My Billionaire Ex Or My Mafia Bestie Chapter 62 — Five Years
Sofia turned five on a bright Saturday in late spring, and the penthouse filled with more noise and glitter than it had ever reasonably been designed to hold — a dozen of her classmates, a bounce castle Victor had insisted on despite Nico's skepticism about structural load limits on a penthouse terrace, and a cake shaped, at Sofia's very specific instruction, like a dinosaur wearing a crown."She's going to run a country someday," Nico said, watching her direct the other children with the easy, unbothered authority of a girl who'd never once doubted her own judgment. "God help whichever one it is.""God help us," Victor corrected, catching a stray balloon before it could float off the terrace entirely. "We're the ones who have to survive her adolescence first."I watched them both from the kitchen doorway, five years into a life that still sometimes felt improbable in its ordinariness — the particular miracle of birthday cake and bounce castles and the low-grade chaos of a half-dozen
My Billionaire Ex Or My Mafia Bestie Chapter 61 — The Manuscript
The literary agent's name was Priya Anand, and she read the first three chapters of my attempt at a memoir over a single weekend, calling me first thing Monday morning with an enthusiasm that startled me."This is remarkable," she said. "The way you've written the danger, the found family, the sheer improbability of it all — readers are going to respond to this. I want to be careful, though. Before we go any further, I need to understand exactly how much of this is safe to publish. Names, locations, identifying details.""That's exactly what I've been worried about," I admitted, sitting at the kitchen table with my laptop, Victor across from me pretending to read through quarterly reports while obviously listening to every word. "I want to tell the story. I don't want to put Sofia at risk doing it.""Then let's talk about what that actually means," Priya said. "Because there's a version of this that reads as a thinly veiled account of real events with real names changed just enough to
My Billionaire Ex Or My Mafia Bestie Chapter 60 — Aftermath
Life folded itself back into ordinary shape faster than I expected after Konstantin's final letter — faster, certainly, than it had after Kessler, when the fear had lingered for weeks even after the danger was gone. Maybe it was Sofia, three years old now and utterly unbothered by any of it, dragging us all back into the rhythm of daycare pickups and bedtime stories and the particular chaos of a toddler who'd recently discovered the word "why" and intended to use it on every sentence anyone spoke in her presence. Maybe it was simply that we'd learned, over the past two years, how to let peace be peace instead of waiting anxiously for the next blow to land."She asked me today why Papa Victor works so much," Nico said one evening, watching Sofia arrange a small army of stuffed animals across the living room floor with the intense focus of a general planning a campaign. "I told her it's because he likes buildings full of people arguing about money. She said that sounded boring and went
My Billionaire Ex Or My Mafia Bestie Chapter 59 — The Move
Konstantin's plan, once he laid it out fully, was simpler than I expected and more dangerous than I wanted to admit."Dmitri's support isn't as solid as it looks from the outside," he explained, back at the gallery, voice low even in the empty room. "Many of the older lieutenants follow him out of fear, not loyalty. Fear that if they don't fall in line, they become the next example of what happens to people who hesitate. If I can show them a different example — that hesitation, caution, even mercy, still has a place in how this organization survives — some of them may reconsider where their loyalty actually belongs.""And I'm supposed to be that example," I said."Not directly," Konstantin said. "I would never ask you to appear before them, to speak, to be seen at all if I can help it. But a recorded statement — carefully controlled, never revealing your location, never showing your daughter — acknowledging that you exist, that you are Renata's daughter, and that you've chosen a life
My Billionaire Ex Or My Mafia Bestie Chapter 58 — Neutral Ground
The meeting was set for a private art gallery on the city's east side, closed for a "private viewing" that Victor's money had arranged on six hours' notice — enough time to sweep the building twice, position Nico's people on every entrance and rooftop with a sightline, and still leave Konstantin Volkov's own security enough room to feel like the arrangement wasn't a trap, even though, in every practical sense, it was designed to be exactly that if things went wrong."He's here," Nico said quietly into his earpiece, watching a car pull up on the security feed from the small office we'd claimed as a command post one floor above the gallery itself. "Alone in the car. Two men outside as escort, staying at the perimeter like we agreed.""How does he look?" I asked, my voice steadier than I felt."Older than his photographs," Nico said, studying the screen. "Tired. Not what I expected from a man supposedly fighting to hold onto power."I smoothed my dress with hands that wouldn't quite stop
My Billionaire Ex Or My Mafia Bestie Chapter 57 — Choosing a Side
"If we're doing this," Nico said the next morning, spreading a new set of files across the table — files that had materialized overnight through channels I still didn't fully understand, some combination of his own family's remaining connections and favors Victor's money could still call in — "we need to understand exactly what we'd be helping Konstantin against. Not just Dmitri as a person. His actual power base.""What have you found?" I asked."Dmitri's built his support on speed and brutality," Nico said. "Younger lieutenants, impatient with Konstantin's more cautious approach. He's consolidated control over the organization's Western European operations in the past eight months alone — faster than anyone expected, which suggests he's either extremely capable or extremely reckless, possibly both." He tapped a photograph clipped to the file — a man in his thirties, sharp-featured, cold-eyed in a way that reminded me uncomfortably of the men who'd once come for me on a dark island l
