MARCO

The goons gathered my weapons with smug satisfaction, tossing them onto the floor like trophies. My knife. My Glock. The backup pistol. Each piece felt like a part of me being stripped away. I clenched my jaw as the masked man stooped to pick up my gun. He held it up to the dim light, turning it over in his hand like he’d just found buried treasure.

“Nice piece,” he said, his voice dripping with sarcasm as he inspected the setup. “Who’s your plug, Marco? This stuff’s top-tier. Custom job? Or do you just know the right people?”

I didn’t respond, glaring at him in silence. My hands itched to grab it back, to feel the weight of it in my palm, but my wrists were bound tightly behind my back.

“Not much of a talker, are you?” he continued, pacing slowly in front of me. He raised the gun and mimed aiming it, letting out a low whistle. “Damn. This feels good. Might keep it. Hope you don’t mind.”

I didn’t take the bait. Instead, I focused on what they hadn’t found—the tiny chip in my boo

ARE YOU ON CRACK? Or do you have a Child writing this? I mean seriously, you’re confusing us. Didn’t he JUST see Danzo?? How has it been years? Not just that but other comments made with people they just met, yet they know all about them like they’ve known them forever.

  • Owned By The Mafia Lord   Chapter 414

    MARCOI looked up and saw her.Sofia.She stood at the door of my office like she owned the entire building. Arms folded neatly across her chest, hips tilted like she’d just walked off a runway. The same smug look sat on her face, the one I remembered too well. The one that always came right before she tried to push a boundary or walk over someone. There was a glint in her eye, like she thought this was funny. Like popping into my office without notice was some kind of joke.It wasn’t.My first reaction wasn’t shock. It wasn’t even surprise. It was something worse. A deep wave of irritation that started low in my chest and climbed fast. My jaw locked and I felt my fingers curl slightly at my sides. She still knew how to get under my skin. Still knew how to bring chaos with nothing but a smile.“How the hell did you get in here?” I asked, slowly standing up from my chair. My voice was low, steady, but my eyes were cold. “Who let you past security?”She gave a soft laugh. That same laug

  • Owned By The Mafia Lord   Chapter 413

    SARAHThe light coming in from the window was soft and quiet. I didn’t need to check the time to know it was early. Marco was already up. I could hear the sound of drawers opening, the soft creak of leather shoes being pulled on. For a second, I stayed still in bed, eyes on the ceiling. A full week had passed since the party. No drama. No fights. No Maddalena dragging me into anything. Just quiet mornings like this. Peaceful, honest. I wasn’t dreaming. He stayed with me every day. We cooked, we watched TV, we made love, we held each other like the world outside didn’t exist.I pulled the blanket aside and sat up slowly, stretching my arms. There was no tension in my chest. No weight. I felt light. Calm. Like I had a second chance and I could finally live in it.After a quick stop at the bathroom, I let the shower run over me. I scrubbed gently, humming under my breath. I brushed my teeth, washed my face, tied my hair up into a bun. The air was fresh. Not a trace of tension left.When

    SARAHThe house was calm that morning. For the first time in a while, Marco and I had breakfast in peace. He looked rested, soft-eyed… We didn’t talk much, just exchanged a few glances and light words between bites. It was enough.Then Maddalena walked in.She was dressed sharply as usual, navy blazer, white blouse tucked in neatly, gold earrings that probably cost more than my entire wardrobe. Her hair was pinned back like she was heading to a meeting, not a casual morning stroll. Her smile was smooth, pleasant, but I felt it in my stomach. Trouble.“I was thinking,” she said as she took a seat at the table, pouring herself some coffee without asking, “Sarah and I should go out today. Just us.”I looked up.Marco’s head turned slightly. “Where?”“There’s an Italian-themed market downtown. Not too far. They bring in vendors straight from the south. Fresh flowers, wines, cheeses, olive oils, the works. I thought Sarah would enjoy it. Might help her… connect with tradition.”Marco’s eye

    SARAHI woke up to the sound of slow breathing beside me. Marco was still asleep, his arm resting over my waist like he’d done it a thousand times. Maybe he had. I didn’t move at first. I just watched him, trying to figure out what I felt. He looked peaceful, unaware of the weight sitting in my chest. My thoughts were still full of yesterday, the way he stood up to Maddalena, how his hand gripped mine in public like it meant something.I didn’t know if I trusted him again. But I wanted peace.Carefully, I slid out from under his arm, picked up one of his shirts from the floor, and slipped it on. It still smelled like him cologne and something sharp underneath. The air in the room was warm, quiet. I grabbed my bonnet from the side table and tied it on before I started straightening the bed.The room was a mess. Pillows tossed, sheets everywhere. I folded the blanket, set things back in place, and opened the curtains just enough to let the sun peek in. I moved around quietly, not wantin

  • Owned By The Mafia Lord   Chapter 410

    SARAH I woke up to silence. Not the tense kind I’d grown used to. Not the cold, stretched-out quiet that usually meant Marco was angry or Maddalena was lurking somewhere in the shadows. This silence felt different. Still. Gentle, almost like the house itself was waiting for something. I lay there for a few seconds, blinking up at the ceiling. The light coming through the curtains was too bright for early morning. I was already late. I ran a hand across the sheets. They were cool beside me. He was gone. I pushed the blanket off, slipped my feet onto the floor, and reached for my robe. As I tied the belt around my waist, I listened for the usual sounds. The distant click of heels down the hallway. The buzz of Marco on a call. Maids whispering or dishes clinking in the kitchen. But there was nothing. Just the soft hum of air conditioning and birds outside the window. I stepped out of the room, walking barefoot down the hallway. My body was still heavy from sleep, but my mind had alre

  • Owned By The Mafia Lord   Chapter 409

    SARAHThe sun rose without asking how I felt about it.It just spilled through the curtains like everything was fine. Like the world hadn’t cracked open a little bit the night before.I lay there for a while, eyes open, staring at the ceiling. I hadn’t slept much. The bed felt too big, the silence too loud. My thoughts didn’t slow down—they just looped. Marco’s face. The bruises. The blood on his shirt. The sound of him breathing outside my door, like he was running out of air.He looked so lost.And I hated that I still cared.Eventually, I pushed the blanket off and sat up. My body felt heavy, like I hadn’t moved in days. I reached for my robe and padded barefoot to the bathroom. The mirror didn’t lie. My eyes were puffy. Skin dull. But I didn’t care enough to fix anything.I brushed my teeth, tied my hair up, and pulled on a long beige sweater and black leggings. Nothing special. I didn’t want to dress up. I just wanted to breathe.The house was quiet.Too quiet.No chatter from th
