The night was thick with silence, the kind that presses against your chest and makes each breath feel heavy. I couldn’t sleep. My mind raced, replaying Luca’s warnings and Dante’s intense words from earlier days. The mansion, which had seemed imposing and cold before, now felt like a living thing — shadows moving with intent, whispers curling through the hallways, every corner hiding a possible threat.

I had convinced myself I was prepared for the rules, for the tension, for Dante’s control. Bu

  • The Mafia Who Bought Me    Aftermath

    The silence after the gunfire felt unreal. For several seconds, I didn't move. My body was still pressed against Dante's side, my fingers gripping the sleeve of his jacket as if letting go might make the nightmare start all over again.The mansion smelled different now. Gunpowder. Smoke. Blood. My chest rose and fell unevenly as I tried to steady my breathing. The adrenaline that had kept me moving during the attack was fading, leaving behind a wave of exhaustion and delayed fear.Footsteps echoed through the hallway as guards rushed past us, their voices low and urgent."Clear the west wing.""Two intruders down.""Check the perimeter again."The mansion that had seemed so controlled and elegant only hours ago now looked like a battlefield. Broken glass glittered across the marble floor. A shattered vase lay near the staircase. One of the guards leaned against the wall while another pressed cloth against a wound on his arm.This was Dante's world. And tonight, I had finally seen the

    The night was thick with silence, the kind that presses against your chest and makes each breath feel heavy. I couldn’t sleep. My mind raced, replaying Luca’s warnings and Dante’s intense words from earlier days. The mansion, which had seemed imposing and cold before, now felt like a living thing — shadows moving with intent, whispers curling through the hallways, every corner hiding a possible threat.I had convinced myself I was prepared for the rules, for the tension, for Dante’s control. But nothing could prepare me for the unknown. The feeling of being hunted, even under the roof of the world’s most dangerous man, was suffocating.A faint creak echoed through the hall outside my room. My heart leapt into my throat. The guards’ footsteps usually followed a precise rhythm, but these weren’t them. These were lighter, cautious, deliberate, the steps of someone sneaking, someone who shouldn’t be here.I froze, pressing myself against the wall. My pulse thumped so loudly I was certain

  • The Mafia Who Bought Me    The Warning

    The mansion had fallen eerily silent after the conversation with Dante. Even the servants moved cautiously, like they were stepping through a house where danger could appear from any shadow. My thoughts, however, were anything but quiet. Every word Dante had said, every look, every intensity behind his eyes replayed in my mind like a looping nightmare I couldn’t wake from.I had questions which were burning, desperate questions — but fear held my tongue. Every time I thought of asking him, I felt the weight of his presence pressing down on me. His rules, his warnings, his control over this place… it was suffocating and magnetic all at once. I didn’t know whether to run or to stay, and the tug-of-war inside me was exhausting.That’s when Luca found me.He appeared quietly in the hallway outside the study, leaning casually against the frame of the doorway, though his eyes were anything but relaxed. He looked at me, really looked at me, and for the first time, I felt like someone in this

  • The Mafia Who Bought Me    The Real Reason

    The mansion felt heavier that evening, as if the walls themselves were holding their breath, waiting for something to happen. I wandered the quiet hallways, unsure if I was looking for answers or just trying to escape the tightness in my chest. Dante's words from earlier that morning — "You remind me of someone" — replayed over and over in my mind, a riddle I couldn't solve.I paused in front of one of the large windows overlooking the gardens. The night was dark, but the moon cast a pale glow, illuminating the perfectly trimmed hedges and marble fountains. The calm outside was a cruel contrast to the storm raging inside me. I had so many questions, and yet, I didn't know if I dared ask them.I barely noticed Dante's approach until he was standing behind me, silent and commanding, like a shadow that had materialized from nowhere. His presence made the air thick; I could feel it pressing against my skin."Elena," he said softly, and my name on his lips made my heart skip, a strange, un

  • The Mafia Who Bought Me    The Rules

    I barely slept that night. The room was quiet, yet the silence felt heavy, almost suffocating, like the walls themselves were watching me. Every sound — a floorboard creaking, the soft flutter of drapes, a distant laugh from the staff — made my heart lurch. I had tried to convince myself I was safe in this enormous mansion, that Dante Moretti wasn't looking over me every second… but the truth was undeniable. His presence lingered even when he wasn't there, a weight pressing down on me, reminding me that I was no longer free.Morning came, though I barely noticed. Light filtered faintly through the heavy drapes, turning the gold accents of the room into a soft, unreal glow. I had hoped, foolishly, that the day might bring answers — maybe even a sense of relief — but as I stepped to the door, my optimism crumbled.Dante was waiting.He didn't speak immediately. He simply stood there, tall and imposing, his black suit tailored so perfectly it seemed as though it was part of him. Dark hai

  • The Mafia Who Bought Me    The Mafia Mansion

    The doors closed behind me with a soft, final click, and suddenly, the world felt smaller, sharper, more dangerous. The air inside the mansion was cool, scented faintly with something expensive — leather, wood polish, and faint traces of tobacco. My heels clicked against the polished floors, echoing unnaturally in the cavernous halls. I tried to keep my head down, to vanish into myself, but there was no hiding here.Dante walked ahead of me, silent, powerful, every step deliberate. I could feel the weight of his presence behind me like a shadow, impossibly large and consuming. Every fiber of my being screamed that this man was not ordinary. Not rich. Not just powerful. Dangerous.The mansion was immense. Expansive corridors stretched out in every direction, adorned with expensive artwork, gilded frames, and chandeliers that glittered like captured stars. My eyes darted from one detail to the next, overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of it all. I realized, with a sinking feeling, that
