Chapter 25

~DANTE~

FUCK!

Things were going really good until fuċkɨnġ Ben Chadwick entered the picture.

I rubbed my hand over my face before bending over the sink and splashing some water onto it. There was no choice left now, I had to move onto Plan B and force Kyomi to marry me.

I already knew the perfect place to set everything up, I just had to think of a way to get her to come with me. Once all that was settled I'd have one of my brothers tip off a reporter, within a day news of our affair should be all over town.

As I made my way to the dining table, I found my entire family already seated at the table.

"Hi mom." I greeted her as I reached forward to kiss her cheek.

"You look like a mess." My younger sister Violetta commented as she studied me.

"It's father's new ȧssignment." Fabio announced with a grin. "He's having problems getting Kyomi to fall for his charms."

"Kyomi Palmer?" My other sister, Emma asked in shock. "Papa, surely it isn't a Palmer?" She asked again as she turned to my father.

He cleared his throat in response as he turned his fierce gaze on me. "How is everything coming along."

I clenched my jaw, knowing very well that he wouldn't like what I was about to say.

"I've gotten word that Dominic is preparing to get Kyomi married to Ben Chadwick."

"What?" My father roared as he slammed his fist against the table causing my sisters to jump. "I told you how important this is, yet you wait for something like this to happen?"

"All is not lost father, I already have a plan and I ȧssure you it would work. Kyomi will be your daughter in law, I promise you that."

And it was a promise I intended to keep.

She was going to be mine and no one would possibly be able to take her from me! I would make sure of it.
