All Chapters of Falling For The Enemy Mafia King : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Aurora I stare around Luca’s apartment in wonder. It’s huge. It’s at the top of a building, and it reminds me of one of those ads for modern apartments. On the way here, I noticed the guards. They were watching me carefully and with curiosity. Their weapons are hidden under their suits jackets, but I know they have them. The door beeped when Luca opened it, so there’s an alarm and tons of security. We should be safe here... at least until my father finds out or Luca figures out who I really am, which I hope won’t happen. “Come.” Luca places his hand on my back and steers me into the living room. “I’ll give you the tour of the apartment later. You look like you need something to drink and eat.” “That would be nice.” I couldn’t eat anything today because I was both too stressed and too nauseated to do it. “What would you like? My personal cook is in the kitchen. She can make you whatever you want.” “Um...” Having so much choice all of a sudden is overwhelming. “Maybe some lemonad

Luca“You know,”Theo says as we’re on our way to the meeting room, “when I heard you were at your apartment at this hour, I thought someone was joking. Or that something was very wrong. I was right about the latter. What isshedoing here?”“She had nowhere else to go, and I want her here. That should be enough of an explanation, and I’m giving it to you only because you’re my friend.”“But did you find out who she is? Because I’ve seen the reports, and there’s nothing about her anywhere! She might be working for your enemy, and you bring her straight here to this building and to your apartment! Are you out of your mind?”“She’s pregnant.”Theo gapes at me like a fish as I open the door to the meeting room. Alessandro is alone and pacing up and down the room.We don’t have meetings here very often, especially because I live here, so it’s not advisable to bring too much attention to this building. But I’m sure Alessandro was careful. If I were inviting Brando over, I’d tell him to meet m

AuroraWhen I open my eyes,the first thing I see is Luca’s face. He’s sitting in the chair across from the bed, watching me.“Hey,” he says softly, a smile spreading across his lips.“Hey.” I smile back, pushing myself up. “Sorry. I fell asleep in your bed.”“Why are you sorry? I like you in my bed.” He gets up and stalks toward me. “We can always continue where we left off. If you like me as much as I like you, there’s no reason for us to hold back. But I have to warn you. I’m not a good guy.”“Why do you think that? If you weren’t a good guy, I wouldn’t be here.”He sits on the bed next to me. “The things that I do... I killed many people, Aurora. That’s what I’m saying.”“How many?” My voice is almost a whisper.He shrugs. “Who knows at this point?”“Were they bad people?”“If you wonder if they were in the mafia, like me, then yes. I’ll understand if you don’t want to stay with me. You don’t have to be afraid to tell me the truth. I can handle it. I can find you an apartment where

But maybe it is. Maybe that’s why Aurora lied to me about who she was. Maybe that’s why she didn’t run screaming when I told her I was a mafia boss.I rake my hand through my hair, nearly ripping out a few strands. It’s been years since I was last tempted to take a little something to make me feel better, but now I wish I could just forget this is all happening.“Aw fuck,” Theo mutters.“What?”“I had the tech team check the records of that particular college Julia is supposed to be attending and then check what we have on the people who we know work for Marcello.” His gaze meets mine. “It’s real. I mean, Julia’s parents work for Marcello, or at least her father does. He was seen with Marcello at an event.”The world collapses around me. It’s been shattered into pieces, and the sharp shards are cutting me everywhere.“Marcello played me. He... Maybe he didn’t even want his daughter to marry Cole Jr. He wanted us to think that while he... He wants to...” I can’t breathe.“But that does

“I’m yours!” My breath comes out in little gasps as he pounds into me, and there’s so much pleasure coursing through my body that it feels like I’m on a completely different plane of existence.Luca will forgive me, or at least I hope he will. If he didn’t give a damn about me, he wouldn’t be holding onto me right now. I’d be dead already.My release hits me with so much force that it knocks my breath out of me. Tiny pinpricks of pleasure race through my body as Luca grunts. He collapses on top of me and envelops me like a warm blanket.We just stay like that for a bit, just trying to catch our breaths. Then Luca rolls off me, and I shift on my side so I can look at him.“I hate that I love you,” he says softly, brushing a strand of my hair out of my face.The darkness still dances in his eyes, but there’s some warmth and light in there now too.“I’m sorry about how things went. I really wish I wasn’t a Valentino, but we can’t choose our parents,” I say.He extends his arm and pulls m
