Raphael walked quickly through the hallways, his chest tightening with worry. Damian’s condition had been bad earlier, but something inside Raphael told him it wasn’t just a passing sickness. He pushed the door to Damian’s room open and hurried inside.

Damian was still lying on the bed, his face pale and his shirt soaked with sweat. His breathing was shallow, and his hands twitched slightly, as if he were fighting an invisible battle in his sleep.

“Damian,” Raphael muttered under his breath, moving closer to the bed. “You’ve always been tough, brother. Don’t you dare give up now.”

As he leaned over Damian, the sound of hurried footsteps made Raphael turn sharply. The door opened, and Luna appeared, her face full of worry.

“Who are you?” Raphael demanded, his tone sharp.

Luna hesitated at the door, bowing her head quickly. “I’m Luna, sir, I believe we've met before but it's okay not to remember me” she said softly. “I... I work here as one of the maids.”

“What are you doing here?” Raph

  • The Mafia's mistress (His temptation)    home coming

    Raphael was sitting in the living room of Damian’s mansion, leaning back in the large chair. The morning light spilled through the windows, and the house was quiet. He tapped his fingers on the armrest, thinking about the events of the past few days.His phone suddenly rang, breaking the silence. He reached into his pocket and pulled it out, glancing at the screen. It was the hospital.“Hello?” Raphael answered, sitting up straight.“Mr. Raphael?” the voice on the other end said. “This is Dr. Morgan from the hospital. I’m calling to inform you that Damian is ready to be discharged.”Raphael raised an eyebrow. “He’s ready?” he asked.“Yes,” the doctor confirmed. “He has shown good improvement. He is stable now, and he can leave. We just need someone to pick him up.”“I’ll be there soon,” Raphael said before hanging up the call.He stood up, grabbing his keys from the table. As he walked toward the door, a maid passed by. “I’m going to the hospital to pick up Damian,” he told her.“Yes,

  • The Mafia's mistress (His temptation)    A promise convince

    Raphael stood outside his room, leaning against the door for a moment. His mind was racing with thoughts of Luna. She was different, and he couldn’t deny the strange pull he felt toward her. After taking a deep breath, he pushed open the door and stepped inside.“Luna,” he called out softly.Luna, who had been arranging the pillows on his bed, turned around quickly. “Yes, sir?” she asked, her voice polite but filled with confusion.“Come here,” Raphael said, gesturing toward the chair near the window.Luna hesitated for a moment before walking over. She sat down slowly, her hands resting in her lap. “Is everything okay, sir?” she asked nervously.Raphael pulled a chair closer and sat down in front of her. He looked at her for a long moment, his expression thoughtful. “I want to talk to you about something,” he said finally.Luna tilted her head slightly, her heart beating faster. “About what?” she asked.Raphael leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees. “I’ve never been in a re

  • The Mafia's mistress (His temptation)    A family's lies

    Mr. Davenport walked into Mr. Wolfe’s study with heavy steps. The room was large and intimidating, the walls lined with bookshelves and expensive artwork. Wolfe sat behind his grand desk, his sharp eyes fixed on Davenport as he entered.“Davenport,” Wolfe said, his tone cold. “Have a seat.”Davenport hesitated but eventually sat down across from him. His hands were clammy, and he rubbed them nervously on his trousers.“Thank you for seeing me,” Davenport began, trying to keep his voice steady.Wolfe leaned back in his chair, his expression unreadable. “What do you want?” he asked bluntly.Davenport cleared his throat, shifting uncomfortably. “It’s about our children’s marriage,” he said carefully. “I believe... it’s not working out. Perhaps we should consider ending it before things get worse.”Wolfe raised an eyebrow but said nothing, waiting for him to continue.“You see,” Davenport continued, “Lina hasn’t been happy. And Damian, well, he doesn’t seem interested in making this marri

  • The Mafia's mistress (His temptation)    madam Catherine's advice

    Luna had just returned to the main hall after escorting Raphael to his room. She was still thinking about his strange questions when she felt a hand grab her arm gently. She turned to see Madam Catherine standing there, her eyes sharp but not unkind.“Luna,” Madam Catherine said, her voice low. “Come with me for a moment.”Luna blinked, confused. “Is something wrong, ma’am?” she asked hesitantly.“Not at all,” Madam Catherine said with a small smile. “I just want to talk to you. Come.”Luna followed her to a quiet corner of the hall, away from the other maids. Madam Catherine turned to face her, folding her arms across her chest.“Now,” she began, her eyes scanning Luna’s face, “what’s going on between you and Mr. Raphael?”Luna’s eyes widened in shock. “Between me and Mr. Raphael?” she repeated, her voice filled with confusion. “Nothing, ma’am. I don’t understand what you mean.”Madam Catherine raised an eyebrow, a knowing smile on her lips. “Don’t play innocent with me, child,” she

  • The Mafia's mistress (His temptation)    a curious conversation

    The evening air was cool and peaceful, the garden lit by soft lanterns that cast a warm glow over the neatly trimmed bushes and colorful flowers. Luna followed Raphael as he walked ahead, his hands in his pockets. She felt nervous, unsure of why he had asked her to come with him.“Is something wrong, sir?” Luna asked softly, her voice breaking the quiet.Raphael glanced back at her and smiled, shaking his head. “No, nothing is wrong,” he said. “I just thought we could talk. It’s nice out here, don’t you think?”Luna nodded, though she still felt a little uneasy. “Yes, it’s very beautiful,” she said, looking around at the garden.They walked in silence for a while, the sound of their footsteps on the stone path the only noise. Luna couldn’t help but feel nervous. Raphael had been acting differently lately, and it confused her.Finally, Raphael stopped near a bench under a large tree. He gestured for her to sit down. “Let’s rest here for a bit,” he said.Luna hesitated but nodded, sitti

  • The Mafia's mistress (His temptation)    A meeting of fate

    Mr. Davenport sat in his office, the phone in his hand. His fingers tapped nervously against the desk as he thought about what he needed to say. He couldn’t shake the guilt in his chest. His daughter, Lina, was in deep trouble, and he needed help to clean up the mess she had made.Taking a deep breath, he dialed Mr. Wolfe’s number. The line rang for a few seconds before Wolfe’s deep voice answered.“This is Wolfe,” the voice said, firm and commanding.“Mr. Wolfe, this is Davenport,” he said, his voice slightly shaking. “I hope I’m not calling at a bad time.”“Not at all,” Wolfe replied, though his tone was cold. “What can I do for you?”Mr. Davenport cleared his throat, trying to steady his nerves. “I need to meet with you,” he said. “There’s something important I want to discuss.”Wolfe was silent for a moment, and the pause made Davenport’s stomach twist. Finally, Wolfe spoke.“I see,” he said, his voice calm but unreadable. “As it happens, I’ve been meaning to speak with you as wel
