The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 95~ You Should Have Been There!
MATEOI heard stomping in front of my office and I knew who it was before the door was thrown open.My mother came into my office wearing a frown I recognized all too well.I had expected her earlier but a look at the security cameras at the house told me that they were still in the middle of their party and they seemed to be having a blast.For the life of me, I had no idea why I needed to be there, it was a ladies’ affair so if you asked me, my mother’s anger was clearly misguided.“It’s late, Mom. Aren’t you tired after the day you’ve had?” I asked.“What the hell has come over you, Mateo?!”My mother hardly cursed except she was very pissed and that was what she was.“I’m working, Mom, and I don’t appreciate the interruption,” I said.“I don’t care about what it is you’re doing. I didn’t raise you to act the way you did this morning. It was unacceptable and you will apologize to Clara for that.”I sighed and ran my hand through my hair. I’ve had a long day and I didn’t intend to a

CLARAI woke up the next morning, feeling groggy but well rested.The baby chose that moment to start kicking and I rubbed my hands over my belly, hoping to calm me down.It took me a few moments to remember that I wasn’t in the master bedroom but rather in the guest bedroom, Lily usually uses. Damn, yesterday must have taken a lot from me but I could only imagine that Mateo didn’t take too kindly to me not sleeping in the bedroom.Well, that was his business. I had no regrets and I was definitely not going to apologize to him.The door opened and Lily walked in holding a mug. Her eyes lit up when she saw me awake.“Oh, good. You’re awake. I was worried I was going to have to wake you up,” she said.I smiled at her. “Good morning, and thank you for letting me spend the night here. I didn’t want to be alone,” I said.She walked over to me and set the steaming mug of coffee by the nightstand.“You’re welcome. Besides, I liked the company. I think it was another bonding moment for us and

MATEO“I didn’t think you would come all the way here.”Yeah, neither did I. This was the last place on earth I wanted to be but I have fucking appearances to keep up and if Renzetti was going to suspect anything, it won’t be because of my actions.So I turned to Carlos with a false smile and said, “Well, you’re certainly not important enough for me to make the trip so common sense should tell you that I’m here for someone else. Unless of course you already know and you just revel in acting foolish.”That triggered his anger and he growled, “How dare you!?”“Careful, Carlos. You may be the boss’ second in command but know that I still outrank you. Know your place,” I replied with a smug smile on my face, pleased with myself that I was able to rile him up.If I had to be here, I might as well shake some tables while I was at it. I knew Carlos didn’t like me, and the feeling was definitely mutual.In fact, if anyone was more likely to poison Renzetti’s mind about me, then my money was o

RENZETTI“I’m calling this off,” I said.“No,” Carlos said. “I know he’s hiding something. I’m sure of it.”“You don’t know shit, Carlos. The only thing I know is that you’re wasting my time and resources on something that is not true because why else do you still have nothing to hang on Mateo after all this time?”“I think he’s just very good at covering his tracks but I have a feeling that he’s going to slip soon.”I scowled at him. “I don’t pay you to think or have feelings. You do what I tell you and nothing more. I’ve tolerated this bullshit for long enough and you’re going to put a stop to it,” I ordered.“You know I have never disrespected an order from you before but I really think it will be a mistake to let this go so easily,” Carlos argued.“I don’t make mistakes, Carlos,” I growled. “You don’t get to where I am without learning how to be perfect so I’m ordering you to stand down. I don’t want to have this conversation with you again.”“How about I just put one man on him?”

DOMINICShit!Mateo’s plan actually worked and his babysitter was currently on my tail. But fuck, he was really shitty at his job.Renzetti really needed to invest in better men because this was like taking candy from a baby.I intentionally drove to the other side of town and headed towards the woods. This area was secluded and hardly got any foot traffic because of the rumors of wild animals lurking in the woods.I personally knew that the story was bullshit but we had found enough dead bodies here to make the story believable. So I figured this was the perfect spot to get myself acquainted with our friend.Maybe he might get an epiphany and decide to rethink his decision. There’s a slim chance of that happening but one can still hope, right?I glanced in my rear view. He was a few yards away from me but he was still there alright, which was perfect.I parked the car at the foot of the forest and walked into the woods. Welcome to my world motherfucker.I could hear his footsteps beh

DOMINIC“It seems our little play worked out perfectly. I haven’t seen my babysitter in a while. Whatever you did, it must have been enough to scare him away,” Mateo said.“I guess it’s a good thing he listened to my warning,” I replied but he narrowed his eyes at me.“Did you kill him, Dominic?” he asked.I laughed and shook my head. “I’m sure I’ll know if I did.”“That’s not an answer,” Mateo responded.“No, I did not kill him,” I replied. “I only injured him enough to pass my message across and left him in the woods.”“Good, the last thing I want is a war to break out before we have our affairs in order.”“I know that more than anyone else, Mateo,” I said. “How was the meeting with Bruno?”“It went okay,” he replied. “Actually, it kinda gave me an idea.”“Hmmm… I’m not switching clothes with you ever again if that’s what you’re thinking,” I joked.“Nah… I think once was more than enough,” he replied.“Then what is this grand plan of yours?” I asked.“I can’t go to war without co

