2025-01-21 15:38:00Taylor’s POV
Becky and I stayed in the living room as Simon and the detective talked in the backyard,
“What do you think he is asking about?” Becky asked. She was just as curious as me.
“I don't know. Becky, I just realized there is literally nothing I know about Kelvin”, I said,
“How do you mean?” Becky asked,
“I don't know where he is from, I don't know any of his friends except Simon. There is literally nothing I can do to help the detective to find the person that killed him. I feel so useless” I said with a sign. I should have had all the answers, but I didn't.
Was I so self-centered that I never tried to find out more about the man I claimed to love?
“Well, now that you mention it, none of us ever did. Kelvin never talked about himself, and even when he did, he didn't say much. I remember telling you how mysterious I thought he was when you first introduced me to him”, Becky pointed out,
“Yeah, I remember” I answered. Just then, the detective and Simon walked in,
“I will be taking my leave” the detective said,
“I will walk you to the door”, I suggested, and escorted him out,
“I'm leaving for France tomorrow morning” he suddenly said.
“What, why?” I asked, confused.
“A day before he died, Kelvin went to France to meet a man called Vincent Vincenzo”. The detective said, I tried to remember the exact day,
Kelvin had told me he had gone to the countryside for some work-related issues. He had told me his phone wouldn't go through, and he would call me when he was back. How the hell did he leave the country and lie about it?
“I am thinking whoever this man is knows who might have killed your fiancé” The detective said.
“I am coming with you”, I told him.
“No, this could be dangerous. I will be back and will keep you informed, Miss Dante”, the detective quickly said.
“I think Dad forgot to mention that I am quite unusual. I am going with you, that's final, and it's Taylor” I said. The detective simply stared at me. He probably didn't think I was serious.
“I will pick you up in the morning. We are using my Dad's private jet”, I told him. The man looked uncertain.
“Miss Dante…”
“It's Taylor, just Taylor, detective”. I corrected him
“I don't think your Dad will be pleased with this” he said, making me laugh.
“My Dad doesn't care about me, his opinion doesn't matter anyway. I will see you tomorrow, detective.”
“It's Lucas, since we are now on a first-name basis” he said. I nodded.
“I will see you tomorrow” I said, and closed the door as he walked out.
“I am going to France” I said when I reached the living room.
“What?” Both Simon and Becky said at the same time.
“I'm going to France tomorrow morning. The detective thinks we might get some answers if we talk to the last person Kelvin went to see before he died”, I explained.
“But it could be dangerous, you don't have to go there yourself”. Simon said,
“Yeah, I mean you don't even know the person you are going to meet” Becky agreed with him.
“That's the point, I know it's too late, but I want to know Kelvin more and if it means getting on a plane just to get to the bottom of this, then I am okay with it because I know I won't be able to handle it if I remain here wondering what the hell the detective found. It will drive me crazy. I want to have something to do, something to keep me busy, so I don't die with my depression”. My voice was beginning to break, so I stopped talking,
“Oh honey” Becky hugged me,
“I'm just worried that this isn't a good idea. How am I going to take care of you if you are so far away?” She asked, kissing my forehead.
“I have been such a cry baby, you deserve some rest. Besides, I think that detective will protect me. He has big muscles” I jokingly said, making us both laugh,
“He wouldn't win a fight with me despite his big muscles though,” Simon spoke,
“And our little Becky here is head over heels in love with him already” I chinned in.
“Really Becky? You got over me so quick, am hurt” Simon said, faking a sad expression. Becky and I exchanged looks,
She was accusing me with her eyes. I shook my head, wanting to ensure her I didn't say anything to Simon about her crush on him.
“You two are acting weird, I was only joking!” Simon said, looking at us with raised eyebrows.
“Did I miss something here?” He asked. Becky had a look of relief on her face and we both answered with a ‘’no’ at the same time.
That evening, I began to pack a few stuff while Becky watched,
“Are you sure you don't want me to come with you?” She asked. She had stopped trying to convince me not to go. She now wanted to come along, but I couldn't allow it, it could be dangerous, and I didn't want anything to happen to her.
“I deserve a moment alone with the most handsome man on the planet’’ I joked,
“Hey, his mine. You just take good care of him there in France”, Becky said.
“Did you think I sold you out to Simon?” I asked with a serious expression.
“Yes I did” she said with a sign,
“You are my best friend Becky. I thought you knew better than that. I would never make you like that”, I told her. Becky let out a sign
“I know, and I'm sorry, I just thought, since Simon is your friend, it might have somehow slipped” she said,
“I still think you should come clean about your feelings for him before you lose him, tomorrow is too late to wait, live in the moment” Becky and I had this conversation a dozen times before,
“I don't know. I believe when the time is right, everything will fall in place” she said with a sign,
“Okay, let me get some sleep. France, here I come!” I yelled, falling on the bed and pulling Becky in for a tight embrace…

