The King of the Mafia Who Chose Me Chapter 14
I couldn't get a wink of sleep all night. The thought of my six o'clock meeting with Gabriel kept replaying in my mind, triggering one terrible suspicion after another. Being the contract wife of a Mafia Boss apparently required a level of mental endurance far beyond my capabilities.Honestly, I had briefly considered giving up. However, the moment I remembered how Gavin's family had discarded me like garbage and humiliated me without mercy, my determination reignited. I couldn't give up. I had to stay in this house and prove to them that escaping the Wilson family's clutches hadn't turned me into a homeless wreck.At exactly six in the morning, I made my way toward the backyard—the same area where I had been forced to handle a firearm two days earlier. However, my steps suddenly halted before I could even reach the open space.From behind the thick trunk of a pine tree, I spotted Gabriel standing tall and straight. In front of him, a man was kneeling with his hands cuffed behind his

Our visit to the kindergarten that morning felt more like a military inspection than a tour of a place where children were supposed to learn.Gabriel strode around the two-story building, his sharp gaze sweeping over every corner. He inspected the thickness of the window glass, examined the placement of the security cameras, and even interrogated the principal about the qualifications of the security guards at the entrance. Harrison, the head butler, followed closely behind, taking notes on every minor detail that might be considered a potential security weakness.Despite all that, I could see a faint sparkle in Luca’s eyes. For the first time, the innocent little boy gazed at the colorful classrooms with genuine curiosity rather than fear.However, throughout the drive back to the mansion, Gabriel fell silent once again. He stared straight out the car window, his expression unreadable, giving away absolutely nothing about his decision.I sincerely hoped Gabriel would allow Luca to at

The tattooed man got into the pool first, then looked at me with a serious expression.“Get in,” he ordered curtly.I swallowed nervously and hesitantly made my way down the pool steps. The cold water stung my skin as it rose to my waist, causing my muscles to tense up instantly.“I... I’ve never learned the basic techniques, Sir,” I stammered softly, gripping the pool railing tightly.Gabriel gave a faint scoff and moved closer through the water until he was standing directly in front of me. We were so close that I could feel the warmth radiating from his body despite the chill of the water.“In my world, fear is the first thing that will kill you before a bullet does,” Gabriel said in a low voice, his tone laced with intimidation. Yet, somehow, it was strangely reassuring at the same time. “Let go of the railing.”“But—”“Let go, Cyara.”I let out a resigned breath and obeyed, releasing my grip on the pool railing. My body immediately felt unsteady, but before I could panic, a pair

Cyara's POVEvery now and then, my fingers brushed against my lips as I changed out of my wet pajamas. Whenever the image of Gabriel giving me mouth-to-mouth resuscitation at the edge of the pool earlier crossed my mind, my heart seemed to leap and beat erratically."In my entire life... this is the first time I've ever been kissed by a Mafia Boss," I whispered to my reflection in the mirror as I put on a cotton shirt and a knee-length skirt.I let out a soft sigh, a faint, unexpected smile forming on my lips. "Being married to a mafia boss isn't so bad after all."After fixing my appearance, I changed Luca into dry clothes since his outfit had gotten wet when he hugged me earlier. Then I took him to the lounge and patiently fed him lunch.When my eyes accidentally drifted toward the view beyond the enormous glass window, I spotted Gabriel striding hurriedly toward his car, his expression frozen with anger. He got into his all-black vehicle, and within seconds, the luxurious car sped
The King of the Mafia Who Chose Me Chapter 10: Numb Lips and Clenched Fists
Gabriel's POVI thought that woman knew how to swim. Turns out, she was an idiot.Fortunately, my reflexes were quick enough, and I immediately jumped in to save her. It seemed her lungs had filled with water, forcing me to perform CPR at the edge of the pool. The moment I sensed her consciousness gradually returning and felt her breath hitch weakly, I immediately got to my feet.My fingers brushed against my own lips, which suddenly felt slightly numb. A strange tingling sensation lingered there.My vision still hadn't fully steadied when my gaze accidentally fell on Cyara's chest. Her soaked pajamas clung tightly to her body, revealing her curves far too clearly. I quickly looked away, suppressing a growl in my throat.Cyara coughed repeatedly, struggling to sit up, her face deathly pale. A second later, a crying voice shattered the silence.Luca ran over and wrapped his little arms tightly around Cyara's neck. His clothes were soaked too from the water dripping off her body. I stoo

I jolted awake at the faint sound of footsteps brushing against the thick carpet in my bedroom. I turned awkwardly, struggling to gather my senses as I found Gabriel standing rigidly not far from my bed."Mr. Gabriel..." My voice was hoarse with sleep."Sorry to disturb you, Cyara," Gabriel said briefly. He stopped beside my king-sized bed. "I just want to move Luca to his room.""There's no need to move him, Mr. Gabriel," I replied quickly, trying to sit up. "Let Luca sleep with me tonight. I really don't mind."Gabriel looked at me for a moment before shifting his gaze to the little boy sleeping soundly beside me. "You need to get enough rest so you can take proper care of Luca tomorrow."Without waiting for my agreement, Gabriel bent down. His strong arms easily scooped up Luca's small body as though he weighed nothing.I had no choice but to let him. I watched as the man carried Luca toward the door. However, just before his figure disappeared completely, the question that had bee
