"Valentine," he said through gritted teeth, "you gotta jump. Now!""What about you Arnulfo?" she yelled back, her voice filled with fear and a touch of desperation."I will come with you!" he yelled at her, his voice unwilling to take no for an answer. "You must trust me!"A round of shots shook the cabin once again and this time a section of the wall broke open. Splinters filled the air as Valentine jumped back, wrapping the life jacket tightly over her chest."Go!" Arnulfo bellowed, shoving her toward the door.With shaking legs, Valentine ran to the edge of the cabin where the beach met the dark waters. The cold waves lapped at the sand, seeming both inviting and foreboding. She hesitated for just a moment, the weight of her decision pressing down on her. The sounds of approaching danger grew louder, creeping into her thoughts like a dark shadow. In a split second, instinct took over. She pulled on the life jacket and plunged into the icy waters below.Behind her, Arnulfo fired a fe

The moon hung low in the sky, casting soft and pale light on a seemingly endless stretch of dense forest before Arnulfo and Valentine. They pressed their way through thick underbrush; their clothes were tattered, their faces were filthy, as they fled for their lives from whatever dangers pursued them. Their hearts were still pumping adrenaline from the shootout and their narrow escape. Each step felt heavy, yet they pushed forward, knowing they had to keep moving. As they ventured deeper into the woods, the chaotic sounds of their past began to fade. The frantic shouts and gunshots were replaced by the gentle rustle of leaves and the distant call of a bird, making the forest feel both peaceful and eerie. Arnulfo glanced over at Valentine, his face taut, scanning the surroundings like an owl in darkness. He didn't expect her to say much; they both needed some time to digest the ordeal they had just escaped from-the Giupere gang.“We need to rest for a while,” Arnulfo said, his voice st

She couldn't allow him to die-not now, not now they were so far from finding any kind of safety. She shook him again, this time more forceful than before."Arnulfo, wake up!" she said, her voice rising to almost an urgent tone. He didn't respond. Valentine bit her lip, weighing her options. The situation was dire; he was the only one who knew how to get them out of here, and she was no doctor. She could try to find help but was in the middle of nowhere, miles from anywhere else and beyond civilization.The island felt vast and endless, and if she left him alone, there was a chance she would not find him again. Her gaze drifted to the fire that had burned out, the embers now cold. Her mind raced to find a solution, any solution."Think, Valentine. Think." she muttered to herself. Then, an idea sparked. She had noticed plants about the area, plants she felt sure were familiar, but those she was sure of not did her know of there medicinal characteristics. Her grandmother had once taught

"We were attacked," she said cautiously, choosing her words. "The Giupere gang. Victoria. They're coming for us." Arnulfo's face darkened with anger as he listened, and for a moment, Valentine felt a flicker of hope. But he knew better than to think like that. His body was still waylaid by the injuries and the fever.Arnulfo lay there, paralysed and in extreme pain, with a bullet stuck deep in his arm. Valentine looked at him; his body was so weak that it was shaking with fever. Shrugging her shoulders, she threw away her jacket and covered him with it, trying to be as soft as possible. She had no words to find the right things to say; their situation was grim, and she could not pretend otherwise. She couldn't shield him from it all, certainly not from Victoria, for whom nothing was sacrosanct if she wished it. "I'm afraid, Arnulfo," she said, her voice trembling with feeling. "I don't know how much longer we can hide." There was no response for a few moments.Then Arnulfo's weak hand

Arnulfo lay silent, his body wracked with fever, slipping in and out of consciousness. Valentine sat beside him, her heart heavy with worry. She sits beside him, powerless in the face of his attempts at breathing. The cabin falls silent, except for sounds of the forest outside. They had hoped for safety but found themselves in a crisis instead. She thought about how far they had come and how alone they felt. It was strange to be so lost in nature, yet so close to danger. An old lady had found them, taking them in without question, her wrinkled face soft with kindness despite the grim circumstances. The woman, who had lived in isolation for years, had tended to the fire and made them both tea.Now, she looked over at Arnulfo, assessing his condition with a practiced eye. "You have to take the bullet out," she said softly, her voice rough but firm. "That's the only way he'll recover." Valentine stared at the old lady in horror."What? Take out the bullet? I can't… I don't know how to do

She inhaled deep, still staring at Arnulfo's pale face. But yet, it was in fighting for that impossible mission of holding her back that he had protected her, even through injuries and fever. All the things that had to be endured through that hour of him taking her remained untouched, but somehow he stands before her—a man crafted from his wars, and bearing secrets she only can imagine.The soft glow of firelight cast shadows on the cabin walls, flickering and shifting like her thoughts. She couldn't explain this pull toward him now, but it was there, undeniable and growing stronger. The old woman, who had invited them into her home, had prepared herbs and set water to boil. The wrinkled hands were steady, laying out instructions for Valentine to remove the bullet from his shoulder. It terrified her but she was given no option by the urgency in the woman's voice. "You will need to be strong," the old woman said, her sharp eyes piercing Valentine's hesitation. "If you don't act, he won

