All Chapters of Mafia's Forbidden Desires: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

Raven Blackwood’s POV:Valerie had been acting differently the whole day, thinking I wouldn’t notice, but I did.She avoided meeting my gaze like she had done something she shouldn’t have. Did she really forget what happened last night? Or was she doing it deliberately? But no matter how much I looked at her reaction or even the smallest expressions on her face or the tremble of her fingers, it all pointed to one thing. That she forgot what happened last night, or most likely, who she did it with last night.Her memory was a blank page now, and she was acting around as if nothing had happened. And that… irritated me more than anything else.She wasn’t supposed to forget me.Later that evening… Valerie was still in her room, looking uninterested in going to Raven’s wedding party. I walked to her bedside, “Get ready!”“I don’t want to,” She said, looking out of the window.“Why do you look heartbroken?” I sighed, “Don’t tell me you liked Rowan?”“Nonsense,” she snapped instantly.“Then

Half an hour later, a man in his late fifties arrived. He had ash grey eyes on his dusky face, with a mole near his right brow. His hair was dusky grey, and it was styled neatly. And he wore a navy-blue suit as well. There were two men around him. One was his chief assistant, Kirill, and the other was his youngest daughter, Hayley.Kirill was an older man who looked almost the same age as the man with ash grey eyes. He had a dark and tanned body. And he wore a plain white shirt with formal dusky green pants. His hair was more ruffled. And his eyes were light brown.And Hayley, his youngest daughter. She had dusky skin. Her eyes were ash brown with a hint of green in them and dark brown eyebrows. Her hair was dark brown and curly, which was tied in a clean ponytail. She wore a tight-fitting black leather outfit. And her lips looked a perfect shade of pink. She had a lean body, and her eyes were sharp as she assessed the cruise silently.Following them were at least four to five elite g

Valerie Thorne’s POV:Six weeks later…Raven had organised a dinner on his favourite cruise. It was grand, sleek and huge in size. He invited Axel, Rowan, Rowan’s wife, and Rowan’s child as well.On the surface, the night looked perfect. The ocean before my eyes was stretched endlessly, and the waves were gentle. The sky above was filled with bright moonlight and countless stars.I stood at the edge of the cruise, watching the moon’s silver light touch the sea waves. But inside me was filled with nothing but anxiety. My fingers slowly reached towards my stomach.I was pregnant. It had been four weeks now.Just a few seconds later, I heard footsteps behind me, and he stopped a few inches away. I inhaled sharply and spoke without turning back, “You’re staring.”Raven answered, “Always.”I slowly turned my head towards him and noticed the look on his face, “Why do you look angry now?”“I am wondering,” Raven murmured under his breath, yet it sounded dangerous the way he said. “How long w

Raven Blackwood’s POV:Something had changed.The way Valerie acted since morning, the way she was suddenly present in a way that it frightened me.Was this the pregnancy effect? I wondered?!Valerie woke up earlier than usual today. She sang happily in the kitchen as she prepared breakfast. This was my first time seeing her this happy, singing, and cooking.When I walked to her, she even served me food happily, as if her alertness around me belonged to a different life.I kept my eyes on her the entire time. People talked about pregnancy changing people, but I didn’t know if it could change someone entirely.I took a bite slowly and nodded, “It’s good.”She smiled widely. Her smile was so bright that it almost dazzled me. “Really?” she asked. “Yes,” I said, still watching her.She nodded, then sat with her own plate. It was the first time she willingly sat next to me and ate. Warmth rushed to my heart, reminding me of the night she confessed her heart to me.She ate quietly but loo

Valerie Thorne’s POV:A week later…At the airport, I clutched my passport tightly. Blondie had arranged for me a fake identity and a fake passport. Now I wasn’t Valerie Thorne anymore. I had become Celine Ashford now.I was finally leaving Las Vegas for good, for forever. This was not what I wanted to do, but this was what I had to do. For the sake of my child. How good it would have been if Raven were the father of my child, but he was not.Raven was not a cruel person, but I couldn’t guarantee what he would do to the child that didn’t belong to him, considering his possessive behaviour around me. I spent this whole week with him to secure the memories I hoped would last an entire lifetime. My heart craved for him more and more, but I couldn’t let my heart hope for things that were impossible now.My heart felt heavy sitting in the airport at 2 a.m. in the morning. This place was almost empty except for a few passengers.In the past week, except for spending time with Raven, I secre
