Lucas escorted Kate to an upscale shopping district she had never before set foot in. As they approached the luxurious boutique and gazed at the opulent clothing, she couldn't help but exclaim internally, ‘Wow... Some of these selections cost more than what I earn in a month.’

The manager of the establishment emerged to greet Lucas, accompanied by a store attendant. "Welcome, Sir Romano," he addressed Lucas. With a wave, Lucas dismissed the manager and led Kate further into the store.

    “Dad!" Elizabeth cried, sobbing uncontrollably from where she was being held as she watched. She turned to Lucas with red, swollen eyes. “You monster! Let him go, please."Lucas didn't even spare Elizabeth a glance and instead turned to Felix. “Take him away. Finish him off by stabbing him continuously where it hurts until he breathes no more," he announced coldly.The room fell into deeper silence as goosebumps rose on everyone's skin. Lucas's men shook their heads internally, consciously making a mental note not to cross or betray their boss. Felix nodded at Lucas and gestured for two of his comrades to help take Wilson away.As Wilson was dragged out of the room by his legs, Lucas turned his face away and looked at Elizabeth—his next target. At his gaze, Elizabeth's knees almost gave out beneath her.Just then, a tall figure stormed into the room, a black mask covering his face, hiding his handsome features but doing little to conceal the dangerous intent in his blue eyes. His ent

    Wilson's gun fired, hitting Kate's shoulder, and she gasped, her voice sharp with pain.Lucas froze, his heart skipping a beat as he watched the bullet touch her.In that moment, something inside Lucas completely snapped.Wilson stumbled back onto the floor from the impact of Matteo’s wheelchair on his leg, but he was still holding the gun. When he saw that he had missed his aim because of the push, his eyes sharpened wildly as they locked onto Kate.He raised his gun at her again, ready to finish her off. But before he could shoot, Ace stepped in front of the frozen Lucas and fired, hitting Wilson straight in the hand.“Ugh," Wilson groaned as the gun slipped from his grasp and clattered loudly against the floor. One of Lucas's men, Felix, quickly moved, picked up the gun, punched Wilson in the face, and held him down on the floor.Ace rushed to Kate's side to check if the bullet had touched her. When he saw that the bullet had slightly grazed her shoulder, he sighed in relief. "Kate

    Elizabeth pointed to one of her father's men. “Hey, you. Go search him,” she said, her eyes never leaving Lucas’s face.The man hesitated for a moment, sensing the cold aura emanating from Lucas’s body. Fear flickered in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it, remembering that they had the man’s wife with them.With that, he mustered up the courage and approached Lucas as he began to search him. He collected the gun Lucas was holding in his hand, and after searching him, he didn’t see anything else on him.Then he stepped aside and held the gun up for Elizabeth to see. “Found this, ma’am,” he said, his voice a little shaky from being near Lucas.Elizabeth glanced at the gun, then back at Lucas, a conflicting expression appearing on her face. A mix of emotions flickered in her eyes: anger, longing, and desire for the man standing before her. “What did you ever see in her?” she asked, her voice curious with a hint of desperation.“I was a better candidate than her,” Elizabeth continued

    Everyone in the room was stunned as they watched Kate slap Elizabeth. Wilson's men and Matteo blinked in surprise at the scene; they didn't expect Kate to dare slap Elizabeth in the face immediately after being untied. And not just once, but thrice!Kate didn't even consider the fact that she was surrounded by Wilson's men and people loyal to Elizabeth. ‘She was not only sharp-tongued but truly brave,’ the men thought, watching Kate with a mix of astonishment and growing respect.“What are you all standing there for?” Elizabeth shrilled. “Get her away from me!”And that's when the men finally moved and rushed towards them. They pulled Kate away from Elizabeth, while Elizabeth pointed a shaking finger at Kate. “You… you dare to slap me?”Elizabeth's eyes were red with rage as she announced, “I’m going to kill you." Then her eyes darted around the room, her gaze landing on a heavy wooden plank. She smirked evilly and moved quickly across the room to pick up the plank.Elizabeth held the

    “You speak with so much conviction,” Kate said, her voice steady. “Did Lucas himself tell you I'm a weakness to him?”“Oh, Kate,” Elizabeth drawled, a condescending smile spreading across her face. “He doesn't have to. Anyone with sense would figure out that he’s crazy about you; seeing the way he almost pulled out the satellite to search for you the last time you eloped with Matteo.”Kate’s brows pulled together. “The satellite? What do you mean by that?”"The satellite is a tool used when a powerful mafia head goes missing," Elizabeth began, explaining to Kate. “Only the Romano family has access to it, and even they don't dare use it without reason. But for you, a nobody, Lucas was willing to break the rules and activate it. He made you an exception to the rules! And because of this, my dad figured out that you’re important to Lucas. Ever since then, we have been planning how to get you and use you against him.”Kate's heart skipped a beat at the revelation in Elizabeth’s words. ‘No

    Wilson pointed to a dusty wooden chair in the room. “Tie her down there," he ordered his men. The two burly men dragged Kate forward, forcing her onto the chair.Then they yanked her arms back, twisting her wrists together behind the chair as they wrapped a dirty, thick rope around her hands, binding her tight.Kate groaned softly in pain at the force with which her hands were being pulled by Wilson's men, and she turned her head to glare at Wilson.Wilson smiled at her, raising his hands upward to rub his chin. "Don't look at me like that, my dear. You should blame Lucas for dragging you into our chaotic world.”At that moment, Elizabeth and Matteo reached where Wilson was standing, and Wilson turned his head to look at them. He raised his brows when he saw Matteo standing beside his daughter. "Shouldn't you be gone by now? Why are you still here?""Dad, he is with me,” Elizabeth replied before Matteo could say a word. She stepped forward, blocking her father's view of Matteo.Wilson

    Kate sat on the bed, her knees pulled up to her chest, arms wrapped around them. Her head was bowed, her face half-hidden behind her knees, and a soft, broken sob slipped from her lips. Her entire body trembled, as though the memories she’d just shared with Lucas were too heavy for her to bear.Luc

    “Kitty," Lucas called out, breaking the comfortable silence between them, and Kate hummed against his chest. “Why don’t you tell me more about yourself? I want to know what you like and the things you don’t. I want to know every single detail about you; from your childhood days to your teenage year

    “Is the sun rising from the west today?” Ace said as he entered the kitchen and saw Lucas wearing an apron, mixing something in a bowl while the chef stood by, giving him instructions. Ace raised his eyebrows. “What are you doing?" he asked curiously.Lucas was not the type to set foot in the kitc

    “What did you say?” Kate asked, wanting Lucas to elaborate further. ‘What does he mean that he wants her to move into his room? Was he breaking his own rules?’“I want you to move into my room," Lucas repeated. Kate's eyes swirled with warmth, yet confusion. She couldn't read the man before her; he
