All Chapters of Contracted to the Mafia Boss Leonardo De Luca: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Leonardo At the top of the stairs, I sighed. Why was I on that floor? With the excitement of the kitchen, my feet had taken me in the wrong direction. I could have used the bedroom I kept on the same floor for convenience, but that was not what I had planned. I walked to Olivia's door and tried to knock but my hand stopped mid air. It was past midnight, and what would I say if she opened the door? I was well within my rights to demand to see her whenever I felt like it, but still…that stupid contract; it felt like a mockery. I crunched against the door and thought about budging in there and waking her up. Who was this pathetic person? I didn't recognize myself anymore. I was Leonardo De Luca. I took what I wanted without asking. I squeezed my eyes shut and wiped them with my hand. That was before she crawled under my skin. Olivia Despite the nerves and everything that happened around me, I got some decent sleep. After checking that my room was in a spotless condition, I alwa

Leonardo The rest of the lunch sailed by smoothly, with Olivia fidgeting like a cold puppy. I knew that the marriage proposal was a shock to her, but if things went the way I had planned, we wouldn’t have to pretend for long and will be both out of it sooner than expected. I pressed the ignition button, and the car came to life with a roar of the powerful horse engine it was. I seldom had the time to move around without one or two of my man following me, but when it happened, I made the most of it. “Can I ask you something?” Olivia said from the passenger seat as I navigated my way out of the parking lot. I threw a glance at her, “Shot.” “Why are you doing this?” “Doing what?” “Why do we need to get married?” If I knew the answer to that question, I wouldn’t be where I was. I inhaled. “I told you, you don’t have to worry about it; it will only be on paper and won’t affect our arrangement” Who was I kidding? My feelings confused me and my thought pr

OliviaAt first, the wedding was going to happen in a matter of days, but Leonardo changed his mind. He said he was giving me some ‘time’ to prepare for the big day, but I suspected he wanted to make it as special as he could for both of us.In the weeks that followed, Leonardo’s mother came in full force with the wedding preparations. She seemed genuinely happy at the idea of us getting married, even though she had been rooting for Anna.Zera had gone back to her house and was only expected to return a few days before the wedding, a date that was fast approaching.Leonardo was in and out of the house. He and Stanley had more ‘private’ meetings in his study, and I didn’t need to guess what the agenda of their meetings was.Guilt chirped away at me every night when I looked at Leonardo’s face as he came to bed and the line on his forehead protruded from the stress he was facing.“Don’t wait for me,” Leo said as he finished his meal. We were having a quiet dinner, just the two of us. C

Olivia When Leonardo woke me up, I couldn't help but panic. I wondered if he already knew about my latest fuck up. But the man only wanted us to watch the sunrise together, no one would believe that Leonardo could be that kind of a man. If anyone had told me about this version of him, I would have laughed in their face. I wasn't laughing as I laid my head against his chest so I wouldn't be able to look at his face and see all his emotions on full display and be reminded of what I had done. Leonardo was the most powerful person I knew in the city, his power was not loud and flashy, but it was subtle, for an outsider like me, I hadn't even known that people like him existed until I had come into the fold. Now I had betrayed him, not only once but twice over and he didn't have a single clue about it. I felt bad for judging my father when he borrowed money from the wrong crowd and dragging me into this but looking at my choices, I was just as bad if not worse. Because anyone w

Olivia The following morning came fast and furious, as I was awakened by a knock at the door.The previous night, I had stayed awake for the most part of the night, waiting for Leonardo to come back into my room, but nothing happened, until sleep took over in the early hours of the morning. Now there was a knock at the door, I sat still hoping that whoever it was, would assume I was sleeping and go away. But the door opened and Rosa came into the room holding a tray of food. She looked around the room with a mixed expression on her face at the shattered pieces of glass but she said nothing. “Rosa, I'm so happy to see you.” I said, getting off the bed and walking towards her, I felt a sense of relief flood over me in her presence. “It's good to see you miss.” Rosa was kind but a bit reserved compared to her usual self. It was as though she wanted to go about her business as quietly as she could. I didn't know what to say so I walked to the door, hoping to catch up with her. Anyt
