Mafia Queen Chapter 48
CaraI watched his chest rise and fall steadily in his deep slumber. He hasn’t woken up despite the commotion outside. I do doubt he will. I told them to do it discreetly as I walked my way inside his territory like I own the damn place. I’m going to enjoy watching him sleep as everything is slowly taken away from him. I will make sure he will be the next one I send to hell.Romeo Reed. The guy was hell bent on his revenge on whoever murdered his father. He was younger than I had presumed– early twenties. People in that age are ambitious and he was no different. He thinks if he kills Dylan and his loved ones, he’ll establish his name. I have met men like him and sometimes, it’s not just revenge.If we talk about vengeance, then Vassily would put them to shame. It was no secret among us that he handled his enemies rather savagely. He and his father were very close. He was his everything– father, brother, best friend. Imagine that you lost it all at once.He had been the mixture of Sol

Dylan“Let me out!” I growled at Dario.He kept blocking my way, stopping me from stepping out of the penthouse. No matter how discreet I was, he still managed to find out what I was doing. I tried to sneak out but he was able to stop me from leaving. I tried to be careful, biding my time until he’s off guard. I was surprised that he knew what I was up to and he was only waiting for me to execute my plan. I asked him how. He showed me a footage that displayed my bedroom. I then realized he caught me hacking into my computer. “Come on, Dario. Aren’t you worried for your boss?” I begged. “What if something happens to her? She’s still not fully healed yet.”He sighs. “She knows what she’s doing. Her family is royalty in the mafia for a reason. I know you’re concerned for her but have a little faith, will you?”I scowl, lips pursed into thin line. “I will always worry for her. Please…”He shakes his head. “I suggest you return to your room.”“You’re not my babysitter.” I grunt, clenchin
Mafia Queen Chapter 50
DylanTwo weeks had gone by since she left. I left the penthouse and all the things that hold memories of her. I went back to using public transportation. I’d rather not use the car. It only reminds me of the time in the parking lot. Everything happened in front of that car.Within those fourteen days, I realized that my life sucked without her. I’m more miserable, lonely and hurt. I couldn’t concentrate on work. I was surprised that Hudson never pointed out my slacking off as he usually did, while he’s still like that to others. I decided to take my time off. I’m sure that Hudson wouldn't allow a long ass leave so here I am submitting my resignation letter to him. Hudson took his eyes off from the letter and raised his head to look at me. I was sitting in front of him, waiting for his reaction. I was amazed at how he was so calm about it. “I guess she didn’t tell you.”I frown. “Excuse me?”“I thought you were being modest when you’re still acting like yourself despite owning alm
Mafia Queen Chapter 51
We gathered in the dining room. Damian and grandma, on the other hand, are in their room sleeping. Ollie was lying on the floor beside my feet. Mom introduced us after placing some drinks and pastries on the dining table.The man’s name was Leandro Jilani. Apparently, he was our new neighbor. He transferred here a couple of weeks ago. “How long are you going to stay here, sweetie?” Mom asked. She was sitting on the head of the table while Leandro and I were on each of her sides.I shrug in response. “Probably for a long time… indefinitely.”“What do you mean?” She leaned in a little bit more towards me, wearing a curious frown.“I resigned.” I answered nonchalantly while staring at the pastries blankly. I was kind of guilty for doing that since I obviously took away their source of income. I wanted to return the huge money Cara sent to me but I don’t know how to. I finally decided to use it as my back up. Though I no longer have a regular job, I still do have my freelancing. I will f
Mafia Queen Chapter 52
The next day, I woke up earlier to catch up with Leandro for his morning run. I know it’s about damn time that I do that. I only slept for a few hours but I really wanted to do this so I could have a chance to talk to him.I was the first one to come down so I waited for him in the kitchen while grabbing a bottle of water. A few minutes later, I heard footsteps coming down the stairs. I walked out of the kitchen and met him down the stairs.His eyebrows raised in surprise as soon as he saw me. “Morning, Dylan. You’re up early.” His statement was more of a question as he looked at me inquisitively.I shrugged. “Yeah, I figured I’d join you today.”Leandro didn’t hide his joy and showed me a huge grin. “I’m glad. Come on.” He said, nodding towards the front door.We talked every now and then as we ran. He didn’t feel shy about admitting how happy he was that I finally accepted his offer to run with him. He appreciated that I gave him time despite how busy I am with my IT work. He said h
Mafia Queen Chapter 53
