Introduction

Han dro meg foran seg, og jeg fÞlte at jeg sto ansikt til ansikt med Satan selv. Han lente seg nÊrmere meg, ansiktet hans var sÄ nÊrt mitt at hvis jeg beveget meg, ville vi stÞte hodene sammen. Jeg svelget hardt mens jeg sÄ pÄ ham med store Þyne, redd for hva han kunne finne pÄ Ä gjÞre.

"Vi skal ha en liten prat sammen snart, ok?" Jeg klarte ikke Ä snakke, jeg bare stirret pÄ ham med store Þyne mens hjertet mitt slo som gal. Jeg kunne bare hÄpe at det ikke var mitt han var ute etter.

Althaia mÞter den farlige mafiabossen, Damiano, som blir tiltrukket av hennes store uskyldige grÞnne Þyne og ikke kan fÄ henne ut av tankene sine. Althaia hadde blitt gjemt bort fra den farlige djevelen. Likevel fÞrte skjebnen ham til henne. Denne gangen vil han aldri la henne dra igjen.

Chapter 1

Althaia

Jeg sto pÄ hotellrommet mitt og gjorde meg klar til forlovelsesfesten til kusinen min. Jeg har alltid vÊrt nÊr Cara, siden vi i utgangspunktet vokste opp sammen i samme husholdning, ettersom begge fedrene vÄre drev en bedrift sammen. For Ä gjÞre en lang historie kort, fant jeg ut at faren min og onkelen min drev en mafia, og siden de alltid var opptatt med hva enn de holdt pÄ med, tilbrakte Cara mesteparten av tiden med meg og moren min. Tragisk nok dÞde moren til Cara da vi var barn, og moren min oppdro Cara som om hun var sin egen datter. Bortsett fra det, var vi en ganske lykkelig familie.

Eller sÄ trodde jeg.

Det er ting du bare ikke legger merke til nÄr du er barn, for hvorfor skulle du det nÄr du er for opptatt med Ä vÊre barn, ikke sant? Faren min, Gaetano, var alltid en travel mann, men han husket Ä tilbringe tid med meg fra tid til annen, ikke sÄ ofte som jeg skulle Þnsket, men det var bedre enn ingenting.

En dag var Cara og jeg nysgjerrige som alltid og prÞvde Ä lytte pÄ foreldrene mine fordi det hÞrtes ut som om de kranglet. Vi hadde sneket oss ned trappen for Ä fÄ en bedre titt og hÞre hva som foregikk, men vi kunne ikke hÞre noe.

Det som skjedde neste sjokkerte oss begge.

Moren min, Jacinta, ga faren min en skikkelig Þrefik den kvelden. Vi sto stille, sjokkerte over Ä vÊre vitne til det som nettopp hadde skjedd, fÞr vi lÞp tilbake til rommet vÄrt og latet som om vi sov for Ä ikke bli tatt.

Dagen etter hadde moren min pakket tingene vÄre, og vi dro. Jeg husker at jeg grÄt sÄ mye den dagen fordi Cara ikke kom med oss. Moren min prÞvde Ä ta henne med, men onkelen min nektet Ä la henne gÄ. Det gjorde vondt for moren min Ä forlate Cara pÄ den mÄten, og jeg var sikker pÄ at hun hadde sine grunner til Ä dra, men Ärsaken til det er fortsatt ukjent. Faren min og jeg holdt ikke kontakten etter det, selv om jeg prÞvde Ä ringe ham fordi jeg savnet ham, men han ringte meg aldri.

Vi flyttet flere timer unna vÄrt gamle hjem, og jeg fikk mÞte Cara nÄr det var mulig, men det ble vanskeligere for henne Ä forlate huset jo eldre hun ble fordi faren hennes ble streng som bare det. Han ble en forelder fra helvete. Han var alltid pÄvirket av alkohol og narkotika, en veldig farlig blanding som gjorde ham gal og slo Cara nÄr han var slik.

Å si at jeg var nervĂžs for Ă„ vĂŠre rundt dem alle for fĂžrste gang pĂ„ en evighet, var en underdrivelse. Jeg visste ikke hva jeg kunne forvente og tenkte stadig pĂ„ om faren min ville vĂŠre glad for Ă„ se meg etter sĂ„ lang tid.

"...Ikke kast opp," sa jeg til meg selv mens jeg tok et dypt pust, spesielt nÄ som jeg var helt pyntet.

Jeg bestemte meg for Ä ha pÄ meg en lang svart silkekjole uten rygg med tynne stropper. Foran hadde den en dyp v-utringning som viste en del av klÞften min. Kjolen var trang Þverst og ble litt lÞsere fra hoftene, med en lang splitt pÄ hÞyre side som stoppet midt pÄ lÄret. Jeg fullfÞrte looken med et par svarte stilettos med Äpne tÊr og stropper rundt ankelen.

