The Vengeful Mafia Kings’ Property 104: Engagement
Adriana’s POVThe car door shut in the way that made your heart hitch without knowing exactly why. The SUV was dim and cool inside. I was still reeling from the way Rafael had stared at me just moments ago. That look with tight jaw, clenched fists and the quiet devastation in his eyes like he was holding back from saying something that would change everything and it was burned into my brain. But he said nothing. Not one word or even a compliment. He just stood there like a statue carved out of restraint and let Nathan lead me away while he remained outside not even following in the same vehicle. I thought we had an understanding after yesterday?I frowned, settling into the plush leather seat as the SUV pulled out. Anthony was in the front passenger side, his head tilted toward the windoew but I could feel the shift in his energy the second I let out a quiet sigh. He glanced over his shoulder and caught my eyes through the mirror."Don't overthink it.” He said plainly like it was tha
The Vengeful Mafia Kings’ Property 103: Confident flame
Rafael’s POVAdriana stepped into the courtyard like fire through darkness. And just like that everything stopped moving entirely. I didn’t hear the guards beside me anymore because their voices dropped to nothing. My gaze found her instantly as if it had been waiting for her all along.Emerald.That dress was a fucking weapon. It clung to her in a way that wasn’t just elegant but is sinful. The color was rich and deep like envy and desire swen together. The sleeves barely sat on her shoulders and the neckline dipped low enough to make my throat dry and the way it flared at her waist it made her look untouchable and regal. Like fucking queen. And that hair. Her hair was the color of fire twisted up into a softy almost careless knot but I knew better. Nothing about her tonight was careless. Every detail had been chosen to disarm and mesmerize then remind the world and me exactly what had been hidden behind grief and silence for far too long.My hands fisted at my sides before I could
The Vengeful Mafia Kings’ Property 102: A Goddess
Adriana’s POVI didn’t think I’d be speechless at the sight of myself, not after everything I’ve lived through. But there I was standing in front of the mirror in a room I had barely stepped foot into before this morning utterly and completely without words.Madam Corvina was nowhere in sight now after she’s finished her kob. Her assistants had scurried off after the final tug and pin and last spritz of perfume. The room was empty except for me and my reflection.And God I didn’t even have thoughts. Not proper ones.The woman looking back at me wasn’t someone I recognized. And yet somehow, she was me. She had my red hair, piled loosely into an elegant twist, a few soft strands falling like deliberate rebellion against the sculpted perfection. She had my eyes that were wide and uncertain. My lips painted a shade darker than I would have ever dared to choose. But it wasn’t just makeup or fabric that made her look breathtaking. It was the quiet power in her stance. The kind of beauty t
The Vengeful Mafia Kings’ Property 101: More mystery
Rafael’s POVI froze bevause i hadn’t been hugged in years maybe. Not like that and not by someone who just wanted to with no motive behind it. I stood stiffly for a second then let myself relax just enough to wrap my arms back around her gently and careful not to ruin whatever joy she was carrying.She pulled back just as quickly and ran out of the room, light as a breeze as if she hadn’t just knocked the air out of my lungs. There was something about that hug that I want to relive every moment of. I stared at the door for a long time after Isabella had left still feeling her arms around me. And as I stood there oddly still my eyes drifted again to the pink comb she’d forgotten on the edge of the piano. I picked it up, turning it over between my fingers, wondering why it felt like more than just a comb. Maybe it was nothing. Or maybe it was something strange and dangerous blooming inside me anx some part of me that wanted to protect that girl with the midnight hair and bright eyes
The Vengeful Mafia Kings’ Property 100: Hug
