Love in Deceit: Mafia Boss's Enigmatic Wife Chapter 48 – A Clash: Jaguar VS Natalia
JaguarA smirk played on her lips as she lunged at me. I avoided the kick but I'm pretty sure it was heavier than it looks. She's petite and skinny, but I should do better than judge a fighter by how they look. Especially when she's so emotionally driven after she found out I'm her father's killer. I saw the power and strength that contained that kick and if I received that, I would be dead on the spot. She must be a close aide of Jett Rios if she's this physically capable. I was on the defensive for the first few seconds, trying hard to deflect or avoid her heavy and calculated attacks. She's mastered Muay Thai and Krav Maga since it's evident in her style, which is difficult to win against. Add the handgun that she's gripping tightly and sometimes using to strengthen her punches. I jumped and ran to the ruined couch for cover when she rained down bullets from her gun. I glanced at Fox who was quietly trying to lift his wheelchair. Our eyes met and he signaled at his wheelchair, im

Fox"Kidnapped, you say?" My hair rose at the calmly sinister tone the Director used. God damn it! Why do I have to report this to him?! Why not Leo?! He's the scariest man in the HQ and they're throwing me, the youngest, to face his wrath! Immediately after last night's events, I ran to Leo's apartment to ask what I should do. Leo panicked as much as I did and told me to report back to the HQ personally since this was an important matter. In a panic, I didn't realize she used me as the scapegoat to avoid the Director's wrath. Damn, Leo! This is why I deserve to be the next captain and not her!"E-Everything happened so fast, Sir," I reasoned, "I only realized he was gone when I saw a suspicious black van drive away. I doubt he was killed and assumed he was kidnapped."Director Morris's sharp stare made me sweat cold bullets. This guy. "Fox, I expected this mission to not go as smoothly as it should but it will be a real shame for the agency to lose the elite captain when in a mis

FallonI worked on keeping my expression blank, like a fresh slate. Like I was not looking at the bloody sight of the man I've always revered and... loved. He raised his gaze to stare at Jett and I saw blood trickle from his forehead to his chin, going through the side of his eyes like he was crying crimson tears.But I knew he was far from tearing up. I was proven correct when I saw the side of his lips curl up to a smirk. A condescending and mocking smirk that I was sure threw my husband off. Jett sent a harsh blow as he released his grip on Jaguar's chin, sending him to the wall. I could feel the vibration when his skull met the cobbled wall and I couldn't help but show my wince.I doubt Jaguar will survive another one of those. So I tried interrupting."Jett," I called him. "Isn't that a little too rough?"Jaguar's eyes went to me. Our eyes briefly met but I quickly averted them to look at Jett's back. I couldn't see what expression he wore but I doubt it's a pleasant one."If you

FallonI understand Chris must've been on edge for the past few weeks because of the inner turmoil going around them because of a traitor. But it's just way past the line to suspect me of all people, just because I recently arrived and doesn't have a reputable past."Then I'll let you read this first." Chris slid a folder over to Jett. He skimmed through it and I read his expression—sarcasm and mockery was evident in his smile. I see it clearly and I think the Agnellos also do... until I looked over at them and saw their cluelessness. I'm starting to think I overestimated the Agnellos."Correct me if I'm wrong, but you're offering a merging proposal of the two mafias? And we will share authority?"Chris nodded confidently. "It will be to our both interests and—""The Rios cannot share their authority, Chris," Jett cut him off. "That's never been done before and it's highly unlikely that it ever will. And I cannot risk the safety of the mafia right now."I saw Chris' jaw clenched. He p

FallonIt had been four days after Jaguar came to the mansion. Four eerily uneventful days passed and I still couldn't find the right time to have a word or two with him. The reason why is because my husband has never left my side for no more than five minutes.He changed so much since that night and I wonder if it's because he genuinely likes me or because he's keeping his eye on me, warily, watching my every move should I do something to the mafia. The latter is highly likely. I've realized now that Jett is difficult to understand. Nobody can know his entire personality. Unless they've known each other since they were babies and the only person like that here is currently unconscious and is still fighting for her life—Natalia.Her condition is still critical even after four days. They said she was almost done with those high-caliber machine guns that I assume were Fox's and that had she been treated any later than a few seconds, she wouldn't have made it. Needless to say, the mafia

