Vows written in blood Chapter Twenty-One: The missing hours
“You don’t get to walk away from that now.”The room went quiet. Luciano stood by the door, one hand still resting on the handle.For a second, I thought he would leave anyway.Honestly, I expected him to.The man wasn’t exactly known for listening when people told him what he could and couldn’t do.Especially me.Slowly, he turned his head.Those cold blue eyes landed on mine.I folded my arms.“You made a bargain, I kept my end of it.”He stared at me for another moment.Then finally, “I know.”My eyebrows rose, that wasn’t the answer I expected.Luciano let go of the handle. He walked back into the room.Not fast.Controlled.Like he was already regretting this.“You are right i don’t break my word.”I held his gaze.“Good.”His eyes narrowed slightly.Luciano sighed through his nose before finally lowering himself back into the chair opposite mine.The room fell quiet again.For once, neither of us rushed to fill it. Finally, he spoke.“Tomas took you to the hospital.”I said noth
Vows written in blood Chapter twenty: A mark from the past
“Does she have a pink flower tattoo on her wrist?”“I don’t know.”Luciano didn’t move, his eyes stayed on mine. “Think carefully.”“I am.”“Was it pink?”“I don’t know.”“A flower?”“I was at the brink of death and you expected me to look at a tattoo.”Silence fell in the room, the kind that seemed to press against the walls.Luciano stared at me for several more seconds, like if he looked hard enough, the answer would suddenly appear.I shifted in my seat.“Yes, there was a tattoo.” His jaw clenched. “I’m certain about that part.”“But not the flower?”I shook my head. “It happened too fast.”He looked away, not for long, just a second. But I noticed.Luciano Volkov wasn’t a man who looked away, not from bullets, not from blood, not from death. Yet somehow a tattoo had managed to do what none of those things could.“Try again.”I frowned. “I already am.”“Close your eyes.”“What?”“Just close your eyes and try to remember.”I hesitated because it felt a bit strange, but it was not l

“How did you find me in that hospital?”Luciano stared at me for a long moment.Then he leaned back in his chair.“You’re in no position to seek answers, darling.”I folded my arms across my chest.“Then I guess you’re in no position to get answers either.”One of his brows lifted.“You seem to forget who you’re talking to.”“And you seem to forget who you’re asking questions from.”The room fell silent.His cold blue eyes stayed on mine.“You are becoming difficult.”“And you’re becoming annoying.”A smirk tugged at the corner of his mouth.“I’ve also been called worse.”“Good. Add kidnapper to the list.”“Technically, I had you retrieved.”I stared at him.“You drugged me.”“You were panicking.”“I was escaping.”“You were naked.”“That wasn’t my fault.”His smirk deepened slightly.For some reason that irritated me even more.I leaned back in my chair.“You wanted answers.”“I do.”“Then answer my question.”“No.”“Then i am not saying a word”The room went quiet again.Luciano tap
Vows written in blood Chapter eighteen: The Call He Couldn’t Ignore
“Boss.” Luciano’s man kept his eyes lowered. “You need to take this.”Luciano’s man kept the phone stretched out in front of him.The room fell silent.Luciano didn’t move.His gaze remained fixed on me for another second before shifting to the phone in the man’s hand.“I don’t want to take calls right now.”The henchman hesitated.For the first time since I had arrived here, one of Luciano’s men looked uncertain.“It’s important.”Luciano’s eyes narrowed slightly.The man said nothing else.He didn’t have to.Something passed between them.A look.Brief.Silent.But enough.Luciano stood. His chair scraped softly against the floor.He slipped the phone from the man’s hand before looking back at me.“Give me a moment.”Then he walked out.The door closed behind him.Silence rushed into the room.I stared at the spot he had just occupied.Three days.The words still echoed inside my head.Three days since the café, three days since Victor collapsed forward onto the table, three days si
Vows written in blood Chapter seventeen: The Price of Failure
“You bastard.”The words barely left my lips before the world tilted beneath me, the warehouse lights blurred into streaks of white and gold.The shouting behind me became distant.Muted.As though I had suddenly been shoved underwater.My fingers tightened against the front of Luciano’s shirt.For a second, I thought I saw something flicker across his face.Regret.Amusement.Pity.I couldn’t tell.The drug moved quickly through my body.Too quickly.My knees threatened to give out.Strong arms caught me before I hit the ground.The last thing I heard before darkness swallowed me was the sound of hurried footsteps rushing toward us.Then, voices.Muffled.Far away.“…Boss, please.”The darkness shifted.My eyelids felt impossibly heavy.The moment I opened my eyes again, the world slowly drifted back into focus.Shapes first, then colors, then sound.Luciano stood a few feet away from me.His back faced me.The black suit jacket he had wrapped around me earlier was still draped over
Vows written in blood Chapter sixteen: The Monster I Ran To
It was Luciano.For a moment, I was short of breath.The cold night air brushed against my skin, of all the people in the world, of all the places.It had to be him.Heat rushed to my face; the moment I gazed into his eyes.My arms crossed instinctively over my chest, doing a terrible job of covering anything as I took an awkward step backward.The concrete beneath my bare feet felt freezing.My dignity had apparently died somewhere between climbing through a warehouse window and crashing into the dirt outside.Perfect.Just perfect.His gaze moved over me, it felt like his eyes were piercing through my flesh, simply taking in the sight before him.Disheveled hair, bruised wrists, bare feet covered in dirt, a hospital band around my wrist.A woman who had clearly gone through hell.The sounds of shouting behind me shattered the moment.“Spread out, she couldn’t have gotten far!”“Check around the back,” another voice said.My head snapped toward the warehouse; flashlights danced throu
Vows written in blood Chapter five: A dangerous rule
Luciano slammed his fist on the counter again. “How the hell did they get access to a live feed?”I stared at the blank laptop screen, my skin crawling. “They were watching us the whole time we were talking. Right now. Get the power off or something!”Gunshots erupted outside before he could answer
Vows written in blood Chapter four: They found us
“Get down!” Luciano shouted again, diving toward me.I dropped to the floor as glass exploded across the room. Another shot rang out, then two more. Bullets slammed into the wall above my head, sending plaster raining down.“Stay low!” he barked, crawling closer while firing back through the broken
Vows written in blood Chapter three: Forced into his world
The private jet engines roared as we took off from the London airstrip. I sat across from Luciano, still in my torn red gown, arms crossed tight over my chest.“You can’t just kidnap me, and then take me to Milan,” I said, glaring at him. “My family will be looking for me. They know you took me ho
Vows written in blood Chapter two: Trapped with my enemy
The car jolted again as bullets slammed into the armored side. I gripped the seat so hard my nails dug into the leather.“Drive faster, damn it!” Luciano barked at the driver, his voice cutting through the chaos.I turned around to look out the back window. Two black SUVs were gaining on us, flashe
