All Chapters of The Devil's Little Angel : Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

ROMANO'S P.O.VI used to like it in the Casino.The noise, the chaos, the money, and the deals we made here. I used to like it in the Casino, until I found home not in a place, but in a person.I parked my car in the underground lot of The Phoenix, the largest casino in all of Chicago. A gentle breeze blew past my face as my soldiers lined the way.It's been a while since I was here. It was time to make a statement. To tell the world that Romano Cappellucci is still the same Mafia lord they should fear and cower at.Calista's soft voice floated into my mind, and my stiff shoulder loosened a fraction. I adjusted my gun tucked in the bulletproof vest under my tailored suit.My men parted ways as I walked through the floor. From the corner of my eyes, I saw the fearful gasps, curious eyes watching me with every step I took towards my office aboveI've been away for too long.Different sounds mingled together: Laughter, chips clinking, dice rolling, people screaming over their winnings, s

CALISTA'S P.O.VI barely registered Roman taking my wrist, leading me to our room and softly closing the door against meSaying something's about how he was in calling an impromptu meeting for the ‘threat' he ‘ordered me not to question him about Roman ordered me to stand down, not as my husband but as my Capo And that made me mad. It made me really, really mad. I wasn't his subject, and he wasn't my Capo.Roman is my husband. And I demand to know the truth about what this threat was.I clenched my fist hard by my side, annoyance morphing into anger and anger into something hotter. Roman may want to protect me, and while I don't fault him for that, his approach minutes ago wasn't working with meI've been kept in the shadows my whole life, treated like a helpless damsel in distress who could not protect herself. And that was the thing, I wanted to learn how to protect myself, I didn't want to be a burden to Roman at every attack, and he should know that.But if he doesn't know, I'll

CALISTA'S P.O.VIt was only the scent of amber musk and spice that made sense to me There were times when I used to have these... dreams. No, not dreams and not entirely nightmares, it's different, like I'm in a loop of some kindMy mind is on a brief suspension, and everything begins to blur. I know that doesn't make sense, but that was the point of it, none of it made any sense to meI'd regain my consciousness after this...loop passes, but for the few seconds, I have to think really extra hard to remember where I am or what happened.The scariest one—sometimes I have to remember myself who I am.Thankfully, this moment wasn't the one where I forget my own existence and my name, the only thing I'm trying to remember as I sit up in bed was what happened a few moments ago A pained sigh slipped past my lips as I sat up, clutching the side of my throbbing head.“Here” I flinched slightly at the voice. I didn't know someone was here with me. Wait, where am I?“It's me" He spoke again,

ROMAN'S P.O.VThe brotherhood, in fact, had not entered my Villa that day.Justin, after much investigation found out that the picture of Calista sent to me was taken with a drone shot. So, no, they did not get into my Villa.That gave me a small sense of relief for Calista's and my family's safety. However, I was still teetering on the edge of a cliff, knowing that some group of soon-to-be-dead people was not just threatening Callie's life, but also audacious enough to challenge me.“Cazzo," I cursed under my breath, looking out the highway as one of my men, Niko, sped us off.There was so much sitting on my shoulders right now. The most bothersome of them all begins with the identity of the man who ran the X Bròtherhood and his death threats to Callie.Then there was her insistence on why I was keeping her ‘Locked up' at home. I knew she wanted to go out freely more often, but that was a risk I couldn't take. Not at all, with the mysterious brotherhood prowling her and the Irish Maf

ROMAN'S P.O.V“The brother,” Aria whispered again, her words were filled with so much dread and fear.I took the lead, Aria behind me being protected by Niko and Ricardo. Every muscle in my body was locked tight; my heart trailed in front of me. “The Brother" I echoed, stomach churning with disgust.The air thickened the further we went into the tunnel-like thing. The air was filled with dust, damp concrete, fear, and tears Lots of tears I turned slightly so I could look Aria square in the eyes. I didn't like the fact that she wasn't outside, safe with Vincent and Otto, but we needed her to find ‘The brother’ in this maze of a place. Her hazel eyes were trusting when she looked up at me. “Stay behind me. Understand?”Aria nodded, her small jaw trembling even though she tried to hide it— the fear. She was a brave little girl. Too brave for someone who still had their milk teeth.No child should ever go through such. A sound echoed in the darkness, and Niko tried to move ahead, but I
