Kelly's POV

“The treat is on me like I said on the phone.” Clara insisted, beckoning on a waitress. Clara was one of the friends I made during the time my baby shower was at hand.

She had been so supportive of my career since I told her about it two years ago and it was heartwarming that I treated her rina dinner but here she was acting stubborn.

“I insist, Clara. This is my treat. I was the one who got into the modelling world and is not famous for her iconic catwalk. Why should I let you pay for our dinner?”. I asked, my voice laced with a hint of disappointment.

Clara stretched out her hand and caressed mine.

“Because I insist. I didn't get to see you the moment you gave birth to your angel. As disheartened as I am, I want to make it up to Ivy through her sweet mother who has been a good friend to me in the past two years.”

“Whatever, Clara boy just knows that whatever I am eating here today, I am not eating it with all my heart. I am not satisfied with your decision.”

  • Claimed by the ruthless Mafia Lord   Chapter 189

    Kelly's POV Our car rolled to a stop right In front of the supreme court. Daniella stepped out with a baby cart. She opened it up and put Ivy inside. I stepped out with Camille bay my side. We exchanged smiles and walked into the court. Alex's car approached a few minutes later and he walked into the court room, seating a few seats across from me.The courtroom was filled with quiet murmurs from all walks of life. I could feel the tension in the air. I smiled at Camille, as we made our way to the front. Daniella sat close to me, rocking Ivy gently in her cart while giving me a reassuring smile. Daniella was like a precious gem. She played the role of a mother perfectly to Ivy for five days. I touched her thighs gratefully.I glanced across the room and found Alex already watching me, his presence calming my nerves. He gave me a small nod and then smiled as if telling me I wasn’t alone. Of course I knew I wasn't alone in this. I had him, our pumpkin, Daniella and Camille.Taking a d

  • Claimed by the ruthless Mafia Lord   Chapter 188

    Kelly's POV One week later.“I am confident I can hold her, Alex. It's been a week and I have added four kilograms to my former weight. I am strong enough.” I sat up straighter in the hospital bed, my voice filled with quiet determination. Alex's worried eyes softened, but he wasn't convinced. He hesitated, hovering close while taking in every detail of my face. I could tell from his soulful brown eyes that he was still worried I might break. I stretched out my arms expectantly, my heart pounding as Ivy’s little giggle filled the room. “Please, Alex. I am strong enough to hold her. You worry too much.”Finally, Alex sighed and placed her gently in my arms. Warmth spread through me instantly. It was electrifying and tears were pricking my eyes. I kissed her soft cheek, whispering, “Mommy’s here now, pumpkin.”Ivy giggled and I hugged her, sniffing her natural fragrance. “Today Martha is hearing at the court by noon. I would be attending with my lawyer,” Alex said firmly, his voice

  • Claimed by the ruthless Mafia Lord   Chapter 187

    Kelly's POVThe gun shot rang out, loud and deafening, echoing through the walls like thunder. My whole body froze, my feet rooted beneath me, my ears ringing as the smell of smoke filled the air. I squeezed my eyes shut, certain that the bullet was aimed at me and that this was probably the end of the world for me. But when I slowly opened my eyes only to realize I was still standing. With a trembling hand, I reached for my temple and touched it, no wound, no pain, no blood. Wait…..what?Why am I still standing?Who was the gunshot for?.I turned slightly and there was the almighty Adrian staggering back while clutching his chest. Fresh blood seeped through his shirt as his gun slipped from his hand.Relief and shock wrecked my body at once.I am alive!I am alive!I shouted in my head and without thinking, I bolted forward, my legs moving based on my instinct and without warning, I threw myself into Alex’s arms. His arms wrapped around me instantly, strong and steady, as if he

  • Claimed by the ruthless Mafia Lord   Chapter 186

    Kelly's POVThe twisting of the door knob forced me out of unconsciousness.The door creaked and Adrian stepped in, holding a plate of food. He placed it nonchalantly on the floor, the content spilling on the floor. I stared at the unrecognizable substance in the plate that was both nauseous and disgusting I raised my head, our gaze locked.“Let me go, Adrian.” I muttered with the falling strength I had in me.This was my fifth day in captivity without food and barely a few drops of water to quench and sustain me. My meals were always served at the same time, twice a day but I couldn't bring myself to eat it. It couldn't be poisonous and was highly unhealthy.Adrian grabbed a handful of my hair.“Shut up and eat, your arrogant fool.”Adrian’s grip on my hair tightened, but I refused to let him see the pain in my eyes. My lips curled into a weak, bitter smile. “Take your poison and eat it yourself, Adrian. I would rather die of hunger than to swallow a crumb from this filthy prison o

    Alex's POV The next day“Please be safe. Don't return without Kelly. We don't know what Adrian is capable of. I hope to see you soon. Ivy is also excited.” Daniella smiled sorrowfully while ivy wiggled my arms as she played with her hair.“Don’t worry, Dani. I will bring Kelly back. We are going to the address Adrian sent to us. I won't return without Kelly. I would rather die than leave without her. You have my word” I said firmly, brushing my hand over Ivy’s tiny fingers.Ivy giggled, tugging at my shirt like she always did. I felt a pang in my heart. These moments were moments I would forever cherish. I forced a smile. Daniella’s eyes glistened with worry, but she nodded, trusting me.“I believe every word you say, Alex.”I leaned closer, kissing Ivy’s forehead gently while whispering softly.“Daddy will bring Mommy back, pumpkin. That's a promise, okay? So be good to me before mom comes back and takes you away from me.” I kissed her forehead again.She babbled in her baby voice l

    Alex's POV“Hello, pumpkin. How are you doing? Do you miss your mom?”. I asked ivy , scooping her into my arms She blinked up at me with those innocent eyes that reminded me so much of Kelly. Daniella had given her a warm bath and had made sure that she was comfy in her singlet and pink Kitty shorts.Her tiny fingers grabbed at my shirt as if holding onto it for comfort. Tears welled up in my eyes knowing that I had failed her as a father by not being able to protect her favourite person.“Don’t worry, sweetheart. Daddy is doing everything in his power to bring Mommy back home to you. Daddy won't stop until Mom cuddles you in her arms,” I whispered, kissing her foreheadIvy let out a small giggle totally oblivious of what I was saying but I knew deep down that she could feel her mother’s absence. She could feel Kelly's absences but couldn't express it in words.This was the fourth day since Kelly disappeared and life hasn't been easy for me. Taking care of Ivy would have been a huge
