All Chapters of Claimed by My Rival: Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

AMARAYou’d think a family dinner was meant for bonding and enjoying each other’s presence. Tell me why we were talking about how many bodies by brother had thrown over the Manhattan bridge?“The fucking snake,” Raphael scoffed. “He wouldn’t give even till death. No point in even sparing him. He’d have bitten his own tongue off if it meant escaping.”The second, Nikolai, hummed out a reply. “Ditto. Really wish you let me at him though.”I shoved a spoonful of mashed potatoes into my mouth, quietly watching their exchange. Family dinners weren’t frequent, but they were always lavish and opulent. My father liked them that way.He’d been quiet this whole time, simply listening in on what my brothers had to say. I turned to my mother who had also been eating in silence. She never spoke much during family dinners. Doubt she had the guts too. My father preferred her that way. Quiet and obedient.“In summary, you pushed him off before we could get any info?” Kaz, the first son, finally broke

DANTEThere weren’t a lot of things that could piss me off. One thing I prided myself on, was the amount of self-control I always had, regardless of the situation.Which was why I didn’t understand the reason for that irritation that wouldn’t crawling underneath my skin.“What do you mean you let him get away?” I growled into my phone.“Look, our men are already on his tail.

I could basically hear the smirk in his voice. In any case, I trusted Cassian to get the job done. He was as reliable as they came and loyal to a fault.My main focus now would be on getting to my jet. I had a couple of meetings that I’d held out for l

DANTEI’ve had a knack for being impulsive in the oddest moments. As a child, it didn’t matter if I had to jump into a pool just to get my lucky coin, or step onto the road in pursuit of my dog, ‘Lucky’. I’d leap before even giving it a thought.So, when Amara had dangled that dangerous proposal in front of me, it all felt too good to be true. A fake proposal? How the hell would that solve anything? I’d have Viktor on my ass and for sure, her brothers definitely wouldn’t sit by idle.But she was right about one thing. There was a lot to gain by agreeing to this relationship. For one, I could get all the info I need to ruin the Vitale family once and for all. Viktor was sure to have some dirt on him, something I could use against him.And Amara would lead me to it.She still seemed to be at a loss for words, eyes lingering on the ring on her finger.“Oh, my goodness.”“I can’t believe it.”I turned to the onlookers, who were now taking pictures and gushing at us. Amara finally snapped
