Mikey Barone Novels & Stories

God. Landon made me sit on a high stool at the bar - I'm too short for him, he's like 6', Mariano maybe is 6'3, and why is he interrupting my thoughts? - and ordered me a cranberry and vodka. I was underage, but Landon knew the bartender, so it all worked out just fine. I’m not a big drinker, but I do appreciate the occasional booze. Just recreational, nothing wild.

I buy a bottle of whisky and sit by myself at a corner. When I see Mikky walking towards me, I think about leaving. Mikky and I attended the same school but he was and still is the most pathetic person I have ever met because he indulges in petty rivalry. "Well…well…well," he says and clasps his wrists. I know there's trouble brewing in the dark. Even with the sunlight outside, the bar is still cheaply dark and in here, no one cares. “But if it isn't the self-proclaimed almighty Flynn Woods."

Mike muttered. “It's fine,” Martinez replied, a smile on her face. “It is nice to meet you anyway. I believe you are a good friend of Julian.” “I am,” Mike nodded. “My name is Mike, just in case you don't know. I am the CEO of Holly lounge. I'm a rich guy, just in case you wonder how I hang out with Julian.” I couldn't hold myself back from laughing. “Don't mind the clown,” I told Martinez. “But to be honest, he started as a bartender. He wasn't always rich.”

Kenny's pov When the hunk of a man asked me for my name I hesitated only for a few seconds, my wolf has been screaming in my head about all four of them being my mates but I ignored her. I couldn't have a mate as I was destined to die after I kill the son of a bitch alpha. She tried to tell me something but I blocked her out, not wanting to get my hopes up of a happier life. That was why I decided to give them my name, I had nothing left to lose. "It's Kenny, Kenny McKenzie alpha of the extinct White Moon pack" I answered him with my head held high and shoulders straight. The shock and disbelief on their faces almost made me laugh, but the sadness of my words stopped that in its track, if I

“Because that’s the only kind worth playing. I didn’t come here to play easy, and I sure as fucking hell will not allow him, or anyone, to try and fucking scarce me from my goal.” And in the silence that followed, I could almost see it, the look on Liam’s face when he realized his perfect world was cracking. This time, it wouldn’t be through rogues or whispers. This time, it would be with his own kind, his precious businessmen. And I was going to enjoy every second of it.

It was war smelling the mate bond. I thought the bond was dead. “You smell like power now,” he growled. “Like storms and the moonlight. What really happened to you?” I stood tall, refusing to hide my body. “I survived. I was what you tried to kill.” Damon’s jaw dropped. For the first time, I felt pain appear right in his eyebrows. “I was wrong, Annie. Cassandra lied to me. I only allowed pride and fear to make me throw away the best thing in my life… my coming Luna.”

I remain composed with a small smile plastered on my face. Maximo smirks at me, his gaze simply darkening in a frightening way. It's the first time he has looked at me like this, “ Isn’t that right, Samantha? You won’t play any tricks on us right, cause you know I am itching to burn stuff up,” My senses are alert and I offer a sharp node. He snaps his fingers, “ Great, Santino, call her brother.” He instructs. As he ashes up the cigar in his palms. I took note of how he only smokes one type of cigar, the most expensive one in the world. He is truly living up to his billionaire reputation.

Man, what a happy past . "Mirchan? What are you thinking?" Mikey asked me. "Nothing. Just a happy memory of mine." I answer him. He eats taiyaki here at the shrine. "You? What are you thinking?" "Hm? Oh .. I'm thinking about her." Mikey replied. "Man, who? Which of the two?" I asked him. "Her." he replied. I gasped. Jeez, can't believe he's not yet over with Yen.

She said it would ruin her progress in training. She even met a new guy today, Robby. He works at the bakery and also teaches music at the primary school. He was handsome…not as handsome as Azraiel of course, but handsome in a cute chocolate boy kind of way. He has dark sandy blonde hair and swoon worthy blue eyes...and most importantly, he didn’t make a face when he spotted her drooling over the chocolate truffle pastries.

I asked and when I glanced at him, he was crossing his arms over his chest to give out an intimidating stance, narrowing his eyes into thin slits. Jesus... "Uhuh," he responded tersely. Really, dad? You just had to pull an overprotective father stunt, why don't you? Mike stood up from the bed and held out his hand. "I just want to introduce myself properly due to um... circumstances," he said awkwardly as he shifted his foot. "I'm Michelangelo Lombardi, but you can call me Mike." I glanced back at dad and I saw his eyebrows shoot up, surprise encompassed his entire demeanor. "Lombardi? As in Lombardi Enterprises?" and then he shook his hand.
