All Chapters of A Toy For The Ruthless Mafia Lord : Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

CHAPTER 171Katherine stood by the window, with her arms folded. Her eyes dragged over the dark stretch of land below. She traced the horizon with a dead stare, wondering—if only she had a veil long enough to throw down… or maybe a bow and arrow. Anything sharp. Anything useful.Ughhh Rapunzel was so lucky. She would kill for that hair but no. This wasn't a fairytale.She was just a girl whose fate was with a mafia and it never ended. She kept getting tossed to serial killers, psychopaths.Immediately, she regretted running away from Lucifer. If she hadn't ran away, none of these would have happened in the first place. She would have been safe with Noah, back at home with Lucifer.Her fingers tapped against the cold brick in thought. She heard the keys jingling but didn’t even bother turning when the doorknob rattled. Just another round of the same circus.The door was pushed open, she felt someone step in and lock the door behind them again. Then a cough followed.“Hello, corpse brid

CHAPTER 173The air on the hill in Prague was cool, with a hint of rain coming. The wind moved through the tall grass, brushing against Lucifer’s legs like quiet warnings. He stood near the edge, alone, wearing a plain grey shirt and khaki shorts. Clothes that felt strange on him. It was the first time since he was a boy that he wore something so simple and soft. To fit in.Because tonight, power meant not standing out. A frown formed on his face. He detested delay and yet here he was, waiting.He adjusted the small communicator clipped beneath his collar, muttering, “Position stable.”Giovanni’s voice crackled through the device a second later, rough and clipped. “We’ve got eyes everywhere. If this is a trap, we’ll catch it before it closes.”Lucifer’s gaze drifted across the empty slope. Petřín Hill was wide and open. No cover except trees in the distance. The Rose Garden behind him felt too peaceful for the unsettling feeling he laboured deep inside.“The Don said he’d be waiting,”

CHAPTER 175Riley sat with blood drying on her upper lip, and her eyes spinned faintly from the pain. Don’s fingers pressed against the bridge of her broken nose, trying to stop the bleeding. She didn’t move or blink. She just watched him from under her lashes.Don gave a short, humorless laugh. “You’re staring like you want me dead.”She slapped his hand away and pushed herself up, her jaw tight with rage. “How dare you.”Don blinked. “What?”“You think I don’t see it?” Her voice rose. “That look in your eyes when she speaks? The way you hover around her now? What do you think you're doing?”He shook his head slowly, but she kept going. “You’re no better than the rest of them. Giovanni, Lucifer… and now you.” She took a step closer. “You don’t see it yet, but Katherine’s already won. That’s what she does. She doesn’t need to kill us. She just… changes us. One by one.”“Riley—”“Shut up.” Her voice cracked and echoed around the room. “Do you even remember who you are anymore? Or has s

CHAPTER 177Katherine sat in silence and she stared into nothingness. Her eyes were dry, but inside, she was drowning. She hadn't been able to process any of it, ever since that day. Since her kidnap the only thing she had been worried about was existing, not living. Everything since then had just been about surviving.Breathing, eating and sleeping. One task at a time like she was a prisoner in her own skin.She didn’t think of escape anymore. There was no strength left for hope. No plans. So she waited for whatever was to come.But she missed her baby.Her breasts ached and were tight, sore and heavy with milk she couldn't release. She had soaked through the bodice of the wedding dress days ago, and now it dried against her skin in sour stains. Her hands had trembled more than once when she thought of Noah’s tiny face, of his soft coos when she held him. The ache in her body wasn’t just physical. It was a loss. And it was deep and gnawing.But now that she could properly reason, s

CHAPTER 179Lucifer crouched low on the rooftop of the building across from Don's villa. He was dressed in black all through and the wind flapped his jacket. He was sure that if a young child somewhere across the world peeked outside their window, they would think Batman was real and in the city.His eyes locked on the compound below, with his mouth pressed into a line as he watched. Beside him, Giovanni was down on one knee, breathing steady and clad in similar outfit. Lucifer lifted the binoculars. The place was moving with guards. A few more guards had shifted to the east wing. They were pacing now with their guns in their hands. They didn't panic but they knew something was off.“They’ve moved,” Lucifer muttered. “Three by the east. Two at the back. One near the garage.”Giovanni squinted. “He’s tightened the exits.”Lucifer dropped the binoculars and reached into his pocket and pulled out the small radio. It clicked once.“Antonio. Are you in?”“We’re in,” he called back statica
