Mafia’s Property. Fifty-One: Dr. Rueben.
Angela’s POV: “You go ahead, I’ll wait outside,” Natalia said, holding the door open for me. But I barely registered her words or presence. Not while I was fighting hard to hide my reaction. It would be embarrassing to have my jaw hanging loose. Yeah, the sight before me was magnificent. Behind the desk sat the most gorgeous man I have ever laid eyes on. He looked like he was straight out of a romance book. He had soft, curly, golden-blonde hair. His brown-hazel were so beautiful and they seemed kind. He was dressed in an impeccable white coat and a blue shirt underneath it. My heart rate picked up as he got up from his seat and approached me. “Hello, I’m Doctor Rueben. Your new therapist.” He held out his hand to me. His lips curling into a wide, polite smile on his face. For a moment, I forgot to respond. All I could see was his gorgeous face—I was captivated by it. I had seen so many good-looking men, no doubt. But something about him pulled me in, had me transfixed like a h

Natalia’s POV:I whirled around to see Gianpaolo standing a few feet away. His presence set me on the edge and annoyed me at the same time. The way his dark gaze lingered was unsettling, and my body tense with apprehension. As if summoned, the guards who'd been keeping a discreet distance stepped closer, positioning themselves protectively at our sides.Gianpaolo raised his hands in mock surrender, a sly smile stretching across his face. His guards at his side had gone tense and alert as ours approached. “Relax, boys. I’m not here for trouble today,” he said smoothly, his tone making my skin crawl. Seriously, what was his deal? I understood he had beef with Carlo, but like leave me out of it. “Then leave,” Angela snapped, her voice sharp. “Go on your own way and let us shop in peace.”His icy eyes flicked to her, his smile widening. “The mall is public, isn't it? Or is your brother claiming this space as Moretti territory now?”“Yeah, and it’s not weird at all that we ran into you

Natalia’s POV: Turned out Carlo just wanted me to sit with him, just for the sake of it. For hours, he'd ignored me, eyes glued to his MacBook as he worked. Enzo wasn't any better, he kept reviewing emails and documents on his phone too. All I could do was look out of the window and enjoy the view—more like an endless vast of clouds. About five hours later, I had grown sleepy and Carlo finally allowed me to leave his side. I was directed to the room and immediately my head hit the soft, plush pillows, I was out cold. Probably not a wise move to make as someone who had something to hide.But I was fucking tired. I had slept for over two hours and when I woke up, there on the bedside table was a meal prepared for me.For a minuteor two, I stared at the tray of food, a mix feeling of confusion and dread washing over me. I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was off. Or was I so used to Carlo being an asshole that I couldn't acknowledge basic act of kindness without feeli

Natalia’s POV: His eyes widened slightly at my bold request. My racing heart slowed. That was a good sign, right? It meant I had distracted him from the fact that I had locked the door For a moment, silence stretched between us, the tension between us was so thick, that I could almost choke on it. “Is that so?” His voice was low, gravelly, and dangerously calm. I nodded, forcing myself to hold his gaze despite the way my knees threatened to buckle. He stepped inside, shutting the door behind him with deliberate slowness. The sound of the lock clicking into place sent a shiver down my spine as his gaze roamed my body. At least he hadn't asked about the door incident. I pray it stayed that way. If begging him to take my virginity meant saving my ass, I didn't care. It wasn't like I saved it for any special reason. “You can do whatever it is you want with me,” I urged. He crossed his arm over his chest, eyes fixed on mine. “And why is that? Why are you offering yourself

