All Chapters of Craving my mother's Hot Fiancé : Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

Third Person POVThe heat hit Gavin the moment he stepped off the plane.Colombia heat was thick and heavy with the scent of tropical flowers and something darker underneath. Blood.This place had always smelled like blood to him.His grip tightened on the briefcase he carried. Knuckles white against the black leather. He hadn’t been here in twenty years.He had spent years creating distance between himself and this place.And Zeus had dragged him back in a matter of days. Using her.Using Melissa. His precious Achilles heel.Gavin’s jaw clenched as he descended the stairs. His feet touched Colombian soil for the first time in two decades.He felt Kane’s steady presence behind him. “Sir,” Kane said quietly. “Are you…”“I’m fine.”He wasn’t fine. He was terrified. Not for himself. He’d stopped being afraid for his own life years ago.But for Melissa.Sweet, stubborn, fierce Melissa who was somewhere in Zeus’s compound. Surrounded by monsters who saw her as nothing but a tool. A bargain

Third Person POV - KaneThe jump was at least fifteen feet high but Kane didn't hesitate. He ran across the rooftop, his feet were sure despite the clay tiles that shifted beneath his weight, and launched himself into the air.For a moment, he was suspended in nothing but darkness and the empty space below.Then his hands caught the edge of the next roof. His shoulders screamed with the impact. He pulled himself up smoothly, rolling onto the tiles and immediately moving into a crouch.Behind him, the gap between the buildings looked impossible. Anyone watching would have called it suicide.But Kane had been doing impossible things his entire life.He moved across the rooftop silently, his eyes scanning the compound below. For guards, checkpoints and Security cameras on rotating schedules.Zeus's estate was a fortress. Getting in was very difficult. Getting out with Gavin and Melissa would be damn near impossible. But that's what Kane did. Impossible things.He'd been mapping the compo

Third Person POVThe evening air in Colombia was thick with humidity and tension.Gavin walked through the corridors of Zeus's estate with Kane one step behind him. His face was a mask of calm, but his hands were clenched into fists at his sides.He'd been summoned. The Five Families had gathered.And Zeus had promised him Melissa.The grand hall loomed ahead. Massive doors stood open, revealing a space that looked more like a throne room than a dining hall.Inside, they were all waiting.Gavin stepped through the doors.The hall was enormous. Vaulted ceilings. Chandeliers that cost more than most people's houses. A long table that could seat fifty people comfortably. And at that table sat the heads of the Five Families.Giovanni Moretti. Young, handsome, impeccably dressed. He looked up as Gavin entered, his expression cold.Dmitri Volkov. Was older and harder. His eyes followed Gavin with open hostility.Chen Wei. Was calm watching everything with sharp intelligence.Rashid Al-Hashi

Melissa's POVPain woke me.Sharp. Throbbing. Radiating from my arm in waves that made my stomach turn.I tried to move and immediately regretted it.My right arm was immobilized. It felt heavy and terrible,really terrible. I forced my eyes open.Cast. My arm was in a cast from my wrist to above my elbow.The memories crashed back.Stephan's hands on my arm.The pressure building.The snap.My own screaming.I gasped, panic flooding through me. I tried to sit up but I couldn't.I looked down. Leather straps were across my chest, my waist, my legs. Holding me in a chair."No," I whispered. Pulled against them. "No, no, no...""Finally awake."I jerked my head toward the voice.Stephan stood in the doorway. Impeccable suit. Hair perfectly styled. Looking exactly like Gavin except for the cruelty in his eyes."Let me go," I said. My voice was hoarse. Raw from screaming."Can't do that, I'm afraid." He walked into the room. "You have a very important role to play this evening.""What are

Third Person POVThe ceremony was beautiful.Candlelight flickered across hundreds of faces. The Five Families sat in their designated sections, watching with interest as Gavin Cross bound himself to Sophia Moretti.The hall was silent except for the officiant’s voice droning on about unity and alliance and blood.No one noticed the figure moving through the shadows at the back of the hall.The person moved with purpose, walking between the pillars that lined the outer edges of the space. Heading toward the raised platform where Zeus sat in his throne-like chair.The old man wasn’t watching the ceremony. His eyes were half-closed, his breathing labored. The cancer was winning. Everyone could see it.The figure approached and stopped just behind Zeus’s chair. He leaned down to talk to him.“Zeus,” the voice whispered.The old man’s eyes opened. It was sharp despite the pain ravaging his body.“Give her back to me.” The person said calmly. “The wedding is done and you have gotten what y
