Lahat ng Kabanata ng Mafia's Forbidden Desires: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

Raven Blackwood’s POV:I stood near my car. My arms crossed over my chest, and car’s the metal felt cool against my back. The sun was setting behind the parking lot, making everything look golden yellow and warm.Then I caught her sight. She was walking toward the parking lot. She looked happy, unlike how she was with me. Her voice was softer now as she laughed at something the other girl beside her said. She was completely unaware of my presence. The way the light hit against her hair made it look golden. Her pale skin had that same light on her face, soft and warm, like she belonged in it. She wasn’t doing anything special. Just walking, smiling, and existing. But it slowed something in me. Like I felt the time was pausing and holding its breath, just like me?Then she looked around, may be to look for Elvis or any sign of him, but instead, she found me, waiting for her here. And she raised a brow like she just saw an alien.“Where’s Elvis?” she walked towards me and asked.I blinke

By the time I reached my penthouse, the rain had stopped. but then a sudden thought hit me like a lightning bolt, I almost forgot Nolan’s birthday was tomorrow. I did not have much time. I had to get a gift for him. Like, now.Without thinking twice, I pulled my phone out of my bad and dialed Elisa’s number.“Elisa! Emergency…!! Get your butt over here…right now..” I said, and my voice almost shook with urgency.I didn’t wait for Elisa to respond before I continued. “Elisa, tell Mia too. It’s really urgent.” And I hung up the call.I quickly kicked off my wet shoes, and rushed straight to the bathroom to take a shower. The warm water of the shower felt so good on my skin after the chilly rain. While the water hit my bare skin, I tried hard to think what Nolan would want for his birthday. Would he like some gadget? Umm, No. Chocolate? No, he didn’t like sweets much. Car? Umm, he rather liked to walk. Shirt? He had plenty! Wine? No, his family was in the wine business itself. Ugh. Why w

My heart beat in my chest fast as he took my hand gently in his right hand, and with left hand he touched my chin, and he pulled my face a little towards him. He was so close to me, and I could feel his warm breath wash over my face.“I missed you, Val.” He murmured.I nodded, and had barely any time to respond before his soft peachy lips touched mine. He was so gentle as he kissed me. I could feel my soul leaving my body as how gently he was kissing me. He didn’t rush our kiss like I had seen in movies. He didn’t kiss me like he would eat me like Raven. It was slow, pure, and loving.His hand slid to the side of my face just a little above my neck, and he held me like I was some precious thing to him. My fingers clutched his t-shirt, pulling him closer without even thinking for another second.I had kissed Nolan before, but this one felt different. His lips moved against mine with growing heat between us. My whole body tingled with a need I had never felt before like this. The kiss m

He led me around the pool area. I looked around the pool and saw he had arranged a floating bar on the water surface, and was low-key impressed with it. There were a couple of colorful drinks neatly placed on it, and people were grabbing them by standing waist-deep in the pool water.On one side was a grill, sizzling with food, burgers, hot dogs, pizza, pasta, kebabs. It’s smell filled my senses, making my stomach growl with hunger.I turned to Nolan, quietly impressed. “I didn’t know you could plan a party like this in so much less time.Nolan laughed a little. “Well.. Baby.. I can do a lot of things.” He leaned lower, and spoke in a low voice. “You just haven’t seen everything yet.”I raised a brow. “Oh really?”Nolan leaned closer and just then his lips brushed against my neck. “Really. But I’ll save that for later tonight.”God. This man…Before he could say anything else, one of his friends called out to him, “Nolan.. Come take a shot with us.”“Be right there,” he shouted back,

I didn't say anything, but just dragged her outside,made her sit on the passenger seat, ignoring her shouts, and drove.Yes, people watched us from how loud she shouted, but who cared?My fingers were tight on the steering wheel, knuckles stiff, and my jaw ached from how hard I was clenching it. I couldn't stop the scene playing in my head, again and again, that he was touching her. His hand were on her body. Her lips were parted open for her. Her dress were falling off her beautiful breast.I wanted to scream. But instead, I stayed quiet.She sat beside me, her arms crossed, her body turned away from me like I was some stranger. But I could feel her anger..It would be justified, but not to me.When we reached her building, I didn’t wait for her. I slammed the car door and walked inside, each step fast and loud. I didn’t care if anyone saw me like this.The elevator ride up was silent. Too silent.I didn’t even look at her. I just stared at the numbers in front of my eyes.When the d
