Katarina’s POV – Mountain Safehouse

I couldn’t sleep.

The fire was out, but my skin still burned.

Everywhere he’d touched me—his paintbrush, his fingers—it lingered. Between my thighs. Along my spine. The circles he’d drawn over my breasts. The way he whispered behind my ear like sin dripped from his teeth.

I’d showered. Dried. Pulled on a fresh robe.

Still tingled.

Still ached.

I couldn’t take it anymore. The ache in my thighs hadn’t gone away. It just simmered lower, darker.

He hadn’t even fucked me.

And still, my body betrayed me.

I slipped out of the makeshift bed. The fireplace burned low. Shadows danced against the walls. I crept down the hall barefoot, robe tied loose, heart hammering for reasons I didn’t want to name. The floor creaked beneath my bare feet as I crept down the hall. His room was dim, the fireplace flickering low. I pushed the door open slowly, and it creaked open.

Vittorio was asleep.

For the first time since I met him, he looked… vulnerable.

  • The Mafia Kings Plaything    Chapter 78:The Nurse with No Past

    Vittorio POV: Still At His Mansion"Say that again."I didn’t raise my voice. Didn’t move.The sound of Scarface whining grated on my last nerve.He’d been moaning for the past hour—about the bullet, the cold floor, the chains digging into his wrists. I didn’t care. The stench of his rotting leg was starting to burn through the walls. Maybe that was poetic.I spun. Grabbed him by the jaw.“You got one chance, rat. Tell me why Giordano wanted Katarina.”Scarface whimpered I stared at him. Sweating. Pathetic. Face pale, lips dry, shirt clinging to his back like plastic wrap. He wasn’t built for pain. Not the kind I gave.“You want water?” I asked calmly.He nodded fast. “Y-yeah, boss. Please”I slammed my fist into the wall beside him.The plaster cracked. Loud. A jagged line ripped through the brick, dust raining down like ash.Scarface flinched like he’d been shot again. Eyes wide, legs twitching against the rope.But I didn’t move.I stared at the wall.A torn piece of yellowed pape

  • The Mafia Kings Plaything    Chapter 77: The Other Half of Him

    Vittorio POV At The DeLuca Mansion“Get. Out.”I didn’t whisper it. I didn’t scream it. I said it like a sentence.The moans from my bedroom were getting louder.My boots slammed down the marble hallway, the cane tapping beside me like a ticking bomb. I could hear the thud of skin on skin. A woman’s breathless gasp. Wet slaps. A man's low growl.My brother’s growl.The twin who vanished after Fiorella died. The bastard who left me alone to drown in the wreckage of her loss.And now?Valentino was back.Fucking some long-legged brunette on my sheets.My sheets.I kicked the door open so hard the knob smashed into the wall.I grabbed the lamp and hurled it. It shattered against the wall, missing his skull by an inch.“You’re in my bed!” I roared. “My fucking bed, Tino!”“Vit!” he called out, grinning like he’d just walked into a bar, not my goddamn bedroom. “You’re early.” The woman didn’t stop. Neither did he.Her head was thrown back, mouth wide. He had her from behind, one hand o

  • The Mafia Kings Plaything    Chapter 76: We Either Rot or Run

    Kat POV in Giordano MansionWe didn’t get the chance.Two days later, the container cracked open to light.Real light. Sunlight.Blinded me.Then rough hands dragged us out. We were shoved into a van. Driven for what felt like forever. No talking. No water. Just heat.When they pulled us out again, I saw it.The estate.White walls. Palm trees. Fountains.Hell dressed in silk.They cleaned us up. Threw dresses at us. Told us to stay in the east wing.I hid the key in the lining of my bra.At night, the air turned sharp. Cold. It smelled like metal, old perfume, and fear.Maribel leaned in so close I felt her breath on my cheek. “You still got that plan?”I didn’t blink. I nodded once. “Then let’s go.”She moved fast, quieter than I expected—like this wasn’t her first time running from a nightmare. The tiny key trembled in her hand as she reached for the old, rusted padlock on the door.She tried it once. Nothing. Tried again. Still stuck.“Shit,” she whispered. “It’s not working

  • The Mafia Kings Plaything    Chapter 75: Hang On, Vittorio

    Katarina POV Inside The Shipping Container On Sea This Time“Don’t you fucking die on me.”My voice cracked. My hands were shaking, pressed against Maribel’s shoulder. She was breathing. Barely. Her head lolled back, mouth dry, lips cracked like old pavement.“Hey,” I whispered, slapping her cheek lightly. “Wake up. Come on, don’t do this. I need someone to be miserable with.”She groaned. One eye blinked open.“God,” she croaked. “You’re still here.”“Yeah, lucky you. Your cellmate’s got bad breath and a worse attitude.”The floor of the container rocked beneath us again. Salt air seeped in through the rusted vents. It smelled like wet iron and sea rot. Like the ocean was trying to swallow us whole.I leaned back against the cold wall, staring at the ceiling.“Still moving,” I muttered.The chains around my wrists clanked as I shifted. My ankles ached. Every muscle felt like I’d been dragged across concrete.“How long’ve we been at sea?” I asked.Maribel coughed weakly. “I stopped co

  • The Mafia Kings Plaything    Chapter 74: Masked Women

    Giordano POV at his villa near the seashore“Where the fuck is Scarface?”I slammed the glass down hard. Champagne spilled, fizzing over the marble. No one answered.“He’s missing probably caught by De Luca,” Mikey said from the shadows. “We will keep searching.”Giordano snarled. “I should’ve killed him when I had the chance.” I wiped the glass with my ring finger. “Now he’s out there, bleeding and probably talking.”The villa smelled like sex, sweat, and sea salt.My kind of night.I stood on the second-floor balcony, watching the party below. Naked women danced in gold masks, twirling between marble pillars. Men in suits and masks lounged with glasses of dark liquor, passing girls between their laps like cigars. Power dripped off every corner. The kind of party where money forgot how to behave and morals weren’t invited.I turned to Scarface’s boy, standing at my side. “The container?”“Three hours out, boss. Just passed the coast.”Good. My package was on schedule.Katarina Delga

  • The Mafia Kings Plaything    Chapter 73: The Third Ryder

    Selena POV: At Her House, Trying To Bring Out The Other Side Of LiamI didn’t sleep the night before. My body was tired, but my mind was wired, circling around Liam. Or Ash. Or whoever the hell lived inside that boy’s head.Ash said he knew where Katarina was. But he never lasted long. Just a flicker. A shadow. And then he was gone.So I did research. Looked up everything I could find on Dissociative Identity Disorder. Triggers. Grounding techniques. How to summon alters, how not to break them. I wasn’t a damn therapist, but I was desperate.The plan had too many cracks and too many ways to get me killed. But I didn’t care. If there was even a one percent chance that Liam—whatever version of Liam—knew where Katarina was, I had to try.So I set it all up. The room was warm, quiet, and locked. I placed the taser beside me on the couch, hidden but ready. Just in case.“Hey, Sel,” Liam said, walking in with that nervous smile. “You okay?”God. He looked so normal. Hoodie half-zipped, jea