MATEOI was woken by the sound of my ringing phone and I grabbed it from the nightstand as quickly as I could so I wouldn’t wake, Clara.I answered the call and put it to my ear. “What the hell, Dominic? It’s fucking three am in the morning,” I whispered.“Something’s come up and we need to meet,” he said.I looked at the number he had called me at. “You’re using your burner phone, can’t you just tell me what it is now? Or better still couldn’t this wait until dawn?”“I wouldn’t be calling you if it wasn’t important and no, I can’t take the chance and tell you over the phone so we need to meet now,” he replied.Fuck!Dominic wouldn’t be acting like this if everything was okay and all fingers were pointing at the bait I had him set.“Fine, let’s meet at the warehouse on the edge of town,” I said.“Got it,” he replied and ended the call.I sighed and checked to see whether Clara was still sleeping. Thankfully, she still was.She hadn’t been getting enough sleep because of her discomfo

CLARAI was days past my due date and at a point, I thought I was going to opt for an induction because of how stubborn this baby was.To make matters worse, I was so uncomfortable that I had to be put on bed rest which meant that the baby shower had to be postponed.I just wanted this baby out. I was so over being pregnant and honestly, I wanted to hold my baby.When my water finally broke in the middle of the kitchen, it was just me and Christopher in the house. Thankfully, he didn’t panic.I told him where my hospital bag was upstairs and he ran to get it, before getting in the car and driving me to the hospital.I tried to reach out to Lucaa on my way to the hospital but I couldn’t get through to her so I left a text, hopefully it went through. But the contractions came all of a sudden during the short ride to the hospital and judging by my calculations, they were less than two minutes apart which was weird because I shouldn’t be feeling this much pain when my water just broke.I

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
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 122~ What’s Between You & Alina?
MATEOThe house was quiet by the time I got back.I’m guessing that was because they decided to turn in early, especially since it was a given that the baby was going to be up crying in the middle of the night.I headed towards the master bedroom but decided at the last minute to take a detour towards the guest rooms.I knocked on the door, hoping that she was still awake and the door was opened a few moments later.“It’s late,” she said.“I know, Mom but I really want to talk to you and I figured now is as good a time as any,” I replied.Mom glared at me before moving sideways so I could come inside. She closed the door and moved to sit on the bed while I remained standing.“Now say what it is you want to say,” she said.“I know you’re mad at me and you have every right to be,” I started and she scoffed.“Mad? That doesn’t even begin to cover the range of emotions that I’m currently feeling,” she replied.I nodded in agreement. “I know and I also know that there’s nothing that I can
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 121~ Trust Me, Clara. You’re In.
CLARAI stared at Lily, unsure of what to say, but I couldn’t keep quiet any longer, so I went with the first thing that popped into my head.“I don’t think you need to thank me. I haven’t done anything except take up space in here,” I said.Lily shook her head in disagreement. “That’s not true and you know it. Stop selling yourself short, Clara, and just take the credit you’re due,” she said.But that was the thing. I wasn’t due any credit. That will just make me more of a fraud.“Listen, Lily. I don’t know what makes you think I’ve done anything to make Mateo a different man since I moved in here but I can assure you that I haven’t done anything,” I told her.“The fact that you don’t see it speaks a lot about the magnitude of what you’ve done,” Lily said.“Hmmm… I really think you’re mistaken. If there’s anyone that has gained anything then it’s me. Although our situation isn’t quite conventional, Matoe gave me access to a community of people that have accepted me and my son as thei
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 120~ Do I have feelings for, Mateo?
CLARAAfter Alina left, one of the housekeepers came over to clean up the mess she had made, and Christopher was gracious enough to fix me another plate.I tried to apologize to him for Alina’s behavior towards him but he looked at me as if I was the most ridiculous being on the planet for even doing that and told me I had nothing to apologize for.The atmosphere in the house changed and became lighter. Everyone, especially the staff had been walking on eggshells since yesterday and trying their best to avoid it, Alina and I didn’t blame them one bit because I was kind of guilty of the same.However, I was grateful that I didn’t have to deal with her again. The last thing I wanted was fight a woman over a man. A man whom I wasn’t sure how he really felt about me. It would be like pouring water in a basket and expecting it to get full, a wasted effort.Now that I had my son, the last thing I wanted to do was waste my time on things that aren’t worth it. Did I have feelings for, Mateo?
