Lucas walked through the grand hallway of his house, his mind racing. The thought of Damian coming for Aurora made his heart pound with excitement. He hadn't felt this alive in years. As he approached Aurora's room, he could hear her faint sobs through the oak door. He smirked, knowing he had to prepare her for their guest.

With a swift turn of the knob, he barged in, and Aurora's tear-stained face raised up to meet his. "Get up," he barked,

Her eyes widened with terror as she rose to her feet, trembling as she took in the sight of Lucas, his eyes gleaming with dark intent. He grabbed a fistful of her hair, yanking her head back to expose her neck. "You're going to perform for me," he said, his breath hot against her skin. "I want Damian to see what you've become."

With a vicious jerk, Lucas began to pull Aurora through the hallway, the maids' gasps with horror in their eyes. She stumbled, her bare feet slipping on the cold floor. Her clothes, once a symbol of her dignity, were no

  • The Mafia's mistress (His temptation)    racing against time 2

    The hospital was cold and quiet, the dim lights making the sterile hallways feel lifeless. Damian stormed through the doors, the vial clenched tightly in his fist. His jaw was set, and his eyes burned with frustration and desperation.He didn’t bother with pleasantries as he approached the doctor who had been treating Aurora. The man looked up from his clipboard, startled by Damian’s sudden appearance.“I have it,” Damian said, his voice sharp and commanding as he held out the vial. “The antidote. Take it. Test it. Do whatever you need to do, but save her.”The doctor took the vial carefully, his brows furrowing as he inspected the clear liquid inside. “Where did you get this?” he asked, his tone cautious.“That doesn’t matter,” Damian snapped. “Just do your job.”The doctor nodded and gestured for Damian to follow him into the lab. Damian’s footsteps echoed loudly in the sterile space as they walked. The sound only seemed to heighten his growing impatience.The doctor set the vial on

  • The Mafia's mistress (His temptation)    A deadly bargain

    The doctor raised his hands in surrender, his face pale and his breathing fast. The syringe in his hand trembled, and he quickly set it down on the nearby table, his movements stiff and nervous. “Don’t shoot,” he said, his voice shaky. “Please, I don’t want any trouble.”Damian stepped closer, his gun steady as he pointed it at the man. The room was dimly lit, and the shadows danced on the walls from the rain outside. Damian’s eyes were cold and filled with rage, his jaw clenched tight. “Trouble found you the second you got involved in this,” he growled.The doctor swallowed hard, his wide eyes darting between Damian and the gun. “I~I don’t know what you’re talking about,” he stammered. “I’m just a doctor. I don’t want any part of this.”“Cut the crap,” Damian snapped, slamming his hand on the table, making the syringe roll slightly. “You know exactly why I’m here. Who sent the poison?”The doctor hesitated, his mouth opening and closing like a fish gasping for air. “I… I don’t know,”

    The man was already there, leaning against a rusted shipping crate, a cigarette dangling from his mouth. He looked as if he'd seen better days, his clothes were tattered, and his eyes held a world-weariness that spoke of countless battles with society."You've got the info," Damian barked, not bothering with pleasantries.The man took a long breathe, the cigarette burning red before he flicked it into the water. "I do," he said, his voice gravelly. "But it's going to cost you.""What do you want?" Damian's voice was desperate, the rain soaking his hair and running down his face in drops.The man grinned, a cold, calculating smile that sent shivers down his spine. "The same thing you want. Revenge. Lucas's head on a silver platter.""Fine," Damian said, his voice filled with disgust. "What do you know about the poison?"The man pulled a small vial from his pocket, holding it up to the dim moonlight. Inside, a thick, black liquid sloshed around, ominous and deadly. "It's a rare toxin, d

    Minutes turned into hours, and still, no one came out to give him an update. The sterile smell of the hospital was suffocating him, reminding him of every second that ticked by with Aurora fighting for her life. The sound of the rain had faded, but the storm inside him raged on. He needed to do something, anything, to get rid of the helplessness that was eating away at him.As he was about to storm into the emergency room, a nurse, her eyes filled with pity, stepped out. "Sir, you can't go in there," she said, her voice gentle but firm."What's happening to her?" he demanded, his voice strained with desperation."The doctors are doing everything they can," she replied, her expression tight. "But she's in critical condition. You need to prepare for the worst."Damian felt his world crumble around him. He slammed his fist into the wall, the pain in his knuckles a mere echo of what he felt in his heart.The hours passed with agonizing slowness, each second a lifetime of dread and guilt.

    The tension in the room grew thicker than the fog outside, as the two men stood there, locked in a silent battle of wills, each waiting for the other to make the first move. Aurora's breaths grew shallower, her eyes fading as the pressure on her throat increased.And then, just as suddenly as it had begun, the sound of gunfire erupted through the air. One of Lucas's guards burst through the door, his weapon smoking, his eyes wide with panic. He aimed directly at Damian, but before he could fire, the gun jerked in his hand, and two bullets flew through the air, one landing itself on the floor and the other lodging itself in Aurora's shoulder.Her scream echoed through the ballroom, the pain searing through her body like a white hot knife. Blood spurted from the wound, painting the floor with her own blood. Damian's eyes went wide with horror, and his hand moved with speed to aim the gun at the guard, firing without hesitation. The guard's body jerked, and he crumpled to the ground, li
