All Chapters of The Mafia's Slave: Claimed By My Stepbrother: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

KEITH I stood there for a few seconds more, unable to move or even do anything.My blood was cold with rage.Flashes of Drane went through my head.He was ambitious, respectful, and didn’t want to indulge himself in anything illegal.After I was eventually able to take him to the Institute, I didn’t even get the chance to know him better, because I had had to go and rescue Mia from the hands of those damned sex traders. And now, he is gone, brutally and ruthlessly murdered.Fuck, he was just a freaking teenager!The stench was nothing compared to the pain I was feeling deep in my chest for this.My breathing became ragged and labored.“I will find who did this and make him pay, I promise you, Drane,” I vowed.A tear slide down my cheeks.The last time I shed any tears was when my mum passed, and ever since, I had become stony and cold, and I never thought anything would ever bring tears to my eyes. As a matter of fact, I never thought that I still had emotions and tears left inside

MIA“Where is Keith?” I blurted.Being in the presence of Saint Alexander felt really awkward, and that was the first thing that came to my head.Instead of answering my question, he looked at Cain and said, “Leave us.”Somehow, the thought of being alone with Saint didn’t sit well with me. The moment he said those words, I became instantly uncomfortable. I looked at Cain, hoping he would stay.Cain hesitated, but Saint meant what he said.“Leave us, Cain,” Saint ordered more firmly.I pleaded with Cain with my eyes, but Cain bowed slightly, turned, and walked out through the door.I swallowed hard as I looked at Saint, telling myself not to get intimidated by him.“Why did you ask him to leave?” I asked Saint, trying to sound brave and confident. “He is my bodyguard and has been assigned to be with me all the time,” I added.Saint smirked.“Cain is under my authority as well,” he said.“No, he is under Keith’s,” I argued.Saint’s smirk deepened.“Keith, huh?” He asked coyly and sugg

KEITH I went back to the Institute and locked myself up in my office to brood over the last couple of hours. The dealer…Those were Rainbow’s words, and he couldn’t have been wrong. Rainbow knew everything that transpired in the street, and he wouldn’t tell lies. The dread in his eyes when he had said it. The fear and panic, and that was because we both knew what it meant.I had successfully taken out the dealer, but this time around, someone else had emerged to pick up from where he stopped.My mind flashed back to a few years ago when everything changed drastically and I had to make the biggest decision of my life. After Von Quavo took me out of the street even though I still had a father, unlike the other lads, and I had begun working for him, I came up with the idea of starting an Institute, and I had gone to the one man who I now saw and called Father.“You said you wanted to see me, Keith,” Von has said. “What is this about?” He asked.He made me comfortable around him even t

KEITH And just like that, I had established the Institute with the help of Von Quavo.He stood by his word when he said he would give me everything I needed, and he did.However, I also had to work for every single favor and help I received from him. Von never wanted that. He wanted to give me everything on a platter, but I rejected it.“You have done enough for me already, and I don’t want to be that man who depended solely on other people to make a living for himself,” I had told Von firmly.Then with a proud smile, he patted me at the back.“You always make me proud. I could never have chosen the right person to carry on my name, Keith,” Von had stated.The first year hadn’t been easy, but I didn’t give up.I already had a vision of what I wanted to achieve, and I was determined to. Some of the lads wanted more money than what they would earn at the Institute, and so they left after a while to join the Dealer, not minding the fact that his money came from drugs and took their liv

MIAI stayed locked up in the room that was given to me, still shaken from what happened to me a while ago.I hugged my body tightly, and tears gathered in my eyes.I couldn’t even explain how I found my way back to the room without missing it.When I heard a knock on the door, I jumped in fright.“Who is there?” I asked fearfully.I was afraid that it was Saint who had found me all the way to the bedroom. I recalled seeing blood when I hit his forehead with the statue, but then again, I didn’t stay long enough to find out if I actually killed him or if it was just a mere wound.What if he was here to finish off what he started or even take revenge for what I did to him?“Who is there?” I asked when the knock persisted.“It’s Cain,” his deep and rich voice floated into the room.I felt a flood of relief, but it vanished as quickly as it came.They were all working together. They were all in the same gang. What if Saint had reported to Cain and he was here to mete out some sort of puni
