Author's Pov'

Not only was her beauty attracting him, but the main reason was he was feeling a pool of attraction towards her because of her innocence, which was crystal clear in her dark blue orbs.

"M-Mr Vincenzo, you can't hold my hand like this.I'm a doctor here and also there's a CCTV came--"

Before she could complete her sentence, he cut her off by saying.

"I don't care!"

He pulled her towards him, making her bump on his chest.A cold shiver ran through her spin when she saw his beautiful amber orbs from much closer now.He slowly leaned towards her lips, wanting to devour them, but she quickly shook her head to the other side and pushed him harshly.

"Excuse me Mr, this is a hospital and I'm a doctor here, not a slave or something, so behave yourself."

Elena ordered him, telling the Mafia how to behave. Not only the Mafia, but a soon-to-be Mafia King is something else.No one had the guts to say this until now.Which was attracting him more towards Elena.She turned towards the door, being flustered, and as she was about to leave he stopped her by saying.

"I know you're a doctor and I liked you as a doctor, but I'll like you more when you are beneath me, Elena."

Elena shivered, as it was the first time she had heard her name from him since he was admitted.Elena closed her eyes, being frustrated, while boiling in anger.She was frustrated, because this man made her feel things which had been buried a long time ago, and, angry with herself.She clenched her fist wanting to punch him so hard but unfortunately she can't since he was her patient with that she left from there not wanting deal with this man.

****

Next day! Elena went into her house which she had left a few years ago.She looked around to check if her father or brother was around.They were reasons for whom she had to leave her own house. Well, she never considered it as hers.Elena's mother remarried when her first husband died.Elena's mother, Dahlia.She never wanted to remarry, but as she was a single mother and it was getting hard for her to raise Elena all by herself. Neither she had any stable income nor could she get any job.One day, an old friend whom she knew from her college days.He confessed his love for her and proposed to her for marriage, as Dahlia was running out of money and raising a child all by herself was tough for her, so she accepted James's proposal and agreed to marry him as she thought he was kind and good hearted only if she knew.

Elena sighed with relief and went towards her bedroom.As she entered her mother's bedroom, she witnessed Dahlia lying on the bed with her weak body.Elena sat beside her and started to stroke her hair while Dahlia slowly opened her eyes as she knew who it was.She looked at her daughter with her loving eyes.

"My lovely daughter."

Dahlia placed her palm on Elena's cheeks while smiling weakly.

"Mom, why don't you listen to me?I clearly told you to take the medicine on time, didn't I?"

Elena scolded her mother.

"Oh my dear beautiful Ely, I'm already sick and weak enough.I'll die sooner or later.This medicine can't do much with it, we both know."

Dahlia said, which broke her daughter's heart.Dahlia had cancer.Elena tried everything she could to save her mother and was still doing it.She refused to accept because it was incurable.

"Please Mom, don't say it like that.I will cure you."

A tear made its way from her crystal blue eyes to her cheeks.Dahlia wiped her tears.

"My lovely Ely, tell me about you.Are you doing well?"

Elena held her mother's hand in hers and nodded her head while looking down.

"Oh come on, don't hide anything from me and tell me about your boyfriend."

Dahlia teased her daughter.

"Mom! I don't have a boyfriend and you knew that right."

Elena whined.

"Mom, I want to stay with you and want to take care of you and can't stop me from that."

Elena said, to which her mother rubbed her daughter's hands while shaking her head in denial.

"No Elena, No don't come back into this hell ever again.What you did a few years ago was the best decision ever now. Don't back off from it.Do you hear me?"

Dahlia said, not wanting to see Elena suffer.Dahlia couldn't do much but see her little daughter suffer, but not anymore.Elena grew up in this hell with only suffering. That was the reason why she decided to leave this house forever.She completed her graduation and got a scholarship for medical college. That was the year when she left her stepfather's house and had to do things on her own in order to grow independent and to free herself from all the torture and live a peaceful life on her own terms.She struggled a lot with lack of money.

She had no other choice but to do a part-time job side by side, but at last she made her dream come true with her hard work.

"Ely, you know your father and brother right.Once they get to know about your comeback they will try to destroy life and peace."

