Entangled With The Mafia Boss Hidden intentions
Alex POV,It was obvious that the tension of Lucita's sudden appearance still hung in the air, neither Jericho nor I said a word when he walked in. Just brief glances and that was all.However, I listened keenly as he instructed the guys over the phone to bring Lucita down to one of the cabins. I had followed him when he walked out of the office. I did it on impulse, more like I trailed after him. Granted, I knew Jericho wasn’t going to do anything silly with that girl, perhaps it was only vital that they really meet up and talk things through but my gut feeling strongly believed that the meeting might turn out to be disastrous—to Jericho marriage’s with Leia that is. Even as an innocent girl back then, Lucita had always had this enchanting spell on Jericho and he’d never resisted. Now that she's back with a venomous demeanor and unclear motives, she’d definitely make advances that could sway Jericho.Afterall it’s obvious she didn’t come for Good, I can just feel it in my gut. I

LeiaI remained in Jericho's arms and watched all of his expression as he told the story behind Lucita's disappearance and why they all thought she was dead.The story was plausible but that wasn't my concern. It was obvious that Jericho still loved this strange woman. The way he told the story was a proof in itself. Although we just started our lovey dovey, he is my husband and I know one or two things about him.I trembled as I watched him speak. The reality and the truth about his impotence hit me hard. When he mentioned it the night he made his confession, I did not believe him. I thought it was a lie but the truth hit me hard when I heard it from Nonnina.The girl whose disappearance made my husband partially impotent his back. With what intentions? Do I stand the chance of winning against her? I asked myself and my fears weakened me. I felt tired, both physically and emotionally. My eyes fluttered and I slept off.When I woke up, Jericho was gone. I checked all the rooms and c

Jericho’s POVLeia didn’t need to act infuriated for me to see how wrong the picture was. She kept her gaze on the road through her side of the window, not sparing me a glance, and the silence killed me. When I couldn’t hold it in anymore, I had to ask. “Are you okay?” I inquired and what I got was a shrug. “Just tired after I had to look everywhere for you.”“Oh sorry about that__ I just__”“You haven’t been seeing your ex, have you, Jericho?” She attacked me before I had a chance to finish talking, as she tore her eyes off the road and that landed firmly on me. For a second, words evaded my lips, but after some time, I found them. “Of course not” I forced a stifled smile and watched as she nodded slowly. The rest of the drive was quiet. None of us said a word until I dropped leia off at our apartment. After dropping her off, I took on the tradition of ordering our food over. We had avoided the family dinner since her pregnancy made her nauseous. I already had the phone in my ha

LeiaThe weight of nonnina’s words may not be that heavy but it dealt so hard with me. Each word she spoke about my pregnancy not being for Jericho, drove a knife into my chest and it kept twisting as she spoke on. It took restraining will-power not to break down in front of everyone. Actually the taunting smirk that plastered on that bitch’s face called lucita spurred a little strength in me. As long as she’ll pose as a competitor for me, I wouldn’t give her the satisfaction of seeing her triumph over me and that was what made me muster the strength to speak up for myself meanwhile I was breaking inside. I didn’t even know what was crushing me more? The fact that Nonnina had dealt me the shocker of my life by insinuating that I’d been cheating on Jericho or the fact that I hated the pity looks on Lin’s face or the fact that Jericho didn’t even attempt to defend me? Of course, the latter was what hurt the most.As soon as we arrived outside the building, I found myself yanking

Jericho’s POVWe ended up shopping for nothing. I did not think straight when I decided to go shopping for baby things. I just wanted to surprise Leia, I had totally forgotten about the baby's sex.I thought they used to discern early at the hospital but Leia said it was way too early. She is just one month gone. I chuckled sheepishly as the car came to a screeching halt. Since we did not do the necessary shopping, I had only a few bags of toys to carry. I had given out most of the free toys. I fixed the shopping bags in my hands and held them firmly leaving Leia with nothing to carry. Although she wanted to help, I was particular about her hurting her back. Carrying groceries was very far from something that could hurt her back and if she told me that now, that would be the umpteenth time she would be telling me something like that. I dropped everything on the sofa, kissed her on the cheeks and made my way back to the door. “You are leaving already?” I heard her ask when I had alr

Rya,s POV, DallasIt was about 11 pm. The night was great and a cool breeze blew in through the open window. I had been staying in Leia's room since she was sent away. One of the windows has a clear view of the mansion, most especially, the main gate. I sat by the window lazily with my headset on and I shook my head to the flow of one of my favourite jazz. Suddenly, the main gate caved in and a black SUV broke in. The gatekeeper and the guards flew out of the way but they recovered swiftly and opened fire against the car.Three more cars broke in right behind the first. All the cars were bullet proof and the bullets shot by our men slid down the bodies of the cars.I threw my headset aside and picked up my gun. I removed the silencer and fired sporadically. The guns fired by our men had silencers, I had to alert others.I scurried out of the room and met Leia's mother in the corridor. She was in panic at the sound of the gunshots."We have Intruders do not step out," I ordered and

