QUINNSomething stirred in my chest as his deep voice filled the space between us, rising over mine. Holy shit. He's not just hot. His voice is sexy as fuck too. Because why do I suddenly think I want to hear him sing all the time? Maybe this undercover nonsense might be a little fun, after all. But of course, it would not last more than a moment.Something dark fell over his features—The hum died in his throat…Then, he leaned forward and turned off the radio. “What did you do that for?” I blasted without wasting a second. “I was enjoying that music.”“If you're going to ride with me, you better stay quiet.” The car fell silent then, and the thoughts I’d been trying to keep at bay clawed their way into my cobwebbed mind. Was I taking yet another stupid risk? I still was not sure where Luciano was headed. We could be walking straight to danger and I'd be doing it willingly. Just…unintentionally too. Foolishly.I was tempted to ask again, but the tension between us was too heavy

QUINNAs the engine rumbled close, I kicked my feet to get him to put me down. He caught on fast and set me on my feet in the next second. I cleared my throat and straightened. Luciano looked alert beside me, reaching for the bags at his feet. “Do you think we should—”He lifted his arm and waved at the truck before I could get the question all the way out. A few good meters away from us, it was at full speed. My heart lurched because I feared they would just speed right past us, not caring for strangers who were lost on a highway in the middle of nowhere. Where the fuck were we at, again? God, I knew I should have asked questions. I was still struggling with analyzing the reality of our situation when Luciano suddenly stepped in the path of the oncoming vehicle, fingers casually hooked in his pockets, plastic bags dangling from them. “What are you doing?!” I screamed, heart lurching and toppling to my stomach. Was he really trying to get himself killed? Anyway, what do I care

LUCIANO“Reasons?”My gaze burned into hers. The defiant fire in her green eyes stoked something in me. My fingers moved up her arms and slid into her hair without thinking. She shuddered beneath my touch. Goosebumps immediately scattered across her skin. Her lips parted and she panted softly. I took pride in the fact that it took just a single caress of my fingers on her soft skin to get her worked up. Knowing her, she would've tried to run away. But…there was only so much space between us right now. So much heat and so much repressed hunger. I could see it in her eyes, in the way they gobbled me up without trying to do too much. In the way they burned into the depths of my soul, trying to find a similarity to what I was sure she felt. “Because there's so much more I want to do with you,” I murmured, my gaze dropping to her pebbled nipples. My cock stiffened in my pants. It reared its head like a hungry fucker. “Like what?” she returned in a soft voice, her gaze burning into my

LUCIANOFor the first time since I knew who she was, I was beginning to see that there was something really different about Lilith.As I watched her move from one luxury piece to another, I struggled to come to terms with the sudden change. With the uncanny similarities she bore to Quinn Parker. Because why would a Montclair heiress act like she's never known a single luxury piece all her life? Why would she shiver with excitement simply from feeling cashmere between her fingers?When she began to try on the clothes, the questions all faded into obscurity. The first dress she strutted out in was a sleeveless, teal, halter-neck that fit her curves like a second skin. My jaw ticked. My groin burned hot. Meanwhile, she seemed aloof to what she was doing to me. Because she leaned down and stopped a few inches away from my face. “This is suspicious. Why are you buying me clothes all of a sudden?”“If it makes you feel better, I would rather see you without clothes all day.” My lips cur

QUINNMy gaze remained fixed on the tray that had just been set down in front of me. It was filled with a crystal white powder substance. And this old man that had pressed a repulsive kiss to my inner wrist just asked to do the honors.I should not have opened my big mouth. I knew all too well what was expected from me. What was about to happen. This was a popular scene in books and movies. Putting the cartel master to a test by using his spouse.Still…I attempted to ask a brave question. “Uh… What is this?”Silence hung over the table that was lined with assorted Mexican dishes and fruits. A king’s meal, something I was not exactly used to. It was high time I began to take this life seriously. Because honestly, I could make something out of living in luxury. I just had to be intentional and get past the way I feel about Luciano.“Oh.” The old man lifted a grey and bushy brow. “Your husband must have informed you, yes?”I looked over at Luciano. He seemed very much as uneasy as I w