Dahlia said with worry that filled her eyes.Not only her stepfather, but her stepbrother too, they were both, devils.Dahlia was abused by her husband.When her stepbrother, Thomas, grew up, he too joined his father.Influenced by him, Thomas became a drug addict and turned, abusive.Not only Dahlia, but they used to beat Elena too and that was the reason Elena wanted end her sufferings and worked hard but she couldn't rescue her Mother from their violence.Elena wanted to admit her mother into the hospital where she was working but James refused thinking Dahlia will ran too and he will lose all the properties which Elena's grandfather had inherited to Dahlia.

"One day mom.I promise I will free you from this house too."

Elena said, to which her mother nodded her head weakly and smiled.

"Elena, you should leave now before its late."

Elena nodded her head.Dahlia kissed her forehead.As Elena went downstairs, fear was rising in her heart when she witnessed her father and brother as they were waiting for her arrival.Elena ignored them and was ready to leave, but her stepfather said something which made her stop.

"Where do you think you're going, Elena Martin?" Elena turned around and gave him a hard glare.How much she disliked this man had no limits.

"First of all, I'm not Elena Martin anymore. Anyway, I was never in the first place.I'm Elena Anderson and secondly, I'm here to treat my mom. Anything else?"

Elena said angrily. Usually she doesn't get angry so easily, but these two never fail to get on her last nerve.

"Oh my dear sister.Didn't you think of the consequences before coming here?hmm?"

He mocked her.

"And for you, don't you even think about doing anything to a self-independent woman like me who knows how to beat your ass up anytime by calling the cops and, if you want, just try me."

Elena said, being fierce.She was scared inside, but she believes that you should never show your weakness to your enemy, even at a certain point.

"Elena Martin!Mind your langu--"

"For your kind information, it's only Elena for you, Mr.James Martin."

James was giving her death glares, to which Elena shrugged it off and left Martin's Mansion, not wanting to waste any of her time on them.

****

Elena was driving to her apartment.Her mind was totally messed up remembering everything which happened a few minutes ago. A few cars came into her view in the middle of the road blocking her way.Elena stopped her car with full force and looked out of the window.

"fuck"

She cursed, panting heavily.Elena thought about why the hell there were so many cars parked in the middle of the road and blocking the goddamned road, but soon her eyes widened when she witnessed a familiar figure.She came out of the car to see what exactly was happening there. He looked at Elena and frowned his eyebrows a little.

"Woah!Doc.I didn't expect you to be here."

Elena looked towards him with her confused face.

"Neither me, Mr.Lorenzo.Can I ask you why the hell are you blocking my way?"

She asked.A small smirk appeared on his lips.

"Doctor, the first answer to my question, so tell me. Is your name Elena Martin?"

Lorenzo said and Elena's eyes widened in shock.She had never revealed her name to anyone because she never wanted to.

"Yes I'm."

His smirk only grew wider at her answer.In the next moment, Lorenzo pulled out his gun from his waistband and pointed at Elena, making her eyes widen with shock.

"What the hell are you doing?"

"You can't escape, Elena.Surrender yourself to us or else I have to kill you right here, right now, if you don't apply to it."

"W-what?"

Elena sultered, being scared.He scared the shit out of her with his gun stunt.

"Guards! Get her inside the car.Cabo now wants her!.She will be going to our doll house today!"

  • Taming Mr.Mafia King   Confrontation!

    "T-Thomas?"I murmured after taking a look into his appearance. I almost didn't recognize him. He looked like a total beggar. His body was dehydrated while he lost all his muscles like they never existed before. His hair was a mess. His clothes were half ripped and way too huge for him.But the important question was, how did he end up like this? Just how?"So now, you remember?"He scoffed."Because of you, Vincenzo killed my father. You are responsible for his death and for my situation."My eyes went to Ronald, who was watching everything silently. It was way too obvious that he knew what exactly was going on, but keeping his face neutral he stared forward nonchalantly."You know everything, isn't it Ronald?"I asked him straight while his eyes went to my face carefully before he spoke."About what?"He asked back like he didn't know what I was talking about."Don't play dumb with me. I know your boss is behind all of this.""Then perhaps you should be asking this boss, not me."I s

  • Taming Mr.Mafia King   Strange Behaviour!

