Covenant Friday

Hugo knelt in front of me again, his fingers tracing a path along my jaw. “You’re a beautiful little thing,” he said, his tone mockingly soft. “Maybe I’ll keep you as a pet and prisoner after I dump Dario’s body in the street.”

I glared at him, my voice steady and defiant. “I’m already Dario’s prisoner, Hugo. And I only serve one master, and that’s Dario. I’d rather die than serve an old man with a rusty pipe between his legs.”

The words barely left my mouth before his hand struck my face, the force of the blow knocking me onto my side. Pain exploded in my cheek, blood dripping from my nose and lips.

Hugo loomed over me, his face twisted with rage. “Careful, girl,” he hissed. “That rusty pipe will fuck you right in front of your lover before I kill him. That’ll be the last thing he sees before he rots in hell.”

I stared up at him, hatred burning in my eyes. I would rather die than let this man in between my legs. Dario would come. He had to.

90 days with my billionaire ex

I couldn’t sit still. My legs bounced restlessly as I stared out the window of the jet, clouds blurring past in a haze. How had this happened? How the hell had Hugo outsmarted me? I clenched my fists, jaw tight with frustration. 


I’d always been one step ahead of everyone. But now? Now I was a hundred steps behind that sly old bastard. The thought twisted in my gut. Katy was mine—mine. And Hugo had gone too far by taking her. No one touched what belonged to me. 


I would burn down the world to get her back. Kill anyone. Give my own life, if I had to. But Hugo? Hugo wouldn’t just die—he’d suffer. 


The buzz of my phone pulled me out of my spiraling thoughts. I yanked it out of my pocket, my heart pounding when I saw Katy’s name on the screen. A voicemail. My chest tightened as I pressed play.
