I looked at other leaders, ignoring Raven like he wasn’t present here. Some had neutral expressions, some looked like they were also looking forward to working with me, but one or two leaders looked like they didn’t like me here, but they didn’t say anything.

The discussions began, covering various topics from territory disputes to financial agreements.

“We’ve had some interference in our business, near the northern docks,” one of the local leaders said. “I believe some of Falcone’s men were spotted there.”

Rowan leaned back slightly in his chair, and he looked coldly at the leader who spoke. “If they were mine, you wouldn’t be guessing.”

The man’s jaw tightened, but he didn’t respond back.

Harvey interjected smoothly, his tone neutral. “There might have been a miscommunication. We will have someone from our side review the patrol schedules. No one wants unnecessary conflict, especially not during transitions.”

I nodded, keeping my voice calm. “Appreciated, Harvey. And yes, we’ll ensu

  • Mafia's Forbidden Desires   You already dragged me through hell

    “Look at me,” his voice echoed in my ears clearly. “Valerie.” He shook my body, called my name again and again.I tried to blink, to open my mouth. But nothing happened. My body couldn’t react. I felt fear rush through my bones. What was happening to me? Was it fear? Panic? Or was I losing control over my senses?Raven let go of me. I felt the gravity pulling me towards it. But before I could touch the ground, Raven picked me.He walked to the bathroom in no time and turned the shower on.Cold water hit my skin, making me feel currents and goosebumps. Blood rushed to my brain, and my fingers twitched. A loud sigh escaped my lips. “Raven.”I managed to speak, to utter a word. Though it was his name, it didn’t matter. All that mattered was that I spoke. I was finally able to speak. I was able to react.“Valerie.” He held me in his hands, calling me again and again.I shook his grip on my arms and tried to take a step back. “What the hell are you shouting for?”Raven paused, taking a goo

  • Mafia's Forbidden Desires   It was like he put a spell on me, and I couldn’t say a word

    Raven Blackwood POV:A few days passed.The plan I set was already working. Valerie was losing deals. Almost every deal. And the reason was me.I looked at the wedding contract on my desk, which looked all set and ready for My Wife. I looked at the time on my watch and stood up. It was only a week left for Elvis to return. And tomorrow I was going to marry the woman I was obsessed with.The streets were filled with traffic, and I felt my patience wearing thin. How I wish I rather taken a helicopter rather than this Aston Martin? But I was already halfway, so I could just endure.I finally reached the Thorne Residence. The security guard opened the door the moment he saw me. Everyone here knew who I was, and they knew better than to waste my time.As I stepped inside the residence, I adjusted the cuffs of my shirt. My reflection stared back at me in the metal walls. I had waited too long for this day. Valerie could hate me all she wanted. It didn’t matter. After tomorrow, she would be

  • Mafia's Forbidden Desires   I shouldn’t have done it, but I did it anyway!

    Raven Blackwood’s POV:I shouldn’t have done it, but I did it anyway!Burning the warehouse wasn’t in my plans, but I did it anyway. It was her first victory, Against Me. I should have protected it, but I ruined it, Myself.I watched the fire and ashes burning to the ground. Smoke cam thick, and flames rose higher. It was both beautiful and cruel in a way. It was her punishment, her warning, from me! And she would understand it sooner or later.I leaned back in my chair, still watching the video on my phone, satisfied. People were running, shouting.Then, I imagined her face, shocked and angry. She was too proud to cry in front of anyone. But I knew her. I had studied her since the moment she walked into my world, wearing her father's name like a crown she hadn’t earned yet.She was bold, smart and ambitious. But still too soft inside. And softness? Softness gets you killed in our world.I lit a cigarette and looked out of my office window. The city was quiet tonight. But it was never

  • Mafia's Forbidden Desires   Find out who did it

    I didn’t sleep that night.Even though my body was tired, my mind refused to stop running from every thought. Every small thing from the Rosario deal replayed in my head, Charles’s forced smile, the lean guy’s sharp and mocking words, even Jeremy’s almost half smile. It all sat heavy in my chest.I missed Papa. How I wished, he was here, and everything was fine. A tear skipped down my eye, though I forced myself not to cry.By morning, I had read the same sentence in my file ten times without understanding it. I shut the folder a while later.A few moments later, I heard a knock on the door. I didn’t look up, and I didn’t answer either. Just in the next second, Jeremy entered the living room anyway. His face didn’t show any expression, but the way he moved, the tension in his shoulders told me something was wrong.I stood up immediately and asked. “What is it?”Jeremy didn’t answer right away. Instead, he stepped forward and held out his phone for me to see. “It’s better if you see it

  • Mafia's Forbidden Desires   Should we stop them?

    Valerie Thorne’s POV:Elvis left. He got an urgent call from his home a week ago. So, he immediately left for his hometown. And here I was, still struggling, still trying to win more local alliances.In place of Elvis, the other guard, Jeremy, remained by my side in all the meetings. He wasn’t as chatty or friendly as Elvis. But he was efficient. He was quiet most of the time, but he was a good observer. And most importantly, he was loyal to Raven, not me. And that fact alone kept me on edge.Every word I said, every step I took, I knew it was being reported back. I wasn’t paranoid, just realistic. This world didn’t give me the luxury of trust.Today, I had another meeting scheduled. This time, it was arranged with the Rosario faction. They were small time gang, but vicious. And they were known for switching sides when things got messy, exactly the kind I needed on my side before anyone else got to them.Jeremy opened the car door for me without a word. I stepped inside and adjusted m

  • Mafia's Forbidden Desires   Because if you fall… I want to be there when it happens

    I shrugged my shoulders, and my expression remained neutral. “She needed a push. Now, we will see if she is truly capable or if she will crumble under the pressure.”Axel chuckled, his eyes gleaming with amusement. “I won’t mind seeing her crumble. She is too soft for this life.”I looked in the distance. I knew she was too soft for this life. And I would make her strong, I vowed silently, I would make her my equal. She will never crumble, and if she did, I would stand right by her side to hold her, to protect her, to keep her safe.Rowan said nothing more, he just stood up. “Keep an eye on her. She will either prove herself to be the best, or she will become the problem we will need to deal with.”I nodded, my smile faded for a second as the seriousness of the situation set in. I looked at him meaningfully, “We are all watching, Rowan. She is not the only one who has something to prove.”Rowan’s eyes met mine like he was warning me of something, but I just smirked, knowing, how a cer
