In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss The confession
(Lisa's POV)* "Kill her," Salvatore instructed his men. My heart raced with fear as one of them brought the knife to my neck, Salvatore smirking at me. I screamed, struggling to break free, wishing I hadn't come here in the first place. Just when one of his men was about to slit my throat, he signaled him to stop. I let out a breath of relief, even though I knew I wasn't safe yet. "I'm sure Alessio will come here in search of you. How about we play a little game of survival? I'd risk your life, and it's either Alessio saves you, or you save yourself," he said, smirking like a psychopath. I struggled against the men who held me with their strong arms. "Why are you doing this to me, Salvatore? What have I done wrong?!" I screamed at the top of my lungs, even though I was terrified. I was just praying that Alessio would come to my rescue, just like he always had, even if I hated myself for always stressing him out. Salvatore lowered his head toward me, his breath fanning

(Lisa's POV) "I love you so much, Alessio," I said again, sniffing back my tears, but he only stared at me without saying a word. Was he surprised that I had confessed my feelings out of the blue? I hadn’t expected to love him this much either. He can't possibly send me back to California—not when my heart calls his name all the time. A few months ago, I would have gladly gone home without looking back, but things are different now. I have made memories with him here. They may not be the cutest memories any woman would have with her man, but I treasure them because I know he isn't an ordinary man. "Ivan," he finally spoke after a few moments of silence, and my teary eyes shifted to Ivan. I had even forgotten he was still in the room with us. "Yes, boss," Ivan answered. "Excuse us for a moment," Alessio said, and Ivan left without hesitation. After Ivan left, silence resumed. He wasn’t saying anything—his dark brown eyes were just fixed on me. "Why aren't you saying a

(Alessio's POV) "I love you so much, Alessio." It was the best thing I had ever heard. Lisa confessed her feelings for me. I hadn't seen it coming, which was why I was speechless for a moment. Even though I didn’t show how happy I was about her confession, my heart was throwing a festival of celebration. "And how do those romantic men on TV treat their women? I want to learn," I whispered to her. I wasn’t the typical romantic man, given how I was raised, but I was ready to learn—at least a little—just for her sake. She fell in love with me despite the kind of world I live in. The least I could do was make her happy, since I couldn't tell her how madly and crazily I was in love with her. Lisa placed her hand under her jaw, deep in thought, while I admired the beautiful creature in front of me. "Well, since you're new to this, you should start with something small," she grinned. "Which is?" I whispered, staring into her hazel eyes. "Feeding me," she simpered, her cheek

(Lisa's POV) "Please, Alessio," I pleaded for the umpteenth time as I followed him around his suite. "I already said I'm going to get it for you," he replied, walking to his wristwatch collection. I followed him from behind. "I know you said you would buy the velvet cake for me, but I want to go with you." "Don't be stubborn, Lisa," he groaned. "I'm not being stubborn. I just want to go with you. It's boring in here," I pouted. "That's why Isabella is here. It's her job to keep you company. Also, Vanessa—you consider her a mother figure, right? Talk to them, and I will be back before you know it," he said, putting on his shirt. "But I want to go with you. I don't want to talk to them today. I don't want to keep staying at home. I'm not allergic to the sun." "I never said you were," he murmured. "Then let me go with you. You will be with me, right? So there's nothing to worry about. The Godfather hasn't said anything in over a week now," I remarked. "And that makes

(Lisa's POV) "What stupid deal are you trying to make with the Godfather? Who do you think you are to make a deal with him?!" Bianca snapped at me. I was scared of her, but this time, I decided not to show it. She was a fellow woman like me, and even though she was part of Alessio's underworld, I shouldn't show any signs of fear. "I wasn't talking to you, Bianca. You should mind your business," I shot back, making sure my eyes held no fear. "You've really got some nerve talking to me like that, weakling!" she spat as she stood up, supporting herself with the walking stick she was holding. I looked down at her legs and saw they were bandaged. "You better sit back on the sofa, Bianca. It would save you the stress since you have three legs now," I said fearlessly. Yeah, that's what I should do. Talk back when she talks to me. I'm Alessio's woman—I have nothing to fear. "How dare you speak to me that way?!" Bianca thundered, raising her hand to slap me, but Salvatore stopp

(Alessio's POV) "Here's your velvet cake, sir," a man said to me as he handed me the box of velvet cake. I paid for it and went back to my car, with the thought Lisa couldn't wait to eat her favorite cake. But as I reached my car, the cake slipped from my hand, and the smile I was wearing disappeared when I didn't see Lisa inside. I entered my car, looking around as if she were some sort of needle that would be hard to find. Then I noticed that the glove box of my car was open, and a few euros were missing. "Where did she go?" I muttered. I got out of the car and strode toward a lady who has a small kiosk where she sells fruits. "Did you see a woman leaving that car?" I asked, speaking in Italian and pointing at my car. "What woman?" "She has blonde hair. She doesn’t look Italian," I said, hoping she had seen Lisa. The woman thought for a moment, and I tried my best to be patient so she would give me the answer I was looking for. "I didn't see a woman coming out of y

