The convoy pulled into a heavily guarded compound in Italy. The iron gates slid open, and men with rifles were mounted all over the compound.

Lillian was still shaking, and her chest rose and fell rapidly. When the SUV came to a stop, Alex scanned the whole environment before stretching his hand to Lillian.

She hesitated for some time and then gave in.

He pulled her out gently as if she were a fragile glass, even though everyone around them knew that Alexander Nick treated nothing or no one gently.

They both walked into the mansion. It was filled with luxurious furniture. The chandeliers glowed massively, and the walls were lined with paintings worth more. But none of it comforted Lillian.

Her eyes moved around nervously as she checked out the whole place. Alex noticed the tension was still in her. He always noticed.

“Follow me,” he said.

She nodded and followed him until they reached a private lounge. He closed the door behind her and gestured for her to sit.

“Sit,” he ordered

  • The Mafia’s possession   Chapter 32

    The penthouse dining room was way too fancy. It was all shiny, and the chandelier sparkled. Lillian felt very satisfied, not because of the meal alone but because she was certain that Jessie and Justin were living well.The sun came in through the huge window and made stripes on the floor where Justin played with his toys. The turkey on the table looked like it had been through a rough battle. They had already eaten half of it. There were bowls of salad and a jug of orange juice. “I’m full,” Jessie said, shoving her plate away a long time ago, but Lillian knew that look. Jessie wasn't full. She looked worried. Justin flew his toy over the table, growling in a voice that sounded like a helicopter. He bounced off, and his little toy plopped into Lillian’s water. She gently took it out and wiped it with her napkin. “Easy there, Pilot,” she said, with a grin as she handed the toy over to Justin. Justin's big hazel eyes snapped up to her. He dropped the toy like he had lost interest.

  • The Mafia’s possession   Chapter 31

    Lillian’s POV:Soft, golden morning sunlight filtered through the bedroom's curtains. For a while, I lay there looking up at the ceiling.It's been a week since Alex and I returned from Italy, and I have been seriously training since then with the help of Alex and his bodyguards. My ribs and femur were aching from punching and spending too much time in the gym, but I feel myself getting stronger and more powerful as the day goes by. I sensed kg in my movements, in the way I resisted Marcus's padded knife and stopped flinching when he corrected my movements. I was advancing and making progress. I rolled out of bed and stepped into the running shower. Steam curled around me, the water scalding at first, then cooling as it ran down my back. My hair was dark and heavy against my skin as I tipped my head to let it soak. I tried to keep my mind still and block the noise in my head. The fear, the guilt and the never-ending cycle of what-ifs by closing my eyes. What if Justin hated me f

  • The Mafia’s possession   Chapter 30

    Lillian’s POV:It was a rainy evening, and the car ride was a blur. The sun had already set, and everywhere was becoming dark. My heart skipped a beat when Alex’s hand moved through his jacket to his gun. His eyes were on the rare mirror as he silently watched the black SUV behind us. The driver accelerated at full speed, and the SUV eventually fell back and disappeared in the dark. Alex has made so many enemies that I am very sure he doesn't know which mafia boss is after his life. The thought of everything made my stomach numb, and I felt weak. I couldn't believe that I had been pulled into something I never thought existed. Mafia. We reached the estate after a while, and the iron gate opened. I was so exhausted that I could barely keep my eyes open. My legs were heavy as I dragged myself into the mansion. Alex didn't look at me. He didn't even speak. His focus was on the shadow around us, and he was busy sending signals to all of his bodyguards. I wanted to speak. To ask if

  • The Mafia’s possession   Chapter 29

    The house was silent, and the air was thick. Lillian twisted her door handle and swung the door open. She quickly closed the door once she got inside and sank to the floor. Her back was pressed against the door and her knees drawn to her chest. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she sobbed continuously. She mourned not just for her father but for how life had been unfair to her and her family these past years. And now a single confession had made her world crumble again. Her mind races with thoughts crashing against each other. For months, she had judged Alex and believed that he was the one behind her father’s death so that he would torment her and her family.She hated him for that and also for holding her captive. Diego was the man who killed her father. But the question she could not answer was why?What does my father have to do with all these men? All I knew was that he worked for Alex, and after he died, Alex demanded that all the money my father owed him must be paid. What exa

    The room was quiet and bright. The morning sun reflected into her room. Lillian sank onto the floor, her back against the door, and her arms were wrapped around her knees. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she sobbed bitterly. Alex stood in the kitchen staring at the closed lid; his hand was clenched into a fist. Lillian's sobs made him feel some type of regret, but he kept reminding himself that it wasn't his fault. He had to do what he did to Diego. He was a betrayal and a threat. A man who had destroyed countless lives by embezzling a huge sum of money, including Lillian. He wanted to go to her room to have a word with her, but he knew it would be a waste of time. The fight wasn't over. He knew Diego’s bosses would come for revenge, so he had to be ten steps ahead. The road ahead would be paved with blood and secrets, so he has to stay vigilant.Their suitcases had been packed and stayed by the door while they both sat down for breakfast. Alex had completed his mission in Italy, s

  • The Mafia’s possession   Chapter 27

    Alex’s POV:The walk back to my room felt endless. Torture and killing were not new to me, but tonight it felt different. I felt guilty, as if I had done something wrong. Diego's screams replayed in my head, the way he coughed out blood and the pains in his eyes. The way he spoke about powers bigger than Vincenzo. In a normal situation, this should have given me satisfaction, but here I was with my chest carrying a huge burden and feeling regretful.And then there was Lillian.Her face lingered in my mind. Her quiet and pale face. She hadn't spoken to me; she wouldn't look at my face, nor did she beg me to stop. She had gone silent on me, and the silence is killing me. I opened the door to my room. It was very dark with a little reflection of moonlight. I sat on the edge of the bed with my elbow on my knee, dragging my hands down my face.For the first time in years, I felt remorseful.What have I become? My father wanted strength, and I wanted strength and power. Not this… this mo
