All Chapters of The Mafia's Don Plus Size Bride : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

My head started to pound so hard I thought I saw actual stars. The loud music in the club blurred into a strange hum."what did you just say Marcus?" I barked into the phone, my voice shaking.Marcus did not hesitate. "Kate is pulling her stitches apart, Don Lorenzo. She has locked herself in the bedroom, and the guards can see blood spreading across the floor from under the door."I turned on my heel immediately, my heart racing at a terrifying speed. All the fury I had been carrying all night vanished, replaced instantly by pure, suffocating panic."She locked the door too, Boss," Marcus added quickly over the receiver. "It looks really bad""Break the damn door down!" I roared into the phone, walking as fast as I could toward the club exit. "Get inside right now and take her straight to the hospital!"I was still rushing through the narrow hallway when a tall man stepped directly in front of me, blocking my path.I recognized him immediately. He was a shift business partner I had d

I lay in the sterile hospital bed, staring up at the white ceiling tile. My whole body felt heavy, sore, and empty. A quiet voice deep inside my head kept telling me that Lorenzo was just bluffing. He was angry and desperate to scare me, but surely he would never force me onto an international flight while I was still bleeding and weak.Marcus sat silently on the chair in the corner of the room. He did not leave my side even once, his jaw set in a firm, rigid line. I barely spoke a word to him. I had not heard a single peep from my father or Chloe since the incident, and the silence from my family felt like a cold stone in my chest.The morning sun crept through the thin blinds, bringing a new day. Marcus stood up from his chair, adjusting his dark suit jacket."We are leaving today, Kate," Marcus said softly, his tone completely flat, not carrying it's usual warmth. "Get ready."A sharp pain shot through my heart. I closed my eyes, unable to believe that Lorenzo was really doing this

I stood outside the grand estate, the cold night air biting against my face as I pressed the phone tightly to my ear. The pilot’s voice answered on the second ring, loud over the speaker."Don Lorenzo," he said."Where is the jet right now?" I demanded, my tone raw and sharp. "Find a stop and turn the plane around immediately!""Boss, we had to make a scheduled refuel stop," the pilot explained quickly. "We are still inside the country, but we have not left the national airspace yet."A tight knot formed deep in my stomach, pulling harder with every second. "Put Marcus on the line right now.""Marcus is not on board, sir," the pilot replied, sounding confused. "He and Miss Kate got into a car and drove off the tarmac nearly three hours ago. I assumed you knew about the ground transfer."My heart stopped for a single beat before hammering violently against my ribs. "Send me your exact location right now!""Sending it to your phone immediately, Don Lorenzo," the pilot said.I hung up wi

The rough fabric of the blindfold rubbed against my skin as two guards dragged me out into the cold night air. I stumbled over the uneven gravel, my legs shaking, before they shoved me hard into the back seat of a waiting car. The heavy door slammed shut, locking me in darkness.My heart beat wildly in my chest, a terrifying rhythm echoing in my ears. It felt like my life was just moving from one awful problem to another, and this time, I had no idea who could possibly save me. I did not even know where I was on the map, but I knew for sure that Lorenzo was far away.We drove for what felt like endless hours. Every bump on the road sent a sharp, agonizing stab through my healing stitches, making me gasp silently behind the dark cloth. Regretting terribly why I had ripped my stitches earlier, the wound was still fresh and it hurt like hell.Finally, the car ground to a sudden halt. The door opened, and strong hands hoisted me out into the damp night. They dragged me through a creaky wo

I sprinted back to my car, my lungs burning as I threw open the driver door and slammed my foot onto the gas pedal. As the engine roared down the empty highway, I hit the speed dial on my steering wheel, calling my elite security team."Boss?" my tactical captain answered immediately."Send every available man to the industrial sector on the south border!" I said over the engine noise. "Surround the perimeter, try to get here as fast as you can but do not move in until I give the order. Bring the police if you have to""Understood, Don Lorenzo!"I continued the drive, my eyes hurting as I grind my teeth, all of this was a mess a big mess, I didn't think Marcus took this so personal I finally arrived at the coordinates. It was a desolate, empty expanse near an old rail line. I killed the headlights, jumped out of the car, and grabbed a second handgun from under the seat.I looked around the dark, open space, my heart hammering against my ribs. There was nowhere to hide, just flat grou
