* Miranda *

Weeks passed, I still believed he would come. Not because it was easy, but because it was Lorenzo. He wasn't built for obedience the way his father wanted him to be. Because I had seen the way his restraint cracked, the way his control slipped whenever I was involved. I held onto that version of him like something solid.

So I waited. Morning turned into evening. Evening into long, silent nights where the city lights outside the penthouse windows flickered like distant promises that

  • 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.

  • The Mafia King and His Bride   Chapter 101. Another Place

    * Miranda *When the doors closed behind us, the silence I felt was different. Not the tense quiet of hiding or the suffocating stillness of waiting to be found. This silence breathed.I stood there for a second longer than I meant to, my hand instinctively pressing against the curve of my stomach. Seven months now. The weight of it was no longer something I could ignore. Every movement reminded me, of life, of fragility, of what we were risking.And yet, for the first time since we left, my chest loosened."This place." I whispered, my voice barely carrying through the open space.It didn't feel like one of De Luca's extra properties. Like the last one, there were no sharp edges of control. No invisible eyes watching from the walls or cameras. No cold luxury meant to impress power.This place felt, like a home to live in. Or maybe it was waiting to be. I took a slow step forward. Then another.The wooden floor beneath my feet was warm, solid. The faint scent of pine and something cle

  • The Mafia King and His Bride   Chapter 100. Little Family

    * Lorenzo *I just stood there longer than I should have. Only watching her. Miranda sat near the window, the soft light falling across her in a way that made everything feel, almost ordinary. Her hand rested protectively over her stomach, absentminded, instinctive—our child. For a moment, I let myself pretend Marcial had never been here. That nothing had change in the place I thought safe. But I didn't build my life on illusions.And I wouldn't start now. I crossed the room slowly. Controlled steps. The same way I approached every decision that could cost lives. Her eyes lifted to mine immediately. She always felt it, when something in me changed."What is it Lorenzo," she asked quietly. There is no fear in her beautiful eyes. Just awareness. I stopped in front of her."There's something you need to know." The words sat heavy in my mouth. Not because I didn't want to tell her. Because once I did, this place, this fragile peace, would be over.Her hand tightened slightly over her sto

  • The Mafia King and His Bride   Chapter 99. Brotherhood

    * Lorenzo *I had measured victories before even back when I was working for my father. Territories secured for the De Luca family. Deals closed. Enemies buried before they could become problems by the help of my brother.But none of them felt like this, with Miranda. Not like standing across from her in the quiet of a place no one was supposed to find, watching her breathe easier, move slower, live without flinching at every sound.And knowing I was the reason for it. Her pregnancy was progressing exactly as it should. Our baby is growing in her belly. Stable, healthy and strong.Every report the doctor gave me confirmed it. Every quiet check-in, every controlled detail I had arranged, it was working. I had taken her out of my father's reach.And for now, my father still had nothing on our whereabouts. He doesn't know our location. No trail or any mistake to follow. I had erased us clean from the net and public cameras. But peace like this never came without cost.And it never lasted

  • The Mafia King and His Bride   Chapter 57. Rest

    * Miranda *Dinner was quieter than I expected, yet fuller than any feast the mansion had offered on top of the table. Without Salvatore's presence, the long table seemed to shrink. Now I can look at Lorenzo anytime I want.He insisted we sit near the window instead of at opposite ends. It was less
