BOUND: A Dark Bad Boy Romance

by Leah Wilde

  Vince was quiet a moment, biting down on his bottom lip and then looking up at Fiona through his thick dark eyelashes. “Yeah, I don’t think I’m feeling it yet either.” He sniffed and picked a clump of blood off his nose, tossing it to the ground.

  “Your nose…I think it’s broken,” Fiona said, whimpering softly as she carefully touched the beaten, bloody mess in the center of Vince’s face.

  “I’ll be okay,” Vince said, wincing a little as he readjusted his legs. “Today could have gone a lot worse.”

  “Oh, yeah?” Fiona said, feeling a smile flutter its way onto her face.

  “Yeah,” Vince said, helping Fiona stagger to her feet and walk back over to the town car, where the two servants were waiting for them. “I could be dealing with this alone. But I’m not. I have you.”

  Chapter Twenty-Seven

  “All right, all right, settle down,” Vince said after playing the tape recording of his mother’s confession to the room full of senior Romano family members, who were now all muttering under their breath about what they’d just heard. “So now you know. That’s why my mother fled the country.”

  “We have to find her!” one of the older men, Tommy’s younger brother, said, banging his fists down on the boardroom table. “This cannot go unpunished.”

  “It’s not,” Vince said. “She will be alone for the rest of her life, cut off from the dynasty she thinks she built. That’s more than enough punishment for her, believe me.”

  The room exploded into noise again, various members of the organization arguing with each other about the best course of action. Vince cleared his throat, and the room fell silent again, waiting on his every word. “That’s my decision. You can either honor it or get the hell out. Meeting adjourned.”

  He exited the boardroom, feeling a little high on the power that he’d so successfully exerted over the other men in the business. They respected him now. They knew he was the rightful leader, especially after they learned about Guido’s crimes.

  Fiona was waiting for him outside of the boardroom, an anxious look etched across her face. “Well?” she asked nervously in a hushed tone of voice.

  “It’s done,” Vince said, wrapping his arm around her waist and pulling her away from the boardroom door.

  “So it’s over? They’re really going to trust you as leader and….and nobody has a problem with me as your number two?” Fiona asked, scratching the side of her face.

  “First things first, you’re not my number two,” Vince said sternly, even though he regretted taking that tone when he saw how Fiona’s face fell in disappointment. “What I mean is, we’re equals. If I’m number one, you’re number one. I can’t do this without you, Fiona.”

  She brightened up then, smiling shyly at him before leaning in to kiss him deeply. “Well, as long as you’re still number one in the bedroom,” she said with a mischievous smirk.

  “Some things never change,” Vince said, rubbing the side of Fiona’s cheek gently before reaching around to spank her ass.

  Fiona squealed under her breath, looking around to make sure that nobody saw that interaction. “You know, I’m not so sure about that anymore.”

  “About what?” Vince asked, confused.

  “What you just said. About things never changing. You proved that sometimes people can surprise you.”

  “How so?” Vince asked, reaching down to take Fiona’s hand into his and lead her out of the office for their lunch break.

  “Well, for instance,” Fiona began, dropping her voice as they passed a clump of Romano employees, who all nodded in deference to the both of them, “you surrendered control. To Guido, in the woods, when you were afraid that he was going to kill me. You were willing to give up the company if it meant keeping me safe.”

  Vince was quiet a moment, letting Fiona’s words sink in. He stared at her, trying to memorize every last detail of her face, before leading her in the direction of their town car. “You know, some things are more important than power.”

  “Like what?” Fiona asked, even though the warm, triumphant look in her eyes suggested that she already knew the answer.

  “Love,” Vince said, leaning in to kiss her again. “It’s love.”

  With that, the new king and queen of the Romano family business began their reign, loving each other as fiercely as they fucked, treating each other like the master and mistress they truly were.

  Tortured by the Biker: The Bandits MC

  IT’S A FINE LINE BETWEEN PLEASURE AND PAIN.

  GAGE

  If you want justice, you call the cops.

  But if it's revenge you're after, don't dial 911.

  Call me instead.

  I crack skulls, spill blood, put bad people in the dirt where they belong.

  I work in the darkness so people like you don't have to.

  It's not an easy task, but I'm the only one cut out for it.

  Still, I can't help but wonder if it's making me a bad man.

  It's making me want things.

  Things I have no business touching.

  Like her, for instance.

  I want to ravage her.

  To break her innocence like a windowpane and cut my fingers on the shattered edges.

  It's an ugly world, and she's too perfect for it.

  It's time I taught her what I learned a long time ago:

  There's pleasure in the shadows, too.

  FIONA

  I met the Devil once.

  I was just a little girl, but he had no mercy.

  He tried very hard to hurt me.

  I was lucky, though – I got out.

  The others didn't have such good fortune.

  Since I escaped that nightmare, I've tried to put it behind me.

  To live in the light.

  Help others, do good, mend wounds.

  Stay away from the evils of the world.

  But then Gage Preston came knocking.

  He's the last man I want to see.

  Everything around him is chaos and suffering.

  But he won't take no for an answer.