Alex’s POV, -Dallas-“You didn’t even ask about the bidding at the casino and the shipments too.” I said to Jericho as I walked the long distance to the garage where we’d had guards waiting for us with the cars in Dallas.Honestly, I did not believe Jericho would ditch the arrangements we had for anything. We had agreed that while I oversee the dissemination of the consignment, he will fix the paperworks and reports from our different units back in Italy. We had the intention to head down to Dallas in time. We were supposed to meet a new client but Jericho screwed things up. He didn’t pick my calls and when he finally did, he asked me to take care of everything on my own like who the hell does that? “I know the highest bidder claimed it and you wouldn’t be so daft to give it out at a cheap rate. Also I know the shipment delivery went smoothly and the paperwork? You’ve always been good with it. So, I am rest assured and I’m proud of you!” He gave me a bro punch on my shoulder and I

ItalyLeiaMy eyes flicked open and I took in my surroundings. It wasn't long before I realized that I was on a hospital bed. My eyes crisped up in a frown as I tried to remember how I got in here.The last thing I remembered was that I had a clash with Lucita and I tried to return to my room... I tripped and …. it all went dark.I heaved a sigh as I remembered all that Lucita said. I knew she was just bluffing but she was right and wrong as well.Yeah, she was right, I was indeed sold for alliance but I and Jericho love each other now. To me, my husband is a stud and not impotent. I am not sex starved and I got pregnant by my husband.Despite knowing these, Lucita's words sunk deep into my heart, it cut like a knife. The fact that she knew about my pathetic start made me more pathetic but something seemed to be unclear to me. The bitch claimed to be around on my wedding day. That simple piece of information did not go down well with me. I know it when I see a carefully planned rebel

Entangled With The Mafia Boss Leia's Abduction II
Jericho POV, Few minutes has passed since Leia and her nurse maid left for the rest room. I have been technically bouncing on my toes, never had I been this impatient and aggravated all my life. Time was tucking away, yet there was no trace of Leia. My head had literally turned into a standing fan, spinning back and forth for a sign of her but there was no trace. Fed up of the shit, I decided to make a move but just as I made two steps away from my standing position, I felt a hand grab my arm making me twirl back to see it was Alex. My eyes instantly turned to inferno. “What?!” I gritted my teeth, my whole being burning with rage. Alex squirmed his face before sighing and said; “Tell me you aren’t fucking going to meet Leia in the restroom. You’ve to calm down! Give them some privacy, man! It's the ladies not your personal closet.Calm down? Really? Is that a joke or sort?How can I? when I am literally angry with entirely everything right now. Starting with Alfonso; the nerve of
Entangled With The Mafia Boss Leia's Abduction

After the search on Tyler's car's number led us no where, we are yet to have a concrete information.We have been checking the footage of cameras just like he had ordered but we are yet to get anything concrete.While I was at it, a summon propped up from Alfonso. It was meant for Jericho, he was summoned to come alongside Leia. Yeah, that is big boss for you, he takes the bull by the horn. I informed Jericho and soon he was down in Alfonso's chambers with his wife. I was also present."Given the fact that you were just informed about Russo's death, I had thought I will receive your visitation but it never come," Alfonso said to Leia as soon as we walked in.Leia said nothing. She bowed in greetings without responding."What can you say about your friend. I mean Tyler," Alfonso went straight to the point and showed Leia a seat.Leia looked surprised and looked questioningly at Jericho."Did you report me to …
Entangled With The Mafia Boss Lucita's intentions
Lucita POVI am obsessed about Jericho and knew it. Well you wouldn't blame me, he was my first love and my betrothed. When I walked through the shadows of death, he was the only substance that kept me fighting for my life. I am back on my feet and there is no way I can live on without him.Since l'd left the Bandas' mansion, I could not but think about him. Apparently, I might have lost him but I can't lose him for real. We can't remain under the same sky and he would be locked up in another woman's bosom.No! It can never be. The thought alone is infuriating. I will rather have him taken out. Yes, if I can't have him, no one would. Neither Leia nor some other women.At this point I could not help but think that Andro's intervention made me lose Jericho. If I had returned to him earlier, he wouldn't have met that bitch. And when I returned, Jericho couldn't feel my sincerity. I had grown past the naive and gentle lady he knew.Well, I won't cry over spoilt milk. I have lost Jericho
Entangled With The Mafia Boss A Failed Mission
Alex POVTwo cars rode out of the property right after Leia's car. We followed in close proximity but Leia did not suspect a thing.

Entangled With The Mafia Boss Assignments
Alex POVWork was choking me up but I had to do it all alone. Jericho was busy with Leia and the task was not something I could give out to our subordinates.It was the end of the month and I had enough on my plate. Reports had rolled in from every one of our facilities around the world. I had to audit the whole thing and ascertain that each facility is doing well. This task is usually handled by Jericho or me.Jericho has been hanging around Leia since things started to fall apart between them, leaving me to face the heavy workloads.I knew this was going to happen when he kept such big intimation from Leia. Yeah, he did it with a good intention. He did it to protect her but hey, he should have known that Leia isn't a weakling, she won't welcome such an excuse.Thinking about it all aroused my curiosity. I am more curious about the source of the whole malady. Isn't it strange that a man from nowhere was the one who broke the news to Leia? A fucking childhood friend or whatever. I s

This time around I was navigating ways on how to deal with them ruthlessly as soon as I got my hands on them. Fucking hell, I can’t beleive that the investigation on just one woman...One damn woman is suddenly becoming like a wild goose chase.

He bowed and in a few minutes time, he led Luca up all the way. “If you don’t h

Back up team and search team spurred into action immediately.They located the point where they had the last contact with them.
