Read Bella #1 (Sagatori Family Saga #1) for Free Online

of the papers that I'd come here for. I coul d’ ve sent Mickie alone or Anthony, but I wanted to see this fucker up-close and personal. H e’ d caused a lot of problems for business and for me .
    He flipped through the papers, one by one and yawned as he handed them to me. So fuckin' disrespectful.
    “ You and Bella Sagatori ? ” I had the sudden urge to rip him over the desk and stab him in the throat.
    “ What ? ” His eyes continued to review goingover the documents I’ ve paid for.
    “ Bella Sagatori . ”
    His head raised holding a glare .“ What the fuck is it to you ? ” And it all becomes clear to me. This asshole has a hairy trigger. H e’ d been in trouble for the last few months with a few of the men under my rule and now he was barking at me.
    My eyebrows rise. I stood erect with my hand pressed to my gun. My eyes bore into his before he could stand from his faux leather chair. I laughed to myself. Did he think all of this convinced people h e’ s a boss? Capo? H e’ s a small boy living in a ma n’ s world. I did n’ t care if he was crazy because I was crazier.
    His eyes wondered to his left, seeing the picture I’ d been referring to .“ W e’ re promised to each other . ” He remained seated in his chair.
    I nodded. Well this my change things up. “ So, yo u’ re planning on marrying her ? ” I growled
    He lay the papers down on his glass desk, running his hands through his hair. Tha t’ s when I saw the scratch marks on his neck.
    I’ m the boss of the Chicago outfit and must consider the famiglia and men when I react, but all I saw was red. Fucking red. I rounded the desk with deadly silence, I gripped the asshole by the throat, I lifted him off of his feet .“ You ever disrespect me with that mouth again, I’ ll tie it shut. You disrespect me with those hands and I’ ll cut them off. You understandi n ’ where I’ m going with this ? ” I'd work my way to every part of his body until he was a bloody unidentifiable blob.
    “ Looks like someone else already had a piece of you . ” I laughe d“ Looks like it hurts . ” I grinned, digging my fingers harder into his throat. The bastard deserved a lot worse.
    He nodded and I released him, I straitened my sui t“ My apologies Mr. Moretti. I meant no disrespect . ”
    His hand drew to his neck, his eyes became dark .“ What can I say? Sh e’ s a wild one . ”
    “ Bella ? ”
    “ Yeah, she was here just a few hours ago . ” He cleared his throat.
    “ And she did that ? ” My thoughts traveled to her in the car. Her fingernails were covered in blood and she was on the other side of this property. He just confirmed that sh e’ d been here. She was running from him .
    I cleared my throat as I wondered if her father knew this. My face fell flat with anger.
    I felt my facial expression contort .“ As always i t’ s been a pleasure . ” He rounded the desk .“I’ ll walk you out . ”
    I nodded as I adjusted my cuffs.
    I followed Casconi, I slipped my hand behind my jacket gripping the cold metal. I could do this quick, right in the temple. We were at the door in a few seconds and I choose to save it for another day as I stepped out into the cold.
    I wondered why Bella had been running and why she woul d’ ve scratched him. I do n’ t know her and I knew that I shouldn't even consider getting involved. I’ m intrigued, though. He pretty much said sh e’ d been spoken for so, I guess it'd be moot point. Salvatore Casconi deserved what he had coming. When he's finally taken out i t’ ll be sweet revenge.
    When I slipped into the limo I was ready to get this day over with. I t’ d been interesting that was for sure. The car drove away from Cascon i’ s house towards downtown Detroit.

Bella
      I woke to an ice-frozen window I’ d fallen asleep against. The sun was shining brightly and I watched as the snowflake shaped ice melted away piece by piece from the warmth of the sun.
    My head followed to the alarm