Carlo's POV: 4:21 AMI glanced down at her sleeping form, my eyes roamed over her features. She was beautiful. And before I could stop myself, I let my index finger trail her soft, pale cheeks and her brows dipped, nose scrunched adorably but she didn't wake up. Must be nice to be able to sleep through the night. A luxury I couldn't afford. I hardly ever slept, the voices in my head wouldn't allow that and when I did fall asleep, it never lasted long. She squirmed in her sleep and the comforter dipped low, exposing the side of her breast, it had marks from the way I had grabbed them earlier. Memories from hours ago came flooding in. She had been bold, daring, asking me to fuck her. I had wanted to. Madre Dio, I would have taken her there and then at the doorstep but I restrained myself.Something was off about her behavior recently but I couldn't place my hand on it, couldn't tell what it was. At least not yet. Or maybe I was just seeing things…My spine stiffened at that though

Natalia’s POV:11:41 PMI slept in late which was no surprise since I’d passed out from exhaustion the previous night. My body still remembered every single touch, and every pleasure Carlo had drawn out of me.I was still reminiscing when another memory slammed into me like a freight train and I sprang up from the bed. I rounded and went to the part where I hid the phone. Digging my hand underneath the bed, I felt around for it and when my fingers grazed it, I sagged back in relief.I couldn’t wait for this to be over. I can’t keep living like this!Sighing, I got off the floor and headed to the bathroom. Minutes later, I was freshly showered and dressed. Since it was a new environment, I decided to stay back in the bedroom. Besides, sleeping all day didn’t sound so bad. I had just gotten settled underneath the covers when I heard a soft knock on the door. Groaning, I sat up. “Come in.”The door opened and Sophia walked in. “Hey, love,” she greeted, smiling brightly as she shut th
Last Updated : 2024-11-30Mafia’s Property. Fifty-Seven: Who do you belong to?
Natalia's POV: After a while, Sophia suggested we get some rest. I trudged slowly out if the water with my swimsuit clinging to my body, wet. I glanced around looking for Carlo and wondering where he was until my eyes found his and settled on him. Bluish-grey eyes locked on my clear blue ones. And then they moved, raking over my body from head to toe over and over. I knew how revealing my bikini set was and I could clearly read the hunger on his eyes. My body grew hot with his gaze and I felt my pussy get wet. The look in his eyes was so intense that I had to look away. I hurried towards the cabin, Sophia had put our bags in earlier. Needing to take a quick shower since I felt a bit uncomfortable after playing in the water. I felt his gaze on me as I walked up the pathway to the cabin, ignoring him. The moment I got to the cabin, I opened the door and went straight to the bathroom where I took off the skimpy red bikini. I went into the shower stall and put on the shower. Cold wa

Carlo's POV: Today wasn’t just about inspecting a shipment. It was about Benjamin, a new supplier Ivan had brought into the fold. I needed to see him in action, to assess if he was as capable and reliable as Ivan claimed. Trust was earned, not given, and I wasn’t one to take unnecessary risks. Ivan stood beside me, his tall frame leaning casually against another crate. He was dressed impeccably, as always, his thick coat trimmed with fur and his hands clasped loosely in front of him. Beside him was Benjamin. Benjamin was younger than I’d expected, mid-thirties, with a sharp, calculating gaze. He had the kind of calm confidence that could be a strength or a warning sign. “Shall we begin?” Ivan asked, his deep voice breaking the silence. Benjamin stepped forward, holding a crowbar. With practiced ease, he pried open the nearest crate, revealing its contents: stacks of neatly sealed bricks, their white powder visible through the translucent plastic. “Cocaine,” Benjamin said, his

Natalia's POV: After giving it a thought, I knew Alessandro was my best bet. Which was why I was here, knocking on his door at almost two in the morning .No answer.I lifted my hand to knock again when I heard feet thudding against the floor followed by rustling, then a loud thud and harsh whispers.He had a visitor at this late hour?Must be one of the girls he was seeing…Should I wait or come back later?I chewed on my bottom lip as I tried to weigh my options… On one hand, I wanted to respect his privacy and come back in the morning but on the other hand, I was impatient. This couldn't wait till morning.Decision made, I lifted my hand again but before if could connect with the door, it swung open and Alessandro came into view.Shirtless, shorts hanging loosely on his waist, hair tousled, lips looking a bit plumper than usual.He was making out with a girl then.An odd feeling tugged at my insides.

