Left for a Stuffed Animal Chapter 9
"Don't pronounce the judgment…"Sal scrambled to me, dropping to his knees on the cold marble, clutching at my skirt. "Cara, I'm sorry. I know I was wrong.""I'll change. I swear I'll be faithful. I'll be a good husband.""We have a child! She's only one—she needs a mother!""Whatever I did, the baby is innocent."At the mention of the child, the Chamber softened. Pity flickered in the eyes of the made men. Murmurs rose—give her the child, let her raise it.I drew a breath, feeling my eyes burn. "Sal, you still don't understand.""The child is innocent, yes.""But she is not mine."The Chamber went deathly still.Marco stepped forward and laid a bloodline test on the Don's table. "DNA confirmation. The Consigliere's daughter shares no blood with Cara Lucchese."Father Barzini choked, a wheezing gasp, hand clutching his chest. The old man looked ready to collapse.The room turned to Sal with pure, burning hate. He had lied about everything.Tears finally spilled down my face. I spoke th

Father Barzini's eyelid twitched violently. His hand went to his chest.The others turned to stare at Gigi, ice running down their spines."Jesus Christ, if this is true…""Twins playing double game? I'd be dead ten times over."My own breath caught. Remembering, I felt the ghost of a blade at my throat."Lies! All lies!" Gigi bared her teeth. "Fabricated! If I had a sister, where is she? Produce her!"As the words left her mouth, one of the Don's guards approached, whispering low in his ear.The Don's eyes sharpened. He raised his hand. "We have a witness on secure line from Palermo. Watch."The screen flickered. A stark room appeared. A woman sat bound to a chair, bruised, defiant—mirror image of Gigi, but harder, crueler.The interrogator's voice cut: "Name.""Gina Caruso.""Family?""Only my twin sister, Gigi. Works as the Consigliere's childhood friendin the Barzini Family."The truth detonated.Gigi's eyes went wide with pure horror. She stumbled backward, muttering, "Idiot… she

The woman inside the teddy bear costume turned around, and her face was identical to Gigi's."MaGigi mia… the thief crying thief.""They're adulterers. Conning the whole Family.""Fucking hell, we almost bought it.""Hiding inside a teddy bear to fuck? That's not human. That's gutter trash."The Chamber erupted in curses and shouts. Even the Don's jaw tightened, his eyes narrowing with cold disgust.Sal and Gigi looked at each other. Sweat beaded on their foreheads, their knees trembling, nearly buckling.Slap!Father Barzini's hand flew so hard Sal's head snapped sideways. The old man was shaking, voice cracking with rage: "You… you've pissed on our name! Disgraced the blood! Is this what I taught you?""You played the good son, the honest advisor—how did you become this? Cheating, whoring, betraying your wife? What do you owe Cara? What do you owe us?"Mother Barzini broke down sobbing, her face crumpled with a devastation I'd never seen. They had raised a monster dressed in silk.Th

"I-I-I… don't know," Sal stammered, lips pressed tight, shaking his head. He glared at me, shame and rage mixing in his eyes—blaming me for exposing him.Gigi's eyes darted. She spun a new web, voice suddenly sharp: "He's cursed!"Silence.Even Sal froze, looking at her blankly."What? Cursed? Explain," Father Barzini seized on it like a drowning man grabbing a rope. He couldn't believe his golden son was truly this depraved."Before," Gigi pointed at me, "Cara brought in a witch doctor from the old country—claiming it was for protection. Right after that ritual, Sal started obsessing over the bear. It's connected."She spoke with absolute conviction."It's true," Mother Barzini gasped. "I stayed over for a few days. Strange noises at night. Shadows moving in the corners. I saw a dark figure once—thought I was dreaming. Now I know… it was a spirit.""An evil eye. Malocchio," Father Barzini muttered, crossing himself.Gigi turned on me, ice in her voice: "You're heartless, Cara. Sal lif

Every eye in the Chamber locked onto me, waiting to see what blade I'd pull."I request to present the surveillance footage," Marco said, sliding the encrypted drive across the mahogany table to the Don.The Don nodded, his ring tapping the wood once.A soldier plugged the drive into the monitor. The projection screen flickered to life, showing three folders."Open the first one," I said, my voice steady as a gun barrel.The soldier clicked it. Video filled the screen.There was Sal—my husband, the Consigliere—bursting from the bathroom, naked, lunging straight for that filthy teddy bear. He tackled it onto the silk sheets, hands groping, face twisted in a bliss that made my stomach turn.The Chamber erupted."What the hell… the Consigliere, secretly doing that with a stuffed animal?""Sick. Disgusting. He has a wife right there!""Humiliating her like this… what kind of man…"Whispers hissed through the shadows like snakes. Sal's face shot crimson. He clearly remembered telling me the

Within hours, word spread through the Family like wildfire.Rumors swirled in the back rooms of every social club, whispered between soldiers at street corners, scribbled on encrypted messages sent between capos.They said I was keeping seven or eight young lovers in a downtown safe house.They said I'd been seen entering the VIP rooms of underground casinos, alone with strange men.They said I had bastard children hidden overseas—twins, some claimed—with evidence photos to prove it.I became the Family's whore, the traitor who'd abandoned a devoted husband and innocent son. A gold-digging viper who'd bitten the hand that fed her.I said nothing. I let them drown me in filth.For three days, I disappeared into silence....On the third day, I walked into the Chamber.The Don sat at the head of the long mahogany table, his ring catching the dim light. Behind him stood his personal guards, hands resting casually on their holsters. The room was packed—every capo, every soldier, every conn
