ログインI reread the message twice.Then I let out a sigh. It seemed destiny was forcing me to bow to Luca.First the deal with the Russians, and now Levi.‘What if I told him the truth… that the child was his and surrendered?’ I thought. ‘Would things get better? Would I be making the right decision for my kids?’“Tell Enzo that we need to go to the Haydens nightclub,” I said, my voice barely audible.Nadia frowned; she thought she heard me wrong.“We need ten men,” I said, knowing this time I should not challenge Il Don.“Do you think he would help us? I guess we should…”I cut her off. “Levi went to report Luca to Il Don.”“What?” she snapped, barely holding her laughter.“Is your fiancé under drugs or something?” she sneered.“It was all my fault. I should not have brought him into this world,” I sighed. “Levi is a good man.”She stood to her feet and added, “Yeah… he’s good and everything, but going to meet Il Don like this is just… suicide?”I rested my palms on the cold surface of my d
MilaI couldn’t just stand there and watch.I hurried after him. “Levi, wait…” He was already outside the main door.The moment I stepped into the front yard, Paolo, Vince, and Enzo immediately straightened. “Ms. Mila…”I ignored them and caught Levi's arm. “If you insist on going… then I’m coming with you.”He stopped and Turned toward me. He smiled, but there wasn't the usual warmth in his eyes. “I am not taking you into a Mafia den, Mila.”His German accent grew thicker than usual. He was angry. I could not blame him though.“Levi...” I softened my voice, hoping to ease the tension in the air. “If you go... then I'll go too.”For a long second, he simply looked at me. Then a helpless smile curved his lips. “Oh... hun.” I caught the hesitation in his eyes. “Then I'm not going.” He brushed a loose strand of hair behind my ear. “I can't take an innocent girl like you into a place like that.”Before I could answer, a white Audi A6 entered through the gate and stopped in the driveway.
‘I needed to get out of this place,’ I whispered to myself. The moment I turned, I spotted him—Luca—just entering the hall. He was scanning the place with his eyes as if searching for something. I just prayed he wasn't looking for me. “Vellari, look. It’s Luca Hayden,” I heard one of the girls exclaim. Was this Vellari Dellotchi? The supermodel? Her family was one of the strongest families Baba Gerald had hoped to ally with over the years. “Oh God! He’s coming here, Val.” I looked back. Oh, shit. He saw me. “Is my makeup perfect?” Vellari asked. “What about my hair?” “You’re perfect. Just keep smiling.” “He’s coming. He’s coming,” the girl said excitedly. All three of them were smiling as they watched him approach. “Hey, Luca…” But he walked right past their booth. Their smiles vanished. Then, almost at the same time, they all turned to look at me. I turned away. I didn't know where I was going, but the look in his eyes told me to move. Just five s
The naked woman was still performing, trying to catch Luca’s attention while his eyes were on me, and a faint, almost entertained smile curved his lips—like my suffering was something he enjoyed watching unfold.When the naked woman stepped between me and him, a single, effortless shot shattered the moment andshe collapsed to the floor, screaming.Guards rushed in immediately and dragged her out of the VIP room. The second girl followed behind them, trembling so violently she could barely walk.This scene scared me to the core. Not because he shot her, but because he was still smiling and glaring at me while he did it.This told me how much he despised and resented me at this moment.That was worse than anger.That was hatred held under perfect control.This coldness…I had never seen this side of Luca.Think, Mila. Think… think… think.There must be a way out.I was wrapping my two hands over my belly.He would never harm my baby. Not the Luca I knew, at least. …Right?Or… was I ly
MilaI sensed something was off. No matter how much I asked the driver and the guards in the car where we were going, no one cared to reply, as if they were mute.I held Angelo closer to me.“We’re taking you and the young Master to a safe place, as we were ordered, Ms. Rossetti,” the guard sitting in front of us said.Young Master?!“Who ordered you?” I asked, my voice sharp.He didn’t respond. Before I could ask again, the car pulled up in front of a huge building I had never seen before.“Ms. Rossetti, please come,” a woman said in a respectful tone as she opened the car door.I shook my head, pulled Angelo closer, and placed my hand protectively over my lower abdomen.She smiled at Angelo and said, “Hello, Angelo.”“Who are you?” I asked.Her expression turned more serious.“Ma’am, I’m not allowed to say anything right now. Please come with us.”When I looked around, I knew I had no way out. I knew better than to stand alone against all these armed people.I held Angelo’s hand and
LucaA dark thought passed through my head as I watched Levi tied to a chair. His shirt was soaked with blood.Why didn't I snap his skull yet? I should have done that months ago.Because you're a coward, the voice in my head mocked me. You know how ugly and monstrous she will see you if you kill her favorite man.Favorite man.The words stung deep in my heart.Give me a break! You still care about her after what she has done to you? She broke the legend of the untouchable Il Cativo. Il Don, whose enemies die from a single glare. Do your men still really respect you after their boss was tied to a bed by a woman so she could escape him?I let out a huge cloud of smoke, still looking through the partition glass between where I was standing and the room where Levi was tied."Boss," one of my men said as he entered the room. "Mission accomplished. The house has been completely leveled to the ground, and Ms. Russetti and the young master are completely safe."I handed him my cigarette and
Ricardo [Why the hell did you take your mother and your sister to the Veleno nightclub? Are you insane?][Why didn't you inform me first?][Take them home, now!][Reply to me Ricardo!][You messed things up!][Screw you.][Just don't tell your brother about that or the name of the nightclub, we do
MilaMy heart pounded violently against my ribs the moment Ricardo's car pulled up in front of the main entrance of Veleno Nightclub, but I refused to show any trace of weakness or fear. I had to face this with a heart of steel.Ricardo stared at me through the rearview mirror with a reassuring smi
RicardoMy phone buzzed several times while I was in the middle of a meeting with the mayor in my office at Sottosopra nightclub.“We need your family’s help. The increasing rate of kidnapping is starting to sway the public opinion,” said the mayor, his expression dark. It seemed he had been going
MilaSlap!My five fingers left a red print on Luca's face. The moment my palm connected with his cheek, I froze, realizing what I had just done. I struck Il Don. If the guards had been around, they would have shot me dead on the spot.He didn't flinch though. Our eyes remained locked, and an ugly