(Writer's POV) "I'm telling you, Godfather, you made a mistake accepting that deal with Lisa! Why would you even make such a deal with a weakling?" she stated, letting her anger be known to him. "That's why I agreed to her deal, Bianca," Salvatore smirked, and Bianca furrowed her eyebrows, wondering what he meant. She was furious when Salvatore accepted Lisa's deal, and her anger intensified even more when Lisa didn’t tremble upon seeing her, unlike the first time at the hospital. "What point are you trying to make here, Godfather?" Bianca asked. "Do you really think she will be able to train and accomplish a mission in just two months?" Salvatore smirked and continued. "I only agreed because I know she is going to fail, which means it will be easy to kill her," Salvatore explained, and Bianca smiled. It was almost laughable when Lisa proposed the deal, and he agreed to it because Lisa wasn’t just weak, she had no knowledge of martial arts or handling guns. Learning all of

(Lisa's POV) "What were you thinking, making such a deal with the Godfather, Lisa?!" Isabella scolded me. "Don't tell me you're going to scold me the same way Alessio did," I muttered. Ever since I left his suite yesterday, he hasn't talked to me, and I couldn't go to his suite since I was the one who left on my own and even slammed the door in his face. "If I could scold you with more than words, I would gladly do it! What were you thinking, Lisa? The Godfather isn't someone who goes back on his word. I trained to be a mobster at the clan for three years—three fucking years, Lisa! And I'm still average when it comes to martial arts. So how can you achieve such a feat in just two months? You should have thought about it more before making such a deal with him," Isabella said. She was right. I didn't think at all. I just went with what my heart told me, and I did it. But still, I wanted to believe I could do it. If Salvatore was really a man of his word, then I had nothin

(Lisa's POV) I went back to the head teacher's office with Alessia, and Kayla's mom smirked at me, her arms crossed. "Are you here to finally kneel before me?" she asked, her voice laced with pride. My anger was burning, but I was trying my best to stay calm, and it was all for Alessia. "I thought this was a preschool where kids are brought up in love, without anyone being treated unfairly." "What are you talking about, Ms. Simpsons? You should be apologizing, not telling us how to handle this school. We treat every kid equally," the head teacher said, while Kayla's mom blew air onto her manicured nails, awaiting an apology that would never come. "You call this treating every kid here equally?" I fumed, showing them the bitten wound on Alessia's wrist. "Kayla was the one who bit my daughter first, and rather than handling the situation equally, you pinned the blame on my daughter!" I snapped at Alessia's teacher. Being a mother has really changed me a lot. I was no longer the
In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss Brimming with anger
(Lisa's POV) "Thank you so much, mister!" I thanked the repairman with so much excitement in my voice after he handed the phone to me. "It wasn't easy to bring it back to life, but I'm glad I did," he said, smiling back at me. I grinned at him, placing the phone on my chest with a broad smile. "The phone must be of sentimental value to you, right?" he asked, and I nodded with a smile. "Was it given to you by your boyfriend?" he teased, but I covered his question with a laugh. I paid him for his service before leaving. The excitement inside of me didn’t leave my face for even a second. I was just so happy to have the phone back to life. Returning home, I sat on the sofa, watching the videos of Alessio from five years ago. It’s been five years, but I never get tired of watching him. I was addicted to watching the videos of him, and anytime I did, I always had this sad smile on my face. Oftentimes, I wondered how life would have been for the both of us if I hadn’t betrayed
In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss Aid of a condom
(Alessio's POV) It's her birthday today… it's something I can't forget, since everything about her was stuck in my brain like a tattoo. If she were here, we'd be celebrating her birthday, but I don't want her to be here, neither do I want to see her. Five years have passed, but the pain still lingers as if everything had happened yesterday. Her betrayal is still intact, and the pain she inflicted on me when she betrayed me is still fresh. It's like it never heals no matter how much time has passed, and it only makes me burn in fury. Do I still hate her? That I can't really tell, but one thing is for sure, I never want to see her face again. It would only remind me of how much of a fool I was for falling in love with a woman like her. She took my love for her for granted. Even when I didn't tell her how much I loved her five years ago, I did say it so many times through my actions and the way I treated her differently. I never want to see her face. She and my mom are
In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss Oddly familiar
(Lisa's POV) "I think it's best if you get a new phone, Miss," the phone repairman advised, but I shook my head in disagreement. It was my very first gift from Alessio, and I couldn't let go of it. It's been five years since I last saw Alessio. Five years, but nothing seems to have changed. The feelings I have for him was still there like it was just yesterday, but my betrayal toward him still haunts me in my quiet moments. Every day I long for him—for his smile, for his touch, and to hear the way he talks. But I was scared... scared to reach out to him and most especially scared to go to Italy. I knew I could easily see him if I went to Italy, but the deadly warnings he gave me before we separated were still fresh in my ears, so I couldn't dare go back to Italy even if I desperately longed to. The only thing that was left with me were the memories of my life with him, before my unforgettable betrayal. "You need to try your best. The phone is important to me, and it's not so

