I felt it—the storm that had yet to pass.Damian stood beside me, his gun still raised, his muscles taut as he listened. Footsteps echoed outside the warehouse in the distance. We weren't alone.I turned to Damian, my voice barely above a whisper. "They're coming, aren't they?"His jaw was clenched, his eyes black with something unreadable. "Ricci had expected this," he said. "He knew Bianca might fail. He had men hidden."A chill ran down my spine. "So what do we do?"Damian pulled me against him, his voice low and authoritative. "We fight our way out."My heart pounded. I had never fought before—not like this. But there was no time to be scared. We had to leave.The TrapThe instant we stepped into the corridor, we heard it. A car engine revved outside.

Chapter 101: The CalmLena's POVThe warehouse was quiet now. Too quiet.The shooting had stopped. The screams had died down. The only thing left was the scent of blood and gunpowder in the air. My whole body ached, but I wasn't certain if it was due to my wounds or due to the weight of what had just transpired.Ricci was dead. Bianca was dead.It was done.Yet as I stood there, gazing out at the corpses on the ground, a deep, unsettling feeling crawled up my spine. Was it truly over? Or had we just started a war we were not ready for?Damian shifted with me, his own weapon still clutched in his fist. His breath came in strained, controlled gasps, but I could feel the rigidity in his posture. His jaw was clenched, his eyes narrowed and calculating. His mind was already on the next move."Lena." His tone was rough, little more than a command. "We need to move. Now."I swallowed and nodded. I lacked the energy to object. The adrenaline was beginning to wear off, and my body was

Chapter One Hundred and Six: The Enemy Show Their FacesLena's POVThe air in the room was charged. I sat on the couch, gripping the fabric of my dress in my hands, trying to take a deep breath. Damian hadn't said much since he'd told me that Ricci had been involved. He stood in front of the window, his silhouette against the subdued city lights, his shoulders hunched up, his jaw set.Something was wrong.I could feel it.It wasn't about Bianca anymore. Something—or someone—else was at play. Someone powerful enough to make Ricci listen. And that frightened me.Damian whirled around, his black eyes fastened on mine. "Get up. We're leaving.""What?" I frowned. "Where are we going?"He didn't answer. He grabbed his gun from the table and inspected it before holstering it. Logan walked into the room, his face serious. "We found someone. He might have answers."I stood up slowly, my heart pounding.Damian came to stand beside me, his presence smothering. "Stay at my side. Whatever you hear

Chapter One : The Price Of DesperationLena's PovThe inky night air hung thick and heavy upon me as I headed toward that dimly lit building, the crumpled address fisted in my hand. Every step felt like a jump into something far darker than I'd ever known, but this was my last hope.Damian Russo. His name could freeze blood in this city just from a mention in alleys and bars, served up with nothing more than a whispered warning. I had nothing but one hope-a desperate, foolish hope-and that was that he would help me, despite the stories, about what happened when one fell into his debt. But my mother was fading fast, her medical bills piling up, and this was the last door on which to knock.My legs trembled as I made my way down the corridor. Men of rough countenance watched from the shadows, their eyes cold and steady. One of them muttered something, and there was a ripple of laughter. I hurried my pace, hastening to drown my fear in thoughts of why I was here. But that did little good

Chapter Two : First CommandLenaThe morning was barely breaking, and the elements of light barely filtered through the sides of the thick curtains, but the house was quiet, dark, and foreboding. I had hardly slept, my mind plagued by the reality of what I'd agreed to, and the man I was indebted to.A knock came to my door, loud and heavy, impatient. Opening it with a racing heart, I found one of Damian's men waiting for me on the other side-a stone-faced giant of a man who didn't say a word. He merely cocked his head toward the hall, clearly meaning for me to follow.I followed him down the long, circling corridors, my feet growing heavier with each step. It was as if I were being taken into the mouth of something dark and monstrous. The quiet, the heavy silence, seemed to pulse around me and fill me with dread.We finally stopped in front of a broad, double-door entrance. Without making any noise, the guard opened it, gesturing for me to go inside alone. I pushed my legs forward, al

