Luca and Dev were adjusting the table to accommodate an extra person and pulling her up a chair, seating her between Lemar and Luca.

Lemar was staring at her like he’d just discovered gold.

“How,” he said slowly, “are you not signed?” “Every fuckin gendre nailed. I have never heard anything like it.”

He shook his head in disbelief.

Liana ducked her head, her cheeks turning rosy as five sets of eyes trained on her like she was a unicorn come to life.

  • Mafia's Obsession - The CEO's Contracted Songbird    Chapter 82 - Old Relatives, New Revelations

    LucaMason had informed me of Arianna being orphaned at four years old and already I sensed that this was just the opening volley. “I need to warn you,” he said quietly. “This next part…” I sat forward. “Just say it.” He nodded once. “She had an older brother.” A strange feeling crept up my spine. “According to police reports,” he continued, “there was a domestic incident. Her father shot her mother… then her brother.” My stomach dropped. “All in front of her. And then when he was about to shoot her… when someone intervened.” “Who?” I asked. “Seamus O’Connelly. He arrived… shot the father before he could pull the trigger.” Silence filled the room after he dropped that bombshell. Heavy. Suffocating. “She was taken in by the O’Connelly family. He took her home that same night.” Mason went on, quieter now. “Adopted a year later. Medical records show severe PTSD. She stopped speaking completely… for two years.” I closed my eyes briefly. Jesus. A four-year-old… Watching that? No

  • Mafia's Obsession - The CEO's Contracted Songbird    Chapter 81 - A Family Torn Asunder

    Luca Dinner felt… wrong. Not because of the food—my mother had outdone herself like always—but because of everything sitting beneath the surface. Too much had happened. Too close. Too fast. Zia Yvette was back. Alive. Injured, but alive. That alone should have been enough to lift the weight in the room. But it didn’t. Because we all knew how close it had come. I glanced at my parents. Their eyes were red, both of them trying—and failing—to hide it. My chest tightened. We could have lost him today. My father. That reality hadn’t fully hit me until now, sitting across from him, watching the way his hand would occasionally brush against his glass like he needed something solid to anchor him. I swallowed hard and forced my gaze away. Because if I let myself go down that road… I wouldn’t come back from it tonight. My Zio was eating like it was a necessity with a timer and every few minutes his eyes would drift to the staircase. His mind was upstairs, where Zia Yvette lay sedated.

  • Mafia's Obsession - The CEO's Contracted Songbird    Chapter 80 - Predators Watch, Prey Sleep

    Adriano The fact that my mother was back - alive, breathing, - home, safe —still hadn’t fully settled in my bones. Even sitting at the table, surrounded by family, it didn’t feel real. Zia Maria had gone all out. The table was filled—more food than we could possibly eat. The kind of spread she reserved for celebrations… for joy. But tonight? There was no laughter and jokes. Everyone spoke in hushed tones when they did speak. There was certainly no teasing, no easy conversation. Just silence stretched thin over everything between courses. The atmosphere was stifling, tense...fragile. Like a comment too loud might shatter the relief we all felt. I watched them. My aunt… my uncle… Both of them had red-rimmed eyes. Subtle. Hidden behind forced composure—but I saw it. It was obvious they’d been crying. Of course they had. It could have easily gone the other way today. We all knew it. One wrong move… one miscalculation…And we wouldn’t be sitting here sharing a meal. We’d be planni

  • Mafia's Obsession - The CEO's Contracted Songbird    Chapter 79 - My Father's Eldest Son Part 2

    Liam M father had called out to me, but I hadn’t stopped. I just wanted to get away. To process my pain and heartbreak elsewhere in private. As I got to the top of the stairs, his hand grabbed my shirt, trying to stay my escape. I was too enraged, throat locked and tears burning my eyes. I just wanted to get away - I surged forward and tore free. Then—The sound. A shout. A sickening thud. The sound is wrong. A dull, wet thud,crack, thud, thud as my fathers body rolled down the stairs. I froze midstep, the fall playing before my eyes like a nightmare come to life. The rage drained out of me in an instant leaving ice in it’s place. “Dad?” I had said in a hoarse whisper. My breath hitched. Even now, even after all this time. I saw it like it was happening again. His body at the bottom of the stairs. Broken. Still. Blood trailing from his head. I moved without thinking, taking the stairs three at a time, nearly tripping over myself. My father lay there, body crumpled, blood already

  • Mafia's Obsession - The CEO's Contracted Songbird    Chapter 78 = My Father's Eldest Son Part 1

    Chapter 78 – My Father’s Eldest Son Part 1 Liam The drive home should have felt like victory. Hell, by every measure—it was. I had outmanouvered the Morettis. Secured port access that would expand my operations beyond anything I’d built through the docks and my Florida Keys outlets. Power. Reach. Control. Everything I had fought for. And yet…I sat there in silence, staring out the window as the city blurred past, unease coiling low in my gut. Luigi’s last words echoed in my head. Over and over. A quiet warning wrapped in something heavier… something I couldn’t quite place. “All good?” Ronan asked, glancing at me from the driver’s seat. Of course he noticed. He always did. I forced my expression into something neutral, something believable. I tapped the folder resting on my lap—the deeds. “This...this comes at a price,” I said evenly. “There’s going to be a war. We need to be ready.” Ronan’s lips curved into that familiar smirk—the one that belonged to the killer in him. “

    Adriano Zio Luigi’s call came just after the exchange. I stepped away from the noise, my pulse still hammering from everything that had just gone down, and answered on the first ring. “All is a go,” he said, his voice steady, controlled. “We have Yvette. No incidents. We’re on our way back.” For a second… I couldn’t breathe. The tension that had been strangling my chest for days finally loosened, like a vice cracking open. My eyes shut briefly as I exhaled, slow and heavy. “She’s alive?” I asked, needing to hear it again. “She’s alive,” he confirmed. “Weak, sleeping now. Denton treated her as best he could, but she’ll need a doctor when we get in. Head wound, some bruising… but she’s strong.”Strong. That word overpowered all the other clamouring thoughts.A shaky breath left me, something dangerously close to relief threatening to break through the steel I’d been holding myself together with.“Grazie, Zio,” I murmured, voice thick with overflowing emotions.When the call ended

    Liana I had just finished making take-away bags for all the guys and putting away the balance of the food. I entered the Den and it was already humming with anticipation, laughter and cigar smoke in the air. Cards were being shuffled, chips stacked with ritualistic precision, voices overlapping

    Liana Adriano called after 5pm to let me know he and Luca would be a bit late. A last minute emergency came up. It shouldn’t have bothered me. It absolutely did. “How could he leave me alone to welcome his guests?” I checked the spread on the kitchen island for the third time, nudging bowls i

  • Mafia's Obsession - The CEO's Contracted Songbird    Chapter 21 - Training wheels for Bachelors

    Adriano Denton pulls the car around just after eight. As I slide into the back seat, adjusting my cuffs, I say it like it’s a business instruction—precise, unemotional. “Please pick up Liana at 1pm and take her to the hospital. She wants to catch the doctors after rounds.” Denton nods. “Of cou

  • Mafia's Obsession - The CEO's Contracted Songbird    Chapter 13 - Kitchen Meetings

    Liana I didn’t remember falling asleep. One moment I was staring out the car window, the early dawn casting faint light and buildings blurring into one another, exhaustion pressing down on me like a physical weight. And the next, I was drifting, wrapped in warmth that didn’t smell like antisept
