You Can Run But... Power Struggle
He expected the slumping, and that told him that whoever she was, she either knew who he was or was just scared of Matteo shooting a gun close to her body."You know her?" Matteo was now pulling closer to him, his gun at his sides.Zayne shot him a look. "How the hell should I know her? Like we just fucking saw her here!""Calm down; I thought it was one of the girls you knew, Devil."He shook his head and turned back to the body. He bent down to her, the torch on her face, the tip of his fingers trailing from her cheeks to her chin. Even out in the cold, she still sweated profusely. Her auburn hair looked scattered, and there was blood matted to one side of her head, scratches on her face, and trails of blood on her pretty pink lips.He swallowed, his eyes trailing down her neck.She was beautiful—not more beautiful than the women he had been with, but there was something about her."Dude, this place is fucking hot; what the hell are you doing there watching her face?!" Matteo pulled

"The patient had taken a terrible fall, and looking at the bruises and slight fractures; she seemed to have rolled down a rocky hill, or in a house, down the stairs."Gia could only stare at the doctor's mouth, her white coat still on; she was the first person she had seen when she opened her eyes, and the second was the tall guy with the softest eyes she had ever seen.Even though his voice didn't match those eyes, Gia knew she'd have been calm with him if he hadn't shot at her.Not until she heard the doctor say..."Don Zayne seemed interested in her, a friend of his?" The man shook his head, his eyes still on her unfocused pupils, trying to take in the room she was in."The Devil of Rome wouldn't mind adding her to his collection, though." There was a small smile at the side of his lips.She would have been offended if her ears didn't ring from what he had just said, "DEVIL OF ROME!" No, it couldn't be,Or so she thought.Axel had sent her parents' bodies to the Mafia, and she had

Being sheltered by death, For not only did it come with death, But also the fear constantly eating you up.No. Nothing had happened; after all, it had just been one night, and that night I bawled my eyes out, crying for my family, who were murdered by the last person they had expected.Axel. His name left bitterness on my tongue. How could he? after everything father did for him, taking him in as family after a raid by the then-Don Derinem and Don Damon?He was taken during one of the missions they were sent on, and after refusing to disclose the whereabouts of the cartels, they had him killed.Nathan told me that he had left for school one day, and when he came back, he met a boy about his age sitting on father's seat, and he almost had him beaten up when father introduced him as his brother.

You Can Run But... Bad deal
Authors POVHe has seen those eyes before; he could swear on it. Soft blue, the color of a calm sea, they watched his every mood change, fearful and stunned. Behind that fear was calculation.Or maybe he was just overthinking it. the Mafia's security forces having him suspect every damn thing, including a girl in a white towel who had lost her memory.He pushed back, his right-hand flexing when he raked his fingers through his hair. "Trust me, Contessa," he said, shaking his head slowly as if regretfully, "You aren't my type. You shouldn't fear.He saw a little anger in her eyes, and when he turned his hard gaze on hers, she immediately melted.He pointed to the bed and said, "Do not wear whatever that is outside of your room; there are men out here. It won't be my fault if they don't control themselves."The blood was working its way around her body again."And Contessa?' He turned, saying, "No more words about you leaving the manor. The search for who your parents are has already sta
You Can Run But... Harsh Reality
She ran into the room, shutting the door behind her. She searched the lock, turning in the keys, then moving backward as if the door were one big monster she didn't want to touch.Except that it was going to bring in a monster in a few minutes.What was he doing to the man? Had he told Don he caught her trying to break through the padlocks, would he come for her after he was done with her assaulter?If she'd known, she wouldn't have fought; she would have stayed and gotten it done, then gone back as if nothing had happened.She made the mistake of looking out the window again, blinking when she saw two other soldiers holding a wounded man in between them, seeing Don behind them, watching with the same rage on his face. Gia pulled back.Her heartbeat was thudding loudly against her ears, and she clutched her chest to keep it calm.A furious knock on her door had her straightening in a heartbeat. There was no way he was in front of her door in just how many seconds?"Contessa," the cool
You Can Run But... About us
Zayne's POV.I wasn't supposed to be here, driving her downtown to get new outfits, but then here we were, and she had her face out the window, her Auburn splashing in all directions. Good thing I had my glasses on, for right now I was being a creep.She smiled at me, and though I didn't smile back, I had this tug in my chest; it felt like I was dripping down like goo.She was a whole lot more character than she was the night before, though I hadn't told her anything because she didn't remember anything that went on.I wonder how mad she'd go if I told her she had asked me if I'd kiss her.The lust was a mutual thing, then. The liquor had helped her spill, and getting her drunk again had its appeal. Too bad. I made that bet.I looked toward her again, and this time she had her hands out of the window, her eyes closed, loving the feel of the breeze on her fingers.She looked shocked when I told her we were going to get her clothes, and even more shocked when I borrowed her one of my po
You Can Run But... Under the fountain
Author POV "How did you find out?" Zayne clenched his fists against his side. "Happened that today I was ready to kill; didn't take his soldier time to start talking, but that was the only thing he was saying, nothing else," Matteo answered me. "Why do I feel like you are hiding something?" Zayne's jaws were beginning to work up. Matteo knew how much he hated being kept in the dark. Matteo noticed the tone immediately: "Are you done with her?" Zayne turned to the boutique to see her and Nora coming out of it with countless bags in their hands; she was now in jean trousers and a white shirt, one of the clothes she had chosen. "Yeah, we are; I'll be there in an hour," He felt her behind him. ******** "I'll be there in an hour," she heard him say, and she stopped, standing behind him, wondering whom he was talking to, and with the tension on his shoulders, she wasn't so sure it was good. He turned to look at her, sizing her up, and that got her mesmerized by how his eyes changed
You Can Run But... The Idea
She felt like throwing up looking at a face hell-bent on destroying her; even without knowing her secret, she wondered what would happen now that he knew who she was."For someone who lies so much, you really have a way of showing your feelings on that face." Matteo dug his hands into his pocket. "You dance very well too; your father had to hide the fact that he had another daughter."That was his only restraint from pulling her by the hair—a cartel in the manor, who the hell ever heard of that?"What's your aim, Gia? Why are you here, all around the Don?"She shook her head in fear as it began to eat up her voice box. "It's not what you think, I swear to you...""Your father stooped so low sending his last daughter....""No, my father didn't send me," another of these damn tears was pouring from her face, "my father is dead.""More lies?""No damnit!" Sobbing profusely, what did she have to lose? Capo Bastone already knew that in a few minutes Zayne would be walking through that door
