Mia.

Just say it" I defeatedly mumble feeling lost.

"I'm sorry Mia, he couldn't make it"

I don't even know when my phone dropped on the floor. Without the energy of picking it up, my legs on their own accord lead me out of the stall like a zombie.

Everything and everyone around me blurs and all I could do is cry.

The day I have been dreading came so early and found me unprepared.

God, this is so hard.

I have been walking for hours now, and I don't even feel tired. I just want to be away from the world. I hate how reality slaps so hard.

Maybe if I stay away some more, I will eventually wake up from this horrid dream.

I spot a beach and decide to take refuge in the water.

The place is calm with the tender evening sun. Families and couples are all over having fun and enjoying each other's company.

I never had that.

There is no day we went out as a family. The only thing I have been doing from the moment I could walk was throwing knives and aiming guns.

The only outings mother to

    Rico.She looks tired. The dark circles around her eyes are evidence that she never slept. The eyes that always capture my attention are dull and tired from crying. I knew he wouldn't stay for long. The man was already tired and sadly, he couldn't fight it anymore. At the club yesterday, she was in a meeting but her mind wasn't. The only thing she did was stare at me, and I wondered what was going through her head.I never knew how jealous felt until I saw her with that boy. It got me so angry that she left us inside to go talk to some guy. To make matters worse, that fucked up idiot is her age mate, and I couldn't stop thinking what if she thinks I'm too old for her. I want us to have a conversation. I know the fights don't guarantee anything unless she is willing to be mine. She was not even a contestant and that makes me worried. What does she think of me? Does she find me attractive? Fuck Rico.I thought I was not interested, but the more I look at her, the more I feel the ne

    Mia. I don't want to admit it but I think I like him. The Way he took care of me yesterday was so heartwarming, and I'm so glad I didn't have to go through the pain alone. I separate myself from his hold and spare a second to admire him. Sleeping Rico looks completely different from when he is awake. Right now he doesn't have his signature scowl. Instead, his face is calm and so cute. His lips are slightly parted as he releases soft snores. Looking at him now, I'm glad I got in that ring to claim him as mine. With a tired sigh, I kiss his cheek and drag myself out of bed. I still can't believe my dad is gone and that I have a funeral to arrange. How will I forget someone I have known all my life? I lazily take the stairs to the living room and like every other morning, the family is present but today it's quiet. The boys watch me as I descend the stairs until my bare feet touch the living room floor "Boss" Fabio acknowledges and everyone present nods at me. "Can I have a cof

    My heart feels uneasy. I feel like the world around me is about to scramble and I can't do anything to stop it.I have this fear of the unknown. The looks they gave me earlier are still imprinted in my mind. I haven't told anyone about it yet, and it's troubling me.As I watch my father's casket get lowered to the void ground, reality starts setting in that this is happening. That the man whom I love so much is no longer here. To make matters worse, the red dot hovering above my chest is like another wake-up call. It's like the universe is trying to tell me something. "Fuck! Mia move back" Rico snaps placing a hand on my shoulder and slightly pushing me from the danger, but I place mine on him to stop him. I'm only glad that he does as told because I would never imagine him disrespecting me in front of my men.I don't move or react in any way. This only means that he is present and he can end me any moment he wishes. Like right now.The many people surrounding me, the family that D

    Rico."Do something man" Alessio whispers as he stared at the sad girl wailing on her father's grave, and quickly looks away."Let her have her time first" It's sad looking at her form. "This is harder than I thought, I can't believe Seb is no more" he sighs rubbing his forehead stressfully. "Shit happens bro," I whisper squeezing his shoulders in comfort. "I'm trusting you, brother, please don't fail me. I can't look at her for another minute" If I didn't know Alessio, I would say he is about to cry."I'm taking her to the cabin for some time if that's okay with you" "I will call to know how she's doing" he quickly puts on his sunglasses and walks away. The graveyard is almost empty. Only ten of her men are here and the girl from that crappy neighborhood."Hey," I say approaching the guy Fabio. I have noticed he is closest to her than any of her workers."I'm taking her with me, you can go ahead" The man stares at me in doubt, like he is not sure about my request."I will have to

    Mia. The crazy headache makes me turn on the soft mattress I'm laying on.Why are the birds so loud today?Unwillingly, I open my eyes to find myself in an unknown environment.No one is around here, and I almost scream when I notice how stained the white sheets are. My dress, my body, and especially my fingers are covered in mad.Crap.My dad!Oh no!I close my eyes and take in deep breaths. I need to be strong, I just don't know how?My head is not even functioning right now.Standing up on wobbly feet, I cautiously walk out of the room without forgetting my gun.I don't know whose house I slept in, and I just can't assume shit.I can tell this place is located in the suburbs due to the many trees surrounding the house. I hear murmurs in the next room and I quickly lift my gun, and slowly push open the door.Fuck! My men."Boss!" Both men instantly look up with cautious eyes. I must look like shit."Where is this place?" I mumble, dropping my gun."Rico brought you here," Dante says

