Alessia Rossi

Even after an hour, my heart was hammering in my chest. I am trying to convince my mind that it was just a dream. But it felt too real to ignore.

It was the first time that I had seen a clear face in a dream.

The sheets were still damp with my sweat. My fists tightened as I pulled the sheets closer to my trembling body. I had been forcing myself to take slow breaths, but nothing is helping. My heart felt too heavy, and my head was still spinning with all the thoughts.

I hugged myself and rested my head on my folded arms, looking outside through the slightly parted curtains. The pain is overwhelming and unbearable.

I had always seen silhouettes and blurry images. But today, I saw a clear face, and that has made it even worse.

"Nikolai killed your baby, Alessia." Dimitri’s words echoed in my head.

When Dimitri told me that Nikolai killed the baby, I couldn't believe him. But now, the dream is making me think otherwise.

I couldn't believe that Nikolai had killed the b

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    43. Broken

    Trigger warning ~ "Did you kill my baby?" "Yes, I did!" Stunned. Silent. Speechless. Frozen. Terrified. This is what I was after hearing him. Suddenly, he stepped forward and grabbed my face from between his palms. "For me, Alessia, no one has ever been above you before, and no one ever will be. If I have to kill my child for you, I won’t hesitate again. As I said, I can burn down the whole world for you—I still stand by it." The way my father has loved me and Marco, I can't even imagine someone hurting his child. How could he? My breaths came in ragged gasps. The room began to spin, and my vision became blurry. The only thing I could see was the monster in front of me. Even after confessing to his crime, he dared to look into my eyes. He proves me wrong every time I think he could not stoop lower than this. My fingers trembled as they curled into tight fists. He killed my baby. He took the life that was growing inside me, a life I never got the chance to

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    44. Chained

    Nikolai Moretti Alessia has told me that she hates me many times before, but it has never hurt as badly as it did today. There was something raw and devastating in her voice as she said that. I saw something worse than hatred in her eyes, and it was utter despair for me. She had fought me before, glared at me, spat venomous words at me, and defied me multiple times, but I had never seen her break like this. I have always liked this fiery side of her. I like it when she fights me, not when she shatters. She is my doll. I want her to be strong, not something so fragile. Her eyes were heavy with tears—those years she didn’t allow to fall down. She looked up at me as if I were the monster she had spent her whole life running from. And maybe I am. I let her go from my arms when she stumbled back. Keeping her close to me stressed her more than calming her down. When I thought she would breathe and try to compose herself, she started looking for something, and when she couldn

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    45. Escaped

    Nikolai’s POV "Boss, Dimitri has escaped." Fuck! My grip on the empty glass tightened. My jaw clenched as I tried to process the guard's words. Dimitri has escaped? How? Rage coursed through my veins, burning hotter than I had ever felt. I was going to punish him cruelly for what he had done to Alessia. But the bastard ran away before I could reach him. Suddenly, my attention shifted when I heard Alessia's laugh. I turned back to her to find her on the floor, laughing like a maniac. Her chest rose and fell rapidly, her hands clutching her stomach. The fire in her eyes was back, but not in the way I desired. "You planned this, didn’t you?" I muttered under my breath in a dangerously low voice. Instead of answering me, she simply smirked. One side of her lips curled into a deadly smile. My blood boiled. She helped him. My patience snapped, and I lost control. "Do you have any idea what you’ve done?" My voice was barely calm. Her lips parted slightly, but she did

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    46. Stay or Leave?

    My skull pounded with pain as if tiny needles were piercing every inch of my head. It felt like I had been tossed around and left to rot. My eyelids feel heavy, making it difficult to open my eyes at once. Before I could force them open, a strange scent filled my senses. It was unfamiliar yet oddly refined. Suddenly, I remembered the last thing that happened to me before I lost consciousness: the car, the rough hands, the sweet, sickeningly scented cloth. I was kidnapped! Panic surged through me, and instinctively, my eyes shot open, only to close immediately as the sharp sun rays blinded my vision. It was already morning, meaning I had been out all night! A shiver ran down my spine.My first instinct was to check my clothes, and I was relieved to feel them against my skin. It took me a few minutes to adjust my vision to the light. Slowly, I sat up. A wince escaped my lips when pain shot through my limbs. My collarbone ached, my knuckles felt raw, and my knees throbbed as if I

