I gape at Dante. Christos asked him not to tell us? Why wouldn’t he want us to know he was dead?

“Why should I believe you?” I say, clinging to the last vestiges of the shell I’ve built up.

He drops back into his seat. “That’s your question to answer. I’ve told you everything I know. I was just keeping a promise.”

My anger burns away my grief. “Keeping a promise? You lied to me, Dante. You let me—sleep with you, and you hid this from me.”

“I took his body out with the rest of our men,” he says like I didn’t speak. “Tony and I buried him upstate. I buried him, my friend, with my own fucking hands. I can show you, if you want.”

I slam my hands down on his desk. “Are you listening to me? What the hell made you think that would help? I’m leaving in the fucking morning.”

“That’s your choice,” he says evenly. “But you should know this isn’t a life people just get to walk away from.”

“Is that a threat?”

He meets my gaze. “It’s a promise. You have a reputation after these last two weeks

  • Indebted to the Mafia King   Epilogue

    *Tatiana*A year laterThe sound of my heels hitting the marble floor echo through the lobby of the new office building we have just acquired. This place will function as the new headquarters of the Romina Empire in Staten Island. For months, I’ve been thinking of finding a new place, somewhere closer, to work with Tony and the Saints, and this was a great deal I couldn’t turn down.Lines of men from both my sides bow their heads at me as I head for the elevator, greeting me as soon as I arrive. It still astonishes me, even after all these months, how they address me with so much respect. I earned my place, I know that, but it still surprises me. At first, when I accepted this position, I was afraid they’d only follow me because of who my father was. But, with time, I proved myself worthy of it, and I can feel their loyalty through their every word and action. I never take it for granted, though. And I never want them to feel unappreciated.I know how that scars you.We have been

  • Indebted to the Mafia King   Getaway

    *Tatiana*I walk inside the penthouse late at night, my body sore and my head aching. The rain is slamming the windows, the loud thundering and lightening making me jump as I remove my shoes and toss my purse on the couch.The apartment is dark, except for a dim light coming from the second floor, more precisely my bedroom.Angelo must be here already.I climb the stairs, massaging my neck as I try to alleviate some of the tension in my muscles.These past few weeks, my life has been nothing but pure chaos. I’ve barely slept more than four hours a night, catching up with every single business the Romina Empire has, getting familiarized with the finances and everyone who works for and with me. I had imagined it would be hard, but I wasn’t expecting it to be this much.“Hey, you’re here,” Angelo greets from the bed as I show up by the doorway. He’s already showered and tucked under the sheets, leaning against the headboard with his phone in his hand. “Another tough night, huh?” he asks

  • Indebted to the Mafia King   The Warehouse

    *Angelo*Watching Tatiana beside Tony, addressing the Saints and the Rominas, fills my heart with pride. I know deep down she is nervous, but she seems so comfortable that it’s hard to believe she wasn’t born for this.It’s definitely in her blood, and I must admit the role fits her perfectly.I don’t think I’ll ever be at ease with her being in such a dangerous position, but since I can’t do anything about it, I can only be thankful that she has this many people around her to help and protect her.It soothes my heart a little.Everyone seems to have accepted the merging, although I can see a few men still a bit hesitant about it, glancing at each other unsurely. But if I were to guess, it’ll be just a matter of time until Tatiana and Tony can prove they made the best decision.When Johnny comes rushing toward them and delivers a piece of paper to Tatiana, I know something is up. He’s been in charge of the teams we have on the streets looking for Yakov and any of his minions.I glance

    *Tatiana*Yakov has finally made a move.I was kind of expecting him to be a coward and just vanish from the world, start over somewhere where he isn’t known, or any shit like that.But he didn’t. I have to at least give him credit for not going down without a fight.As soon as I see Angelo’s text, I call him back.“Finally,” he blurts as soon as he picks up. “I’m on my way to get you. Tony has requested the merger meeting to happen as soon as possible,” he adds, not allowing me to say anything.I planned for it to be a bit more organized than this, so I could prepare the Rominas first, but I can’t refuse it. We need to come up with a plan to get to Yakov immediately. I’m quickly learning things don’t always happen the way I want, even as the boss, which leaves me frustrated.“Inform Guskov and tell them to bring everyone to the address I’m sending you now,” he instructs, hanging up on me right after. I didn’t even have a chance to speak.I text Guskov the address and ask him to prepa

  • Indebted to the Mafia King   The Rominas

    *Tatiana*My heart is pounding so hard and fast that I can hear the blood pumping in my veins as I ride the elevator to my penthouse. Angelo offered to come with me, but I didn’t think it was a good idea. This is my first meeting with the men who chose to follow me as their leader. Having a chaperone wouldn’t give me the image of a leader they would be proud of—someone confident, strong, and reliable. And that’s the exact image I want to give them tonight.I know the reason why they voted for me has everything to do with who my father was rather than my skills, but I intend to make them proud of their decision. I want to be a leader they can rely on. I want to be someone they think it’s worth risking their lives to protect everyday.When the elevator door opens to the living room, I am speechless and shocked by the number of people I see inside my new apartment. The place is packed, from left to right, not to mention the stairs, the balcony, and the second floor, with men dressed in

    *Tatiana*“So, what do you want to do now?” Angelo asks me as soon as we step out of the building. I’ve just returned the apartment key to the landlord, and even though I didn’t even spend a whole day inside this place, it still feels somewhat bittersweet to say goodbye to it, knowing Lev was the one who rented it in the first place.The suitcase he left with all the blueprints and documents regarding Oleg had been taken to the Saints' safehouse when we were preparing for our mission, so there wasn’t really anything left for me to take.I still feel like I’m leaving a part of Lev behind, and it makes my heart shrink in my chest as I stare at Angelo.“I’m not really sure,” I tell him honestly. “I need to call Guskov and set up a meeting with my men. It can’t wait any longer. Especially if we’re all going to meet with the Saints soon for the merger,” I explain, following him to his car.“Okay. What about now, though? Are you hungry?” he asks, raising his brows at me over the roof of the