LUCIANO“Holy shit! This place is huge.”Lilith looked around the wide tennis court in awe, like she hadn't seen anything like it. Meanwhile…her father had about three in his name. Just what was up with her? I really should not have let her take the coke. “Oh thank you, goddess,” Dante sang, beaming at her glowing face. “You've got an eye for luxury.”She flashed him a too-wide, open-toothed grin. “Have I now?” “Absolutely!” Laughing heartily, they both tumbled further into the court. They were both over the moon. Dante did not hesitate to hit a line before the game they were about to play. Just what was she thinking, offering to duel him? My only thought now was to leave with her, as I’ve seen how much of a bad idea it was to come all the way here for a business deal.There were so many others I could deal with. But for some reason, I'd come all this way to do business with a shady man. Like it was extraordinarily orchestrated, and I was engineered into making a foolish decisio

LUCIANOBig men standing above 6ft glared at my wife and I as they circled us in Dante Tallavera's tennis court, cats ready to pounce on mice. But what they did not know was that in fact…I was far from a mouse. I was the threat they never saw coming. My fingers involuntarily tightened around Lilith's soft and slender ones cocooned inside. I looked over at her. She was smiling up at me with rosy cheeks and glazed-over eyes. Fuck. If she kept looking at me like that, I wouldn't be able to stop myself. I feared I would jump right over and snatch her up, rip her dress right here—after I'd gouged out everyone else's eyes—and drop hot, wet kisses all over her face and neck.It was what I craved at the moment…and the thought stiffened my cock in my pants.I cleared my throat and steeled my mind to act right and stop thinking dirty thoughts. “Are you ready?” She wiggled her brows at me. “For?” I lifted my gaze and swept it around the faces surrounding us. The men had guns pointed at us,

QUINNThe haze disappeared as soon as my skull cracked forcefully against a hard surface. A wail of agony tumbled past my lips as sharp, blinding pain shot through my head and spread down to my neck and my back. Panting hard, I looked around to find myself trapped in an askew position. Caught in the halved trunk of a bow-shaped shrub. Hanging upside down. My breathing was uneven, loud and raspy. I retched up even more of what was leftover from my first glaring fuck up. Tears rolled down my eyes alongside the other slimy liquid. Down the sloppy forest where I would have slipped and died if my dress hadn't caught onto this trunk.“God,” I murmured, hating the bitter taste in my mouth and itching to rinse it out. “I should not have gotten into the trunk of his car in the first place. I cannot believe this is the moment where I accept that he's right and I'm wrong. Fuck.”On and on I rambled. I could only remember bits and pieces of the last few hours. And they were not pleasant memor

QUINNI had barely registered the warning when his body fell over mine with an overwhelming force and sent us both tumbling to the ground with a loud thud. The sound of shattering glass filled the air in the background, somehow muffled by Luciano’s large arms wrapped around me. The sporadic shooting continued, but I felt safe, far away from it. Because Luciano was next to me. Holding me close like I was the most precious thing to him in the world. If only he knew who I really was inside this body. Would he still protect me like this?“Are you okay?” His soothing whisper reverberated through my body, reminding me yet again of that night I fell for him on that bridge. He was a total stranger back then, Quinn. That was before you knew the evil he was capable of! Glass fell around us. In a thousand splinters, I could tell. But I did not feel a single prickle from a cut or the force of being hit, and I knew it was thanks to the fact that I was thoroughly covered with Luciano’s large b

QUINNYou said you would protect me. It was the first thought in my head as my skull cracked hard against the marble floor. Pain instantly flooded my vision, colliding with the dread that filled me.Luciano said he would protect me. And here I was, about to lose my life again because I made the stupid, impulsive decision to protect him instead. He’s a supernatural being, for God’s sake. Why did I not just let him handle this? And where the hell is everyone? Oh. I forgot Luciano rented out the entire diner for the period we were supposed to be here. So of course. There was no one to come to our aid right now. But what about local cops? Some security guards or something?The chaos going on in my head was violently ripped off when I felt hands on my neck. Big, fat hands that wrapped around my throat like a cobra and snapped the air from my lungs. “You stupid bitch!” The big man’s saliva flew in my face. “Think you can take me on, huh?!”I gagged and gurgled, my arms flailing as I t
