JanedoewritingsHey, everyone! I'm aiming for two chapters every day because books with two chapters tend to get better promotion. Also, it seems like some of you missed what I wrote about Marco at the beginning of the book, and it's starting to show. If you haven't, please do... Do let me know what you think of today's update. xoxo! ❤️

Marco»»»◈«««I gently laid red roses upon her resting place, my fingers tracing the engraved letters of her name on the headstone. She left this world a little too early. She had her whole life ahead of her, dreams and plans stretching out before her. She wanted to see the world with me, and I promised we'd make it happen. I swore we'd take a year off someday, just to travel and make all her dreams come true. But now, those promises lay shattered, like the petals of the roses scattered upon her grave. The ache in my chest grew heavier as I realized that I could never fulfill those vows, never bring her laughter back to fill the silence. She was gone, and with her, went the dreams we had made together.I closed my eyes, letting her smile fill my thoughts. It was a sight to behold, how it lit up her face. It was a smile that could chase away any darkness, I really liked her smile. Like...Like?I opened my eyes and gazed at her grave again. She craved love, yearned for it, and sought

Marco»»»◈«««Parking my car, I headed straight into the gym. A few of our men had been attacked in Rochester by the FBI this morning, they had brought them in for questioning, we buried the matter before it spiraled out of control.I spotted Niko in the ring, fighting with Alessandro, while Evangeline sat in the corner, gently caressing her bump as she watched her husband. I couldn't help but stare at her for a few moments, my mind drifting to thoughts of Amy. She had always wanted two children, two. I found myself wondering how she would have looked pregnant.Allegra was walking on the treadmill, and Scott stood beside her, watching her closely so he'd be there to hold her if she slipped or fell. He was protective of her more than ever as he got to know about her pregnancy as well. Delilah was sitting on Lorenzo's back as he did push-ups, her arm was still in a plaster cast. In the corner, Aurora and Massimo played, they had fake guns and were pointing at one another. When Aurora s

Lilianna»»»◈«««Today, Mrs. Moore took me under her wing in the kitchen, beginning with the fundamentals: mastering the art of cooking sunny-side-up eggs.As she cracked the eggs into the sizzling skillet, her experienced hands' guided mine, teaching me the delicate balance between heat and timing to achieve the perfect golden yolks and tender whites. Standing boldly by the stove, I confidently cracked an egg, but in my eagerness, I applied too much force, resulting in a messy, smashed egg in my hand. The gooey mess dripped between my fingers. Quietly, I retreated to the sink, washed my hands, and returned to Mrs. Moore's side. Her exasperated sigh hung in the air, but I didn't let it deter me. Sheepishly, I reached for another egg, this time applying less force. I managed a perfect crack, but as luck would have it, a small piece of shell slipped into the pan. In my attempt to salvage the situation, I accidentally broke the yolk, the once perfect egg now broken beyond repair. "You

Marco»»»◈«««I waited for her in the bedroom, taking a seat on the armchair. A sense of deep aversion with my own self ghosted underneath my skin. How could I even let this fucking happen?! Every fiber of my being recoiled at the thought of her, of what she represented – she represented her father, her entire family. The family that killed our men, women, and children in cold blood at a moment of celebration when we were off our guard. I clenched my fists, the anger simmering just beneath the surface threatening to consume me whole. How could I have allowed myself to fall prey to her wiles, to her deceitful charms? The very idea filled me with a bitter resentment, a self-directed fury that burned hotter than any flame.But even as I raged against her, a part of me knew the truth I wasn't ready to acknowledge. The memories of her betrayal, of the sins of her family, clashed violently with an inexplicable longing, a hunger that defied reason. I cursed under my breath, hatred warred

Lilianna»»»◈«««Being in the same car as him was as intimidating as sharing the same bed as him. The atmosphere was thick and stifling, making it hard to breathe as I sat there, acutely aware of his piercing gaze fixed on the road before us but those little glances in my direction sent a jolt of nervous energy coursing through my veins as if I were walking on thin ice, never knowing when it might crack beneath me. The scent of his car, just like him, enveloped me, and I couldn't shake it off. It felt like being stuck in his bubble, which should've freaked me out, but strangely, it didn't. Even after all that's happened, I couldn't deny the familiarity of his scent, as much as I wished I could.I glanced at his hand gripping the steering wheel, noticing how he drove with a relaxed grip as if he owned the road. My eyes lingered on his knuckles, battered and bruised, evidence of past fights, scabs now covered them. His hands were rugged and masculine, covered in tattoos that seemed to

