"No mom ! I'm not walking like that ". I immediately replied to her, trying not to stutter.

I didn't even know her gaze was on me while I was entering inside....and my walking steps, I didn't know it was so noticeable.

Mom walked towards me and started looking at me from head to toe. I tried not to look at her at all.

"Are you in your cycle?"

"No mom. It's by the end of the month. "

"So why are you walking like this? Did you injure your thigh?"

"No , not at all . I just

  • Betrothed to the Mafia Heir    Chapter 095

    Lorna's POV >>>Ray's last words kept ringing in my ear and suddenly made me restless. Maybe I could have just allowed him have his way in the closet, and maybe his mind would have drifted from the discussion he'd planned for the both of us. Deep down, I really wanted us to be so open to each other. I want to know my husband, to know other aspects of him apart from the ‘always-annoyed, broody, scary and sex-driven ‘ part of him. I want to know more than what Ms Helen had told me before she died. But then, that would require my own honesty and this was going to turn on me. He might find out my mother was staying with Don Juan. He could finally believe that I was involved in his near-death experience during his Mafia initiation party. Ray always sees through my lies and it wouldn't take long before he discovers my lying ass if we start talking. “Lorna, breathe. Calm down, okay? He can't find out now, he won't “. I muttered to myself, pressing my hands on my chest while pacing

  • Betrothed to the Mafia Heir    Chapter 094

    Ray drove through the not-so-quiet streets of Seattle in his Cadillac , his eyes occasionally moving to the side mirror. Two black SUVs followed closely behind him. His men. The meeting place had been chosen by the new Pakhan himself—a private establishment almost at the outskirts of the city. He chose the place, believing it was a neutral ground and perfect for where two different leaders could meet , none of them knowing what could be the conclusion of the gathering. Ray almost found the idea amusing.There was no such thing as neutral ground in Seattle.The City Council's headquarters was here, Its businesses stretched across the city, its connections ran through all government offices, and its men knew the streets better than anyone else.The Russians could choose any building they wanted.Seattle would still be his territory and he would always call the shots. Ray slowed down as the private entrance of the establishment came into view.His men followed him into th

    Ray drove back home from the gallery. He didn't even spend much time there before he got a call from the new Bratva leader. They scheduled an urgent meeting to discuss a new alliance and a deal with the Russians. His father had sealed a certain arm deal with them before, but not with this new leader. The both groups had a change of rulership and there was need for a change of rules and deals. He got back and met his father smoking and staring at nothing in particular. Their own relationship was already so strained that he didn't even bother to ask why the old man looked that way in the afternoon. He scoffed a bit as he quickly strode into the elevator. He needed to get some papers needed for such an urgent meeting from his room. As soon as the elevator opened, revealing his own chambers , he walked to his door and opened it. Looking around , Lorna wasn't there until he paid attention to some water-bubble noise coming from the bathroom. His stiff shoulders dropp

    Lorna's POV The message stared right back at me as I did too. For the first time in our friendship, Ava was the venting one at this point. She wasn’t the type to complain or talk about her issues no matter how I try to get them out of her. Ava was the emotional pillar in our friendship, it's always as if she never gets upset or maybe I barely annoyed her. But today's text from her was unexpected and it doubled the guilt I felt when I yelled at her in class. It was a long text, seemed like something she forced herself to type in annoyance. I couldn't even read it all, I felt her colliding emotions in the message - from shock, to anger, to sadness, to anger again, to a bit of concern, to reassurance and then to making sure I felt really guilty and yes, I did. She focused her anger on that word—”read the room” and I understood how that sounded for someone that genuinely cared about me. “God! What have I done? How am I gonna fix this right now?” I muttered to myself st

  • Betrothed to the Mafia Heir    Chapter 091

    Ray couldn't believe it at first. What beef does a university student have with him? He thought to himself. He knew he'd become more famous since he took over the City Council. Enemies were bound to be against him, he was sure of that, but a student..? He drove faster to the Washington State General station and within minutes, he got there. Lucky enough, he didn't come with any entourage. Just him, and his Range Rover. “That was fast, Mr Ray!” Superintendent Dan jerked up from his seat as soon as Ray walked into his office. His voice laced with surprise and a surge of laughter. “Please..” the Chief of Police gestured towards the leather chair and added “have a seat”. Ray didn't utter a word as he sat rigidly on the seat , watching as the man sat down too. He glanced at the office, taking notes of the portraits of government officials on the wall. His eyes settled on a painting that was placed carefully on the bottom of the wall. He knew that art work because

    Dave muffled against the tape on his mouth,..the inaudible sounds were laced with terror and fear as he widened his eyes, gazing at his brother who stood with a satisfied smirk on his face. He moved his arms relentlessly despite his hands being tied behind, wanting to escape the sight he'd already beheld. Jeremy walked towards Sergeant Samantha's corpse and skillfully pulled out the dagger buried in her back. He searched around her body for any mobile device because he never trusted that she was in this revenge path alone. Took her pistol , her hidden badge and her cellphone. “Relax Dave. I'm gonna untie you soon and we'll get out of here. Just need to …uhh..check .., you know, tie up any loose ends that'll point this back to me”. His words broke unfocused as he glanced through her phone, checking tracking apps and other stuff. Then, he broke the phone into two, threw the two halves on the floor and smashed it into pieces under his boot . Next, he took out a colored

    Since the class had unexpectedly ended, I still had up to forty-five minutes to spare in school. So I decided to tell Ava everything. "Ava, something happened two days ago and I wanna tell you about it " I started. "Aiit best, shoot. I'm listening " she turned towards me. We were sitting

    "Eavesdropping? Nahh..I don't do that, mistress " He replied, grinning a bit. I didn't believe him. "So , what then are you doing up here, along the bedroom corridor of my husband and I?" Jeremy chuckled, and that was when I realized I'd called Ray "my husband ". Perhaps, it didn't sound we

    Draco reopened the hotel, Ray's hotel, which was temporarily closed down until he married Lorna. "This is your only property that you can effectively use for now. The art company and the National garage under your name will remain on hold for now " Draco blatantly stated, handing over the relea

    Lorna's POV:Ava's face was like a placard, describing the true meaning of shock the moment I dropped the news for her. I just couldn't think of a better way to start explaining the whole thing, so I simply let it out that way. "What do you mean you're married? Lorna please." She chuckled,