Chapter ThreeI sat in my small cold room, my fists clenched into my lap. The air felt thick and stifling, weighing upon me, as I tried to steady my breathing. I had promised myself that I was not going to cry, but here I was on the brink of it, rummaging through my mind for how I had gotten so deeply entrenched in this world. I didn't want to be here; I didn't belong here.A soft knock on the door startled me, and I hurriedly rubbed my eyes, steeled myself. The door creaked open, and a tall figure stepped inside. He was young, his face expressionless, yet his eyes held a faint glimmer of kindness I hadn't seen in anyone here. His name was Alex, one of Damian's men-or at least, that was my assumption.He cleared his throat; his eyes, upon meeting mine, were inscrutable. "He wants to see you," he said, softer than I had expected.I nodded, my stomach lurching at the idea of going into Damian's presence again. I shifted to stand, but my legs were like lead. I tried to conceal the trembl

Chapter Four"Tomorrow is the day I will be free from this place. It will be ten years that I have served him, and yet sometimes it feels I shouldn't go because of you. I just do not want to see you cry." Alex's voice was soft, full of compassion I hadn't expected from someone I barely knew. In the quiet sincerity, a voice that sounded as though it could break through the thick wall I had built. But his words cut through me in ways I wasn't prepared for.His eyes softened, and I noticed the slight tension in his jaw. I could feel the weight of the moment, and I wasn't sure how to respond. "I'm not asking you to do anything," Alex continued, almost as though reading my thoughts. "I just want you to get a chance to leave this place, a chance to breathe again without him controlling every step of the way. Tomorrow, when I am free, I will look for the money. I'll find it and you can use it to pay him off. You'll be free. You won't owe him anything. You won't have to stay here anymore."Hi

Chapter Five: Unspoken TensionsI stood quietly beside Damian, my heart pounding in my chest as I watched Alex move toward the door. With every step he took, it was like an echo through the silence separating us. I wanted to say something, anything that would make him stay, but words wouldn't come.Alex halted, his eyes catching mine behind him. Regret swirled in their depths, something deeper I couldn't quite place. I saw the twitch in his hand, as if he might reach out, as if he wanted to hold onto something before it was too late. But before I could take even one step toward him, Damian's voice cut through the air, commanding and cold."Just leave quietly, Alex.I froze; the chill of his tone seemed to settle deep into my bones. Alex hesitated, then nodded stiffly, turning away from me, his footsteps heavy with finality.I couldn't stop him. I didn't even try. Instead, I stayed rooted to the spot, my heart aching, watching him disappear through the door.For a long moment, Damian d

