The whole flight back to Manchester was a pain in the ass. I just tried to not mind how Adam was sitting next to me the whole time. Although he wasn’t talking to me, the mere sight of his serious face was enough to intimidate anyone, including me.

I thought we would head back to his house straight from the airport but I realized we were taking another route, which I think is going far north.

“Where are we going?” I asked the stone-cold man sitting next to me in his luxurious Rolls Royce. “I don’t think we are heading to your place.”

“We are heading to a hotel to meet a business associate of mine,” he answered flatly.

“Then why do I have to go with you? You should have told me earlier. I would have hailed a cab back to

  • Deceiving the Mafia Lord   Epilogue

    Eve’s POVTears of joy rolled down my cheeks when I read what is written in the invitation delivered to me. Landon, who was carrying our little girl in his arms, went to me with an alarmed face when he saw my expression.“What is wrong?”I shook my head and smiled. “I’m just happy.”“Happy about what?”His eyes drifted to the invitation card I was holding.“Carter is getting married?” His gaze went back to me and I saw his worried face as if something is wrong with me, or that I feel bad about it and he wants to comfort me or something.“Yes.” Whoever this Lea Da Vinci is, I am happy that she filled the hollow part in Carter’s heart. He is such a good man and I have been waiting for this day to come. For him to be finally happy again. For him to be loved again the way he deserves to be. And I feel so glad

  • Deceiving the Mafia Lord   130: Happy Ending

    One would really doubt if he would know my history and how I ended up lying on the sacrificial table voluntarily as an offering for whatever ritual this is. The night after I came to see Alec is the month's full moon—the day of the ritual. Alec must be so happy that I am finally making his dream come true. I could see it in his eyes. Though, I could also see that he felt not the least bit of remorse for what is about to happen. All I could see in his eyes is pure excitement, joy and nothing else. He will never regret this for sure. He has no conscience.On the other hand, I know how Elizabeth would feel if she would wake up in another person's body who looks exactly like her and know that for her to come back, she needed to kick out the poor girl's soul out of her own body so she can replace it. She would feel real bad for sure. She would despise Alec more than what she did before. She would also despise herself for being the cause of it al

  • Deceiving the Mafia Lord   129: Rot in Hell

    Alec couldn’t speak in too much irritation and probably, anger. His eyes were so red, like the color of evil itself. The color of blood and war. The color of death. Yes, red can symbolize love like that of a rose. But it could symbolize many things such as what I have mentioned already.I know what I am doing is a big risk, but I have to try regardless. I need to save the innocent lives of those people who chose to stand by my side. They don’t deserve death like that especially when Alec is the one serving it. He is evil. His soul—if ever he has one which I doubt—deserves to rot in hell all together with his evil subordinates, especially Vienna. If only I am given a chance, I will really kill her. With the anger I am feeling for her, I won’t miss it for sure. She is just lucky that I am not capable enough to do that especially with the given circumstance. Because if only I was capable enough and there is no Alec bloc

  • Deceiving the Mafia Lord   128: Play Her Game

    “I’m so sorry, Landon,” I whispered in the wind softly, silently wishing that it will bring those words to where it is ought to be. I shut my eyes closed and reminisced about my good memories with him because I don’t know if I will have another chance later on. Not that I am announcing my death. I just want to be open for possibilities. After all, to be ready for the worst is something good. It is better actually.When I was finally out of the cab, I sucked on my breath when I saw what was waiting for me. it was like an ancient castle. Somewhat like those abandoned castles of the villains in fairytales. Only that this time I am not in fairytale. And I am certainly not a princess who would be saved by her prince charming and have a happy ending later on. I had already tasted my happy ending. It wasn’t meant to last, though. I already accepted that. My life sucks. And I’m going to make it worse. Or maybe better s

  • Deceiving the Mafia Lord   127: Dangerous Decision

    Back when I was young, my dream was simple. Stay out of troubles, earn a medical degree, make a good career, marry later on to my boyfriend at that time and have kids, maybe two or three. I envy those big families so I wanted to make my own. Maybe because I grew up in a broken family and I felt lonely. When Dad remarried to a woman who has a daughter same age as me, I thought I would finally have someone I can call as sister. I wanted a sibling. I wanted a normal happy family. But turns out that I would be kicked out in my own house because of her. Not that I was literally kicked out though since I left myself. But it is still the same for me because I knew I had no choice but to leave. It was getting worse every day and I don’t want Dad to worry about my issues. I went to Lynnwood, hoping I would calm down there and I also hoped that my stay in a new surrounding would bring good to me.However, looking back now, I can say that it brought m

  • Deceiving the Mafia Lord   126: Please Survive

    "Can I talk to you?" I was surprised when Carter went to me that afternoon after we had a short meeting about the plans for tomorrow.Landon looked our way. I smiled a little to him, my way of silently telling him that it's okay. I brought my gaze back to Carter and I nodded.We walked to the backyard of the house. There was silence between us and it felt so odd. I could remember vividly what all that happened to us, and now it only felt like a far away dream. Something I can never touch again. A place I can think about but will never reach again. Even so, I didn't regret ending what was between us. He might be my first true love, but Landon is my great love. I hope that is enough to differentiate the two."I just want to say sorry about the last time we talked. It didn't end good," he was the one who broke his silence."It's alright. I know you were hurt. In fact, I should be the one apologizing, not you."He gave me a sad smile. "I'm glad that yo
