The Consequential Bride Of the Mafia Lord
"I'm not going to marry you, and that's final"
His gaze darkened, causing my heart to plummet deep down my stomach.
"I don't particularly care what you want, Marcelina," he said flatly. "You walked away carrying something that belongs to me. That makes you mine until I decide otherwise."

Marcelina never wanted love or marriage.
She wanted a baby.
After watching her mother disappear piece by piece to a hereditary neurological disorder, she makes a desperate decision. She will have a child before the illness can claim her too.
But she will not pass the disorder on.
So, she chooses the perfect genetic candidate.
Domenico Vitali.
Powerful. Untouchable. Dangerous.
He was not a man people asked for favors. He was the kind of man they stole from... and prayed they survived.
A man Marcelina believed she could use and never see again.
One night. One calculated risk.
But she was wrong.
Because men like Domenico don't just disappear.
When he discovers the truth, he calls the shots.
"This ends one way," he tells her. "We're getting married."
The longer they are bound together, the more dangerous the truth becomes.
Domenico Vitali is not who she thought he was. And as secrets begin to surface, Marcelina starts to question everything.
Did she truly trap a devil?
Or did she step into a war she never saw coming?

Chapter: Chapter 5Marcelina's POVCorey studied my face. "That sounds messy."No, it wasn't. But even as I wanted to say that, my throat suddenly felt tight."So... this patient..." Corey stared at me like I'd just confessed to robbing a bank. "Let's get this straight.""He gave me my baby," I admitted quietly. "It wasn't planned like a romance. No dinners, no flirting, no build-up. He didn't know about the baby part. He thought it was just... sex."She said nothing at first.She only whistled, smiled, and shook her head. But then, she asked. "Do you... feel guilty?"The question surprised me.I thought about it. About his face, his voice, the way he looked at me like he saw more than I wanted him to. Of course, I felt guilty. But it couldn't erase what had already happened."I feel relieved," I said instead.For a second, she said nothing. Then, "Do I know this man?""He's well known," I mean, who didn't know Dom Vitali?"Damn," she said, her grin turning wicked. "You really went all out and got your

Chapter: Chapter 4Marcelina's POV Inside my head, I was doing something very close to a victory dance.No, scratch that, it was a full celebration. Confetti, music, fireworks. The kind of ridiculous happiness I had not let myself feel in years.I was finally getting my child.A baby. Mine.I did not care if it was a boy or a girl. I did not care if they had his dark gray eyes or my stubborn mouth. I would love them anyway. I would love them completely. I was already thinking of names, too many names. Lily, Adrian, Bloom, Tristan. I filed them away carefully, like precious little things I needed to take very good care of later.I was so lost in it that I did not notice the tears. Not until his voice cut through my thoughts."If you're planning on crushing my waist, you might want to be ready for another round of evaluation."Reality snapped back into place.Oh.My legs.They were still locked tight around him.Heat rushed to my face as I quickly unwrapped myself, nearly tripping in the process. "Oh G

Chapter: Chapter 3Marcelina's POV The sound of his voice sent a shiver through me. It was low and rough, like a warning wrapped in temptation, like something that knew exactly how much damage it could do and didn't care."You say that like you were expecting me.""I was," he replied simply.That should have scared me. It did scare me. But it also sent a slow shiver through my spine especially when he turned us smoothly, guiding me backward until the edge of the table pressed into my lower back.He stepped in close, his body blocking every exit. With one hand braced on the table beside my hip, the other rested at my waist like a warning."No one walks into my office without an appointment, Doc," he said quietly, dangerously. "And no one barges in like you just did."My heart was beating so hard I was sure he could feel it. I swallowed, my throat suddenly dry, and my hands hanging uselessly at my sides. I should have thought this through. I should have known this would not unfold like the movies, where

Chapter: Chapter 2Marcelina's POV The moment the door closed behind me, I broke. Thankfully, the hallway was empty and quiet, but I barely noticed anything else as I walked down fast, wiping my cheeks with the back of my hand like that would fix it. But it didn't. And the tears didn't stop either. "Get it together, Marcel," I muttered under my breath, swiping angrily at my face again.My chest felt too tight, like I had been holding my breath for weeks without realizing it. And I hated myself for it. I hated that I had just lost one chance I had allowed myself to imagine.I wasn't like this.I didn't fall apart in hallways or cry at all—not anymore. But here I was, stopping right in the middle of the hallway because I couldn't bring myself to walk anymore.Pressing my palm against the cool wall, I bent my head and drew in a slow breath. Then another. I counted them like I always did years ago. "Four in, hold, four out." And just like that, I was sixteen again.My mother had been brilliant.That was

Chapter: Chapter 1Marcelina's POVDom Vitali was going to be the man to give me my baby.The thought landed in my head fully formed and terrifying, like a diagnosis you do not want but already understand. It did not come with emotions like lust or desire. It came with certainty, and that scared me more than guilt ever could.I glanced at the tablet in my hand, even though I’ve already memorized every line of his report. This appointment was a follow-up, and unfortunately, it was the last. The foundation was laid during the first meeting weeks ago, involving baseline scans, cognitive testing, and reaction time assessments amongst many others. Today was supposed to be another routine.But it wasn't."Let's continue," I said, tapping my tablet to wake the screen. "Have the headaches increased since our last session?""Same,""Frequency?""Does it matter?"There we go again.I forced my face into something neutral and looked up at him. "Yes,""Then no,"I made a note anyway. He always did that. Like this