Dear Mafia, My Heart Belongs To You The Trap Is Set
Chapter 103 : The Trap is SetLena's POVThe cold in the air made the hair on my body stand on its end as I sat rigidly on the unyielding chair, wrists secured behind me. My arms pounded from the coarse rope chafing against my skin, yet I didn't allow myself to focus on that. I had greater concerns on my mind.Bianca had been in and out of the room for hours, taunting me, making sure I knew how much she enjoyed seeing me like this. But I was not going to give her the satisfaction of seeing me break down.I was not going to cry. I was not going to beg.Because I knew one thing with absolute certainty. Damian was coming for me.But was it a trap?I repeated all the things Bianca had told me. She wasn't keeping me here to torment me—she wanted something larger. Something to do with Ricci. And that scared the hell out of me.The door groaned open once again, and I straightened automatically, concealing any trace of vulnerability.Bianca walked in, her heels clicking against the floor, a s
Dear Mafia, My Heart Belongs To You Chapter 102
Chapter 102Lena's POVPain.That was the initial sensation that hit me when I opened my eyes. Hurting in my shoulders and wrists, my muscles stiff from having been locked up for much too long. My head was throbbing, my eyes spinning as I blinked through the dim light blazing overhead.Where am I?I tried to move, but I was held back. Rope. Taut, rough, cutting into the skin of my wrists as they were bound behind the chair. My ankles were bound too, pinning me in place to the cold, unforgiving floor beneath me.Panic seared in my chest, but I forced myself to breathe slowly, steadily. I had to stay calm. I had to think.The last thing I remember was being in my room, talking to Damian. And then. nothing.I must have been kidnapped while sleeping.I lifted my head and took a look around the room. It was small, more of a storage room. The walls were made of shattered concrete, and the air smelled of dampness and dust. There was only one door, thick and metal, with no windows.I was a ca
Dear Mafia, My Heart Belongs To You Unfold, The Betrayal
Chapter 101Chapter 101: Unfolds, The Betrayal Damian's POVI didn't waste any time. I instructed Lena to stay back, then sped off with Logan, my mind racing a mile a minute. Bianca had sided with Antonio Ricci, and now nothing was the same.Ricci was no ordinary criminal. He was a tactician, a man who existed for dominance. If Bianca had gone to him, it meant she was desperate—or she was planning something much greater than I'd imagined.We drove in silence, the weight of the moment resting heavily on us. Logan sat next to me in the front seat, his jaw set as he read over the contents of the folder he'd given me before."We have one lead," he finally broke the silence. "There's a guy named Marco. He works for Ricci, but he's been feeding information to us for months.".I clenched my fists around the steering wheel. "Does he know Bianca's going to turn him in?""He says he does."That was enough to hear.We arrived at a deserted warehouse on the outskirts of the city fifteen minutes
Dear Mafia, My Heart Belongs To You Uncovering The Truth
Chapter Hundred : Uncovering the TruthDamian's POVI sat at my desk in my office, staring at the papers scattered around. My mind was a mess of thoughts, each one more dangerous than the last. Bianca had been playing a game, one that I hadn't seen coming until it was almost too late. Now I needed to figure out her final move before she could utilize it.I tapped my fingers against the wooden desk, my patience running out. All of my leads so far had pointed to the same thing—Bianca was planning something bigger, something worse than she'd ever tried before.There was a knock at the door, and I was pulled from my thoughts."Enter," I snapped.The door opened and Logan, my most trusted right-hand man, entered. His face was tense, his jaw tight. That was never a good sign."We found something," he said, placing a folder before me.I opened it without hesitation, my eyes scanning the contents. There were photographs, timestamps, and detailed reports. Bianca had been meeting with someone—s
Dear Mafia, My Heart Belongs To You The Final
Chapter Ninety Nine: The Final GambitDamian's POVThe room was still except for the metronomic tick of the ancient clock on the wall. My shoulder ached from the gunshot wound, the ache a dull reminder Lucas had fired the shot.He had shot me.Not Bianca. Not one of her brainless mercenaries. Lucas. My own brother.Rafael sat across from me, arms crossed over his chest, annoyance etched into his posture. He had not said a word since we returned to the safe house, but now his temper was flared."We have to talk about this," he stated.I didn't say anything."You hesitated," he pressed on, his voice a little harsher this time. "You had a chance to take him down, and you didn't do it."My jaw was set hard. "He's not the enemy."Rafael laughed. "He shot you, Damian."I knew that. I felt that. But something in Lucas' eyes that moment—right as he took the shot—gave me the assurance that there was still something left of him. Something of himself that wasn't taken away entirely by Bianca's
Dear Mafia, My Heart Belongs To You The Hunt Begins
Chapter Ninety EightThe Hunt BeginsDamian's POVThe air stank of smoke and blood. The safe house was still, save the steady hum of the city beyond. I stood in the window, gripping the hem of the curtain as I leaned into the darkness. Each shadow, each waver of motion seemed a possible threat.Bianca had crossed the line this time.Lucas… I did not know if he had survived the explosion. And if he did, I was certain of one thing—he would not stop until he had my head. Bianca had done her work to him, poisoned his mind, and now he was just another enemy I had to get rid of.A forceful rap on the door broke my train of thought."It's me."I recognized the voice immediately—Rafael, my most trusted right-hand man. I opened the door wide enough to let him in before closing it behind him. He was dressed in black, his expression grim."We discovered something," he said, handing me the folder. "You're not going to like it."I opened it up, looking over the photographs inside. The first was a
