Another hour has passed but I’m still wide awake in my room. I wasn’t expecting Cane’s reaction towards Colette, now I’m worried that she’s my sister. If she is, I need a plan B. But my gut tells me she’s not. It’s the same gut-feel that has saved me time and time again in the past. I have no reason to doubt it now.

Then there’s Alex, why does he feel the need to protect her? Protect her from who? Me? Why?

I’ve only been the patriarch for two days and I feel like retiring already. I need to think of another plan on how to satisfy the family. My whole plan was solid. The only problem is, it hinges on one thing.

The f*cking box.

Maybe I wasn’t that smart after all.

I spent the rest of the night designing a new tactical scenario that we can use for our future operations. Similar to police operations, we also have situational protocols and I drill these to my men to ensure their survival all the time. I give them all the tools to survive so it’s up to them if t

  • My Tenant is a Mafia Prince   Chapter 38 – Offers and Counter-offers

    “I was investigating some mafia activities. I received a tip that they were lurking here and I decided to check it out,” Colette replied casually.But I can tell the old man was not buying it. He was about to say something when he finally noticed me and decided to hold his thought.“If there’s nothing else, you can leave now. The dead won’t crawl out from the grave no matter how much flowers we put into it,” she said with so much hatred I could feel her stare was scalding. And I somehow sympathize with her old man.“Be careful, Colette. There are some places in the East that even I could not navigate,” he warned before signalling his men to leave.As soon as the convoy of cars were out of sight, Colette plopped on the grass and heaved a deep breath.“My mom’s alive,” she admitted to my surprise. “I don’t know why I’m telling you this, but I’m so tired Steffan,” she said while wiping the tears on her cheeks. For a moment, I wanted the world to stop for the two of us. Seeing her vulnera

    “Officer Johnny, what a coincidence?” I asked with my heart pounding in my chest.“What are you doing in this posh area?” the good officer probed while looking behind the mansion gate.“My friend lives here. We meet up every week to catch up. We’ve been friends even when I was still on the streets,” I explained casually.“Oh?” he sounded doubtful. “Since we’re already friends, why don’t you introduce us?” he offered before slightly turning the wheels to make a U-turn.“Not now, he’s in a bad mood. You know old people and their temper,” I chuckled to hide my nervousness. I could feel the cold air from the AC but I could still feel the cold sweat dripping on my back with Johnny’s hawk-like focus on me and on our surroundings.“I didn’t know you’re driving a taxi? Is it allowed on your days off?” It’s my turn to interrogate.“I visited my in-laws. Well, ex-in-laws. I cannot use a police car in an unofficial business so I had to use one of my taxis. It’s a coincidence that one of the driv

  • My Tenant is a Mafia Prince   Chapter 36 – Shoot on Sight

    When I reached the mansion, I was greeted with the usual residents. Cane was on a business call based on his serious tone while Twig is letting out a mischievous smile just looking at me without saying a word.Finally, Cane ended the call and now he has time for me.“Alex will stay at the hospital for another day. I hope you’re happy with these games you’re playing. Alex is too valuable to be your pawn,” he stated with gritted teeth.“I’m not the one playing games. Maybe it’s time you put him in place and ask him to think with his head instead of his d*ck,” I snapped back.“Ohhh, someone’s in a bad mood,” Twig teased and Cane threw me a sharp look.“Maybe I should tell you that. What were you thinking entering the West territory twice? And in consecutive days,” he suddenly asked.And before I could respond he played a voicemail.‘It has come to my attention that your mafia prince was seen loitering around my territory. Twice. Given his position in your organization, I consider him as

  • My Tenant is a Mafia Prince   Chapter 35 – Elena

    As soon as I reached the amusement park, I went to the Ferris Wheel booth to meet up with my brother. I can’t believe how much he has grown in just a year. And I know having heavy responsibilities tends to have that effect. But as soon as he saw me, he burst into tears and suddenly he’s a child again. “It’s okay, Dem. Don’t worry about it,” I comforted. My heart sank at the vastness of the amusement park. I don’t even know where to begin. “What’s her behaviour this morning?” I asked trying to find any clue that could help us on our search. “I noticed her become fidgety when our neighbour Mrs. Enriquez received a package. It was packaged with red fragile tape and that’s when I noticed she started tapping on the door,” Dem recalled. Why is it that there’s no pattern on her triggers? Every episode is different making it harder to predict her behaviour. “We have no choice but to search stall

  • My Tenant is a Mafia Prince   Chapter 34 – Hopeful Disappointments

    “Come on, say it,” Colette urged as soon as we reached our apartment. She’s been quiet the whole drive home so I stayed quiet too. Maybe seeing Alex in that situation has stirred old emotions in her and I don’t want to disturb that.“Say what?” I asked softly.“Say that what I did was wrong. And childish and dangerous,” she said with misty eyes. I tried so hard to control it but a smile crept in my face. I have never met someone whom I wanted to spoil so much. Her innocent urge to get justice, her brave defiance, and her vulnerable way of disregarding her safety for the sake of others. Those characters are worth protecting for the rest of my life. Characters I aimed for but could not achieve.Or maybe because, she’s Colette.My Colette.And maybe, that made all the difference.Slowly, I pulled her closer to lock her in my embrace. “Colette, with me around, you can do whatever you want. And you can have whatever you desire. I’ll take care of it,” I said while pressing her pressure poi

    “I meant your storage room,” I replied trying to conceal my slip up. “I’ll settle it next time. Right now, we need to check on Alex,” she replied worriedly. I watched as she casually manoeuvred the car and before I knew it, we’re now driving to the emergency section of the hospital. I didn’t say anything on the way back because I can’t find anything good to say. But when she unbuckled her seatbelt with the same worried expression on her face, I let out a piece of my mind. Otherwise, I don’t know what I would do. “I see you’re still concern about your ex,” I said with no emotion. &l
