The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 42~ A Dirty Haunt
LILYFor a thousand reason, I wanted to hate him so much, but my hidden love for him wouldn’t let me. Staring at his face alone was just enough for me not to do otherwise. Most times, he gave me reasons to fear him. Some other times, I just found myself loving every bit of him the more.Don’t blame me, I can’t help it either.I went to meet Dominic at the underground station where almost all the dirty task are being carried out. He was instructing a few men on what to do. As soon as his gaze met mine, he dismissed them.Mateo said you have something for me.” I said, already hating why I was doing this in the first place.“It’s more like a business deal,” he answered. “We’re to meet him.” He showed me a photo.“Who is he?” I asked, clearly having no idea who it was.“He is requested by Renzetti for having scammed him of a treasure worth ten million.”“So, what’s the job?” I asked.“Mateo wants me to act as a fake buyer, but I think it’s better if you play the role instead.”“Wait a sec

LILYI adjusted the ear pod in my ear which Dominic had given me as a way to communicate with him. Then, I took a deep breath before offering a knock on the wooden door before me.“Who’s that?” Said a wary voice from the inside.“It’s me,” I answered. “I’m here to purchase an artifact.”The man stared at me from the middle hole on the door, before pushing the door open. I clutched my suitcase before me, where the fake dollar note was stored.“Come in,” he permitted.“Thank you.”“It’s been long since a female buyer knocked on my door.” He said, while he put much effort into getting his legs moving. From what Dominic had told me, I was expecting someone younger, about late thirties or so.“My son isn’t back yet, he should have been the one talking business with you.” He said, walking towards a sink. “Mind for something?”I shook my head, “No, thanks. I’m just here to purchase the artifact and I’m gone.”He nodded and poured himself a glass of water instead. “What type of artifact is it

LILYWe returned back home.Meanwhile, the suspect had been dragged to Mateo’s office before us.The other men and servants welcomed us like we had been in a battle for a year. I’ll admit, I really loved the praise, it made me want to do more. I never knew this was how exciting it was to go on a human haunt.As we stepped into Mateo’s office, he was already standing before the man who was already shivering. “I’m pretty sure you know him as much as I do, and we both know who foolishly you scammed him, thinking he won’t find out.”The man shook his head, now he was crying like a child. “I only sold it at the original price.”“Original price?” Mateo scoffed. “Do you think we’re stupid to seize a man without a proper investigation? It’s worth ten million, but out of your greed, you decided to sell it double.”“I wasn’t being greedy, sir. The shipping fee and other expenses warranted the increase in price. My only gain was a million dollars.” Why do I feel like he was telling the truth?Bu

LILY“Are you sure?” He asked curiously.“They’ve been taking every direction I took, and they won’t stop following me.” I said, sounding more terrified than I thought I was.“Okay. Check for a signboard or anything and tell me if you can get an idea of where you are.” He demanded.My eyes were staring at both sides of the road. Even if I saw a signboard, before I could get a glimpse of the writing, I had driven past it. “Shit!”I kept looking for more signs, and I was lucky to see one. “Sparrow Dynasty. I think it’s a shopping mall or something.”“Sparrow Dynasty.” He repeated. “I’m on my way. Just keep heading towards the bridge, I’ll be there in a minute.”I kept driving slowly not to let those stalkers know I had noticed them. I was ten minutes away from the bridge, and I don’t know how long it was going to take Dominic to show up.Suddenly, the black car overtook me, speeding to my front. I matched the break paddle, stopping abruptly. Before I could revise, the men had already st

CLARAI went to the chapel as usual, trying to keep to the act of being a true Christian person. Initially, my reason was to check on Lucaa, we haven’t spoken for days now. If not mistaken, we last spoke the day she slapped Dominic.After our brief conversation which didn’t last long as usual, I headed back to the mansion. By the time I got there, Lily was seated in the living room, but not alone. Her wounds were treated by a doctor whom I guess was called by Mateo.Lily on her own wouldn’t dare involve a doctor like she refused to have one on the night of the attack. Mateo was the least I noticed because he had his eyes and attention on something else.He would only pay attention to Lily when she screamed or groaned too loudly. He didn’t say anything, though he looked like he wanted to.Lily’s breath was so rough that it looked like she had run a million-meter race. Her face was already stained red, and I could tell from the reddish colour of her eyes that it hurt so badly, and how m

CLARAWhy do I feel like there was more reason to why he had rushed his way into the bathroom? The long pause, and the way he was staring at me spoke so much I couldn’t explain. It felt like it was just our first time meeting, and he was trying every means to access me.I felt my cheeks hot as I smiled at the thought.However, Mateo left in a hurry, and he didn’t say anything else after our conversation. I went to check on Lily who was still asleep, then I had to pay a visit to the green garden. When everything began to bore me, I returned back to the room.For some reason, life here was silently becoming boring to me. It’s always the same routine all the time. Wake up, go to the chapel, phone Lucaa, have breakfast, do anything outside sleeping.Even though life outside was a bit... painful, at least there was more fun to it than being here. The only thing I get to enjoy is the rich dishes Christopher makes, which is something I’ll never regret. Ever!Lily and I weren’t the best girly

