THE MAFIA DON HIRED ME AS HIS WIFE CHAPTER 22 Someone Knows
BANG! The sound echoed through the house. Elena froze. Adrian immediately stepped in front of her. Every trace of the gentle husband from a few seconds ago disappeared. His shoulders stiffened. His eyes became cold. The man Elena had once feared had returned. “Stay behind me,” Adrian whispered. Elena grabbed his arm. “Adrian, who is that?” “I don't know.” “You're lying.” He looked at her. “I said I don't know.” The voice from inside the house came again. “Congratulations, Don De Luca.” Adrian's jaw tightened. “I told you,” Elena whispered. “Someone knows about the baby.” Adrian looked at her sharply. “We don't know if there's a baby yet.” “But he knows about the pregnancy test.” “That means someone has been watching us.” Elena's face went pale. “Watching us?” Adrian nodded slowly. “Stay here.” “No.” “Elena.” “I'm coming with you.” “This isn't negotiable.” She stepped closer. “You promised me no more secrets.” Adrian stared at her. “This isn't about se
THE MAFIA DON HIRED ME AS HIS WIFE CHAPTER 21 A Life Without the Mafia
Three months had passed since Adrian De Luca walked away from the life that had once controlled him. For the first time in years, there were no armed guards standing outside the mansion. No secret meetings. No whispered threats. No men arriving in black cars in the middle of the night. No phone calls that made Adrian leave the dinner table without explanation. There was only peace. And strangely enough, Adrian was still learning how to live with it. Elena stood in the kitchen one quiet Saturday morning, wearing an oversized white shirt and a pair of comfortable shorts. Her long hair was tied messily behind her head. She was making breakfast. Or at least, she was trying to. “Adrian!” From the living room came a loud voice. “What?” Elena turned toward the doorway. “Come here!” Adrian appeared a few seconds later, wearing a simple gray shirt and dark pants. He looked completely different from the intimidating mafia don everyone had once feared. He leaned against the door
THE MAFIA DON HIRED ME AS HIS WIFE Chapter 20 — The Wife of the Mafia Don
ELENA One year ago, I walked into Adrian De Luca's mansion looking for a job. I was desperate. Broke. Terrified. I thought I was going there to become a personal assistant. Instead, I became his wife. A fake wife. At least, that was how it started. Now I stood in front of a mirror wearing a white wedding dress. Again. But this time, everything was different. There was no contract waiting on the table. No five-million-dollar payment. No threat. No lie. Only love. My father knocked on the door. "Ready?" I smiled. "Almost." He looked at me. "You look like your mother." Tears filled my eyes. "I wish she could see this." "She can." He kissed my forehead. "She's here in everything you've become." I smiled. Then the doors opened. Music began. I walked down the aisle. At the end stood Adrian. He wasn't wearing black. For the first time, he wore white. His eyes never left mine. When I reached him, he took my hands. "You came." I laughed. "I told you I wou
THE MAFIA DON HIRED ME AS HIS WIFE CHAPTER 19 — THE LAST WAR
The final confrontation happened at the docks. Adrian stood across from Luciano's remaining men. I watched from a safe distance with my father and the police. Luciano's right-hand man stepped forward. "You really think you can walk away?" Adrian remained calm. "Yes." "You don't walk away from this life." "I already have." "You are a De Luca." "I am." "Then act like one." Adrian shook his head. "My family spent generations building an empire based on fear." He lowered his weapon. "I'm ending it." The man laughed. "You're weak." Adrian looked at him. "No." He glanced toward me. "I'm choosing something more important." The man followed his gaze. "Your wife?" Adrian's expression immediately hardened. "Don't mention her." "So it's true." "What?" "She changed you." Adrian smiled slightly. "She didn't change me." He looked back at me. "She showed me who I wanted to become." The man raised his gun. "You'll regret this." "No." Adrian stepped forward. "I reg
THE MAFIA DON HIRED ME AS HIS WIFE CHAPTER 18- I DON'T WANT YOUR MONEY
I spent three days away from Adrian. Three days of pretending I was okay. I wasn't. My father found me sitting alone on the balcony. "You miss him." I sighed. "Is it that obvious?" "To a father? Yes." I smiled sadly. "He let me go." "Did he?" "He gave me five million dollars and divorce papers." My father frowned. "And you accepted?" "No." "Good." I looked at him. "You knew?" "I knew he was trying to protect you." "Why didn't you tell me?" "Because you needed to hear it from him." I looked down. "I thought he didn't love me anymore." My father shook his head. "Elena, that man nearly destroyed himself trying to find you when you were kidnapped." "I know." "He was terrified." "I know." "Then why are you here?" I wiped my tears. "Because he asked me to leave." My father smiled. "Sometimes people ask us to leave because they're afraid we'll stay." I looked at him. "What does that mean?" "Adrian believes his world is dan
THE MAFIA DON HIRED ME AS HIS WIFE CHAPTER 17 — FIVE MILLION DOLLARS
I stared at the check on the table. Five million dollars. The exact amount written in our original contract. I looked at Adrian. "What's this?" "Your payment." "I know what it is." He remained silent. "Why are you giving it to me now?" "Because our agreement is finished." I looked at the divorce papers beside it. My heart sank. "You signed these?" "Yes." "Without telling me?" "I didn't think you'd want to stay." I laughed bitterly. "You didn't think I'd want to stay?" "Elena..." "No. Explain it." He looked away. "I don't want you trapped." "Trapped?" "Because of the contract." "The contract ended a long time ago." "I know." "Then why are you doing this?" He took a breath. "Because I love you." I stared at him. "That doesn't make sense." "It does." "No, it doesn't. If you love me, why are you asking me to leave?" "Because loving you means putting your safety before my happiness." I shook my head. "That's not your decision to make." "Yes, it is." "No