    Elena's POV'My eyes remain stuck on the screen to check the medical records of my current patient. After checking all the details, I shut down the PC and stared out of the window, releasing a sigh.It's been a month since that night when Vincenzo, not even in my wildest dream, I thought he would ask for something called cuddles. It was still shocking that a dangerous man like him would ask for something like cuddles. It wasn't on my bingo card.After that night we hadn't been intimate with each other.....another shocking thing, right? I know and, given his sex drive, it was unbelievable at first, but later it got clear with time when every time I distanced myself using an excuse, so yeah, he never initiated sex first.I thought it was for good, but as time passed, I started to grow frustrated watching his strange behavior. Every time he came out of the shower only in a towel while the water droplets streamed down his toned body, looking hot as hell, and that man had the audacity to n

  • Taming Mr.Mafia King   She's Mine!

    Vincenzo's POV'The mansion was silent when I stepped inside.The marble floors gleamed beneath the dim chandelier light, but every sound I made—my shoes, the harsh drag of my breath—felt louder than it should have.I didn’t turn on the full lights. I didn’t need to. Darkness suited me better.The scent of gunpowder still clung faintly to my clothes, the night’s chaos trailing me like smoke. There were dark bloody stains along the cuff of my shirt, a mark on my jaw where something—had caught me, but I didn’t flinch. I'd long grown used to wearing the aftermath of my work.As I climbed the stairs, the weight of the world seemed to fall away with every step, leaving only one thought—the door at the end of the corridor.I pushed it open quietly.The faintest glow from the bedside lamp spilled over her form. Elena was there, curled slightly toward the window, the sheets tangled around her like silk waves. The steady rhythm of her breathing filled the room, soft and even, the only sound th

  • Taming Mr.Mafia King   Pain Wasn't Loud!

    Elena's POV'I walked out of the hospital with Sarah by my side as it was almost nighttime, so we were on our way back home. The hospital lights dimmed behind us as Sarah and I stepped out into the evening air. The city had begun to fold itself into night — headlights streaking by, the scent of rain lingering from earlier showers.I exhaled softly, feeling the ache of the long shift in my shoulders, but the older woman beside me walked as if the day had barely touched her. It's more like she's used to it but hats off to the woman.“Ah.”Sarah sighed, tilting her face up to the sky.“Nothing feels better than the air after a twelve-hour shift. Smells like freedom to me.”I chuckled.“Freedom and car exhaust.”Sarah laughed, a bright, musical sound that cut through the tiredness clinging to them.“Don’t ruin my poetry, dear. You’re too young to be this cynical.”We crossed the parking lot together, the elder woman linking her arm through mine without waiting for permission — she never d

  • Taming Mr.Mafia King   Villain!

    The warehouse sat deep in the forest — a place forgotten by time, where even the wind hesitated to whisper. Its walls were rusted ribs of corrugated metal, streaked with age and rain, bleeding orange under the dim light that flickered from a dying bulb.The air inside was thick, stale with the scent of oil, blood, and decay — a silence broken only by the occasional drip of water echoing against the concrete floor.In the middle of that gloom sat a man, tied to a chair that had done too many sins. The ropes bit into his wrists, cutting angry lines into his skin, and his head hung low, heavy with exhaustion.Dust danced in the pale shafts of moonlight that seeped through broken panels, brushing against his bruised face like a cruel caress. Somewhere in the distance, metal chains clinked — a sound that promised pain more than rescue.The warehouse was a graveyard of secrets, a place where screams went unheard and mercy came late, if at all. Every shadow seemed alive, watching, waiting. A

  • Taming Mr.Mafia King   Led Back To Him!

    Elena stood as Vincenzo's Lamborghini Egoista sped off the street, the echo of his words still settling in the air—an aftershock that made the pavement feel smaller under her feet.A cold wind came off the avenue, scouring the last warmness of the morning. It tangled in her hair and pried at the edges of her coat, but she did not wrap it tighter or hurry away. The gust lifted the loose strands across her face and dragged at the hem of her skirt; it smelled faintly of rain and car exhaust, sharp and honest. For once, the elements seemed to match the small, stubborn calm she felt inside—an exterior wind that couldn’t reach the quiet she’d carved for herself.Her jaw worked once, almost imperceptibly, as if testing whatever pride she had left. She watched his car become a dark sliver between buildings, then turned her gaze inward, away from the disappearing tail-lights. Only then did she notice them.They weren’t showy—no emblazoned suits or swaggering postures. They were professionals:
