A Toy For The Ruthless Mafia Lord 149
CHAPTER 149The heavy scent of tobacco hung between them as Lucifer leaned against the mahogany desk, staring at the pictures all spread out on the table. Antonio paced nearby, his arms crossed and deep in thought.“What are you planning to do?” Antonio finally asked, trying to keep his tone calm although it came off firm.Lucifer didn’t answer at once. His fingers tapped against the desk, slow and forming a beat. Like he was trying to practise his speech in his head.“I’ve taken lives, Antonio. I’ve got blood on my hands too. What gives me the right to turn anyone in?” He exhaled sharply. “Still... those kids. They’re innocent. I can’t just separate them and dump them into foster care like baggage. That would be inconsiderate.”Antonio finally sank into a chair across from him and glanced at every picture. “This is truly gruesome.”“And disturbing,” Lucifer added. “How they could do that and still live together as one is baffling.”“I live with you as one, don't I?” Antonio teased, c

CHAPTER 148Katherine gripped her fork a little bit too tightly and let her eyes soak in the man before her. Anger burned within her veins and tore at her flesh as he munched away on his meal like everything was normal. “Are you just going to turn this into a shit show?” Giovanni inquired as his eyes crossed hers.“What do you mean?” She asked, setting her fork on the table and leaning back in her chair to take him in fully.“Are you in love with me?” He teases. “Oh you finally realise how handsome I am and you've suddenly seen you're fumbling with a very rare piece of cake.”Katherine twistes her mouth. “If I fumbled this one cake, I would always get it back.”He nods. “Fine. Just go on ahead with your meal. Staring wasn't on the menu.”“I need to know why you are doing this,” Katherine whispered. “First of all, it's getting me things I didn't ask for and now, it's getting me to eat with you.”“And sleep with you,” Giovanni says with a playful smirk. But since you wouldn't let me do

CHAPTER 147The soft yet gentle silence of the room was disturbed by the sharp clicking of heels against the floorboards. Katherine flinched, her hand instinctively tightening around the baby cradled in her arms. Her frown deepened when Riley stepped in, with a dominant look on her face and a smug smile.“Keep it down,” Katherine hissed quietly. “Or you’ll wake him.”Riley’s lips twitched into a smirk. “Oh, relax, I won't wake it but if I do you'll put it back to sleep, won't you?” she said, sweeping her fingers through her sleek hair.“It's no it,” Katherine said in disgust. “Thats my son we are talking about.”“I see, I almost forgot,” she said, almost absent minded.Katherine scowled. “Now what are you here for?”“Don’t start with that look. You might as well get used to seeing me around.”Katherine rolled her eyes. “Why are you doing this, Riley? What kind of thrill do you get from dragging me deeper into your bad decisions?”“Satisfaction maybe,” she said, biting her lower lips

CHAPTER 146“Are you ready to talk about it?” Lucifer asked from the dark corner where he was sitting.His office was dimly lit and a few soft pools of light casted shadows on the walls. Asher stood before him, with a pale face, “I think so.”Lucifer, stared at him, with his eyes flicking to the pile of documents and items Asher had brought back from his parents' house. He had asked Antonio and two other guards to go back with him to get any valuable thing that could be used as evidence.“Have your seat. It's just you and I. I don't want to sound like a therapist right now but yeah I would listen to you. Take as much time.”Asher sank into the chair and swallowed hard before speaking.“I’ve never told anyone besides Katherine, all of this,” he began quietly, his voice betraying the tiredness there. “But I need you to understand everything. About Amanda. About Ethan. About what they did to Katherine and the kids.”Lucifer’s gaze stayed unwavering and he nodded at Asher to urge him on.