Donald Dante's POV“Call Cara here”, I told my bodyguard, who immediately left the room,A few minutes later, Cara entered the room,“Sit” I said to her. She reluctantly did, she looked scared and who wouldn't, I was in a very bad mood.“What day is it?” I asked, watching her keenly.“Friday” she answered, her eyes on the floor,“Are you pregnant?” I asked.“Donald, you know this isn't my fault. We did everything right, I don't know why…” I raised my hand to silence her.“You are the most useless gold digger I have ever seen, you don't even deserve to be married to me” I said. It was a privilege she was taking advantage of, and I needed her to know.“I'm giving you one month to get pregnant. If you don't, I am divorcing you and I swear you will walk away without a dime”, I warned,“Donald, you know I am trying to be good for you, I am trying, and I just love you” Cara began to cry ,but I know crocodile tears when I see them and these were definitely them.“It's my money you love, just

Taylor’s povThe detective and I reached France early. From there, we went straight to a little village called CABONA. Once we got there,We asked some towns people where to find Vincent Vincenzo, and they pointed to a huge farm house.Vincent’s ranch was highly guarded. My Dad has bodyguards, but this was nothing compared to that. Every corner I looked were two armed men pointing their guns at us,I was a little bit spooked. The detective noticed that and squeezed my hand slightly.The driver we had hired stopped the car just outside the ranch, he got out of the car and five men approached him,I didn't even hear what they were saying but in the next moment, the driver was shot right across the head, making me scream out,“Oh my God!” I cried. The detective buried my head in his chest,“It's okay” he said. My entire body was shaking. I had never felt this type of fear before,“They are going to kill us” I cried, holding him tightly.“Perhaps let me do the talking,” he suggested. Two

Lucas's POVTaylor locked the door and went to what I assumed was the bathroom, she came a moment later with a first aid kit, she sat next to me on the bed and began to clean my cut from the blow i received earlier“Am fine, it doesn't hurt” I Said, I found it uncomfortable when someone cares for me since I have never had that privilege of being cared for since I was young“I don't mind” she said. I looked at her face as she cleaned the wound, I must admit, Taylor was different. She seemed to surprise me every moment. Not everyone would have handed what happened this way, a man was shot right in front of her yet here she was, as if she wasn't scared to death. She was a lot different than what the internet painted her. I figured she was just unlucky because she was born from a rich well known Dad, she was different than any other billionaire I met or worked for before.“What are you thinking?” I asked,“What is all this?, Is Vincent some sort of prince or what?” She asked, I didn't kno

Donald Dante's POV“Ben, are you sure about that?” I asked after receiving the most important information from him.“Yes, she is fine” he said. I didn't feel at ease despite hearing that it was almost a week since my baby had entered Cabona, whose to say if Vincenzo had not killed her already,“What would you advise I do Ben?” I asked thoughtfully.“Wait it out. Perhaps Taylor is still alive” he said. That wasn't comforting.“And if she isn't?”“We will kill each and every one of them. Vincenzo is ruthless, but he is not stupid. I am sure he wouldn't want to start a war with you”, Ben said, no matter how comforting his words were. These people were Mafia lords, they feared no one, not even the law itself.My eyes drifted off to the CCTV footage,“Cara is leaving, let's follow her” I said, standing up. Usually, I wouldn't be present to catch her myself, but I was anxious about Taylor, any sort of distraction just not to worry was highly welcome.Ben drove one of the cars, and we follow

