Michael's car pulled away from the Retroferd estate and Michael sat back in his seat and just stared through the window and said nothing for the first two minutes.

His driver knew better than to speak when he was in such a terrible mood.

The city was waking up slowly around them. Early morning traffic wasn't bad but Michael's hand was trembling with the thoughts that were running through his head or the particular cold sweat that had been sitting at the back of his neck since last night.

He had

    Pascal drove like the road owed him something and his grip on the steering wheel was extremely tight as he kept looking at the back through the rearview mirror every few minutes.Every red light and slow car in front of them made Raina's chest tighten another notch. She sat in the back with Maxton's head still in her lap, one hand pressed flat against his chest, counting his breaths like each one was a small gift she was terrified of losing."Almost there," Pascal said from the front, more to himself than anyone else.Carlos said nothing, he just watched Maxton's face the whole ride, his own jaw tight, his hands resting on his knees with a stillness that only people who had seen the worst kind of things could manage.When the hospital finally came into view, Raina let out a breath she felt like she had been holding since the warehouse.There were already doctors and nurses waiting outside with a stretcher, which meant Carlos had made calls during the drive without her even noticing.

    “You bitch!” After finally recovering from the shock of the slap, Bailey yelled angrily at Raina.“That's enough, Bailey!” Carlos angrily reprimanded her with a deep frown.Raina just acted like she didn't hear what Bailey said and just looked ahead without a word.Carlos could only sigh and start the car. The drive to the woods felt like the longest hour of Raina's life.She sat in the back seat with her hands clasped tightly on her lap, her knee bouncing and her eyes fixed on the road ahead like staring hard enough would somehow make the car go faster. She didn't talk and nobody else did either. The only sounds were the engine, the tires on the road, and the occasional crackle of someone's radio up front.She kept replaying Maxton's voice in her head. The way he said her name and how calm he sounded, too calm, like he was working very hard to keep it that way. She didn't know whether to be relieved or terrified, so she couldn't help but feel anxious.When the cars finally rolled to

    “Carlos, please meet the doctor and handle all the necessary papers” Raina said with a hoarse voice while still holding Angelo in her arms.Carlos nodded and walked with the Doctor to the other end of the hallway.“Do you think he understands?” Lisa suddenly asked from the side while looking at the sleeping Angelo.“Probably not…toddlers are dumb as fuck, so he probably doesn't understand” Bailey rolled her eyes and said without any emotion.Marcus angrily glared at her and she frowned with a confused expression. “What? Why are you giving me that look?” She asked him and this time, it was her friend Lisa that glared at her.Raina was pissed off but she wasn't in the mood to deal with Bailey's insensitive actions.“ That little boy just lost his father and he is now an orphan, that's something I expect you to know how painful it is” Pascal said from the side and his voice was cold.“You expect me to know? Why don't you just call me an orphan directly!” Bailey suddenly raised her voice

  • Married The Wrong Groom: Claimed By The Ruthless Don    CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THREE: Roger's Bloodlust

    Deep in the woods, far from any main road, stood an old, abandoned building, its walls covered in thick moss, its windows boarded up with rotting wood that had long since given up trying to keep out the weather. Inside one of the back rooms, Maxton sat on a cold metal chair, his wrists bound tightly behind him with thick rope, two of Evan's men standing guard by the door, guns slung casually over their shoulders like they had no real concerns about him trying anything.His mind wasn't at peace. Not even close.He kept replaying the image of Xander in his head, over and over, like a wound he couldn't stop picking at. The blood soaking through his friend's shirt. The pale, gray color his face had turned. The way his eyes kept fluttering shut despite his clear effort to stay conscious as the men loaded him into the car to rush him to the hospital. Maxton had seen enough wounds in his lifetime, more than most men ever would, to know exactly what that kind of injury usually meant. Still,

    The mocking voice still hung in the air when Raina's whole body went rigid with fury. Her hands curled into tight fists at her sides, her grief from moments ago twisting instantly into something hot and dangerous, burning away the tears that had been falling just seconds before."You," she hissed into the phone, her voice shaking with barely controlled rage. "You won't get a good death, Evan. You're going to beg for it. You're going to pray for death and it still won't come for you. I'll make sure of that myself."Around her, everyone listening to the call wore the exact same expression, dark, simmering hatred burning behind their eyes. Carlos's jaw was clenched so tight a muscle ticked beneath his cheek. Pascal's hands had curled into fists at his sides, his bandaged head not stopping him from looking ready to commit murder. Even Marcus, still nursing his injured leg, leaned forward like he wanted nothing more than to reach through the phone and strangle the man on the other end wit

    The moment the doctor finished speaking, the hallway fell into a heavy, suffocating silence. Nobody moved or spoke.. . It was like the air itself had gone still, waiting.Raina felt her chest cave in. The tears she had been trying so hard to hold back finally broke free, streaming down her face in a steady, silent flood. She pulled Angelo closer against her chest, hugging him so tightly that the little boy let out a small, confused whimper, sensing something was terribly wrong even if he didn't fully understand what.She turned to Carlos, her voice trembling but firm. "I'll take him in.""Raina…" Carlos started, his own eyes slightly red and tired."I'll take him," she repeated, already stepping toward the doors.Bailey's frown deepened instantly, stepping forward to block her path. "The doctor said Xander asked for his son. Not for you."Raina didn't even bother answering her. She simply walked past Bailey, shouldering past her without a second glance, and pushed through the heavy do

    Raina stood exactly where she was with her eyes on the man in the wheelchair and her brain doing something it almost never did.It went completely silent like every thought that had been running at full speed for the past several hours had hit a wall at the same time and stopped dead, and she could

    The taxi stopped two streets from the Valente mansion.Raina had told the driver to stop there deliberately. She wasn't going to pull up to the front gate in a civilian car and give Michael's guards thirty seconds of warning. She was going to come in from the side road through the gap in the east w

    The car had stopped at an ugly angle with two wheels off the road and the front end pointing at nothing useful.Lorenzo shoved the door open and got out.His legs were shaking. Not from fear. From the kind of adrenaline that had nowhere to go and was currently burning through his body like acid loo

    Raina moved quickly, her mind focused on seeing Lorenzo. She went to her closet and pulled out a pair of ash-colored joggers and a thick black hoodie. She slipped on the joggers and pulled the hoodie over her head, tucking her dark hair inside the hood. She didn't take a bag or any money, she only
