Semua Bab my mafia brother-in-law, stole my heart: Bab 1 - Bab 10

Luca peered through the scope, observing the bustling plaza filled with people oblivious to the lurking danger, engrossed in their phones as life slipped past them. Then he spotted her; she bought a bouquet from the elderly woman with the bucket. A gust of wind blew her hair across her face. She adjusted it just as the target appeared behind her. Luca aimed carefully. With a single pull of the trigger, the man collapsed to the ground. Sirens approached as he departed. Their eyes met briefly before she turned back to the commotion. Luca retrieved his burner phone and quickly sent a text: Done. Bella remained frozen in place until the ambulance eventually drove off with the man. Her phone vibrated in her pocket."Hello, Dad?""Come home immediately. We need to discuss something."Bella pushed open the heavy oak doors of the family estate, greeted by the familiar chill that lingered in the marble foyer regardless of season. Sunlight struggled through the heavy drapes, barely illuminatin

Her dress was made of simple white satin, and her hair was adorned with baby's breath, flowing loosely down her back. She carried a bouquet of white calla lilies. As she walked down the aisle and met his gaze, she silently pleaded with him to put an end to this madness. The ceremony was a blur, and before she knew it, chaos erupted. Gunshots rang out, screams filled the air, and bullets whizzed by. Bella reached for Damon, who pulled her close and shielded her with his body. She spotted Lucas’s bleeding on the floor. Damon, covering her, drew his gun. Bella clutched her ears, tears streaming down her face. When Damon ran out of bullets, he was shot in the arm. He turned to Bella and said, "Stay here. I need more guns. Don't move." Silence fell over the room. She peeked and saw a man aiming a gun at the back of Damon's head. Bella grabbed a chair and struck the man with all her strength. Amid the distraction, Damon seized the man's gun and shot him in the head. Sirens wailed in the dis

He dropped her off in the driveway and drove away. Bella made her way to the cabin and knocked on the door. Damon opened it, pulled her inside, and kissed her, leaving her breathless."I thought you'd changed your mind and were going to kill me out here in the forest,"He chuckled, his expression softening as his dimples appeared, which she adored."I felt bad about how we left things this morning. You know I manage the family business, and having an affair with my sister-in-law isn't exactly ideal.""Wait, having an affair...?"He kissed her again, his hands exploring her body, then pulled back in frustration. "Let's go for a walk and talk," he suggested, extending his hand, which she took.Walking hand in hand through the forest was soothing. He paused to kiss her again."Will I see this side of you back at the house?""Absolutely not," he replied with a smile, placing his hands on her face. "But I promised I'd try, and this is my attempt."Bella wrapped her arms around him. "I love

Thirty minutes later, Elena knocked and entered her room.Elena took Bella’s hand as she began, “Let me tell you a story, a short one. There was a girl once, deeply in love with her best friend. They grew up together, inseparable. Then one day, her father arranged her marriage to an older man. She wept herself to sleep at night. But when the day came and they married, she slowly realized he wasn’t as terrible as she’d thought. He was kind to her. A woman’s heart is as deep as the ocean, and the secrets it holds are hers alone.”Elena’s gaze drifted, lost in the past. She sighed softly. “Now, my dear, could you set up the IV for my son? And he will apologize for his behavior.”“No, it’s really not necessary,” Bella insisted, standing. She followed Elena to Damon’s room.He was on the phone, yelling at someone, but his tone shifted the moment they walked in. He hung up and glanced at his mother.“Mom, I’m fine. Why do you insist on making it your life’s mission to annoy me?”Elena laug

When they landed in Munich, a driver stood holding a sign. Lucas dragged her behind him like luggage. The car pulled up to a massive two-story house, not quite a mansion, but close enough. A maid greeted them at the door."You stay in until I say otherwise," Lucas barked."So, I’m a prisoner now? That’s what you’re telling me?"He laughed, picked up his suitcase, and left without another word.In a way, she was lucky. She didn’t have to see him, and it gave her time to think, to plan. Before she left, she’d gone back to the mansion, slipping into her father’s office. Behind the rows of books, she found a small safe. Inside there was money and a notebook.Bella flipped through the notebook. Her father had sent most of the money to Swiss accounts, three of them. According to the notes, there were over thirty million tucked away. The doorbell startled her, and she quickly hid the notebook behind the bookshelf.Downstairs, she found the maid arguing with a man in his thirties."What’s the
