All Chapters of Mafia's Redemption: TERZO: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

TERZOThe mistrust and cautiousness were deep in her eyes. I knew she wouldn’t trust me anymore, but I was here for her, not just as her husband but as the same person who promised to protect her till my life ran out.I pulled out the engagement ring and the wedding band from the box. Before I could slide them to her finger, she grabbed them and sighed.I watched her put them on, and the four-carat marquise engagement ring that fit perfectly around her finger. She raised her hand and examined them. Her eyes lit up, admiring the ring. “I’ll give them back to you once the show is over.”“They’re yours. They’re meant to be yours. Keep them.”“I can’t. I don’t—”“You don’t want anything to do with me anymore. I get it, Dani. I lied to you, and you felt that I deceived you. Maybe I did, but I did what I did—”“For your family. You sacrificed everything for them. You’re the hero without the cape. I heard that a thousand times since I arrived here.”“No.” I winced. “I did it to protect you

DANI“Where are we going?” After the lies he cooked up to convince me about giving me a new identity, about my brother’s death, and his manipulations, I still stood up and came with him. “I know you don’t trust me, but my father will cut my head off if I ever hurt you. Keep that in your mind.” He literally dragged me out of his office and his house.“You’re kidding, right?” I stared at him in disbelief. He briefly looked at me after catching the key from a man in his forties. “Grazie, Alessio.”“Who’s he?” I looked at the luxury cars parked in the driveway in awe. “Wow.”“Alessio? Papa’s right hand. Italian cars.” He took me to the classic coupe parked at the corner and opened the door for me. “After you, my lady.”“Grazie.” I snorted as I got in. It smelled of expensive leather and musk. “I like it. Yours?”“Among others. One thing you don’t know about me is I’m a grease monkey.”“Oh.” I turned to him, impressed. “I really didn’t expect you to know about car engines.”“Because I’m

DANI“Terzo!” I gasped, jolted to sit, and sobbed. Did I sob in my sleep? “Hey, hey.” I didn’t realize I wasn’t alone. Celestina held my arms and put me back down. And I was back in bed. The same bed I slept in.“Where’s Terzo? Tell me he’s okay?” Hot tears formed in my eyes again and streamed down my face.“He’s fine.”“He’s—” I hiccuped. “He’s—” I threw myself at Celestina and hugged her tight. I sobbed in her arms for I didn’t know how long. She let me as she rubbed my back. I felt like I just found my big sister in her. I continued sobbing until I felt like I couldn’t breathe anymore.“Dani, don’t pass out again.” Did I pass out? “Drink water.”I pulled away and took the glass she offered. My hands were still shaky, and she helped me put the glass to my lips. I drank a little and breathed deeply.“Terzo is fine,” she said calmly.I met her gaze. “How could you be so calm when he almost died because of that stupid book? I—” I swallowed hard, realizing who Terzo was in my life. “I

TERZOI failed her. I failed everyone around me. She almost died because I was too distracted.Watching her at gunpoint was the scariest thing I’d ever experienced in my life. I couldn’t recover from it. The image was forever etched in my head, it sent a familiar surge of rage through me. It forever scarred my heart. I couldn’t forgive myself for letting that happen. I couldn’t let this one get away. Francesco would pay one way or another. Francesco was going to die, but I had to plan it thoroughly. I couldn’t get sloppy, not when I had so much at stake now. My whole body still trembled even though it happened hours ago. My vision blurred with tears as memories crashed over me, even right now, she was watching me fight, surrounded by my men to protect her.I fought to numb the pain. This time it didn’t work. The adrenaline faded. Every punch and kick felt nothing compared to the feeling I had as she sat across me with her hands and legs tied to a chair. For the first time, I felt

TERZODani trusted me. That was all that mattered. We may be caught with our desires and lust or vulnerability, but she knew what she was doing.“Then you’re mine. I own your dick now.” Her sense of possessiveness sent shivers through me, making my dick even harder. “Yes, beautiful.” My body and face still ached, but it vanishes as I pushed the broad head of my cock at her wet folds, welcoming me home into the endless pleasure of her warmth. My skin was on fire as she ran her hands on my back, scratching her nails, digging into my flesh. That was what I needed, to be reminded of what real pain was like and of what it felt like with Dani. It was both painful and felt good, fueling the pleasure that coursed through me. Her tight pussy fit like a glove as I sank into her to the hilt. She cried out as she felt the fullness. Then I pulled out and thrust it all for her to adjust, causing her to gasp, arching her back. It felt so fucking good. “Are you okay?” A raw and intense primal
