Mario X Rosalina Novels & Stories

“My name is Rosalina Fabrizio. If you’re seeing this, it means I failed to dismantle the operation from within.” A pause. “And someone close to me betrayed me.” Talana stopped breathing. “Pablo?” she whispered. Onscreen, Rosalina looked over her shoulder. “It’s Pablo. He made a deal with De Marco and Donatello covering up his gambling addiction. They sold girls, children, in exchange for land, weapons, influence. I was going to expose them. Now I think they know.” Rosalina stepped closer to the camera. “If my daughter ever finds this… Talana, you were always the light in my darkness. Don’t let them win.”

THE WRONG BAIT Don Marco's POV My gaze swept over Rosalia's disheveled form, my expression unreadable. "Madonna, take our heroine inside to the bathroom and give her something to change into," I ordered my maid, with my deep voice firm. "A top and blue jeans. Something practical, then accompany her back to this room." I sharply declared in a low but harsh tone. Madonna nodded and tapped her shoulder. Rosalia stood up with her pale face and followed behind Madonna, all through the fully guarded corridor.

As soon as she walked into the kitchen, Evelina froze, shocked to see that Rosalina was already there, looking fresh and relaxed. “Hey, Evelina,” Rosalina greeted her with a warm smile that left Evelina shocked. Rosalina did not look like a woman who had been afraid of sleeping alone the previous night. Not wanting to look intimidated by Rosalina’s presence, Evelina smiled. “Good morning, Rosalina... I see you look fresh today,” Evelina pointed out. To her surprise, Rosalina smiled again. However, her smile was not normal. She smiled like a villain who was secretly concocting a dangerous plan.
