Forced to Wed the Mafia Heir Chapter 10
OVERPROTECTIVE Ava's eyes widened in understanding, then narrowed dangerously. "Tell me that slimeball didn't--""Can we not?" Kylie pleaded. "I really, really don't want to think about it right now. How about we watch a movie or something? I could use the distraction."Ava looked like she wanted to argue, but finally nodded. "Fine. But this conversation isn't over."As Ava flipped through the TV channels, Kylie found her gaze drawn to Dante. His stillness was unnerving, like a statue come to life."Um, Dante?" she ventured. "You don't have to stand there all night. It's kind of freaking me out. Would you mind... sitting down?"Dante considered her for a moment, then moved to the vacant armchair. He shrugged off his jacket, revealing a crisp white shirt and a holster containing what looked like two guns and a knife.Kylie's mind raced. Would he be there all the time? Even when she needed privacy? The thought made her skin crawl.She was jolted from her spiraling thoughts by Rosy's vo

A NIGHT OF TENSIONThe living room was bathed in a soft, amber glow from the antique lamps, casting long shadows that seemed to dance across the faces of the four individuals gathered there. Kylie perched on the edge of the plush sofa, her fingers absently tracing the intricate patterns on a throw pillow. Next to her, Ava lounged with the easy confidence of a cat, her eyes sharp and assessing as they flicked between the room's occupants.Rosy, all gangly limbs and boundless energy, hovered near an oversized armchair where Dante sat. The young man's posture was ramrod straight, his eyes constantly scanning the room with the practiced efficiency of a seasoned bodyguard."Whoa," Rosy breathed, her eyes wide as she took in Dante's imposing presence. She inched closer, drawn like a moth to a flame.Kylie watched her sister's approach with growing unease. "Rosy," she warned, but her voice was drowned out by the sound of Rosy's girlish giggle.In a move that seemed to defy the laws of physic

LOVE TRIANGLE Ava stuck out her tongue, the gesture oddly childish coming from someone who usually exuded such sophistication. "You're no fun, A. I'm just trying to liven things up a bit. Speaking of which..." She turned back to Dante, her expression suddenly serious. "Where are Lysander and the boys headed for his big bachelor bash?"Dante's face became a mask of neutrality. "That's not information I'm privy to.""Bullshit," Ava scoffed. "You know exactly where they're going. Probably some sleazy strip club, right? Or maybe one of those high-end brothels the Family's always bragging about."Kylie felt a knot forming in her stomach. She didn't want to think about Lysander and what he might be doing tonight. Or any night, for that matter.Ava, oblivious to Kylie's discomfort, plowed on. "It's such bullshit, you know? The guys get to screw around all they want, but we're supposed to be these perfect little virgins. Like, why is it okay for Lysander to fuck half the city, but Kylie can'

BRIDAL SHOWERThe living room of the Palazzo Reale's top suite sparkles in front of me, a pastel dream designed for a celebration I never asked for. Soft pink and ivory roses overflow from crystal vases, their lovely fragrance blending with the crisp scent of chilled champagne. Delicate ribbons hang from the ceiling, catching the warm light from carefully placed lamps. A table is weighed down with fancy pastries and shiny flutes of bubbly. It’s stunning, almost painfully so, and I can’t help but feel like an outsider in this feminine wonderland.I smooth the emerald silk of my cocktail dress, the fabric gliding over my skin. It feels cool and slick, a sharp contrast to the rising heat of anxiety inside me. My mother’s voice echoes in my mind: "It would be rude to Lysander’s family if they didn’t get to meet you before the wedding." As if this act of regularity could hide the truth of what’s really going on.My fingers glide over the curves of the dress, pausing at the bodice. Emerald

HIDDEN PLANI nod, getting the hidden message in her words. We both know that "protection" in our world really means control, dressed up as family care."I'm sorry," I say quietly, fully aware that my words fall short.Sandra shrugs again, a touch of resignation in her tone. "It is what it is. You know that as well as I do."I let out a bitter laugh, the sound echoing hollowly in the fancy room. "Yeah," I reply, because what else can I say? We're both stuck in the same golden cage."Well... we could come up with a plan, you know, to free ourselves from this. Honestly, I don't want to get married yet, and you're far too young to marry someone so ruthless." Sandra said She glanced around nervously before whispering, "I feel the same way... but we have to be careful. We can't just run away without thinking it through."I want to escape this too, but I can't help but worry about the consequences. If we're not careful, we might end up in even more danger. We need a plan that's both clever

