Captured And Claimed By The Mafia Don Chapter 13: A Day, A Promise, and a Storm Brewing
Kimberly POV Enzo soon called to tell me it was time to leave. I was glad I came. It had been a good day already.Luciana clung to my cargo pants as I tried to go. “It’s okay, she’ll come visit another time,” Emily said, trying to coax her daughter. Lucy reluctantly let go, but the tears in her eyes nearly undid me. “Babies—they’re so sweet,” I murmured, bending down to hug her. “You’ll come again, huh?” she whispered, her lip trembling. “Pinky promise,” she said, thrusting her tiny finger toward me. I laughed softly and hooked my pinky around hers. “Pinky promise,” I whispered, meaning it. I already saw family here, even if they weren’t supposed to be mine. Behind me, Enzo cleared his throat. I shot him to look sharp enough to cut glass. I understood their rules—emotions weren’t encouraged. But was he really this heartless? I hissed under my breath and gave Emily a final hug before following him out the door. In the car, I noticed the food flask beside me. Emily had

Kimberly POV I knew I wasn’t supposed to talk to this person, but curiosity got the better of me. At first, I tried to ignore the strange message—some random person offering me help out of nowhere—but something in the words pulled at me. “Help.” The idea of escaping this life, of leaving Leonardo and this sick life behind, was too tempting to resist. So, I opened the message and replied. “Who is this?” I typed. The response came almost instantly, making my heart skip. “Someone who can help you.” Help. The word wrapped around me like a lifeline, and suddenly, I couldn’t let go. Help meant hope. It meant a way out. “How?” I typed quickly, my fingers trembling slightly as I hit send. “I can help you leave that place,” came the reply. My chest tightened, and I sat up straighter on the bed, now wide awake. The weight I carried every day—the helplessness, the suffocation—shifted, just a little. Could this really be the way out? “Help me leave here? How?” There was a pause,

The night before That evening, I lay in bed, staring at the ceiling as my mind spun in circles. The air in the room felt too thick, pressing down on my chest like a weight I couldn’t escape. The phone beside me glowed faintly in the dark, a reminder that everything I knew was about to change. Sleep teased the edges of my mind, but it refused to stay. My thoughts raced. What if I had gone too far? What if there was no way back? Just as I felt myself slipping into unconsciousness, the phone buzzed, sharp and intrusive. I grabbed it with shaky fingers. A message from S. "Just a little push. Tomorrow, everything will change."I swallowed hard, my throat dry. I wanted to believe I'm just not doing the wrong thing.The Next Morning The moment my eyes opened, my hand instinctively reached for my phone. Lately, checking my I*******m has become a reflex—since I met s. Today was no different. I scrolled mindlessly until a message from S appeared, waiting for me like a coiled snake."You'

Kimberly POV A sharp sting jolted me awake, pain searing through my back. I blinked, struggling to piece together what was happening, as the sound of gunshots broke through the haze, bringing me back to reality.“Kimberly.” My name floated through the chaos, barely audible.“Kimberly!” The voice came again, louder this time, unmistakable. Leonardo. I could pick out his voice anywhere.Gritting my teeth, I made a feeble attempt to stand, but it was futile. The stone crumbled instantly under my fingers, tumbling down in a dusty heap. The mansion was nothing but rubble now, reduced to mere debris.Another explosion ripped through the air, and I stumbled back to the ground, clutching my side as pain flared up my spine.I forced myself up again, only to see Leonardo rushing toward me. But a pile of fallen bricks had already risen between us, forming an impassable wall.I couldn’t go out, and he couldn’t get in. All around me, the walls continued to cave, pieces collapsing one after anothe

Leonardo POV I rested my head on the desk, the world around me fading as the conversation with Salvatore played on repeat in my mind. His voice was so clear, full of malice, too alive in my thoughts, and every word was like a fresh reminder that he never left.****** The Day Of The Explosion I was sipping my morning coffee when my phone buzzed. It was an unknown number. I picked it up regardless.Silence hung in the air before a voice cut through it—cold, smooth, and maddeningly familiar.“Hello, Mr. Leonardo,” he greeted.The sound of his voice was enough to make my blood run cold. I gripped the edge of the table, forcing myself to stay calm. “Salvatore.”“Nardo,” he purred, his tone thick with mockery. Only Salvatore called me that, his favourite insult hidden under a thin layer of sarcasm.“So quick to remember me”My teeth clenched, jaw tight. “What do you want?”“Ah, straight to business, as always.” He chuckled—a low, grating sound that made me clench my fist around the coffe

