Chapter: Chapter 50Unspoken Truths - Chapter 50SareenaThree months since we got back from Vegas, and the nightmares still come, but they don’t own me anymore. Not with Damian beside me, and not with my therapist’s voice reminding me that I survived. Reminding me I’m not defined by what was done to me.I work at a free clinic in the Village now. It’s not glamorous, and most days it leaves me drained, but sometimes, when the patient looks at me like I’m the only lifeline they have, I feel something stronger than exhaustion. I feel steady. Rooted.Most nights I stay at Damian’s apartment. It’s closer to work than Nono’s house. I know Nono hates it, and he scolds me like I’m sixteen again, muttering that Morelli girls sleep at home with their families, not in a boyfriend’s bed, but I don’t care. He always threatens to call Father Roscelli, bragging about how he and Alexandra were married within twenty-four hours. He shakes his head and says I am ruining his reputation with the Familia.I usually just kis

Chapter: Chapter 49Unspoken Truths - Chapter 49SophiaI hear the bathroom door close, and the shower starting a minute later. The sharp, steady water hitting tile.I still didn’t move, just kept my eyes closed, body still, breath shallow. I didn’t want Matteo to know I’m awake. Not yet. Not like this. I still needed time to process everything his father just said to him. I heard everything, and it made me feel a little better about my decision.He said almost the same things to me, last night, when I accepted his offer. I came back with him willingly.“Get up, Sophia,” Miguel says from the side of the bed.I blink, turning my head just slightly. He’s standing at the edge, looking down at me; not with the cold calculation I’m used to from men in our world, but with something else. Something soft.“I promised you; I’ll keep you safe,” he says. “And I’ll make sure my son treats you well and earns your love.”My chest tightens. No one has ever been this nice to me. “He needs someone strong and resi

Chapter: Chapter 48Unspoken Truths - Chapter 48GinoI never drive myself anymore. I haven’t touched a steering wheel in years. Age and caution taught me it’s safer to let a driver take me where I need to go. But tonight, I didn’t wake him. I couldn’t sit in the backseat like a king on a throne while my insides crumbled. I needed to move. Feel the wheel in my hands. Remind myself I still had control over something, even if it was just a car.The streets tonight, were quiet. Tension hung in the air, thick enough to choke on. I kept one hand wrapped around the steering wheel, the other gripping my phone, hoping it doesn’t ring again. The warehouse hospital loomed ahead, its broken lights flickering weakly. It looked more like a graveyard than a place of healing. Shadows stretched long across the pavement. A bad omen, if I ever saw one.I parked off to the side, killed the engine, and just stared at the entrance. For a long moment, I didn’t move, letting the silence settle over me, pressing against my

Chapter: Chapter 47Unspoken Truths - Chapter 47SophiaIce-cold water hit me with a violent, brain-splitting shock, tearing me out of whatever hazy void I had fallen into. My back hit something hard. Water splashed, stinging my eyes and skin like a thousand needles. I gasped, coughing, flailing against the chill.“Welcome back, Ms. Morelli,” a deep voice said dryly, as a towel smacked me in the face.I blinked hard, trying to focus through the blur of cold and confusion. The man was already turning away, his voice clipped and cold. “Get dressed. We have somewhere to go.”What the hell?I scrambled out of the tub, heart pounding, limbs shaky. My head spun. The tiles under my feet, the air in the room, even the way the light hit the sink felt wrong. Wrapping the towel tightly around myself, I stumbled to the door.“Get dressed,” the man barked again. He stood near the window like a statue carved from steel. “All the clothes in the closet are yours. Hurry.”I didn’t ask questions. His tone didn’t allow it.