CHAPTER 145Lucifer kept his promise. He had brought Madelaine and Adelaide to Asher. The moment the girls saw him, their faces lit up like the sun breaking through dark clouds. Their little feet rushed toward him, and they wrapped their tiny arms around him in an overwhelming hug. Asher's heart swelled with emotion. He had been alone, isolated, but now, his sisters—his family—were with him again.They held onto him tightly, like they feared he might disappear if they let go.Lucifer stood by the side, quietly observing them. Asher embraced them, feeling the warmth of their innocent joy, the kind of happiness they hadn't known for a long time. He whispered soft words to them, reassuring them that he was alright.Madelaine pulled back first, her wide eyes searching his face, and then, as if suddenly remembering something, she grabbed the small bundle in Asher's arms, Baby Elodie. She giggled. "Is this Elodie? She's so tiny."Adelaide, ever the more cautious one, followed suit. "Is sh

CHAPTER 144Cassius tilted the handle of his wheelchair to lock it, back straight despite the stiffness in his lower spine. His son, Wilson, paced near the window. He looked unsettled and it was there on his shoulders. His jaw was tight, and he had been at it for two hours.“You should slow down,” Casssius whispered. “You would kill yourself.”“Im better off dead,” Wilson lamented. “This is no life. We got the money but we are entrusted with one thing. Look at my fingers— my hands and you, we have no idea when you'll be out of that wheelchair.” Cassius let out a sigh. “At least we can eat now.”“We can't do what we used to, don't you get it?”Cassius shrugged. “I do, but look at it son. We've got life.”“It's not enough. I want revenge. I want the skull of that girl in my hands. I would paint it and hang it up in my room as a souvenir. I want to take back all she took from me in the wink of an eye.The creak of the old apartment door made them both turn.R walked in like a breeze th

CHAPTER 143Usually he would wear black but not today. Today wasn't one of those days when he would dress to scare.Instead, he wore a soft grey sweater and faded jeans. His usual scowl was replaced with a calmer and softer look. He didn’t walk like death today, rather he walked like a stranger trying not to scare a cat.The room's back door creaked when he entered, with arms full of plush toys, bright snack bags, and a pink-and-purple doll set tucked beneath one elbow. He ordered his guards to stay outside. Today was for him and the girls.The faint scent of old crayons and spilled juice filled the living room and the little girls sat huddled on a couch, with eyes wide opened. They seemed to be playing but the moment they saw him, they scrambled backwards. Madelaine darted behind the couch and Adelaide crawled under the coffee table with her bunny.Lucifer set the things down slowly on the couch. “I’m not here to hurt you,” he said, with a very low and careful voice. “I brought you s

CHAPTER 142Katherine sat on the edge of the oversized velvet armchair, with her arms crossed tightly over her chest and her eyes fixed on the floor. There was a brief and suffocating silence like if one of them dared make a noise, Someone might end them.Giovanni poured two glasses of red wine. He took his time with it, swirling the liquid, and watching it settle.“You look good,” he muttered as his eyes lingered on her, taking in her curves in the red dress. “What’s the occasion?”“Don’t do that,” she said quietly, her voice tight. “Didn’t you say you needed to... talk to me?”“Oh? You do like hearing things don't you?” he whispered, with a smirk.Katherine swallowed. “Why... why am I here?”“Because I enjoy your company,” Giovanni said with a wide grin.Katherine’s jaw clenched, and she shook her head, her eyes darting toward the door. “I don’t want to stay. Please let me go.”“Not until I decide,” Giovanni said.Katherine’s breath hitched as she forced herself to meet his eyes, wh

CHAPTER 141The early morning air was chill as it occupied Asher’s lungs. Breathing in was hard and it made his insides numb. His feet hit the pavement in rhythm as he jogged, left, right, left. Almost as though he was trying to outrun the problem in his chest. The streets were empty and the sky still gray with dawn. He sighed deeply.He needed this.Ever since Lucifer’s visit… the blood, the screaming, the stench of gunpowder, it all haunted him. But worse than the pain in Lucifer's voice or his sister ’s sobs, was the realization that Katherine had never made it home.Lucifer hadn’t said it outright, but Asher could almost taste it in his words. Katherine was still missing and if she was alive, he couldn't tell.He jogged faster, trying to drown out the thoughts from within and his breath fogged in the cold air.The sound of the ringtone breaking the silence, interrupting his music and the vibration in his pocket stopped him dead in the tracks. He slowed and pulled out his phone.W