I was changing my clothes when I heard a knock on my door and Leandro emerged from the other side of the door. “Just checking on you. You haven’t gone down for breakfast.” I watched his eyes indiscreetly travel to my chest where Cara engraved her mark, as I put my shirt on. His eyebrows began to knit together as soon as he noticed it. “Yeah, I’ll be down. Just gone to check my emails.” I said, walking towards him. He nods before stepping away from the door. We then walk down together to the dining room.I sensed their discomfort while we were having our breakfast. Damian was his usual happy go lucky self, enjoying his food but Leandro and mom, not so much. “Where’s grandma?” I asked.“She already ate her breakfast in her room. She wanted to stay in and read novels. You know how she is.” Mom smiled as she spoke fondly of grandma. I noticed in the corner of my eyes that they’re looking at each other as if they’re speaking silently through their eyes. I seriously did not want to thin
Mafia Queen Chapter 54
“I assume you already know everything considering how you didn’t let your mom finish explaining everything.”“I already know Cara enough to expect that she’ll pull a stunt like that.” I responded quietly. I was no longer overwhelmed with emotions right now so I managed to talk to him level headedly. If he’s going to confess again another truth that they hid, I’m probably going to lose my shit.I haven’t told anyone about my hopeless case or how I feel about Cara. No one I know knew her. I have been bottling this up ever since. Sometimes I get angry and at times I feel nothing, just numb. Most of the time, I feel hurt. My chest tightened in pain.He sighs before speaking. “You know… before you came back, Cara sent her men here.” My head turned to look at him, suddenly interested in what he’s about to say. I feel like I’ll be facing another disappointment and pain. “I was ordered to be extra vigilant. I talked with the men and they filled me in on what happened. Our boss was shot and w
Mafia Queen Chapter 55
Weeks have gone by, my thoughts of her never wavered. I thought maybe a part of me has moved on by now. Whether it’d be big or small. And yet it felt like nothing had changed, I still feel the same way about her… deeply and irrevocably. Why can’t I love her any less?On the bright side, my relationship with Leandro was growing better. After I walked out of our talk that day in the park, he still came after me. He was relentless. He didn’t stop until he conveyed what he wanted to say. Even though I refuse to believe it, he still hinted that there was a reason why Cara did what she did and it was for my benefit and so as for my family. This is probably one of the reasons why it’s so hard for me to move on, aside from the fact that she’s my first everything. I’ve never desired anyone as much as I desired her. Even my feelings for Amilia couldn’t compare to her. I wasn’t this obsessed and sulky when I had feelings for her for a longer time. Mom was so happy that we were able to bond ag

Mafia Queen Epilogue
Cara“Ciao… fratello mio.”Vassily stilled at the sound of my voice. The door of his office paused midway from closing, his hand froze.I smirked at his reaction. I never caught him by surprise despite my random appearance.“Is something the matter, Vassily?” The tone of my voice was smug and teasing and I knew he noticed that even with his back facing me.He slowly turned around, eyebrows knitted together in a frown. “What are you doing here, Cara?” He sauntered towards his desk, not happy that I was the one occupying it. “What are you doing here?” I returned his question with conviction. “Of all places you have business with, it had to be England, huh. Couldn’t you be more obvious enough?”“I thought I was trying to be.” He retorted mockingly, arms crossed in front of his chest as he stood in front of his desk. “You know what, why don’t you just answer my question instead considering you already know mine.”I let out a sardonic smirk. “Let her go.”For the first time in my life, I
Mafia Queen Chapter 62
Seeing that she wasn’t moving from her spot, I got up and strolled towards her. Sleep abandoned me as soon as I saw her.I stopped a foot away from her. I reached for her face and paused midway when she looked away, evading my touch. I was caught by surprise but I didn’t think deeply of it. I knew she had a long night. I didn’t want to be naggy about it. Being with her is all that I need.“I’ll prepare a bath for you.”Cara stripped her clothes as soon as the water was warm, filled with her favorite scent. I longed to join her in the bathtub. By the cold look on her face, she wasn’t in the mood. She didn’t even care to wipe the blood off her face. She just sat there submerged in the water. Ignoring my overthinking, I stripped off my clothes and braved myself to join her. As soon as I settled myself behind her, I washed off the stain from her face and body. All the while, she was still and I wondered what’s on her mind why she was acting like this. I hoped it wasn’t because of me beca
Mafia Queen Chapter 61
“Why are you staring at me like that?” Franco asked while munching on his breakfast that I had made for him. I guess I was used to cooking for them back in New York. When I saw him coming into the kitchen, I offered him breakfast right away.He was smirking when he asked and I knew he knew why I’m staring at him like that.“You deliberately sent me right in to him, didn’t you?” I crossed my arms to my chest.“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” He was trying to act innocent but his eyes said differently.“What if that guy murdered me in here in cold blood? He looks like he won’t hesitate to kill me.” I said to make him feel guilty.“And yet you weren’t even hesitant to show your possessiveness.” He teases. Warmth spread all over my face at his comeback. He sighs before speaking seriously this time. “Truthfully, he was already getting on our nerves. He pissed off most of the men here. If he wasn’t our boss’ business partner, we would’ve slit his throat.”“And why exactly isn’t Car