Kimberly POV A week had passed since we relocated to the mansion in the southern part of Spain. It was grand, imposing, just like the previous one. Talking about that, the name of the man responsible for my turmoil had finally reached my ears—Salvatore. The realisation twisted in my gut like a cruel joke.Days earlier, Luca had demanded my I*******m login after my phone was shattered, taking with it the last shred of privacy I clung to.. Together, we scrolled through my exchanges with Salvatore, each line a reminder of my recklessness. Mario and Enzo looked on, their silence heavier than words. Enzo’s gaze, hard with judgement, sliced like a knife.Suddenly, Leonardo rose from his chair, the scrape of wood against marble slicing through the tense silence. He walked over to the bar, pouring himself a glass of wine, his jaw clenched."I'm wondering why you never left," he said quietly, his voice low but laced with accusation.My breath caught. "Left? And go where, Leonardo? You took eve

Kimberly POV One thing my father taught me was the importance of keeping the flowers tidy. Yet, as I scanned the garden, I couldn't help but notice the neglect—overgrown edges, untrimmed blooms. It irked me, especially with a splitting headache pounding behind my eyes, but tending to the flowers offered a strange kind of solace, a brief reprieve from the storm in my head.Monica's presence gnawed at me, an itch that refused to be ignored. What kind of personal assistant follows her boss home? The way they had interacted that night, anyone could see the familiarity was far more than professional. Lost in thought, I didn't even realize when my clippers slid too far, nicking my nail against a thorn. The sudden sting snapped me back, just as a familiar voice cut through the quiet.“Be careful,” Leonardo called out, his voice sharp enough to make me jolt.Blood welled up from the cut, trailing down my finger, and a wave of dizziness washed over me. Before I could react, Leonardo was beside

Kimberly POV “You… You killed your own mom?” I asked, taken aback, barely able to get the words out.I knew he was ruthless, but this… this was beyond anything I’d expected.His face darkened, eyes narrowing. “Leave.”“I…”“Get out, Kimberly.!”Without a second thought, I scrambled out, heart pounding, and left him to his brooding silence. I hurried down the hall, needing air, needing answers, and found myself in the kitchen where Helen was working quietly.“Helen,” I called, my voice coming out as a whisper.She looked up, a mixture of worry and something I couldn’t place etched across her face.“You’ve been working here for years, right?” I asked, wanting to be sure she was someone I could trust for the truth.“Yes, ma’am,” she said, nodding slowly.“Leonardo… did he really kill his own mom?” I kept my voice low, watching her carefully.Her reaction was immediate; her eyes widened in shock, her brow furrowed deeply. “Who told you such a lie?” she asked, bewildered.“Leonardo told me

“No! Don’t touch me!” I snapped, jerking away from the strangers who claimed to be my parents. My chest heaved, and my voice cracked, but I held my ground.“Kimberly, please…” the woman said, her voice trembling as tears welled in her eyes. Her hands stretched toward me, trembling slightly, as if unsure I wouldn’t flinch away again.“You… you even know my name?” I hissed, narrowing my eyes. “How is that possible?”The man, tall and broad with streaks of gray in his hair, stepped forward. “Because we're the ones who gave you that name.” he said, his voice heavy with emotion. I froze. The weight of his words hit me like a freight train. My knees threatened to give way, but I squared my shoulders, refusing to let my guard down. “If that’s true, if you’re really my parents, then how did you lose me? How could you leave me for twenty-four years?” My voice rose with each word, my fury bubbling over. “Why now? Why come back now?”The woman, named Nancy, as the man called earlier, opened her

Leonardo pov I slammed my fist on the desk, the sharp pain cutting through my hand. It didn’t matter. Nothing did at this moment. My anger, raw and untamed, burned hotter with every tick of the clock hanging on the wall. Seven days. Seven long days since Kimberly escaped. Seven days of searching without a single trace.Was I more furious that she dared to run or worried that she had nowhere to go? My jaw tightened as I shoved the thought aside.I stormed out of the study, my footsteps echoing through the hallway like thunder."Enzo!" I barked.He appeared from around the corner, bowing slightly. "Yes, Boss. I was just about to report to you.""What did you find?" I demanded, my voice sharp enough to slice through steel.Enzo shifted uncomfortably. "We're still searching, Boss. My team just returned from her father's house. There’s no sign of her there."In one swift motion, I grabbed him by the collar and pulled him close. "I told you not to step foot in this house unless you had he

Kimberly's POV“Thirty minutes are over, ma’am,” Enzo called, peeping through the door.I hastily wiped my tears, hoping he hadn’t heard what I whispered moments ago.Taking a deep breath, I rose to my feet, taking a last glance at Emily.“Goodbye, Emily,” I murmured under my breath before turning to leave.Enzo trailed behind me as we walked to the car. The weight of his presence made my skin crawl, but I kept my composure until we reached the parking lot.I need to use the bathroom. I’m pressed,” I said abruptly, not waiting for his response as I spun around and walked briskly back into the hospital.From the corner of my eye, I saw him follow. I switched lanes, heading away from the quiet VIP section he had brought me through earlier. The bustling regular hallway, filled with patients, visitors, and nurses, provided the perfect cover.“Madam, you’re moving the wrong…”I didn’t let him finish. I ran.“Madam!” Enzo called, his voice stern and alarmed.I didn’t look back. My heart rac