Taylor’s POVLucas and I were taken to See Vincent. He stood up immediately he saw us.“Please take a seat” he said, still sounding friendly,“Thank you” I said. After Lucas and I were settled in, Vincent began“I'm sure you have a lot of questions so ask away” he said. I held Lucas’ hand, asking him to let me do the talking. He nodded.“Kelvin was your brother?” I asked.“Yes, we were born just the two of us. It has always been us since we were small boys”, Vincent said. He looked emotional, shaking his head.“How didn't you know he was dead?” I asked, for someone who was heavy on security, you would think he was upto date on everything since he had the means,“He was here to tell me he was getting married. He loved you very much, said you made him feel different” Vincent paused, wiping tears off his face.“He really loved you. He left a whole life behind just so he could be with you” he said. I felt my heart get heavy. Maybe Kelvin hid his real identity from me to keep me safe. That

Cara's PovI am sick. Not physically but emotionally. I realize I am losing my mind bit by bit. Lord knows how much more I can take before I lose my mind. I wanted revenge. I was ready to pay any price for it because what was taken from me was all worth it, but I didn't realize revenge would be this difficult.Donald Dante, what can I say about him? I hate him, his very existence makes me feel crazy. I admit it was all roses when I first met him, and so I had thought my revenge would be so easy. He is a billionaire, and I was just a teenage girl who lost so much because of him, so when the opportunity for me came to make him pay back what he owed me. I jumped at it, but I wasn't so sure if that was the right thing to do.I have traveled to the best places in the world, wore the most expensive outfits, outfits that cost an amount that would feed 10 people for months. I have eaten the best food in the world. Whatever I planned to do and to become as a little girl came to pass through my

Cara's POVMy entire body was shaking as Donald stood up, he held my chin up, making me look at him,“Tell me” he said in what sounded like a low, deadly tone. I didn't know if to burst out crying and show how scared I was, when his grip on my chin tightened, I shook my head.“I don't know what you are talking about” I whispered, Donald surprisingly let go of me and walked back to his seat.“You are pregnant Cara, God knows that baby you are carrying might be my heir, considering I don't know if my other daughter is even alive. I don't want anything happening to it. I want to go easy on you, but each time I look at your face” he paused, crunching his fist. I was left wondering what happened to Taylor. Despite my current situation, I found myself feeling excited to know what Donald meant by the child I am carrying being his only heir.“I promise you. I would never do anything to hurt you or our child, Donald, you just have to believe me”. I tried to sound convincing as much as possible

Lucas’ POVThis had suddenly gone way out of hand. I had many regrets, mainly about bringing Taylor with me. I should have been more stubborn about it, I should have threatened to tell her father about it or simply not told her I was coming to France, so many regrets. But there was nothing I could do about it.I realized this was very dangerous, especially since we're going to a full-blown Mafia environment where all the bad gangsters were.Lord, Vincent’s boss, had seen us enter Vincent’s residence, from what Vincent told us. He was curious for some reason about why we were here. Vincent lied and said we were his lawyers as he was facing a court case. Unfortunately, Lord was also in a similar situation and demanded our presence. It was clear he probably said this because he thought Vincent was lying. If they had kept track on Kelvin then they might have known who Taylor was already. And now here we were in a private jet, with 10 gangsters being taken to Africa where Lord was. It had