    Mia. This is so hard to believe but what choice do I have? Truth hurts. Their laughs, their smiles, were all fake. How could I read beyond them when they appeared so real? This is making me feel so hopeless. I will have to be cautious of my own shadow from now on. This shit killed my parents, and I'm too young to die just because of money that I don't need. My dad is not here, and so is your mum. They went bare hands no matter how hard they fought for riches. I will retaliate though, but not tonight. I will let them feel like they won. Then I will take a break and when they are relaxed, I will hit back so hard that they will regret targeting my family. I managed to move everything I needed to the new environment where I will take my loyal men. It's the same place that Alessio is holding my birthday party. He doesn't know about what is happening tonight and neither is Rico nor any of my men. Dad warned me to keep this information to myself, not even Fabio should know. Only th

    Rico "Have you seen Mia?" I question her friend and she worriedly shakes her head indicating no. "I can't find her anywhere, she said she was going to change but she just disappeared" The girl stressfully whispers looking around us."Fuck, I will call her," I say pulling out my phone. Where did she go? I need to see her."No need Rico, I have her phone" Bella raises the said phone and I sigh putting mine away. "Can you please check her at the graveyard? She always goes there when she is stressed" I nod in thanks and quickly get on my bike. She doesn't deserve what that fucker did. I can't believe she didn't tell us about Ryan all along. I knew that old man can't be trusted. That must be the reason he was scowling at me during the fight. He was worried that I would be a distraction to his plans. Today is her birthday and this fuckers just had to ruin it. When Alessio invited me, I had anticipated finding a big crowd. But no one was there, surprisingly. After an hour or so, only h

    My brother proposed that before the family reunion at Mum's, we should visit this new club in town for drinks or so.I was not into this, I'm better off alone and Carl knows it. I don't care if I have a relationship with any of our relatives or not.I haven't even asked Mia if she's coming. She is always busy.I miss her. For the sake of my mum, also because she's the one who came up with the idea, I can't say no.She is the only person that will tell me to do shit and I do. That woman stuck with me every second of my life and I owe it to her."Does this club belong to the bitch everyone is talking about?" Kay asks staring at the building in front of us, and that makes me glimpse at her a bit dumbfounded. Does she hate the owner or something?"Oh! Is the bitch hot!? " Marcello dreamingly retorts and I keep out of their conversation.It doesn't concern me.Two steps to the entrance, two guys stop us by roughly pushing Marcello, who stumbles three steps backward."Who do you think you

  • His Mafia Queen   Epilogue

    1 year later. Mia successfully gave birth to her two kids, Adriano Moreno and Arianna Moreno. Her relationship with Rico is still intact and her fears never came true because Rico proved to be the best partner and father to their kids. They decided to wait until Mia completed her dream mansion at the beach before getting married. Regarding the gold Maxim was after, Mia sold everything and distributed the money to the girls working in her strip club. Mia wanted to give them freedom and the girls accepted her help and moved away to start over. Matt graduated from high school and joined college through a scholarship. As promised, Carl changed and learned to help his wife to take care of their baby. Miraculously, Kay got pregnant again but this time, she willingly wanted a second baby. Fabio and Marcus continued with the businesses while maintaining peace between the two families. Dante and Diego moved in with Marcus as his second in command. Dante reunited with Sandra and his so

    Rico. The girls don't even flinch, they continue with their dance each one of them skipping the body. On the stage, a huge ethereal chair is brought. It's the same chair she was sitting on in that ring but instead of a queen, it has a tag King. It only takes a moment to realize the dead body is Maxim's. Shit. The music suddenly stops and Mia takes the Mic. "Thank you, ladies, for the great entertainment. I hope our guests enjoyed it, right?" She says and the crowd howls, clapping and demanding a repeat. Mia chuckles and walks down to Maxim's body. It's alarming how the crowd is composed even with a dead body among them. I guess this is why only the mafia was invited. She motions to one of the girls who crouches down and pulls a ring from Maxim's middle finger. Mia eyes the ring with a smirk and turns towards the stage. "Once again, you made me proud, Fabio" She smiles at the man and he returns the smile lifting his glass of wine towards her. So, this was the plan. While she ente

    Rico. The long-awaited party is finally here and I have never seen Mia so happy since I met her. She has been bubbly since Maxim signed those papers. The girl kept me up all night talking about what she was going to wear to the party, the plans for the future, and more relevant and irrelevant stuff, not that I am complaining. As soon as the clock ticked 6 am, she dashed out of bed and I had to shout after her to be careful. As the man of the house, I need to wake up even though I didn't blink the whole night. I don't bother putting on a shirt as I walk out of the room to go after her. "Do you have a date?" I hear her voice from the kitchen and I follow it. "Yes, baby. Two" Diego answers and I sigh sitting on the counter. Looks like Diego is the only one around and he is already cooking. "Give me more pancakes and eggs, and I will arrange for two hot girls to give you a lap dance. Who knows where that dance can lead" Mia whispers, and I hold myself from laughing. Of course that's D

