The room smelled faintly of antiseptic and old tea leaves.

It was small—too small for the storm inside Lidia’s chest—but it was safe. For now.

She sat on the edge of the narrow bed, her hands folded over her knees, fingers trembling despite her effort to keep them still. The borrowed dress hung loose on her frame, hiding bruises that still bloomed beneath the fabric like dark flowers. Her hair was tucked under a scarf, but she could still feel its weight, still feel Lorenzo’s hands in it when h

  • The King’s Broken Oath   Lines That Could Never Be Crossed “You slut!” Scarlet’s

    Scarlet’s shrill voice ripped through the restaurant, silencing every conversation.Forks froze halfway to mouths.Waiters stopped in their tracks.Even the soft music drifting through the restaurant seemed to disappear beneath the weight of her accusation.“You really think you can steal Bruno away from me?” Scarlet shouted, her perfectly manicured finger stabbing toward Lidia. “Using that bastard child of yours to trap him?”The moment Tony was mentioned…Something inside Lidia snapped.The fear that had once lived in her eyes disappeared.She stepped forward.Smack!The sound echoed sharply across the restaurant.Scarlet’s head whipped to the side, strands of her perfectly styled hair falling across her face.A bright red handprint bloomed on her cheek.The entire restaurant gasped.No one had expected the quiet woman standing beside Bruno Deluca to strike the Mancini heiress.Lidia lowered her hand slowly.Her voice remained frighteningly calm.“You may insult me.”Her eyes harden

  • The King’s Broken Oath   A Voice from the Past

    The following morning arrived with a gentle breeze sweeping through the Deluca mansion.For the first time in years, laughter drifted through the breakfast hall instead of silence.Tony sat proudly in his highchair, banging his tiny spoon against the table while Flaviana tried unsuccessfully to stop him.“My little prince,” she laughed, “the table has done nothing to you.”Tony only giggled louder.Across from him, Lidia couldn’t help smiling.Bruno sat quietly beside her, stealing occasional glances in her direction while pretending to drink his coffee. Every now and then, Tony would point excitedly toward one of them, making the atmosphere feel strangely… normal.It almost felt like a family.After breakfast, Bruno stood and adjusted the sleeves of his dark shirt.“Shall we?”Lidia looked at him for a moment before nodding.Tony immediately stretched both hands toward Bruno.“Daddy!”Bruno’s face softened as he lifted the little boy into his arms.Lidia noticed the smile that spread

  • The King’s Broken Oath   A Family Day and a Dangerous Plan

    The black convoy rolled through the city like royalty.Luxury SUVs surrounded Bruno’s car from every direction while bodyguards remained alert through their communication devices.Their first stop…The largest toy store in the city.The moment Tony stepped inside…His tiny eyes widened.Rows upon rows of colorful toys stretched endlessly before him.Cars.Robots.Building blocks.Stuffed animals.Helicopters.Mini motorcycles.Toy kitchens.Everything a child could dream of.Tony gasped loudly.“Wooow!”Bruno smiled.“Everything he touches.”Romano blinked.“…Boss?”“I said buy everything he touches.”Within minutes…Chaos erupted.Tony pointed toward a dinosaur.“That.”Romano nodded.Purchased.“A car!”Purchased.“A bear!”Purchased.“A train!”Purchased.Soon the bodyguards were carrying mountains of shopping bags while confused customers watched the terrifying Mafia King happily following a toddler around the store.One elderly woman whispered,“Is that really Bruno Deluca?”“I t

  • The King’s Broken Oath   Shadows Behind the Smile

    The black Rolls-Royce slipped quietly through the towering iron gates of the Deluca estate.Warm lights illuminated the winding driveway, reflecting against the polished marble fountains that lined the entrance. The mansion stood proudly beneath the moonlight, its towering pillars and grand balconies giving it the appearance of a royal palace rather than the home of the most feared family in the underworld.Inside the car, Tony had already fallen asleep.His tiny head rested against Lidia’s shoulder while one little hand remained wrapped around her finger.Lidia smiled faintly.Children truly healed without knowing it.Bruno glanced at them before looking back through the windshield.“We’re home.”The words escaped him naturally.The moment he realized what he had said, he became quiet.Home…It had been years since that word carried warmth.Tonight…It almost did.The car came to a smooth stop before the mansion.Before the chauffeur could move, Bruno stepped out first.He walked aro

  • The King’s Broken Oath   The Oath Begins to Break

    The night air carried the scent of roses as Bruno and Lidia stepped out of the private dining pavilion.The ocean breeze swept gently across the gardens, lifting a few loose strands of Lidia’s hair. Behind them, the violinist continued playing, the melody fading into the distance as they walked toward the waiting Rolls-Royce.Neither of them spoke.The dinner had ended peacefully—far more peacefully than either of them had expected.A valet hurried forward to open the rear door.Bruno waited until Lidia climbed inside before taking the seat beside her.The car eased away from the restaurant, disappearing into the quiet streets illuminated by rows of golden streetlights.For several minutes, only the low hum of the engine filled the silence.Lidia rested her forehead lightly against the cool window.Outside, the city had already begun to sleep.Most shops were closed.Traffic had thinned.Only a few late-night cafés still glowed beneath the stars.But her mind wasn’t on the city.It wa

  • The King’s Broken Oath   Beneath the City Lights

    The evening sky shimmered with thousands of stars as Bruno’s black armored Rolls-Royce glided silently through the city’s glittering streets.Inside the luxurious car, silence settled between them.Not the uncomfortable silence that had once existed whenever Lidia was around Bruno.This one was… uncertain.Gentle.Every now and then, Bruno stole a glance at the woman seated beside him.The lavender dress fit her perfectly, making her look elegant without trying too hard. She sat with both hands folded neatly on her lap, staring through the tinted window at the rushing lights outside, pretending not to notice his gaze.Bruno smiled faintly before looking away.He didn’t want to scare her.Not tonight.Tonight wasn’t about redemption.It was about creating one peaceful memory.One memory untouched by pain.…Twenty minutes later, the Rolls-Royce rolled through a pair of grand iron gates.The restaurant was unlike anything Lidia had ever seen.It wasn’t in the city.It overlooked the oce

  • The King’s Broken Oath   Buried Truths and Silent Promises

    The garden was alive with movement.The sharp sound of shoes striking stone.The crack of fists against padded shields.The low, firm instructions of the trainer cutting through the cool morning air.Lidia moved like someone trying to outrun her own thoughts.Every strike.Every turn.Every breath—

  • The King’s Broken Oath   She Chose to Return to the Devil

    The room had gone quiet again.Not the heavy, suffocating silence from before—but something steadier.Something controlled.Lidia sat by the edge of the bed, her fingers resting lightly against Tony’s blanket. The traces of tears had dried on her cheeks, leaving behind faint lines that caught the

    Every time they stopped her, it felt like chains being placed on her wrists.Erika noticed the shift in her expression.“Hey,” she said softly.Lidia looked up quickly, forcing the smile back.“I’m fine.”Erika crossed her arms, unconvinced.“You’re thinking again.”Lidia sighed.“It’s just…”Her h

    A new day rose over the city with a pale, uncertain light.Morning did not bring peace. It only revealed how tense everything had become.The restaurant stood at the edge of the old district, half-hidden between abandoned shops and shuttered warehouses. Once, it had been a place of laughter and mus
