Diana's POV

My eyes remained locked on the dark blood stain soaking Mr. Marino’s suit jacket. I opened my mouth, the words trembling past my lips: "Is that bl—"

"Don't ask," he cut me off flatly, his voice stern, cold, and entirely unyielding.

His stiff reaction got on my nerves. I couldn't tell if the blood belonged to him or to someone else.

I quickly scanned his hands, his neck, and his shoulders, searching for a tear in the fabric or a hidden wound so I could call for help.

  • Taming The Mafia Princess    The Missing Kids

    Diana's POV The air in the flower shop suddenly felt suffocating. Vlad’s small fingers were digging into the fabric of my sleeve, his knuckles turned white, his young face was drained of every color.My heart beat violently against my ribs. I dropped down onto my knees right in front of him, gripping his arms to keep him steady."Vlad, look at me," I commanded, my voice dropping into a low, serious murmur. "Elaborate. What do you mean they’ve been watching our house? Who are these men?"Vlad swallowed nervously, his sharp green eyes moving toward the glass display window as if expecting those shadows to pass right through the glass…"They... they look scary, Diana," Vlad whispered, his voice filled with terror. "They're mostly tall, bald guys covered in so many dark tattoos—on their necks, their hands, everywhere. And they always wear these dark shades even when it's cloudy outside. They just stand near the corner alley by our old building, staring directly at our front door."A cold

  • Taming The Mafia Princess    Trouble In Paradise

    Diana's POV The sun was just beginning to dip lower into the afternoon sky, casting a warm, golden glow across the lush green lawns of the public park. The driver pulled the pink Lamborghini up to the parking lot near the main entrance, and the moment the doors unlocked, Lucia practically bounced out of her seat."Ice cream time!" she sang, her small voice ringing out with pure, unfiltered joy.I stepped out behind her, taking her small hand in mine as we strolled down the paved walkway toward a brightly painted ice cream cart stationed under a giant oak tree. The old ice cream man smiled warmly down at us through his thick reading glasses while adjusting his white paper hat."Welcome beautiful ladies! What can I get for you today?" he asked cheerfully.I crouched down to Lucia's level, gesturing toward the long glass display filled with colorful tubs of frozen treats. "Alright, little lady, pick whichever flavor you want."Lucia pressed her small hands against the glass, her dark e

  • Taming The Mafia Princess    The Best Nanny

    Diana's POV Isabella’s eyes were filled with terrified tears as she shrank into the leather chair, shaking so hard her shoulders were trembling. The heavy weight of the Marino name had settled over the room like a thick fog, choking out every bit of her mother’s previous bravery.I straightened up slowly, smoothing down the front of my blazer, and let a cold but composed smile fix itself onto my face."And just so we are entirely clear," I said, my voice cutting through the silent room, "I am Diana—Lady Lucia’s nanny. Her mother is currently away on a high-profile business trip in London. And she is ten times more gorgeous and a thousand times richer than your garbage mother could ever dream of being."I leaned in one last time, my eyes locking onto Isabella's tear-stained face. "If you ever let her name slip out of your mouth again, there won't just be a slap waiting for you."I laughed like a maniac internally, my heart beating loudly in my chest. God, forgive me for the bluff. I o

  • Taming The Mafia Princess    Pretending To Be Mommy

    Diana's POV My red heels clicked violently against the polished floorboards as Lisa and I stormed down the hallway toward the administration wing. My chest kept rising and falling, my heart was pounding hard against my ribs.When we finally reached the heavy mahogany door with the golden plaque reading HEADMISTRESS GRISELDA, I didn't even bother knocking. I pushed the door open and stepped inside, ready to defend my little lady against the world.But the sight that greeted me was really absurd…Lucia was curled up casually in a massive black leather armchair opposite the headmistress's desk, looking completely unbothered, tapping away on her shiny new pink iPad. She looked like a tiny, pampered queen resting in her palace. On the opposite chair sat another little girl with a bright red mark across her cheek, sniffling loudly while surrounded by two adults, maybe her parents or so and they looked like they were on the verge of a nervous breakdown…."What is going on here?" I demanded

  • Taming The Mafia Princess    Where is Lucia?

    Diana's POV My jaw was practically resting on the table. The silence between us was heavy and suffocating, until Sofia's voice snapped me back to reality…“Why are you looking at me like that, Diana?”I blinked rapidly, letting out a sharp, awkward laugh that sounded fake, even to my own ears. "Sorry! I... I just..."Sofia narrowed her eyes, leaning across the table and inspecting my face like a police officer. "You're acting really suspicious, Diana. Matteo made the exact same face when I told him her name!"I swallowed hard. I couldn't keep this from her anymore—not when she was walking straight into the lion's den with her eyes blindfolded…."Sofia," I began softly, taking a deep breath to steady my heartbeat. "Lia Costa... is Mr. Marino's girlfriend."For three solid seconds, Sofia didn't move. Then, her eyes went wide, her jaw dropped, and she let out a dramatic, high-pitched scream that made half of the people in the cafe turn to look at us."Are you fucking kidding me?!" Sofia

  • Taming The Mafia Princess    Girls and Gossip

    Diana's POV The pressure was officially about to swallow us whole. Final exams were creeping closer by the second, marking the end of our fourth year in university. As a cybersecurity student, my nights were spent coding, on network protocols, and also taking care of the little troublesome lady, while my best friend, Sofia, was practically drowning in heaps of fabric and fashion sketches.Today, we had agreed to meet at our little sanctuary ... .Caffè Fiore, a cozy little spot nestled in the heart of Milan to combine forces, drink huge amounts of caffeine, and study until our brains melted.Lisa drove me to the cafe in the sleek black Porsche. Over the past few weeks, I had surprisingly become accustomed to her presence. Sure, we still had our fair share of petty arguments—usually about her annoying security protocols or her habit of staring at everyone like they were an undercover assassin. Ugh!. She was so annoying but a weird, mutual respect was blooming between us. We were act