Chapter: Chapter 46Unspoken Truths - Chapter 46DamianAlexxa’s Scotch Bar was all chrome and noise, just like everything else in this city, trying to be upscale. Lessia called this one of the best. She needs to get back to New York, where real scotch bars don’t blast EDM or serve whiskey with LED lights like some frat-boy science experiment.I wasn’t in the mood for the loud music, the girls who kept trying to flirt with us, or even the overpriced scotches. We were just here to blend in, and watch, to make sure our girls got home safely.Vincent sat to my right, back rigid, eyes tracking every face that passed our table, and Matt leaned back in his chair trying to flirt with the ladies at the table behind him. I gave him a confused look. The ladies weren’t of his usual preference.Noticing my facial expression, he leaned in and said, “If you put me in makeup that makes me look 10 years older, I am going to hit on the cougars.”We all laughed, even though we know we shouldn’t draw attention to ourselv

Chapter: Chapter 45Unspoken Truths - Chapter 45SophiaI still don’t understand what’s happening to me. First, I was mad at everyone. Now, I hate myself for not realizing I pushed them all away. I always hated Sareena. I wanted nothing more than to destroy her. And now… now my heart feels like it’s breaking, shattering into pieces. How could that fucker do this to her? I don’t want anything to happen to her; just want her back. That realization snaps something in me.I get up and excuse myself from the room. No one notices. Everyone’s still processing what they just heard. I go to the bathroom, shut the door, turn on the faucet, and let the water run. That’s when I let my tears fall.I’ve spent so much of my life trying to ruin Sareena. Never once did I take responsibility for what I did. But now… I see it. She tried to rescue me, even when she left. She outed Riccardo, told everyone who would listen what he was doing to us. But his poison was already in me. I lied for him and kept his secrets.

Unspoken Promises
When Damian Bernardi, heir to one of America’s most ruthless crime families, is forced into an arranged marriage with Sophia Morelli, he believes his greatest problem is escaping a wedding he never wanted.

What begins as a broken engagement spirals into a war of reputations, betrayals, and blackmail. Sareena’s return drags her back into a world of secrets she swore to leave behind, and Damian is pulled into a love that could ruin them both. In the Mafia, nothing stays hidden forever. Every lie demands proof, every betrayal demands blood, and every truth comes with a cost.

Chapter: Chapter 40Sareena“Yes! Yes, I will marry you!” I scream as he slips the ring onto my finger. It fits perfectly. I try to jump into his arms, wanting to close the gap between us, but he doesn’t let me move. Instead, he does something I hadn’t expected. He reaches for the small package he brought into the room earlier and hands it to me. “Baby, I can’t believe I’m saying this to the most beautiful woman in the world, but can you please put these on?” he says with a smirk.Curious, I tear open the package, only to find my white G-string. I blink, confused. “What…?”He leans back on the bed, closely watching me with that maddeningly confident look. “The first time I met you at the airport, you dropped these in front of me by accident,” he says. “I picked them up, but I was so enticed by you, I couldn’t even get my words together when I handed them back. I stuttered like an idiot.”He lifts my chin, locking eyes with me. “The second time I saw them was when I stayed at your house, after both

Chapter: Chapter 39SareenaDamian picked me up and carried me to the back room, his grip firm but gentle. His eagerness mirrored mine, but there was something else, an uncertainty I couldn’t quite place. I wanted to feel him: his body against mine, his lips, his tongue. But a knot tightened in my stomach. It wasn’t the act itself that scared me; it was the vulnerability. Would I be enough for him?He kicked open the door and set me down, his eyes flicking over me as he turned to lock it behind him. When he faced me again, his gaze softened, searching mine. I knew he could see it, my internal struggle, and the hesitation.“Sareena, what’s going on?” His voice was gentle but firm. “I can see you’re fighting something. Whatever it is, you don’t have to hide it from me. We’re going to be partners in life, so just tell me.”I swallowed hard, my chest tightening.“If you’re thinking about what you just watched in that porn; that isn’t real. I would never force you to do anything you’re not ready for. Trust m

Chapter: Chapter 38SareenaWe boarded the private jet just after six in the morning. I felt a swirl of excitement mixed with nervous tension deep in my chest. This time, going home wasn’t about hiding from Riccardo or my sister anymore. This time is supposed to be different. I’m going to be free. Finally free to live my life on my own terms.The flight began smoothly. Being on a private plane meant we skipped the usual security lines, which was a relief. As we lifted off and reached cruising altitude, the low, steady hum of the engines became oddly soothing. It helped ease some of the chaos swirling inside me.I slipped one earbud into my ear and handed the other one over to Damian, who accepted it with a small, quiet smile before doing the same.He sat across from me, Matthew beside him. The two of them were fully engrossed in a lively discussion about the upcoming Giants season, barely noticing I existed. For once, I was grateful for the space their conversation gave me. The space to think,

