MARCO

The car’s engine hummed low as I pulled into the driveway, my grip on the steering wheel tightening. My head throbbed, a dull ache that had been my constant companion these past two days. Work had been relentless—meetings, negotiations, and putting out fires that seemed to spring up faster than I could extinguish them.

Handling the family’s affairs was never easy, but the past forty-eight hours had been especially draining. There had been an ambush at one of our warehouses, and while we managed to fend off the attack, the losses were significant. Supplies damaged, men injured—it was chaos. On top of that, there were whispers of disloyalty within the ranks. I had spent hours interrogating, cross-referencing every bit of information, trying to root out the traitor.

I exhaled sharply, rolling my shoulders as I parked and stepped out of the car. The cool evening air did little to soothe my tension. As I approached the house, two guards at the front door straightened immediately.

  • 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

    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

  • Owned By The Mafia Lord   CHAPTER 408

    MARCO I stumbled out of the SUV before it even came to a full stop. Tony didn’t say a word. He knew better. My shirt was torn down one side, knuckles swollen, lip cracked and bleeding. I could taste blood mixed with whiskey on my tongue. The sun hadn’t come up yet, but the lights at the front of the estate were still on. The place was quiet. Still. Too quiet. No one came to open the door. The guards at the gate didn’t even flinch when I walked past. One of the maids passed through the hallway inside, looked at me from the corner of her eye, then turned like she hadn’t seen me at all. I stepped inside the house, dragging guilt behind me like it weighed a ton. Everything looked the same, but it didn’t feel like home. Not anymore. The hallway was wide and cold. Marble floors. High ceilings. That stupid chandelier my mother picked out hanging above like a noose. I passed the framed portraits. One of them—me and Sarah at the vineyard. I looked happy in that photo. She looked happi

    MARCOI stood in the study for a long time after she left. The door didn’t slam. It just swung softly behind her, like even the house didn’t have the energy to fight anymore. I could hear her footsteps echo down the hallway, fading one by one. Each step felt heavier in my chest than the last. She didn’t yell. Didn’t cry. Didn’t even flinch. She just looked at me like she had nothing left to say, like she was tired of trying, and then she walked out.That silence hit harder than anything she’s ever thrown at me.I stayed frozen for a moment. Then I moved. I started pacing the room like a caged animal, dragging my hand through my hair, my mind racing in every direction. I didn’t know whether to chase after her, say something, stop her. Or maybe I just wanted to scream, break something, anything to stop the guilt from building inside me. But I didn’t do any of that. I just paced.My jaw was locked so tight I could feel the pressure in my temples. My fists clenched at my sides without me

    SARAHThe room was quiet.Soft morning light slipped through the curtains, brushing against my face. I didn’t move. My back ached from the stiff guest sofa, but I didn’t care. I was still in the same gown from the party. It smelled faintly of perfume and shame. The air was heavy. I stared at the ceiling, letting the silence wrap around me.No tears. Not this time.My mind was loud, though. It kept showing me things I didn’t want to see. Sofia’s smile. Marco’s face when he saw her. The hug. The way his arms hesitated but didn’t push her away. And the way the room seemed to shift the second she arrived. Like I didn’t belong anymore.I finally sat up, slowly, letting my feet touch the cold marble floor. It grounded me. Reminded me I was still here, whether they wanted me or not.I opened the door and walked out, not bothering to fix my hair. The hallway was dim, quiet, as if the house was waiting. Watching. I walked toward our old room—Marco’s and mine.The door was open just a little. I

    MADDELENA The room was quiet. Still. Only the soft hum of the chandelier above and the faint clink of glass as I lifted it to my lips. I hadn’t changed out of my gown. I didn’t want to. The fabric still smelled like perfume and the tension of the night. It held the weight of every stare, every silence, every unspoken win. I liked that. I wanted to feel it just a little longer. I sat by the tall window, where the curtains moved just slightly with the breeze. My glass was half full, filled with something dark and strong. Aged. Bitter. It burned a little, but I liked that too. It kept me sharp. I took another sip, slow, and looked out at the quiet estate grounds. The De Luca name still echoed through this house, and tonight, it echoed louder than ever. Because tonight, I reminded everyone who still owned the room. A slow smile crept across my face. I let myself relax in the chair, letting the images from the night wash over me like a slow film. Sofia’s entrance. That was the mom
