Bound by Hatred (Born in Blood Mafia Chronicles #3)

by Cora Reilly

Luca wouldn’t dishonor Aria.

BUt he did?!?!?

“You look gorgeous, Gianna. The pissed-off look goes really well with your dress.”

He was annoying and arrogant and never knew when to shut up. He’s like you.

“I can’t fucking believe you got more action than me on my own fucking wedding night,” Luca muttered.

Made Men would always kill, always cheat, always ruin anything they touched.

He was marrying me to prove a point: that he got whatever he wanted,

Lily must have managed to get over her anxiety around Romero at some point. Puppy love turned you blind.

“Aria is my wife. It’s none of your business how I deal with her.

Slayyy period go off

why was I suddenly missing the things I’d despised?

sometimes I almost forgot that I wasn’t who I pretended to be.

I hated what she’d done to her hair.

Nobody cares fk off mateo

“Did Matteo do something?” “Matteo didn’t do anything,” Matteo said in a hard voice, making Aria and me both jump.

Hahahah

Matteo said. “What? I—” I blurted but Father’s slap silenced me again. It was harder than before and his ring caught my lower lip.

Why am i cryinggg poor gianna

I couldn’t wait to lay claim to every inch of her body.

Ew he keeps saying this i fkn hate him

She should be grateful I wanted her as much as I did. Her stupid actions could have cost her everything. She could at least pretend to be grateful.

I- he has a point? But still fk matteo

How many more guys had seen her naked? Had been in her?

Boy bye ur so dumb

Nobody had ever looked at me like that, like I was the only source of water in a time of drought.

You owe it to Sid.

If she talks about sid ONE more damn time.

this playful side? That scared me because he seemed likeable, even loveable.

He looked like this was the easiest thing in the world for him, being buried deep inside of me, and having a chat.

I hated that he wasn’t acting like a total asshole, hated that hating him wasn’t as easy as I’d thought.

I tried to slap him but he caught my wrist and actually kissed my palm with a self-satisfied grin.

Your sister has warmed his cold heart. You Scuderi women have a talent for it.”

“You are such a romantic, Gianna. Your words always warm my heart.” “Oh shut up,” she muttered.

His touch was so gentle, it made me want to nuzzle my face against his neck and have a good cry.

Maybe admitting that I liked her red hair was already enough to make her want to stay a brunette forever.

“No, that would be boring. The things coming out of your mouth are more entertaining than you think.”

Did she really think I gave a damn? I’d never wanted to be part of this world, that was why I had run away.

Pop off lol

“You killed him?” I raised my arms. “Why did it have to be me?” It was a rhetorical question. It was almost always me doing the killing at improper times. “Because you’re the crazy one,”

Haha

Matteo’s expression said he didn’t give a fuck about that, and it was pretty much what I’d expected.

Love means seeing someone at their worst and still seeing the good in them, love means someone is perfect for you despite their imperfections.”

“I’d do it for you. You are my wife and I want to make you happy.”

It’s like God’s sent you two to me to test my patience.” Aria giggled and hit Luca’s shoulder lightly, but her eyes were sparkling with adoration.

Hehehehehe

I was too selfish and possessive. I didn’t want to lose her, even if that was what was best for her.

“I’m not tired of her. I actually like Gianna’s obnoxious personality. She spices things up. Life would be boring if she were like the other trophy wives.”

Period as you should

I don’t care if she’s fucking unhappy and if she hates you, she’ll just have to deal.” “Wow, you’re full of sunshine and rainbows today, aren’t you?”

Real

“You can’t compare Aria to Gianna. They are like two different species. And I trust Aria absolutely. She caught a fucking bullet for me.” “Must be nice,” I muttered. “Gianna would probably applaud my shooter.”

I should hate him. I should hate what he was and what it meant for me. I should that he couldn’t give me up no matter how often I pushed him away. Why couldn’t he give up?

“I don’t want to love you,” I whispered as I jerked to a halt, clenching my eyes shut. But I did. I did love Matteo.

“Aria wouldn’t need bribing to save my fucking life.”

Oof...

Almost getting killed and having your wife leave your sorry ass obviously isn’t enough.”

Lucas so brutal oml LMAO

Was I such a horrible bitch that people thought I’d be happy that someone was seriously injured?

Yes

I wasn’t going to open my fucking heart to her and risk her stomping on it. I knew what I was feeling, had known it for a long time but I’d never said it to her.

“I love you, Gianna. I’ve fucking loved you for a long time.”

Matteo gave my butt a firm pat, his grin turning annoyingly smug. “I feel very well rested.”

Hahahah bro this man

Aria sank down on the edge of the bathtub. “Are you sure you can do the same? Accept all of him, even the bad?”

Shes literaly the best sister ever

It had taken a long time but I realized I could feel free, be free, even when I was bound to Matteo.

“What are you two gossiping about?” “You,” Luca and I said at the same time. “Is that so?” Matteo lifted one eyebrow.
