“It’s time to go, Arianna,” Enzo said, his voice clipped.

“Yes, I’m going,” I murmured, hugging Bianca tightly. I leaned close, my lips brushing my cousin’s ear. “I’ll call you later and explain.”

Bianca gave a small nod, eyes heavy with things unsaid. We let go reluctantly.

Before I could even take a step, one of Enzo’s men approached. I remembered his name—Fabrizio. His dark eyes didn’t move from Bianca. And the second Bianca noticed him, her gaze dropped to the floor, shoulders curving in on themselves like she wanted to disappear.

I swore I saw my cousin shiver.

“The pilot called. The jet is waiting,” Fabrizio announced, but his stare never left Bianca.

I felt a knot in my stomach. Something about the way he looked at my cousin made my skin prickle. There was a story there, one I didn’t understand yet—but I would.

“Let’s go,” Enzo ordered, his hand curling around my arm again.

“I’ll call you when I get there,” I said loudly enough for Bianca to hear, ignoring the way Enzo’

  • Contract Marriage to the Cold Hearted Mafia Boss    Chapter 92: You're going to be a Father

    EnzoMy reddened eyes cannot turn away from the image on the phone—her unconscious body hanging from the hook as if she were an animal. Seeing her delicate, creamy skin bruised turns my stomach, and I have to contain the urge to vomit. I zoom in on the photo and slide my finger over her lips, feeling my blood boil when I see her blood spilled. My hands tremble, and impotence collides with rage and desperation in my throat."Stop torturing yourself looking at that," says Antonio, who arrives behind me and places a hand on my shoulder. "We're going to find her, Enzo. I promise we're going to find her."I turn around to face him, feeling like a caged animal."And in the meantime, what? I sit here while she is God knows where, enduring—" The words get stuck in my throat because I'm incapable of even pronouncing it. "I can't, Antonio. I can't stay here."I try to leave, but he intercepts me, making my anger increase."Calm down, please. We won't achieve anything like this!"I push him hard

    AriannaMy body collapsed, overcome by pain, further straining my already injured shoulders. My head also slumped onto my chest, which found it increasingly difficult to expand to draw breath.The damn son of a bitch showed my bloody hand to the camera and laughed."One out of ten, Butcher," he celebrated like the sick man he was. "I hope you're having a nice night, because I'm having a wonderful time with your wife." He turned back toward me and gripped my face by the chin to make me look at him. "Ready to talk, or shall we continue with the other hand?""I don't know... I don't know anything," I mumbled brokenly, my voice strangled."Alright, there's no hurry. We have all night to amuse ourselves. Let's hope your little husband is smarter than you and is willing to sacrifice himself for you, just as you are doing for him."He took my other hand, and I only focused on my son to withstand the pain when he ripped off the other nail. My body gave way with the scream, and I felt the liga

    AriannaThe ice-cold water permeated my bones, causing a shudder, bringing me back to the horrible moment. I had lost consciousness and didn't even know when. I thought it was after the bastard put out the fifth cigarette on the sole of my foot, which were already raw flesh, making it hell to put weight on them. So, my already collapsed brain had to decide what kind of pain it preferred: supporting the weight of my body on my shattered feet or letting myself drop and having my already nearly dislocated shoulders hold me up.There was no correct decision; both options were shit, so I alternated between one and the other, repeating every second that I must resist, that my baby depended on me, although I had no damn idea how I was going to get out of here.The Russian gripped my face, squeezing my cheeks too hard between his fingers, hurting my already cracked lips even more."Look at me!" he ordered. "Don't pass out again. I want you conscious. You're useless to me asleep.""I'm sorry,"

    Arianna"My baby."I knew I had to protect my child. I had to endure. I had to get out of here alive, not for myself, but for him.They led me down a narrow corridor, and my attempts to break free were in vain. The guy was twice my height and three times my weight. I didn't stand the slightest chance against him, and struggling only managed to hurt me more.We entered another room, slightly larger than the previous one but much more sinister. Inside, there were already several men, all dressed in black, and terror flared up in my chest."What are you going to do to me?" I questioned, terrified. "Why are you bringing me here?" The man lowered me, and as soon as my bare feet touched the floor, two more men grabbed me. "Don't hurt me, please, don't do anything to me," I begged, dropping my mask of indifference and showing my vulnerability."You already know what you have to do," my captor replied with total serenity as he walked toward a table in the center of the room. My eyes widened w

    AriannaAn imaginary hammer violently strikes my head, and when the pain becomes unbearable, I open my eyes, disoriented. The place is dark, and it's hard for me to adjust. I blink a couple of times to see something, and after a few seconds, I do, but I don't recognize anything. It's just a dirty, cold room with a mattress on the floor where I'm lying. There's a chair in front of me, but nothing else.My heart begins to pound as fear starts to gain ground. I try to sit up to look for a way out, but my hands and feet are tied. With great effort, I manage to sit.Where am I?The answer to that question terrifies me because I don't want to believe what I'm thinking; I don't want to believe that this is really happening.The creak of the door opening startles me, and the halo of light that streams in allows me to see a little better around me, although nothing is encouraging or gives me a clue as to where I might be. A tall, well-built blonde man with a murderous expression enters, increa

    Enzo"You think if she were in her bed, I would be here, Marco?" I hit his head with the gun, and he holds back a groan of pain. "What did she go to that pharmacy for? Who did she see? Who the hell helped her?!""I don't know! I swear, I don't know anything!""She trusts you, Marco, and I thought I had made it clear to you where your loyalty should lie.""I am clear, sir. My loyalty is with you, with the organization. I swear I've only watched over her as you asked. Let me look for her. Let me find out what happened and bring her back. Let's not waste time."The bastard is right about one thing: I can't waste any more time. I pull him up and knee him in the stomach, just to vent, and throw him to the ground."Someone here helped her escape!" I yell at everyone. "One of you is a damn traitor, and no one is leaving here until the rat talks!"I shoot one of them at random in the knee. I don't kill him because I need them all alive so they can talk. The man falls with a scream. The rest l
