Leonardo

The closer we moved towards the figure, the clearer it became that it was a man. Dressed in evening wear despite how remote the place was.

As we inched forward. He raised up a hand to signal for us to stop.

I applied brakes on the car and the car came to a stop just inches from him.

From the corner of my eye, I saw movement.

“Wait, let's hear what he says first.” I said to Cici because I knew how trigger happy he could get sometimes.

“He might be a ghost-”

“Shhh…” I

  • Contracted to the Mafia Boss Leonardo De Luca   Chapter 97 Keep your distance

    Leonardo The door closed behind Olivia and I stared at it for several seconds. Then I looked down at the file I was still holding. Olivia had remembered the day of the photographs. She remembered the man watching her and her father from across the street. She had remembered Elena. And most importantly, she remembered enough to know that whatever had happened to her father hadn't simply been bad luck. But she hadn't given me everything. I knew my wife well enough to recognize when she was hiding something. Olivia didn't lie easily. She didn't need to. She simply chose which pieces of the truth she was willing to hand you. And today, she'd handed me just enough to make me nearly dangerous. There had been an Elena. A woman who had disappeared from Olivia's father's house. A woman who had warned a nine-year-old girl about a man coming to collect on a deal. There was a missing piece. I just didn't know which one and where. I walked out of her room and back

  • Contracted to the Mafia Boss Leonardo De Luca   Chapter 96 The Why question

    Olivia I knew Leonardo was investigating my father before anyone told me. Men like Leonardo thought they were subtle. They weren't. A wife always knew when something was up. Especially when they were afraid of what they might find. I stood by the bedroom window, watching the black SUV disappear through the gates. Luther had left twenty minutes ago. Leonardo hadn't come with him which in itself was unusual. Normally, wherever Luther went, Leonardo wasn't far behind. But today, Leonardo had remained in his office. For hours and the door had stayed closed. No one had been allowed inside. Not even Rosa. That alone told me something was wrong plus since Cassie, I had a fine sense of what to look out for when it came to him. I turned away from the window. My eyes landed on the copy of a photograph that I had left on the dresser. It was the same photograph Leonardo had been staring at for days. The photograph of a little girl, which was me. I picked it up a

  • Contracted to the Mafia Boss Leonardo De Luca   Chapter 95 Why Henry

    Leonardo Sleep abandoned me before dawn, so I gave up trying. The photograph with the word FOUND lay on my night stand, refusing to let me look away from it. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Olivia's face, of cause, not the woman she was now. But the little girl in that photograph, the one who was watching and waiting. She looked like she already knew that life wasn't going to be kind to her, but more than anything, one question kept repeating itself. It wasn't about who Olivia was or why she had become the woman standing beside me today. The question was about me. It was about why I had settled her father's debt with marriage? Many men had owed me money before, and I had taken businesses, properties and accounts, even blood, but I had never married their daughters. So why Olivia? At the time, I had convinced myself it was punishment. Henry had gambled away money he couldn't repay. He had dragged his family into a mess that should have been his alone and Olivia h

  • Contracted to the Mafia Boss Leonardo De Luca   Chapter 94 Found

    LeonardoAfter an endless day of trying to put my ducks in a row, sleep refused to come.The mansion had long since surrendered to the night. The laughter that had echoed through the halls earlier was gone, replaced by the familiar silence that settled over the estate after midnight.I used to love this peacedful time until...well I started questioning my very existence. Now I hated the silence. It gave me too much time to think. The untouched glass of whiskey sat on the corner of my table, the ice having melted hours ago. Beside it lay the file Luther had left me earlier in the evening on Olivia. I'd been postponing going back to it all day but as I opened the door that led to my balcony, I felt it's weight around my hand again. I had read it so many times that I no longer saw words, just questions. I consoled myself that the file had been compiled at the last minute, surely whatever I had seem, Christopher probably didn't have the time to double check everything. Three deliber

  • Contracted to the Mafia Boss Leonardo De Luca   Chapter 93 The Unknown

    Leonardo The office door closed behind me with a solid click and I could breath again. Out there, people laughed. Dogs stole slippers. My wife smiled at my misery. But in here, reality waited. Luther stood by the window while I poured myself a whiskey I had no intention of drinking. "The shipment," I said. Luther who had been typing something on his phone answered, "Recovered boss, but the trucks were burned after the attack." "And the cargo?" I asked "Gone." He said. My jaw tightened. This was three months of negotiations. Thousands of rounds and not to mention millions of pounds and everything was gone overnight. "Did they leave a message?" Luther nodded once."They carved a symbol into the driver's chest." I didn't ask which who the symbol belonged to because I already had a feeling that Vincent was behind it. The bastard never hid behind anonymous killings. He wanted everyone to know he'd been there. Fear was his signature. I set the untouched glass o

  • Contracted to the Mafia Boss Leonardo De Luca   Chapter 92 Gone To Hell

    Olivia The silence after I mentioned Melanie was almost impressive. Leonardo stared at me, his coffee forgotten in his hand. Before either of us could say another word, footsteps echoed down the hallway. They were fast and measured. The only other person who walked like that other than Leonardo was one of his minions. True to form and shape, Luther appeared in the kitchen doorway, dressed in his usual black suit, his face giving away absolutely nothing. "Boss." He said Leonardo let out a quiet sigh. "What is it?" Luther's eyes briefly flickered toward me and CeCe. "We have a situation." "Of course we do," Leonardo muttered. CeCe quietly slid his toast onto a plate without much interest to whatever Luther was about to say. "I have somewhere to be." He remembered. "You sit back down," Leonardo said without looking at him. CeCe obediently sat and Luther continued as though nothing had happened. "The harbor called." He said and it was my turn to sigh inwardly whi
