Luca.

My hands hung at my sides, empty. For one moment, I had been filled with her: her curves, her scent, her heat. Now I stood in the middle of the room, alone, just like I had on our wedding night.

A married man with a hard on and no relief in sight. Amazed at my ridiculous predicament, I tried to go over the events of the evening and see where I had gone wrong.

The moment I caught her with Lewis, a slow, steaming anger had risen up within me. The heat started at my feet, traveled to my stomach, my chest, and finally settled like a hot band around my head. If I was a horse, I would have snorted out smoke and stamped my hooves. If I was a wolf, I would have howled at the moon.

Her hand had rested on the his arm. He must’ve been quite amusing, because she threw her head back and laughed, her cheeks flushed and rosy.

Her full lips had gleamed under the chandelier light. They had acted like they were long time friends instead of people who had just met.

But the worst was when she smil

  • MARRIED TO THE MAFIA   Chapter Ninety Three

    Vanessa. I had seen him get emotional before, but not like this. He seemed broken, finally someone had broken him the way he was used to breaking women. I look at him again wondering if maybe this was a show, but it was real. He broke in front of me like a baby. Not in some cinematic way where the sky darkens and a thunderclap punctuates the moment. No. Luca’s breaking is quieter, more raw. His shoulders slump, like the weight of the world has finally settled on his back and he’s done pretending it’s light. His hands cover his face, but I can still see the tremble in his fingertips, the slight hitch in his breath.And it hits me harder than I expect how much I hate seeing him like this.I thought this would make me happy, Atleast make my ego happy, considering how he broke up with me, but it wasn't at all. For a long, stunned second, I just stand there. Watching. Absorbing every piece of him as if I could memorize the contours of this exact moment and hold onto it. His pain shoul

    Luca. It felt like I had been drinking all night, I had actually started earlier, back in the house before I went to the club. I wanted to just forget everything but it was not working, she was all I could think about trying to go through all scenarios in my head on what could have really happened. Did Lila ran away or was she kidnapped was the question. I don’t remember getting into Vanessa’s car. I ran into her at the club and we shared some drinks together, she was keeping it cordial despite everything that had went down between us and I appreciated that. The last thing I needed tonight was arguing with her. I didn't have it in me. One second I was standing on the curb outside the club, trying to remember how to spell my own name, and the next I was in her living room. Warm, dim, it still smells like orange blossom and something sweet, just like it always has. Maybe candles. Or maybe she smells like that. I don’t know. I’m spinning.Vanessa kicks off her heels near the couch a

    LialI woke up to darkness. Not the kind that lingers just before dawn or the kind you feel behind closed eyes but a suffocating, heavy kind that pressed against my face like a weight. My heart thudded against my ribs as I tried to move and realized I couldn’t. My arms were twisted painfully behind me, wrists tied tight with something rough. Rope? Fabric? I couldn’t tell. Panic swelled in my chest like a scream rising up my throat.Where the hell was I? I tried to recollect my thoughts,I tried to breathe evenly, to calm the trembling in my limbs, but everything felt wrong. The surface beneath me was cold and hard. Maybe concrete. The air smelled stale like dust, sweat, and faint traces of perfume. A blindfold covered my eyes, tight enough that the edges dug into my temples. I tried to shift, to feel something familiar, but there was nothing. Just the low hum of my own fear.My mouth opened, a scream forming on my lips but nothing came out. Then I heard the door open somewhere behind

    LucaI stared down a the note again after hanging up, reading the words letter by letter wondering if there was an hidden message in it. None of this made any logical sense at all. She had just left, wnd with my baby too. That was it. No explanation, no goodbye, no signature. Just that one cold sentence scrawled in Lila’s tight, deliberate handwriting. I must’ve read it a hundred times already, but the weight of it hadn’t eased up one bit.My thumb slid over my phone screen. The image I’d taken of the note glared back at me proof this wasn’t some twisted dream. Lila was gone. Nothing in her room was touched at all, but her phone had been found dumped in a wrecked car at a junkyard off I-90, and the trail ended there.I tried to think like her, tried to imagine what could have driven her to vanish. She wasn’t impulsive. If anything, Lila was methodical disciplined to the point of obsession. She wouldn’t just disappear unless she had a damn good reason… or unless someone made her.Eit

