The Mafia Don's Stolen Bride The Red Dossier
"I must go," Elara whispered, stepping back from the serving cart. "The guards will get suspicious if I stay in here any longer.""Wait, Elara," Flora said, grabbing the maid's sleeve. "What happens if Doni catches me inside the study?""He will lock you in the basement," Elara replied, her voice trembling. "Mr. Sterling does not tolerate spies in his house. The basement is soundproof, Flora. You do not want to go down there.""I am not a spy," Flora argued. "I am a hostage. I have a right to know why I am going to die.""To them, it is the exact same thing," Elara warned. "Please, just be quick. Do not leave a mess.""Did you ever see the actual file? The one the council gave him?" Flora asked, needing a visual clue."I only saw the cover once, when he left it on the dining table," Elara answered, looking nervously at the main bedroom doors. "It is a thick red folder. It has a black wax seal on the front. The Finch family crest.""A red folder with a black seal," Flora repeated, memo

The heavy oak doors unlocked with a sharp click. Flora did not turn away from the floor-to-ceiling windows. She kept her eyes on the rain still drizzling over the high stone walls of the Sterling estate."I brought you fresh tea, ma'am," a soft voice said.Flora finally turned. It wasn't Arthur. It was an older woman in a crisp black and white maid's uniform. She had graying hair pulled into a tight bun and kind, tired eyes. She pushed a small serving cart into the room, carefully avoiding the torn pieces of the wedding dress still lying on the floor from last night."I told the guards I didn't want anything," Flora said, her voice hoarse."You must drink something," the maid insisted gently, pouring steaming chamomile tea into a porcelain cup. "Mr. Sterling left early this morning for a syndicate meeting. He ordered the staff to ensure you eat. My name is Elara, by the way. I am the head housekeeper here.""Did he order you to call me 'ma'am' too?" Flora asked bitterly."No. That is

The recording clicked off. The apartment fell into a deafening, suffocating silence.Devon stared at the small black device on the glass table. His brain struggled to process the words he had just heard. It didn't make sense. It couldn't make sense."Devon," Vanessa whispered. Her voice was shaking, but her eyes were darting around the room, calculating her next move. "That... that is a fake. Arthur Sterling fabricated that. It's AI voice generation!"Devon slowly looked up at her. His eyes were wide, completely bloodshot, and filled with a terrifyingly quiet realization."You paid the operator," Devon said. His voice was completely flat."No! Devon, listen to me, I swear—""You set up the cameras in Arthur's hotel," Devon continued, standing up slowly. He took a step toward her. "Arthur didn't record that video. You did."Vanessa backed away, hitting the edge of the kitchen island. "You are not thinking straight! Arthur is trying to turn us against each other!""Doni brought a photo

"Pour me another one."Devon sat on the edge of the leather sofa in his apartment, staring blankly at the glass coffee table. The left side of his jaw was completely swollen, bruised a deep, ugly purple from where Arthur’s man had struck him with the pistol. He held a glass of whiskey in his right hand, his knuckles white from gripping it so tightly.Vanessa stood by the kitchen island, holding a bottle of scotch. She poured a generous amount into his glass, masking the triumphant smirk on her face with a look of deep concern."You need to slow down, Devon," Vanessa said, her voice soft and sympathetic. "Drinking yourself to death isn't going to change what happened today.""I let him take her," Devon muttered, his voice slurred and thick with self-hatred. "He walked right in, held a gun to my father's head, and carried Flora out like she was a piece of property. And I just lay there bleeding on the floor.""There was nothing you could do," Vanessa said, sitting next to him on the sof

Arthur released her wrists but kept his heavy body pressed against hers on the desk. Flora scrambled backward, her breathing ragged, until her back hit the towering bookshelves."Get away from me," Flora said, her voice shaking uncontrollably."I gave you time," Arthur said, calmly straightening the cuffs of his black shirt. "I gave you a room, clothes, and food. You responded by throwing glass at my head.""You kidnapped me!""I married you.""At gunpoint!" Flora yelled."The method doesn't matter," Arthur stated flatly. "The result is exactly the same. Now, get off my desk and go to the bedroom.""No."Arthur sighed, a short, sharp exhale. "Flora. Do not make me carry you again. I am losing my patience.""What happens when you lose it?" Flora challenged, grabbing a heavy hardcover book from the shelf behind her. "You hit me?""I don't hit my wife," Arthur said, taking a slow step toward her. "But I will tie you to that bed if you force me to."Flora's grip on the book faltered. "You

Flora woke up with a sharp gasp, her chest heaving as her eyes darted around the unfamiliar room. The digital clock on the mahogany nightstand read 8:00 AM. She was completely alone in the massive king-size bed. She quickly slipped her hand under the dark silk pillow. The cold, metal handle of the silver fruit knife was still there. She let out a shaky breath, leaving it hidden, and pushed the heavy blankets off her legs.She ran to the main double doors and grabbed the brass handles. She pulled with all her strength. Locked."Open the door!" Flora yelled, slamming her palms against the thick oak wood. "Hey! Is anyone out there? Open this door!"Total silence.She backed away, breathing heavily, and turned her attention to the floor-to-ceiling windows. She unlatched the heavy glass door and stepped out onto the wide stone balcony. The cold morning air hit her face. She looked down, hoping to find a drainpipe or a trellis.Instead, she saw three massive Rottweilers patrolling the manic