Lilianna»»»◈«««To my surprise, Marco's parents defied my expectations. Despite the strained history between our families, they welcomed me with open arms, showing no signs of animosity or resentment. Not a single mention was made of whatever happened in the past, not even the incident at Marco's wedding. It was as if they were determined to leave the past behind and accept me into their family with open arms. As we sat down for dinner, Marco's father, Mario Costello, repeatedly tried to call him, but Marco ignored every single call, his father's face flushed red with anger."We've been looking forward to the day when Marco would settle down, and I'm really happy that it's finally happened," Amalia Costello said, her eyes shining with pride. Settle down? I mulled over the phrase, feeling a twist in my gut. It sounded so normal like we were some average couple planning a white picket fence future. But reality was far from it. Marco and I weren't settling into cozy domesticity. No, ou

Lilianna»»»◈«««Disregarding the other guests in the room, I approached my brother, my gaze fixed on him as he headed toward the minibar. My heart beat rapidly, blocking out the noise of the room."Samuele!" I called out, the sound escaping me like a mixture of a cry and a laugh.His head whipped around at the sound of my voice, his eyes scanning me from head to toe in a heartbeat, filled with concern. As if he was checking for any visible signs of injury, making sure I was okay.I reached him, my hand extending to touch his face, ready to pull him into a hug. But before I could, Marco's cold voice sliced through the air, causing him to take a step back from me."Samuele," Marco called to him sharply.With just his name leaving his mouth, Samuele's demeanor shifted as if he didn't even recognize me anymore.I furrowed my eyebrows, puzzled by my brother's sudden change in demeanor. Taking another step towards him, I tried to reach out, but Samuele deftly sidestepped me, a tray of drink

Lilianna»»»◈«««Ignoring their conversation, Marco forced me forward, his grip on my elbow tightening as he steered me in the direction of the bedroom. With each step, I resisted, digging my heels into the ground and trying to break free from his grasp. But Marco's strength was overpowering, and I stumbled forward, feeling the cold dread of agitation settling in the pit of my stomach.Glancing over my shoulder, I caught sight of Samuele standing there, his eyes fixed on me with a mixture of concern and apprehension. Marco swung open the bedroom door, shoving me inside before slamming it shut and locking it from the outside. Panic surged through me as I grasped the doorknob and attempted to turn it, but it refused to budge, he had locked me in. Tears streamed down my face as I lowered myself beside the door, overcome by a rush of emotions. Seeing my brother again had thrown me for a loop, making it impossible to think straight. All I could do was sit there, feeling lost, thinking of

Marco »»»◈««« My life had taken a wild turn, and I was loving every damn second of it. Ever since Lilianna got pregnant, her sex drive went through the roof. I was on-call two times a day, making sure my dick was ready whenever she needed it. Despite her long hours on set, she always had time for me, and I wasn’t complaining. She had this thing for spicy food now. She’d eat it, then cry because it burned, and I'd laugh my ass off while comforting her. Nights were the best. Sliding under the covers, I’d press my hand against her swollen belly, feeling our daughter move. Elena Rose Costello. I chose the name and had the nursery decked out with everything she’d need. I knew it was a girl; I could feel it in my bones. Lilianna would tease, “What if it’s a boy? Are you going to dress him up in all that pink?” I didn’t care. I knew it was my little girl. I was damn certain. Just like I was damn certain I was blessed. Just like I was damn certain I was in love. Just like I was dam

Mafia Men V - Marco's Vengeance Epilogue - Costello Madness
Lilianna »»»◈««« I stepped out of the limousine, the blinding flashes of cameras immediately assaulting my senses. The red carpet stretched out before me like a river of fire, leading to the grand entrance of the theater. My heart pounded in my chest, a mix of excitement and nerves, as I took a deep breath and squared my shoulders. This was it. My first movie premiere. I smoothed the skirt of my gown, a shimmering emerald green that Marco had picked out for me. It hugged my curves perfectly, making me feel like a Hollywood starlet from a bygone era. As I walked, the fabric flowed around my legs, giving me a sense of grace and confidence. “Lilianna! Over here!” “Lilianna, who are you wearing tonight?” “Lilianna, how does it feel to be here?” The voices of the reporters and photographers blended into a cacophony of noise, but I forced myself to smile and wave, trying to ignore the butterflies in my stomach. Marco was just a few steps behind me, his strong hand resting gently on m
Mafia Men V - Marco's Vengeance Chapter 110 - Motherfuckers.
Lilianna »»»◈««« I held Marcello tightly in my arms as we stepped out of the car, my heart pounding. I glanced nervously at Marco, uncertain how everyone would react to meeting Marcello. Samuele, Gabriele, Amalia, and Rio stood waiting inside our grand estate. Marcello's eyes widened in shock as he took in the sight of the massive house. "Whose home is that?" he asked in Italian. I knew it would take time for him to learn English so he could talk with the other kids here. I was determined to teach him everything myself. Marco stepped up beside me, gently brushing his hand against his cheek, "It's ours," he said. "You live here?" Marcello's eyes were filled with disbelief. I nodded, trying to infuse my voice with as much softness as I could muster, "We do, and from now on, this will be your home too." The way Marcello stared at the estate broke my heart. The images of his previous life flashed through my mind. I vowed to erase those memories, to give him a fresh st

