FORCED TO BE A MAFIA QUEEN のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 141 - チャプター 150

SIERRAI ran as fast as I could, afraid that the armed man would literally kill me because I knew how mad Logan was. Every time a distant boom or a rattle of gunfire echoed from the mansion, I flinched as my heart leapt into my throat. The air smelled of pine and damp earth, but all I could taste was the metallic tang of the smoke rising behind me.​I stumbled toward the extraction point Alessandro had told me about. I felt a crushing weight of guilt. Alessandro was back there, fighting a war, while I was running. Well, I'm just following Alessandro’s order.But then, I stopped in my tracks when I saw a figure at the edge of a small clearing, bathed in the pale morning light. My heart surged with a strange relief.​"Airra?" I breathed.​She was leaning against an oak tree. How did she escape? Why was she here instead of running for the road? I don't know, but I felt a desperate need to make sure she was okay.​"You made it out," I cautiously stepped forward while showing my hands,

ALESSANDROI couldn't move as my world was spinning at her unexpected words.​"I'm not leaving you, Sierra," my voice cracking with a desperation I've never allowed the world to see. "I don't care what he's fed you. He's only using you to get to me."​"Is he?" she bites back, stepping forward into the light of the porch. The coldness in her eyes shatters, replaced by a searing, incandescent rage. "Or is he the only one who finally stopped treating me like a doll to be managed? You lied to me! You told me I was pregnant! You let me plan a life for a child that never existed!"My breath caught in my throat.​"I did it to keep you safe!" I roar, the defense jumping from my throat before I can stop it. "The Council was whispering, Sierra! They wanted an heir, or they wanted you gone. I bought us time! I bought you a shield!"​"And Airra?" she screams, her voice echoing off the stone walls of the mansion. "You told me she tried to kill me in that fire! You told me she was the reason for th

SIERRAThe guest room was a tomb of velvet and gold, but it lacked the one thing that had ever made me feel safe. A lock I could trust.​I stood by the window, watching the moonlight bleed across the gardens as my mind raced through the weaknesses I’d spotted at dinner. I was startled by the heavy click of the door. Logan walked in, already shedding his suit jacket, his eyes darkened with a proprietary hunger that made my skin prickle.​"This isn't your room, Logan," I said, my voice remarkably steady despite the sudden, frantic drumming of my heart.​"In this house, every room is mine," he replied, walking toward me. He stopped just inches away as his shadow loomed over me. "And so are you. I saved you from a man who lived to deceive you. It’s time you showed your gratitude."​A cold choking panic flared in my throat. I had to think fast.​"I can't," I whispered, forcing a look of fragile pain into my eyes. I turned slightly, gesturing to my back. "My back is not healed yet, Logan. E

SIERRAI stood at the foot of the stairs as my pulse was pounding in my throat. I watched them still busy with their firearms and planning to attack Alessandro.​"Where is Airra?" one of the armed men barked, looking around frantically. "She has the revised coordinates!"​"She already went down," I tried to tremble my voice with the perfect pitch of a woman who had been bullied into submission. "She scolded me upstairs, grabbed a map, and told me not to follow her. She seemed... manic."​Logan cursed silently. When he pulled out his phone to call her, I swallowed hard. If she answered, I'm dead. But suddenly, a muffled vibration hummed through the nearby couch cushions. Oh, great God! Thank goodness!She had left it behind in her haste to fix the map.​"Idiot woman," Logan hissed, shoving his phone back into his pocket and turning to his men. "We don't have time to hunt her down. We have the backup map. Let's move and end this tonight."​He stepped toward me and gripped my wrist. "

SIERRAThe world went black for a terrifying second as the ground vanished beneath us. We hit the bottom of the hidden pit with a groan as the scent of damp moss and rotted leaves filled my lungs.​Pain exploded through my shoulder and ribs, but I didn't let out a sound. But ​Airra let out a sharp gasp as her wounded leg twisted in the fall. Before the sound could leave her throat, I lunged through the darkness, pinning her against the muddy wall of the pit and slamming my palm over her mouth. ​"Don't," I hissed into her ear. Her eyes went wide with agony and terror in the moonlight that filtered through the hole above. "If you make a noise, they will find us. Endure it, Airra."​She nodded frantically as her body was trembling violently under mine. I could feel the warm, sticky pulse of her blood seeping through her dress and onto my skin, but I didn't move.We heard a crunch of boots on dry pine needles that stopped right at the edge of the pit.​"They disappeared here. The blood