MAFIA DIARIES Meeting Eric
Lucas’ POV“Fine, take a cold shower” I told Taylor, I already know she is so stubborn and wouldn't agree with remaining behind so I decided to go with her. I went to the living room giving her some privacy while she took her shower. I have seen Various people react to expecting a baby but Taylor,I have never seen such an over-reaction before, she basically screamed the life out of herself and acted like her life had come to an end. While I understand she might have been shocked but the way she reacted was crazy, and to decide to abort immediately was even more crazy.I had never pictured myself being a father but I knew I would would one-day but Taylor, she acted like she had never considered the possibility of ever been a mother and maybe that was the case which justified her reaction but still, the whole issue was too dramatic.In the next hour, Taylor and I were at the doorstep of a man Vincent had told us about. We rang the doorbell and waited for a few minutes before he eventua
MAFIA DIARIES Branded
Taylor’s POVLucas's expression changed as he talked on the phone, I wondered what kind of upsetting news he received that had him looking like that.“Alright, I will be in contact to let you know a way to receive the information” Lucas said and quickly hung up the call“Vincent Vincenzo is dead” he said before I could ask him any questions“What?” I asked in horror“Kelvin’s brother?” I asked still in disbelief“Yes, someone killed him and branded him” Lucas explained, I sat up on the hospital bed“Branded him with what?” I asked“I don't know but him being branded is sort of a Mafia thing. Who ever killed him rans a Cartel and was sending a message” Lucas explained, I covered my palms remembering how heavily guarded Vincent was, who would manage to kill him?.“And am guessing it's not Lord and his gang” I said“No it isn't. I don't even know if Lord is aware of this” Lucas said with a sign, he sat next to me looking as dejected as I felt. “What should we do?” I asked after a moment
MAFIA DIARIES Chapter 30
Cara's POVI stood at the front door as Donald and about 10 of his men where leaving, I wondered what was happening but didn't have the time to ask Ben as he appeared to be very busy.“I don't want to hear any reports of you not eating when I come back” Donald warned me before he entered his car“Is it okay if I ask where you are suddenly going?” I asked, I know I was trying my luck, Donald wouldn't even tell me the truth anyway but I still asked“Just take care of the baby” he said, I walked him to his car Hoping he would at least give me an insight but he only entered his car and opened the window“Take care of yourself and the baby” he said again, I nodded and watched as Ben drove him away followed by the many cars that had his men in.Immediately everyone had left, I grabbed my car keys and went away from home. I went to the nearest filling station where there was a payhone. I quickly made a call to Simon“Hello” he answered after a few rings“Hey, where are you?” I asked, “Home,

Donald’s POV“Call Cara to my room”, I told Ben.“She isn't feeling too well and has been in bed for the past few days”, Ben explained. I gave him a deadly gaze. He knew I was aware of Cara being ill.“I am not planning on hitting her or anything”, I told him. I could see it was becoming difficult for him to pretend not to care about Cara. I may not be a forgiving man, but I had a lot of patience. I didn't want to let Ben know I knew everything going on between him and Cara. I was going to push all his buttons until he couldn't handle it anymore.Ben had been with me half of my life. He knew me more than anyone ever did. That's why it took me so long to accept his betrayal and even when I did, I continued to work with him, continued to pretend I trusted him just to see what he was actually planning,“I will call her then” he s

The man I assumed was the husband let out a sign.“Bring my medical supply bag right now” he said to his wife, who immediately rushed out.“Lay her on the couch” he instructed me.

I wondered why she was suddenly nice to her when she hated her,Did the two bond the previous day or did I just miss something? Taylor was impossible to deal with right now. I admit I had been rude the previous day, but that was understandable, if that little girl didn't kill herself, I didn't even want to think about the disgusting things Stan would have made her do with me. While I was guilty that I was the one that showed her the gun, I couldn't stop stressing about what would have happened if there had been no gun.“So I will brief you more time in preparation for tomorrow”, Rose said. Standing up, she handed me and Taylor some documents,“

Lucas barely ate his food,When he was done showing, he laid on the bed his eyes closed, I knew he wasn't sleeping soi sat up next to him“Are you going to tell me what happened? I am losing my mind”, I said with a sign, Lucas avoided eye contact with me making stand up and begin walking around the room“I have never seen you like this, unless the little girl that died is somehow related to you or a ghost.

She was only 23. I began to wonder what kind of horrible person she would be by the time she reached her thirties.“That was so refreshing!” She said with a massive smile,She wiped her hands clean and gestured for us to leave.“Should I drop you off at your apartment?” She asked, since it was already 7pm. I agreed with her“Sure” I said. The ride back was a silent one. I couldn't get over what I just witnessed.
