MARCO

Tony leaned back in his chair, shaking his head. “The past few weeks have been crazy, man. I don’t even know where to start. Feels like the hits just keep coming.”

“No doubt,” I said, pouring a generous measure of whiskey into three glasses. “Danzo’s finally out of the picture, but the mess he left behind? That’s going to take time to clean up.”

Tony sighed, rubbing his hands over his face. “It’s not just the mess. It’s what it means, Marco. If someone like Carlos could turn on you, someone that close? What the hell are we supposed to do now? Trust anyone? Forget it.”

I nodded, sliding a glass to him and one to Petrov before sitting back down. “Exactly. That’s what’s been eating at me. Carlos was like family. Hell, he was family. And he worked with Danzo to take me down. It makes you question everything.”

Tony took a sip, his eyes narrowing as he stared at the amber liquid. “You’re telling me. The guy smiled in our faces, broke bread with us, laughed at all our dumb jokes… and t

  • Owned By The Mafia Lord   Chapter 509

    SOFIAThe music was loud enough to make the floor thrum beneath my heels. The rooftop lights were golden, soft, making the whole place glow like it belonged to a dream. I sat in a velvet booth near the edge of the club, one leg crossed neatly over the other, a drink in my hand that looked too delicate for the kind of night I wanted.The girls around me laughed and leaned close to each other, the table already littered with glasses, empty bottles, and glittering ice. I barely spoke, but they didn’t seem to mind. They always filled the space for me—talking, gossiping, leaning in to hear my reactions. I didn’t need to perform. I only needed to be here.One of them raised her glass suddenly, her voice half-lost to the bass. “To the comeback of the year!”Laughter rippled around the table. I smiled, tilted my glass toward them, and said softly, “To winning.”They all clinked glasses, the sound sharp and quick like a gunshot. I took a sip, watching the bubbles rise in my drink. One of the w

    THIRD PERSONThe door closed behind Sarah and the room fell quiet. The sound of her heels faded down the hallway, leaving only the hum of the air conditioner and the tension she’d left behind. Marco stood frozen, his hand gripping the edge of the desk, jaw tight. Tony lingered by the door, clearly torn between staying and disappearing.Sofia stayed still. She didn’t speak, didn’t move. She watched him instead, letting the silence sink in. This was the moment she’d been waiting for. The first real crack between them.Marco finally exhaled, a sound closer to a growl than a sigh. “Find out who accessed that shipment. I want everything. Logs, accounts, every trace.”Tony nodded fast. “I’ll get on it right away, boss. But whoever did this… they covered their tracks well. It’s clean. Too clean.”Marco’s hand dropped to the chair as he sat. His eyes looked tired, darker than usual. “It’s too clean,” he muttered again. “This wasn’t random.”Sofia took one slow step forward. “You’re right,” sh

    SARAHThe room froze. Nobody moved. Nobody spoke.The screen still glowed in front of us, lighting the room in a sick, pale hue. Last edited by: Sarah De Luca. The words burned into my eyes, steady and cruel, like they had been waiting to destroy me.For a moment, I couldn’t breathe. My whole body felt cold. It didn’t make sense. I hadn’t even opened that file. I hadn’t touched the system all day. My name shouldn’t have been there.I looked at Marco. He wasn’t saying anything. His face was hard, unreadable, but I could see the storm behind his eyes. His silence was worse than anger. It meant he didn’t know what to believe.“That’s not possible,” I whispered, my voice shaking. “I didn’t do that. I swear, I didn’t—”Marco’s voice cut through the air like a blade. “The system doesn’t lie.”I froze. The way he said it—cold, distant—hurt more than anything.“Marco,” I started again, trying to steady my voice. “You know I’d never—”“Then explain it,” he said, jaw tight.“I can’t. Because I

    THIRD PERSONSofia sat behind her desk, legs crossed, the soft hum of the air conditioner filling the quiet office. Her laptop was open, but not on any document. Netflix ran in full screen. Some ridiculous comedy series, the kind she would have once called trash, but today she couldn’t stop laughing.She leaned back in her chair, sipping her coffee, eyes half on the screen. “Oh, come on,” she muttered to herself, laughing when one of the characters tripped over a cat. “You idiot. How are you even still alive?”Her assistant, Franca, glanced up from her corner. “You’re watching that again?”“It’s comfort television,” Sofia said, smiling. “Pure stupidity. Makes people feel smart.”Franca shook her head with a small laugh. “You’re the only person I know who watches work comedies during work hours.”“That’s because I earned it,” Sofia said, stretching lazily. “Some people stress to survive. I plan ahead.”There was something different about her today. Her face carried that glow of satisfa

    SARAHThe elevator doors opened, and I stepped out beside Marco, the sound of my heels clicking against the marble floor. Morning light streamed through the tall glass windows, cutting across the polished surface of the De Luca building’s lobby. It was one of those quiet mornings where everything felt strangely steady. No chaos, no tension, just the hum of work waiting to begin.Marco glanced down at me as we walked toward the hallway that split off into his and my offices. “You’re smiling,” he said, a small grin tugging at the corner of his mouth.“I’m allowed to,” I said. “Things are calm for once.”He stopped at his door and kissed the top of my head. “Let’s hope it stays that way.”“It will,” I said, half believing it.“Try not to overwork yourself today,” he added, pointing a finger at me.“I could say the same to you.”He smirked. “You could, but you won’t win.”I rolled my eyes and pushed my office door open. “Go work, boss.”He left with that half-smile still on his face, and

    THIRD PERSONSarah woke up to the soft light spilling through the curtains, her body warm against Marco’s. His arm rested around her waist, heavy and protective, his breath calm and even against her neck. She lay still for a while, just listening to that quiet rhythm, letting herself pretend that peace was permanent. It had been weeks since things felt this calm. No harsh words, no cold silence, no distance. Just warmth, simple and steady.When she turned slightly, Marco stirred. His voice came out low and rough. “You’re staring again.”She smiled without opening her eyes. “You talk too much in the morning.”He chuckled softly, half awake. “I’m Italian. We talk even in our sleep.”Sarah rolled her eyes, though a small laugh slipped from her lips. “You’re getting cocky again. Must mean you’re relaxed.”“I am,” he said, brushing his thumb across her jaw. “You’re the reason.”It still caught her off guard, the softness in his voice. She wanted to believe it was real this time, that he wa
