Blood Vows with the Mafia Boss のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

“Shit!” Dante’s voice cut through the chaos.He turned around fast, eyes locking on me like I was the only thing left in the world. He climbed over the console, kneeling beside me in the backseat. I winced as the pain lanced deeper. My fingers were slick with blood.“Stay with me, Sera,” he muttered, voice cracking. “Look at me. Just, look at me.”I tried. God, I tried.He didn’t waste a second. He yanked the shirt off the unconscious fake driver, tearing it down the middle, and pressed it against my shoulder with both hands.I bit back a scream, chest shaking. It felt like fire meeting fire.“I know, I know,” Dante whispered, his face just inches from mine, soaked in panic and rage. “I’m sorry. Just hold on, okay? This’ll stop the bleeding.” I could see it now, the side of him no one else ever would. Not the cold, immovable Moretti, but the man underneath. Raw. Wrecked. Terrified.When the makeshift bandage was tight enough, he pushed the driver into the passenger seat like he weigh

Wait, how did he know?I slammed the laptop shut, breath catching sharp in my chest. My fingers scrambled for the lock, twisting it hard like the bolt could somehow keep him out, not just from the room, but from what he knew. What he’d just said.I tore the USB drive from the port, shoved it under my bag again, and swept the desk clean in seconds, my notebook, my sticky notes, even the water glass I’d left beside the mouse pad. Gone.The laptop, God, even the angle looked guilty. I nudged it back to where it had been before I touched it, adjusted the screen, checked it twice. My pulse was a hammer in my ears, louder than the fading ghost of his voice.I started pacing. Once. Twice.Then I froze by the window, hands braced on the cool glass, eyes locked on the skyline, a smear of steel and lightning. Storm clouds churned above this damn safehouse like they knew something I didn’t.He knew. How the hell did he know?I turned and paced again, heart drumming faster with every step. Each se

Dante's POV“Sera!” My voice tore through the tunnel as Sera went through the darkness, bouncing off the damp walls before dissolving into the thick silence.No answer.Only the echo of her name, swallowed by shadows that seemed to breathe around me.Then I spun around, boots grinding against loose gravel. My pulse was hammering in my ears, loud and erratic, as if trying to punch its way out of my throat.She was gone.Not just lost, vanished.Slipped into the dark before I could grab her. Before I could stop her.And I let her.I clenched my jaw, staring into the void she’d disappeared into. The worst part wasn’t that I couldn’t find her.It was knowing I should’ve seen it coming.Damn it.I stormed back up the stairs, fury building with every step. As soon as I shoved open the rusted basement door and stepped outside the abandoned house, the three guards snapped to attention.“Check the basement!” I barked. “Find Sera—now. And call for backup!” One of the guards jolted upright the m

The next door creaked open as I stepped into it, slow and deliberate, like it knew I didn’t want to see what was on the other side. A hiss escaped from the gap—cold air, artificial and sharp, brushing against my face like the breath of something dead and waiting. The metallic scent came next. Thick. Bitter. Blood and rust. It hit the back of my throat and stayed there, clinging like regret.The lights overhead buzzed faintly, flickering in an ominous shade of red that painted everything in shades of warning. The kind of light you only ever see in horror movies, right before the worst part happens.Chains hung from the ceiling. Some swayed gently, as if recently touched. Others were still, coiled like waiting snakes. The floor was concrete, cracked and stained with patches too dark to be anything but blood.The walls—mirrors. Dozens of them. Warped. Shattered. Each one showed a different version of me. A fractured kaleidoscope of tired eyes, bruised skin, trembling lips.I didn’t recogn

Damian's gaze was steady. "I wish I was. I wanted to be wrong about him too, Sera. But he's not the man you thought he was."But he looked so... cold. Like I meant nothing. Like I was just another pawn in his empire.My voice cracked. "Why are you showing me this?"He lowered the tablet, his expression softening. "Because you deserve to know what game you've been dragged into. Your brother... Luca... tried to stop this once. That's why they took him. That's why he disappeared."My heart slammed in my chest.My breath caught in my throat. I took a step back, heart thudding like a warning drum in my chest. "You..." I swallowed hard, barely able to form the words. "You know where Luca is?" My voice cracked on his name. The weight of it hung between us, heavy and trembling. My eyes locked on Damien's, searching, pleading, afraid of the answer and desperate for it all at once."I'm getting close." Damian's tone darkened. "But we can't get to him unless we're smart. You and me, together. We
