All Chapters of The Mafia's Rebel Wife : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

“Mommy.”I let out a breath I didn’t even know I was holding.The sound of footsteps filled the other end, followed by shuffling, and then Vivian’s voice came through.“Vivian,” I cried out, so relieved I could speak to her—and thankful she saved me from Mariana’s question.“Freya.” Vivian inhaled sharply, her voice tired and heavy.“Vivian, what happened? Where’s Nana?” I probed immediately.Her voice cracked between words. “She... she had a seizure attack. They said she’s stabilized. She just needs rest.”My heart clenched and unclenched.“Okay, okay,” I breathed heavily, my mind reeling from the information.“Freya, when do we get her surgery started? They said she doesn’t have much time left. Further delay will be detrimental. You worked so hard to be able to afford this. What is really going on?” Vivian pleaded over the phone.Silence echoed between us for a while. I leaned against the wall behind me, my mind blank and my mouth sour, my fingers flexing tightly around the phone.“

I stood impatiently as the elevator ding rang with me and a few other people inside it, the door peeled open and everyone took their time stepping out which annoyed me greatly. I took a right turn and I neared Grace's room, I may have also stolen Rino's visitor card at the hospital. I glanced anxiously around me, I had very limited time before he figured out where I was and headed straight for here. I placed Rino's card against the door security panel and it flashed red, clicking open, I let out a sigh, walking into the private room meant for Grace alone. My feet halted by the door, my knees weakened and threatened to crumble beneath me, I was unable to stomach the sight the sight of her a second time. I supported my weight against the wall and forced my shaking body closer to hers on the bed. The smell of antiseptics and faint bleach hitting my nostrils. She had all sorts of wires going in and out of her, her skin pale and lifeless, my lips was pulled open a bit to insert a tub

The engine rumbles violently, and I peel my eyes open, blowing strands of my hair away from my face with a single breath.I tighten my shaking grip on the wheel, push my feet strongly against the accelerator, and the jeep dives forward, straight for the men in front of me.I move forward with determination, daring any one of them to stand still in front of the moving vehicle — and as expected, they scatter around, jumping out of the way.Fucking bastards.I clench my jaw tightly, bending my head to the side at the shot being fired at the vehicle.Fuck!I ram the side of the car into a wall, my eyes on the side mirror, and I roar toward a sharp turn, speeding out of the parking lot like my life depends on it.I haven’t gone too far when the sound of roaring engines speeding behind me like mad reaches my ears.Shit!My eyes are on the still gates in front of me. I have no time to stand waiting for the security gate to peel open, so I do what anyone on the freaking run would do — I ram m

I stood abruptly, my feet taking heavy, long strides as I flew down the stairs.“Rino, what's going on?” My furious eyes, turned to find Micah, her phone to her ears.A look etched on her face, an almost hyperventilating Anna beside her and my fist tightened.I should be asking them the same thing.“What is it?” I let my eyes eyes and stance soften a tad bit for Anna's sake, she was always very sensitive.I caught her the second she flew into my arms, breathing harshly. “Mom. The hospital called, mom is awake.” My heart slammed against my ribcage.“What?” I breathed, my brows furrowing. “What do you mean?” I asked, confusion sealing my insides.“T-they just called to tell us that she suddenly woke up.” Micah whispered out in shock, her phone still held tightly in her grasp.My mind blacked and a rush filled my veins, I tightly held on to Anna's hands and hurried the ladies along with me.Something still didn't feel right.Grace was awake. The woman who replaced my mother and raised m

Freya's POV Pain. It was hot, Excruciating. It was like the air I breathed in. I've felt this kind of pain before, It's second nature to me, I've known it all my life. The physical, mental, and emotional pain. He said it was what I deserved, that there was no life without pain and we all had to take our share of it. We were whores, escorts and we should be ready to lay down our lives. No questions asked. I didn't want to. I was so tired of the years of pain and torture, I badly wanted to claw my way out of this. Pain rippled through my scalp, making me gasp for air. My hands reaching out to try and grab onto anything but only caught air. Relentless and desperate sobs racked from my being as I begged. “Alfredo please stop. I'm sorry, I'm so sorry.” I was shaking so hard. “How dare you try to run?” He snarled, landing a resounding slap that cut through the room and my head snapped violently to the side. A metallic taste spread in my trembling mouth. I shook my head, de
