ELENA

The text from Alessandro had disorientated my thoughts. I contemplated if I should answer it or just ignore it. I knew ignoring him was playing with fire but I did anyway.

I was suddenly in the mood for a drink, so I got dressed in a casual gown. Nothing too much for a late night drink.

I got to the bar, found a seclusive spot and sat down. My drink came seconds later and I sipped while looking around the bar.

I had intentionally left my phone, I didn’t know what I was going to do if he had texted me again.

“Is this seat taken?” A voice said behind me.

I inwardly sighed. I just wanted to be on my own.

I turned towards him, a smile plastered on my face.

“Alex!” I stared at him, shocked to see him here. How is he here?

“Hi, Elena. You can imagine my surprise, seeing you here, all alone.”

“If I didn’t know better, I would say you’re stalking me,” I chuckled, but it wasn’t funny. There’s only so many ‘coincidences’ one can believe.

“You beat me to it,” he said, half smiling. “ I w

  • THE MAFIA’s BROKEN BRIDE   CHAPTER 55–LONELINESS

    ELENAI thanked the stars when Luisa pulled me out of my parents’ scrutiny.I wasn’t ready to listen to Mamma make comments about my body.I snatched another glass of wine from the server, having emptied the last one.Luisa and Alessia eyed me suspiciously, making sure I wasn’t getting myself drunk. I was still sober—for now.We were at the corner where a makeshift bar had been created, chatting about high society.“And that woman over there,” Alessia nodded to a woman.I stylishly tipped my head to have a look. The woman in question was dressed in a tight red dress. She should be in her forties but could pass off as thirty.“What about her?” Luisa and I said in unison as we dragged our eyes from her, where she was pressed against an older man, who I presumed was her husband.Only explains why they’re sandwiched together and looking like they might need a room.“That’s her fourth husband,” she whispered close enough that no one else could hear.My eyes widened. “What?”She nodded slow

  • THE MAFIA’s BROKEN BRIDE   CHAPTER 54–LINES CROSSED

    ALESSANDRO I winked at Elena as I extended my hand for her to take.She rolled her eyes subtly, in a way the crowd cheering for us and the paparazzi snapping countless photos wouldn’t notice.She hesitated for a moment before placing her slender hand in mine. I clasped our hands together and pulled her out of the car.“Mr. and Mrs. DeLuca, over here!” cameras flashed at us as the shots began.After a minute, I was done with it. I looked at Elena to see if she was ready to go in. She nodded, and we went inside.The paparazzi weren’t allowed into the party, which was for the best. If someone were to follow me around taking shots all night, I’m quite sure they’d witness me blowing up or doing some shit I wouldn’t want ending up in the media.The party was in full swing when we got in. Elena quietly removed her hand from my elbow, where it had been tucked in.“Glad you made it,” Mr. Moretti said, scanning us up and down.His eyes swerved to his daughter, though I wasn’t sure why he looke

  • THE MAFIA’s BROKEN BRIDE   CHAPTER 53–SHOW TIME

    ELENAI let out an exasperated breath and stared at Alessia through my phone.Tonight was the party Papà had planned, and all the clothes I had picked didn’t seem to fit in. There was always something wrong with them,either I didn’t like the way I looked in them, or they weren’t exactly what I was going for.At this point, I was done and ready to call it a night. But knowing who Papà is, he would come here and drag me out. God forbid his daughter doesn’t attend the party he threw.“I’ve told you, all these are amazing,” Alessia said, equally frustrated by my indecisiveness.We’d been at this for close to an hour, and I knew I should free her.“You know you don’t have to do this with me,” I said, picking up the phone. Her face covered my whole screen.Behind her, I could see the dress she had picked out. She had bought it in Paris.“I know,” she mumbled, “but I still want to be here. You need to be sure Papà doesn’t chase you back home to change,” she joked, but I knew she was serious.

  • THE MAFIA’s BROKEN BRIDE   CHAPTER 52–BARGAIN

    ELENAI tried not to focus on Alessandro carrying his child, but it was hard. I should listen to him, but my head was wrapped in that instant he extended his hands for her.It was out of impulse, I know, but he could have stopped himself.But he didn’t.Aurora was smiling now at him, her hands playing with his hair as he talked.How can I concentrate when he looks so good carrying her?I had watched him and Papà by my bedroom window. I knew he was pissing Papà off by the many stares Papà gave him.When I saw Papà leave, I immediately texted Alessia to tell her it was done.Tell Alessandro I owe him one, she replied back.I rolled my eyes at the text. She owes him one, but I owe him three.Right then, Aurora, who has given me enough free time, began to cry. I breastfed her, changed her out of her clothes, and took her out with me.I would have left her with Rosa, but I didn’t. I wanted Alessandro to see his daughter, in case he has forgotten.I guess that worked, because I am rewarded

  • THE MAFIA’s BROKEN BRIDE   CHAPTER 51–CHECKMATE

    ALESSANDRO I was going to give Lorenzo so much shit when he returned. He was out on Vacation that was the reason he didn’t want to have a drink with me.Right now, I just needed to figure out how to keep Mr. Moretti out.Lorenzo didn’t even try hiding his forbidden relationship with Alessia. I had caught him several times smiling at a text he received. I decided I wouldn’t bring it up to him or at least tell him how dangerous what he was doing was.Partly because who he loves is none of my business as long as she treats him right. He’s been through a lot, and the last thing he needs is someone adding to it.I wasn’t sure Alessia was the one. Sure, I married the sister, which is the main reason I was skeptical. But seeing how she reacted the day Lorenzo was shot, all my doubts were cleared. And also because Mr. Moretti doesn’t have the right to tell his daughters who to love regardless of whether he’s their father.I’m all for forbidden love… until it gets busted. But we’ll get there

  • THE MAFIA’s BROKEN BRIDE   CHAPTER 50–THE DEAL

    ELENAI was going to kill Alessia for putting me in this position.Alessia and I had been texting back and forth. They had successfully landed in France, and she’d been showing me the different places they had visited. It was like I was there with them.I was happy living through her until she dropped a message that spoiled my mood.Aurora was sleeping beside me, she’d been sleeping a lot today, which had given me a lot of time to text with Alessia.Alessia: “Papà said he’s coming.”I read the text again, wishing it said something different.Me: Coming to where? I replied.Alessia: To your place. I told him you were struggling a bit and that’s why you needed me to stay with you for a week. He said you have staff that can help you. I told him you demanded it had to be me.Perfect.Me: Now what do you expect me to do? I shot back.Alessia: You have to stop him, Lena. If he comes there and doesn’t see me, we’ll be in so much trouble. If he finds out about Lorenzo and me, he’s going to ki
