Cellie’s pov

I looked to Demetrio and it took a while for his tight nod of approval to come. His body was rigid and I knew he was trying hard to not show that he cared. My reassuring smile was brief and passing, covert enough to not make Alexei read into it.

“Dominic,” Demetrio called and his right hand man stepped forward. He looked at me, gesturing me forward, already aware of what his boss wanted him to do. I fought the urge to look at Demetrio one last time and turned to the Russians.

  • Sinfully Yours' Step-Brother of Mine   Big bad guys aren’t supposed to cry

    Demetrio’s POVOver the next couple of days, visitors started arriving. My sister, Georgiana and her husband were the first, their faces tight with worry. Georgiana hugged me fiercely, her trembling hands lingering on my shoulders as she assured me, “She’s strong, Demetrio. She’ll pull through. She has to.”I nodded, unable to form words.Diana came next, followed by a few of Cellie’s colleagues from work. They all said the same thing, offering hopeful encouragement that sounded hollow to my ears. “She’ll be alright,” they’d say, their eyes darting nervously to the machines keeping her alive. I wondered if they truly believed their own words or if they could see how close I was to slipping off the edge.But nothing, none of their reassurances, prepared me for the next visitor.Alexei Mikhailov.The moment I heard he was outside, something in me snapped.“You have five seconds to get out of here,” I growled immediately I set eyes on him.Alexei didn’t flinch. He stood in the hallway, h

    Demetrio’s POVThe blood won’t stop.No matter how much pressure I applied, no matter how tightly I held her, it just wouldn’t stop.“Stay with me, Cellie,” I begged, my voice raw and trembling as the car sped down the road. “You hear me? You stay with me.”Her head lolled slightly, her breaths shallow, her body still. My chest tightened as I pressed my forehead against hers, whispering promises I wasn’t sure I could keep and apologizing for failing her. Because I’d failed her. I had.The car screeched to a halt outside the hospital. My men pulled open the door and I practiCellie jumped out with her in my arms, shouting for the doctors.“She’s been shot!” I yelled, my voice breaking. “She’s losing too much blood!”The paramedics rushed forward, prying her from my arms. Her warmth left me, replaced by the unbearable cold of her absence.I followed as they wheeled her inside, shouting orders and questions I couldn’t answer. My hands and clothes were stained with her blood, the deep red

  • Sinfully Yours' Step-Brother of Mine   Don’t Leave Me

    Cellie’s POVI released a breath I hadn’t realized I was holding, the weight on my chest lightening just a little. When I glanced toward Demetrio, I caught the flash of surprise in his eyes, mixed with a bit of curiosity. He didn’t say anything, but I could tell he was wondering how I’d managed to get Alexei to stand down.Then Demetrio’s gaze softened, his shoulders relaxing as he slowly lowered his gun to the ground. He opened his arms wide, a hopeful smile tugging at his lips, and in that moment, the world seemed to narrow to just the two of us.I didn’t hesitate.I ran toward him, throwing myself into his arms with a desperation that felt like it might consume me. The instant his arms closed around me, the world fell away. Time stopped, and for one fleeting moment, nothing else mattered.His embrace was desperate, crushing, as if he feared I would vanish if he let go. I could feel his heart pounding against my chest, his breaths coming in gasps as he buried his face in my hair.“Y

Not now. Not when lives were at stake.“Listen to me!” I shouted over the noise, grabbing his arm and forcing him to face me fully. “This war? It’s happening because of me. Demetrio is here for me, Alexei. He’s not going to stop until he has me back. You know that!”His jaw clenched, his eyes flashing with a mixture of anger and desperation. “You don’t understand.

It had to.But my heartbeat pounding frantiCellie in my chest as I pinched myself told me that it wasn’t.Alexei stepped closer, his expression unreadable. “You don’t have to accept it right now,” he said, his tone surprisingly calm. “But the truth doesn’t change. You’re one of us, whether you like it or not.”I turned to him, anger flaring in my chest as I met his gaze. “Why are you doing this?” I demanded. “Why now? What do you want from me?”Alexei’s gaze darkened, but his voice remained gentle. “We don’t want anything but for you to return to your rightful place among us. We want you to live close to us, under our protection.”“Under your control, you mean,” My eyes narrowed at him. “I’m familiar with how things work in the mafia. Girls are nothing but breeding animals and pawns in your unfair games of war and power. What’s to say that you won’t sell me off to the highest bidder by tomorrow.”“Nonsense!” Romano spat, “you are my precious daught

My wrists still ached from where the chains had been placed, but I wasn’t about to complain. Not when Alexei had removed them just moments ago, his gaze locked on mine as he warned me with his eyes; Don’t try anything funny.It wasn’t like I could even try anything anyways.Not when my mind was still reeling from the bomb he’d dropped on my lap.He’d called me sister. Why? How was that even possible?And why the hell would he put me in chains if I was indeed his sister?He was either delusional or this was one big elaborate plot in his plan to torture me.I wanted to demand answers, to scream at him until he explained himself. His hands were in his pockets and there was an easy, comfortable set in his shoulders. He wh
