I rubbed my tired eyes and mustered up the energy to respond to my father's call. "I'm coming, Dad," I shouted back, my voice laced with reluctance.Reluctance to face the life that was thrust upon me, where my own desires were overshadowed by the demands of my father's mafia empire.Dragging my feet, I made my way downstairs, the weight of the impending meeting pressing down on my shoulders. The grandeur of the house, adorned with expensive furniture and ostentatious decorations, only served to emphasize the stark contrast between the world I longed for and the one I was trapped in.I wish I could just be a pet cat of a normal family—no worries about anything but sleeping, eating, and playing.But there was nothing to do now that I was born into a complicated family as a human.The atmosphere at home was suffocating, filled with the scent of cigar smoke and the hushed whispers of conversations held behind closed doors.As I entered the living room, I caught a glimpse of myself in the
I found myself inevitably drawn into the enigmatic world of Bruno Antonio. His name reverberated through the echelons of the mafia, accompanied by whispers of fear.Every conversation seemed to orbit around him, an unspoken understanding that his power knew no bounds.Bruno Antonio, a man whose very name commanded respect, tinged with a perfect dose of fear and intimidation. It was said that his wealth knew no limits, his influence stretching far and wide, like a sprawling empire within the vast landscapes of Texas. He controlled territories that spanned from the bustling streets of Houston to the desolate plains of El Paso, a web of power that ensnared all who dared to challenge him.Drug deals, smuggling, and illicit trades danced beneath his watchful gaze. The depths of his control were immeasurable, his reach extending into every crevice of the underworld. Texas, once known for its wild spirit, has now become a playground for Bruno Antonio's manipulations.The thought of his terr
As the private jet touched down in Los Angeles, the city of angels welcomed us with its glittering skyline.Bruno, always one to make a statement, had chosen the opulent Grand Royale Hotel as the venue for the fundraising party. This five-star haven exuded luxury from every corner, its grandeur befitting the elite guests who would grace its halls tonight.Stepping out of the sleek black limousine, I wasn't sure if I still wanted to attend the party after the intense conversation with Bruno.No matter what he said, his intention was clearly to implant fear into my heart, and I couldn't say he quite failed.This event, organized by Bruno but executed by one of his trusted associates, aimed to raise funds for orphanages, an unlikely cause for a man known for his ruthlessness.Yet, deep within his hardened exterior, Bruno found a flicker of compassion, a connection to the struggles he had faced in his own upbringing.The hotel's entrance gleamed with polished marble, reflecting the warm g
The room was shrouded in an eerie silence, broken only by the sound of labored breathing and the occasional drip of water. Dimly lit by a single, swinging bulb, the space exuded an atmosphere of desperation and impending doom.Nicolas' eyes were filled with fury, anger, and determination as he stood before the captured man."Who sent you?" Nicolas bellowed, his voice laced with an unforgiving edge. The man before him was beaten and bloodied as he struggled against his restraints, defiance etched on his face. It had been a grueling week for Nicolas, a relentless pursuit to uncover the truth behind the attack that threatened Bruno's empire and our lives two weeks ago.The captive's eyes darted from Nicolas to me as I was there to watch and see firsthand what Bruno did to people who cross him. There was a flicker of hesitation and fear momentarily clouding his gaze. He knew the consequences of his silence, the pain that awaited him. Yet, the loyalty to his gang, and his unyielding d
Chapter 5: Whispers of LoveThe words from Luca echoed in my mind, "I'm going to make you mine and mine alone.” That's what he said, and each day I kept faith and hoped that I would wake up every morning to see him by my side.His unwavering devotion filled my heart with warmth, even amid the darkness that surrounded us. I yearned for a future where we could be together, free from the chains that bound us to this ruthless world. But for now, we have to keep it quieter, we didn't want Bruno to find out. Luca, a man of compassion and healing, was a beacon of light in my life. As a doctor, he dedicated himself to alleviating the suffering of others, a stark contrast to the world of darkness and violence I was immersed in. He brought a sense of peace and hope into my existence, reminding me that there was more to life than the twisted machinations of power. I liked feeling his eyes on me when I looked away. He was such a lovable person.One of Luca's passions was photography. He had
Chapter 6: Shadows of Deception"Don't hate the sinner, but the sin."My dad was not a good man, but he tried to instill in me some life lessons and how to live life. There was a verse he always read out to me, "Do unto others what you want them to do unto you," That was life's golden rule, apparently.I have tried to live by that rule. Now, I guess things have gotten out of hand.My guilt of being in a relationship with Luca while I'm betrothed to Bruno was going to come against me. That fear was eating me up.However, things had been going quite well, not until something unfolded, casting shadows over the empire that took Bruno lots of sacrifices to build. I found myself here even though I never wanted to be here. I craved a life of my own choice, but thanks to my father, I was stuck in this web of deception that threatened to unravel everything. Bruno's warehouse was attacked, and many of his workers were killed. His drugs worth over $50k were burnt—an assault orchestrated by Los
Chapter 7: Unveiling My Hidden Skills"A new day starts with darkness. We should learn to start new beginnings using our darkest side. Nothing ever goes as planned in this accursed world. Learn to make things go your way. The weak don't survive here." I think my dad should have been a psychology professor or something like that. Every morning before I started my day, I always remembered one of the quotes he always said to me. Well, life has its way of dealing with me. That was why I was so tired right now to leave my room. In the aftermath of the turmoil that had consumed our lives, I embarked on a journey of self-discovery, uncovering hidden talents that would transform me into a formidable force. The deal I agreed with Nicolas still rang in my head every day. It echoed the thoughts of betrayal to me, but I refused to be a mere pawn in this dangerous game.I delved deeper into the dark underbelly of Bruno's empire, determined to unearth my own potential. I sought guidance from seas