(Lisa's POV) "It's been a while, Lisa. How have you been?" Nathan asked me with a smile. I furrowed my brows at him, wondering if he had forgotten what he did to me, but nevertheless, I beamed a smile at him. If he hadn't shattered my heart, I wouldn't have gotten the chance to know a man like Alessio. "I've been good. What about you?" I asked, trying my best to be formal. There was no reason to be informal with him. "I've been good too. Where have you been all this while? I constantly go to your workplace, but all what your boss keep saying is that you're on a business trip. I couldn't go to your dad, because you must've told him what I did to you." "Exactly, Nathan. I'm glad you still remember what you did to me. So why do you keep going to my boss asking about me?" I asked sharply. "It's because I miss you, Lisa," he murmured, and I chuckled, finding his words so funny. "You miss me? What about the woman you were with? Didn't she sponsor your business like you claimed
In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss Like a bubble
(Lisa's POV) I betrayed the man I love and the man who loves me, and no matter what my reasons were, it wasn't justified. I had a chance to ask him about it, but rather than confronting him, I acted rashly. He lost everything. A lot of innocent souls died because of me, and it's best if I leave. If he had wanted to kill me, I would have accepted it, but since he wanted me out of his life, I will do as he says, even though it hurts being separated from him. Staring at the entrance of the airport, my tears fell down my cheeks, but I wiped them off with a sob. With the despicable thing I have done, I don't know if I could live a normal life. I will forever be haunted for betraying him and for killing innocent souls. I sniffled one last time. I made to enter the airport, but I bumped into someone. "I'm sorry," I managed to say, but fresh tears fell from my eyes and down to my cheeks when I saw I had bumped into Angelo. "Angelo," I said, nearly breaking into tears. I had

(Alessio's POV) "How long have I been unconscious?" I asked. "For a few days," Ivan answered. I sighed, trying to sit up on the bed, but Ivan quickly stopped me from doing so. "You shouldn't do that yet. Your wounds are still fresh," he said, but I ignored him and sat up on the bed, enduring the pain. Every part of my body was filled with injuries. It hurt and itched at the same time. "Where's Salvatore?" "He left a few minutes before you woke up," Ivan replied. "Is it true that Enzo destroyed everything, including my house and the clan?" Ivan looked at me and sadly nodded his head. "We lost the mobsters at the clan. The innocent maids also died from the explosion." "No single person survived?" I asked, hiding how bad I felt. "No one, Boss Alessio. We have nothing left," Ivan answered, wiping his tears, as he was too emotional to control them. I failed to protect my men. If I hadn't been trapped under Enzo's custody, none of this would have happened. "Aren’
In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss Dirty plans
(Writer's POV) "What did I just hear you just say? You gave who to who?" Salvatore sneered. He had booked an early flight to Rome so he could know the happenings of the clan, only for him to meet dead monsters and a destroyed clan. Lisa took in her lips, unable to say anything. Salvatore had always said she'd betray Alessio, and she felt so embarrassed because his instinct came to pass. She betrayed the man who loves her. A man who always showed up whenever she was in danger. She made a promise… but couldn't keep her promise. She was just like his mother. "Have your tongue been cut off? Repeat what you just said!" he snapped at her, and tears strolled down her eyes. No matter how much she cried, it wouldn't justify what she had done. "I didn't mean to betray him," she began sobbing. "I thought he killed my dad, so I gave him an apple injected with succinylcholine. He became weak because of it, and Enzo was able to trap him. Enzo has him in his custody and it's all
In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss The attack
(Writer's POV) "Did Don Alessio answer the phone?" Isabella asked Ivan in a panicked voice, while Ivan shook his head with a sigh. "Why would Lisa even think of leaving the house?" Isabella murmured, her worries palpable. She had earlier gone to Lisa's room to talk to her, only to find out she wasn't in her room. When she got worried, she asked Ivan for help, and he looked into the surveillance cameras and they both found out that Lisa had sneaked out of the house by secretly entering the car trunk of Alessio's car. "Do you think Don Alessio has seen her already?" "I don't think so, Isabella. It's unlike him not to answer the phone either. Something seems off and I can feel it," Ivan muttered. Isabella swiped her hand through her hair in frustration. "Why can't Lisa just believe that Vanessa was indeed a spy?" "Asking questions won't do. If Alessio still doesn't know she's not in the house, then we should find her before he does." Isabella nodded, and just as they were about t
