Gage walked around Dominic’s desk and sat down in the chair Faro had occupied earlier. “Speaking about jobs, I’m going to torture and kill Alejandro.”Dominic closed his eyes briefly and looked into Gage’s eyes. “Why?”“He was part of the Bratva men that raped Anya. He carved his fucking initials into her shoulder. She never told Lev because she wants her own revenge.”Dominic sighed and emptied the glass of Scotch in front of him. “And you’re going to give it to her?”“She wants to see him bleed and I will make her dream come true,” Gage said.“You do realize it is a fucked up wedding gift, right?”Gage barked out a laugh and relaxed in his seat. “Well, the sex after that discussion was pretty hot, so fuck the wedding gift. I’d kill whoever she wanted me to kill.”“Fuck, Gage.”“I don’t care about la famiglia politics, Dominic. I’m going to kill him and I’m going to make it hurt. Anya’s someone I didn’t see coming. I don’t even know what I’m saying,” Gage said and dragged his hand ov
“The fuck is this?” Hudson asked angrily as he shoved the phone in Rafaella’s face.Rafaella looked up at him and took a deep breath. She’d planned on telling them about those agents in the basement parking lot, but so much had happened since then that she completely forgot about it.“I meant to tell you guys,” she said softly.“Tell us what?” Dominic asked as he walked into their living room, still buttoning his shirt.“Haverley and Halden were waiting for Rafi at the penthouse. He called her your new fucking whore,” Hudson said. His eyes were wild and manic and Rafaella looked away from him. He scared the shit out of her when he got like that.Dominic fists clenched tightly. “Is this true? Did he call you my whore?”“Remy made a video and I was going to tell you, but then that shit with Matthew happened and Remy died and I forgot,” Rafaella said as tears gathered in her eyes.Dominic moved to her and wrapped his arms around her. “It’s okay. I’ll handle it. He won’t bother you again.
Hunter strolled down the hall and headed to the large kitchen of the compound. She hadn’t emerged from their private rooms for the whole day. Lev hadn’t been kidding, he hadn’t waited. She’d been too sore to walk properly and no way would she show weakness to anyone.It was barely six a.m. and she’d left Lev snoring softly on his side. She hadn’t yet explored the compound and she was curious as to who else lived there. She needed coffee desperately. She’d kill for a good cup right about now.The kitchen was large and had a restaurant feel to it with the industrial ovens and stainless steel counters. Pots and pans hung from one wall and two large fridges stood side by side. Directly in front of her were five different coffee machines.Hunter smiled victoriously as she found the coffee pods in the cabinet above the coffee machines. She found a large cup and switched the coffee machine on with the pod nestled safely inside. She smiled again as the machine hummed to life.“You’re very pre
The door to Faro’s quarters opened and Eris walked in. His eyes held a glint of coldness as he walked towards his twin and sat down on the opposite couch. Faro looked up at Eris and wondered what was wrong with him.He looked different, like he was angry but he’d also seen remorse in his eyes. Faro couldn’t quite figure it out but he knew that Eris would tell him, in time.“This is bullshit, Faro,” Eris said and sighed.“He’s the head of this family.”Eris shook his head and chuckled. “It’s easy for him to order you to marry that woman. He married a decent woman and Rafaella is at least half Italian. His children won’t be fucking bastards with mixed blood.”“Neither will mine because I won’t touch that woman. She’s a fucking Makolli. What the fuck was Dominic thinking making an alliance with that man?” Faro’s anger was palpable and Eris could feel it in himself.“First the fucking Russians and now the Albanians. He’s weakening us. We have to stop him, Faro.”Faro looked at his brother
Gage sat on a wingback chair and watched the door of the bedroom open slowly. The gun on his lap felt like an extension of his body. His heart rate was even and his breathing was slow and calm. The lights were switched on and he aimed the gun as the man stopped in front of Gage.“Fuck, Gage. You nearly gave me a heart attack,” he said and smiled nervously.“It’s the end of the line for you, Alejandro,” Gage said and squeezed the trigger.The dart struck Alejandro in his neck and his hand automatically rose to the spot as the tranquilizer ejected into his body and within seconds he slumped to the floor. Gage put the gun back in the holster and bent to pick Alejandro up.Five hours later, Gage parked his bike in front of the warehouse where he’d left Alejandro chained to a wall. He’d be waking up soon and he could feel the blood pumping in his veins in excitement at giving Anya her revenge.It was a twisted start to their relationship and Gage could feel his groin tightening at the thou
“We have a big fucking problem,” Hudson said and slapped the newspaper down on Dominic’s desk.Faro sat in front of the desk next to Gage with Austin, Cooper and Ethan lounging on the sofas. Gage picked the newspaper up, scanned the article and grinned. Dominic regarded Gage coolly and he knew. They’d found Alejandro Esposito’s body.Dominic took the newspaper and looked at the article. Gage was now chuckling and he unlocked his phone and handed it to Dominic. Screams filled the study and Hudson adjusted himself in his pants.“Sick fuck,” Cooper whispered as the rest of them chuckled.“Fuck, Gage.” Dominic’s hard gaze landed on Gage but his expression betrayed nothing as he watched the video. He paused the video halfway and looked at Gage. “Connect it to the television.”Gage busied himself connecting his phone to the television as they all moved to the sofas. Dominic looked warily at Faro. “You might want to leave for this part.”“Why?” Faro frowned as he made himself more comfortabl
Lev stalked down the hallway to Nikita’s apartment and hammered on the door. His heart was thumping against his ribcage and he had no idea how any of this was possible. Yana couldn’t have made it up, he knew that.“Lev?” Nikita’s frown greeted him through the open door before he stepped out.“We need to talk, outside,” Lev said and motioned to his ears.Nikita nodded his head and closed the door behind him, but Lev stopped him. “Fuck, leave Yana with Katarina.”Twenty minutes later, they stood outside on the lawn. Nikita had his hands on his hips as he looked at a worried Lev. “What the fuck is going on?”“You remember Timo?”Nikita’s hands clenched into fists. “You found him?”Lev shook his head. “I don’t know how the fuck this is possible or what the fuck kind of psychic bullshit is going on around here.” Lev took a deep breath. “Yana spoke to Hunter. Actual words, Nikita.”“Impossible, she doesn’t even talk to me,” Nikita said.“She told Hunter that she doesn’t like staying in your
“The contract is signed and Inara has been claimed,” Agron said, looking into the camera of his laptop.“That’s good work, Agron. My daughter now fully belongs to you,” Rocco said with a grin.“It took Dominic less time to arrive at my house than you said it would. They’re figuring things out fast and I’m sure Lorenzo Altobella will be dead sooner than you think. I’ve told Dominic everything,” Agron said and leaned back against his seat.“Does Inara think you love her?”Agron grinned. “Of course she does. She gave herself to me willingly. Everything is in place.”Rocco’s hand smoothed over his beard as he nodded his head. “I don’t like that Dominic has an alliance with the Russians. Volkov will fuck us on the gun sales, same with the imports and exports.”“Dominic is not the one you should be worried about, it’s Gage,” Agron said and relayed how Gage had broken into his house without tripping the alarms or alerting his men that had been on watch that night.“Gage? Are you sure? He’s a
