There was a knock at the door. Dysis sat up from her bed, brushing her hair back. *Who could it be?* "Come in," she called. The door opened, and Selena stepped inside, followed by four other maids. "Good day, Lady Dysis," the maids greeted in unison, bowing respectfully. Selena offered a small smile. "We need to prepare you for a special occasion with the young master." Dysis blinked. *So that’s why he bought all those things… but what’s so special about this occasion?* Still, she knew one thing—she couldn’t refuse. She had been confined to this room ever since their shopping trip, and curiosity gnawed at her. With a silent nod, she allowed them to lead her into the bathroom. As they carefully removed her clothes, the warm air brushed against her bare skin, highlighting its smooth, milky tone. The maids worked efficiently, their movements practiced yet gentle, as if handling something precious.Steam curled through the air, thick with the scent of lavender and jasmine. The wa

Dysis looked up at him, searching his face for some sort of explanation, for anything that made this moment make sense. Her voice came out barely above a whisper. “You… you dedicated an entire brand to me?” Alexander’s gaze remained steady. “You said you needed a shop.”Her mouth fell open. “What? Alex, I didn’t mean that! I was just saying the things you bought were too—”“I already did it the same day I bought you the shoes,” he interrupted smoothly, leaving no room for protest.Her heart pounded. It wasn’t just a gift. It wasn’t just some extravagant whim. This was bigger. This was a statement. A declaration to the world that she was someone to be acknowledged, someone to be respected. That she was his. Dysis swallowed, feeling the weight of it all settle over her. “Why?” The question slipped out before she could stop it. “Why would you do this?” Alexander didn’t answer right away. Instead, he extended a pen toward her, his voice softer now, almost coaxing. “Sign it, Dysis.”

The ballroom shone with gold and white hues, as crystal chandeliers cast a soft glow upon the guests, whose laughter and conversation resonated throughout the space. The string quartet performed gently in the background, a calming melody that seemed to wrap around the room like a comforting embrace. But for Dysis, everything felt overwhelming. The towering columns, the grand staircase, the glittering crowd—it all seemed like a blur as her focus remained on one person: Alexander.She had never seen him like this before. The usual cold, calculated mafia leader—capable of making even the bravest shudder with a single glance—was different tonight. There was a stillness in him, an almost tense calmness in the way he stood. His grip on her hand was firm enough to assert control, but there was something gentle in it, too, as if it was a subtle reminder that there was more to him than his ruthless reputation. As they walked through the sea of guests, Dysis couldn’t shake the feeling of the

The weight of the evening pressed down on Dysis, suffocating her in its golden glow. The ballroom, once a dazzling spectacle of elegance and grandeur, now felt more like a cage—a place where secrets lurked beneath polite smiles and half-spoken words. Lucian’s unexpected appearance had only deepened the unease curling in her stomach. The charged silence between him and Alexander, the way their gazes locked as if exchanging something unspoken—it all unsettled her. Dysis gulped nervously, her hold on her dress tightening as she glanced between the two men. “I don’t get it ,” she whispered, her voice scarcely audible. “Why wouldn’t Alexander be here?” Neither answered immediately. Instead, Lucian’s green eyes flickered with something indecipherable before shifting to Alexander, who remained deathly still at her side. His fingers, still wrapped around her wrist, flexed slightly as if holding himself back. Lucian finally exhaled, his jaw tightening. “Because he never comes to these

The air in the ballroom crackled with an intensity that seemed to radiate from Alexander himself. His cold demeanor only grew sharper when Joe tried to approach him once again. Every attempt was met with a curt dismissal, Alexander's eyes distant, a silent barrier between them. The bond they once shared felt frayed, unraveling beyond repair, and Joe couldn't understand why his brother would push him away.Brayden, ever the innocent observer, hugged his uncle with unrestrained affection, his small arms wrapped tightly around Alexander's waist. But Alexander’s response was swift and brutal—he shoved Brayden aside, his fingers tightening on Dysis’s hand as he pulled her away. Brayden stood frozen, confusion and sadness clouding his young face.“I think I like her even more,” Brayden remarked softly to Joe, though there was no joy in his eyes—only an unsettling sense of loss.Joe’s lips twitched into a half-smile, but it faltered almost immediately. “You like everything Alexander likes,”

Sofie’s eyes darkened, her perfectly painted lips pressing into a thin line. She tilted her head slightly, her voice dripping with mock amusement. “How fascinating,” she murmured, her tone deceptively soft. “I see you’ve made yourself quite at home in the world of luxury.” Dysis refused to flinch, meeting Sofie’s piercing gaze with quiet defiance. Her own eyes drifted downward, taking in Sofie’s designer heels—the very ones Dysis had once dreamed of being the first to wear. They weren’t just shoes. They were a symbol of power, prestige, a legacy that should have belonged to her. But there they were, now adorning Dysis’s feet instead. Sofie’s fingers curled around the stem of a wine glass as she took a slow sip, her eyes never leaving Dysis. It wasn’t just the shoes. The brand, the collection—everything she had envisioned should have been hers. And yet, Alexander had given it all away. To her. So that’s why Alexander was avoiding me, Sofie thought bitterly. He had been the one

