Mateo Santiago Novels & Stories

Logan I throw the phone on the bed and take my hands through my hair. Christ! What's happening to me? I don't understand myself. I don't even know what I am doing anymore. Having such a mate, I think, is some punishment from the moon goddess. I can't plead guilty because I know I am a sinner. I know that I have options, that I can reject her, and like Arya said, maybe I could get another chance at a new mate. Someone who will want me and is willing to adjust to who I am. I know that very well, but I can't risk losing Arya. I have waited for too long a time to lose her when I have just got her.

Larissa opened her mouth, but I spoke before her and said, “We’ll know the right offer when we see it.” “Well, hello,” said a dry voice. “Can you two ladies serve drinks?” “That depends on who’s asking.” Larissa placed her hands on her hips. “Microdon’s the name, but you can call me Don. I run Coyote Willy, the hottest new bar in Shifter City.”

I have nothing to fight for.”

So I looked away from him and continued walking ahead. “Will you be offended if I ask you something?” Suddenly I asked him, not able to stop the urge to ask. “Of course.” “Do you believe in Mate bond?” He stopped abruptly and looked at me. He kept looking at me for a good moment. As if he was trying to read my face. “It's okay if you ……” “I do. It's a sacred bond and very special to me. You may think, I'm a playboy and sleeping around with the girls. Let me tell you a secret today, I'm still a virgin and waiting for my mate.” I stared at him in utter disbelief.

None of his two colleagues were doing great either. " I agreed with the idea of introducing another monster " Santana said gently.

" For some seconds Mattia didn't speak as he took his time to reply. " Maximo Santino " Stunned totally by Mattia's response, Santana and Carlos shared a horrified glance. " You are kidding, why would you call in a Mafia Boss into this?

It was him. Mateo Santiago.

Four more of my men trailed behind me as we approached Mateo's cell. Mateo is the underboss of Ignacio Reyes. We have been at a war with Ignacio since he butchered my men in cold blood and breached my territory. I don't forgive the blood of my men that easily. I will not fucking rest till I have killed every single man of Reyes's family.

He took over his father, Nicofero Rivera at the age of eighteen, and now, by twenty four, has expanded the family's territory to half of America. He is considered one of the most capable 'Dons' in Rivera history, rivaled only by Salvatore Rivera of the 1960s. His grandfather. I switched the laptop off when I heard Mariano's steps come toward the room. I knew what I wished to know anyway. He opened the door softly, expecting me to be asleep, but smiled as he took in my state. "Find anything of consequence?" He asked as walked to his closet. I shook my head. "Nope. I didn't even Google. I was just checking my emails." I lied.
