The gun felt like it weighed a ton.

I could see the impatience beginning to crawl into Luca's eyes. Matteo on the other hand was happy about the position I had been put in, he found it entertaining.

The man was pushed to his knees before me. He shook violently, his breathing becoming panicked and frantic. He knew that he was going to die either way but the question was whether or not I was going to be the one to pull the trigger.

I had killed before but not like this. Not in cold blood.

  • Bound by blood and lies   CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY

    Eli's povThere are days when the world feels too loud, too fast — a constant rush of shadows and sounds. But not today.Today, everything is quiet.Not silent. Just… calm.I stood by the window of our estate’s upper lounge, Silas curled in my arms, his head resting gently against my chest. His tiny breaths puffed out in soft, even waves, little fingers wrapped around my shirt like he was afraid I’d disappear if he let go. My heart clenched. He didn’t know just how many times I had once wished to vanish — and how now, with him, vanishing wasn’t an option anymore.“Are you crying again?” Matteo’s voice floated in from behind, amused and just a bit accusatory. “You’ve become soft, amore.”I didn’t even turn. “And you’re just realizing this now?”He came to stand beside me, his hand brushing over Silas’ back, then settling at my waist. He sighed, soft and dramatic as always. “I miss the days when you glared at everything.”

  • Bound by blood and lies   CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND NINETEEN

    Eli’s POVOne year later…I never thought the sound of crying would become something I adored. But here I was—half-asleep, mismatched socks on, shirt inside out, bottle in one hand and a very wriggly, very loud, very perfect four-month-old in the other.Silas Ricardo Rossi—our son.I still remember the mission like it was yesterday. We were supposed to retrieve stolen cargo in the outskirts of Milan, nothing out of the ordinary. What we found instead was an abandoned safe house with scorch marks on the wall… and a baby in a bassinet, wide-eyed, cheeks flushed, wrapped in a navy blue blanket with a tiny lion embroidered into the corner.He looked at me and didn’t cry. Just stared. As if he knew me.Matteo had nearly passed out. Luca stood frozen. And me? I walked forward like I’d been pulled by a string straight into his orbit. He grabbed my finger. I was a goner.Convincing them took le

    Eli’s POVThe second the doors opened, everything around me blurred except for them.There they were.My beautiful, loving husbands. Men feared by the world but loved by me. Men that I had never wished nor prayed for and get God has given them to me because he knew that I needed them even without asking.My perfect men.Not just Mafia dons, no. That title didn't matter to me. They were simply mine.My feet moved before I even told them to. The room was silent exclusive the soft melody of a beautiful violin in the background. The guests watched as I walked on. They weren't much because we didn't want a crowd. Just our closest family. People we trusted. People who’d fought beside us. Who knew our chaos and still chose to stand with us.In the past year which we have used to rebuild ourselves, I had one to know a lot of new, friendly faces that meant just as much to me as I was to them as they watched me walk to my hus

  • Bound by blood and lies   Chapter two hundred and seventeen

    Eli's pov I had never paced this much in my entire life.The room was quiet except for the gentle hum of classical music playing from a speaker in the corner. Everything was pristine—white lilies in tall vases, silk curtains shifting softly from the morning breeze sneaking through the opened window, a neat table full of gifts and cards. It was all beautiful. Breathtaking, even.And yet, I couldn’t stop moving.My reflection stared back at me from the big corner mirror as I stood in the middle of the room—shirtless, dress pants on, my bowtie hanging undone around my neck like it was just as confused about how this morning was supposed to go."You're going to peel the floor out," Luca said from the doorway, his voice warm with amusement. He looked like hell and heaven at the same time in his tux which was black and perfectly tailored, with a silver pin on his lapel that matched mine and Matteo’s. His curls were a l

    Luca’s POVThe kitchen still smelled like burnt flour and too much vanilla extract. The lights were dimmed, casting a golden glow across the marble countertops. Matteo was beside me, wiping frosting off the edge of the stove, still chuckling under his breath. I leaned against the island, watching Eli where he lay curled up on the couch, a throw blanket draped over his legs, his chest rising and falling softly.“He passed out mid conversation,” I murmured, voice low so it wouldn’t wake him.Matteo glanced at Eli, his laugh softening into a smile. “He tried. God knows he tried. But once he sat down… it was over.”I couldn’t help the warm pull in my chest. Eli’s hair was a mess of curls, frosting clinging to the edge of his jaw where he’d missed a spot. His lips were parted, the faintest breath whistling out, peaceful and relaxed. He looked… safe. At ease.I walked over and knelt by the couch, brushing a strand of hair out of his face. “He l

  • Bound by blood and lies   CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTEEN

    Eli’s POVI didn’t expect to feel this light.After that intense showdown at the Nocturnal, I thought I’d carry the tension on my shoulders for the rest of the week. But as we walked out of the cathedral, shoulder to shoulder, with the cold night air wrapping around us like a second skin, there was something undeniably freeing in having said everything we did.We’d faced the Circle—every threat, every stare, every subtle insult—and we didn’t just survive, we left them speechless. That wasn’t just about pride. It was about reclaiming power. For ourselves. For our family.And tonight, we were going to celebrate.“Alright,” I clapped my hands together as we stepped into the kitchen, “how about we make a cake? A real one. From scratch.”Luca looked up from the glass of wine he was already sipping and raised a brow. “You? Bake? Do you know the difference between baking powder and baking soda?”“I know one makes it rise. The o

  • Bound by blood and lies   CHAPTER THIRTEEN (MATTEO'S POV)

    There was something off about Eli Parker.I wasn’t sure what it was at first. Maybe it was how he carried himself—too restrained, too controlled, like a man constantly measuring his every move. Or maybe it was the way he reacted at breakfast, that heavy tension in his shoulders when Luca questioned

    Eli was a terrible liar.I watched him over the rim of my coffee cup, studying every subtle shift in his posture—the way his shoulders tensed just a little too much, the way his fingers twitched around his fork, the way his breathing was slightly uneven.My amusement was growing with every nervous
