? Get a grip!Her eyes scanned everywhere. The room was mostly dark colors, making it feel cozy despite its size. She noticed a tall bookshelf, full of books, and a comfy-looking chair tucked in a corner – a study nook.Wow. He even reads. The
