She reached the door as she opened it, and disappeared, closing the door behind her with a soft click.

Leaving me in the room with my team, with the salvaged presentation.

Mrs Eleanor apologized as she continued the presentation, her voice steady, professional.

Harris was listening intently as the business was proceeding. But my mind was already elsewhere.

With her.

The meeting was already over at this moment as I turned from the investors. Addressed Eleanor, who was great at what she did.

“Her office.”

“Mr. Alvaro?”

“Her office,” I repeated, my voice colder now, brooking no argument. “Leila Jones. Where is it?”

Eleanor hesitated for a fraction of a second, then, seeing the look in my eyes, she nodded. “Just down the hall, Sir. Third door on the left.”

“Thank you.”

I turned, giving Harry a go ahead for the continuation, and then turned from where Eleanor and the only lady who I learned was Sophia, I guess her new found friend, I walked towards the back of the room, toward

  • The Mafia's Little Raven   Chapter 127

    LEILA.. He was gone and I was left here alone in this room that felt both empty and utterly full, the air still thick with the scent of our sex, a scent that clung to the fabric of my dress and filled my senses, my body humming and vibrating with the echo of his touch and the raw, undeniable pleasure of it all that still consumed me.What the actual fuck. My mind screamed with disbelief and confusion, trying to make sense of the last few minutes and the last few hours and the sheer, impossible reality of what had just happened here, in my office.One minute I was drowning in a goddamn ocean of brokenness and humiliation in that conference room, my career shattering before my eyes in a public display of my unraveling, the next this. Him. Us.How in the hell did I even get here from that point of utter professional and emotional collapse?From wanting to disappear from the face of the earth, to being completely consumed by him.My mind scrambled, trying to piece together the fractur

    DAMIEN..That Leila had been my first, not just a first love in the simple sense, but a first connection on a level that had reshaped my understanding of myself and others, the origin point of everything that mattered, from when we were younger, watching her and painting her and documenting my silent obsession, the seed planted long ago, growing in the shadows of my life.And how much I was utterly obsessed with her, it wasn’t just admiration, it was a deep-seated, all-consuming obsession, a need to possess and to control and to keep safe, a need so profound that I had to collaborate with her company, to be near her and to be in her world and to own a piece of what she had built, piece by painstaking piece.I had told Harris to keep my profile a secret, no one knew I was coming to this place today.And just today I realized one thing, standing in the conference room and seeing her break and seeing the depth of her reaction, the raw emotion on her face, the way my presence shattered

    DAMIEN..I reached out slowly, my hand lifting towards her face across the small space that separated us, my movement closing the distance not just physically but emotionally, bridging the chasm of years and unspoken words, a silent question posed in the language of touch, of skin on skin, a question I needed answered with a desperation that surprised me, a need that transcended mere curiosity, a need that consumed me.I closed the distances, the small space between us dissolving as I took a step closer, then another, until I was standing just inches away from her, close enough to touch, close enough to feel the heat radiating from her skin, the tremor that still ran through her body, a silent resonance of the storm she couldn't contain, a confirmation of her vulnerability and her strength.I reached out, and my fingers traced the line of her jaw gently, a feather-light touch that sent a jolt through her, I saw it in her eyes, a widening, a deepening of their dark pools, a visible r

    LEILA..I was standing behind the podium, my hands gripping the edges as if it were the only solid thing in a suddenly tilting world, the cool wood a small anchor in the rising heat of my shock and the crumbling weight of my composure.My team stood behind me, a unified front moments ago, now frozen in place, their faces reflecting my own stunned disbelief, although they didn’t know who he was to me, but they were shocked that he was here.Everyone knew him of course.Sophia was seated with other Veridian staff observers, her eyes, I knew, fixed on me, a silent broadcast of concern across the expanse of the room.I was at the final segment of the presentation. The crucial closing remarks, the articulation of the vision that had brought us to this pivotal point.My voice was clear moments ago, filled with confidence, ready to lay out the future, to convince these powerful individuals that their investment in Veridian was not a gamble, but a certainty. I had been almost done talking.

  • The Mafia's Little Raven   Chapter 122

    DAMIEN..I walked into the room.The energy shifted. A ripple went through the air, a sudden hush falling over the low murmur of conversation.It was deliberated and calculated.My entrance.I moved from the doorway into the conference room, a figure in a dark suit, radiating a controlled, formidable power that silenced the space.My footsteps on the floor were measured and steady. I felt every eye in the room turn towards me.My gaze went around the room at first, scanning and assessing, taking in the layout, the people seated around the long, polished table.The investors, of course my team.The Veridian team, clustered near the front and then my gaze swept across the front of the room.The podium. The screen behind it, displaying a complex graph and her.My gaze then met hers.She was standing behind the podium. Frozen.Her presentation notes forgotten and her eyes wide, staring at me.All color drained from her face and I could see the shock.And in that instant, the world narro