As the days passed, Arnulfo's condition slowly improved. His fever had subsided, and the wound on his arm was healing, though the pain still lingered. He could feel himself growing stronger, but it was the quiet moments—when Valentine would care for him—that made him realize something deeper was happening.He lay quietly watching her as she moved around the little cabin, ministering to him with an absorbed care he didn't quite believe in. Softness now played in the sharp lineaments, softness which had not existed there before. Valentine, once kidnapped from this woman, seemed now the only person in the world who gave a damn about whether he was living or dying.Her hands were constantly engaged in cleaning his wounds, readjusting his bandages, and ensuring that he had food.She spoke little, but the care she gave him was more than enough to convey her feelings. It was hard for Arnulfo to ignore the growing warmth in his chest as he watched her selflessly tend to him. Every little gestu

The morning was still when Arnulfo and Valentine prepared to leave the old lady's cabin. The fragrance of hot-brewed tea clung to the air, a gentle comfort which both of them couldn't wholly accept in the presence of their departure. At the door stood the kind old lady, her creased wrinkled face all anxiety. She had opened the door for them, taken Arnulfo in and provided medical care for his injuries. They had been her guest for days without asking for anything in return. Valentine felt a pang of guilt as they packed up, knowing their presence had put the woman at risk. Thank you for everything," Valentine whispered, her voice full of emotion, trying to say as much as possible."You saved him. You saved us." The old lady dismissed the gesture with a hand wave, though her eyes were welling up."You don't have to mind about me, dear. Just ensure both you remain safe. Trouble has been after you as some dark cloud follows; now you have each other. Arnulfo stepped forward, his movements ca

Arnulfo pulled at his collar. "Remind me again why I'm marrying your daughter?" Valentine raised an eyebrow. "Because you love me?"Arnulfo groaned and threw up his hands dramatically. "Damn. You got me there." Don Victor chuckled. "You'll live, Vegas." Valentine stood in front of the mirror staring at the wedding gown. It was breathtaking-ivory lace, delicate beadwork, a flowing skirt that made her feel like she was floating. But what caught her breath was how Don Victor sat behind her as a reflection. His eyes were misty, his face unreadable. " Papa?" she whispered He clears his throat: "You just look like your mother." A boulder formed in the throat of Valentine. "She'd be proud," he managed to breathe the words out so that his emotions were trembling about. Watering eyes with Valentine, "Really think so?" He bent down and cradled her face. "I know so." And in the blink of an eye, she dissolved in his arms. "I love you, Papa," she whispered. Don Victor's eyes closed, and he tighten

The morning sun trickled through the grand estate's windows, dimming to a golden view of the room in which Valentine sat, carrying her newborn baby, Victoria Elise. She sighed, taking a sip from her tea when suddenly, the doors burst open. Don Victor strode into the room, full of confidence as if he had just decided to move mountains. His voice boomed across the room."Well, Valentine, mi hija, it's off again. This time, we're getting married."Valentine nearly gagged on her tea. "What?" she blinked at him, wondering if her father had finally lost it.Don Victor gave her a look of annoyance, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. "You and Arnulfo. Another wedding. A proper one. A wedding that will be remembered for generations!"Valentine opened her mouth, then closed it. “But we’re already married!”Her father waved a dismissive hand. "That wasn't a wedding. That was a disaster! Do you call being shot at, running for your life, and your sister trying to kill you a wedding

Arnulfo looked at the scene. His heart was heavy but not hollow. This was the man he had been fighting for—the man who once tried to kill him. Yet today, Don Victor was merely a father holding onto his final opportunity for redemption. Arnulfo stretched out, his gaze unyielding. To this, Don Victor displayed an expression that was unreadable. Neither spoke for some time. Then, among all the men standing there, the motion of Arnulfo's hands reached out towards him. It was a challenge, a gesture of peace offering, a guarantee. Don Victor held Valentine next to him, frozen. Then, in his slow drag, he took an indrawn breath and clasped Arnulfo's hand in return. Their grips were tight—not against foes—but two men who had seen each other enough to know for far too long. Two men whose pasts would contradict themselves yet could feel the same love, a love more ample for Valentine. “Take care of her,” muttered Don Victor so low that only a few words' meanings might be gathered. The smooth si

