CHAPTER 14

NIKO

My fingers tingle as I lead Gianna through the house, but it’s pure excitement and adrenaline. I already set up our wedding for tomorrow with DiMarco, who doesn’t know who I’m marrying, just that only he will know the identity of my bride, and if anyone else catches wind, he’ll promptly die.

The old priest was a close confidant of my father’s, and I trust him to be smart enough not to earn himself a bullet, but that’s the only way I trust him. He’s trying to work his way into my inner circle, and I can understand that from a pragmatic point of view, but I still don’t trust it.

With Gianna as my wife, the secret will be out eventually, but it just has not yet been revealed. When I present her as my queen, it will be the trump card I need to officially claim the Gemelli territory. Things with Domalachego will likely still get bloody, but people will fall in line.

I want her to be my wife so desperately I scarcely dare to hope she won’t change her mind. I could force her anyway, and I just might, but her marrying me willingly is too enticing to give up on easily.

We’re nearly to my bedroom when I speak. “So you’re quite serious you won’t marry me tomorrow if I fuck you tonight?”

“Quite,” she agrees, raising her brow in challenge.

“That’s fine. I have other plans for you.”

I open the door to my bedroom and lead her inside for the first time. The walls are a deep green, the furniture all rich black wood. Everything is in perfect, immaculate order, just the way I like it. Her pretty eyes survey my domain, and I’m not sure what she thinks.

“Will I sleep in here with you after tomorrow night, or are we keeping separate bedrooms like Victorian aristocracy?”

“You can sleep wherever you like after tomorrow night, but I’d like you to stay with me.”

“Would you? Even if I make a mess?” she challenges with a hand on her hip and a slender black eyebrow raised. I imagine her making a very wet mess with her sweet little cunt.

“Yes, though I’d prefer you didn’t do so intentionally.” I know she’s been playing up the messes she leaves in the kitchen.

“Hire a housekeeper.”

“I prefer not having anyone in my space.” That’s incredibly true. It’s a major inconvenience to organize the household myself when I’m this busy, but having people near my things makes my skin crawl.

“But you’d like me in here?”

“You’re not just anyone.” She’s fucking everything.

I head to my dresser and grab all the things I got for her while we weren’t speaking. I admit I was in a mood when I bought the selection of leather cuffs and leashes. It was after I put that collar on her neck and realized she wasn’t going to love me the way I wanted. She accused me of trying to humiliate her. I wanted to live up to the role of the awful villain she’d cast me in.