    LucaI had tried calling her several times, her phone went straight to voice mail. I knew she was mad at me but this was absolutely pissing me off. She knew I hated it when she never picked her phone, especially now that she was pregnant. I called Maria who answered on the second ring. "Hey, put Lila on the phone Maria." I said as soon as she picked up. "She is not yet home sir.""What do you mean she is not home yet, she left the office a couple of hours ago." something was definitely not right. I checked the watch it had been atleast four hours since she left the office, she should be home by now. "She said she was stopping by the market to pick up some groceries to cook for you sir." Maria said, getting me out of my head, "She said she wanted to make you something special." Maria added. "She should be home by now, I am on my way." I said hanging up. I immediately sent my security her number and told him to track her and find out where she was as I rushed to the car. I had t

    Lila. Today had not gone how I had imagined it will at all. First an interruption this morning, then the whole Vanessa scenario and now I was fighting with Luca. I hated when we were on bad terms, and it sucked even more because I was really looking forward to spending some quality time together. But nothing was going to kick me down, I still had some time to turn the day and night around. I had called Maria from the office and given her a list of groceries to get, I was going to cook an apology dinner for Luca, he loved spaghetti and meat balls and lucky enough that was my speciality. The drive home was not supposed to take this long, but there had been a little bit of traffic due to some drizzling. My hands were on the wheel. The road was wet, shimmering in the headlights. A song was playing. Something soft. Something forgettable. Then something happened, something I couldn't really explain. All I heard was metal crunching. Glass exploding. Weightlessness. Screams, my own scr

    Luca. I was halfway down the hallway, flipping through emails on my phone, when I nearly collided with someone turning the corner too fast.“Whoa.... Vanessa?” I said, as soon as I saw her face looking around a little confused, "Did we have a meeting?" She didn’t stop. Just brushed past me like I wasn’t even there, eyes glassy and wide, shoulders stiff like she was holding herself together with string.“Vanessa.. wait.” I yelled at her even more confused, she seemed pissed, like she had seen a ghost. She kept walking. Faster. Like she couldn’t get away from me fast enough. And I lte her go, juts watching as she hurriedly walked out. I turned, watching her push through the glass doors of the main lobby, practically running.What the hell just happened?I stared after her, completely thrown. I hadn’t seen her in weeks, since our confrontation at the coffee shop,and now she was here, in my building, clearly upset, and refusing to even look at me? What was she doing here in the first

  • MARRIED TO THE MAFIA   Chapter Eighty Six

    Vanessa. I watched Lila as she picked up her bag and the file that I assumed had all the information about me before she walked out, banging the door on her way out it echoed. The door clicked shut behind her, and I just stood there. Frozen. Humiliated.The silence in the conference room was deafening. I didn’t realize I was holding my breath until my lungs started to burn. My fingers tightened around the strap of my purse until my knuckles went white. Six months pregnant. She’s six months pregnant.She was six months pregnant! That's what stung me the most of everything she had just said to me because then that would mean, Luca has been lying to me way before I found out. God.I sank into the chair across from where she’d been sitting, like the air had been sucked right out of me. The room still smelled faintly like her perfume, expensive, sharp, the kind that lingered. Just like everything about her.She was so different from the woman I first men a few months ago, she was right,

  • MARRIED TO THE MAFIA   Chapter Eighty Five

    Lila. I had no idea what had gotten into me, but between Jenny dropping in on us unannounced and ruining everything I had planned out for the day, I did not have any patience left in me. I could also credit my pregnancy hormones. I sat in the cold, sterile conference room, the ticking of the wall clock louder than it had any right to be. My fingers tapped against the glass table, nails clicking in a rhythm that matched the irritation rising in my chest. I’d been here for fifteen minutes already, but I wasn’t nervous. I was angry, no furious was the word. I did not plan on having a confrontation today with my husbands ex, it was supposed to be a chill day for me to take a tour of his office headquarters, but here I was. Vanessa had made my life miserable since the very first time she laid eyes on me. Even just thinking her name made my jaw tighten with anger and fury. What a bitch! She had no idea it was me who had summoned her here. The assistant had kept it vague, just said Lu
