บททั้งหมดของ The Mafia's Lover: บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

 * It's been a month since I moved here, and frankly speaking, it wasn't easier than I had thought it would be. A month ago, Stacy had put some money in my bag, which I was obviously living on but it wasn't going to be enough for me. I eventually took up some part time jobs in the day time and at night I'd drink and participate at an underground fight club. Everyday I'd go home with new bruises since most bets are place on me losing and I had to lose if I wanted to get paid. I fought 4 nights a week and trained like hell after because I didn't want my fighting spirit to die. I also now lived in a really messed up apartment that no matter what I did, it always still smelled like shit. But this was the life I had to adapt to till I die.  It was another Tuesday like any other, Tuesday mixed fight night, so if was luck I'd get to fight a big strong guy, the bets aga

 * "On the night of the exchange, we were double crossed, the men wanted the arms without paying and opened fire on our warehouse, unknown to us, someone on the inside had already supplies them the guns. We fought back of course, but... to save my life... Your father took a bullet for me. I rushed your father to the hospital after the men left but he had lost a lot of blood and needed to be operated on. He fell into a coma right after and I remember, your mother crying for nights on end think your father wouldn't make it. A little after you were born, your father came back to us like a miracle and we were happy again but he was the happiest after meeting you." There was a smile on his face again. "Your Father gave me the greatest honour of my life, to give you a name, I refused but no matter how much I refused he still insisted, your mother also knew what happened that night wasn't my fault so she insisted with her husband that

 * It was already a month after the incident and everyone was still trying to pick up from their loss. Some lost families, brothers, sons, and fathers, it was a tragic night for all. We conducted a special ceremony for them a week later and I could say that it was the saddest day of my life. After the whole event, I just completely shut down, I wasn't eating, speaking to anyone and barely slept, according to Tina, I would just stare at the sky for hours on end. Sometimes, tears would roll down my eyes but not a word would leave my mouth and this got not just her but everyone worried. One evening like any other day, Tina brought my dinner as usual but this time she slammed the tray on the table behind me, I jumped a little but that was it. "Dinner's ready." She said louder than usual and as usual, I ignored her. "How long are

 * "Hello, my name is Stephanie Andrews, the new Consigliere." The room became instantly quiet and it made me nervous because I didn't expect they would receive Stephanie like this. I looked back at Tina and she nodded to reassure me that everything was alright and I didn't have to worry. "I understand your uncomfort with this new change but Miss Andrews has been miss Adira's friend since childhood and also her biggest supporter." Tina started walking towards Stephanie. "I'm sure all of us remember Miss Adira's story, it's a story she shares with all new recruits and a story we all know well." Tina paused and I could see the pain in both she and Steph's eyes. I looked away to avoid tears gather in my eyes. Tina sighed and continued. "Miss Andrews here lost contact with Miss Adira and was to find her by tracing her father, Mr

 * "We found him!" I felt my eyes swell with every passing moment, I looked sharply at Stephanie and I guess she understood since she drowned her drink and nodded back at me. "I need the coordinates now and tell Susan to get the girls ready t-" "They're actually in Area C, close to where you are actually." I heard Francesca say. "Is there any other bar or cafe close by?" I asked the bartender ignoring Francesca. "I-i think there's a small bar a few blocks away from here." She said startled. "Can you pinpoint the exact location, we're leaving now." I said picking up my jacket and Stephanie doing the same. "Call one of the executives here and inform them to get ready, I and Stephanie are already making a move. Also tell everyone back home not to come here, it's too far for them to reach on time, besides I t
