DANI

“Terzo!” I gasped, jolted to sit, and sobbed. Did I sob in my sleep?

“Hey, hey.” I didn’t realize I wasn’t alone. Celestina held my arms and put me back down. And I was back in bed. The same bed I slept in.

“Where’s Terzo? Tell me he’s okay?” Hot tears formed in my eyes again and streamed down my face.

“He’s fine.”

“He’s—” I hiccuped. “He’s—” I threw myself at Celestina and hugged her tight. I sobbed in her arms for I didn’t know how long.

She let me as she rubbed my back. I felt like I just found my big sister in her. I continued sobbing until I felt like I couldn’t breathe anymore.

“Dani, don’t pass out again.” Did I pass out? “Drink water.”

I pulled away and took the glass she offered. My hands were still shaky, and she helped me put the glass to my lips. I drank a little and breathed deeply.

“Terzo is fine,” she said calmly.

I met her gaze. “How could you be so calm when he almost died because of that stupid book? I—” I swallowed hard, realizing who Terzo was in my life. “I

  • Mafia's Redemption: TERZO   Chapter 58

    TERZO“How’s your broken heart?” Katie asked as she slid onto the stool.It had been forty-eight hours since I last spoke with Dani over the phone, and she didn’t pick up after that, nor reply to my messages. And I was losing hope and patience.“I’m losing my shit, Katie.” I raised my middle finger at her, downing the alcohol that burned my throat immediately. I didn’t even wince. “I called you for advice.”“Marital issue is not my forte. Ask me how to con her stepfather, I’m all in.” She called the bartender and ordered a Martini.“I don’t know what to do anymore. My sister would not talk to me about my wife. I couldn’t get into the penthouse. She and her husband removed me from the visitor list.”“Is that so?” She grinned. “Since when did you lose your way? You broke into the most heavily guarded russian mafia compound. Penthouse? It’s a piece of cake, but I know why you don’t wanna try.”“I don’t want my sister to hate me. I don’t want a divorce because if I mention it, that’s the

    DANIMy heart pounded against my ribcage as I watched Terzo on the monitor as he arrived at the private parking area of this building.“Well, it didn’t take long. Lake called earlier while you were in the shower. He said Terzo was at the mansion asking for you. He thought I brought you there, but what’s funnier is when Lake thought that I kidnapped you,” Maverick said proudly as if she just won an argument in court. Maverick told me how she met Lake. I stared at her for long seconds, digesting what she said. I knew she wouldn’t just joke about something, like her contract marriage with Lake Winston, a billionaire. And then she found out later on that she was the secret love child of Don Gaetano Siciliano with her estranged mother. She was raised by her Nana, who got kidnapped and was threatened by my brother. But there was always a villain in a love story. In their case, it was Lake’s father, Wallace, who hired my brother. Apparently, she and Lake fell in love and had a beautiful ba

    TERZOI watched my fake self on my phone. It was like watching a rerun with the same scenario over and over again.“My father is not a patient man, Atty. Davis, and he won’t be in the position for long. He’s retiring, and I’m taking over the family business.” Tristan sat in the chair in his newly renovated kitchen. Marco and Gio were waiting outside. “Then tell your father to come here to collect.” My eyebrows raised at his response. “I know I promised you last month, but what I can afford right now is half.” He tied the robe. He was still wearing his sleepwear inside. “That’s not what we talked about. You took money from me to pay your gambling debt. The people you owe money to are not as patient as me. You pay me by the end of this week, or I will tell your wife about your gambling addiction. Your daughter is pretty, by the way. She goes to a law school downtown, am I right?”He steeled, eyes widening in fear. “Don’t touch my daughter. I’m a lawyer. I can make your life a living

    DANI“Is this what you want?” He stood before me, eyes blazing. His intimidating figure towered over me, imposing control. His expression was beyond fury. The tension in his shoulders showed otherwise.I instantly sensed violence. It was everywhere. I felt a monster lurking. I felt his rage, and it was overwhelming. I wanted to back away, but my feet were rooted to the ground.We were supposed to be at Winston’s house right now, but he chose to turn around rather than let the car stop. I chose not to reply. I chose to keep my mouth shut. We had already exchanged arguments. I already said something I regretted, and his words hurt me beyond anything. It was embarrassing and unforgivable.Without uttering another word, he grabbed me by the elbow. His grip was firm, burning my skin, and he strode towards the elevator. He punched the button many times as if the car would rush down for him.The guys stayed behind quietly, not a word on the way back when he threatened them.Once it opened be

    TERZOMy words hit differently, gripped through my bones, and poisoned my heart. Dani felt every word I said. It wasn’t supposed to be overdramatic. It was supposed to be a wish. If something bad happened to me, I didn’t want her to mourn. I wanted her to move on and enjoy her life. I meant it even if it hurt thinking she was with somebody else, that someone was touching her and calling her mine. I didn’t give a shit about Humphries because I knew he didn’t deserve Dani. He was an asshole and didn’t know how to respect women. He wanted to be in control and let women worship him like a god, not the other way around. He was nothing without his father’s money and influence.I lost myself in my thoughts as I let the hot water massage my tense muscles. I felt the exhaustion physically and mentally. My wedding in Las Vegas was still fresh in my head, yet a lot of things happened in between. I couldn’t shake the feeling that a lot worse was about to come.I didn’t believe in premonition o

    DANI“Hey. Thanks for coming to her.” Katie rolled her eyes. “You wouldn’t be there if it wasn’t for me.”I could see it now why they remained good friends. They had each other’s backs. Terzo was right. They would take a bullet for one another.“Still, you came to inform me. That’s kind of you. Sorry if I doubted your intention earlier. I was just worried.” I felt ashamed about my behavior. I was too caught up in my possessiveness, insecurity, and my emotions. “No need to apologize. I would have been dead by now if he had not saved my life. So I would do anything for him.”I played with my food. I barely touched it. There was a lot in my head. It just didn’t add up. “The timing could not be a coincidence.”“What?”“Huh?” I stared at Terzo. Did I just say it out loud?“You said the timing could not be a coincidence.”“Yeah. Your arrest. I don’t know. Maybe I’m just overthinking it.”“What’s important is his out.” Katie enjoyed her noodles like nothing had happened this morning. I gue
