Gianna's POV

We stepped into the house and I understood immediately why Dante had warned me. Everything was gold. The fixtures, the damn doorframes, even the frames on the wall all had a gold undertone. This was what happened when someone watched too many movies about kings and decided to make it their entire personality.

Guards stood at every corner holding rifles like they were guarding a president.

Cesare spread his arms wide. "Welcome to my kingdom."

Dante muttered something under his breat

  • Forced To Be The Mafia King's Bride   Chapter 249: Our Marriage Is Not a Cage

    Gianna's POVBruno stopped at the living room doors. His hand rested on the handle for a moment before he turned to look at me."Gianna, you go in. Mira and I will head upstairs."I understood immediately. They didn't want to face Dante's anger. And why should they? This was all my idea. I was the one who convinced Mira to sneak out. I was the one who turned off my phone. I was the one who decided we needed a taste of freedom.I nodded, meeting Mira's gaze. "I'm glad you had fun."Mira touched my arm briefly. "Thanks, Gia."Bruno pushed the door open, holding it for me.Dante was inside. His back was turned to the windows, shoulders broad, legs apart, like he'd planted himself there and hadn't moved in hours.I stepped inside. The door closed behind me.He turned around slowly. His face was etched with anger, every line drawn tight, his mouth pressed into a thin line."Do you want to tell me what the hell you were thinking?""Dante, I..."Before I could finish, he cut me off. "Do you

    Gianna's POVNiccolò stood in front of me, hands in his pockets, that confident smile playing at his lips.A group of guys stood behind him, clearly his friends, all watching me with varying degrees of interest."Gia, it's good to see you. Though, I didn't think I'd see you here." He stepped closer. "Does your husband know you're out?"I straightened. "I'm here with Mira. She needed a night out.""That doesn't answer my question." His smile widened. "I'm guessing he doesn't. I thought you'd be home playing the perfect mafia wife.""I don't have to explain myself to you.""Fair enough." He gestured to the seat beside me. "Can I sit?"I wanted to say no, walk away, find Mira, and leave right then. But refusing him would show fear, and I couldn't give him that."Do what you want."He settled in next to me, too close for comfort. One of his friends handed him a beer, and he took a long drink before turning back to me."Want one?""No."He shrugged and held it out anyway. "Come on. One bee

  • Forced To Be The Mafia King's Bride   Chapter 247: One Night Where We're Normal

    Gianna's POVI sat across from Mira, watching her stir her latte with unnecessary vigor, the spoon clinking against the cup in an anxious rhythm.Through the window, I could see Bruno leaning against the black SUV, his arms crossed, his eyes scanning the street with that perpetual vigilance that never seemed to switch off."I've been invited to this party." Mira still wouldn't meet my eyes. "But I'm not sure I should go."I set down my cup. "What kind of party?""Just... a college party. You know, the kind normal students go to." Her laugh came out nervous, brittle. "Music, dancing, probably terrible beer. Nothing fancy. But I don't know if I'll fit in, you know?""Mira." I reached across the table to hold her hand. "I think you should go."Her head snapped up, surprise written across her features."Yes, really. You should absolutely go. It would help you get your mind off everything that's been happening." I paused, choosing my words carefully. "Especially with you and Bruno."She fr

    Dante's POVShe tried again, and this time, when I blocked, I pulled her forward, spinning her around and pinning her arms to her sides, her back against my chest. "See? Weak.""That's because you're cheating," she protested, but she was pressing back into me, her head tilting to give me access to her neck."This isn't cheating. This is showing you what a real attacker would do." I spoke directly into her ear, feeling her shiver. "You need to be prepared for anything.""Anything?" She turned her head slightly, her lips almost brushing my jaw.I released her abruptly, putting distance between us again. "Yes. Anything. Now, let's work on blocks."We continued, but the lesson quickly devolved into something else entirely. Every time I demonstrated a move, she found a way to turn it into an opportunity to press against me, to run her hands along my arms, my chest, my shoulders under the guise of "learning the motion.""You need to keep your core tight," I instructed, placing my hand on he

  • Forced To Be The Mafia King's Bride   Chapter 245: Learn to Protect Myself

    Dante's POVThe suggestion hit me like a cold splash of water. The thought of her working somewhere else, under someone else's authority, surrounded by men I didn't know, didn't trust..."No." The word came out meaner than I intended. "Absolutely not.""So which is it?" She challenged, tilting her head. "You don't want me working for you, but you don't want me working anywhere else either?""That's not what I said." I pulled her closer, my hands tightening on her waist. "I would more than love having you work with me. The thought of you being involved in that part of my life, of sharing that space with you." I paused, trying to find the right words. "It appeals to me more than you know.""Then why the hesitation?""Because I want you safe. And my world isn't always safe.""Your world is my world now," she used my words against me. "I could take a look at some of the files, familiarize myself with the operations. Start small, see how it goes."I studied her face, seeing the determinat

    Dante's POV"The campus is secure," Bruno stood at ease in front of my desk. "I've mapped out the environment... entrances, exits, blind spots. The security detail has clear sightlines at all times. Everything feels safe."I nodded slowly, some of the tension easing from my shoulders. "That's good, for now.""However..." Bruno hesitated, and that single word made every muscle in my body tense again. "There is one complication.""What complication?""Augusto's son, Niccolò, is enrolled at the college."I sat up straighter, my hands flattening against the desk. "Since when?""He transferred this semester. Same program as Gianna. Same classes.""That can't be good." I pushed back from my desk, rising to my feet. "He wants to get close to Gianna.""I figured the same," Bruno confirmed.My jaw clenched. "Lorenzo must have reached out to Augusto by now. They must be working together. And Niccolò..." I began pacing, the anxiety coursing through my veins like fire. "Is the way to get to Giann