JettI leave Fallon's side for a few minutes and she's already nowhere to be found.Sighing, I walked out of the empty room and looked around, hoping to see a shadow of her.The mansion was breached and I came inside to check if my wife was okay. The rage currently swirling inside me is uncontrollable but I have to keep a calm mind in this situation.Our defense is getting too sloppy that I know I'm gonna have to re-discipline my men after this is all over.The strict frown on my face intensified when I came to check on Jaguar, his name being one of the useless things he told us, and found out he had escaped. I hadn't killed him yet but I injured him to the point of near-death so it's a real wonder how he uncuffed and unlocked the cell—unless, this was an inside job. Then it would be a more serious problem because that person if remained on the loose, would rot the mafia from the inside."Look for your mistress!"I barked the order at anyone I crossed paths with as I made my way outsi

FoxMay that woman respectfully go to hell.I slammed my fist on the wheel as we drove away. It was damn hard to lose the cars following us but after an hour of sweating and trying hard, we finally got away. They were persistent as fuck, living up to their reputation of being the most infamous mafia around here. But the hell I care, as long as I get these two back—and I only got one!"Why the hell did she not want to go with us?!"I've been screaming the same question over and over again because I can't seem to understand why she let us take only Jaguar. Speaking of, I glanced at the rearview mirror to check his state."Is he gonna live, bro?""He will. Don't worry," one of the agents trained in paramedics replied calmly. He was so busy wrapping bandages all over Jaguar that I almost mistook him for a mummy."Can someone confirm if Leo's at her registered apartment?"I asked again, hoping to seek refuge in her place. Leo has been quiet about Jaguar's issue. The time I needed her the m

Fox"What loose ends do you mean?" Leo walked farther away from the others and I followed. This was not the first secret side mission that the Director had given us. Who knows, maybe Jaguar was also on a secret side-mission too so he let himself be captured. At this point, I don't even know. She spoke after sighing, "The Director had to make sure Hawk is not making allies outside of the FBI. He's grown wary for some reason, and thus, here I am checking if she's made connections in the Agnello mafia." "Why is she not allowed to make allies outside the FBI?" I curiously pried. "Because those allies are not to be trusted, Fox. They can betray you anytime and if Hawk depends on them too much, it will also endanger the mission." I turned quietly to ponder over what she said. It sounded correct but at the same time incorrect.Why would Leo think Hawk would depend on people she just met over us, the FBI, who's been with her since day one? And why do they immediately assume she'll be bet

“One hundred! One hundred going once…” The auctioneer’s voice echoed inside the art studio, but it was slowly zoning out from a young man’s ears as he stared intently at the painting getting auctioned. “Going twice… No more? And…sold! Item 34 sold to Number 456 for 100,000 dollars!”Sebastian never imagined himself in an auction, better yet coming home with a bought item. He smiled and sat through the rest anyway, keeping his number on his lap. He’ll only auction for that one painting since all he needs is the experience for their next big assignment.After the auction, he went to the cashier to pay for the item and he was guided backstage to claim it. He thanked the cashier curtly, maintaining as minimal eye contact as possible, and pulling his black fedora hat lower as he picked up his item.It was an original painting by an international artist. It was half his size and had a simple but deep drawing. Sebastian sighed and left the auditorium with the painting. This can be his birthd

In a quiet neighborhood by the north, where a recent historical moment took place, lived a small family of three.

Note:This is the last chapter. Thank you to everyone who made it to this point! It has been quite the journey ^^ It took us a few months and a lot (I mean a lot) of mental breakdowns and writer’s block. Nevertheless, it was fun to tell Jett and Fallon’s story. This book has a lot of errors, I’m sure, but I made it with full sincerity and honestly enjoyed the journey to the end. I will edit it if I’m allowed, but please bear with the errors for now. ^^Please do not be shy to drop your thoughts, sentiments, and/or feelings, that you wanted to express while reading in the comments. I will be happy to see you guys and interact with you (if it’s possible) in the replies. The chapters that will follow will be special chapters for our precious side characters.

