Falling For My Mafia Lord のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

DanteThe last thing or rather the last person I expected to see was Kate. And that in Aria's school. I didn't know why she was here and what she was telling Aria's schoolteacher. She doesn't have an ounce of shame if I may add. I clearly warned her not to show her face to me ever again. But here she was trying to act as if she knew it all. I ignored my phone vibrating inside my pant pocket. Nicholas had done enough forcing in making me to appear in Aria's school. I don't think I would have the patience to hear what gibberish orders he would say to me. I couldn't sleep a wink last night because of Aria. She wouldn't stop crying no matter how much Arthur and Biance tried to comfort her. She kept on calling for Kate. As someone who isn't patient enough, I lashed out at her and told her Kate wasn't going to come back. Little did I know that would end me up wide awake. I don't know how someone can go hours crying. Even this morning, it was a tough time before Bianca managed to get her r

KateHow can someone be this handsome? I said inside my head as I stared at the sleeping Dante. Even though the light reflecting in the room was little his face was still glowing. I found myself wanting to stare at him for a longer time. The urge to trail my fingers over his face grew. I slowly stretched my hand and gently caressed his brow. He has a thick brow for an arrogant person like him. I went down to his nose to his lips. My heart quickened up at the memories of last night. Who would expect I would give in easily like that? After hauling insults at each other, we ended up being in each other’s skin. Dante’s eyelid shook making me to move back and close my eyes. How do I face him after all this? “Better open your eyes. I know you're awake.” Came his deep voice which didn't resist making my stomach churned. I started by opening one eye and I found Dante leaning a bit too close to my face. I planned to roll over to the floor even if I would end up in pain. However, I didn't g

KateI stood by the door with my eyes locked on Kate's, waiting for her to defend herself. It felt satisfying to catch her right in the act, her mouth hanging open but no words coming out. "Of course she had nothing to say" I thought to myself. She'd been caught red-handed, hurling insults at me.Normally, I wouldn't tolerate disrespect from anyone, irrespective of whom they're, but Kate was different. When she pushed my buttons, I found it difficult to punish her. Instead, I preferred to teach her a lesson in a more... pleasurable way.Standing and staring into her eyes made me remember last night's encounter. The way my name rolled off her lips, the way she surrendered to my touch... It was exhilarating. I'd consistently told myself I'd get over it, that sleeping with the same woman wasn't my style. But Kate had a hold on me. The way she satisfied me was addictive, making me crave her even more. But my thoughts were finally interrupted by Bianca's voice, snapping me back to reality

KateA part of me was happy with the new information from Gabe, but another part of me wanted to dig further and discover the truth."What do we do now?" Gina asked."We'll strategize and dig deeper. There's more to this." Gabe replied confidently."Exactly." I succumbed. "Gabe, Keep searching till you get more details." I instructed him. I knew I could always count on him to deliver well."Sure I'll do just that." He responded."Let's call it a day then." I suggested and they agreed. I stood up and walked out of the meeting room with Gina, feeling relief that our discussion with Gabe had come to a close. Gabe respectfully excused himself, leaving the two of us alone."Hey, want to grab some coffee at my place?" Gina asked, smiling."Sure" I nodded in agreement. We went over to her place, and we spent the next few hours chatting and laughing together. It was just what I needed – some quality time with my best friend.Later in the day, I said my goodbyes to Gina and headed home. The mo

KateI froze the moment his words hit me."You haven't told me why you were in my room last night."Damn it.My fingers twitched at my sides, and for a second, I couldn't breathe. My pulse roared in my ears like a storm refusing to calm. I had hoped—naively—that he wouldn't bring it up. That he'd be too distracted by his ego or the memory of last night to care why I had slipped into his room in the first place.Slowly, I turned, careful not to meet his eyes. I couldn't. Not when my face was still burning from the cocky way he'd said "It'll happen again." As if I had no control. As if he already owned me.He didn't. He couldn't."I told you," I said quietly, "Bianca asked me to bring something and I... I must have stepped into the wrong room."It was a terrible lie. One that even I didn't believe.But I had to say something—anything—that didn't sound like I was searching for something in his drawers like a goddamn thief.I could feel his stare on me, sharp. I hated how it made my skin
