(Lisa's POV)

I waited patiently for Alessio to leave the house because I had planned to meet up with the Godfather. I had talked to him, and he was delighted to meet up with me.

Alessio was wrong about the Godfather. He might be cruel to others, but I didn't think that applied to me. He spoke to me freely and even offered to treat me to a nice meal.

A smile spread across my face as I watched Alessio from the balcony, where he got into his car and drove off. I had been careful not to let him notice that something was off about me.

Since I knew he read people's thoughts through their eyes, I had tried my best not to let him know whatever I was planning before he left.

I waited a few more minutes before I stepped out of the house. I was careful not to take the path where the landmines were.

He had taken me out of the premises to see the sunset before, so I would follow that route.

"Where are you going, Madame?" one of the guards stopped me.

I swallowed before replying, "I

  • In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss    Kill her

    (Lisa's POV) I arrived at the Godfather's mansion and was immediately taken in by the man who had picked me up from the roadside. There were men on guard with armed guns surrounding the house, but the structure of the house wasn’t like Alessio’s. It wasn’t as broad, nor did it have a secret passage that was hardly recognized by an outsider. "I will inform him you're here," he said to me, and I nodded with a smile. When he left, my eyes scanned the living room. It was beautiful, but Alessio’s house would always stand out. "You’re finally here, pretty one," he said as he descended the stairs. Handsomeness does run in the DeLuca family because he was extremely handsome despite his age. "Good afternoon, Godfather," I said with a smile as I approached him. "Did you wait that long?" he asked gently, and I shook my head, not regretting disobeying Alessio just to see him. "I'm glad to finally see you, Lisa. When we first met, we didn’t get to talk much. When you called and s

  • In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss    The Lion's den

    (Alessio's POV) It's been over a week since I last touched Lisa. Even when we lay on the bed together, with her throwing advances at me that she wanted to have sex with me, I can't keep resisting even though I badly want to. How could I make love to her when Salvatore has already come into the picture? I wouldn't enjoy it even if I did it with her, because I would be filled with thoughts of the Godfather aiming at her. I need to make sure he leaves Italy so I only have the strange caller to deal with. I have been informed a few times by the gate man about how Salvatore has come to the house, but he refuses to let him in. I wouldn't give him the chance to hurt my woman. As for the strange caller, I guess he has a specific period when he calls me just to remind me that I haven't yet uncovered who he is. I still haven't forgotten how he endangered Lisa by trapping her in the tunnel. His sins are doubling, and I swear on my dad's grave that I will make him pay for everything h

  • In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss    The accident

    (Alessio's POV) Salvatore groaned in pain as he stood to his feet, staring at me with disbelief. He must have thought that I wouldn't dare to pull the trigger since he was the one who created the monster dwelling inside of me. What was he expecting anyway? If not for Lisa, I wouldn't have known what it feels like to have someone who means the whole world to you because Salvatore made sure all of my emotions disappeared during my training days. "You dare to shoot at me because of a woman?" he asked, holding on to his bleeding stomach. "You underestimated what I am capable of doing, Salvatore! That woman is the most important person in my life, so you better handle her back to me, or the next bullet will go straight to your head," I said firmly, my eyes filled with rage. Salvatore smirked. "You want your woman so badly, why don't you try looking for her? Who knows, it might be too late to save your darling Lisa," he sneered. "What the heck did you do to her?" I spat. "Yo

  • In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss    Fragile woman

    (Alessio's POV) I quickly rushed out of my car and made my way to the vehicle that had just hit the curb. I opened the car door, and there was Lisa. Her head was on the steering wheel, bleeding from her head. How she able to get to the front seat? I thought, but it wasn't something to dwel on at this moment. She was unconscious "Lisa," I uttered, blaming myself for what had happened to her. It’s all my fault. I should have let her go. I shouldn’t have been so selfish to keep her with me. If I hadn’t kidnapped her in the first place, all the dangers that befall her wouldn’t have happened. I pulled her out of the car, and the beautiful eyes that always lit up my world were closed. This was the first time she was unconscious, with blood spilling from her head, and it scared me. It just showed how much she meant to me and how much I loved her. For two decades, this would be the first time I’d shared tears. With Lisa in my arms, I got into my car, not caring about the s

  • In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss    Snake in the grass

    (Writer's POV) Salvatore's eyes were fixed on the broken gate, which had been destroyed by Alessio. Even with all the drama that had happened so far, he was still yet to believe Alessio was capable of pulling the trigger on him. He could vividly remember the five-year-old boy who always trembled at the sight of him, but that boy had grown into someone who could challenge him and someone he couldn't win over in combat. Just like how Alessio couldn't beat him in combat, the same also applied to him. He had trained Alessio into what he was today, and he expected him to be strong—but not to the extent of pulling a trigger on him. "Alessio," he muttered with a smirk, as his eyes didn’t leave the gate that had been broken by Alessio. "Godfather," one of his men approached him with a bow, and he turned to look at him. "What happened to that woman?" he asked. "She survived the accident with a minor injury. I was present when Don Alessio brought her out of the car, though I hid my

  • 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) 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

    (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

    (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’

    (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

    (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
