AUDREY'S POVMy hands shake as I cover my mouth, trying to hold back the shivers running through my spine.“This is a joke right? That's something that happens only in movies and TV shows.” my voice shaking, as I glanced at him. The jerk was the half-standing, half-leaning on the wall, obviously in excruciating pain but he was defiant. He was serious.“How on earth do you expect me to call the hospital, screaming EMERGENCY! Have you gone bonkers?” I queried. “I don't even know how to use a gun.His eyes gleamed. “You just have to trust me. I know the plan is crazy but it will keep us alive.”“.....and when all of this is over, I'll be jobless and penniless. Is that your plan too?” This time I was beyond furious.Clutching his injured torso, he walked closer to me occupying my little airspace. “ I only think about your safety. Every other thing is secondary.” his expression, dark and jaw locked. He looked deathly angry. “Fine. Let's do it your way.” I grumbled, backing away from him

DANTE'S POVMy grip tightened round the baton. “You'll agree with me that I've been patient with you. Now you'll tell me who you've been working with.” I looked at my soldier, E. Betrayal wasn't something I took so well. His face, now unrecognizable.“You know my despise for traitors, yet you choose to become one.” I said leaning in. The cigar smoke I puffed bathed the air. “You thought crossing me was the best. Huh?” Bound to the metal chair, bruised and bloodied. His right eye darted round, his breathing strained. “Please Capo, I can explain—” Giving him a cold smile, “oh I'm sure you can explain E. Explaining, you will do. But first, what happened to Lealtà, to Omerta?”The dimly lit warehouse fell silent. “I want their names.” “I swear man. I don't know their names. We only communicated through books.” “What the fuck do you mean through books?” Slamming my fist on the table, the metal vibrated with force. "Books? You mean to tell me you were taking orders from children's s

AUDREY'S POVThere was something raw and unreadable about Dante's expression as I walked into the room.“How did you get here?” I say. “It's a dangerous move.” glancing towards the door again, agitated. “Whatever you have to say, couldn't wait till I get back home?“Last I checked, you were supposed to be home by now.” he said, twisting the ring on his finger as he stared at me—lazily. “You've been ghosting me for God knows how long. Now you show your face because I'm not supposed to be at work by this time. You're incorrigible.” He chuckled. “That's it piccolo fuoco.” “Dante, I'm busy.” I turn my back, ready to leave the room. I wouldn't risk getting caught in a room with a supposedly dead man.“Can we talk later?” Hopefully never.He grinned, pacing round the room. “ There is something you always forget. I do whatever I want. I get whatever I want.” “Now curb the attitude, and listen carefully.”“You think you're superior to everyone, yet you've got people chasing you even in

Dante’s POVThe sound wasn’t loud.It was subtle—too subtle for a normal ear. A little stumble on gravel. Light calculated movements. But I knew what it meant. Too certain the movement didn't belong to a stray.It belonged to someone trained.I pulled myself from Audrey’s warmth slowly. “What is it ?” She asked. Her voice almost trembling.“Someone’s outside, Get dressed. I'll be here if it's an unknown person.” She sighed.Her cheeks were still flushed. Her lips swollen from where I kissed her breathless just hours ago. And her body, naked with my cock still twitching inside her.“Cazzo!” I whispered to myself.It took me will to restrain myself from taking her again, knowing she'd be sore and we had a situation.Looking into her eyes, it told me everything I needed to know. “Audrey, just get dressed. Don't bother going to the door. I'll take care of it.” Then I turned back to the window.Whoever was out there was smart. No footsteps on the deck. No rattling of doors or shado

Dante's PovAudrey's presence stirred up a lot of things in me I didn't know existed. Clenching my fists, I forced myself to focus.Her eyes widened. “What?”“Don’t play stupid, Audrey. Carson Lane. You’ve met with Idiota three times.”Her lips parted, utterly stunned. “You had me followed?” she asked, jerking away. I stepped in closer. “I fucking protect you.” There’s a difference.” I bellowed. My body shook painfully. An urge to punish her was brewing.Her voice was rising now. “He’s an old friend. I didn’t tell him anything about you.”“Then why did you keep it a secret?”“Because I do not owe you any explanation!”I slammed my hand into the wall beside her head. “You don’t get to decide what you tell me. Not when you’re living under my roof. Not when your secrets endanger us. You.”Her jaw dropped. “I didn’t think it was a secret. We talked about my life at the hospital Not yours. Carson doesn't even know of your existence!” She yelled, exasperated.“Carson! Huh! “ I chuckle
