-- PROLOGUE "Let me get this straight. We have nothing in between us, except for the deal we made that day" he spoke in a monotonous tone. "I am the one carrying your name behind me; we are married. how can you say we have nothing in between us? Huh" She yelled at him, tears blurred her vision, and she spoke her heart to him. "For god's sake, this marriage was to save you! Can't you get that? I did not do it willingly, I do not love you!!" He yelled back at her, shattering her heart into pieces. "Why can't you just love me?" She spoke, as she cried the tears of hurt, and pain. Her heart thumped loudly due to the shivering sensation She felt all over her body. "I never made a commitment to you, or gave you any false hope, neither did i say that i love you. Did i?" He asked her, in a very cold tone. She looked at him through her teary eyes. It's getting difficult for her to even breathe. "It was your eyes, the damn eyes. Who gave me the false hope. They say, "Eyes speak the truth," but what about mine? Couldn't you feel the sincerity within them, expressing my deep affection for you? Why didn't you see the love shining in them? Was it too complex to understand? Couldn't you notice the warmth as they gazed at you? They search for you in every corner, If only you realized how they silently echoed the emotions I couldn't articulate. They say, "Eyes never deceive." But what about yours? They played a trick on me when they met mine, painting a facade of a world that wasn't real. They made me feel loved, Leading me into a belief that crumbled, louder than your spoken promises. Why did they betray me? Was it your eyes or you that masked the truth?" He stayed still, not moving or saying anything at her statement. --

I made a horrible mistake. I agreed to marry the devil. In my defense, I did not know who I would be getting married to when I signed the contract. I assumed it would be to someone bad, but not him. Daniel Nicholas Castello, a mafia don and my ex-boyfriend. To everyone, he is a gorgeous, charismatic billionaire. Even to those who know him as don, he is perfect. But for me, he is the destruction personified. He has broken me before and he will do it again. Only this time, he won't even stop when he breaks me. Because this time, he won't let me leave. But that does not mean I won't try- even if it's the last thing I do. - "There are some things you have to know now since you are betrothed to me and I have the right to protect you from anyone by any means necessary now." I narrow my eyes at him. "What do you mean by 'any means necessary?" He looks at me, cold and impassive as ever. "You will find out soon enough." "If I stay long enough to find out," I mutter, getting up from the bed and away from him. He doesn't let me get far, though. He grabs my hair and pulls it just enough so I fall back down on the bed. He rolls over, so I am trapped underneath him. I look at his darkened, trying to keep my face expressionless. His anger does not surprise me. I feel like he has only two personality settings now- angry or emotionless. I still don't know which one I prefer. "Do you really think there is a way out of this now? You are mine now, and no one can change that- not even you." - Sequel to Falling for The Devil.