CLARAIt started with a long, awkward silence that almost ripped off my heart. I had no idea how this would go, but I was physically and mentally ready for whatever question she’d throw at me.Then, she started, breaking the long silence. “How have things been with you and my son?” My heart skipped a bit. Even though I expected that question, I never thought it’d come this sooner.“Well, like I said earlier, all has been well between us.” I tried my best to sound real so she wouldn’t have to think I was lying.She nodded, “Has he mentioned marriage yet? Or are you two still in the fantasy of engagement?”I stared at her for the briefest moment, mentally thinking on how to shape the words. “Honestly, Mateo and I haven’t discussed anything related to that for the meantime.”She frowned. “What?” She questioned. “Why the sudden delay?”“Mateo has been handling a lot lately, and he rarely had time for himself, not to talk about anyone else.”“Even at that, you’re his wife-to-be, he should

CLARAI was shocked. Don’t blame me, I didn’t see that coming.I had initially wanted to check on her and leave. But as soon as I saw her, and how pale she looked, I felt she needed my attention. What I didn’t expect was feeling her in my arms. Believe me, I still haven’t gotten over that yet.A part of me wanted to believe this was a new beginning for the both of us, the other part of me kept reminding me she had only done what she did because of her condition. All the same, it felt surreal.I could see the embarrassment on her face as soon as her stomach grumbled. I did want to laugh, but I held myself not to let her feel more embarrassed than she already was.“We need to get you something to eat. You don’t have to pretend like everything is alright.” I said, standing to my feet. “I’ll talk to Chris while you wait here.”I turned to leave but she grabbed my hand, stopping me on my track. “Wait. I’ll come with you.”That even surprised me the most. I had to pinch myself to be sure th

