She laughed. “I told him to get lost. Just like I told you.”

She tried to walk toward the stairs, but she stumbled again. I caught her before she fell and broke something inside her.

“Why do you keep doing that?” she said angrily. “Let me just fall!”

“Because I’m not going to let you destroy yourself.”

“You can’t stop me!”

“Maybe not, but I’ll still try.”

She shoved me hard and walked past me. “Don’t act like you care.”

“I do care.” I nodded.

“Liar!” she screamed. “You care about the business,

  • Mafia's Forbidden Desires   There are some men following after you

    Raven Blackwood’s POV:Just as I was about to stand up and leave, I paused. My eyes meet with Francesco Russo, standing at a distance away from me. His brows raised for a second before he walked towards me, “Blackwood! I am surprised to see you here.”“Russo,” I greeted him back.“What brought you to Italy?” He said, taking a seat across from me.“Just business,” I answered calmly, observing his expression.He nodded and started talking about the latest developments in his business. I listened more than I spoke. My attention remained on observing him and thinking about whether he could be involved in kidnaping My Wife. Francesco had no major dealings in Vegas. Only I was his business partner. That day I didn’t add him to the list, thinking he wouldn’t be involved, but… damn it.Just then, I realised the way he looked at Valerie for the first time. How did I even miss such a detail? My fists clenched by my sides. My immediate instinct was to grab him by his collar and make him talk, bu

  • Mafia's Forbidden Desires   DO YOU STILL BELIEVE HIM?

    They were sitting in a bar. Both had drinks in their hand. From the angle, it looked like they were very intimate with each other. Both were all smiles. The woman felt familiar, but I couldn’t remember her. She had wrapped her arm around Raven’s arm.In that moment, it was as if my only hope broke. The weight on my chest was enormous. I felt suffocation in my heart, making it hard for me to breathe. The sudden tremble in my body made my knees go weak, and I fell on the ground. ‘No. Raven couldn’t do this.’ I murmured under my breath. ‘It was impossible.’ I reasoned with myself, ‘I had seen him with other women before. Those were spies. He acted like that to get the information. Yes, it must be like that.’ I knew Raven more than the woman in this picture. I have seen him grow up. How could I not know Raven’s character? He was loyal to me. It would just be his other plan to find me. I wiped my tears with the back of my hand as I took a deep breath to calm myself. They were just trying

  • Mafia's Forbidden Desires   I missed home

    When I woke up again, my surroundings were different. I was in a bright room. It took me a while to adjust my vision to the brightness here. I was sitting on a chair with my right hand tied behind my back, and my left hand was free. There was a note stuck to my left wrist that said, ‘Eat.’I glanced around and saw that there was a plate with two dry breads with a glass of water on my right side. I frowned. Who took me here? And why? And now they wanted to feed me food like this? Just so I wouldn’t die?I didn’t know what was going on in their mind. If they wanted me dead, they would have killed me already. Having them give me food, barely, their purpose was to make me live, but on their conditions. But why? What was their purpose? Did they want to do something with Raven? Or was someone trying to settle their scores with me? But who did I even offend?My stomach growled, grabbing my attention. I didn’t want to eat it. I didn’t want to please them by eating it. But my body demanded ene

  • Mafia's Forbidden Desires   He will find me

    Valerie Thorne’s POV:There was nothing but darkness around me.I didn’t know if I was in hell or still alive, but when I opened my eyes, there was darkness all around me. My head ached with heavy pain, which made me feel I wasn’t dead, at least yet.I tried to speak, but my throat felt too dry to move. Heavens. Where was I?As much as I could remember, just as Jeremy had tried to give me space to get out of there, a blast had happened. Then I didn’t know what happened next, but when I regained my consciousness, I was here.I didn’t know what had happened back there or how much time had passed since I had fainted. I didn’t even know if Raven had got there to look for me. But thinking about him, he would have already been looking for me.A tear slipped down my cheek. I wanted to go home. I wanted to go to Reign and him.I looked around, but there was no light, not a single hole to let the outside light come inside. Yet, taking a deep breath, I stood up. I couldn’t just give up on my li

  • Mafia's Forbidden Desires   Or could be an ally in disguise

    Drake raised his hand to dismiss them, “Leave. They are not enemies.”I glanced at Drake, not bothering to be threatened by his so-called men, “You got two hours. I won’t wait past that.” And then walked out of the room with Kyle.The next two hours I spent were by the seaside. I couldn’t understand where to even begin finding her. I never felt this helpless in my life until Nolan, and now this. I thought I had a lead until now. Yet, I was back to square one.Every second delayed was every second of me putting her in more danger, which was the risk I couldn’t take. A thousand possibilities ran through my mind. I had to do something. I had to already begin with everything I had. I stood up, signalling Kyle. “Let’s go.”Half an hour later, we were back at my private house. I turned on my laptop and turned to Kyle, who was already ready with his tablet. I had decided to check with all the men I had done business with, all my allies, competitors, and enemies. I couldn’t trust anyone when

  • Mafia's Forbidden Desires   That better be the case

    The moment I stepped into Italy, it was already past midnight. Kyle walked beside me, all alert. The first thing we did was to reach one of my properties here, and I called a few of my men who were still working for Drake on the surface.After I instructed them on my orders and what to do, I put my phone down. I wanted nothing but to rush down and tear Drake apart for even stepping closer to My Wife, but I had to be patient when I didn’t know if he was behind it or someone else. I had to get My Wife back without anything happening to her.I closed my eyes to think clearly. They came prepared. They knew she would come there. They had information. They knew it in advance. It means they were given information from inside. But only Jeremy and Eliot knew about it besides Valerie. No one else. Damn it. Was I missing something here?Eliot wouldn’t do anything as such, but Jeremy?I shook my head. There was more to it than I knew.“She will be fine,” Kyle said from the side as he observed my

    The process felt rather slow as the doctor worked on removing the bullet from my back. After he had bandaged and cleaned the blood from my body, I stood up, “Can I see her already?”He nodded. I didn’t wait further and walked out. Walking out felt difficult, but I had handled worse.Soon, I reached

    Her words echoed in my mind for a long time. I kept my arm around her shoulder, feeling the warmth of her body against mine. Another moment later, I asked quietly, “What kind of dreams?”She turned her face slightly towards me. “Simple ones. I want to see places, different cultures, and live freely

    “Come sit,” I said to her, leading her towards the couch, “It's not good for you to stand for long.”Valerie didn’t resist me and let me make her sit on the couch. After I was done arranging cushions behind her to support her, only then did I look up at Rowan and Axel.“Who did it?” Axel asked from
