All Chapters of Mafia's Forbidden Desires: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Valerie Thorne POV:Age: Sixteen.Hi. My name is Valerie. Valerie Thorne. The daughter of Victor Thorne and Leah Spencer. Since I was a child, I got everything I ever wanted. Be it toys, clothes, or extravagant gifts in the world. My father ensured the world bent to my will, and my mother? Well, she made sure I always looked perfect.But no one ever asked what I truly wanted.And right now? I wanted him.Raven Blackwood.Raven Blackwood was the son of my father’s best friend Richard Blackwood. He was twenty years old this year. He followed after his father’s steps and took over his business just at the age of eighteen. He had dark hair, which looked sharper than shadows, and his gray eyes. Well, they looked like some storm that was on the verge of destruction.Everyone admired him and feared him. And me? Well, I was no exception either.But that was not the thing I admired about him the most. Being the family friends, I had basically grown up watching him. He was a quiet kid in his fr

“What are you doing here?” Raven Blackwood questioned.I could feel his aura getting more heavier to endure. I instinctively took a step back. I mustered my courage to respond him. I opened my mouth, and for a second I felt no words were going to come out. I took a deep breath, “I was just Curious.”Raven Blackwood paused for a while. Seemingly, he was mulling over my answer. But the silence didn’t remain for long. “Curious?”I nodded slowly. I could feel displeasure from his body language. I looked up a little and my gaze fell on his arm where that woman touched him, and my heart tightened again. I needed to leave. I couldn’t stay. And since he found out, he wouldn’t let me stay either. So it was best, I would leave on my own. “I was just leaving.”Another silence followed.I felt myself going insane from everything at once. Since when had I ever been in such a situation?Another minute passed, and he finally spoke, “It’s not safe. I will let Eliot drop you home.”I looked at him in

Two years passed. I was finally eighteen. School was complete. In the weeks time, I was finally leaving for Italy. For the new chapter, a fresh start of my life. Italy was a place far from the chaos of Las Vegas and everything that came with it. I had dreamed of this escape for so long that when it was finally here, I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Or maybe both.In the last two years, I rarely saw Raven Blackwood again. But his power and reputation had spread too much. Even more than my father’s power and reputation. People didn’t dare to even take his name casually anymore. They spoke it with fear, with awe, sometimes even with a sort of reluctant respect.I avoided him since I saw that video on Blondie’s phone. It sent chills down my spine, and I couldn’t sleep for nights after that. And that was not the only incident where he killed the woman he was close with. That was just the first I witnessed. Many such incidents had happened. Before that. After that. The women who had g

Raven Blackwood:I lied. I wasn’t going to Italy for any meeting. I mean I was going, but not like it was some urgent meeting, where I had to be present, personally.Last night, right after the alliance meeting ended, I saw Victor Thorne looking quiet stressed, and making various calls. I casually asked what happened. He didn’t hide, and told me his daughter was going to Italy for her studies, and he was worried about her safety.Listening about his daughter made my brows raise. Not because I was concerned or what for her. But I remembered her behaviour every time I saw her.The first time, it happened, when two years ago, I visited her house to give flowers, just because she had fainted. She looked at me like I would eat her if she met my eyes for a second longer. After that, there were only a number of times, I saw her. And each time, she either ran away or looked too scared.Well. That was not the Valerie Thorne I remembered in my memories. She used to be the most cheerful, bubbly,

Raven Blackwood POV:I was expecting this. The moment I landed in Milan, Italy, I knew I would have already been notified to the Man who controlled Milan, Italy from the shadows.I picked up my phone and walked out of the restaurant, and answered the call. “Hello.”Soon, the voice came over the speaker as the man spoke in Italian. “Ciao.”“What’s the matter?” I asked directly. I was not in the business mood when the little rabbit was still waiting for me. I had to settle her things first, before going to some meeting or talk about some business.The man took a moment to answer my question before I heard his calm voice again. “Sei Venuto?”‘Sei Venuto?’ meant ‘You Came?’ in English.I sighed, since he already knew I was here in Milan, Italy. Why the damn question? Moreover, how else did he reach out to my Italian number, if not for the fact that I was here? Some people were really stupid, despite the power they had. But I had no time for putting common sense in their mind, I answered.
