บททั้งหมดของ The Mafia's Slave: Claimed By My Stepbrother: บทที่ 111 - บทที่ 120

KEITHLater that day, when Cain and another bodyguard took Julian out of the mansion to show him around my property, I took the time to check up on Mia.“You don’t need me to tell you to always keep me informed, do you?” I had asked Cain.“You never have to worry about anything, unless it is absolutely important,” Cain answered.Julian had insisted that he didn’t need to rest, and as such, the tour around needed to happen, and also, I wanted to check up on Mia.I entered the room and shut the door gently. Tessa was in the room, watching over Mia as instructed.“Leave,” I told her.“Yes, sir,” Tessa said.She got up, bowed slightly, and left.Then I walked closer to Mia’s bed and stared down at her. Now that the doctor had taken care of her, and she was screaming anymore, she seemed peaceful.And beautiful.I had instructed Tessa to wear on her another better outfit because the one she was brought back in had already been torn, so most of her injuries were covered.“Mia…” I called soft

MIAI stood and looked around, but there was nothing familiar about where I was standing. It was utterly confusing.“Where am I again? How did I get here?” I asked myself again.I didn’t like this feeling.It was disturbing, and worse, confusing. This was the second time I was finding myself in a place without knowing how I got there. This time around, however, I wasn’t looking at a house. The whole atmosphere was completely different from anything I knew as a human being. It felt like I was in an unknown world and I couldn’t place it. There were goosebumps all over my body, especially when some sort of eerie wind blew around me. I felt the chill in my body, but it wasn’t as a result of the cold. It was as a result of danger. I could feel it in my skin and deep in my bones.I could smell it.It smelled like something oddly and disgustingly familiar.“What is going on?” I asked myself in fear.Fear gripped me tightly, not letting go. Tears welled up in my eyes, and I kept feeling lik

MIAWhen I opened my eyes, I felt more relaxed. Not that the pains were completely gone, but I didn’t have those nightmares that disturbed me and caused me to scream my lungs out.I didn’t get to smell and see blood, Lolita, or those bodyguards who wanted to torment me.“You are awake,” a female voice said.I turned and looked, and I saw that it was the same lady I had seen earlier, and the same one who said she was my new friend.“You are still here?” I asked her.“Yes, and I am going to be for a while,” she said with a smile.She was professionally dressed, but at the same time, the sight of her was a bit refreshing in a way I couldn’t explain.“Where is Tessa?” I asked.“She is out somewhere in the mansion, doing her other jobs,” she answered.“Why isn’t she here?” I asked her.I recalled the last time I saw someone familiar was her. I also noticed that she had taken care of me and looked after me. No matter how harmless and welcoming this stranger was, I had already gone through s

KEITH Thankfully, Julian didn’t attempt to question or defile my order. Not that I would have allowed him to, but because he was eager to get on his assignment, he had obliged quickly.The moment he stepped out of the study, Cain seized the opportunity to have a quick word with me.“What was that about?” I asked angrily, referring to answering Julian even after I already said something that signaled for him not to.“I am sorry boss,” Cain apologized. “I know you didn’t want me to answer his question, but you and I noticed how nosy he was, and I figured that if I didn’t come up with a response, he might get really suspicious and nosier,” he explained.I couldn’t deny that Cain was right anyway.“Next time, Cain, don’t you dare flaunt my orders,” I warned him regardless.“Definitely, boss,” Cain agreed. “When we get back, I do have some things I want to bring to your notice about him,” Cain said.“Alright,” I simply said, eager to get upstairs. “I have no worry because you already clea

JACKIEI wish Keith allowed me to spend longer time in that room, or even gave me privacy, but he didn’t. If I had gotten just a second alone with Mia, I could have done the job of taking her out myself.Keith already said that he was trying hard to keep her alive, and the condition with which I met her wasn’t exactly palatable. If the scars stayed, her fucking beauty might be gone.I only wished that her face was battered and more injured than what I saw. Nevertheless, that was not to say that I wasn’t bitter and downright jealous with the way Keith was protectively and possessively hovering around Mia. For the first time since I knew Keith, and since he founded the Institute, he was placing someone or something above it.Keith would kill to keep the Institute going, and that was one of the reasons I had hurried down here to give him the news. A part of me had suspected that Saint wouldn’t have told Keith, and I wasn’t wrong. Heck, I didn’t even know if Saint knew about the young l
