Morning sunlight streamed through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the room. Aurora stirred, her hand resting on her growing belly. Damian was lying beside her, his arm draped protectively over her waist. She smiled softly, enjoying the peaceful moment.

Just as she was about to shift closer to him, Damian’s phone buzzed on the nightstand, shattering the calm. His eyes blinked open, groggy and reluctant, but he reached for the phone. “Hello?” he answered, his voice deep with sleep.

Aurora watched him, her smile fading as she noticed the way his expression changed. His brows furrowed, his jaw tightened, and his lips pressed into a thin line.

“What do you mean?” Damian’s voice was sharp now, all traces of sleep gone.

Aurora sat up, concern filling her. “Damian, what’s wrong?”

He didn’t answer immediately, still listening to the person on the other end of the line. “Fine,” he said finally. “I’ll handle it.” He hung up and placed the phone back on the nightstand with a heavy sigh.

  • The Mafia's mistress (His temptation)    first moments

    The door to Aurora’s hospital ward opened suddenly, and Raphael strode in, his face lighting up as he saw the peaceful atmosphere inside. His eyes landed on Damian, who was standing near the bed with the baby in his arms, and then shifted to Aurora, who was still resting. Luna, who stood nearby, turned toward Raphael with a bright smile.“Raphael,” Luna called softly, walking over to him. Without hesitation, she hugged him warmly. “Look, isn’t the baby beautiful?” she asked, her voice filled with excitement.Raphael smiled down at her, his hands gently resting on her shoulders. “Yes,” he said with a soft chuckle. “She’s perfect. A tiny little miracle.” He paused, his teasing grin returning. “What about you, Luna? Do you want one?”Luna’s cheeks flushed a deep pink, and she quickly looked away. “Raphael!” she exclaimed, swatting his arm playfully. “Stop teasing.”Damian, who had been quietly watching the exchange, smirked. “Raphael, leave her alone,” he said, though there was amusement

  • The Mafia's mistress (His temptation)    First breath

    Damian paced the hospital hallway, his hands clasped tightly behind his back. His heart raced with a mix of anticipation and anxiety. He barely noticed the passing nurses or the sound of footsteps around him. All he could think about was Aurora and their baby.A nurse walked toward him, her face kind but professional. She stopped in front of him and placed a gentle hand on his arm. “Mr. Wolfe,” she said softly, “please sit down. Everything is under control. Aurora is strong.”Damian stopped pacing and looked at her, his expression unreadable. “I can’t sit,” he said, his voice tense. “I need to know that they’re both okay.”The nurse gave him a reassuring smile. “The doctors are doing their best. I promise, you’ll see them soon.”He nodded slightly but remained standing, his body still filled with restless energy. He turned his gaze back to the door of the delivery room, his heart pounding.Finally, the door opened, and the doctor stepped out. His face lit up with a broad smile as he a

  • The Mafia's mistress (His temptation)     a conversation twenty years over due

    Taylor stepped out of the hospital, the cool air brushing against his face as he pulled out his phone. His mind was still racing from his encounter with Damian, but there was another loose end he needed to address. After all these years, it was time.He scrolled through his contacts and dialed a number he hadn’t called in over two decades. As the line rang, he steadied himself. Finally, a voice picked up.“Hello?” came a hesitant voice. It was her. Aurora’s mother.Taylor paused for a moment, his throat tightening. Then he spoke, his voice deep and firm. “It’s me.”The other end went silent, and he could almost hear the confusion through the phone. “Who is this?” she asked cautiously.“It’s Taylor,” he said simply, his tone carrying the weight of years. “We need to talk.”There was a sharp intake of breath on her end. “Taylor?” she repeated, disbelief thick in her voice. “Taylor, as in Aurora’s father?”“Yes,” he replied, his tone clipped. “It’s me.”“What do you want?” she asked, her

  • The Mafia's mistress (His temptation)    A delicate truce

    Taylor stepped out of the room where his blood had been drawn, his movements calm and deliberate. The sight of him immediately sent a wave of anger through Damian, who was standing across the hall, his arms crossed tightly over his chest. The hatred in Damian's eyes was unmistakable, burning like a flame that refused to die.Taylor caught the look, but he didn’t flinch. Instead, he walked closer, his steps steady, his expression unreadable. When he stopped in front of Damian, he let out a long sigh. “You still hold onto that hate,” Taylor said, his voice even.Damian’s jaw clenched, his fists balling at his sides. “You think I shouldn’t?” he growled, his tone low but sharp. “You killed my sister. You destroyed my family.”Taylor raised an eyebrow, his face calm despite Damian’s obvious rage. “And yet,” he said slowly, “here we are. You’ve impregnated my daughter. Tortured her. Manipulated her. Doesn’t that pay for the wrongs I’ve done to your family?”Damian stepped closer, his should

  • The Mafia's mistress (His temptation)    Blood ties

    The hospital was a whirlwind of chaos. Nurses and doctors rushed through the hallways, their voices urgent, their steps quick. Aurora was on a stretcher, her face pale and contorted with pain. Her hands gripped Damian’s tightly, her nails digging into his skin. He didn’t flinch, his eyes locked on her as panic coursed through his veins.“Breathe, Aurora,” Luna said from the other side, holding Aurora’s other hand. Her voice was steady, though her eyes shimmered with worry. “You’re strong. You can do this.”Aurora let out a pained groan, her breaths coming in short, shallow gasps. “It... it hurts,” she managed to say, her voice trembling.“I know,” Luna said softly, brushing a strand of hair from Aurora’s sweat-soaked forehead. “Just keep breathing. We’re here with you.”Damian walked alongside the stretcher, his grip on Aurora’s hand unrelenting. “You’ll be okay,” he said, his voice low but filled with determination. “You’re not alone in this.”The doors to the labor room swung open,

  • The Mafia's mistress (His temptation)    Dark legacy

    Aurora stirred awake in the middle of the night, her hand reaching out instinctively. The bed felt cold and empty, and her brows furrowed as she realized Damian wasn’t beside her. She sat up slowly, brushing her hair out of her face. The room was dim, the moonlight filtering through the curtains, but it offered no answers.“Where could he be?” she murmured to herself.Wrapping a shawl around her shoulders, Aurora swung her legs off the bed and stood, her steps quiet as she made her way out of the room. The house was silent, save for the faint ticking of a distant clock.As she moved through the hallways, her thoughts swirled. It wasn’t like Damian to leave her in the middle of the night. Was he working? Was something wrong? The questions made her heart race slightly.Aurora reached the study and noticed the door was slightly ajar. A faint light spilled out into the hallway, guiding her steps. She pushed the door open gently and paused when she saw him. Damian was slumped over his desk
