* Miranda *

I carried the empty tray only to have something in my hands. Something to steady them because I was shaking. Meeting Marcial was something I did not expect. He is a very good-looking man but unlike Lorenzo, he doesn't have a single gentleness in his bones. The house had changed again, quieter, but not peaceful. Quiet like a held breath.

A servant intercepted me at the turn of the stairs.

"Signora, Signore Salvatore is asking for you."

I nodded at her then I set the tray aside and we

  • The Mafia King and His Bride   Chapter 107. The Three of us

    * Miranda *The world came back to me in fragments before I opened my eyes. First, the quiet. Not the suffocating silence I had grown used to, but the kind that meant danger was near, that something was about to happen. This silence was soft. It breathed. It wrapped around me like warm sheets, like something safe.Then the ache of my whole body. A deep, lingering soreness settled in my stomach, heavy and undeniable. My limbs felt weak, my chest rising slowly as if even breathing required effort. But beneath it all, there was something else.Something lighter. I remembered I gave birth, pushing my son oug of me. I felt my heart swell with gladness. My eyes fluttered open.The ceiling above me was unfamiliar, but I didn't panic. Not this time. My hand instinctively moved to my stomach, and I know. Flat. Not completely, not yet, but empty in a way it hadn't been for months.My heart skipped. The memories rushed back all at once pain, voices, the doctor, Lorenzo's hand gripping mine, his

  • The Mafia King and His Bride   Chapter 106. Calm and Rest

    * Lorenzo *"Congratulations on your healthy baby boy!"Armand cheerfully exclaimed as I went inside the library and poured myself a glass of whiskey in my eyes. I still couldn't believe it. My mind was still occupied with his tiny face."Thank you, Armand."I took a sip of the whiskey and relaxed. I haven't slept for twenty-four hours since Miranda started her labor. But strangely I don't feel exhausted at all."Any news on my brother?"It sounded casual but Armand groaned. Suddenly he remembers something unpleasant."Fortunately, Marcial was quiet boss, there is no email from him. But I am sure he already know that we have transferred into a different place. He could be trying to find us now. He seemed desperate for money the last time you spoke to him.""You're right. And how about my father?"Armand smiled and shook his head. "The old man has no idea where we are hiding. But he has paid people to look for you and Miranda. I have friends from the underground business, your picture

  • The Mafia King and His Bride   Chapter 105. The Awaited Day

    * Miranda *The days passed then turned into weeks, leading up to my due felt, strangely complete. Not calm. Not entirely peaceful. But settled in a way I hadn't allowed myself to feel before. Everything was ready.The small room Lorenzo had prepared had slowly transformed into something softer, something warmer than anything his world should have allowed. The crib stood near the window, sunlight brushing over it every morning like a quiet promise. The tiny clothes were folded neatly, some I had arranged myself despite the nurse insisting I should rest.I needed to do it. To touch every piece of what was waiting for our son and make it real. Because for so long, nothing in my life had been certain. But this. This was.My hand rested over my stomach as I stood there, feeling the slow, heavy shift of him inside me. Seven months had turned into eight. Eight into nine. Every movement now was stronger. Demanding to be born. Alive and kicking."You're impatient," I whispered softly, a faint

  • The Mafia King and His Bride   Chapter 104. Leverage

    * Lorenzo *Miranda's words didn't leave me when I stepped out of the room. It occupied my mind throughout the day.Not as doubt or hesitation. Since Marcial made his demand, I wasn't thinking about how to pay him.I was thinking about why he needed the money.The door shut quietly behind me, sealing Miranda, back into the illusion of safety I had built for them. The moment the lock clicked, the air around me changed.Armand was already waiting at the end of the corridor.He didn't ask questions. "Office," I said. That was enough. Minutes later, we were underground. One of the secured rooms beneath the property, no windows, no signals getting out unless I allowed it. Armand placed the tablet in front of me, files already pulled up."Brazil operations," he said calmly. "I started digging the moment Marcial reached out."I didn't sit immediately. My gaze stayed on the screen, but my mind was still on Miranda's voice. It's odd that he would ask you for that much. She was right."Show me

  • The Mafia King and His Bride   Chapter 103. Financial Issue

    * Miranda *I didn't ask him what the call was about when he answered his phone. The moment the phone rang, I felt it, the shift. The air changed around him. The warmth that had wrapped around us only seconds ago turned sharp, as something invisible had cut through it. Lorenzo didn't raise his voice. But I could tell based on his expression. The silence between his words said enough.And I knew him now. Not just the man who held me gently or spoke to our son like he already existed in his arms, but the man who carried danger in his shadow.When he turned back to me, he tried to bury it. I saw the effort in the way his expression softened, in the way his hand returned to my face like nothing had happened. But I had already seen it. And I had heard just enough.Fifty million. The number echoed in my head long after he spoke again, long after he promised me everything would be fine. My fingers tightened slightly against his shirt as he leaned into me, his forehead resting against mine li

  • The Mafia King and His Bride   Chapter 102. Money

    * Lorenzo *I had faced men who begged for their lives, watched other clans collapse under my decisions, and stood in rooms where a single word from me decided who walked out breathing. But none stirred my feelings the most.A boy. Our baby is a boy. The doctor's voice still echoed in my head long after we left. A son. For a moment, standing there in that quiet house with Miranda in my arms, everything else, my father, the hunt, the constant calculation, fell away like it had never existed.My son. My hand moved almost unconsciously, settling over her stomach again, slower this time. More deliberate. As if I needed to confirm it was real."He's strong," I said quietly, my voice lower than usual. Not guarded or controlled. Just, certain. The shift beneath my palm came again, firmer this time. I felt it fully.And something inside me broke open. A sharp inhale left me before I could stop it. My jaw tightened, but it wasn't restraint this time. It was everything I wasn't used to feeling.

    * Lorenzo *I slammed the door harder than necessary blaming it for my frustrations and stalked down the corridor like the house itself had betrayed me.Idiot. I know I am the one! Absolute fucking idiot.Every step away from her room felt like tearing something out of my chest. My pulse was still

    * Miranda *I have slept through the night but when the first light of the morning came out, my phone vibrated against the nightstand sharp and insistent, dragging me up from my sleep. For a second I didn't know where I was, only white sheets, the morning light, and the faint ache behind my eyes th

    * Miranda *I couldn't breathe well the whole time we were dancing. It was awkward because I knew from the first day I met him that Lorenzo didn't like me. So, the moment he released me, the air felt different.Lighter. And I became free.I hadn't realized how tightly I'd been holding myself togeth

    * Lorenzo *I must admit that her body fit against mine perfectly even with an ease that felt wrong for how deliberate it was. Too soft, not tentative, just there, pressed into my frame as the orchestra slipped into something slow and indulgent. A waltz meant for appearances. For sealing lies.I se
