The Mafia's Klepto Bride のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

LUCA'S POV Once more, I had just concluded a deal. I had never gone after something and failed in this world, I has the entire underground system at my disposal and everyone worked out just fine. This was my town literally, I owned it, same way I owned this bar that I was in. It was a strip club to those willing to pay and because I was strung up, I had decided to come steam off when I was approached by this lady. She was beautiful no doubt about that but she was also ignorant. One look at her and I knew that she didn't belong here. If she did, she would have known who I was and she would have run very far away from me but here she was, asking for a dance. She had guts, I would give her that. I could have said no, ignored her very existence like I was used to but if there was another thing I liked other than money and power, it was people with confidence. People who were so confident that they carried a death wish upon their heads and I was looking at one of them. Brazen and beau

LUCA'S POV“You whatㅡ!” My aunt shrieked as soon as I delivered the news of my marriage to them.My uncle shot her a warning look that made her shrink back and shut up while he sighed before looking at me.“Look, Luca…we're just concerned…” His voice trailed off and settled on Elena who was sitting beside me, gracefully, her gaze surveying every member of my family who were just as involved in the business as they should beShe was an epitome of grace. She wanted to always have the upper hand and though she seemed clueless, she didn't show it. She raised her chin up and made sure to look everyone in the eye to show that she wasn't intimidated. So cute that I would almost laugh.Another man who seemed to have a lot to say piped in. “It just seems awfully convenient” He said with a raise of an eye brow.I looked at him, a fire blazing in my eyes.“What is?” I dared him to talkHe shifted uncomfortably by the wall he was leaning on and shrugged. “Doesn't it seem a little too weird that L

ELENA'S POV My eyes widened as the man left me in shock and stared mouth agape at Luca.I guess that was my reaction also. Surprise.Luca sighed and looked at me, walking to me.“Are you all right?” He asked, his dark eyes looking over my skin while I watched him with fascination.The man took a step back, his lips quivering. “Your…your wife?” He stuttered.“Yes, my wife. I should kill you for touching her but I'm in a good mood. Scram. If I ever see you bother her again, I'll paint the pavement with your blood” his voice was low and threatening.The man immediately gulped and scrambled away.“I thought you said you had some business to take care of” I muttered refusing to meet his gaze as I shrugged off his hand and dusted myself, my hair sticking out in bits.He frowned at how I pulled away from his touch but he didn't comment on it, his hand finding their way into his trousers as usual.“I know what I said but I had a feeling that something was wrong,” He said, his gaze still fixe

ELENA'S POV I tossed and turned in bed as the night by, unable to sleep. I was used to sleeping alone but now I felt so out of place in the room assigned to me.Everything seemed so intimidating.Which is why I couldn't bear it anymore. I stood up and walked out of the room, the door gently closing behind me. According to the information I received from the maid, no one would be in the house by this time except me and the man who ran this place. Namely Luca.The house was filled with lights that stayed on and was eerily silent. Seems like he was asleep.I wrapped a hand around myself, suddenly realizing that I had not eaten dinner. After my conversation with him, I had not wanted to eat anything but now I was hungry and I couldn't bear it anymore.A while back, I had given myself a tour of the mansion so I knew where the fridge was.Quietly, I tiptoed there and swung open the fridge to look inside at the assortment of food and snacks.I could probably grab a canned food and warm it u

ELENA'S POV “You heard me” he repeated, his large body obscuring the view behind him as he leaned against my door frame at 7 in the morning.My hair stuck out around me and I was aware of the appraising look he gave me. This was the second time he had seen me like this and he didn't seem to hate the look. There was almost a look of envy in his eyes.“But umm…you didn't tell me that yesterday,” I said groggily.His eyes dimmed and he looked at me with dead blue eyes that never seemed to brighten.“I make plans anytime I want. Your job is to follow them. That was the deal” he reminded.I frowned at his attitude this morning. “That was not part of the deal. The deal was that I pretend to be your wife in public”“Well not public precisely. I'm not asking you to be affectionate in public with me…” he paused then muttered a “doesn't work In this world” under his breath before looking back at me.“I get that but at least give me some notice. I'm stressed out today and I need some time to ge
