SARAH

I backed away from the kitchen before she could see me. My hands were damp. My heart thudded so loud it felt like my chest might split.

The hallway was dark and quiet. I kept close to the wall and moved slow, every step measured, like one wrong sound would give me away. When I reached the curve by the stairs, I ducked behind the thick column and crouched low.

Then I heard it—

The kitchen door creaked open.

Her heels tapped once, twice. Then nothing.

She stood there. I could feel it. Listening.

I held my breath. My hands were shaking. My knees pressed hard into the marble.

She stayed there for what felt like a lifetime. Then slowly… she turned back and walked in.

The door clicked shut.

I didn’t move right away. I counted to ten. Then ten more.

Finally, I stood, heart still racing, and crept back up the stairs. My legs were stiff, like they didn’t belong to me.

When I slipped into the bedroom, Marco was still asleep, his back turned, chest rising steady. I slid under the covers be

  • Owned By The Mafia Lord   Chapter 506

    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

    SOFIAI scrolled through my contacts until I found Guido as I pressed call.It rang twice before his voice came through, smooth and lazy like melted whiskey. “Sofia,” he said, dragging my name like he was tasting it. Behind him, the sound was wild. Music, laughter, heels clicking on the floor, the clinking of glasses. I could almost smell the smoke through the phone. “Didn’t expect you to call me this late. What’s the matter, angel? You miss me?”I leaned back on the couch, letting my fingers trace the seam of the cushion. “You’re drunk.”“Tipsy,” he said, his voice smooth, teasing. “And surrounded by women who wish they were you. You should come over. I’ll save you a seat, right on my lap.”I smirked. “I’m sure you would. But that’s not why I called.”He chuckled low and dark, a sound that made my chest tighten. “You always sound so serious. I’m starting to think you don’t like me.”“I like useful people,” I said, letting a faint edge curl into my words.The noise behind him faded.

    THIRD PERSON The office buzzed earlier than usual that morning. Word had already spread that Marco had given the green light to test Sarah’s new review system. The idea had come quietly from her during the meeting the day before, almost as an afterthought, yet it caught everyone’s attention. Now, the whole floor wanted to see if it would actually work.Sofia stood by the glass wall of her office, one hand around her coffee cup, the other resting on her hip. Through the reflection, she could see Sarah walking through the hallway, calm and collected. People greeted her with a tone Sofia had never heard them use before. Even the IT head, a man who rarely bothered to smile, gave her a respectful nod.Sofia’s jaw tightened slightly. Her own suggestion had been called “smart” by Marco, but nothing had come of it. Meanwhile, Sarah’s was being implemented the very next day. The memory of Marco’s approving tone the day before played in her head like a quiet taunt. That small nod he gave Sarah

  • Owned By The Mafia Lord   Chapter 501

    SARAHThe house was quiet that night. Too quiet. Marco’s voice carried faintly from the study, low and controlled, the kind he used when he was talking business. I sat on the couch, staring at the dark TV screen, my mind running in circles.Sofia’s face wouldn’t leave my head. That fake, polite smile after the meeting. The kind of smile that meant she thought she’d won something. And that missing file — it didn’t just disappear. Someone wanted me to notice it was gone.The call in the study ended. I heard his chair move, then footsteps down the hall. Marco appeared in the doorway, jacket off, sleeves rolled, a faint frown on his face. He looked exhausted, but my patience had already thinned.“You busy?” I asked quietly.He rubbed the back of his neck. “Just finished. What’s wrong?”I hesitated, trying to keep my tone calm. “A file from my drawer’s missing. The one for the new client reports. I double-checked before we left the office. It was there.”Marco walked closer, standing behin
