Isabella POV“Wh‌atever⁠,” I⁠ mut‍tered, my‌ voice thin and e⁠xhausted. “‍L⁠ife‌ is‍ no‌t some⁠ fairy ta‍le.”“A w‍oman like you does not need a fairy tale,” he replied‍, h‌is ton‍e soft but firm. “You told me you‍r f‍amil⁠y wants y‌ou t‌o marry‌ someone‌ powerful.” He‍ l⁠ifted‌ both‌ arms slightly, f⁠lexing wi‍th‍out shame, as i⁠f pr‌esenting himsel⁠f li‍ke evidence. “Well, I am powerful and I⁠ can⁠not be touched. I have money, influence, everything. I wo‌uld t‍ak‌e care of you better than‍ your own father e‌ver did.”“No” My‌ throat tightened as fresh tea‍rs burned behind‍ my eyes. “I could never love a ma‍n who has hurt my famil‍y so deeply.”“I never‍ did anythin‌g‌, I⁠sab⁠ella,” he said, his voice sharpening. “Do not⁠ make m‌e a‍nswer for my father⁠’s sins.”“Y‍ou‌ wante⁠d to wip‍e out my e‍ntire family,” I shot back, my chest rising and falling quickly. “So yes, I have to h⁠old you responsible. What if things had gone differently? You mig‌ht be slaughtering them⁠ right now.”“Bu

Isabella POVTwo week went by and I didn't even hear from him. I tried to stay busy like my mother advice, so I worked on my artwork then went for long runs, went to the grocery store, and actually tried to start cooking. The tracker was still in my ankle, but I didn’t ask him to remove it.I was afraid it would make a bloody mess and a part of me didn’t mind leaving it in there. I’d ended our relationship, but I guess I wasn’t quite ready to let it go. I have wondered if he had found another woman by now, paid a few prostitutes to entertain him every night so he could forget about me quicker but the thought made me sick to my stomach.I should go out and start meeting new guys so my heart would heal faster, but I honestly didn’t want anyone else. I didn’t want to go through the process of getting to know someone and then trying to find a connection strong enough so I would have good sex. It happened sometimes, but after being with a man like Dante, I knew I would never find it again

Dante POVI sat alone in my office overlooking the Lake as my gaze drifted toward the distant mountains where winter was slowly losing its grip.Winter had always been my season. It was quiet, ruthless, and honest maybe that was why I felt at home in it because I had always been cold. The glass of scotch on my desk sat untouched for a while before I finally reached for it, swirling the amber liquid as my eyes settled on the painting across the room.Isabella even in paint, she had a presence that refused to be ignored. She was captured sitting back on the bed, her posture soft, her expression open in a way that made her look almost fragile. There was something raw in her eyes, something honest and unguarded.The artist had caught her beauty perfectly, but it was more than that. It was the emotion behind it, the vulnerability she tried so hard to hide in real life.The moment I first saw her, she had drawn me in without effort. It had not been gradual or uncertain and once I had her, I

Isabella POVDamian smiled slightly. “I get the impression your father is very protective of you. When my father mentioned to yours about this date, it didn’t seem like he wanted to talk about it.”“Yeah…it’s hard for him. When I was growing up, boys weren’t a part of my life. He got better at it when I moved away, but he’s still not comfortable with it. It wasn’t until Christmas that he told me he was willing to meet a man I loved if I thought I would marry him someday and I knew that was hard for him to say.”Damian nodded in understanding. “You’re his only daughter doesn’t surprise me and just to let you know, I’m a pretty nice guy and I know I’m biased because I’m me, but I’m transparent and my reputation means a lot to me, especially since my family is well known and respected. If I ever did anything stupid, my father doesn’t think I’m too old for an ass-kicking and I know your father would come after me hard, so I’m not looking for trouble.” He smiled at me, trying to keep the c

Isabella POVDamian stilled at my words, his eyes focusing on my face a little harder. “I want to show you my apartment.” I raised my hand and waved the waiter over to bring me the tab. “But why the rush?”I looked at Dante expression in the mirror and this time, that amused smile was gone. Now he just looked angry, like he might destroy the glass he held in his hand..“You said you could help me get over my ex, I want you to do it now.”So we drove in separate cars to my apartment. I was too pissed off to think about what I was doing, so I gripped the steering wheel and felt the adrenaline pump through my veins. I wasn’t even sure why I was doing this, other than to piss off Dante and it would definitely piss him off.I didn’t feel bad for Damian because he was aware of what this was. He knew about Dante, and he knew I just wanted to get over him and he didn’t mind being the man I used to accomplish that.So no one would get hurt, I arrived in my parking lot then walked to the door bu
