My Tenant is a Mafia Prince
An aspiring journalist with a strong sense of justice.
A reluctant mafia heir.
And a mystery box that binds them.
Twenty years ago, Nicolette Meyers witnessed the brutality of the Sticks mafia family. Twenty years later, she made it her mission to bring them down using her pen name ‘Nico Sticks’. Unfortunately, her editor stole her idea and took all the benefits before firing her. And her only consolation was a mystery box from a fan. When a blind, homeless man offered her bank cards in exchange of being her tenant, she accepted the offer not realizing he is the real ‘Nico Sticks’ – the newly-crowned heir of the Sticks family.
Steffan Miller was a loyal foot soldier for the mafia until he was appointed to become the head. When his box was stolen and was sent to Nicolette, he pretended to be homeless to search for it. When the police force learned the name of the new mafia leader, it became a cat and mouse chase between them and the police force with Nicolette becoming the perfect patsy for Steffan’s operations.
When strong attraction and forbidden emotions got mixed in the mission, does betrayal taste sweeter when it comes from the man you love?

Chapter: Chapter 30 – Confrontation, ConfirmationWhen I woke up the next day, I felt a heavy arm wrapped around my waist and last night’s events came back in a flash. After waking up in my dream, I heard Steffan checking up on me and I asked him to accompany me through the night until I fall back to sleep.I tried to lift his hand without disturbing him but he decided to pull me closer while he’s still asleep.“Let’s get married, Colette,” he suddenly whispered before opening his eyes.I know it sounds so random as if we’re just choosing between scrambled or sunny side up on our eggs for breakfast. But there’s sincerity in his tone and I know that if I said yes, we would be heading to the city hall immediately to register our marriage.I turned around to face him, searching for the right words to say, but I ended up tracing the outline of his beautiful face. Tempted to say yes, if it means I get to see it every waking day. But I need to find my voice of reason because it’s easy to get lost in this intoxicating situation.“We don’t n

Chapter: Chapter 29 – Ace’s Present“What’s that?” Steffan curiously asked when I almost jumped in surprise.“Nothing,” I said as I quickly opened his email. But there’s no other content in the email. Just a flirty, eye-catching subject and a drone.The drone?The one I won yesterday as a bribe from the military? How did he put a memory card in it? Maybe ‘how’ is immaterial, but when? I have a lot of questions but first things first, I need to check if my drone really has a memory card in it.“Steffan, did someone dropped by this afternoon while I was out?” I asked when I found a memory card in the drone just like how Ace mentioned it.“No. I was alone the whole time expect for the delivery girl when I asked Officer Johnny to send us food,” he recalled.“Did you let her in?”“No, I asked her to leave the food outside. Is something wrong?” he asked with worry.I knew it was a memory card from Ace because it’s an old memory card with a small capacity. I could feel my hands shaking and heart pounding as I insert the card i

Chapter: Chapter 28 – Problem Solved“What are you doing here?” Dean asked as I continue to walk in his living room. I took out my phone to record his response as I planned on interrogating him when I heard a familiar voice coming from the bedroom.“Yoohoo, where is my baby Dean. Is it hide and seek time, my baby?” the ‘gu-gu-ga-ga’ voice said while a pink feather boa slowly appeared from the hallway. Twirling, teasing, before the body in a see-through pink lace lingerie appeared.Blaarrhhhh!I don’t know which one should I pity more, my eyes or my phone’s camera. I was too stunned to stop recording and it captured all the pink-kink between them. When my previous editor, Ara, saw me with my phone out, she flew into a rage and dashed towards me to grab my phone. But before she could reach me, I threatened her to post it to social media and that immediately calmed her down.“Colette, I know you hate me. But we can talk about it, right? Do you want to come back? I will sign you right here and now. Do you want to continue th

Chapter: Chapter 27 – Fix Your Own MessArranging for Colette’s affairs have taken much of my morning and when I reached our apartment, it was almost noon. I was expecting her fuming at home because of the bad reviews but I found the living room dark with the blackout curtains drawn.I let the door open allowing the natural light to seep inside but the image that greeted me etched deep in my soul. I found her lying on the couch, letting out soft sobs, too tired to even move. I have heard screams of anger, or cries of anguish but nothing could prepare me to hear her soft sobs of surrender. That and the pill bottles on the centre table answered my question before. How could she grow up fine after surviving everything she experienced? And the answer is staring at me right in the face. In the form of orange bottles.“Hey,” she greeted weakly as she tries to hide the bottles in a bag.I sat beside her not saying a word just observing what she’s doing. Just as she finished packing, I pulled her weightless body and sat her on my l

