Lucien slid from the bed quietly, careful not to wake her. Emilia lay curled under the sheets, her hair tousled, chest rising and falling in soft, even breaths. The aftermath of their passion left traces of warmth on his skin, memories of her scent, her taste, the fire in her eyes, every inch of her seared into him.

He paused at the edge of the bed, observing her. She looked utterly peaceful, completely unaware of him standing there. Her lips parted slightly in a soft, almost imperceptible smile, as though she was dreaming of him. His chest tightened with a mixture of longing and regret, longing because he wanted more time with her, and regret because duty waited and he lost control again with her.

The war had been scheduled two hours ago. Two hours they were already late. And yet… he had let himself be carried away, let her distraction pull him away from everything else. He exhaled slowly.

Gently, he leaned down and pressed a soft kiss to her forehead. Her smile deepened, her hands t

  • Sold To The Mafia Lord   Epilogue / Author’s Note

    Some stories are written in blood. Some are written in fire. And some… are written in love.Emilia Romano walked through the shadows of a world built on power, betrayal, and violence, and she emerged not broken, but forged. She claimed her crown in war, in survival, and in love. She did not bend to fear, she did not kneel to expectation, and she did not surrender to the whispers of weakness.Lucien Moretti, the man who had been a storm in her life, became her anchor. Together, they forged a bond that was more than passion, more than loyalty, it was fire and steel, tempered in trials, battles, and unspoken desire.The empire was theirs, yes, but it was more than that. It was proof that two broken souls could rise together, unshakable and unstoppable. Where others saw weakness in love, they discovered power. Where others saw fear, they saw strength. And where the world whispered danger, they walked as equals, rulers of their destiny.Kira and Julio junior, safe and far from the shadows,

    The estate hummed with quiet authority. Months had passed since the chaos, the wars, the betrayals. Months of rebuilding, reorganizing, and consolidating power. And now… they were unshakable.Lucien sat behind the grand desk in his office, fingers drumming lightly over a map of territories, alliances, and territories to negotiate. His empire had expanded, but it wasn’t just his anymore, it belonged to them both.Emilia entered, every step deliberate, commanding, the fire in her eyes sharper than any blade. Men paused in the hall, instinctively straightening, instinctively respecting the presence of the woman who had tamed him, who had survived beside him, who had ruled beside him, not out of fear, but out of power.“You’re thinking too much,” she said softly, brushing past him to examine the map. “We don’t negotiate from hesitation. We strike with certainty.”Lucien’s lips twitched with a faint smile. “And you’ve become ruthless in your own right. I see it every day.”Her gaze met his

    The chapel was small, almost hidden from the world, lit by flickering candles and the soft glow of twilight filtering through the stained glass. Only a handful of trusted allies and family were present.Emilia adjusted the simple, elegant dress she had chosen, not ornate, not showy. Just herself, strong, unbroken, and ready. She looked at Lucien, standing at the altar, every line of his body tense, yet there was softness in his eyes she had never seen in anyone else.“You look… dangerous,” she murmured, unable to stop a small smile.“And you… unstoppable,” he replied, his voice low, deep, edged with desire and reverence. “You’ve always been my equal. Today… you’ll be my queen, officially.”Her chest tightened, heart hammering. “I’ve already worn the crown in war. Today… I wear it for love.”He watched her walk down the aisle, each step measured, elegant, confident. She carried herself like the woman who had survived bullets, blood, and betrayal, and yet, here she was, unafraid, lumino

    The mornings had grown quieter over the past few months. The war was over, the enemies defeated, and for the first time in what felt like forever, the estate had a calm rhythm.Lucien was slowly healing, his wounds scarred but no longer raw. Bandages replaced with strength and routine. Each day, he felt a little more whole. And through it all, Emilia was there, by his side, unwavering, untouchable, fierce.He watched her across the room as she organized papers, planning the empire, and couldn’t stop the swell of pride in his chest. She wasn’t just surviving; she was thriving, and it was impossible not to admire her strength.Emilia had grown into the role he had unknowingly prepared her for, not just his partner, but his equal, his queen in all but name. She was no longer the girl caught in a world she didn’t understand, she was a force, a strategist, a survivor, and now… a woman he loved openly.“Lucien,” she said softly, catching him watching her, “you look like you’ve been thinking

    The study was quiet except for the faint ticking of the clock. Lucien sat in his chair, one hand brushing absently over the still dried bandages on his side. The war was over. The enemies defeated. Navarro gone. Kira safe and gone.Yet, something heavier weighed on him now. Emilia. She stood near the window, watching the city lights, silent and unflinching. He had fought for her life, for her safety, but could he truly protect her from himself? From the world he ruled?“Emilia,” he said finally, voice low, deliberate. “We need to talk.”She turned, her gaze meeting his. The tension between them was almost unbearable, months of suppressed emotion, dangerous attraction, and shared chaos hanging thick in the air.“I know what you’re going to say,” she murmured. “And I already know I’m not going to like it.”Her chest tightened, heart hammering with anticipation. She had seen him in war, had fought beside him, had felt the fire of his presence, and now… now, they were alone, finally.“I’m

  • Sold To The Mafia Lord   Chapter Two Hundred and Forty-One: A New Beginning For Kira

    The sound of the front door opening pulled Emilia from her thoughts. Lucien was resting on the large sofa in the private lounge, a bandage wrapped tightly around his side from the final battle. She had been keeping him company, making sure he didn’t overexert himself, when Kira’s familiar voice called out.“Lucien. Emilia.”Emilia turned to see Kira stepping inside, her silhouette showing the first clear curve of her pregnancy. She moved carefully, hands lightly pressing against her stomach.“Kira,” Emilia said softly, rising. “You’re showing already. How are you feeling?”Kira smiled faintly, though her eyes were serious. “Better than I feel about staying here. I need… a clean start. Away from this world. Away from all the blood and chaos.”Emilia nodded, understanding immediately. “You don’t have to justify it to us. I mean we get it.”Lucien sat up slowly, wincing as he adjusted his position. “Kira,” he said, voice low but steady. “You’re just walking into the storm of our lives… a