The melodies danced in the atmosphere, while the graceful murmur of dialogue and joy intertwined with the rhythm. Visitors spun and glided around the dance floor, their motions smooth and untroubled, their giggles joyful. Dysis, on the other hand, stayed planted in place, her eyes sweeping the room, yet her body stayed motionless, as if she were out of place. She scanned the crowd until her gaze landed on Alexander, who was casually leaning against a pillar at the edge. His stance was easygoing, yet a chill in his gaze appeared to dismiss the celebratory spirit surrounding him. He stood as a glacier in the heat of the celebration. He wasn't even paying attention to the dancers. Instead, he scanned the room with a sense of apathy, his icy-blue eyes capturing the attention of several women who, evidently fascinated, flitted nearby, attempting to attract his focus. “Don't even consider it,” Alexander's voice cut into her thoughts, surprising her with its icy smoothness. Dysis blinked,

Sofie’s scream shattered the moment, her voice high-pitched and full of venom. “She pushed me! Did you see that? She shoved me right into the fountain!” The room fell into stunned silence, the atmosphere that had once been filled with laughter and music now thick with tension. Guests turned slowly, murmurs spreading like wildfire, eyes flicking back and forth between Sofie and Dysis. The cheerful atmosphere had dissipated, giving way to a sense of discomfort that tingled against the skin. Dysis remained motionless, her heart racing in her chest as the words lingered in the air like a snare. Her eyes fixed on Sofie's, yet it felt as though the accusation struck her like a tangible hit. She hadn’t touched Sofie—hadn’t even been close to her—but the falsehood felt like a razor, sharp and dangerous, capable of cutting through everything Dysis had worked so hard to build. Her throat constricted, the weight of the lie suffocating her. "I didn’t even touch you," Dysis finally said, her

Claimed By The Mafia Billionaire Chapter 94: The Northern Silence
Adam Levi's office door creased as it swung open. The room was dark, only the orange glow of one desk lamp lighting it. From a half-burned cigar in a crystal ashtray, smoke coiled sloppily. Towering and loaded with ancient leather-bound volumes that smelt of dust, conflict, and tradition, bookshelves ran down the walls The air smelt strongly of cedarwood and ash, swallowing the faint winter trace coming from the window crevices. Silent Alexander entered, his bare feet soft against the smooth hardwood floor. He wore a big jumper that hung off one shoulder with sleeves engulfing his hands. He felt a breeze from the slightly ajar window, but he did not react. His experience with cold was one of adaptation. Adam turned his back on him. He stood behind his desk, wide back stiff under a dark suit. Under low light, the grey in his hair stood more clearly. With one hand he clutched a glass of bourbon, the ice clicking softly as he spun it. His other hand rested on a hefty, sealed, crimso
Claimed By The Mafia Billionaire Chapter 93: The Hollow Throne
One Year Later The Levi estate stood silent, wrapped in fog and frost. The mansion, once alive with Rosie’s laughter and sunlight spilling through open windows, had grown cold—like something sacred had been buried inside its walls. A clock ticked softly somewhere in the distance. The fire in the parlor crackled, but it gave no warmth. Adam sat at the edge of his office desk. His hands were stained with oil and blood—both recent. Though the air was cold, his black shirt fit his back and hung with sweat. His tie disappeared from view on the floor next to a broken whisky tumbler. A long gash stretched across the side of his palm, still bleeding. He hadn’t spoken in hours. Not a word. The leather chair behind his desk remained untouched, like a throne he no longer deserved. He no longer ruled with strategy or calculation. He ruled with silence. With steel. With the kind of violence that didn’t end when justice was served—but hunted until it bled out everything. Every na

Six Years Later Alexander's sixth birthday started with laughter early in the morning. Like birdsong during a protracted storm, high-pitched and brilliant it rang through the Levi mansion's hallways. With his silk pyjama pants hanging around his legs and hair tangled and sticking out in a hundred ways, the lad went barefoot down the great staircase. His laughter echoed off gilded mirrors and marble columns, a sound so innocent it felt like a revolt in a house constructed on steel and shadows. “Alexander!” Rosie’s voice trailed behind him, laughing too. “Shoes! What did I say about running like a little wolf?” He darted behind the banister."Wolves do not wear shoes!" She grabbed him at the stair foot and gently raised him in her arms, kissing his warm, drowsy cheek. Like childhood, like everything good she had ever dared to wish for, he smelt of honeyed milk and sunshine. She said, "You're six now," softly moving his dark hair off his forehead. “That’s ancient.” “Ancient?” he

