last update Last Updated: 2025-05-26 14:39:54

Damiano's POV

I was still deep in my thoughts when I heard a clicking sound coming from the entrance.

The door creaked open and soft footsteps entered.

I looked up, and there she was—Alessia Bianchi.

Her hair was pulled into a loose bun, her coat wrapped tightly around her, trying to look composed—but those green eyes betrayed her unease.

And for a second, I didn’t see a doctor.

"You're awake," she said quietly, stepping closer. Her voice was steady, but her hands clenched at her sides.

I didn’t speak. Not yet.

She looked beautiful and exhausted at the same time.

I let out a sigh as I looked away. What in hell's name was I doing admiring a she-devil?

"Are you going to say something or are you just going to sit there and let me wonder about how a man who had a huge piece of glass in his chest and went through hours of surgery is awake and sitting upright in just less than half an hour?" She rapped nonstop, the calm and steadiness from earlier completely gone.

I locked my eyes with he

  • Claimed by the Mafia King    Chapter Nineteen: It's about time

    Damiano's POV I didn't bother chasing her after she ran out of the door. I was sure she had gotten the message.When I turned around, I caught Leo staring at me."What?" I asked, not sure of what was going through his head.He shrugged. "Nothing, just curious.""About what?"He was silent at first before finally speaking up. "Don't you think you're letting her in a little too fast?"I frowned. "You sound like I'm some teenager crushing on a girl.""That's not what I mean," He added."Then you might as well speak clearly or don't speak at all," I muttered as I headed for bed.I laid down on it, waiting for him to speak. I guess he chose the other option. We both remained silent z not saying anything to each other, which was becoming frustrating. "Will you just say what the fuck is on your mind!" I snapped, unable to hold it in any longer.He let out a chuckle but stopped when I glared at him. "I'm not sure, I just think we shouldn't trust her.""Why? Is it because she looked like S

  • Claimed by the Mafia King    Chapter Eighteen: The sick amongst us

    Alessia's POV "Wait! What?!" I exclaimed the moment Damiano's words settled in. "You can't be serious!"He pouted his lips as he stared at me like a puppy waiting to be cuddled."Come on, Dr. Bianchi, do you want your patient's health to get worse?" He asked, a smug look creeping onto his face.He was insane. A few minutes ago, he was threatening to end my life, and now he wanted me to do what...move into his house? Like I was going to fall for such tricks.I knew what he was planning. He was going to kill me the moment I stepped foot into the Valentino mansion. Then my corpse would be found by the shore of the sea, or maybe even in a dumpster. Like hell, was I going to let that happen?I folded my arms, about to say something that would wipe that smug look off his face when Mr. Russo spoke up."I think it's a great idea."My jaw dropped, my eyes widening in disbelief. "But Sir, that's not possible!" I snapped.He turned to me, blinking. "Why isn't it possible?"I was silent for a

  • Claimed by the Mafia King    Chapter Seventeen : A threat

    Damiano's POV For some reason seeing her this way made me happy. The sweat that broke out on her forehead, the way her iris shook frantically, the way her heartbeat increased with each breath she took. It was something I was willing to get addicted to.Besides, it wasn't just a threat, I meant it. Also, I had to admit. She smelled really good. So good, I had to fight the urge growing inside of me. The beast in me wanted to break free and sink its teeth into the nape of her skin. But I couldn't do that here in the hospital. And I still had a lot of things I wanted to find out about her."Now do you understand?" I said as I stretched my arms towards her cheek, brushing some strands of hair away.She didn't push my hand away. Instead, she shut her eyes and looked away. I loved this her—the one that was actually scared—not the one that was trying to fake being brave.Watching her act so courageous was starting to get depressing."What do you want?" She asked, her eyes still shut. "Why

  • Claimed by the Mafia King    Chapter Sixteen : More Sercets

    Alessia's POV Our secrets?What exactly was he talking about?I swallowed hard as his words settled in, sending a shiver down my spine. He sounded like he knew a huge secret about me. "Well, would you like to go on?" He asked with a smug look on his face. He looked so confident it was kind of creepy.But I couldn't let him see that I was scared. That would only put me in more trouble.I forced a smile onto my face, steadying my gaze."I think you might be underestimating me, Damiano," I said, trying to mask the fear in my voice. "But out of curiosity, I would love to ask, what exactly do you know about me that should make me shiver in my boots?"He chuckled, his eyes sweeping my hair. He reached out grabbing a few strands, but I knocked his hand away. He laughed as he turned around, heading for his bed.Suddenly, he stopped halfway. "I wonder what the Director would say after I tell him about the story of a girl with red hair and...green eyes approaching me at a strip club. And the

  • Claimed by the Mafia King    Chapter Fourteen :A ride to clear my mind

    Damiano's POV A wave of silence washed over us as those words left my lips.Leo’s eyes narrowed. "Boss…""I’m not going to kill her. Not yet. But I want answers, and if I have to tear her mind apart to get them, I will."Leo nodded slightly. "And what do you need me to do?"I met his gaze, a few thoughts running through my mind. Finally, I said, "Get the director. Now."Leo hesitated for a moment—then nodded once more and turned toward the door. "I’ll be back in five," He said, reaching for the door. It clicked shut behind him.I exhaled sharply, dragging my hand across my chest where the bandages covered the wound. The ache wasn't just physical. The glass had cut across the part where Simona's hand had burned me.Thinking about it now, something was actually off.I had gone out for a ride to clear my mind. Simona and Serena had been appearing before me. But in modern outfits, as if they had existed in this time. Which they didn't. They had both died hundreds of years ago witho