Jeg tok en siste titt i speilet og var fornÞyd med arbeidet jeg hadde gjort. Det lange, bÞlgete og tunge brune hÄret mitt nÄdde ned til ryggen, og pÄ hÞyre side hadde jeg satt en rhinestone-lÞvfeste for Ä lÞfte noe av hÄret bort fra ansiktet. Jeg hadde lagt en enkel brun smokey eye som komplimenterte de grÞnne Þynene mine godt og formet dem til Ä se mer katteaktige ut.

"La oss gÄ," sukket jeg til meg selv da jeg var ferdig og gikk ned til lobbyen.

Cara sÞrget for Ä sende en bil til hotellet mitt for Ä eskortere meg til herskapshuset. Mitt gamle hjem. Hjertet mitt begynte Ä slÄ litt raskere ved tanken pÄ Ä vÊre der etter sÄ lang tid, og Ä se om det hadde forandret seg mye gjennom Ärene. Faren min hadde fÄtt seg en ny kone ikke lenge etter at vi dro, og han har til og med en sÞnn. Ikke biologisk, siden det var fra konas tidligere ekteskap, men han behandlet ham som sin egen. Jeg ville lyve hvis jeg sa at det ikke plaget meg skikkelig, fordi han behandlet noen andre mer som sin egen enn meg.

Cara hadde umiddelbart sladret om det og sagt at faren min hadde totalt nedgradert. Hun sa at jeg ville forstÄ hva hun mente nÄr jeg kom dit, og jeg var klar til Ä gi stygge blikk til hvem enn faren min endte opp med Ä gifte seg med.

I heisturen ned til lobbyen kjente jeg nervene ta over, og hendene mine fiklet rundt den lille gaveesken jeg hadde med meg. Det fĂžltes som om magen min var i tusen knuter, og det ga meg vondt i magen.

"Ta deg sammen, Althaia. Hva er det verste som kan skje? Det er bare familie." Jeg pustet ut, prĂžvde Ă„ roe nervene.

Da jeg nÄdde lobbyen, Äpnet heisdÞrene seg, og jeg tok et siste dypt pust, holdt den lille forlovelsesgaven i hendene. Det var ikke noe storslÄtt, bare to champagneglass med teksten 'Mr. Right' med en bart, og det andre 'Mrs. Always Right' med rÞde kyssellepper. Det fikk meg umiddelbart til Ä tenke pÄ Cara fordi hun alltid trodde hun hadde rett. Selv i situasjoner hvor hun ikke hadde det, hadde hun det ifÞlge seg selv. Hun er litt cocky noen ganger.

Da jeg nÊrmet meg midten av lobbyen, stoppet jeg opp da jeg fikk Þye pÄ den hÞye, blondhÄrede mannen i en grÄ dress som satt perfekt pÄ kroppen hans.

"Michael?!" sa jeg sjokkert. Han snudde seg og smilte da han sÄ meg.

"Althaia. Lenge siden sist." sa han med et perfekt smil, som viste hans perfekt hvite tenner. Det var sÄ lenge siden jeg sist sÄ ham, min fÞrste forelskelse noensinne. NÄ husker jeg hvorfor jeg var besatt av ham. Han hadde de vakreste blÄ Þynene jeg noen gang har sett, en skarp kjeve og et glattbarbert ansikt. Det skitne blonde hÄret hans var perfekt stylet, som ga inntrykk av at han ikke hadde prÞvd, noe som bare gjorde ham hundre ganger mer sexy.

Vi datet faktisk da vi var yngre. Han bare visste det ikke.

Jeg stirret bare pÄ ham, munnen var litt Äpen fordi jeg ikke kunne tro mine egne Þyne.

"Herregud, Althaia, ta et bilde hvis du bare skal stirre pÄ meg slik." Han lo, og jeg fÞlte straks varmen spre seg til kinnene mine. Herregud, han har fortsatt den effekten pÄ meg.

"Ikke smigr deg selv for mye, Michael. Jeg ble bare overrasket over Ä se deg her." Jeg lo, hÄpet han ikke merket de rÞdmende kinnene mine.

"Ja, vel, jeg overhÞrte Cara si at du kom, og at hun skulle sende noen for Ä hente deg. Jeg kunne ikke tro at den Althaia kom, sÄ jeg sa at jeg ville komme og hente deg." Han smilte og stakk hendene i lommene pÄ buksene sine. Øynene hans skannet sakte fra mine Þyne og nedover kroppen min, og sÄ opp igjen for Ä mÞte Þynene mine, og ga meg et lat smil i prosessen.

"Kan ikke si at jeg angrer pÄ avgjÞrelsen. Du ser like fantastisk ut som alltid, Althaia." De vakre blÄ Þynene hans ble en nyanse mÞrkere mens han tok meg inn. Hjertet mitt slo litt raskere med mÄten han sÄ pÄ meg.

"Og du ser like kjekk ut som alltid, Michael." sa jeg med et smil mens han sakte gikk opp til meg med et sexy glis pÄ ansiktet.

Å herregud, dette kom til Ă„ bli en lang natt.
