All Chapters of Entangled With The Mafia Underboss : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Chapter 21{CATERINA}I didn't sleep a wink.I couldn't bring myself to close my eyes for more than five minutes because I was crippled with fear. Fear that Lorenzo could command Alessandro to kill me off since I wasn't useful to them.I sat in a corner of the cell, my knees to my chest as I thought about everything that had been happening over the past week. If I had been told that I would be locked up in a cell after going on a seemingly successful mission, I woul have laughed in the person's face. But here I was. Trapped in a filthy cell like a worthless person.Several hours passed, and the only indication I had to know that the night was over was the golden-light pouring in through the small window in the cell. I yawned as I noticed the light, and at that moment, I noticed how heavy my eyelids were. I really needed to sleep, and if I kept the no sleeping streak up, I might actually die in this cell. And to me, that was the worst way to die.I rested my head against the wall, and

Chapter 23{CATERINA}I spent the next few hours with Maria, talking about anything and everything. She stayed with me even after I had finished my meal, and her company was a breath of fresh air. I didn't feel so congested with her beisde me, and our conversations were the most fun I had had in a while. Her stories from back when she was younger with her siblings and mother were very hilarious, and it made me wish I had siblings. Heck, it made me miss a mother I never even got a chance to meet.It had been a while since Maria left, and then, I was alone again. Everything around me was silent, and I was consumed with my own thoughts. All the while I was with Maria, I was thinking, trying to come up with a way to escape this hellhole.I hadn't seen Alessandro since he came to my cell in the morning, so I thought it was safe to assume he wouldn't be coming to my cell till tomorrow morning. I also didn't hear the chatter of the guards like I usually did so I guessed that they hadn't come

Chapter 25{ALESSANDRO}Caterina was beginning to become more of a problem than I could have ever imagined. The woman was insufferable, and it seemed like she took joy in frustrating the hell out of me. I admired how resilient and relentless she was, though. She had said she wouldn't be locked up in a cell like a prisoner, and she stayed true to her words. She was even crazy enough to pick a lock with a fork. She was batshit crazy.I could now see why I was drawn to her the night I saw her at the club. It felt like something called to me as soon as I saw her sitting alone that night in that golden dress, her platinum silver hair and beautiful face commanding attention. Literally every man in the club was looking at her that night, but it didn't seem like she noticed. She must know how gorgeous she was since it seemed like she was used to that kind of attention from men and be strong enough to ignore them.She might've been there because she had an ulterior motive, but there was no den

Chapter 27{CATERINA}Several minutes of silence passed between me and Alessandro after he reminded me of my place in his house. I sat quietly, seething as I watched him continue his work. He looked extremely exhausted as he typed away on his laptop, and he had yawned at least five times over the span of fifteen minutes. I wondered what the hell he was doing that prevented him from going to bed. Was being an Underboss that tasking? What the hell did they even do?Seeing as he probably wouldn't leave his desk till daybreak, I decided to save him from his own misery. “Alessandro,” I called his name, feigning a loud yawn as I stretched my body. I wasn't actually tired. I had slept enough during the day so I could pretty much stay awake for several more hours before I would feel tired again, but I had to save Alessandro from himself.“What do you want?” He asked without as much as giving me a glance, his voice low with his eyes trained on his laptop screen.“I'm feeling very sleepy, and I

Chapter 29{ALESSANDRO}“Are you seriously asking me to give you my clothes?” I asked tentatively, trying to make sure I heard her correctly.“I'm not saying you should give me your clothes, in asking you to borrow me your old clothes for the time being. Those are two different things.” Caterina responded, her voice dripping with frustration. I don't know, but they sounded like the same thing to me. But that was irrelevant. What mattered was the fact that Caterina would be wearing my clothes. I was looking forward to seeing what she would look like in them seeing as I was taller and bigger than she was.“I see absolutely no difference in what you're saying, but I understand you. Are you sure my clothes are your best option, though? You could wait till morning to get some clothes.” I spoke, and she shook her head.“I can't wait till morning. It doesn't make sense for me to be in nothing but a towel for several hours. It's uncomfortable, so yeah, your clothes are my best option.” She re