Chapter: Chapter 37SareenaIt took me a while to steady my breathing. I couldn’t believe what I’d just done, I just grabbed Damian and kissed him. A real, deep kiss.We were still wrapped in each other’s arms when someone began pounding on the bathroom door. “Yo, you guys okay in there? There’s a line of some absolutely gorgeous women out here who actually need to use the restroom,” Matt called from the other side.We laughed, but before I could open the door, Damian pulled me in for one more lingering kiss. When we finally stepped out, I noticed that Matthew hadn’t been exaggerating. Four young women stood in line, but judging by the way they were eyeing him, I had a feeling they weren’t just there to use the toilet.“All good?” he asked, giving me a once-over before smirking. “I can always tell when someone has been fucking in the bathroom. It’s my superpower. Not to mention the messy hair and the dazed expression; it’s a dead giveaway.”“Matt,” Damian growled.“All right, all right! What happe

Chapter: Chapter 36Dr. Cameron JamesI was watching her stumble toward the loo when this massive, broad-shouldered bloke strode up to my table and sat down without so much as a word.“So, you like drugging girls so they’ll sleep with you, do you?” His voice was calm but thick with disgust. “You’d think a decent-looking doctor could get all the pussy he wants without slipping something into their drinks.”Oh, bloody brilliant. Another fucking Yank.“I hear you like to drug women and fuck them in disgusting places without using protection,” he added quietly. “Then you walk away pretending you don’t even know them,”“Sorry, do I know you?” I asked, barely glancing at him. My attention was still fixed on the entrance to the toilets. “And how exactly would you know anything about me?”“I told him,” said the waitress, stepping forward. “The same way I told your wife.”Dread washed over me in heavy waves. I slowly turned my head, and there she was. My wife, Adrianne. Her arms were crossed tightly, her mou

Chapter: Chapter 35Sareena aka ChristinaMy head was swimming, and my limbs felt heavy, as I made my way to the bathrooms. I felt like I was already drunk; but I’d only had one glass of wine. Something definitely wasn’t right. I pushed open the bathroom door, desperate to splash cold water on my face, when suddenly, strong hands shove me from behind. I gasped, stumbling forward, lightly hitting the wall.The door clicked shut and locked behind me, and a firm grip on my arm yanked me toward the counter and mirror. My vision cleared just enough to recognize him, through the mirror. Damian. It really was him. I tried to move, but his hands still gripped my arms, holding me in place. His jaw was clenched, his eyes burning with something dark. Something dangerous.“You,” I whispered, trying to fight the haze. “Damian… I’m so glad you’re here.”I tried to reach for him, to throw my arms around him, but he didn’t let me go. Instead, he shoved my hips against the counter. His chest pressed into my

Chapter: EpilogueEpilogueSareena - One Year LaterThe air in the maternity room smelled like flowers and baby powder, and I couldn’t help but soak it all in.I had just helped with Gabriella’s delivery. She just gave birth to my god-son; the most beautiful baby boy I’d ever seen. He has thick dark hair, pouty lips, and a strong little cry that already sounded like he’d be giving orders by kindergarten.Maximus had cried, when he first held his son. Like, actual tears. And for once, no one gave him hell for being emotional.Gabby was glowing when we finally got her settled in her room—and the second I opened the door, everyone piled in. I gave hugs to Mia, Luca, Julia, Mario, Max, and Mrs. Nazzaro. Saving the longest hug for Vincent.He’s doing so much better. He’s back to his normal carefree fun loving self, but it took months of secret counseling. He actually told his family he was hanging out with us, when he was getting the help he needed. I’m just thankful to have my friend back.I promised Gabby