Kimberly POV Leonardo released me from grounding after the recent threat, but I wondered if it had done any good. The freedom felt useless, especially with Monica around. If anything, I wished I’d stayed grounded forever, locked away from the chaos she brought.“Lucy,” I called softly, my voice raw from the weight of unspoken words.Her glare was sharp, cutting through me before she turned and walked toward the dining room where Monica was seated. Monica’s presence seemed to draw her in like a magnet, dangerous, but irresistible.“What now?” Monica asked, her voice dripping with condescension. "You want to turn out just like that did to the mother?"The words hit me like a slap, but I refused to react. If there's anything I want today, it was to avoid Drama. And Today wasn’t the day for drama.I can't even bring myself to cry anymore without having a severe headache.“When is my mom going to wake up?” Lucy asked, her voice small but laced with hope as she looked up at Monica.

Kimberly's POVI woke up feeling like I hadn’t slept at all. My body was heavy, my mind clouded, and for a brief moment, I debated staying in bed all day. After all, it's not like I'm allowed to leave the room. Dragging myself to the bathroom, I splashed cold water on my face, hoping it would snap me out of the haze. It didn’t. I stared at my reflection for a moment, frowning at the pale, tired woman looking back at me.“You’re fine,” I whispered to myself. “you will survive this, kim.”With a sigh, I picked the toothpaste to brush my teeth and freshen up.When I returned, I opened my closet, scanning for something simple yet comforting. My fingers settled on a soft cotton gown. Standing before the vanity mirror, I raised the gown, turning from side to side. I checked to see if a bump might have grown from yesterday to now. But it was still as flat as ever.A knock at the door startled me. My heart leapt. "That must be Helen," I murmured, lowering the gown and smoothing its fabric.

Kimberly POV.The five minutes I spent waiting for the pregnancy result were the longest minutes in my entire life."Damnit," I mumbled to myself as I continued madly looking down at the strip."NO!" I screamed in horror as the two pink lines shone brightly without mistake.I quickly used my hands to cover my mouth. "No no..." I shivered.I guess I had screamed too loudly because I heard someone knocking on the door. I splashed water on my face and quickly hid the strip in tissue paper.'There might be a mistake,' I thought hopefully before going back into the room."Helen, are you there?" I called out."It's Enzo, here ma'am," I heard Enzo's thick voice and I sighed in relief."I heard you scream, is everything okay ma'am?" he said again."Um... Yes. I'm fine. Was just startled earlier. Thanks.”My mind was racing. I rushed back to the bathroom, unwrapped the test strip from the tissue paper. My heart sank at the revelation. It didn't change.I left the bathroom, without bothering t

Kimberly POV "Leo, Monica shouldn't be with Lucy!" I screamed the moment he stepped into my room. My voice cracked, but I pushed through the fear that was rising in my chest.Leonardo shut the door behind him with a deliberate slowness, his face cold and unreadable. He hadn't been home all week, not since Emily slipped into a coma. Now that he was here, I wanted to do nothing but talk it all out."And who should she be with?" he asked, his voice sharp as a blade. "You?"I faltered. His tone sliced through my confidence, but I pressed on. "Monica doesn’t mean well, Leo. She doesn’t want us to…"“There is no ‘us,’ Kimberly!” he snapped, cutting me off. His voice was a roar that echoed in the room. "I regret ever letting you think there was."I flinched as his words struck me like a slap. "Leo..." I whispered, but my voice wavered, the tears I fought so hard to suppress threatening to spill.He took a step closer, his towering figure looming over me. His eyes burned with anger, and I in

Kimberly's POV"Don't you dare!" Leonardo’s voice lashed out the moment I approached the hospital entrance.He stood tall, blocking the doorway like an unmovable wall. His eyes burned with fury, and his clenched fists told me he had no intention of letting me pass."At least…just let me see her," I pleaded, my voice breaking under the weight of pain and desperation."Get out of here, Kimberly." His tone was ice-cold, slicing through the small shred of hope I’d held on to."I didn’t know, I didn’t mean for any of this to happen!" I tried again, the lump in my throat making it hard to speak.Leonardo’s jaw tightened, his glare digging into me. "She was so good to you, Kimberly. Is this how you repay her?"I opened my mouth to respond, but another voice cut through the tension."She has a way of hurting the people who care about her, doesn’t she?" Monica stepped out from the shadows, her lips curling into a smug smile. Her words dripped with malice, and her presence alone ignited my rag

What's going on?”Leonardo didn’t answer her. Instead, his sharp gaze was fixed on me. “Kimberly, calm down and explain…”“Explain?” I laughed bitterly. “Explain? You want me to explain how
