Then, a sudden thud broke the silence between us followed by a woman’s scream tearing through the night.

I jerked, my hand flying to my chest.

“Oh my God, what was that?” I gasped, heart knocking against my ribs like it wanted out.

Adriano didn’t even flinch. Instead, he let out this low, rumbling laugh. His eyes dropped to the ground as he bit down on his bottom lip, that kind of slow, wicked bite that looked like it belonged in a movie not real life. He shook his head, eyes gleaming, then tilted his face to the sky like the stars were in on the joke with him.

“Adriano.” I looked around, eyes wide, “Seriously. What was that?”

He just glanced at me from the corner of his eye, too relaxed for someone who’d just heard a woman scream.

Then it came again, “Ah! AH—yes, yes, yes, oh fuck—yes!” her voice echoed from somewhere downstairs.

I froze.

My mouth parted slightly, “Oh,” I said softly, blinking, “Oh,” the tips of my ears went hot, “That... wasn’t,

Hey everyone! 💌 I know the story’s been very focused on Madeleine and Adriano's dynamic lately but don’t worry, the mafia action is coming. XOXO 💋

  • I Saved the Mafia Boss—Now I'm His Obsession.    Chapter 94 - Settle it the old-fashioned way.

    Madeleine 𓎢𓎠𑄻𑄾𓎠𓎡 If someone had told sixteen-year-old me back when I was sneaking into the U.S. with my heart in my throat and one suitcase to my name that one day I’d be wedding dress shopping in a luxury Chicago bridal atelier, I would’ve laughed. Yet here I was. Standing in a room, surrounded by crystal chandeliers, full-length gold mirrors, and wedding dresses that looked like they belonged behind glass at a museum. And in the middle of it all? My people. Claire and Alessia sat like they were the only two that belonged here, both in silk trench coats and impossibly high heels, sipping tiny espressos with the kind of grace that made even the sales associates stand straighter. Why do I feel like they’re secretly planning to baptize me into the Church of High Fashion the second I sign that marriage certificate? My mom and Tia Pati, on the other hand, were already elbow-deep in a rack labeled “Sample Clearance,” whispering to each other in Portuguese. I sat on a tuf

  • I Saved the Mafia Boss—Now I'm His Obsession.    Chapter 93 - My Violent Era

    Madeleine 𓎢𓎠𑄻𑄾𓎠𓎡 The bakery was tucked into a quiet little corner of the city, all soft pastels and exposed brick walls, with warm lighting and the scent of vanilla hanging in the air. The table they set up for us was tiny and round, with lace-edged napkins and silver forks that looked too delicate to be real. Adriano stood behind me, not next to me, but behind me. He couldn’t trust a single chair to keep him from touching me for longer than ten seconds. His arms were wrapped low around my waist, chest pressed to my back. Sometimes his chin rested on the top of my head, other times on my shoulder, especially when he leaned in to whisper something that made my cheeks flush and my heart tumble. “Too fancy for you?” he murmured near my ear, his chin resting lightly on my shoulder. “I feel like I should’ve worn gloves and a bonnet,” I whispered back. He let out a laugh, “You look perfect. I’d eat you instead of the cake, but that would probably get us kicked out.”

  • I Saved the Mafia Boss—Now I'm His Obsession.    Chapter 92 - Wasn’t an accident.

    Madeleine 𓎢𓎠𑄻𑄾𓎠𓎡 I couldn’t believe it. I was getting married. Married. I was sprawled in the middle of the living room. Adriano had lent an entire small estate for my family to stay in. I was wearing an oversized hoodie and pajama shorts. My left hand was stretched out in front of me like I was directing air traffic, just so everyone could get a proper look at the ring. Not a ring. The ring. Big, beautiful and sparkling. “Oh meu Deus,” my mother whispered for the fourteenth time, her fingers hovering just above my hand like she was scared to touch it and accidentally summon a car alarm. “Madeleine Júlia, this diamond is the size of a frango assado!” “It’s brighter than your future,” sofi said flatly, recording it for her I*******m story. “You might dislocate your shoulder if you keep holding it up like that,” Uncle Jorginho added with a laugh. My dad hadn’t spoken in three full minutes. He just kept staring at the ring like it was going to ask him for rent money.

  • I Saved the Mafia Boss—Now I'm His Obsession.    Chapter 91 - Under the stars.

    Madeleine 𓎢𓎠𑄻𑄾𓎠𓎡 The auditorium was loud with excitement, the kind that made your stomach feel like it was full of butterflies with coffee addictions. I sat in the second row, cap bobby-pinned to my head, gown a little wrinkled no matter how many times I’d tried to smooth it out. I could smell someone’s floral perfume in the row ahead of me, and underneath that, the faint chemical tang of veterinary antiseptic still clinging to my fingers no matter how many times I washed my hands. I kept twisting my class ring around my thumb. Clockwise. Counter-clockwise. My name was in the program. My name. Madeleine Cordeiro. I stared at it for a long time. It looked so real there, so official. It was the proof I’d actually made it. We were graduating. I was graduating. I was going to be a veterinary technician. I could poke cats in the butt with thermometers and do blood draws and explain post-op instructions. My smile kept twitching around the edges. I was proud, really, I was, but I

  • 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

  • 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 do