Chapter: Chapter 26 – Doubts in LeadershipI couldn’t contain my excitement when Colette shielded me from those brats. The way she claimed me, ‘every time of every day’, tickled something inside and I must admit I liked it. But when she said it’s just to rescue me, I was so annoyed that I decided to spend the weekend at the mansion instead.But as soon as I arrived, I found the senior members already having their coffee. At 5 o’clock in the morning? Did they start early or the meeting isn’t finished yet? But I’m the head, I should know if there’s any emergency meeting. “Ah, how nice of you to visit,” Cane welcomed with his usual sarcasm.“What is this about?” I asked.“The senior members raised a valid concern and I’m just making sure that they are heard in your absence,” he replied.“Let’s hear it, shall we?” I urged in an impatient tone as I slowly looked at them one by one. The atmosphere turned tense and the temperature, cold, and I watched every subtle sign of uneasiness from them. And they should, because to be honest,

Chapter: Chapter 25 – Bad ReputationIf I’m hesitating before, now I’m convinced that I cannot write about the budget discrepancy carelessly. Not when they’re threatening Steffan. Poor Steffan, always getting in trouble because of his association with me. I finally realized what he meant when he told me I shouldn’t be at the expo. Maybe he found something troubling and he knew I wouldn’t let it go if I found out.“Thanks for waiting,” I heard Steffan’s voice and I was flooded with relief. I thought he was already kidnapped by those ladies and wouldn’t come home to me anymore. And that thought was enough for me to wrap my arms around him while burying my head on his chest.“Thank you, Steffan,” I said in a mumbled voice. He was surprised by my action but we stayed in that position until we heard a familiar voice.“Try to lessen the PDA, lovebirds. Parking lot is still a public area,” Alex reminded before walking past us to

Chapter: CHAPTER 104 - Erase the Whole FamilyThe guards immediately secured Harley and Meredith and the whole household was turned upside down.When Amanda opened her eyes, her arms felt numb.There was an IV drip attached to her left arm.She tried to sit up but she felt dizzy instantly.When the door opened, John Fields came in with a food tray with a big smile on his face.“You, my lady, should eat more healthy foods.”“I heard you’ve been nibbling on bacons when you’re bored?” John smiled at her warmly.“Oh John, help me call Mark. I have something important to tell him” she said excitedly with a weak body.“John, I think Mark is Jack’s real father”“I know it’s a long shot. But it’s worth to run a test” she thought she said her words properly.Harley’s blurred words were echoing in her mind.‘Tattoo on lower abdomen’‘Jack of d

Chapter: CHAPTER 103 – He Said, She Said Round 2“They say that it’s takes a village to raise a child” General Mills said meaningfully.“It seems like you need the whole country to raise yours” he roared with gritted teeth.This is not acceptable to him.He was initially fond of Amanda and he really likes her but this action is really serious.She should not play with people’s lives no matter how repulsive they seem.“Feel free to take her” Sebastian said while scratching his head.He also doesn’t know how to save his face right now.Even though they are good friends with the Mills family, everything can be put aside if it concerns a person’s life.The old men were still bantering about Amanda’s action when they heard Mark laughing from the guest room.“I told you she’s getting bolder” he said to the old master Golding.“She’s, she’s done this before” he s

Chapter: CHAPTER 102 – Her Clever PlanThe next day Amanda woke up in a happy mood.She rang her bell and ordered the servant for her breakfast.“Get me Nellie” she said when she was greeted by a new servant.“My lady, I’m afraid Nellie won’t be able to serve you anymore” the servant said with tearful eye.“Why?” she asked in confusion.“She’s being punished my lady, in the garden” the servant could not help her tears anymore.“She will be beaten to death if she did not reveal who ordered her to assassinate young master Mills” the servant said pleadingly.“A-a-assassinate?” she said in shocked.How could it be?She only ordered Nellie to drug the young master and to sleep with him.She never ordered for an assassination.Is it possible that someone wanted to murder young master Mills?She could not be implicated, but she could not let Nellie die beca

If you want to have a child with Meredith why use other people?” she asked in disbelief.“Believe it or not, I don’t want Jack to know that he has half-siblings” Harley tried his best to show his sincerity.“Half?” she scoffed.“Why? Are your offspring only consist of upper or lower part?”“How could you call someone ‘half’?” her hatred is visible in her cold stare.“I know you don’t want to believe me. Anyway, I’m not from a rich family” he said self-deprecatingly.“But for our s

Not without me or your mom”“Whatever Harley said to you, just ignore it. Don’t let it affect you, okay?” he hugged the little guy tighter.“It’s okay, dad. I just looked at him.”“We didn’t have any resemblance at all” he said while kicking the ball up and down.“Does mommy know?” Mark doubted Amanda would agree to this meet-up.“No, she said she would stay in her room until the announcement has been cancelled”“Knowing her, she won’t come out anytime soon” he chuckled at her mom.“Jack, what does he looked like? How did you feel when you saw him?”“Were you excited?” he som

