Semua Bab THE LIES THAT BIND: Bab 61 - Bab 70

Ana’s POV. I felt so much pain on my cheek and tried to absorb it. I couldn’t imagine trying to scold him, like he sister just did. I kept mute and reminisced on the things which he had just said that early morning. Isabel had gone back to her room and all I could recall was nothing but his humble and frustrating stare. I felt like walking out of the room immediately. Because the pain which I felt at that point in time was nothing compared to the fear which engulfed me at the moment. I shook my head and held myself backwards. He left to get me a glass of water a few minutes ago so I turned off the light. I needed to wear a new dress right away and as fast as I could before he returned. “How are you doing today?” I heard his voice as he entered my room. I turned off the lights initially but he walked in and chuckled. “Why did you turn off the bright lights completely?” He asked. His hands were searching for the switch and I could sense he was getting closer to it so I tried to cover

Massimo POVIt wasn’t going to be so funny if Enzo leaves. He’s one of the strongest men the Cosa Nostra had ever known, but I still couldn’t believe he would act in such a manner, and towards me. I tried the best I could to make sure that I had a thorough control over myself and also my emotions as I stumbled on the text which popped up on my phone. It was from Ana’s brother. ‘I’ll be at your office soon, so please, make sure that mad dog isn’t going to be on site, else I’ll kill him,’ he ended it with an angry face emoji and maybe had that been a way he’ll be able to convey his message. I shook my head and smiled back. I dropped the phone and after a while, turned to the clock. It was getting pretty late and maybe I wouldn’t be able to check for the other messages he dropped earlier. I had to begin the analysis and the checkups immediately. I was thrilled to hear a knock at the door and I paused. For a minute I guessed who that person was going to be because Rome wouldn’t knock th

Ana’s POV. It’s been two days since the meeting which had Massimo erupt like a Volcano. He almost reacted harshly towards Domenico and that got us all bothered. On my own path, I wondered what would actually be the reason why he’ll have to deny Enzo his right in the Cosa Nostra. Enzo was guilty, that was a known fact, but the punishment he got in turn was way too far from what I even expected. I felt like I’d get hungry if I didn't see Martha immediately, because I had informed her that I’ll be having a fast for the day. But that was just a custom I tried to emulate from my home in Russia. I was trying to act so nice as I walked down to the garden to see if I’ll be able to find her there but all of a sudden, I stumbled on a figure who sat underneath a tree, and from all I observed, he was in deep thoughts. I could imagine the tension he’ll be feeling right away. I walked closer to him and stood behind. He didn’t wait to see whom it was, but knew for certain it would be a lady. His i

Massimo’s POV. I just needed to be sure I was still alive at least. I touched my head and then my jaws which made me grow slowly. “Ouch!” I cried. I felt the bruises all over me. I tried to turn over. The last thing I recalled was the fall, down the valley while the men shot at us. I tried to shake off the dust on my feet and at the same time, I searched the environment to see if Rome would be spotted anywhere close.My arm felt somewhat broken, and this time, it felt like something was going off, maybe from the Cosa Nostra. I could barely feel my left arm, my body was bruised and covered in blood. I breathed heavily and turned. The bush was so quiet. My heart quivered and I felt a touch of fear. My eyes narrowed at the sight of a substance on the ground. I felt it creep into my trouser. ‘What the hell would that be?’ I muttered and just as I tried to deep my hands in, I spotted a python snake and screamed. ‘What the fuck!’ I rushed up and shook my legs immediately. it crawled out

Chapter 70.Massimo’s POV. Dead men filled the house. They were trying to have me killed but I outsmarted them. It wasn’t an easy battle for me though and being alone. I just had to show them who the boss was. Taking you down the memory lane would expose so many things you’ve probably not known about. The last 10 minutes was one which would have decided my fate. ****(10 minutes ago) “Keep quiet Rome, I’d be back.” I Said. My voice was shrill and low. I placed my second finger on my lips, signaling that he kept calm and watched me do my thing. It was one of the greatest risks I’ve taken in my life. Going after four armed men, even while I was unarmed. “Don, this ain’t the United States, this is Spain, you’re on a different soil and as it stands, there’s no way we can get back up, just like in New York. Don you have to take things slow and make sure that things aren’t going to be…” He was amazed at my actions. I left him right away and walked out slowly. The men had already divide