Outside the mansion, the night air smelt jasmine buds, and through the windows one could hear the soft rustle of trees. As a fire blazed in the fireplace, the luxurious sitting area glowed in warm, golden tones. The Levi family estate saw many important occasions with its lofty columns and extravagant furniture. None would be as significant, though, as the one in the way right now.Rosie sat by the large bay window in low light, her hands softly brushing a newborn draped in exquisite, pastel blue blankets. Her face exuded an unmistakable brightness, yet it was little worn with the minor exhaustion of delivery. Looking down at the small face peeping out from the swaddling, her heart grew with a love only a mother could experience. At last here was her long-awaited son, Alexander.Adam stood in the corner of the room, his massive form silhouetted against the flickering fire. Though he weighed his eyes, a calm delight that ran deeper than anything he had ever experienced, his face exuded
Claimed By The Mafia Billionaire Chapters 90: A New Beginning
Four years had spun their complex designs into the fabric of the Levi mansion. The enormous home was evidence of the passage of time with its soaring columns and vast gardens. Still, inside its boundaries, the dynamics had changed in minute, almost invisible terms. Adam Levi stayed a tower of strength and loyalty; his love for Rosie just got stronger every day. His love had not only survived but grown, like roots digging ever more into the ground. Now his eyes were softer, full of unspoken love, every touch a statement of his relentless dedication. Ever the picture of elegance, Rosie had found comfort in the daily grind. She cared for the flowers Adam had given her in the mornings, feeling the chilly ground between her hands. Afternoons were for melodies on the grand piano resonating through the hallways, the soothing tones warming the cold marble flooring. Still, something inside her stirred—a restlessness she could not quite identify—even as she had built a world of beauty all ab

Eventually, he relented.Adam Levi, once so firm in his resolve, stood before a mirror in a black suit that fit him too well. It wasn’t new. He hadn’t bothered with a custom tailoring for the occasion. What did it matter? Nothing about this day belonged to him—not really.Downstairs, the mansion pulsed with the sound of soft piano music, played by a hired musician Lili insisted on. She had a taste—refined, elegant, precise. She had orchestrated every detail of the wedding with the efficiency of someone born into this world, raised to carry it on her back.She entered the Levi family like water filling a glass—graceful, quiet, but impossible to ignore.She wore ivory, with glittering silver thread woven across it. Maybe it hung on her frame like the cloth had been spun particularly for her. Her golden hair put into a chignon exposed the sharp contours of her cheekbones, and she glided down the aisle with an elegance almost surreal. Blue eyes gleamed under the light of the chandelier—no
Claimed By The Mafia Billionaire Chapter 88: The Weight of Legacy
Months passed in silence between Adam and Rosie, like an old scar not healing. Adam had believed that time would help things to settle down, that the anguish of their hidden reality would lessen into something more doable. But it failed. It was never accomplished.Rather, the days merged into one another, mornings colder than yesterday. With her light and deliberate movements always just out of reach, Rosie walked across their mansion like a ghost. For his part, Adam submerged himself in the limitless obligations of the Levi empire. His father's loud and strong voice echoed in his memory every day, reminding him of what he had to do and what he needed to achieve. Still, there was something in the silence, the times Rosie was near when their eyes crossed a room and they didn't say but yet recognised each other, that felt like the beginning of something else. Not precisely, it was not love. not yet. But there was something more profound, something that descended below simple affection.
Claimed By The Mafia Billionaire Chapter 87: The Silence of Time
The cake shop felt like a universe unto itself, a little, modest haven amid a busy city. Outside, unaware of the little time Adam and Rosie had just experienced, the planet sped ahead. Inside, the air scented like vanilla and buttercream—the kind of scent that would have let even the hardest man forget the coldness of the life he led.Adam requested a slice of cake. He was unable to quite articulate why. Perhaps it was the way Rosie had eaten the sweets with such wild abandon, as though she had no regard for the guidelines of the society in which she lived. Perhaps it was because he experienced something not quite the keen edge of control for the first time in a very long period. Though it felt more than that, the cake was a rich, luscious treat, a transient pleasure. It felt like the start of something he was not yet able to name.Rosie didn't flinch as he sat beside her; his posture is always exact and tight. Though his presence still carried power, there was something different abo

Reviewing the files before Adam, he sat behind his polished mahogany desk, his fingers tapping steadily against the wood. High above the city, his office was a fortress of icy efficiency, every piece of furniture positioned with exacting accuracy. But even with all the grandeur around him, a great sense of unhappiness ate at his core. His life—the history, the expectations, the cold, deliberate actions that had gotten him to this point—pressed down on him ruthlessly. It all felt caught, suffocating him. And today, the approaching wedding plans of his father just served to intensify that pressure.Rosie. His mind kept returning the name, as it had for the last few days. With a force Adam could hardly ignore, her blazing red hair, calm, unwavering eyes, and rebellious attitude against everything he had made crashed into his meticulously created universe. She was his wife, a little pawn in the game of family politics, but she refused to follow the rules of his dominion. And in some weir
