Best Don Delillo Books

Eu estava grávida de oito meses e participava de um baile de caridade com meu marido, o Don Massimo, quando uma família rival nos atacou. A multidão entrou em pânico. Fui empurrada ao chão com violência. Havia sangue por toda parte. Massimo perdeu o controle, gritando por médicos, desesperado para salvar meu bebê. Mas, quando acordei, eles tinham desaparecido. Ambos. Sem bebê, sem Massimo. Lembrei-me dos tiros, de Massimo me protegendo com o próprio corpo. Um pavor gelado tomou conta de mim. Arrastei-me até uma cadeira de rodas e corri pelo corredor. Foi quando os ouvi — Massimo e o médico. — Don, sinto muito. Fizemos tudo o que pudemos. O bebê… ele não sobreviveu. Lágrimas escorriam pelo meu rosto. Eles mataram meu bebê. A família rival matou meu bebê. Mas as palavras seguintes dele destruíram meu mundo. — Havia apenas uma equipe médica. Eu tive que fazer uma escolha. Bianca… ela também estava carregando meu filho. Massimo suspirou e então deu a ordem: — Ninguém conte a Arabella. Ela vai criar o filho de Bianca como se fosse dela. Ele será meu único herdeiro. Tapei a boca com a mão, minha visão embaçada pelas lágrimas enquanto me virava. O homem que eu amava era uma mentira. Tudo bem. Se ele quer uma guerra, ele vai ter uma.

"I'm not yours!" I snap, my eyes narrowing into slits as I glare at him. A wicked grin curls on his lips. "Oh, but you are, little deer. How can you even begin to deny it?" He leans in closer, his breath hot against my neck as he drags his nose along my skin, inhaling deeply. "You let me touch you. Now, you. Are. Mine." I shake my head vigorously, my voice trembling as I stammer, "I... I wasn't awake. I didn't know it was you. I thought it was him!" The words spill out, more an attempt to convince myself than to sway him. His dark, sinister laugh reverberates as he presses closer, pinning me against the wall, his body a cage around mine. "Yet your eyes were fixed on his face, weren't they, little deer? Even as you came so hard around my fingers." He's right. My heart pounds as I recall the moment, my gaze locked on Justin, terrified he would wake and discover us. Luna thought she had everything she wanted—a loving relationship with her boyfriend, Justin, and a life that felt secure. But everything changed in a single, haunting night. For years, Luna had been living under the shadow of a mysterious stalker, someone who invaded her apartment, left unsettlingly sweet gifts, and even stole her clothing. She never imagined that the danger was closer than she could have ever suspected. After a night of partying, Luna drifts off to sleep between Justin and his best friend, Dante. But what she doesn't know is that Dante, the man she trusted, is the very stalker who has been obsessing over her for years. And now, with her so close, his twisted desires are becoming impossible to resist.

Two years ago, I was the Donna of the Costa family. When I was on my way to attend the family meeting, I was killed by my husband's childhood sweetheart, Isabella Rossi. She shattered my limbs and smashed my belly before throwing me into an abandoned mine pit. It was such a shame that I was pregnant with the heir Matteo Costa had been waiting for the past five years when I died. Not only did Isabella frame me for working with the enemy forces, but she also broke her own legs and claimed that she got hurt from stopping me. Matteo publicly announced that he decided to sever all ties with me. He also placed a bounty on my head. Just like that, I fell from my position as the Costa family's Donna to a traitor who was wanted by all. Two years later, the mine pit collapsed on itself. That was when the workers dug out my rotten corpse.

“You cannot love me, Enora. I had told you that you couldn’t.” His brown eyes were almost popping out of their sockets, he yanked his hand away from mine and took a step backward, ruffling his brunette hair, he cursed. I love this man. “You cannot love me, I am your best friend’s father.” “But I can fuck my best friend’s father?” My voice cracked in disbelief, is this what my life is now? I had tears in my eyes, it’s always been like this since I met him, yet I love him. ~~ It was summer break and Enora had just gotten the job of filling in for the personal assistant of Mr Wright , her best friend's father.

Enora couldn’t help but fall head over heels for her best friend's father, he’s the first man to ever treat her like a princess, but Nathan has other intentions which didn’t include loving her.

