The Dinner

Luca

The boardroom smelled like leather and old money.

Twelve men in tailored suits sat around the polished table, all of them watching me with that same thin veneer of politeness that didn’t fool me for a second.

At the head of the table, Angelo DiCavalcante leaned back in his chair, fingers steepled over his stomach. His hair was silver, but his eyes were sharp as a hawk’s.

“You understand why we called this meeting, Luca,” he said finally.

I didn’t respond right away. Instead, I flipped open the dossier in front of me and pretended to read the figures I’d already memorized.

I understood perfectly.

This merger was worth billions. A partnership that would solidify my family’s reach across three countries. But it wasn’t the numbers that made them nervous.

It was me.

More specifically, my reputation.

And the headlines that still hadn’t stopped printing my name.

  • MARRIED TO THE MAFIA   Chapter 196

    LilaThe house feels different now. The echo of gunshots still rings in my ears even though it’s been days since that night. Every creak in the walls, every slam of a door makes me flinch. I’ve kept the curtains drawn, the lights dim, and the baby monitor pressed to my side like a lifeline.But despite everything, I’m healing. My stitches itch where the bullet grazed my hip. It could’ve been worse. It *should* have been worse. And if it wasn’t for Lena pulling me down just in time… I don’t even want to think about it.Luca’s been a shadow these past few days. Moving through the house like a ghost, always watching the cameras, barking orders on hushed calls. He barely sleeps, and when he does, it’s on the couch in the nursery with a gun within reach.I hear the faint hum of the baby crying and shift in bed, grimacing as a bolt of pain flares through my side. Before I can swing my legs over the bed, Luca's already at the door.“I’ve got her,” he murmurs, disappearing down the hallway. A

  • MARRIED TO THE MAFIA   Chapter 195

    LilaThe walls of this house have never felt so hollow.I sit curled on the corner of the couch, the baby cradled in my arms, the steady rise and fall of his chest the only anchor keeping me from being swept away by the storm that’s threatening everything. His tiny fingers twitch as he dreams, lips smacking softly like he’s tasting something sweet. I wish I could get lost in this peaceful moment just him and me, skin to skin, mother and child. But even as I stroke his dark curls, my heart is pacing a different rhythm entirely.Gunshots.I still hear them in my ears. That awful stutter of metal cracking against silence. And then the blood the pain Lena’s scream. Luca's voice, thick with fear. It all replays in my head like a horror film I can’t pause.I flinch when I hear the front door open."Lila?" Luca's voice calls out, low and careful."In here," I say, a little too quickly.He walks in, his eyes sweeping the room in a protective scan before locking on me and the baby. His shoulde

    Lila.The house feels colder tonight, even with the heaters on and the soft throw wrapped around my shoulders. I sit in the nursery, gently rocking the baby in my arms. His tiny eyelids flutter, almost as if he’s dreaming already, his little fist curled up by his cheek. The soft hum of the lullaby mobile floats through the room, mingling with the ache in my chest.Too much has happened in so little time.We’ve barely had time to breathe.Barely had time to just… be.And now the weight of it all crashes over me in waves.The attempted attack on our home… the bleeding… the chaos… the fear that gripped me like a vice when I realized I was shot. All of it blurs together like some haunting nightmare. But what keeps me awake tonight, even with my baby safe and warm in my arms, is the silence that followed.Luca has been quiet since. Not cold, just… distant. Like he’s slipping back into that part of himself he worked so hard to break free from the part molded by shadows and secrets.I hear t
