I was leaning against the wall outside her apartment, trying to give her space. I’d promised her I wouldn’t interfere. But the I heard the thud against the wall, and her broken voice gasping something I couldn’t quite make out?

All bets were off.

I didn’t fucking knock, I twisted the knob and walked in like it was my property—because right then, I felt like it was. She was.

And the first thing I saw was Carlos standing over her, hands clenched around her arms, face twisted with rage.

She looked like she had been slapped, tears streaking her cheeks, chest trembling like her body didn’t know what to do. He had backed her into a corner and he hadn’t noticed me yet.

I moved without a sound.

One second, he was yelling something in her face and the next, his feet were off the ground and I had him by the throat.

I slammed him against the wall so hard the drywall cracked behind his head. His eyes bulged and he clawed at my wrist like it’d make a difference.

  • I Saved the Mafia Boss—Now I'm His Obsession.    Chapter 90 - Half crazy most of the time.

    Adriano ⫘☠︎︎⫘ I stepped into our home first, flanked by Luca and Vincenzo and the second we hit the marble foyer, we heard it. Laughter. I paused halfway out of my coat and followed the sound down the hall. There they were, in the grand living room, Alessia sat on the couch with a cup of tea in one hand, head thrown back, laughing like that after days. Claire was beside her, trying to keep a straight face and failing miserably as she bounced Aurelia on her lap. The baby girl giggled, arms flailing, trying to slap a half-eaten cookie onto her mother’s blouse. Madeleine sat on the opposite couch, wearing one of the dresses I bought her this morning and looking like the sun had kissed her and never left. Her face was flushed from laughing too hard, and her hands were wrapped around a teacup she was clearly too distracted to drink from. Her hair was up in a messy bun, and Flan was curled up right in her lap. I wasn’t sure what had them all laughing so hard until I spotted Dante

  • I Saved the Mafia Boss—Now I'm His Obsession.    Chapter 89 - Villa Merlino

    Adriano ⫘☠︎︎⫘ Villa Merlino was half restaurant, half art gallery. Crystal chandeliers, and the walls were covered in oil paintings of long-dead women staring down at us like they knew where the bodies were buried. I sat with my back to the wall always and my eyes on the door. Vincenzo to my left, jaw tight, suit sharp enough to draw blood. Luca loitered near the front entrance like a statue that could rip your spine out with one hand. We brought no soldiers, just brothers as we agreed. The Lombardis showed up ten minutes late. Rino Lombardi walked in like his balls were dipped in gold and the world owed him a blowjob for it. Forty-four, built like a wrecking ball with a beard that probably had a few bullets lodged in it from past “negotiations" and arms like he could bench-press a coffin... with you in it. Women probably saw him and thought, daddy issues, solved. I saw him and thought, dead man walking. Remo followed a few paces behind, twitchy and pissed, like a dog kept t

  • I Saved the Mafia Boss—Now I'm His Obsession.    Chapter 88 - Emotional support ferret

    Madeleine 𓎢𓎠𑄻𑄾𓎠𓎡 “Where are we going?” I asked. “Somewhere you’ll like.” Which, in Adriano Capone language, meant: somewhere that’ll make me blush so hard I lose bone structure. He parked in front of a boutique with a name I couldn’t pronounce, one of those fancy places with gold lettering on the windows and mannequins wearing stuff that definitely didn’t have cotton lining or moral values. There was a faint scent of perfume in the air. The door opened with a little chime. “Oh,” I said, blinking, “We’re shopping.” Adriano slid his hand to the small of my back and guided me inside. “I don't need new clothes,” I whispered, eyeing a mannequin in thigh-highs and a leather corset. “You do,” he leaned in, his breath brushing my ear, “Underneath.” I spun to face him, “I own perfectly functional underwear, thank you very much, lots of cotton. Some of them even have hedgehogs.” “I’m burning them.” “You wouldn’t dare.” “I’ll light a cigar with them.” “Adriano.” He looked

  • I Saved the Mafia Boss—Now I'm His Obsession.    Chapter 87 - Colorblind Care Bear.

    Adriano ⫘☠︎︎⫘ The last time I stepped into a jewelry store, it was to pay off the owner for a diamond heist we didn’t do, just to piss off the Russians. This time, I was apparently ring shopping. For a girl who still wore mismatched socks and thought “soul ties” were a real thing. The store smelled like money and every display case had mood lighting like we were browsing holy relics instead of rocks some guy yanked out of volcanic piss millions of years ago. “Don’t make that face,” Aunt Alessia said beside me, pinching my elbow. “You’re not walking into a gunfight.” I glanced at her sideways. “Could be. Depends on the price tags.” She rolled her eyes and kept walking, heels tapping against the marble. I, on the other hand, had sweaty palms, not because of commitment. But because how the fuck do you pick one ring for a girl who thinks every stray cat is her biological child, talks to trees like they’ve got souls, and wears cartoon animals on her socks. A private concierge me

  • I Saved the Mafia Boss—Now I'm His Obsession.    Chapter 86 - You deserve someone

    Told from Afar 𓎢𓎠𓎟𖦁‎𓎟𓎠𓎡 Alessia sank into the leather backseat of the car, her coat still draped over her lap. The city lights streaked past her window, but her thoughts were still in the basement of Saint Agatha’s. Still echoing with Rino Lombardi’s voice. When the car finally slowed to a stop outside the Capone estate, Alessia stepped out into the chilled evening air and stood for a moment under the front arch. She needed a plan. A way to talk Vincenzo down from whatever hellfire he was preparing to unleash. Maybe this time, he’d listen. But not yet. Not before she checked on someone else. She crossed the foyer, her pace unhurried and turned down the east wing. Vincenzo’s side. But the second she stepped in, she knew it was empty. Claire wasn’t here. Alessia frowned. She retraced her steps, walking back through the main corridor, passing portraits and locked doors until she reached her own wing. She opened the door, already halfway thinking about kicking her heels

  • I Saved the Mafia Boss—Now I'm His Obsession.    Chapter 85 - GILF

    Told from Afar 𓎢𓎠𓎟𖦁‎𓎟𓎠𓎡 He turned slowly. His eyes found her, scanned her head to toe, neck, waist, legs, back up again. A dark smile curved his lips. “Look at you,” he said quietly, the smoke curling between them. “Dressed for a funeral. Is it mine or yours?” Alessia stepped forward, “That depends,” she said, “Are you here to kill me, Rino?” He smiled wider, “If I were, do you think I’d do it in a chapel? Even I’m not that blasphemous.” She rolled her eyes, “You’re plenty blasphemous... just not stupid.” She noticed that glint in his eye, the one she remembered from a thousand years ago, when she was young and furious and too naive to know what a man like Rino Lombardi could become. He tilted his head, that infuriating smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth. “Now what could the infamous ice queen Alessia Capone possibly have to say to a peasant like me?” She sighed, already tired of him, “Call your wolves off, Rino. Tell your son to stand down. Withdraw the demand fo
