All Chapters of The Mafia Don's Revenge: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Kaiden:Chaos erupts. Shouts ring out as bullets rain from above, the sounds echoing off the walls.People throw themselves to the ground, taking cover under the sparse tables available. The air is filled with the smell of gunpowder.What idiot brought a gun to the Palace? This is a neutral ground and this quarterly dinner is a way to forge alliances.Without our weapons and bodyguards, we're left open to this attack. The lights have plunged us into a red haze, making it impossible for me to see a few feet in front of me.Some of the Dons are guarding their wives and significant others, their bodies forming a shield around them.We are all crouched on the floor, unsure of where the shots are coming from. Someone's trigger-happy, but even amid the chaos I notice that no one has been hit.The top echelon of crime is in this room and no one wants to make a stupid mistake that will lead to an all-out war.My mind is racing.Fuck. Where's Daisy? I scan the crowd but it's like looking for a

5 Hours Earlier Kaiden: I step out of the car, my eyes fixed on the entrance of my casino. I was already running late and Andreas's urgent call only added to my frustration. The usually bustling casino is quiet, the only sound is the soft hum of slot machines. I spot Andreas waiting for me, his expression grim. "What's going on?" I asked, my voice low and urgent. I toss my suit jacket, accepting the gun he stretches out to me. Tucking it into my belt, I strap on a bulletproof vest. I carefully lift the AK-47 from the duffel bag, my hands moving with practised ease. Sliding the sling over my shoulder and adjusting it to fit comfortably. The weight of the rifle settled against my back, a reassuring presence. Lastly, I secure the armband with a phi symbol on it for identification. "The mole sabotaged the casino, we've got multiple hostiles on the upper floors." Andreas supplies. "What went wrong?" I inquire angrily. "He hacked into the security system. That's how w

Kaiden:I crack open my eyes, wincing at the brightness of the room. My gaze is unfocused and I blink once, twice, to shake off the bleariness.There's a heaviness in my head and my thoughts are muddled. I lift a shaky hand to my head, flinching when there's a stiff pull at my side.Taking in my room, I try to remember how I got here. Fragments begin to surface, the sound of gunfire, an armband, searing pain in my head and my side and the sensation of being carried.The casino ambush. Right.Steeling myself against the pain, I sit up on my bed and my body protests with a wave of dizziness. I close my eyes and wait for it to clear.Gazing down at my body, I take in the bandages wrapped around my arm and my side. Slowly lifting my hand, I trace the source of the throbbing in my head. My fingers graze the stitches that cut across my forehead.Sighing, I lean my head onto the headboard to catch my breath.My eyes move towards the door as it opens. Alex peeps into the room, his eyes wideni

CHAPTER 18: Kaiden: I stand in the doorway of the apartment staring at Daisy over her friend's head. My gaze sweeps over her, taking in her thighs and the shorts that cling to her hips. The thin tank top she wears outlines her curves. My eyes linger on her hair, it forms a halo around her face. Daisy's eyes are wide with surprise as she takes in my form. My lips twitch into a smile but I quickly repress it. Did she think I won't find her? I still don't understand how she managed to make it out of the house and I have some questions about that. Due to our time together, I had forgotten the fact that she's a suspect. I won't forget it again. "Daisy? Who is this?" Her friend asks. She has placed herself in front of me to block me from entering; not that she's much of a barrier. It wasn't hard to find Daisy, given my resources. She left with no money and barefooted, she would've needed someplace to stay. That left either Aunt Mercy or Stacy Tupas and from the report I got fro

Kaiden:The engine roars and the car surges forward. The road blurs as I drive. Thankfully, this is a shortcut, and the road is not filled with cars.The urgency in my chest eases as I see the familiar turnoff ahead. Almost there.I glance at Daisy's slumped form, my heart still racing from the panic attack that had wracked her body. Her eyes flutter open, and she looks around, slightly disoriented.Keeping my eyes on the road, I speak softly to reassure her. "Daisy, you're okay. You're safe.""We're almost there," I tell her as we approach my house."Where?" She asks weakly, her mind still cloudy."My house. I'll explain everything... I owe that to you." We pulled into the house, passing the security at the gate. I drive to the garage and park.Once parked, I turn off the engine and turn to Daisy."Let's head inside." I step out of the car and head to her side. I swoop her into my arms before her feet touch the ground.As I held Daisy close, the weight of her in my arms was reass
