All Chapters of Exclusively Mine: The Mafia’s Bride: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Miriam’s POVThe annoying sound of something beeping was all I could hear but I could not see anything, only darkness“Am I dead?” I thought to myself.Suddenly light pieced through the darkness covering my vision.I could finally see again… but am I not supposed to be dead. And what the hell was making that noise?” I thought to myself as I tried to focus my hazy vision.The white ceiling was what I saw followed by the bright bulb that was seconds away from blinding me.“Where am I?” I thought I was dead but strangely enough after life sure looks like a hospital.Or wait…was I in the hospital.Out of nowhere, I felt a warm sensation on my hand. I looked down and he was there.It was Lazar.My heart skipped a beat as I stared at the head full of hair.He was sitting beside me, his head resting on the edge of my bed, his large hand wrapped around mine. “What's he doing here?”His eyes are closed, his chest rising and falling steadily. He looks… exhausted.I blink rapidly, trying to ma

Janet's POVIt had been days since the failed kidnapping, yet the thought of it still made my blood boil.I had planned everything so carefully and still, somehow, Miriam had slipped through my fingers.Worse than that, the mercenaries I hired were all found dead. Every one of them.Slaughtered and dumped by the road side. It was just unbelievable and somewhat scary.What could have killed them? Or to be precise who could have killed them?I sat by the window of my study, the dim light from the lamp casting a soft shadow of my body across the floor.I poured myself a glass of wine hoping to calm my nerves while my brain racked, thinking of what to do next. Although I had been very careful when placing my orders, by not using my own name and using a secured communication channel to tell them what I wanted, even the payment I had done was through channels I was sure could never be traced back to me. I had tried to get rid of her anonymously but…it is clear that she clearly has someone

Miriam’s POVThe morning sunlight felt too bright. It streamed through the tall windows of Lazar’s penthouse like warm needles, poking at the back of my eyes. I blinked and sat up slowly. I had slept, but not rested. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw the van doors slam shut, smelled the cold-metal air, felt the hands grabbing me.Two weeks of rest. That was what Lazar insisted on.But I was slowly losing my mind from just spending two days in the house. I could not wait to go back to work. I was sick and tired of the silence when Lazar was not around. Before I looked forward to my alone time and spending the whole day alone but now I can't even spend two days without feeling suffocated. After much pleading and convincing Lazar finally agreed to let me go to work. It's not like he has the final say on what I decide to do or not but I guess I just wanted his approval.And now I am going back to work. I needed it. I needed something normal.I took a deep breath, smoothed down my cre

Miriam’s POV“Are you okay?” I asked him as soon as he ended the call.“Yeah, just work stuff. But I will handle it tomorrow.” He said.“Oh okay.” I could not help but feel that something was not adding up but I had no proof. “Sooo…. Can we continue?” He asked, his brows slightly raised.And the tense atmosphere immediately became heated once again.“ Lazar….” I breathed out as his arm circled my waist once again while his fingers gently placed my loose hair behind my ears.“Have I ever told you how beautiful you are?” He whispered as he stared at me like I was a goddess and he could not wait to worship me.My heart was pounding frantically in my chest and my breathing was uneven. I felt like any moment from now I was going to start hyperventilating with how hot my cheeks felt.“Maybe.” “Then I have to tell you again. You are beautiful, Miriam, absolutely breathtaking. I must have done a good deed in my past life to have you as mine.” He complimented and my heart basically did back

Miriam’s POV I went back to my desk acting like everything was okay, waiting for the storm to unravel.It was past lunchtime but still everything looked normal at the office, people went about typing documents, answering calls whenever the phone rang. It was just like every other day but I knew it was not going to last long and as if the universe could hear my thoughts, the director of accounting and the head of the legal department walked onto our floor with several police officers trailing behind them.My chest tightened and a small sharp smile made its way to my face as I observed the situation. The drama I had anticipated was about to start. My colleagues noticed the unusual presence of the uniformed men and they began murmuring amongst themselves, craning their necks, trying to see what was happening.“What’s going on?” “Why are the police here?”Different voices echoed as people stood up from their desks and moved toward the hallway. Everyone hoped to get a bit of news, but no