Then Don Victor wanted to patch things up with Valentine, so he approached her again. "Valentine, you are my only living daughter. I hope you can forgive your father for not knowing you. I tried to search for your mom, and lately, I found the truth. Please, Valentine, my dear, forgive your dad." Tears filled Valentine's eyes. "But how can you forgive me? For killing Victoria, my only sister?Don Victor shivered. "Because I failed you first."Her breath hitched."You grew up alone," he went on, his voice thick with remorse. "You suffered alone. If I'd been there-if I'd known-you would never have had to fight for your life in the first place."He touched her hands, his fingers digging into hers. "So if you can do in your heart forgive me then I—" His voice broke. "Then I'll spend the rest of my days proving to you that I'm worthy to be your father."Valentine watched him as if studying every feature on his face for one sign of lies. Every mark of the brutal Don Victor that she knew seem

A very trusted man of Don Victor arrived at the hospital when the sun was barely rising. His face was serious, though his body was stiff with unspoken words. Valentine sat on a chair by the window; Arnulfo rested beside her. His wounds healed considerably, though he still needed to recover more time.She heard the footsteps turn. She saw the man. Her heart fell. There was something about him, and she felt her chest constrict."Señora Vegas," he said, respectful but low. "I come on behalf of Don Victor."Valentine stiffened, her fingers going instinctively to grab at the material of her dress. "What is it?" she asked sharply.The man took a deep breath before his eyes met hers. "It's about Victoria."Her heart stopped."Today is her final interment," he said. "Don Victor wanted you to know. He hopes you will come… to send your sister off."A lance shot through Valentine's chest. She gasped and felt her fingers begin to quiver.Her sister.Victoria was her sister.And she had murdered h

There on the veranda of his estate, Arnulfo sat sipping the sweet scent of a breeze carrying wet earth. He had healed the wound, and though the marks both on body and heart remain, he blew out slowly as he rested one hand over where the bullet tried to take him from this life. Nearly from Valentine and the child she had inside her womb.His tranquility was only temporary.The stillness shattered with the heavy sound of his steps. He need not turn around to know who he was but the heavy-laden air that felt fraught with tension and something else, deep within—it was something left unsaid.Don Victor.The older man stood behind him, a storm rolling in behind him. Whatever words were being said, his silence was saying louder than they ever could.Arnulfo straightened himself but did not turn. "I was expecting you.“Is that so?” Don Victor’s voice was gravelly, lined with years of authority. Years of power. But beneath it was something else—grief, perhaps. Or anger. “Then you know why I’m
MY CASANOVA MAFIA MY CASANOVA MAFIA CHAPTER 118
Dark eyes met his; something she had never seen in him before; regret, pain, a sadness so deep that there weren't enough words to account for it. They were both silent for what felt like an eternity. And then, after the great long silence,he spoke."Valentina," he said, his voice rough, unsteady.She flinched. She hated it when he said that. That wasn't his name for her. Not today. Not ever before.Her fists were curled tight at her sides. "Don't say that."He exhaled, nodding slightly. "I… I understand." His voice cracked, but he went on speaking. "I don't expect forgiveness. I don't even expect you to look at me without hatred. But I need you to know—I never knew. If I had—She laughed, the laugh sharp, bitter. "If you'd known? What, Don Victor? Would it have been any different? Would you have come to find me? Raised me?" Her voice cracked as she took a step closer, the burning eyes intense. "Or just another soldier in your empire?His face contorted into a grimace as if she slap

The door shut with a soft click behind Don Victor, and silence swallowed the hospital room. The revelation was like a boulder, suffocating Valentine's chest.She could hardly believe it.Victoria. her sister.Don Victor. her father.It felt like a bad joke on truth.Arnulfo grasped her hands in a tight grip but a gentle one as he said worriedly, "Valentine, speak to me.".She shuddered, drawing an involuntary breath into her lungs. Her fingers were clutching him hard. "I don't know what to say my love," she whispered. "I don't know how to feel,Arnulfo."Arnulfo touched her cheek and raised her chin. "Then don't make yourself understand everything right now," he said, soft. "Just breathe."Breathe.How was she supposed to breathe when her entire world had just been turned inside out?She forced her hands free from his hold, wrapped them around her body to hug herself, and started pacing the room. "All this time," she said shaking her head in disbelief. "I thought I was alone. I thought

Valentine sat up on the bed in the hospital, her head in her hands. Arnulfo sat besides her, had his arm thrown over her shoulder, said not a word while holding her back.Valentine sat up when she heard a knock on the door.Arnulfo's muscles tensed. The door opened slowly, and Don Victor entered.Valentine's head snapped up. Her eyes were red and puffy. "What do you want?" she croaked.Don Victor's eyes softened, but his face remained unreadable. "To talk.""There is nothing to talk about."Don Victor took another step inside. "There's everything to talk about."Valentine shook her head, turning away. "You can't come out of the woodwork now and pretend you care about me."Don Victor took a breath. "I always cared."She laughed, and the sound was bitter. "Liar.""I didn't know about you," Don Victor said. "If I had—""If you had known," Valentine cut him off, her voice shaking with anger, "what? You would have raised me in your world? In a world full of blood and power and control?"Do