Chapter: CHAPTER 149 – Do you Trust Him?The wedding was finished in an instant followed by a sumptuous dinner. The guests all stayed for the weekend at the resort and soon it was time for the guests to leave.“Enjoy your honeymoon. But you’ll have to decide how the company will move forward given that Minerva’s position will be vacant” Linda reminded both Celine and Daniel.The mother superior could not be any happier for the two of them now. Now she only wanted for Celine to have babies so she can guide her through motherhood.“Still work, Linda?” Daniel teased.“Actually, no. I want her to enjoy her motherhood so she has to sign the formalities as soon as possible” Linda objected.“Pbbft. Motherhood will only come once she’s ready. Maybe after two years if we’re lucky” Daniel defended his wife.Linda gave Celine a knowing look and she saw Celine shrink back. Clearly, she hasn’t told Daniel about it. Anyway, it’s not her business she just have to wait for her to be ready.When all the guests have left, Daniel decided to br

Chapter: CHAPTER 148 – Exchange of VowsThe eve of the wedding ceremony arrived and Helene’s resort was livelier than usual.Although the staffs were initially told that it was a small celebration, they still decided to close it down when they found out it was Ms. Yates’ wedding. Although the resort is closed for the next few days, all the staffs were present assisting the guests making sure everyone is comfortable and enjoying their stay.The Bloom family was immediately impressed as soon as they stepped foot on the resort.They had never imagined they would see the white beach and turquoise waters that Helene fell in love with during her final days.Grandma Bloom’s eyes were teary seeing the blooming flowers.Those were Helene’s favourites.It’s feels as though Helene would appear anytime in these flower beds.Celine was observing the old couple and decided to give them a back story.“My parents fell in love in this place and this is where I was conceived as a result of their love. This holds a great deal to my mom and I

Chapter: CHAPTER 147 – The Old MansionThe old man was really grumpy.And why wouldn’t he?Celine said that the ceremony will only involve a few guests. And it would be a simple celebration. However, as soon as she started setting up her decorations, he knew it wasn’t as simple as she claimed it to be.Since he could not convince them to stop, he left the farm as soon as they started putting up the tent and only came back when he received the message that the farm is back to its previous order.He could already see their eco-friendly rating dropping from the charts. He still needed to submit reports to explain that the event did not pollute the environment.So, he is really grumpy right now. He has a lot of work to do.If the spoiled owner wanted to discuss business he needed to calm down for a day before he would be willing to negotiate.To be honest, he’s beginning to have second thoughts on selling the property to Celine. Who could guess what she’s planning to do next time?If only there’s a way to contact his master’s

Chapter: CHAPTER 146 – She Said YesEveryone kept their silence when they saw Celine followed by Daniel.If looks could kill, Daniel would have been dead by now based from the glaring stares he’s getting. Even Aaron who adored him looks at him disappointingly now.He knew he made a mistake but he can explain himself if he will be given a chance. All that matters to him now is that Celine agreed to be his wife for real. The rest will follow later on.“Let’s have dinner now. Celine is hungry” Daniel said to break the deathly glares directed at him.The rest of the group snapped out of their own worlds when they heard Celine was hungry.Sylvia immediately went to the kitchen to check on the food while Aunt Marge prepared the dining table.Celine wanted to help but everyone wanted her to rest.She thought about what happened in the afternoon and they must have felt pity for her.Her heart warms up at the special treatment she’s receiving.“Uhhmm. Daniel and I talked about what will happen tomorrow. Since we originally plann

No matter what they wanted to say, it’s all useless now.They were at this stand still when the Blooms arrived.“Ah, Daniel you came. Celine would be relieved” Dr. Bloom was filled with vigour.He never expected the wedding atmosphere to lift Grandma Bloom’s spirits.They just came from the make-shift tent where she inspected the final decorations and her eyes were dreamy.“Let’s get married again tomorrow, dear” she joked as she gave instructions to the wedding planning team.“Grandma” Daniel greeted.Grandma Bloom acknowledged his presence but turned her attention to the la

Chapter: CHAPTER 144 – Daniel ObjectedTheir reactions were not like as she has expected.“What if Daniel doesn’t want to get married?” Aunt Marge suddenly asked.She was worried that Daniel would have to give in to Celine again.For the Stevensons, they place a high value to marriage and family. Since their businesses could easily attract those unscrupulous characters, they needed the kind of security that only blood and family could provide.“Of course, Daniel will marry Celine. There’s no way that Daniel will object” Sylvia defended Celine from the Stevensons.“I understand all your concern. Of course, Daniel will have to agree this time. Anyway, I prepared the ceremony thinking that Daniel has really found a wife. It turns out, it’s only a ruse to throw off the Solomons.” Celine explained.“Daniel has already said that he will only get married because of love.