Mafia Queen Chapter 60
“You’re right. I am not.” I answered, studying him. “I’m sorry. Are you looking for Cara? I’ll go get her-”He cut me off by abruptly standing and taking his steps until he reached my front. I felt pissed at the blatant disrespect.“You must be one of her playthings. Is that why she denies me?” He said it so calmly as if he didn’t just insult me. His eyes were scathing and searching for something that he knew he’s better at. I clenched my fists, controlling my anger. Who the fuck is this guy? In the back of my mind, I have a hunch why he’s here and who he is in her life. “Excuse me? Who the fuck are you anyway to say that?” I almost growled at him. If I’m not careful, I don’t know what he's going to do. If he’s Cara’s guest then he must be some big shot working with her. And this guy obviously has a thing for my woman. It was too late to realize that I already let out a cuss. He scowled at me and in the next second, he raised his arm obviously to hit me but stopped midair when Cara

“What?” He exclaimed as he pulled away from me with wide eyes. As if he had forgotten our mind blowing orgasm. “You love me?”I roll my eyes before replying. “I have always been in love with you. It's the reason why I easily spread my legs for you.”“Can you be serious for once?” He said with a frown. I knew he was doubting my answer.I laugh. “I assure you I’m serious about that.”He then pulled away to sit up. I moaned at the feeling when he withdrew his shaft from me. I grabbed his neck and pulled him back against me with a shattering kiss. He succumbed for a few seconds but then pulled away again and quickly sat up. “Cara, please… I really want to talk. You telling me you love me changes everything. I came here to say goodbye to you completely. I decided to accept that you will never feel the same way. But then this happened and here you are telling me you love me too.” I could see tears glistening in his eyes as he rambled. I sighed. “Is that so?” I paused for a second before c
Mafia Queen Chapter 58
I stare at her in shock. My tongue was lost for words. I tried to gather myself to speak and when I opened my mouth— she beat me to it by pressing her lips to mine. She pulled me closer, devouring my mouth like a hungry predator. I was still in shock and the fact that she suddenly kissed me, it took a while to register what was happening. It was too good to be true. I had to make sure so I pulled away.I pushed her gently. I felt the separation of our lips. It must be real. “Wait… Cara.” I watched her in a daze with my cheeks all flushed. My eyes traveled to every part of her face, especially her lips. Fuck.I’m kind of disappointed. She’s looking at me the same way she looked at me before she kissed me. Cold and unbothered. The kiss made me expect something… but I guess I was wrong.But then she pulled me again for a kiss– a hungry passionate one. I was taken aback by the force. I was overwhelmed, confused. I didn’t know what to do. I already said goodbye and this is not the respo
Mafia Queen Chapter 57
“Cara… please.” My voice is begging and desperate. She tightens her hold on my throat, I wheezed in both pain and surprise. She never goes beyond just holding my neck. This was the first time she instilled pain while holding me, not unless she’s furious. Do my feelings enrage her? Tears pooled in my eyes at the realization. She doesn’t feel the same way. She doesn’t want me.My hand clasped her wrist in an unhurried motion. I nodded at her. “I’ll go.” She then let me go.I stare at her for a while. Her cold look squeezed my heart in agony. I never thought I could love a woman this way. I couldn’t even fight with all I’ve got. What’s even my all when this woman already has everything… a lot more than I have? What’s a simple man like me offer her? Love is simply not enough.Wordlessly, I turned around. I stopped short as my hand clasped the handle. I remembered one of the small reasons why I was also adamant to be here. “By the way, please transfer the shares to your name. The company
Mafia Queen Chapter 56
I got up early in the morning for our usual run. A few weeks ago, Leandro offered to continue my training. He told me it would be good to vent out my emotions through sparring in which I agree. It also keeps me physically fit and maintains my shape.Ever since they started to convince me to go out and stop jailing myself inside my room, I’ve been out most of the time, hanging out with them, especially with Leandro. The guy was fun to be with. On the other hand, Damian had started calling him dad. He teased me that I should start to call him dad, too, which I tried. Both of us froze at the fact that it sounded uncomfortable and hilarious. Our relationship was leaning towards friendship rather than a father and son. We laughed about it and agreed that it’s better to call him by his name. Leandro calling me son doesn’t share the same feeling though so sometimes he calls me that. I’m also ashamed to admit that I’m slacking off at work. I only work a few hours a day and sometimes not. Iro