BEAUTIFUL CAGEI gazed through the tinted glass, the cityscape becoming a mere streak as we raced along the highway. A line of polished black vehicles led the way, a stark reminder that my autonomy had slipped away. This wasn’t just another day—it was the day. The day I would become Lysander Vincenzo’s wife, the man whose name was spoken in hushed tones but who now occupied the very core of my existence.I shifted uncomfortably in my seat, attempting to alleviate the pressure building in my chest. Yet, nothing seemed to ease the weight."Are you alright?" Ava's voice broke through my spiraling thoughts, laced with an unmistakable tension.I nodded, though I couldn’t tell if I was reassuring her or myself."Yeah, just... feeling a bit anxious."Ava shot me a look that clearly conveyed, the understatement of the year, but she remained silent. We both understood that there was no turning back now.As we arrived at the Vincenzo estate, I was struck by the sheer extravagance that enveloped

ENTRAPMENTI gazed at my reflection, feeling like a stranger draped in white satin. The gown, adorned with a chapel train and intricate platinum embroidery, sparkled under the sunlight, casting a mesmerizing glow. My fingers glided over the satin ribbon that hugged my waist. I should have felt like a bride, yet all I could perceive was a sense of entrapment."The dress is absolutely stunning, Kylie," my mother had exclaimed earlier, but I found myself unable to muster any enthusiasm.The door creaked open, and Aunt Megan’s overly cheerful voice shattered the silence.“That sweetheart neckline is simply... exquisite!” She smiled brightly, exchanging glances with Aunt Christy, who nodded in agreement, her voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper.“Lysander will be smitten. I promise you.”At the mention of his name, I flinched, a reflex I couldn’t control. My mother caught it, her smile faltering as she hurried the aunts out of the room. _Thank goodness._ I was not ready to face their

FAILED PLANI stood before the mirror, the wedding gown enveloping me like a second skin. It was a true work of art, the chapel train cascading behind me, and the platinum embroidery shimmering in the light. It should have felt like a fairy tale, yet it only felt like a cage.A knock on the door jolted me from my reverie. I straightened my posture, forcing a neutral expression as Mother, Sandra, and Rahila entered the room.“Wow, Rosy, you look absolutely breathtaking,” Sandra exclaimed, her voice filled with sincere admiration. “Your hair is like spun gold.”Sandra’s mint bridesmaid dress was lovely, and Rahila, in her maroon gown, appeared to be wilting in the summer heat. Mother ushered Rosy in, saying, “Come on, Rosy. Your cousins want to speak with Rosy.”“Ava?” Mother inquired, glancing at my sister.Ava, seated on the sofa, shot Mother a defiant look. “I’m not going anywhere. I won’t leave Rosy alone.”Mother sighed and closed the door behind her.Sandra cleared her throat, loo

ROSY'S SECRETThe safe house was buzzing with activity as Lysander’s team regrouped and strategized their next move.

Kylie couldn’t shake the feeling that there was more to Rosy's kidnapping than met the eye. Something about the whole situation felt off.As Rosy recovered, Kylie spent more time with her, trying to piece together what had happened. She noticed that Rosy seemed unusually quiet and distant, often lost in thought. It wasn’t just the trauma of the kidnapping, something else was troubling her.One afternoon, as they sat together in the infirmary, Kylie decided to confront her friend. “Rosy, is there something you’re not telling us? I can see that you’re scared, but we need to know everything if we’re going to stop The Viper.”Rosy looked up, her eyes filled with tears. She hesitated for a moment, then took a deep breath. “Kylie, there’s something I need to tell you.