Mafia’s Property. Hundred & Thirty-Four: Change of plans
Alessandro's POV: Going back to have a talk with Luca was a waste of my time. The little shit has his mind made up! Shit! Shit! My hands flew to my hair, tugging painfully as I paced the length of my room. This was bad. For me and my partner. We were so fucking close! What was Luca thinking, really? How could he suddenly come back home and ruin everything for me? If he marries Natalia that was bad news for me. I was already plotting on how to use their growing relationship to my advantage and now that is ruined?! Fuckingshit! But the poor girl though… I knew I didn't care much for her but… she has been through enough already. I could tell she was already in love with Carlo. How would she handle this? Was there even a way to help her out of the mess? I don't think so. Carlo was adamant and very clear about his standing on this matter. The bastard didn't even flinch or show any emotion after he'd just broken the poor girl's heart. I really wish I could help. ‘Snap o
Mafia’s Property. Hundred & Thirty-Three: I don't want to hurt you
Natalia's POV: LATER AT NIGHT…This was stupid. I thought for a billion times, yet, I found myself standing at Carlo's doorstep…Ever felt so nervous it felt like you're about to shit yourself? Yep, that was how I felt as I raised my hand to knock on his door. With each rap of my knuckles against the wooden door, the pit in my stomach deepened.I counted down to seven before I heard his heavy footsteps pad across the room and in no time, the door swung open, revealing a shirtless Carlo. Those impressive pecs on full display, rock hard abs, flexing. A trail of dark hair starting from his lower abdomen and disappearing into the waistband of that seductive grey sweatpants he had on.I gulped. Hard. ‘Get it together you fool.’My eyes lifted back to his, the surprise in those bluish gray eyes was palpable. I cleared my throat. “Uhh, hi?” ‘Really? Is that all you could say?’“I need to speak to you.” I said, a lot firmer this time and with a lot more confidence. But his expression quic
Mafia’s Property. Hundred & Thirty-Two: Consolation
Natalia's POV: AFTER BREAKFAST …I think I slept off after crying again. Not sure how long but my eyes snapped open when I felt fingers in my hair. My eyes felt heavy and painful, my vision was a little blurry from all the crying and sleeping…I sat up slowly, forcing the fingers to leave my hair and I blinked as my eyes focused on the figure before me. “Caterina?” I moved slightly, wincing as my whole body ached from sleeping on the ground for hours. “Hey, dear.” Her hand came up to cup my face gently. “I brought you breakfast.” She motioned behind her and that was when I noticed Angela and a maid standing beside her with a tray of food.“There's a chocolate mousse cake too, I know you love those,” Angela urged with a smile.Ignoring her, I let my eyes shift from one woman to the other and I hated how vulnerable I feel. Pushing to my feet with great difficulty, feeling/hearing my bones pop and I winced. “I'm not hungry,” I said softly.“Nonsense.” Caterina's voice was soft, but f
Mafia’s Property. Hundred & Thirty-One: It Is Final!
Carlo's POV: “You did what?!” Angela screeched, breaking the uncomfortable silence in the room and Luca just seemed… unbothered Luca months back would never behave like this.Where had I gone wrong with him? Did I push him too hard unknowingly? Does he hate me?Lord knows I was out of my depth here. It felt like I was drowning… It was all so… overwhelming. Zia placed her hand softly on Angela's shoulder. “Calm down, dear. I don't think he meant what he said.” Her eyes met Luca's. “You didn't mean it, right? Tell her.” He let out a small laugh shaking his head. “Now why would I joke about something like that?” The look on zia's face at Luca's statment would be funny if this situation wasn't already too fucked up and complicated. And for the first time in years, I felt like a coward. The biggest coward to have ever graced the surface of the earth. “...She was meant to be my bride after all,” he continued casually. “All I did was ask to push through with the wedding.” “But she's y
