(Lisa's POV)

"Mummy, when is Daddy coming home? You said he'll be back soon, so why hasn't he come home yet?" Alessia asked as I prepared her for preschool.

Isabella was seated on the sofa, but she didn't say anything because she had warned me about this before.

"He'll be back soon," I replied softly.

"That's what you keep saying, and yet he hasn't come home to be with us. Does my daddy hate me?" she asked, and I quickly shook my head, defending Alessio.

"Of course not, Alessia. Your daddy loves you so much," I replied, even though I didn't know what Alessio's reaction would be if he found out we have a daughter together. Is he going to hate her? Love her? Or resent her because of me?

"If he doesn't hate me, why is he wasting time coming to stay with us?" she pouted and I licked my bottom lip as I was short of words to say to her.

I shouldn't have lied to her, knowing fully well that Alessio would never come to find me.

Isabella cleared her throat all of a sudden and said, "Yo

  • In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss    Kiss her

    (Alessio's POV) Chloe and I stepped out of the airport, her hand cuddling over me. Looking around the city where Lisa comes from, it almost smelled like her. I've kidnapped her from this city, but this will be the first time I’d be stepping foot here. "I'm so happy you changed your mind and came here with me, Alessio. We are going to have a wonderful moment together, then once we're back in Rome, we will push through with the wedding," she squealed excitedly, but the scornful look I gave her made her stop smiling. "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong to offend you?" she asked. "I make the decision on when we get married, not you. Do I make myself clear?" I declared, and she nodded, smiling again. "You should make the decision on when the wedding will happen. You know better," she beamed at me. A black car stopped in front of us, and two men in tailored suits came out of the car to get our things into the car trunk. We got everything prepared before we embarked on a trip to

  • In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss    A fool for love

    (Alessio's POV) "Why should I go to California?" I asked, knowing that a certain person I didn't want to see lives there. "As you know, Chloe here is my princess," he said with a smile. "And how does that answer my question?" I asked, and he smiled. "It's simple, Alessio. Chloe wants to go on a vacation to California." "I thought you said your dad wanted to discuss something serious with me?" I said, directing the question to Chloe, but she smiled sheepishly at me. It's obvious she talked her dad into this. Just like he said, Chloe is his princess, and he wouldn't hesitate to do anything for her. It was through her influence that he helped me restore the Declan empire. "If she wants to go on vacation to California, she can do it on her own. I don't need to go with her," I said. I wasn't ready to meet her again. I've said it countless times that I resent her, but I wasn't ready to meet her again. "You're her fiancé, Alessio, and you both will be getting married soon," C

  • In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss    Make an impression

    (Alessio's POV) I stared at the strange number that had called me, wondering why they called and wouldn't say anything. Somehow, the number looked oddly familiar. "Who could it be?" I muttered to myself. "Is everything okay?" Ivan asked me, and that's when I withdrew my eyes from my phone to focus on the main reason we were here. We were on the outskirts of the city, watching out for an enemy. "Yeah, everything is fine," I answered, pocketing my phone as I lit up a cigarette, the smoke swirling around me. "Do you think Maximo is going to show up here?" he asked. "Weren’t you the one who said this part of the road is his usual routine?" I asked in return, and he nodded his head, resting his back on the car, just like I did. "Can I ask you something?" he muttered after a few seconds of silence. "What?" I asked back, puffing the smoke from my cigarette through my nostrils. "I know this might sound insane—that after all these years, I’m asking you this" "Just go stra

  • In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss    Felt the same

    (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

  • In The Arms Of A Mafia Boss    Peacefully growing

    (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
