Bound To The Mafia Don Chapter 78
FLORA"That's not possible," Dante said immediately. "It's not her.""Dante—" I started to say."It's NOT her," he repeated, his voice rising as he interrupted me. "The image is blurry. It could be anyone.""Boss," the tech guy gently called out. “There's more footage from the same meeting. And the audio is clearer in this one."He pulled up another clip. The woman—which I was now completely sure was Sofia because of how clear this particular footage was—had now seated herself on a couch, and was sipping a brown liquid from a glass."How long before they figure it out?" Antonio asked."I don’t think they will," Sofia replied. Then she laughed.It was a sound I had heard countless times over dinners and meetings right from the first time I saw her when she came to visit me in the cramped apartment I had been staying in when I first met Dante. I looked at Dante, whose expression had turned as hard as stone."The video could be fake," he said flatly. "Antonio could have created this kno

FLORAThe private jet touched down in San Jose without so much as a bump. I gripped the armrest nervously. But my nervousness was not from the landing but from what awaited us. Dante was sitting beside me, and his jaw was set in that hard line I had come to recognize as his battle face."We're here," he said simply, then he unbuckled his seatbelt.I nodded after I had gathered my courage. After Lorenzo's warning about Sofia and the way his health had declined after then, we had come close to canceling the trip. But we knew Antonio's trail would grow cold after a while, so Dante had left his most trusted men to watch over my mother and Lorenzo at the hospital."You don't have to do this," Dante said for the tenth time since takeoff. "You could stay at the hotel while we—""Don't start that again," I said, cutting him off. "I'm seeing this through."He reached over and squeezed my hand. His touch was warm, and it contrasted greatly with the coldness in his eyes. "Just stay close to me a

FLORAOver the next hour, we planned our strategies like we always did. Harrison shared the FBI's plans with us while Dante explained how his own people would support. Sofia worked on her laptop, occasionally adding details about financial trails and the location of some places.I moved between helping my mother with her lunch and bringing Anthony ice chips, thinking about how everything had turned out."You're staring," Anthony commented when I handed him his pain medication."Sorry," I said. "It's just... Do you think Carlo Romano knew? About you being his son?"Anthony's expression softened slightly. "Funny how I've been thinking about the same thing too. If he did, he never reached out before he was killed,” he replied."Maybe he wanted to protect you," my mother said from her bed. Anthony and I turned to look at her immediately. "Carlo knew what Antonio was capable of, so if he had acknowledged you as his son...""I would have been a target," Anthony finished.The thought hung in

FLORAThe steady beep of medical monitors had become the soundtrack of my life over the past three days. I sat in the chair between two hospital beds. My mother was on the left, while Anthony was on the right. Both of them were still recovering from the kidney transplant surgery that had gone better than anyone expected.My mother's color had improved dramatically since she had received Anthony's kidney. The doctors were cautiously optimistic, and had used words like "remarkable recovery" and "exceeding expectations." Anthony, too had been the perfect patient, following all the medical instructions he had been given.I reached over to adjust my mother's blanket as she slept peacefully. The door opened quietly, and Dante slipped in. There were dark circles under his eyes which showcased his exhaustion. He had barely slept since Antonio's escape as he had been on the lookout for him and he had been calling in every favor owed to the Romano family."Any news so far?" I whispered as he ca

FLORAI was so shocked that I was speechless for a moment. "What?" I questioned. "Apparently, he had a relationship with my mother before he met yours," Anthony continued. His voice sounded gentle. "Neither of them knew she was pregnant when they separated. My mother married into the Ricci family soon after, and my... the man who raised me never told me that I wasn't his biological son."I struggled to process this information. "You're saying you’re...""A part of the Romano family, yes," he finished. "I'm still trying to wrap my head around it too."A thousand questions raced through my mind. Had my mother known? Had Carlo himself known? Was this what she had been trying to tell me?Before I could ask any of them, Dante and Sofia returned to the waiting room, closely followed by the doctor."We have the test results," she announced. "None of you are compatible matches."My heart sank. "So what do we do now?" I asked, downcast."We've put her on the national transplant list, but give

FLORAThe island immediately transformed within minutes as the FBI swarmed the whole place. Some agents secured the island while medical teams tended to the people who had injuries. I sat in the back of an ambulance with a thick blanket wrapped around my shoulders, watching as Antonio was led away in handcuffs. His leg had been hastily bandaged, but he was still limping along as the guards whisked him away.His eyes found mine as they pushed him into a vehicle. Even in defeat, his gaze was filled with nothing but pure hatred. I stared back, refusing to look away from him until the doors closed between us.Agent Harrison approached me. I could see the satisfaction on his face as clear as day. "We've got him, Flora. And the two surviving crime bosses. The other two didn't make it.""What about the evidence?" I asked, suddenly remembering the flash drive in my pocket. I pulled it out and offered it to him. "I had a backpack filled with physical evidence but my mother said this contains e

FLORAAntonio's laughter turned more cruel. "Margaret, still acting like a savior, I see. Why would I trade this young hostage for a dying old woman?""Because I'm the one you really want," she replied. "I'm the one who helped turn Carlo against you. I helped him gather incriminating evidence against you."I could feel Antonio's grip on me tighten at her words. The blade pressed harder against my throat."Mom, don't," I pleaded.She took a step forward. "You know I'm right, Antonio. Killing me would be your true revenge."Antonio hesitated for a moment. I could sense his indecision. "Stay where you are," he finally ordered. "All of you. I'm taking the girl. Once I'm safely away, I'll release her.""You're lying," Dante said as he took a small step forward, moving toward Antonio and me."Stop!" Antonio ordered as he pressed the knife harder against my skin. I felt a warm trickle of blood run down my neck. "The next step you take will end her life."Dante froze and raised his hands imme

FLORAAntonio's finger tightened visibly on the trigger of his gun. I rushed forward, but before he could fire, his expression suddenly changed. With a savage growl, he suddenly turned and lunged, not at me or even Dante, but at my mother surprisingly.The knife in his hand flashed in the sunlight as he charged viciously. My mother stood there, frozen. Her eyes were wide with shock."No!" Dante roared, immediately throwing himself between both of them.The blade sank into Dante's shoulder with a sharp sound. He grunted in pain but grabbed Antonio's wrist, preventing him from pulling out the knife for another strike.I raised my gun but I couldn't get a clean shot with both of them so close to each other. Blood had begun to spread across Dante's shirt as he fought to keep Antonio's knife hand controlled.Shouts began to come from the entrance to the courtyard. When I glanced over, I could see a group of Antonio's guards rushing in with their weapons already out and drawn. I knew we wer

FLORA"Mom?" I whispered, lowering the gun. I was too shocked at my mother’s presence to move.My mother stepped into the room and closed the door behind her. In her hand was a gun, and she was holding it with the confidence of someone who knew how to use it."Flora," she said. Her voice was steady. "I followed you from the hospital. I knew what you were planning.""How did you—""Get to the island?" She gave a grim smile. "I still have connections from my time with Carlo. There were some people who owed me favors. So I got here on a supply boat," she said, pulling something from her pocket. It was a small flash drive. "I paid the captain enough to look the other way. He thinks I'm delivering important documents to Antonio."She moved to the monitors, and her eyes immediately found Antonio on the screen where he was still fighting with Dante."I need to end this," she said, gripping her gun tighter. "Antonio took Carlo from me. I won't let him take my daughter too."The look in her ey