Marco »»»◈««« The limo came to a halt outside Cala del Leone, the final surprise I had planned for her. The secluded private beach lay just outside Florence, hidden away from the world. We stepped out into the cool night air, the sound of the waves crashing softly against the shore. A table was set up near the water’s edge, decorated with flickering candles and fresh flowers. The ocean stretching out endlessly under the moonlight. Lilianna turned to me, her eyes questioning. "What’s this?" I took her hand, guiding her to the table. "Our honeymoon," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. I pulled out a chair for her, and she sat down, her gaze never leaving mine. We were greeted with a bottle of Dom Pérignon champagne, a private Michelin-starred chef preparing our dinner, and a live orchestra playing beautiful pieces just for us. As we settled in, I poured the champagne, the bubbles rising in the glass like tiny stars. The first course was served, and we began to eat.
Mafia Men V - Marco's Vengeance Chapter 108 - Making memories...
Marco »»»◈««« I held her hand, her delicate fingers interlaced with mine, and on her face was a happiness I had never seen before. She seemed truly happy and at peace. And honestly, so was I. After such a long and excruciating time, I finally felt at peace, like I was finally back home after I had been missing for years. Even though I had just met Marcello, I felt an intense connection to that little man, a feeling stronger than anything I had ever experienced. The last time I felt this enchanted by someone was when I first met his mother. He had the same captivating charm, the kind that draws you in, just like his mother. I’m a father. Damn, I’m a father, and I have been for the past five years, almost six if you count Lilianna's pregnancy. And I never knew. All this time, even without knowing about him, it doesn't change the fact that I was a father. An adorable boy, carrying my father's legacy, my legacy... I couldn't wait to teach Marcello everything I knew, guide him, an

Lilianna »»»◈««« The sight of him hit me like a punch to the gut. His small frame, fragile and vulnerable, the wide eyes full of innocent fear that twisted my heart. Those same blue eyes, unforgettable and haunting, locked onto mine after a quick, seeking glance at Betty. Each heartbeat felt like an eternity as I watched him take tentative steps forward, clutching a stuffed giraffe as if it were his only shield against the world. His eyes, flickering between Betty, me, and Marco, scanned us up and down. Betty knelt before him, her grip firm on his small arms. "Francesco," she said gently, "this lady and her husband are our friends. They are here to take us away, to help us. Now go, greet them while I pack a bag, she told him and he nodded. As he walked closer to me, every instinct screamed at me to scoop him up, to hold him tight. Tears welled up, blurring my vision. I fought the urge and knelt down, forcing a smile. "Hello, Francesco..." For a moment, he hesitated. Then, with a

Lilianna »»»◈««« I knocked on yet another door, each impact sending sharp stings through my bruised knuckles. My fingers throbbed, raw from the relentless pounding, but I couldn't stop. Marco and I had vowed to scour every house in this neighborhood. The door creaked open, revealing a middle-aged woman with suspicious eyes. Her frown deepened as she took me in, "Cosa vuoi?" she demanded. ("What do you want?") I held up a photograph of Beatrice Berlusconi, my voice trembling with hope. "Hai visto questa donna? Sai dove abita?" I asked. ("Have you seen this woman? Do you know where she lives?") She squinted at the picture through her glasses, her gaze sharpening as she continued talking in Italian, "Oh, that's Betty..." Relief washed over me, a powerful tide that nearly knocked me off balance. Marco stepped forward, his presence grounding me as he placed a steadying hand on my back. "Can you tell us where she is?" His voice was calm, but the tension in his grip showed his impatien

Lilianna »»»◈««« "We're never going to find him, are we?" I murmured, my voice barely rising above a whisper as I leaned heavily against the crumbling wall of the grimy alley in Le Piagge. I scanned the filthy surroundings, the stench of decay and neglect assaulting my senses. Trash littered the narrow passage, and the flickering streetlights cast eerie shadows that danced on the graffiti-covered walls. A rat scurried across my path, disappearing into the darkness. My heart sank further. How could a child survive here? The thought gnawed at me. While I lived in my mansions and penthouses, my son was out there, walking these streets. Fear clutched my heart. Marco's fingers brushed my cheek, and I flinched, recoiling from his touch. Since that night with Kason and Anna, a chilling dread had settled deep within me. Any contact from Marco now made my skin crawl, dragging me back to those moments of utter helplessness. I couldn't forget how powerless I felt as Anna ruthlessly ended