  And the more time I spend around him, the more I'm coming to see the hideous truth:

  I want the pain.

  I want the darkness.

  I want him to show me what he knows.

  Ruined by the Biker: Heaven’s Outcasts MC

  I WAS PURE – UNTIL HE PUT A BABY IN MY BELLY.

  I didn't ask for this.

  Not for the heartbreak. Not for the violence.

  I certainly didn't ask to be my father's daughter.

  Rules, rules, rules – that's how he lives his life.

  I just wanted to know what freedom felt like.

  So I took a ride on the wild side.

  I went to a dangerous place, and I left with a dangerous man.

  He took me in his arms and pierced me to my core.

  Over. And over. And over again.

  I could have died happy right then and there.

  To be rocked like that – consumed, devoured – was the freedom I was looking for.

  But I got something else, too. Something I never expected.

  I got pregnant.

  Now, my world is crumbling.

  My daddy and the father of my baby are at war with each other.

  People are dying.

  Buildings are burning.

  Tears and blood are flowing like rivers.

  And in the middle of it, I'm standing here, desperate for something I never imagined:

  I'm desperate to be ruined by the biker – just one more time.

  Wed to the Biker: Hellhounds MC

  I’M STUCK AT THE ALTAR WITH MY WORST NIGHTMARE.

  All I ever wanted was to get out of this life.

  No more bikers, no more leather, no more crime.

  But being the daughter of an MC president means that trouble is never far behind.

  When I’m attacked by a mysterious man on the e
ve of my final semester in college, I know exactly where to go for answers:

  Back home to dear old Daddy.

  But going back there gives me more than I’d bargained for.

  Before I can stop it, everything is going wrong.

  Betrayal abounding.

  Enemies approaching.

  Cancer devouring my father’s body.

  And when he dies, he leaves me with one last gift…

  A marriage I never asked for.

  Now, I’m gazing through a white veil at a hulking, tattooed brute of a man.

  He looks like he wants to eat me or break me, whichever comes first.

  And yet, part of me wants him to claim every inch of my body…

  I just wanted a normal life.

  But there’s no such thing as normal when you’re wed to a biker.

  Claimed by the Biker: Forsaken Ones MC

  HE WHIPPED ME, CHAINED ME, KEPT ME, CLAIMED ME.

  It was a mistake from the beginning.

  I never should have been here.

  The stakes were too high, the penalty for failure far too steep.

  But I didn’t have a choice.

  I was a slave to my boss, and this was my golden ticket.

  A diamond worth millions.

  Shimmering, glistening, sparkling…

  In the vault of the most dangerous man in the entire city.

  I tried to use sex as a weapon, a Trojan horse to sneak my way inside.

  But Hawk Renner is no fool.

  He saw right through me.

  He let me in – and that is when everything truly began.

  He took my body to the depths of pain and the heights of pleasure.

  Showed me what he was capable of – what we were capable of.

  Time and space lost all meaning.

  There was only his touch.

  But now, a storm is brewing, tearing us apart.

  It might cost me my life,

  But there’s only one thing I know for sure:

  I can’t go back now that I’ve been claimed by the biker.

  RIDE ME: A Dark Romance

  I'm going to ride her until I have what I want.

  The look on her face when I kicked in the door was priceless.

  Another day, another time, I might've laughed.

  But not today. Not now.

  There was business to take care of.

  Ivan, my former business partner and mob boss extraordinaire, had tried to have me killed.

  I'd survived the hit, but now, there was a Russian hitman locked up in the basement of the Kings of Hell clubhouse.

  I needed someone to translate.

  That's where she came in.

  Julia Danvers, professor of Russian history and linguistics.

  At first glance, I thought she was prim, proper, a porcelain princess in an ivory tower.

  But every layer I peel away reveals something more.

  Skin I want to stroke.

  A body I want to squeeze.

  A mouth I want to force wide open while she moans beneath me.

  She doesn't belong in my world.

  She's far too fragile.

  But she’s coming with me…

  Whether she likes it or not.

  FILL ME: A Dark Romance

  He held me down and filled me with his baby.

  I’ve lived a lifetime of obedience.

  Yes, Daddy – No, Daddy – I would never disobey you, Daddy.

  Repeated it over and over again like a mantra.

  But a single night will be my undoing.

  One night of rebellion.

  One night of passion.

  One night of ecstasy.

  I snuck out and found just the man to teach me how it felt to be ravaged.

  He gave me what I wanted; he took what he wanted.

  He made me moan until my throat was raw.

  After it was over, I left the bad boy without saying goodbye.

  I intended to bury him in my past and never think of him again.

  But the baby in my belly had other ideas.

  Four months later, I cannot hide the truth.

  And when my father discovers my shameful secret,

  the outcome is worse than I ever could have imagined.

  He hunts down the man who claimed me and utters a simple threat:

  Marry my daughter, or I will destroy you.

  Now, I’m wed to a dark stranger and pregnant with his child.

  Every glance he casts in my direction fills me with fear and desire.

  I hate him – I want him – I loathe him – I love him.

  I just want this nightmare to end.
