Excerpt: 
His lips left her neck only long enough to say, “If the invisible scars he left don't disappear now, I'll keep trying again and again until they do. Soon your body will know only me.” 

Her eyes were still swollen from her previous tears, but they began to water again for a far different reason than before. She tried to pull away and hide her face from him. 

“Promise me,” she uttered. “Promise me I'll never be in the same room as him ever again.” 

His fist clenched and he had to control his anger. 

Quieter than before he whispered, “I promise.”

How I Became The Alpha Mafia Boss' Target

Sanity came back to Luca the moment he heard the voice of a beta.

He had let his alpha life seep into his work and he was disappointed in himself, but that didn't stop him from lowering the small handgun from where it was pointed at Angelo who was in the back of the closet with one of his hands up and a sneer on his face.