Chapter: Chapter 33Unspoken Desires - Chapter 33Gabriella“Mia cara,” Zia said gently through the phone, her voice laced with worry. “Your Zio and your father are both going crazy. Please, come home soon. We can all sit down together and discuss this calmly. Darius is a very nice man. He’s handsome and respectful. You could just meet him.”I swallowed hard, staring out the sitting room window, my pulse thudding in my ears.“Zia,” I said, trying to keep my voice steady, “I’m sorry I took off the way I did… but I won’t let them hurt Max. And I am not meeting or marrying Darius. So stop calling me.”I ended the call before she could respond and let the phone drop onto the couch beside me. My hands were trembling. Whether from anger or fear, I didn’t know anymore.I couldn’t let Dad or Zio hurt Max. Or worse, kill him—just because I fell in love with him.I was about to go find him when Vincent walked in.He looked like hell. His eyes were hollow and distant, his skin pale.

Chapter: Chapter 32Unspoken Desires - Chapter 32DamianLessia was dead.Matt and I both knew sending Vincent to protect her was a mistake, but we both had our own personal reasons not to go.Matt was still holed up in the abandoned complex, trying to get Svetlana to talk, but she won’t budge. Not until she sees her uncle, Mikhail. So Davide and Demetrius went to get him.My reason for not going is currently taking care of all our patients: Gino, Alexandra, Constance, Alessandro, and even fussing over Matteo. Watching her work has given me new insight into her thought process in a way it never had before.Miguel Cattaneo is on his way back from Montreal and wants to personally question Maria. Matteo wasn’t thrilled, but that’s between him and Miguel.Vincent’s back too. Sareena gave him a sedative to help him sleep. We’ll get the answers we need tomorrow.⸻I knew it was time to finally call Luca and fill him in. I wasn’t sure how our Capo would react. All of us have been ignoring the calls from New Yor

I let jealousy cloud my head, and I got drunk.I barely registered Cesare’s gun still trained on me until he barked, “Benedetti, let Karen go and face me!”I heard the police sirens wailing in the distance and noticed the restaurant had emptied fast, the patrons scattering.“I said let her go!” Cesare thundered again.My vision blurred, so I closed my eyes, as Lessia’s blood started to soak my shirt.“Fuck, Benedetti’s in shock,” someone hissed behind Cesare.I watched as Cesare turned to see who it was. One of his Camorra brothers stepped forward, gun leveled at his temple.“For betraying our capo and his wife,” the man snarled, pulling the trigger.Cesare jerked once, then slumped.“We’ve got to move,” someone shouted, but I barely heard them. I refused to let Lessia go.Two hulking men grabbed my arms, but I twisted free,

Chapter: Chapter 30Unspoken Desires - Chapter 30MatteoHaving Sophia back safely meant everything, but the joy was short because right now, my entire focus was on one thing: my mom.Before we started moving, I called Dad to bring him up to speed. “Bring her back alive and safe. Kill anybody who touched her,” he ordered.I plan on doing worse than killing them. That would be showing mercy. I want them to suffer; slow, brutal and unforgettable. Every single one of them, anyone who laid a hand on my mother… or my fiancée.“Maria is back inside. Wait until the door closes. Then you can proceed to take out the front guards. And… go!” Davide’s voice crackled in my earpiece.My heart slammed against my ribs. Never in a million years did I think I’d be on a mission to rescue my own mother. But here I was, every hour of training, every violent memory, every scar—it all led to this.“Hey Maverick, we got four bogeys down, and we are good to go. Securing the front now,” Demetrius reported through comms.We advanc

Close enough to hear everything.“Lana, you told me you cleaned Connie up,” Maria cooed, her voice sickeningly sweet. “This just won’t do.”“I do nothing until you bring me Matthew and Damian.” Svetlana shot back.Constance and I exchanged a look; the disbelief clear in both our eyes. These two had orchestrated 2 flawless kidnappings, and yet here they were, bickering like toddlers. Totally unprepared and disorganized.“Clean her up,” Maria snapped. “Alessandro’s going to wake up soon, and the Viagra will be in full effect.”I felt bile rise in my throat.“Show me proof you do your part,”Lana snapped back. “So far, all you Italian bitches give me is lies. Where is Matthew? Where is Damian?”“There’s a hose outside. Just spray her down. Make her look at least presentable, Miguel won’t buy it if she looks like t
