LOGINLove was the only part of me untouched by blood. The moment she screamed my name, that too was taken. I searched for her in every shadow. Now that I have her again… I’ll burn the world before I let her go — Jairo Vitale
View MoreThe road ahead was long, cold, and eerily quiet. Jairo gripped the steering wheel, his eyes fixed forward as he pressed on the accelerator.
He was going to tell her today. He took a right turn, and his gaze flicked to the pink box on the passenger seat. She was going to love it. The color was as innocent as her. Pure and surreal. The dormitory was silent when he arrived. School had gone on holiday two days ago, but she had stayed behind because of him — to spend more time together while he planned to tell her who he truly was: heir to a Mafia empire. If she wanted to stay by his side forever, she needed to know what it meant to become the Mafia Queen. He just needed five years. That’s all he needed to take over the empire and build a world safe enough for her. He entered the elevator with the pink box, and reached her floor. Arriving at her door, he paused, noticing it was slightly ajar. His pulse quickened as he carefully pushed it open, only to see a trail of blood drops on the floor, leading to a blood stained pink cardigan. He dropped the pink box without thinking and rushed forward to grab the cardigan. It was hers. He tore through the room in a panic. Most of her roommates were gone, and the silence pressed in. “Emilia!” he shouted, bursting out of the room. He pulled out his phone to dial her number, but her phone started ringing from inside the room. He ran through the hallway, desperate, before a muffled scream pierced the air. He didn’t think twice. He followed the sound, his heart thundering in his chest. It was coming from the second elevator. “Emilia?!” He slammed his fists on the closed elevator doors, shouting her name, cursing under his breath as he continued to press the buttons. He didn’t waste time going to the other elevator. He turned and bolted down the stairs, two steps at a time, praying for his instincts to be wrong. Then he reached the bottom. And froze in horror. There she was. Inside a black car, banging her fists against the window. Tear-streaked. Terrified. “Emilia!” he roared, his voice ripping from his throat. Fear. Pain. Anguish. Everything hit him all at once. He sprinted toward the car as it began to move. His fingers instinctively searched his pockets for his car keys only to realize they must have fallen back in the room. He picked up his pace and ran faster. Her eyes met his through the back window. She was screaming his name. Then a masked man appeared beside her and jabbed a syringe into her neck. Jairo watched helplessly as her body went limp, slumping into the seat and disappearing from view completely. His heart dropped. “Emilia…” he breathed like a prayer. His foot struck a stone, and he crashed hard onto the ground. Blood had filled his mouth, but he didn’t care. He pushed himself up and kept running, watching as the car disappeared into the distance. There was no plate number. No clue. Nothing but the sound of her voice echoing in his mind.Luci was in her room, straightening her hair and adjusting her outfit when a soft knock came at the door. “Come in,” she called. The door slowly opened and Ann appeared, peeking in with a soft smile. “Good morning, honey. Breakfast is ready,” she said. “Morning. I will be out in a minute,” she finished fixing her hair before heading to the dining room. But when she stepped into the room, she froze mid-step. Her brows furrowed at the sight of a familiar face. He was seated beside Emilia, who smiled at her, motioning for her to join them. “Good morning, dear,” Charlotte greeted warmly as Luci settled down. She returned the greeting to the couple, but her eyes kept drifting back to Kaicus. “Why are you here?” she asked, confusion lacing her voice. “To save my neck,” he replied calmly, picking up a piece of bread as if that were the most normal thing in the world. Luci understood without asking questions but she was surprised that he was in the house. Well, he was a good man to he
The first thing Jairo felt was pain when he woke up. It pressed against his ribs every time he tried to breathe, then came the beeping sounds. His fingers twitched before his eyes opened, reacting on instinct. Kara had been sitting there for hours, long enough for the night to blur into early morning. Her fingers were laced around his hand, when his finger moved against hers, her breath caught sharply in her throat.“Jairo?” she whispered, leaning forward so fast her chair scraped softly against the floor.His eyelids fluttered open slowly, revealing a green so dulled it seemed almost gray, clouded with weakness. Her heart slammed against her chest. She brought her free hand to her mouth, biting down on her knuckles to stop herself from crying out. She had begged God in whispers just to see this moment.He tried to inhale deeper and immediately regretted it as a quiet grunt escaped him.“Easy,” she said quickly, her voice shaking despite her effort to keep it calm. “Don’t move. Plea
As expected, the internet spiraled. It was flooded with theories and Salvatore Vitale’s name trended nonstop, tied to words like cover-up, silencing and attempted murder. The public narrative was already forming, saying Jairo Vitale had been nearly killed after speaking against his father.There was still no concrete evidence but that no longer mattered.What fueled the fire even more was the discovery that the files Jairo had been reading from during the broadcast were completely blank. That single detail convinced the public that someone had tampered with them. It didn’t take long before Salvatore was summoned for questioning.Netizens followed every update closely, dissecting body language and tone. The situation had gone far beyond rumors and people wanted answers.At the charity venue, Ann sat quietly with her phone in hand, scrolling endlessly. Her heart pounded as she searched for familiar names, especially her family's own. She knew this moment would come. She had waited for y
“What?!”Kara’s voice came out sharp and broken at the same time as she answered Donald’s call. The sound alone got everyone startled and concerned. Her fingers trembled as she listened. At first, she couldn’t even process the words. Her heart seemed to tear right through her chest.“Don’t alarm anyone. I will have someone bring you here. We can’t cause panic right now.” Donald warned through the phone but it was already too late.Kara’s lips parted but no sound came out. Tears swelled instantly, blurring her vision. She lowered the phone slowly, her hands shaking so badly it almost slipped from her grip.Ann was already on her feet. “Kara?” she whispered.Before she could speak, before she could even breathe properly, a man approached her. He looked like an ordinary guest but he was one of Jairo’s men.“Ma’am, we need to move now.” he said quietly.Ann stepped forward. “Where are you taking her?”“She’s needed elsewhere. You will be safe here.” the man replied firmly.Kara didn’t ev