The image was grainy, but the message was clear. The Viper, his face still obscured by shadows, addressed them directly.“Lysander, Kylie,” The Viper’s voice was cold and menacing. “You’ve c

A NEW ENEMY EMERGESThe victory at the Syndicate’s factory had bolstered the morale at the safe house. Lysander's men were more determined than ever, and Kylie felt a new sense of purpose. However, the sense of accomplishment was short-lived. A storm was brewing, and they could all feel it in the air.As the team strengthened their defenses and strategized their next moves, a new threat loomed on the horizon. Unknown to Lysander and his allies, a powerful figure from the Syndicate's upper echelon had taken a keen interest in their activities. This new enemy, known only as The Viper, was ruthless and had a reputation for leaving no loose ends.Lysander sat in his office, pouring over maps and intelligence reports. Kylie entered quietly, her presence a welcome distraction. “You look worried,” she said softly, taking a seat across from him.He sighed, rubbing his temples. “We’ve crippled the Syndicate’s operations, but I can’t shake the feeling that something bigger is coming.

Lysander and his men tightened their security, making sure that there would be no more leaks. Ava was recovering well, her strength returning with each passing day.

LYSANDER'S CONFESSION The rescue operation had been successful, but the aftermath left the entire safe house on edge. Ava was safe, but bruised and shaken. Lysander’s anger was palpable as he paced the corridors, his mind racing with thoughts of betrayal and strategy. The Syndicate had played their hand well, and the fact that they knew about Ava’s location indicated that there was a mole within their ranks. Kylie sat beside Ava’s bed, holding her hand. Ava’s eyes fluttered open, and she managed a weak smile. “Thank you for saving me.” Kylie squeezed her hand gently. “You don’t need to thank me. We’re family. We’ll always protect you.” Ava nodded, her eyes filling with tears. “I was so scared, Kylie. I didn’t think I’d make it out.” Kylie stroked her hair gently. “You’re safe now. Rest and get your strength back. We’ll find out who did this.” Lysander called a meeting with his top men, their faces grim and determined. Kim had already started investigating, but they needed t

Lysander's men were busy reinforcing their defenses, reviewing the intelligence they had gathered, and planning their next moves. Kylie and Lysander spent some rare quiet moments together, savoring the feeling of victory while knowing it would be short-lived.However, the fragile peace was shattered when Lysander received a frantic call from Maria, the loyal maid who had been watching over Ava. The color drained from his face as he listened, and Kylie knew immediately that something was terribly wrong."Ava's missing," Lysander said, his voice tight with barely controlled anger. "Maria went to check on her this morning and found her room empty."Kylie's heart skipped a beat. "How could this happen? We had people watching her around the clock."Lysander ran a hand through his hair, his eyes blazing with fury and worry. "Someon

Lysander and his men worked tirelessly to fortify their defenses and gather more intelligence. They knew the Syndicate wouldn’t stay down for long, and they had to be prepared for the inevitable retaliation.Kylie threw herself into her training, determined to be ready for whatever came next.

It’s important.”Kylie wiped the sweat from her brow and nodded. “I’ll be right there.”She made her way to Lysander’s office, her mind racing with possibilities.

The Syndicate was relentless, and this victory would only make them more determined.As the men regrouped and tended to their injuries, Lysander called a meeting. They needed to plan their next move. The Syndicate wouldn’t wait long before striking again, and they needed to stay one step ahead.“We need to hit them where it hurts,” Lysander said, his voice firm. “We can’t keep playing defense. It’s time to take the fight to them.”Kim nodded in agreement. “We’ve gathered enough intelligence to know their weak points. A coordinated attack on their key locations could cripple their operations.”Dorian leaned forward, his eyes gleaming with anticipation. “I’m ready.

KYLIE'S HIDDEN STRENGTHKylie woke to the first rays of dawn filtering through the curtains. She stretched, feeling the familiar ache in her muscles, a reminder of the battles they had faced. Lysander was already up, his side of the bed cold. She knew he was planning their next move, always thinking ahead.Determined to be more than just a passive presence, Kylie decided to train. She needed to be strong, not just for herself, but for Lysander and their family. She had seen too much, endured too much, to sit idly by.After dressing quickly, she made her way to the training room where she found Kim running drills with a few of the men. He looked up, surprised but pleased to see her.“Kylie,” he greeted, wiping sweat from his brow. “What brings you here?”She squared her shoulders, her eyes determined. “I want to train, Kim. I need to be able to protect myself and the people I love.”Kim nodded, respecting her resolve. “Alright. We’ll start with the basics and work our way up. You’ve be