I know it’s wrong to want my dad’s best friend, a man who was old enough to be my dad, but what could I possibly do when I see him in my dream and imagination each time I close my eyes? What could I do when this desire keeps driving me nuts, when I keep getting wet down there just at the sight of him? I tasted the forbidden fruit, and I liked it. I liked every inch of it, and now I can’t bring myself to stop wanting more…

"I am your master, I own you. Until your father is able to pay me what he owes, you are just a body for me to fuck and dispose of as soon as you give me an heir" His grip on my chin grew more hurtful as he said those words to me. His menacing scowl made him look like he would want want nothing more than to kill me on the spot. "I am going to pay you back, Tell me how much he owes you right now and I'm going to pay everything back, YOU SON OF A BITCH!" I scream as hard as I can into his face. My hand balling into a fist. His head snapped back as he erupted into a wicked laughter, you think you can pay me what your father owes me?" He released my chin then moved to steps backward. His voice dropped to a whisper, vibrating with restrained anger as he continue to speak, "I dare you to try. Your father owes me half a million dollars, but since you have decided to take on this debt, I give you a month." Rue; Freedom was everything I have ever yearned for, a time when I can finally breathe a breath of relief, a time when I can finally be relieved of the burden of my alcoholic, selfish and gambling addicted father. Until my father sold me to the ruthless mafia Don, Alessandro Vanillin as a payment of five hundred thousand dollars. It was stupid of me to think I was better away from my father.

Je suis revenue à la vie, la veille de mon mariage. La première chose que j'ai faite ? J’ai échangé mon futur mari avec celui de ma sœur. La dernière fois, j'avais épousé Julian, un magnat de la technologie au tempérament doux. Il n'avait pas supporté mon caractère fougueux, et moi, je ne supportais pas sa mollesse. Notre mariage avait sombré en moins d'un an. Ma sœur, douce et timide, devait épouser Robin Kane dans le cadre d’un mariage arrangé, le Don de la plus grande famille criminelle de New York. Elle ne supportait pas cette vie brutale et chaotique. Tourmentée par Isabella, la prétendue amoureuse d'enfance de Robin, elle était tombée dans une profonde dépression et en était morte. Alors, quand je suis revenue, j'ai pris une décision : ce serait moi qui épouserais le Don. Mais je ne m'attendais pas à ce qu'après le mariage, le Don froid et impassible devienne un homme totalement différent. Chaque nuit, il était au-dessus de moi, m'embrassant comme s'il était obsédé, murmurant : « Ma belle… je vais te faire du bien. Encore une fois… juste une de plus, bébé ? »

J'étais enceinte de huit mois. J'assistais à un gala de charité avec mon mari, le Don Massimo, lorsqu'une famille rivale nous a attaqués. La foule a paniqué. On m'a violemment bousculée et je suis tombée au sol. Du sang partout. Massimo a complètement perdu la raison, criant pour appeler des médecins, désespéré de sauver mon bébé. Mais lorsque je me suis réveillée, ils avaient disparu tous les deux. Plus de bébé, plus de Massimo. Je me souvenais des coups de feu, de Massimo qui me protégeait de son corps. Une peur glaciale m'a envahie. Je me suis hissée dans un fauteuil roulant et me suis précipitée dans le couloir. C'est alors que je les ai entendus — Massimo et le médecin. « Monsieur, je suis désolé. Nous avons fait tout ce que nous pouvions. Le bébé… il n'a pas survécu », a-t-il murmuré. Les larmes ont coulé sur mon visage. Ils avaient tué mon bébé. La famille rivale avait tué mon bébé. Mais les paroles suivantes de Massimo ont complètement brisé mon monde. « Il n'y avait qu'une seule équipe médicale. J'ai dû faire un choix. Bianca… elle portait aussi mon enfant », a-t-il dit d'une voix lourde. Massimo a soupiré, puis a donné son ordre. « Personne ne doit rien dire à Arabella. Elle élèvera l'enfant de Bianca comme le sien. Il sera mon unique héritier », a-t-il déclaré. J'ai plaqué une main sur ma bouche, la vue brouillée par les larmes, avant de me détourner. L'homme que j'avais aimé n'était qu'un mensonge. Très bien. S'il voulait une guerre, il l'aurait.
