Enzo:

Why did she pick tonight of all nights to be a brat?! I looked at my cards. My mind was racing, but my face was as stiff as a board. I had played poker to know that I had a shitty hand. I was not going to win, unless by some miracle, but I couldn’t fold. The Consigliere had taken away that option.

Tabitha refused to make eye contact with me and stared blankly at her cards; her expression was unreadable. She was way too deep in the game to pull out now, and I knew she wasn't going to fold

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    239. Enzo

    Enzo:“What do you want, Richard?” I asked, as soon as I saw him on a chair in front of my office. “Finally.” He sighed and stood up, adjusting his jacket. “I thought that you were going to take forever. I even had time to go out and have brunch.”I unlovked my office door and went inside. He followed behidn and sat in the chair in front of my desk. “You look dreadful, Enzo. Are you okay?”“Why…” I sat down and tosse dmy coat aside. “... aere you here? You said that you wanted to talk aboyt the launch. Weren’t you against it?”“I still am,”he smield, leaninig back and folding his fingers together. “I’m just fascinated that you are still going through with it and as a soon to be owner of the business, I just have to go along with this idea.”“Okay. you have said your piece. Anything else? The former board will have their shares processed today.”“Enzo.” Richard leaned forward, his smug face softening slightly. “Somethung is wrong. What is it?”“And why do you care?” I snapped. “I thi

    Tabitha:I walked carefully, my heart racing inside my chest. Collin was guiding me, but I still had my hands out, feeling around every time we took a turn or climbed up some steps. “Still don’t trust me to guide you to where you need to go?” Collin asked with a chuckle for the third time already. I didn’t answer. It was already clear that I didn’t trust him. Every now and then, I would snatch my hand back when I felt something cold and damp. Collin chuckled, stroked my hair and pulled me away from there. Sometimes, he would leave me alone and tell me to walk forward on my own, and I heard him laugh as I fumbled forward, taking slower steps and dragging my feet along. “You look so adorable,” he’d remark, watching me fumble forward. My face would burn with embarrassment, and he’d quickly join my side. I hated how sick it made me; I hated how he thought that I was a toy for his amusement.We took another turn, and there was a door right in front of me. Collin let go of me and left m

    Enzo:The train ride back was deathly quiet. I couldn’t think. I could barely even breathe. Tabitha was with them. She was probably hurt and scared. I didn’t need to look across to feel Chase looking at me. He had had a frown on his face ever since we left that mansion. I didn’t care. It wasn’t his lover who was kidnapped by that Mafia, so I didn’t expect him to understand a damn thing.“What is the plan, Mr. Ross?” he asked, his voice dripping with condescension. “We just missed the only opportunity that we had to get prime information about them.”I raised my head fast enough to catch Riley nudging Chase hard in the side. “Don’t say that to him,” she scolded. “Someone he cares about is in danger, and you are more concerned about gathering evidence.”“Oh, come off it, Riles,” Chase snapped back. “The mafia has hurt thousands of people. Sandy is in the hospital because of them. His… lover isn’t any different, and more people are going to be added to the list if we don’t find a perma

    Tabitha: Collin got off the phone. His eyes were all over me, but I kept myself focused on my food. It was delicious, but I couldn’t enjoy it. Not with the knowledge that my life and Enzo’s life were in danger and with that gun on the table. Ernie was still on his knees. His shoulders were shaking; his body was glistening with sweat. Once Collin picked up his phone, it was like Ernire had faded from existence. I saw the way he relaxed through the entire call, but now, the tension was back. I was still eating when Collin reached out and took my hand, squeezing it gently. I still didn't look at him and continued eating. “Enzo is such a good dog,” he said, smiling and rubbing his thumb on the back of my hand. “I am surprised he is being this obedient.” He reached across the table with his other hand and forced my chin up, so that I would meet his gaze. He had a smile on his face that made me shudder. “What on earth did you do to him to have him so twisted around your finger? I w

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    235. Enzo

    Enzo:“Enzo, Enzo… my dear Enzo,” Collin chuckled, his voice loud in my ear. “And what makes you think that you are in any position to make demands. I’m with Tabby here, and I will dictate where she goes or stays.”“I want to make sure that she is alive,” I growled, fighting to keep my anger under control. For a long time, there was silence. My heart was racing in m y chest. What the hell was that bastard up to? “My boys will be there in twenty minutes to pick everything up, and you better make sure that it is what we are looking for, else we’ll be speaking about your lover in the past tense.”The line went dead, but I hurriedly dialed it again. It rang and stopped, a female voice telling me that the number I was dialling didn’t exist. “Shit!” I slammed the phone hard on the table. “Shit, shit shit!” I dropped onto the old couch and ran my hands frantically through my hair. That son of a bitch better not have hurt her. “What do we do now?” Steve asked, stepping forward. “We wait fo

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    234: Tabitha

    Tabitha:Everything hurt. My bones felt like they were filled with bags of cement. I tried to sit up, but a hard throbbing in my head forced me back down to the ground. I whimpered in pain. I wasn’t sure how long I slept. I wasn’t even sure if it was day yet. No one had come to wake me. Collin did say that he needed me up early.I pulled myself up, and a loud sneeze shook my body. “Shit, I caught a cold,” I muttered, sniffling, feeling the mucus running down inside my nose. It was expected. This place was damp and cold. The door clicked, but I couldn’t scramble to my feet fast enough. “Rise and shine, sweetie.”Collin walked in, spinning the key around his finger. He was in a deep crimson suit with a matching tie. He looked down at me, and his smile faded into something else. “What are you doing on the floor?” he asked, slowly lowering himself to my level. My heart raced in my chest, and I backed away instinctively as his hand reached out to touch my face. “I fell asleep on the f

    Tabitha:I wasn’t sure how long I had been lying on the bed. The tears had stopped, and my body ached. I sat up and saw the sheets on the floor. The quiet of the mansion got to me, and I imagined the worst. “Enzo. No…”I got up from the bed and opened the door slightly. It creaked, and my breath c

    Tabitha:I wanted to run upstairs, but I couldn't move. I held the sheets tighter to my body, my eyes darting faster between the chef and Enzo, who was holding him by the collar. I saw the fire in Enzo's eyes. He knew that something was up. He knew. That was the only reason why he was holding the

    Enzo:The morning was warm… too warm. I stretched, and my chest pressed against something warm and soft. The sun wasn’t yet up, but I could still see her silhouette. I couldn't resist running my hands along her smooth, curvy body. My fingers grazed the stitches slightly, and she groaned a little, s

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    93. Tabitha

    Tabitha:I lay in bed, curled, hugging myself tightly. I was trying so hard to remember, but even now, even after so many years, I could still see it, still see Gregory’s face after everything that had happened. He looked different, he sounded different, but it did nothing for me. I could still se