MATEOThe knock came just as I was pouring over the morning reports. I already knew who it was.“Come in,” I called out without looking up.Bruno entered, looking calm but purposeful, shutting the door behind him. His expression told me everything I needed to know before he even said a word.“We’ve got a problem,” he said.I gestured to the seat across from my desk. “Is it the northside shipment?” I asked.He nodded as he sat. “We got ambushed.”My jaw tightened. “Were there any casualties?”“None. Drivers are okay. Some minor injuries. Cargo’s mostly intact. We recovered eighty percent. The rest was either damaged or taken before we got there,” Bruno explained.I leaned back slowly. “Eighty percent isn’t bad. But that’s not what’s bothering you so you might as well spit it out because I'm kind of thinking the same thing too,” I told him.He gave a grim smile before he said, “You’re right. The route was changed less than two hours before the trucks rolled out. Only a handful of people
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 130~ I've Missed You.
DOMINICI’ve faced death more times than I can count.I’ve taken punches, bullets, and more hits to the head than any sane man should have survived, but nothing has ever made my hands shake quite like walking up to Lucaa’s door.I stood there for a full minute, fists clenched at my sides like that might stop the internal war I was fighting. My heart was a damned traitor, beating too loud for my liking. Mateo’s words rang in my ears like a challenge I didn’t want to accept but knew I needed to.“People change all the time… unless you don’t really like her the way Clara seems to think you do.”Honestly, fuck him for ever insinuating that my feelings for Lucaa were superficial when they were anything but that. Now I wanted to prove him wrong more than anything, but I would be lying if I said this was solely for Mateo’s benefit.The truth was, I’d never stopped liking her. Hell, liking wasn’t even the word. I loved Lucaa. Still did. The kind of love that crept under your skin, embedded it
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 129~ The Feeling is Raw.
MATEO“You’ve been smiling a lot lately. Care to tell me what’s got you so happy because last I checked, Renzetti was still alive and well,” Dominic said.We had just finished a meeting, and instead of getting out of my office, he was prying into my personal life, which was on brand for him.“I don’t remember it being any of your business, and last I checked, the fact that Renzetti is still alive doesn’t mean I had to be miserable about it,” I replied.“No, it doesn’t but I’ve known you for years, and you’ve smiled more in the last few days than I’ve ever seen you do. Which tells me that something has changed, and I think I have an idea as to what it is,” Dominic added.“Yeah? Why don’t you tell me since you now seem to be aware of everything going on in my life?” I demanded.“Being your usual self isn’t going to make me switch the subject, Mateo. I’m your friend first, and I’m glad you finally took my advice and told Clara how you feel,” he said, and I stared at him in surprise.“How
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 128~ Your Feelings With Dominic.
CLARA“You better not be messing with me,” Lucaa warned.“I promise I’m not,” I responded.We were at our favorite bistro and had placed an order for some burgers and fries. Since we were waiting for our food, I told her about what had been going on between Mateo and me.“Swear that you’re telling the truth,” she demanded.“Come on, Lucaa. You’ve known me for most of my life. Do you think I would lie to you about something like this?”She thought about it for a moment before she said, “No, you won’t.”Then, her face transformed into a bright smile. "It's about time! Gosh, this is amazing news!" she exclaimed excitedly.“Wait, you’re not mad I didn’t tell you earlier?”She looked at me like I was crazy. “Should I be?”“I guess not.”“I’m definitely not mad. In fact, I appreciate you waiting to tell me in person, and this isn’t about me, remember? This is about you finally fighting for the happiness you deserve,” she said.“Thank you so much, Lucaa. I honestly wouldn’t have had the cour
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 127~ What Did The Doctor Say?
CLARAI had always thought that people who claimed to be blissfully happy were always so full of it.Oh, I was so wrong.They were absolutely right. Don't get me wrong. Nothing came close to how happy I was when I held Ale in my arms for the first time, but this was a close second.Ever since the veil had been lifted on our feelings, Mateo and I have been in such a happy bubble. These past few days have felt like a dream.He has made it a point of duty to get home earlier than he usually did so we could all have dinner together and this had not gone unnoticed by Lily and his mom who were unsurprisingly curious about what had changed.I told them that we were trying to rekindle the spark in our relationship and thankfully, his mom believed me. Lily, on the other hand, took me to the side and said it was about time we both got our heads out of our asses.Needless to say, that was her way of telling me that she approved of my new relationship with, Mateo.The only person who was still in
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 126~ Kiss Me, Mateo.
CLARA“Was that so hard for you to admit?” I asked.He looked at me like I had grown two heads and replied. “No, that was surprisingly easy.”“Good, because I didn’t have any plans to leave either,” I said. “I don’t know when or how it started but what I feel for you is nowhere near superficial and I’ve just been waiting for you to catch up.”He groaned like he was in physical pain before he said, “It’s taking everything in me not to kiss you right now.”“Then don’t fight it. Kiss me, Mateo,” I demanded.I had barely gotten the words out before his lips crashed onto mine. We both groaned heavily into each other and honestly, for the first few seconds, I didn’t move.I couldn’t move because I was too afraid that this was all a dream and any movement would kill the bubble we were in but Mateo sensed that and slowly eased me into the kiss, making me melt into him.I kissed him back like he was oxygen and I was air deprived. Like he was the air I didn’t even realize I needed in my life.
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 125~ You’re Mine, Clara.
CLARATalking with Lucaa was exactly what I needed. As much as I hated to admit it, she was right, I couldn’t keep living on ifs and maybes. I needed certainty in my life. So I had to have that conversation with Mateo whenever I got the chance. It was late at night and Ale had been fed, burped and changed. When I finally put him to sleep in crib, I released a sigh of relief.Now that I had put him down, he should be knocked out for at least a couple of hours. Long enough for me to take a quick shower and get some sleep.I grabbed the baby monitor on my way to the bathroom. Although it was unlikely, I wanted to be able to hear my child in case he woke up.I stripped out of my clothes and stepped into the shower, the warm water cascaded through my body, soothing my skin.I debated it for a while before I decided to wash my hair. I haven’t gotten around to doing it for days and I figured now was just as good a time as any. So I grabbed my shampoo and conditioner and proceeded to wash
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 124~ Where Have You Been, Bruno?
MATEOIt’s been about a week now and I still haven’t heard a word from, Bruno.I hated to admit it, but the truth was I was really getting worried. I didn’t know what business he had to get done in Puerto Rico and the last time I checked with him, he had moved on to Mexico.There were a number of possible reasons why he hadn’t been able to reach out and none of them were good.I even told Dominic about it and he was also getting worried, that was after he made fun of my ass for acting like a fucking mother hen.I concluded that if I didn’t hear from him by close of business today, I was going to hit up my contacts in Mexico, maybe one of them might know what’s going on.But as fate would have it, just when I had come to a conclusion, my phone rang and I saw Bruno’s name on display.Accepting the call, I put the phone to my ear. “Where the fuck have you been? I haven’t been able to reach you for days now,” I yelled into the phone but I was met with the sound of laughter.“Do I sound li
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 123~ Mateo’s Avoiding Me.
CLARAAt this point, I was so convinced that Mateo was avoiding me. Apart from the schedule we’ve silently created for Ale’s night feeds, moments when we were both tired and barely able to make conversation, I hardly saw him.He was the one who promised me we were going to have a conversation, but lately, he had been leaving for work earlier than usual and returning late.I couldn’t talk to his mother or Lily about it, they were his family and it was hard for them to be objective so I decided to unload the burdens to my best friend.We agreed to meet at our usual cafe and I was more than happy to leave, Ale in Mrs. Antonia’s care while I took a few hours for myself. I haven’t been out of that house since I got back from the hospital and I was beginning to feel a bit claustrophobic.I ordered a latte and muffin and it got served just as Lucaa came rushing in.“I’m so sorry for being late. I got held up at work and traffic was crazy,” she said sounding out of breath.“It’s okay. I have
