For a moment, they just stood there, the sounds of gunfire fading into the background.

Then, suddenly—

Leonardo smirked.

“You should look behind you.”

Marko barely had time to react before something heavy slammed into the back of his skull.

The world spun.

His grip on Leonardo loosened, the pain in his head blinding.

He stumbled forward—

And then everything went dark.

MARIA

Maria’s breath came fast as she ran through the empty streets, her pulse pounding in her ears.

Marko had told her to go. She should have kept running.

But something felt wrong.

She had heard the gunshot.

And now, there was only silence.

Her chest tightened. Every instinct screamed at her to go back.

She couldn’t just leave him.

Taking a shaky breath, she turned around, her heart hammering. She had no weapons, no plan—only sheer desperation.

But she didn’t care,all she could think of was... marko

Marko was still in there.

And she was going to get him back.

    The motorcycle roared down the desolate highway, its engine echoing through the early morning stillness. Maria gripped the handlebars tightly, her knuckles white, as Marko leaned heavily against her back, his breath shallow and uneven. The horizon was tinged with the soft hues of dawn, but the darkness still clung to the edges of the world, mirroring the uncertainty that loomed over them.They had escaped the immediate danger, but the threat of Leonardo's return hung over them like a storm cloud. Maria's mind raced, contemplating their next move. They needed a safe haven, a place to regroup and tend to Marko's injuries. But trust was a scarce commodity in their world, and allies were few and far between.As they sped along the highway, a flicker of movement caught Maria's eye. A black SUV emerged from a side road, accelerating rapidly to match their speed. Panic surged through her veins as she realized they were being pursued.Marko,she shouted over the roar of the engine, we've got c

    The shot ripped through the night, sending birds scattering from the treetops.Maria’s breath caught as the gun trembled in her hands. Smoke curled from the barrel, but she couldn’t tell if she had fired or if someone else had.The clearing stood frozen.Leonardo’s smirk wavered, his fingers still hovering near his gun. Then, slowly, his eyes flicked down. A dark stain spread across his shoulder, crimson soaking through the fine fabric of his jacket.Maria’s chest heaved, shock numbing her limbs.She had fired.But she hadn’t aimed to kill.Leonardo stumbled back, cursing under his breath, but the rage burning in his eyes was far from finished.“You little—”Before he could reach for his weapon, Marko surged forward. Even with blood streaking down his side, he moved like a predator unleashed. His shoulder slammed into Leonardo, sending both men crashing to the

    He tilted his head, unconvinced.Then, before she could react, he lunged.“Who were you talking to?” he demanded, his grip tightening.Maria struggled, her pulse racing. “No one, I swear—”The man wasn’t buying it. He shoved her back onto the bed, eyes dark with warning. “Leonardo wants you alive. That’s the only reason you’re still breathing. But if you make trouble…” He pulled out a knife, flipping it effortlessly between his fingers. “Accidents happen.”Maria’s breath hitched.She knew what he was implying.Her mind screamed at her to stay quiet. To not provoke him. But she also knew one thing—Marko was coming for her.She just had to stay alive long enough for him to get here.MarkoMarko killed the engine a block away from the estate.

  • MAFIA:LOVE AND SECRETS    RACE AGAINST TIME

    Midnight Leonardo's EstateMarko crouched in the shadows behind the estate, his pulse steady despite the weight of the risk he was taking. Leonardo's compound was heavily guarded, but Marko had spent years studying places like this knowing where the weak spots were.He'd bribed a low-level security guard earlier, learning the exact layout of Leonardo's office. The ledger would be inside, locked up. The problem? Leonardo never left it unguarded.Marko pulled out a small flashlight and pressed forward, slipping past the cameras he knew had blind spots. He moved fast but careful, keeping to the darkness until he reached the side entrance.A single guard stood near the door, smoking.Marko didn't hesitate.He moved in silently, wrapping an arm around the man's throat and dragging him back into the shadows. The guard barely had time to struggle before his body went limp. Marko eased him to the ground, patting him down quickly. No key.Damn.Marko withdrew a thin blade and worked the lock.

    Marko glanced at the clock on his dashboard. Time was slipping away. He had two nights before the job.“Send me the name,” he said.Luca sighed. “Marko, you’re walking a fine line. You know that, right?”Marko’s jaw clenched. “I don’t have a choice.”A pause. Then, “I’ll text you.”The line went dead.Marko exhaled slowly, trying to rein in the fury burning inside him. He needed to be smart. One wrong move and Maria would pay the price.His phone buzzed again. A text from Luca.Santino Greco. Leonardo’s buyer. He’s in town.Marko’s lips curled into a cold smile.Perfect.The Next NightMarko stood outside the dimly lit club, his hands tucked into his pockets. The bass from the music inside pulsed through the pavement, a steady rhythm that did nothing to settle his nerves.Inside was Santino Greco—the man with answers. If he could get to him, he’d know exactly what Leonardo was moving and who else had their hands in the deal.Marko pulled open the door and stepped inside. The club was p
