Grace's Pov

Standing in the doorway, with all the calm confidence in the world, was Silvano.

He didn’t even blink. His dark eyes flicked down, slowly, but not too slowly, and then back up to meet mine.

His gaze was not apologetic nor was it embarrassed. He was just observing.

“You weren’t at the dining table when I came,” he said calmly, like he hadn’t just barged in on me half-naked. “I came to check on you.”

“I am clearly fine,” I hissed at him. I want him to get out immediately. “Now get out.”

He didn't look fazed or moved by what I said. He remained at the door. “You didn’t lock the door.” he simply stated.

“I didn’t know I needed to! Normal people knock!”

His lips quirked into the faintest hint of a smirk. “I am not normal, Grace. You of all people should know that by now,” he said

My skin burned under his gaze, not just from embarrassment, but from the way my name sounded from his tongue, his tongue wrapped around my name like a promise.

“Get. Out.”

He finally moved, but not o

  • A Nurse for the Mafia Don    Chapter 32

    Grace's povMy brain stalled and completely blanked out.Out of all the people in this damn city, out of all the hospitals in this city, I had to land in a room with him.Dr. Adrian Cole.Holy sh*t,” I muttered under my breath.The same Adrian I had done rotations with a few times two years ago. The one who flirted with every breathing female in scrubs. The one who almost got suspended for being too friendly with a senior nurse in the on-call room.I heard they were almost caught in the act. He was a walking manwhore who didn't give a damn about anyone but his ego and himself.I never forgot his face, I don't think anyone who has eyes can forget his face. He was handsome, even though I hate to admit it. He knew he was handsome and used it to land every female he was interested in to bed. I had sworn never to work with someone like him because of his ego and flirty attitude.And here he was, standing in front of me with the same smug confidence he also carries around.“Grace Green,”

  • A Nurse for the Mafia Don    Chapter 31

    Grace's PovI turned my face to the window, pretending to watch the city blur past, but really, I just didn’t want him to see the sting in my eyes.I wasn't used to being yelled at. Especially by someone other than my Mum. It was usually over something I was supposed to do and it has been years since she did that, not when I have grown. I wasn't used to feeling like this. Especially after I just managed to escape death.How would Mum, Sophie, and Noah take the news? What would become of them? I tried not to think too much about it but he isn't making it easy for me not to. He was angry, I know. But he shouldn't take it out on me. Was he worried? I don't know. But still, the way he barked those words like it wasn’t out of care but out of control.“Grace,” he said after a moment of silence but I didn't turn or answer him.I didn't want to turn because I might say something I couldn't take back or worse, I could cry.He didn't say anything else and the ride to the hospital was a quiet

  • A Nurse for the Mafia Don    Chapter 30

    Grace's Pov My ears rang like a siren trapped in my skull. I blinked against the smoke, trying to force my eyes to focus to see anything but I couldn't.“Giovanni?” I croaked, coughing as smoke clawed its way down my throat.I pushed myself up on trembling arms, my knees scraping against the rough pavement. My dress was torn at the side and there was a sharp pain slicing across my shin. I couldn't check, I just wanted to find Giovanni.“Giovanni!” I called louder, my voice hoarse from the smoke.I blinked away, trying to see, but everything was a blur. I tried harder this time as the smoke was clearing and then I saw him.He was a few feet ahead of me, sprawled on the ground and he wasn't moving. My heart plummeted.No. No, no, no.I scrambled toward him, ignoring the pain shooting through my legs. I grabbed his shoulders and shook him. “Giovanni! Please—”He groaned before I could complete my sentence.Relief crashed into me so hard I almost collapsed on top of him. His forehead w

  • A Nurse for the Mafia Don    Chapter 29

    Grace Pov He held my gaze for like 5 seconds before he looked away as if he didn't know me. Wow. Just wow.He is ignoring me too. What was wrong if he acknowledged me and introduced me to his date?I tore my eyes off him and looked at my plate.My dessert was almost finished, so I finished it and pushed the plate away from me. “Should we leave now?” Giovanni asked and I nodded. I would have loved to hang around more and enjoy my night out but my mood was spoiled already.“Okay,” he said and rang the waiter. The waiter gave him the bill and he gave his card. After a few seconds, the waiter came back to give him his card and we both stood up.Giovanni came around me, putting a hand on my back as we both left the restaurant, but not without me stealing a glance at Silvano and his date.We got to the car and Giovanni opened the door for me but I didn't enter, I only dropped my bag inside the car.“Can we go for a walk? Dinner is always perfect with a night stroll,” I said and he tho

  • A Nurse for the Mafia Don    Chapter 28

    Grace's Pov The car pulled over in front of the restaurant. It looked warm, inviting, like a place that belonged in someone else’s world. Not mine.Because I don't know what mine was anymore.Giovanni opened the car door and offered me a hand. I placed my hand in his and stepped out slowly, my heels clicking on the pavement.The moment we walked in, I felt eyes on us. The hostess approached us and smiled warmly.“Table under reservation named Morelli,” Giovanni said, and the hostess checked the tab with her.“This way,” she said, guiding us toward a table by the window.It was beautiful. Tables by the window are always the best. Giovanni pulled my chair for me to sit before sitting on the chair across from me. There was soft music playing in the background of the restaurant. I was looking around the restaurant, noticing how elegant and exquisite the interior of the restaurant was when Giovanni spoke.“Silvano made the reservation,” he said “but he couldn’t make it.”I didn’t ask wh

  • A Nurse for the Mafia Don    Chapter 27

    Grace's Pov In the split seconds when his lips brushed against mine, I made my choice. I turned my face, making his lips land on my cheek.Every part of me was screaming something different, my heart, my head, my body. They were telling me to give in. But I couldn't.“No,” I whispered, placing my hand gently but firmly on his chest.Silvano pulled back from me and his eyes opened.“I can't,” I looked him up in the eyes.He didn’t look angry nor did he pull away further. He just looked still as he looked at me.A tense silence fell between us. I was afraid to even blink.Then he slowly stepped back, letting his hand drop from my neck and body.“Alright,” he said, his voice low.He nodded once, like he was grounding himself. “I was out of line. Sorry.”That surprised me more than anything.“I will give you space,” he added before turning away, and walking out of the kitchen, leaving me standing there. Was that it? He wasn't going to ask me why I didn't let him kiss me? He didn't e
