[Addison]

Breathe, Addison. Just need to remember to breathe.

Livy squeezes my hand as we watch the smoke curling in the frame of the video screen. Her little body shakes next to mine as I do my best to stand firm and hide my fear.

No-one is coming to save us this time. Even if someone were on the other side of the door able to open the way, the villain at the gate would stop them.

It's up to me to save us both.

Through the speaker, I can hear Mr. D cackling as he watches the bedroom burn. “Come out, Mrs Stone. You know it’s hopeless. We have this place surrounded. And by now, your precious protector is surrounded by my men."

"Is there any way we can talk to him?" I turn to Sally.

Her face goes very blank. "No, Ma'am."

She's lying.

"Give yourself up, Mrs. Stone and I'll leave the little girl alone," Mr. D crosses his heart dramatically for the camera, knowing exactly where to look. "I promise."

I'm not stupid enough to believe his words, but I don't like that I'm stuck here, unab

  • Divorced But Desired by the Mafia King   Chapter 143

    There's a tinge of pain in my lower back. This idiot! I could miscarry my precious baby because of his lack of tact. Just because his testosterone addled brain wanted to make a point, he decided to throw me to the ground without warning! I thought I was coming here for weapons training, not to be thrown around like a doll. Even if I werent' pregnant, that oculd have hurt me. Thankfully, I don't feel any of the tell-tale twinges I felt in the past when that occured. Even so, I'm texting Tracy as soon as I can get of this blasted mat. We're going to do a full check up. I don't care if the guards have questions about whether or not I'm at a fertlity clinic.Maybe it's time to tell them the truth. If I keep this hidden much longer, something might happen by accident. I'd hate to lose my chance at revenge, but I don't want to lose this baby. Not only because it's my last chance at being a mother, but because it is all I have left of him. Grabbing my wrists, Mason holds my hands over my h

  • Divorced But Desired by the Mafia King   Chapter 142

    My beloved’s name dies on my lips as the man turns to face me. This man is not Hunter. I must be hallucinating to mix the two of them up. Hunter is such a singular person, a man who fills a space with his aura, this man is nothing like that.He has his height and girth, but everything else is different. Hunter has a strong jawline and high cheekbones, dark brown hair large navy blue eyes so deep you could fall into them forever.This man has a friendly, heart-shaped face with bright blue eyes and blonde curly hair. He looks nothing like Hunter. I just miss him so much that my mind is making fantasies for my heart to hold onto. “Are you okay?” the man's face falls nervously. “You seem pale.” I can’t tell him what I just thought, that he is my lost fiance. Lots of men have deep voices and wide shoulders. If I tell him the truth, he’ll think I’m a lunatic. Or possibly too emotionally unstable to start this training. I can’t have that. I need this training. If I’m going to be a part o

  • Divorced But Desired by the Mafia King   Chapter 141

    [Addison]Why is Evelyn working at Livy’s school? Is it to get back at my family? Is she planning to hurt us in some way, to get revenge for the divorce?No. I'm thinking too much into this. She's a teacher by trade, and I'm sure that she loves her work. Even pregnant, she must get lonely. Why else would she exhaust herself working when she's so close to being due?Pressing my hand to my belly I can't help but smirk. I'm being a hypocrite. Not only am I still working, but I'm hiding my pregnancy. Depending on how long this case goes, I may work for its entirety, only stopping if the baby is at risk. I love what I do and it has value and meaning. I'm doing good work, especially now that I'm a part of Black Eagle. I won't let thugs like Debrassy ruin my family or my city. The manner looks beautiful. Even the antique roses have been replaced and new plants are starting to bloom. The home was one of the oldest in town, and most of the brick survived. It's quite a wonder what the contract

  • Divorced But Desired by the Mafia King   Chapter 140

    [Vanessa] Last week, my world changed forever, again. It’s crazy how many twists and turns we can face in one lifetime. Just a few months ago I was a housewife and part-time paralegal married to a man I thought loved me unconditionally, with a son who was my entire universe. That world ended the day Evelyn Valentine entered my world. My husband’s first love, that homewrecker destroyed a world I never knew was so fragile. I never knew my family existed on borrowed time, living on a thin layer of ice easily shattered by the machinations of one determined woman. As to why she came into our lives in the first place, I still don’t understand. Was it just to steal my wealth, money Michael had been secretly funneling away for years, or was it to take my place as his wife. It doesn’t matter anymore. She’s not a part of my life. Evelyn can have Michael and the crumbs of that old life. I’ve shed it like old skin, emerging as something bigger and stronger than before. “Ma’am,” there’s a knock

  • Divorced But Desired by the Mafia King   Chapter 139

    [Hunter]Watching her fall apart without me has been a singular type of self-inflicted torture. I made this nightmare for myself when I told everyone to keep me dead, to keep me hidden, all so that we could lure the enemy into a false sense of security.Behind these cameras, I've witnessed every hidden tear, every time she sucks in her breath and takes a moment to steady herself before entering a room. I don't have eyes inside of our suite, but I see how every night she's only moments away from falling apart as she wishes Charley a good evening. I hear her screams of agony in the night when she thinks nobody is listening. Every moment of heartbreak. Every time she whispers my name and places her hand on my heart when she thinks no one is looking.--every bit of it is all my fault. Watching over her is my penance and my duty. It was my decision to go into Code Black and hide my plans from everyone, including my own second in command.I just had no idea how hard it would be to carry th

  • Divorced But Desired by the Mafia King   Chapter 138

    [Vanessa]Looking at the offered hand, I hesitate. The blonde, Ms. Smith, exchanges looks with Mr. Carter, and then the professor, as if trying to decide what they should do. Were they expecting me to jump at the chance to join the same shadow organization that probably led to my beloved's death. Yes, serving as an agent of Black Eagle, infiltrating CCRP, and finding a way to bring Debrassy down would be a perfect opportunity to find my revenge against that family-murdering bastard, but it almost feels too perfect--like it's being handed to me.Maybe it's because of everything I had to go through with Michael and all the secrets that were hiding underneath the surface. Maybe it is because Hunter, despite how much he loved me, had a ton of dangerous secrets of his own, secrets that led to his demise.Or maybe, it's my own secrets, the ones that are keeping me stuck between identities.Regardless of the reasons, it feels like this offer is coming out of the blue. How would the head of B
