Zachary Gonzalez hauled Ava into his lavish yet tastefully modest bedroom, shutting and bolting the door behind them with a quiet click.

Ava barely had time to register the elegant interior, the deep emerald drapes, the dark wood finish, the subtle gold accents, before she was suddenly pulled down onto a velvet chaise longue.

Her chest rose and fell erratically as Zac leaned over her, arms braced on either side. His posture was imposing, but his face wasn’t. His brows were smooth, his expression unreadable.

The corners of his eyes lifted with a quiet glint of amusement, the soft lighting reflecting in their depth. He looked less like the cold tycoon she’d imagined and more like some cunning male fairy out of a twisted fairytale.

“Who is Cole?” he asked, voice calm, neither too low nor loud, but impossibly steady.

Ava froze. Her eyes flew open, mouth parting in shock. Then, in a flash, it all came back to her. That night. The drinks. Her confusion. Her constant murmurs of Cole while Z

  • Acknowledged By A Mafia Leader   A Strong Woman

    “Surprise!” multiple voices rang out as soon as Ava and Nick stepped into the house.The lights flicked on, and Ava stood frozen, speechless. Her closest friends were gathered, all smiling brightly, party hats on their heads and colorful balloons in their hands.“Congratulations, sweetheart,” Hazel said, stepping forward to hug her tightly and kiss her cheek.Ava blinked in disbelief. “How did you find out already? We were just coming from the hospital.”“Reid called and told me, baby,” Hazel replied, gently caressing Ava’s cheek.Ava’s brows furrowed as she shifted her gaze toward Reid, who grinned and pointed at Nick. “He shared the good news with me first.”“Yes, Your Highness. I couldn’t contain my happiness, so I texted Reid right away,” Nick said with a wide smile, flashing all his teeth.Ava rolled her eyes, but she couldn’t even bring herself to be mad at him.“Oh my, I’m so sorry, sweetheart,” Freya said tearfully as she stepped forward and wrapped Ava in a gentle hug.“It wo

    THREE WEEKS LATERNick watched as night gradually settled in, and Ava was still asleep. She had woken up twice to use the bathroom, and each time, he had managed to get her to eat… it was such a difficult task to do.She didn’t want to eat. Nick wasn’t sure what her food preferences were, but one thing he did know was that Ava used to love croissants.Now, however, she said croissants made her feel nauseous, and even the smell of salad turned her stomach. It hadn’t been easy for him. When he mentioned it to Reid, Reid suggested she might be sick, but Ava kept insisting she was fine.“I’m hungry, Nick,” her sleepy voice broke into his thoughts.Nick jumped to his feet, grinning. “Right away, Princess. Go back to your room and wait.”Ava returned to her room but fell asleep again. Nick went out to get the food, then woke her gently when he returned. She ate, then drifted back to sleep. With a quiet sigh, Nick left the room.The following noon, Ava walked into the kitchen and found Nick

    Another gunshot rang out, louder and more forceful this time. Ava trembled uncontrollably, whimpering softly as she pressed her hand over her mouth.Suddenly, Zac’s face was close to hers. He grabbed her arm tightly. “Don’t get out of this car no matter what, Ava. Don’t come out, got it?” His eyes pleaded with her.Ava nodded sharply and squeezed his hand as he reached to open the door. “Be careful, please,” she whispered, her eyes filling with tears.He smiled, leaned in, and kissed the top of her head. “I love you. Don’t ever forget that, okay?”Without waiting for her reply, he pushed the door open and stepped out.Three black SUVs approached slowly. Inside were men dressed entirely in black, their faces covered like ninjas.“Son of a bitch, Walker,” Zac cursed under his breath. Suddenly, a grunt escaped him as a sharp pain struck his left arm.More than ten men appeared out of nowhere, separate from those in the vehicles.“Damn,” Zac snorted, firing quickly and taking down most of

    They had barely settled when Zac stood up again, his eyes catching sight of his bosses approaching. Five men in black suits walked toward them, but the one in the center clearly held the most authority. His presence was cold and commanding.Zac gave a slight bow in greeting.“You haven’t entered Mexico in a while, Zac. What’s going on?” Dante Albert asked in a hard tone. He was the ruthless capo dei capi of the most powerful and dangerous Mexican-American Mafia.“I haven’t received any orders to do so, Capo,” Zac replied politely.The Capo nodded slowly, casting a brief glance at the timid Ava seated beside Zac before walking away, the others following closely behind.“Oh my goodness. I can’t believe I nearly peed my pants just from that man’s presence,” Ava said as soon as Zac returned to his seat.“Why does he look so terrifying, Zac? And what’s with those awful scars all over his face? Oh my… I think I need to use the restroom,” she added, getting to her feet and softly patting her

    By the time Ava finished freshening up, she was stunned to see that Zac had completely changed into a different outfit. He looked like he was heading out.“Going somewhere?” Ava asked as she studied him closely.With a height well over six feet, a strong build, a sharply defined jaw, raven-black hair, and an undeniably handsome face, he looked like every girl’s dark fantasy.“I need to attend an important party, but I’ll be back before you know it,” Zac said gently, closing the distance between them and pressing a kiss to her forehead.Ava stared at him, as if what he said made no sense. “You’re going to a party without me?”“Yes, baby. It would be a lot better if you didn’t come with me,” Zac said with a small smile.“But I want to come with you. And if you keep insisting I shouldn’t, then it means you’re hiding something from me,” Ava replied firmly, her eyes sharp with suspicion.Zac let out a scoff of disbelief. “What could I possibly be hiding from you after everything we’ve been

    The table was elaborately decorated with fresh flowers, and an impressive spread of pastries, wine, and drinks covered its length. The entire dining hall glowed with elegance and warmth, echoing the care put into every detail.From the corner of her eye, Ava spotted Zac emerging from a quiet part of the house. Concern tugged at her chest, and she walked over to him.“Where have you been? Are you okay?” she asked gently, her voice laced with worry.Zac gave a curt nod. “Yeah. I’m fine,” he replied quietly.Together, they stepped into the hall and took their seats at the long dining table. The atmosphere buzzed with conversation and laughter. Glasses clinked, stories were exchanged, and warm smiles circled the room.Only Zac remained silent. He ate slowly, eyes lowered to his plate, clearly disconnected from the merriment around him.Genevieve noticed, but said nothing. She didn’t attempt to draw him into conversation either. At that moment, anyone with a clear sense of awareness could