    Rico. We are led to a huge room on the second floor that I never knew existed. A conference room. There are a few people already sitting including Fabio, Alessio, and the infamous Nikolai. "Where is Mia?" Fabio enquires, expectantly looking behind us " Maxim will be here any minute from now" He adds and I nod, pulling out my phone. Mia picks up on the first ring and her pretty voice speaks up making me happy. "Rico" She murmurs, "Are you coming yet? Fabio says Maxim is already here""Urg, Fabio again. A girl needs her time, Rico. It's men's job to wait" She chuckles and I slightly smile. So she is doing this on purpose. "Take your time, baby, I love you" I turn to Fabio and find him scowling at me. "What?" I shrug with a chuckle. "Thank you for helping, Rico" He sarcastically mumbles, and I turn to Alessio who is frantically typing away on his laptop. "Sup, friend?" I say, gently bumping his shoulder. "You owe me drinks, Rico. Friends don't forget friends" He stops typing

    'Rico. "How is Mia?" Mum eagerly asks whisking eggs. "She is, okay," I answer with a slight smile. I woke up early to surprise her with breakfast in bed. My mum being the best, was already up and offered to help me. I pour the freshly squeezed orange juice into a glass and set it on a tray. "I am so proud of you, Rico, seeing you care this much for Mia makes me feel at ease. We have come a long way, baby, promise one thing?" Mother turns to me and palms my cheeks. She has unshed tears in her eyes and I wonder if I did wrong. "Anything, mum" I assure with a nod. "Baby, promise me you will never take advantage of that girl. You should never treat her the way your dad treated me. She is carrying our babies son, be careful with her, yeah?." Her voice breaks and I deeply furrow my brows. Why in hell will I do that? "Hey, mum of course. You know I will never lay my hand on her" I frantically shake my head in refusal. I can't imagine doing that. "She is your responsibility, Rico. She o

    Mia. I sadly sigh after listening to their conversation. Men think just because they have muscles and all, they are invincible. Why don't they go after Maxim and see what happens? Even the guy I love doesn't trust me. Pff. Thank God I have Fabio. "Do you need a place to sleep or are you returning home?" I rejoin Alessio and Nicole. He wanted to say hi to Rico, only to find him in the middle of doubting my decisions. "It's too crowded here, bunny. We will be back in the morning if that's okay with you" Alessio mumbles, throwing his heavy arm on my shoulder. What do these guys eat?"It's okay, I think I should call it a day too," I say imagining myself in those soft and warm covers. "How are you holding up? A lot has happened..." When his eyes sadden, I quickly shake my head understanding where his mind is going. My bitchy mother. "I am fine Alessio, there was no other way out" I glance at Nicole and slightly smile. She must still be upset that I killed her brother. "Okay, you t

    Rico. "Is this how you treat, Kay?" I turn to Carlos the moment Mia leaves the room. "No. Of course not, Rico. It's just I am trying but sometimes that baby keeps crying and it's tiring you know" Carl defensively gets up and approaches me. "Don't you care that she gets tired too? She was crying for fuck sake" I whisper yell so as not to wake up the baby. "I feel bad about it, okay? That's why I am going to talk to her" Carl instantly pulls his shirt to join his wife in the bathroom but I quickly hand over his son to him. "That can wait, at least tuck your son to sleep first. I support her leaving for the two days. Don't dump all the responsibility on your wife" I whisper feeling so disappointed. I never knew this was how he behaved. "You will help me, right? I mean, if she goes to her dad's""Sadly, no, brother. In case it escaped your mind, I have a pregnant woman who needs as much care as the baby in your arms" I shake my head walking out of my guestroom. My brother is a lot o

    Mia. "Mum, I am hungry" I whine hugging her from behind and she chuckles. Rico's mother loves it when I address her as Mum. This also means she will give me a whole lot of food. I must be carrying two hungry men in my stomach. "I know, honey. I can tell" She stretches her hand to grab a plate and I pull away to give her space. This woman can cook. The sight of the fried chicken makes my mouth water. So brown and delicious. The aroma doesn't lie. "Here" She hands me a plate full of chicken and I don't waste any more seconds. I moan at the first bite, so spicy and crunchy. Goodness! It's like an orgasm in my mouth. "Go take a sit" She gently pushes me forward and I nod walking to the living room where Rico and his friends are sitting. I silently sit on Rico's welcoming lap and once again, their whispering stops. From how the guys are staring at me, I can tell they are silently gossiping about my eating habits in their heads, and it makes me self-conscious. " Did I do something wrong

    Mia. I chuckle at the sight of Sean. Miracles do happen after all. After betraying me, he came back only to pretend nothing happened. To make matters worse, he is actively drinking and laughing with everyone. "Is that...? " Neera follows my gaze and I nod. Such people need to be eliminated instantly. Traitors are a very lethal poison."Yes, it's Sean. You want to keep your job, right?" I face her and she quickly nods. " Good. Bring me his head and you will be greatly rewarded" The playfulness from earlier is completely wiped from my face and so is Neera. I think at this point, I need to be smart enough to get Maxim. As they say, when the leader is gone, the puppets won't be there anymore. Maxim's people will keep coming all day and all night."I will help, beautiful" Ed follows Neera and I walk into the house in search of Fabio. It doesn't take me long to find him. He, Carl, Rico, and Marcus are sitting together and they appear to be in a deep conversation. They instantly stop