Mafia’s Property. Hundred & Thirty: You Did What?!
Natalia's POV: My tongue felt heavy, the fight in me evaporating from my body as I could do nothing but watch Carlo leave my room like he didn't just shred my hearts into a thousand pieces. I couldn't tell what hurt me more. The fact that Carlo had just handed me to his son like I was nothing or the realization that my feeling was/will never be reciprocated. Hot tears hit my cheeks before I could stop them, my knees hit the floor as I clutched at my aching heart. Stupid. I was stupid to fall for the one man I couldn't have and shouldn't want… Fingers grabbed my chin painfully and my eyes snapped up to meet Luca's as he crouched down slowly. “You're crying like I asked to kill you or something.” He huffed a small laugh, smirking. “Is marrying me so bad that you have to look like this….?” His eyes roamed my face. “Like a heartbroken mess?” Yes! I wanted to scream, to yell, curse at him and maybe use my fist on him. But I couldn't. I felt drained, weak, I could only just kneel th
Mafia’s Property. Hundred & Twenty-Nine: A Decision
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED & TWENTY-NINE: Natalia's POV: ‘Who is this person, Luca?’His hands fell from my arm like he'd been burned and he stepped back abruptly, confirming my suspicions but his face remained stoic.Someone wanted this—what was happening. But who and why?I ignored the burning sensation lingering on my arm from where his fingers were and I took a step forward. “Who are they? Cause I can tell you for a fact that they're lying and I didn't take you for someone who could be easily manipulated!” “You're delusional, no one said a thing to me. This is clearly an observation!” He shot back fiercely. “No one tells me what to do and I'm not being manipulated. This is all me!” Then why do you look so shaken? Like you're desperate to keep a secret to protect this person?! I didn't say that out loud though, he was determined to keep his mouth shut. So nothing I say or do will change a thing. “Alright, fine. I've heard you,” I said softly, hoping it would calm him down. “No one i
Mafia’s Property. Hundred & Twenty-Eight: Who?
Natalia's POV: I stood close to the door as Luca stood in the middle of my room, his hands shoved into his pockets, eyes fixed on me. Shit. I chewed on my bottom lip nervously. What do I say? ‘Please I don't want to marry you. I already have feelings for your father’ or ‘We can't get married. You do know I have sexual relations with your father, right?’ None was convincing enough. Just plain stupid. I'd brought him up here without a goddamn plan. What on earth was I thinking? “...I don't have all day, Natalia.” His voice penetrated my thoughts and my eyes snapped back to his. I can do this. This is just Luca—even though he's changed a bit… Keeping my eyes fixed on his, I cleared my throat, wiping my sweaty palms against my leggings. “Uhh… how have you been?” Easing into a conversation was clever, right? “You just…just.. disappeared… I… I hope you were doing alright wherever you went.” And I meant that sincerely. He scoffed angrily, eyes blazing as he regarded me slowly. “
Mafia’s Property. Hundred & Twenty-Seven: Talk With Luca.
Natalia's POV: This has to be a joke. Really. A mean one.He was threatening them now? With his death? There was no way Carlo would refuse him now. No way. As much as he'd like to act tough to the outside world, act like he didn't have feelings, I knew how much he loved Luca. He wouldn't let his son die just because of me…I was literally nothing to him. Just his property.My eyes stung with impending hot tears and I blinked them away…With everything that had been happening these past few months, I'd forgotten my place in Carlo's life and I foolishly fell for him…Now look. He was going to give into Luca's demands, that much was certain.I could still hear them trying to reason with him. It wasn't working.I could feel my hands literally shaking, my hair sticking to the back of my neck from the sweat there as my heartbeat echoed loudly in my ears.This was bad.This was really fucking bad.My stomach churned, making my insides twist uncomfortably—a prize for letting curiosity get