Rafael’s POVI’d been walking around the estate with Nathan and Anthony since early morning just making sure everything was exactly the way it should be. I didn’t leave things to chance. Not when the ball was only hours away and not when we had certain names on our guest list. The staff were working fast as the grand chandelier had already been cleaned twice and the crystal was gleaming like it was made of stars. White lilies and deep red roses lined the hallways. Tables were being arranged under the guidance of a tight faced event planner who reminded me of a military commander more than anything else. Everything was moving and everyone was exactly where they should be. There is going to be an after party here after I have been announced the new capo dei capi in Romano’s mansion. Nathan had a clipboard in his hand (of course he did) and he was flipping through checklists like the paper offended him. He was muttering about caterers being late last year and how if that happened agai
The Vengeful Mafia Kings’ Property 99: Karma
Adriana’s POVThe heavy clock on the wall chimed then once, twice, three times and the realization hit me. The ball was tonight.In just a few short hours, I would be expected to transform from whatever battered version of myself still remained into something dazzling enough to pass inspection under a hundred cold curious eyes. I was expected to glide into that ballroom as if I belonged there, as if my heart wasn’t still in pieces beneath my ribs and as if I hadn’t once loved a man who had chosen ambition and betrayal over me.My fingers curled slightly at my sides, nails digging into the soft flesh of my palms. The old fear, the old shame, tried to rise in me but I pushed it down with a force that surprised even myself. Tonight, I would not give them the satisfaction of seeing me bleed.Without another word, I turned on my heel and left the room with the hem of my robe following against the floor, my head held high even as my stomach twisted itself into tighter and tighter knots.T
The Vengeful Mafia Kings’ Property 98: Madam Corvina
Adriana’s POVThe house seemed to shift the moment Madame Corvina arrived. I felt it before I heard the first sharp clicks of her heels on the marble. Even the light filtering through the tall windows seemed harsher somehow slicing into the room like a blade, picking out every flaw and every imperfection. I didn’t give a damn thiugh. Anna was already there as usual witj her arms folded neatly across her chest and a slight smile playing at the corner of her mouth like she was anticipating a show. She didn’t look at me but shedidn’t need to. Her satisfaction filled the room like a perfume. The doors opened wide with a low groan and there she was. Madame Corvina entered into the room like a storm iwth her black dress flowing behind her. She was taller than I expected with sharp cheekbones that could have been carved from stone and eyes so dark they seemed to devour the light around them. Her hair was pinned back in an intricate coil, not a single strand out of place and around her nec
The Vengeful Mafia Kings’ Property 97: Too late
Adriana’s POVAfter Anna's interruption there was no peace left. The sense of waiting wrapped itself around me tighter each minute stretching longer than the last and i couldn’t sit still. I couldn't bear the thought of waiting in silence, trapped inside my own restless skin. I slipped out of Isabella’s room and wandered aimlessly letting my feet carry me down the familiar hallways until the rich amd warm scent of coffee lured me toward the kitchen like a thread pulling me forward.The kitchen wasn’t empty, of course and i guess Nothing in this house ever was. Anthony stood by the window staring out into the gardens with an expression I couldn’t quite read. The morning light cut across his profile throwing half his face into shadow and the line of his jaw sharp amd the tension in his shoulders obvious even from across the room. He turned when he heard my footsteps, his mouth tugging into that crooked easy smile he wore like armor."Trouble sleeping, princess?" He teased lightly bu
The Vengeful Mafia Kings’ Property 96: Queen’s kingdom
Adriana’s POV The bed felt too big without him as I stirred in the tangled sheets that has his scent lingering still clinging to the air. A sigh left me as I pushed myself up on one elbow. The sheet fell away from my chest and a shiver ran through me despite the warmth of the morning. The marks he left on my skin with his hands and his mouth and his teeth felt like they were still there. Like a proof of how easily we slipped back into each other’s orbitsno matter how wrong we both knew is was. Dragging the sheet around me, I climbed out of bed my bare feet brushing the cold floor. I padded softly across the room the hem of the mattress trailing behind me and pulled aside the curtain just enough to peer down into the courtyard. The glass was cool as I leaned closer squinting against the brightness of the morning. That’s when I saw them Rafael and another woman. Elegantly beautiful woman thay looks so familiar even from this place. They stood too close for my liking though, i