When he first saw her, he never thought she would be the woman t
Love in Deceit: Mafia Boss's Enigmatic Wife Chapter 94 – This is home
Warning: mature content.On a private island in Jett’s homeland in Madrid, lived a small family of three. It was a secluded island with only one mansion of marble and glass standing by the beach.From its lounge, a woman sat with crossed legs and a warm cup of coffee on her lap, watching the rising sun from the horizon of the sea. Her pin-straight black hair draped over her shoulders as her freshly returned bangs gently swayed over her forehead, inhaling the sweet morning dew. Her satin robe slipped and showed her smooth legs as she crossed her legs, letting the cold air seep into her nakedness under the robe. She paid it no mind and continued to appreciate the serenity the new dawn offered.Ah, this is the best retirement life she could’ve ever asked for, the woman thought.After years of constantly glancing over her shoulder, keeping her guard up, and longing for someone, finally, it’s all over. To live a life of languid and slow-living. To live without any reservations and … to ha

“…Therefore, the judge’s verdict shall be…”Warren Mongarde, who was once a mighty powerful man in a suit, looked as if he aged so much after a few weeks in trial. Cuffed and unshaved for days, he looked forlorn and misunderstood, to appeal to the jury.But it was all for naught when he heard it.“Guilty.”And the judge slammed his gavel decisively.Guilty. Such a small word for such a big thing.He knew his life would change drastically from here on out. It was inevitable. But for his age, he’d say he’s achieved enough. He’s already been the President of the US; is there anything more he can achieve to top that?So he laughed. He laughed loudly, his voice resonating in the court. All eyes were on him, but he continued to laugh. Their once dignified President now looked like a crazed serial killer who had just been sentenced to a life sentence.He doesn’t care anymore.Maybe, if he was given the chance to exact revenge…but he’s too old for that. He’s past his prime. He can’t even prop
Love in Deceit: Mafia Boss's Enigmatic Wife Chapter 92 – Send-off Party
FallonI was on the stairs of the jet when they pointed a gun at us. When I turned, I saw a Jaguar with a gun. Behind him were Leo, Rhino, and Panda. They all wore serious faces. I involuntarily gulped.From in front of the airport, I heard the cops’ sirens and sounds of shots being fired. Matt must be shooting them down as we speak.I put Sebby down and whispered, “Go inside.”“But Mama…”“Go.” I cut him off. “Mama will follow, I promise.”Sebby hesitantly entered the jet. Jett, who was also in the process of climbing, stared at Sebby with quiet reassurance. Once he was inside, I pulled out my gun. The pistol is in the hidden compartment with the silencer. I can’t believe my last use of this would be towards my colleagues. I roamed around the hangar and found one of its CCTVs.Jaguar found out what I was looking at and said, “It’ll only be hijacked for one minute more. We took too long.”“I see,” I said and locked eyes with all of them. My arm holding the gun was trembling. Everyone

FallonI watched Jett stagger backward and cough up blood.The man laughed, a mocking laughter. It irked me. Subconsciously, I was in the air and my feet connected to the side of Rhino’s head. My body twisted and delivered a clean flying kick to his head. It was over before I knew it, and the six-foot-tall giant was already clutching his head and groggy. I didn’t mean to attack one of them like that…but after I saw Jett and heard the man’s derisive laugh, I guess I lost it. “That’s all you got?”I heard a sneer from behind. Realizing what I’d done, I sent an apologetic gaze to Rhino who was still dazed and visibly disoriented. “Looks like you’ve lost your touch.”“Why don’t you come at me, then?”The man chuckled and walked toward us, provoked.“Fine.”I backed away, giving them space to fight. Jett was only barely taller than him, and the man was more buff. Jett was in his stance. The latter was standing upright, relaxed.I thought he’d go on the defense, but after Jett’s first pun
