FLORA

"Plans change," the man—Carlo—responded. "Antonio has the Colombians backing him now. He thinks he doesn't need us anymore."

"Then he's a fool," Sofia snapped. "The Colombians will use him and discard him once they have what they want. Where is he now?"

"He’s still in California, negotiating the final details. He'll be back tomorrow."

There was a pause, and we heard their footsteps moving across the room.

"What about Lorenzo?" Sofia asked. Her voice was quieter now. "Are you sure?"

"My men at the hospital confirmed it. He flatlined and they couldn't revive him. The official statement will come tomorrow."

Sofia let out a long breath. "I never wanted it to come to that."

"He was loyal to Dante," Carlo said dismissively. "He would have exposed everything."

"I know. But he was family."

"And family is exactly why we're doing this," Carlo said. His voice was gentler now. "Your brother is leading the business into ruin, Sofia. He’s making allies with the wrong people. He’s making deals

  • Bound To The Mafia Don   Chapter 127

    FLORAI kept staring at the screen like the footage was going to change if I looked at it long enough.Giovanni had been at the door to my mother’s apartment.But why?“Play it again,” I said sharply.Agent Harrison did as I asked immediately. The screen moved again. Giovanni knocked on the door twice, then stepped back, and waited. He didn’t do anything else for a while until he glanced over his shoulder, looking around suspiciously like he was being followed. And that was it. The camera didn’t catch any of what happened after that.I turned to Marcus immediately. “Find out what that was. I want to know why he was there.”“I’m on it,” Marcus replied without wasting even a second. Then he grabbed his laptop and left the room.Dante’s eyes were fixed on me, but I couldn’t read the expression on his face. His lips were drawn into a thin line, and his hands were clenched into fists, but his eyes... they held too many emotions.“You think he threatened her?” I asked, barely able to get t

  • Bound To The Mafia Don   Chapter 126

    FLORAI didn’t say a word on the whole flight back to Miami. Dante was quiet too, but I could feel the tension rolling off him. His jaw was clenched and his eyes hadn’t stopped burning since he found that picture. I’d never seen him somewhat like this before, but this was different. He looked cold, focused, and dangerous all at the same time.But all I could feel was fear. Not just for Dante, but for all of us.Giovanni Romano was now on the run with Elena Vasquez. That alone was enough to make me sick to my stomach. The man who had once helped raise Dante had been working with the woman who nearly destroyed our lives. And now they were out there, together, planning God knows what.I kept looking out the window like I expected their plane to fly by and crash into ours or something.“Flora,” Dante suddenly said beside me. “We’re not letting them win.”“I know,” I whispered back, squeezing his hand in comfort. “But it feels like this war has been going on forever. Will it ever end?”He

    DANTE“Giovanni,” I said again, slower this time like I was trying to believe it myself.The word tasted almost bitter on my tongue as I said it. My stomach was twisted in knots already. I couldn’t stop staring at Agent Harrison, hoping he’d say he got it all wrong, that maybe it was someone else and this was all just some mistake.But he didn’t say anything else. He just kept looking at me like he knew what this meant.Giovanni Romano. My uncle. The man who had raised me for part of my early life. The one person in this world I thought I could always trust no matter what happened.And now I knew he’d been the one feeding Elena Vasquez with info. Everything she knew about us, she got from him.My hands started to shake. I clenched them into fists, trying to calm myself down, but it didn’t seem to be working. I could feel my blood already boiling in my veins.“He raised me,” I said under my breath. “He was the one who taught me almost everything I know. He taught me how to fight, how t

    FLORAThe explosion had knocked the breath out of me. Again.My ears were ringing like someone had set off fireworks inside my skull. I blinked fast as I tried to make sense of the blurry lights and running feet around me. I could barely hear the shouting, but I knew the feeling of chaos. I’d been living in it for a while now.The next thing I knew, I was being lifted with large but careful hands as they placed me on a stretcher. The women we’d rescued were right there too, and now all of us lined up like a row of broken dolls.“Stay with me, Flora,” Dante said with his hand gripping mine.I tried to speak but I could only manage a cough instead.“She’s coughing! Get oxygen on her!” a medic shouted.I wanted to tell them I was fine, that the baby was okay, but honestly, I wasn’t sure anymore. My whole body felt numb, my heart was racing, and all I could think about was whether my baby had made it through that second blast.The ambulance ride felt like it lasted forever. Dante sat besi

    DANTEI didn’t wait for Harrison’s questions. I just turned and ran.Three minutes. That’s how long we had before everything on this floor went up in flames.I grabbed wire cutters and bolt cutters from the maintenance cart just outside Flora’s room. My hands shook as I rushed back in. She was still on the bed with her wrists strapped down. Her face was pale but she looked alert.“I’m getting you out of here,” I said, already working on the restraints.When her eyes met mine, I could see that they were filled with fear. “Dante, wait. It’s not just me. Elena’s men are holding other pregnant women in some rooms down the hallway. I heard them crying and begging.”I paused just for a second. Then I kept cutting.“How many rooms?” I asked.“I don’t know. But there must be at least two,” she replied.The strap snapped off her right wrist, and I moved to the left. My heart was pounding so loud now.“We can’t leave them, Dante,” she said. “We have to try.”“I know.”Two minutes left.I got th

    DANTE"There's a third option,” I said."Which is?""I stop you."Elena laughed. "With what? You're outnumbered twenty to one.""Maybe, but I'm not alone."Just then, the doors to the stairs burst open and Sofia came in, followed by Agent Harrison and some FBI agents."Elena Vasquez," Harrison called out. "You're under arrest."Elena's face went pale. "How did you find me?""Your companies weren't as well hidden as you thought," Sofia said. "We've been tracking your financial records for days."But Elena recovered quickly. She held up the detonator again. "It doesn't matter now. If anyone moves, I'll blow this whole floor to pieces.""Put down the remote," Harrison said. "We can work this out.""Work it out? Like you worked it out when Diego died?" she replied."Mrs. Vasquez, I understand you're angry about your husband's death, but this isn't the way to go about it.""This is the only way,” she replied hotly.I could see that Elena was getting desperate. And desperate people did stup
