One Filthy Kiss by Vivy Skys

“Like this.”
That’s what he said before he kissed me—
in front of cameras.
In front of the world.
Giovanni Sabatelli doesn’t repeat himself.
Billionaire studio owner. Mafia heir. A man who doesn’t lose what he wants.
He wasn’t supposed to notice me.
Until his actors couldn’t get the scene right.
So he lifted my chin with two fingers and showed them how it was done.
One kiss. One viral mistake.
Because what he doesn’t know?
I’ve spent five years hiding my little sister from a man powerful enough to burn cities to drag us back.
So I grabbed her—and ran.
We almost made it.
Until the car slammed to a stop.
And Giovanni Sabatelli sprawled across the hood like he owned the street.
Not angry. Not apologetic.
Possessive.
If he could find me that fast, the monster hunting us can too.
And when he learns the truth?
He declares war.
For one reckless moment, I believe he can protect us.
Until I reach into my purse in Central Park—
And find the note waiting for me.
I’M WATCHING YOU.
The man hunting us didn’t come to threaten.
He came to take what’s his.
Giovanni isn’t just fighting for control anymore.
He’s fighting for me.
By the time he understands what that costs him—
it’s too late.
