The Devil's Bride CHAPTER 164
The words struck the room with surprising force and for several long seconds, no one spoke.It was as though Mr. Pietro had taken every scattered clue from the day's battle and slowly arranged them before everyone, allowing each man to see the picture that had been hidden in plain sight all along.Mr. Giovanni remained where he stood, his piercing eyes fixed upon the hall, but his mind had already begun retracing every step they had taken since arriving at the estate.The warning shots...The explosions at the gate...The appearance of the assassins...The mysterious voice that challenged him...The sudden withdrawal...The missing Azzura...One after another, every event connected itself like pieces of a carefully prepared puzzle.Around him, the Ndrangheta soldiers exchanged silent glances. The realization spreading through the room was impossible to ignore.Mr. Pietro took a slow breath before continuing. "Sir," he said calmly, "it is true the enemy caused the explosions."His eyes
The Devil's Bride CHAPTER 163
A single transmission crackled through the communications channel but important enough to immediately capture everyone's attention.The moment the words reached the command network, every nearby officer instinctively turned toward the radio operator.Mr. Pietro reacted immediately. "What have you found?" he asked into the communication device, his voice calm but carrying unmistakable urgency."Report."Without waiting for the reply, he began walking toward the temporary command station that had been established inside the estate. The team stationed there had already begun reconstructing the architectural layout of the entire property using digital scans, estate blueprints, and reports gathered by every search unit.One soldier hurried beside him carrying a compact military laptop, its screen filled with maps of the estate, marked search sectors, structural layouts, and newly identified hidden passages.Every few seconds, new information continued appearing as additional teams updated
The Devil's Bride CHAPTER 162
The thunderous roar of engines rolling into the estate created a brief distraction, momentarily breaking the suffocating silence that had settled inside the mansion.Outside, dozens of newly arrived vehicles spread across the vast compound with military precision. Soldiers poured out in disciplined formations, taking defensive positions while medics rushed toward the wounded. Radios crackled continuously as commanders coordinated security around every entrance and exit of the estate.Inside the mansion, however, the atmosphere remained heavy.Mr. Pietro knew this brief interruption was perhaps the only opportunity he would have to speak while Mr. Giovanni was still carefully weighing every possibility in his mind.Taking a cautious step forward, he cleared his throat softly."Sir..." His voice carried both respect and hesitation "I think... now that the reinforcements are here, we should search the entire estate once again before we reach any conclusions."He paused for only a moment
The Devil's Bride CHAPTER 161
"From the looks of things here..." Mr. Pietro slowly lowered his gaze as his eyes completed another careful sweep of the grand hall, his voice remained respectful, yet there was a noticeable hesitation behind every word."...I can't seem to find Azzura."The sentence ended quietly and yet the effect it produced inside the mansion was anything but quiet.Silence immediately swallowed the room, no one spoke nor did anyone shift their feet, even the soldiers who had continued searching instinctively stopped for a brief moment, as though the very mention of her name had frozen the atmosphere itself.Several men unconsciously swallowed as the sound echoed far louder than it should have in the overwhelming stillness.It was astonishing how a single sentence, spoken without raising one's voice, could carry so much weight, those few words changed everything.Everyone present understood what they truly meant, until that moment, the operation had centered on confirming the fate of Don Tommaso a
The Devil's Bride CHAPTER 160
While ignoring the heavy metallic scent that filled every corner of the mansion, Mr. Giovanni continued walking deeper into the residence.Years of hardship had hardened him.As the head of a powerful criminal organization, he had witnessed countless battlefields, betrayals, and tragedies. Death had become an unavoidable companion throughout his life. It was never something he welcomed, but it was something he had learned to face without allowing emotion to cloud his judgment.His pace remained steady, behind him, Mr. Pietro and the accompanying security detail advanced cautiously, their weapons raised as their eyes swept every corridor, doorway, and staircase. Every movement reflected discipline. Every step was taken with the expectation that danger could still be hiding somewhere inside the mansion.The grand entrance hall stretched before them in eerie silence as broken furniture lay scattered across the polished floor, fragments of shattered glass reflected the dim light filtering
The Devil's Bride CHAPTER 159
The surviving Ndrangheta soldiers remained exactly where they stood, their weapons still raised as they carefully watched every rooftop, every broken window, every dark corridor, and every corner where another ambush could be waiting.Mr. Giovanni still stood perfectly still.The gentle pat on his shoulder from Mr. Pietro had finally brought him back from the maze of thoughts threatening to consume him.He slowly inhaled and then exhaled as his sharp eyes lifted and swept across the estate before him."I need to know."His expression hardened."I need to be absolutely certain that everything has not been reduced to ashes before I allow emotion to decide my next move."His years of leadership reminded him that anger often destroyed what patience could still save. If there was even the smallest chance...the slightest possibility...That Tommaso or someone from his family remained alive, then every decision made from this moment onward had to be deliberate.He slowly turned toward his wa
The Devil's Bride CHAPTER 4
Giovanni’s voice was calm yet commanding as every of his words carried with it hidden meaning and messages that needs to be decoded.Mr Tommaso slowly placed his wine glass down too while listening carefully as he noticed the shift in Giovanni’s tone immediately.Something serious was coming and it
The Devil's Bride CHAPTER 77
“Sir yes sir” Dmitry said as he helped his man who got shot on the leg into the vehicle.The injured operative grimaced as he was carefully lifted inside while the blood loss had weakened him significantly.Yet he remained conscious and determined.The battle had been costly, every wounded soldier

Rejecting them is not merely dangerous, it is suicidal and no one thinks such idea is the best.“Well I guess you are right my love, Azzura truly is my only daughter and the best I can do is preserve our dignity rather than look like a fool to them….so yes I respect your decision my love” Mr. Tomma
The Devil's Bride CHAPTER 5
Tommaso raised an eyebrow slightly “but you see strangely enough…”A faint smile crossed Mr Giovanni’s face as he remembers the change on his son's face whenever he sees Azzura “he remembers your daughter”Tommaso blinked slowly.“Azzura?”“Yes Tom” Mr Giovanni replied as he turned fully towards Mr
