Gabriella's Hellfire: An Arranged Marriage Mafia Romance

[BOOK2] They said life itself is the most wonderful fairy tale. I think that’s bullshit. Don’t get me wrong. I love fairy tales. I’m a bibliophile. In fact, I read about a hundred books a year. And in my life? I don’t marry my prince charming. I have to marry the big bad wolf. I’m not Cinderella. I don’t have evil sisters or a broken family. Actually, I grew up privileged in New York. I get what I want—most of the time, anyway. But that’s just how it is when you’re the daughter of New York’s Italian crime boss: Don Alessandro De Luca. Sounds like I'm a modern-day princess, don't I? But the truth is, in our world, I’m not free to do a lot of things. And the men in my life shield me from the family business. I get it. Restrictions keep me and my family safe. But it gets frustrating how they think I can't handle it. And now, I’m shackled to something I don’t have control over—unless I want my family endangered. I'm arranged to marry the grandson of the Morelli Family—our rival family who had been after my father’s seat for years. I would rather die than end up with the enemy. But everything changed in the blink of an eye. My prince charming died because of them. Now, I can’t escape it. Now, the only choice I have left is to marry the villain to save my family. So how can my life be a fairy tale when I’m living in a nightmare? Nevertheless... This villain will have to see. I can't be restrained. I'm born to be free. **Gabriella's Hellfire is Book 2 of The De Luca Mafia Series** _______________ This is my first published work that is written in first person P.O.V.

Chapter 48 - Gabriella

[ Song Recommendation: Bad Drugs by King Cavalier, ChrisLee ]

I'm momentarily shocked, but when his hand slides to the back of my head and he pulls me closer, I'm kissing him back hungrily like I'm possessed.

It's unlike the first kiss from two nights ago. This one, I finally feel more of his full lips on mine and it's taking everything in me not to faint on his lap with how it's making me delirious. He tastes like a freshly picked red apple—sweet and juicy.

He parts my lips with his tongue and our kisses turn frantic, my hands searching him everywhere, wanting to feel all of him. I kiss him desperately as though he's the oxygen I needed after being under the water for an eternity. And he kisses me like he's sucking my soul and then giving me air to breathe again.

It's all-consuming and leaves me breathless until all I can breathe is him.

He smells dark and dangerous and warm and addicting. Oh dear lord, I can't stop. The temptation is too much.
