That night draped over the Morano estate like a thick, mourning shroud. Late Morano was buried immediately, as it was their tradition to bury the Mafias without a delay.

Thunder grumbled beyond the hills. Rain tapped against the stained-glass windows, as if the heavens themselves wept for Alessandro Morano. Every candle flickered with the weight of his passing. Every corridor whispered his name.

But Alessia mourn him just the way everyone else did.

She barely knew the man, yet he had marked her life forever.

Now she was bound by blood, by marriage, by the twisted destiny that threaded her fate to the Moranos'. And to Luca.

She sat on the edge of the bed in their chambers, staring at her hands. They wouldn't stop shaking.

The door creaked open behind her.

Luca entered slowly. His black shirt clung to his body, damp from the rain. His jaw was clenched tight, but it wasn't anger she saw. It was restraint. Pain. Guilt. Conflict.

He locked the door behind him neither of them spoke.

  • The Mafia’s heir’s bride    Alessia the mafia’s heir’s bride — THE END

    The place breathes smoke and chaos as the night folds in on itself. Luca stands with his gun raised, chest heaving, eyes burning with fury .Donato and Princess Elowen stand behind him, dust clinging to their clothes, the air tense enough to snap.Lorenzo smirks, blood dripping down his brow, gun aimed straight at the woman on black hat."Any last words for the master of the game , and the smarter one who wins at the end ?.she said and raised her face up….. It is seraphina .Her lips curve, painted in a poison-red that glows even in the dim light. The shadows behind her crawl like living creatures as her men storm in. A rope shoots across the room, snatching every gun from every hand in a single, violent sweep.Luca's weapon is ripped from him. Donato's too. Even Lorenzo's pistol spins in the air like it recognizes a new master.Seraphina lifts her chin, smiling with the confidence of someone who has returned from death itself.The witch's deal has healed her and other affected per

  • The Mafia’s heir’s bride    The Eclipse of the red moon blood 2

    The night had already turned red.Not metaphorically — literally red, as though the sky above the ruins bled into the earth. Smoke curled like veins of fire, the wind carrying the metallic scent of danger. The ground trembled with the weight of everything unraveling.Romeo's fingers were inches from the black book about to set ablaze when....THUD.A boot slammed brutally into his spine. His scream tore out, sharp and short, as his body was launched forward. He hit his head hard on a stone and passed out.The black book flew from his hand, spinning wildly before crashing onto the dirt, skidding directly toward Donato.Donato gasped, blood pouring down his thigh like a leaking river. His jaw locked in agony, but he dragged himself forward on his elbows. Every move cut fire through his leg, but he didn't care. That book was the Morano destiny—his destiny—and he refused to die without holding it again.The sky pulsed crimson. A strange heat coiled through the air.Luca's heart hamme

  • The Mafia’s heir’s bride    The Eclipse of the red moon blood

    The Morano mansion had never felt this silent.Its corridors usually breathed with the footsteps of guards, the low hum of generators, the murmured orders of men trained to kill for the family. But tonight, silence wrapped around the walls like a shroud unnatural, heavy, too still for a house that belonged to the most feared bloodline on the western coast.Alessia felt it long before the pain started.She stood at the balcony of the east wing, fingers gripping the railing, her breath fogging the night air as she watched the taillights of Luca, Donato, and Romeo's Cars fade beyond the wrought-iron gates. They left in a rush—too fast, too tense—answering a call that smelled of danger. The mission to Averia City was supposed to be quick, surgical. Recover their son and his stolen heart, take back what belonged to Morano blood, and return before dawn.But the moment the gates clanged shut, something inside Alessia twisted.Something cold....Something warning.Behind her, Daisy hovered

  • The Mafia’s heir’s bride    The Betrayal written in shadows

    The knock came again…..Soft, slow and too deliberate for an intruder, too familiar for a stranger.Donato rose from the leather sofa, shoulders stiff, jaw tightened with a dread no one had ever seen him carry. Luca and Romeo exchanged confused glances—because Donato Morano was a man who feared nothing. Not bullets, not death, not the ghosts of the family he had buried.But this knock… It hollowed the room.Alessia tightened her arms around herself, sensing something cold pressing through the air. Daisy stood beside her, hands trembling lightly despite her effort to hide it. The mansion suddenly felt too quiet, too breathless.Donato reached the door.His fingers brushed the handle—then he paused, whispering so quietly Luca almost missed it. "….it can't be."But he opened the door anyway and there was nothing.No footsteps, no shadow, no wind and no sign of life at all.Just the long, silent hallway stretching into darkness.He stood frozen, staring into the emptiness like he was s

  • The Mafia’s heir’s bride    The Night the game shifted

    The wind outside wailed like a trapped animal, scraping its sorrow against the jagged stone. But inside, the cold silence was sharper—an assassin wearing stillness as a mask.Lorenzo moved through the cavern with the precision of a man born from shadow. A single lantern burned on the wooden table, its flame trembling as though afraid of him. The faint light revealed the array he had laid out: three vials of ink-black liquid, a map of the city carved into leather, and a list of names written in his own blood.Names that would not live to see the Red Moon Eclipse.He dragged a gloved finger over the list, stopping on the first name.Bianca…..He didn't smile, he didn't need to. His silence said everything."She thinks she can play me," he murmured, voice low and velvet-dark. "She thinks she knows the rules of this war…"He dipped his finger into one of the vials and made a swift stroke across her name."But she doesn't realize I'm rewriting them."His footsteps echoed as he crossed to

  • The Mafia’s heir’s bride    When revenge breaths

    The cave breathed like a living thing. Very cold, wet and cruel.The dripping water echoed in rhythmic intervals, each drop like a countdown to someone's ruin. Lorenzo sat on the cracked stone throne at the very back of the cavern, hood pulled low over his face, shadow slicing across the sharp line of his jaw. His fingers toyed with the small vial of blackened liquid beside him—seraphina's fate, and the first step in his rising storm.He tilted his head, listening to the distant moan of the wind funneling through the cave's mouth. His lips curled, not in amusement but in calculation."It worked," he murmured, voice low, velvet-wrapped poison. "Seraphina is down, her panic will shake her soldiers defenses…. Distraction one."He leaned his head back and exhaled slowly, as though savoring the taste of victory—quiet, controlled, patient.But his eyes hidden beneath the hood burned the color of a man who'd lost everything and decided the world would pay for it."Alessia"….. His voice al
