“$100,000.” Lucian said from the back of the hall. The air was tense and thick, as if charged with an impending storm. The silence followed was sharp and brittle, the slightest sound would cause the storm to crash. The chandeliers light flickered, casting shadows over everyone’s uneasy and stiff faces. No one moved for a whole minute as this moment seemed fragile, being dominated by both the Moretti and Deluca heirs.

Adrian’s hands clenched, he swore under his breath before yellin

  • Sins of The Mafia   Epilogue

    Lucian’s POV The sky was the soft color of early evening—lavender fading into rose, the kind that always made the world feel quieter, gentler. A rare calm. A rare moment of peace.A moment I had planned for weeks.Sienna had no idea why I asked her to come up to the rooftop, only that Adrian and Gracie insisted on “borrowing the baby for some bonding time.” They had practically snatched him out of her arms before she could even protest.Now, from where I stood, I could see them below us in the garden—Adrian rocking the tiny bundle with surprising gentleness, and Gracie hovering over him like she was guarding a treasure.But up here… this was our moment.The same house where everything once shattered between us.The same house where I first realized I was in love with her.The same house where I almost lost her forever.It felt right that this was where I’d rebuild everything I broke.Sienna stepped out from behind the access door, her hair loose, her body still fragile from everythin

    Sienna's PovMy entire body froze.“What?!” Lucian barked.They carried the baby to the warmer, alarms going off softly. The cry weakened. Turned strained. Labored.“His oxygen saturation is low,” someone said. “Respiratory distress.”No. No no no—“Lucian—” I cried, reaching for him.He squeezed my hand so tight I felt the tremor running through his arm. His voice broke for the first time.“Fix him,” he demanded. “Please—fix my son.”The doctor worked quickly.I couldn’t breathe. “Lucian what’s happening?”He pulled me into his chest, voice shaking. “They’re helping him. He’s strong. He’ll be okay. He has to be.”Our baby let out a weak cry. Then another.The nurse exhaled. “He’s stabilizing. His oxygen levels are improving.”My entire body collapsed in relief.Lucian covered his face with both hands for a moment, shoulders shaking silently, before he leaned down and kissed my forehead over and over.“You did it,” he whispered. "I'm so proud of you."When the nurse finally placed the

    Sienna's PovFor the first time in months, I felt… safe.Like maybe I could breathe with him.Like maybe I didn’t have to be so afraid.Lucian sat beside me, eyes tracing my face like he was memorizing every detail. The wind ruffled his hair as he tucked a hand into his pocket.“Sienna,” he said quietly, stepping closer. “I know I’ve messed up. God knows I’ve made choices you hated… choices I hated too. But today—” He swallowed, gaze softening. “I’ll spend the rest of my life giving you days like this. I’ll give you everything. Just… come back to me. Be mine again.”My heart squeezed painfully.He wasn’t pleading.He wasn’t demanding.He was simply… asking.I think about it. Maybe he really is a changed man. Maybe he really does mean everything this time. So after what felt like forever, I finally make up my mind. “Lucian,” I whispered, breath trembling. “I think I’m finally ready to—”A sharp, crippling pain shot through my abdomen.I gasped, nearly doubling over.“Sienna?” Lucian’s

    Sienna’s POVLucian casually reaches for a piece of toast — my toast — but instead of placing it on my plate, he lifts it to my mouth.Like we’re alone.Like nothing happened.Like three people are not watching us with wide, stunned eyes.I rear back. “Lucian. What are you—”“Feeding you,” he says, tone maddeningly calm. “You didn’t eat a real dinner last night.”My face heats. “Lucian—no—stop—”The man tilts the toast slightly closer. “Open your mouth.”Ivan chokes on his coffee.Adrian slams his spoon down. “Lucian, she can feed herself.”Lucian doesn’t look away from me. “She’s pregnant. She gets tired. I’m helping.”“You’re being insufferable,” I hiss under my breath.He shrugs, not remotely ashamed. “Then eat so I can be done.”It’s the “be done” that gets me — because he’s not budging. And everyone is staring. And if I fight him more, this will turn into another shouting match.So I glare, grab the toast from his hand, and take a bite on my own just to spite him.He smirks like

    Sienna's Pov Everyone stares. Adrian looks furious. Gracie looks like she’s witnessing premium gossip unfold live. Ivan… Ivan looks like someone punched him in the ribs and told him to smile through it. Sienna wants to sink into the floor. Lucian gives a calm, infuriating smile. “Good morning.” The room does NOT respond. Adrian rises from his chair, jaw clenched. “How. Did. You. Get. In.” Lucian shrugs. “I walked in.” He said looking at Gracie with a thankful smile. “You’re not allowed here.” “I’m her husband.” The air cracks. Ivan looks away. Adrian’s eyes flash. I try to intervene, “Lucian, just—” "Yes my love?" He drops a hand round her shoulder, turning his full attention to her, making sure Ivan sees everything. I freezes as heat rushes to my face. “Lucian, stop—” “I’m done being tolerated like a ghost,” he says quietly but firmly. “This is my family too.” Adrian slams his hand on the table. “Your presence stresses her out!” Lucian’s jaw clenches, but instead

    Sienna’s POVSteam curled around me as I stood in front of the bathroom mirror, palms pressed flat against the cool marble. I’d spent the past ten minutes convincing myself that the universe had reset to normal, that last night wasn’t real, and even if it was, surely Lucian would be gone by now.Surely he would be busy. I still can't believe he appeared, messed up my entire equilibrium and kissed the common sense out of me.Chill out, Si! He is still your husband. I took one last steadying breath, tightened the belt of my bathrobe, and pushed open the bathroom door only to pause instantly. "What the-"Lucian was still there.Not “standing casually” still there. Not “leaning by the window” still there.He was sitting on the edge of my bed, elbows braced on his knees, gaze pinned to the door like he’d been waiting for precisely this moment. And when he saw me—His eyes darkened, slow and hungry, sweeping over my damp hair, my flushed cheeks, my robe.My mouth fell open.“You’re still

    Sienna I was confused, what could this be. I opened the door, gently picking the package and taking it in. “It’s late.” I screamed and almost dropped the gift in my hand. On the couch was Ava laying on the couch. “What are you doing here?!” I yelled at her. “Adrian called my cel

    LucianI stared at the art piece in front of me, my mind trying to contemplate what it was. I was not hardwired to understand paintings like my mother did. Or Sienna, since she seemed to be fascinated by every other painting, including the one I'm looking at. It looked like one of the dreams I had

    Lucian I was back in my office, freshly showered. Staring at the text messages I had sent to Valerie two days ago which she had yet to reply. I was aware she was fine as I had people sent to her house to check on her. But why she was avoiding me was a big mystery. Making up my mind, I got up and

    Lucian What the- The air was knocked out of me as Sienna unexpectedly hugged me. This was not what I had planned on confronting on my way home. I was hit with the scent of jasmine and cranberry. Something tightened in my chest and to say the scent made my mouth water would be an understatement.
