Leo X Donnie Novels & Stories

Hope flashed across Nico's face. "Luca," he whispered, reaching out. "My boy." Luca moved back before Nico could touch him. He was five, dressed in a black suit my mother's tailor had made, but he looked steadier than most men in the room. "Do not call me that," he said. "My father died the night he denied me in front of strangers and watched them beat my mother. You are Don Varrone. Nothing more." Nico made a broken sound.

“Major enough to get you buried.” Tomas didn’t even try to lie. He blamed Rico. Blamed the system. Blamed the weather. I blamed him. “You’re done,” I said. “Both of you.” Enzo looked pale. “Should I call Santino?” I shook my head. “No one’s bleeding yet.” Santino is my cousin. A doctor. Brilliant. Calm. Drinks more tea than water. He knows the business, but he stays out of it — unless someone’s medically compromised. Then he shows up with his leather bag and his quiet judgment.

~Lianna Black~ My breath hitched, my lips parted to utter a word, yet my mouth felt too dry to mumble a thing. Staring deep into Ace’s pool of gray hues, I swallowed hard to dampen my waterless throat for the sincerity in them is enough to turn me into a putty. Is this some sort of game? Am I hallucinating this? What is going on? “I need you, Lianna.” He cupped my face with his big warm hands. This is real, I had to convince myself that Ace Romano, the Don of the most powerful crime family in the world, is speaking sweetly to me. Asking me to stay.

And until she came along, I honestly didn't think there was a soul in the world that understood me. "Bitch, how you manage to crunch numbers as quickly as you do is possibly one of the wonders of the world, because you're a fucking goldfish with attention span," Dyna says as we join the connecting hallway. "And unfortunately for you, Sophia knows that." I shrug, grinning. "You should know by now that my brain cells usually sign off at seven. Past that, if I manage to remember my name, you're extremely lucky." Dyna is laughing. "It's Doofus, by the way. Your name."

Her question was direct, her voice low and seductive, making Leon's face redden. Leon was silent for a moment, shyly shaking his head as he looked down. The beer made him honest, even though his cheeks were hot. "Yes... I am. I had a girlfriend in high school, but we only kissed, nothing more. And... with my current girlfriend, I haven't had the chance... to go further." He laughed nervously, remembering the moments with Sonya that were always interrupted, the desire that was never fully fulfilled.

"Alright, drop the act. Everyone knows you can't survive without Lucius." He turned to the bouncer and jerked his chin up arrogantly. "She's with me." The bouncer’s attitude flipped instantly. "Of course, Mr. Leo. Right this way, sir," he said, bowing. "Go on in," Leo said, winking at me. "The Don's in a great mood. Just closed a deal on the South Side turf. If you get on your knees and beg him now, he might even toss you a few bucks for some new clothes."

He looked terrible. Unshaven. Bloodshot eyes. Wrinkled suit. The once‑powerful Don now looked like a homeless man. “Valentina,” he said. His voice was barely there. I glanced up. Then back at my papers. “Please sit, Don De Luca,” Vincent said, gesturing to the chair across from me. Alessandro didn’t sit. He walked straight to me. “Valentina. I need to talk to you. Alone.” “There’s nothing to talk about. Please sit. Let’s begin.”

"I'm sorry." Don stare. We stare into each other eyes intensely. I can help but look away this time. His eyes hypnotize me making me drawn to him as I think dirty things with him. Then Don lowers his head slowly. Is he doing what he is doing? He's going to kiss me. I verbally screamed like a schoolgirl. I close my eyes waiting for him to kiss me with my heart racing. I'm waiting for our lips to touch. "Mommy, we are home!" My eyes open wide as I push Don away after hearing Leo's voice. Leo appears with a towel wrapped around him.

Jack lowered his head and didn't answer. "I thought so",Leo said. "Stay and run the company. Knowing who Odin is, we would be gone a long time. Take Neo to a healer, and stay alert. Xavier you too, stay alert". "I will",Xavier said. Leo shifted into his large wolf and took off after Kendrick.

Aaron met him halfway. "Is everything alright with you, man? What's with the sudden laugh?" His friend asked. Leo shook his head as he entered the gym. Everyone appeared busy getting their body in check. He walked towards the locker to change after greeting the guys. Dillon nodded at his friends while they lifted some dumbbells. Dillion raised his voice to speak first. “So I heard Darby was able to shag Leo during the party." He cackled looking towards Leo to be sure he heard.