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    47. The storm

    **Third Person POV** Nikolai stormed into the mansion. His eyes were deadly and ready to burn; his palms were curled at his sides into tight balls, ready to punch; and his body was taut and eager to kill. His breaths came out loud and rough, barely containing his anger. His muscles twitched as he rotated his neck. He couldn't believe that Dimitri had slipped through his fingers. He searched for the traitor everywhere but couldn't find him. Nevertheless, he was determined to find that bastard again and get rid of him. It was midnight when he returned home. There was a deadly silence all around the mansion; the air was suffocating with tension as if the walls sensed his anger. Not even the wind made a sound as if he could stop it with his rage. He was out of control. He knew only one person could calm him down, and that was his wife, Alessia. He not only wanted her; he needed her. After what had happened earlier, he knew she would not let him near her, nor did he want to push

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    48. The traitor

    Alessia's POV "Nikolai is out there looking for you like a hungry wolf." Antonio's words rang in my head, and I stopped dead in my tracks. My brain felt like a battlefield, torn between what I should do and what I wanted to do. I wanted to run out of this house, away from Antonio, away from everyone, but I knew that the moment I stepped out, Nikolai would find me. He would drag me back to his cage, and this time, his wrath would be unforgiving. All my hopes of escaping him would come to an end. Earlier, I stayed with him because he had Dimitri with him. I wanted to know the truth, and now that I know it, even a second with him feels like a prison sentence. How could I breathe in the same room as the man who destroyed my family without a shred of remorse? I inhaled deeply. I really need to stay away from him. My fists clenched and unclenched as I swallowed hard, trying to ease the pain in my heart. He is a murderer, a cruel monster from whom I should keep my distance. And e

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    49. Husband aka monster

    Nikolai's POV Three days. Seventy-two excruciating hours. My fists curled tightly. My Dolcezza has been away from me for the last three days. These three days felt like three decades. I wasn't this restless when I was away from her for three years. Maybe because at that time I knew she was with her father, safe and secure, beyond my reach but not in danger. Now, I don't even know where she is. "Fuck!" The curse slipped from my mouth. A metallic taste of blood touched my tongue as I bit my lower lip tightly when the sharp edge of the whip dug into my skin, deeper this time. My whole body was drenched with sweat; my back was dripping with hot, thick blood. But I care less. Because this was my punishment for letting her go, for being foolish enough to think I could control her fire. My Dolcezza. My stubborn, reckless, impossible Dolcezza. How could I be so careless toward her? Another whip landed on my back, further opening my fresh wounds. The pain spread through my

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    50. Breaking the illusion

    "An- Antonio?" My voice stammered. I clutched the sheets tightly and pressed them against my pounding heart. My breath caught in my throat, and my eyes widened in horror. I couldn't see his face due to the darkness. The man leaned forward and crossed his arms over his chest. “Tsk,” he clicked his tongue. I sucked in a deep, audible breath; my heart was ready to burst from my chest. “Your husband.” My heart dropped, and my blood ran cold. The windowpane clattered, allowing moonlight to penetrate the room, and I finally saw Nikolai's face. He didn't look like the man I knew. He resembled a monster. His eyes were red and baggy, his nose flared angrily, and his jaw tightly clenched. He seemed to be barely controlling himself. The air around me thickened, suffocating me. I couldn't breathe. A shiver ran down my spine as the air became cold and heavy. I prayed it to be just another nightmare. Nikolai stayed in place for a few moments, making me believe he was there

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    59. Pieces of past

    When the car slowed to a stop, I fully expected to find myself in front of a lavish five-star restaurant, the kind that matched Nikolai’s personality: extravagant, cold, and overwhelming. Instead, I found myself standing in the middle of a small and warm restaurant. It was dimly lit, with rustic tables and soft golden lights. Suddenly, the scent of freshly baked bread and rich spices wafted through the air, and I couldn't help but inhale it again and again. It felt so familiar, even though I had come here for the very first time. I swallowed hard and turned my head to Nikolai, only to find him already watching me, his dark eyes filled with something close to fascination. My brows furrowed. Why does he always look at me like that—as if I am the most precious thing in his world—when he has already taken away my happiness, my life? I cleared my throat and tore my gaze away. “Have a seat, my lady,” he said smoothly, pulling out a chair with a soft smile on his lips. I glanced at

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    58. Lost Child

    Alessia's POV It had been over a week since Nikolai had brought me back to this hell. Since then, I have done nothing except sleep. No matter how much I slept, I felt very tired and restless all the time. Every time I spent a night with Nikolai, I regretted it the next morning. No matter how much I swore to resist, I always lost control whenever he was close. I had barely spoken to him since then. I avoided him most of the time. To my surprise, he also gave me the required space instead of forcing his presence like at other times. He was trying to act all soft around me, but I knew his reality. I wasn't going to be lured by his fake care and concern. I knew what a skilled manipulator he was. The soft click of the door opening broke through my thoughts. I immediately shut my eyes, curling deeper into the mattress, pretending to be asleep. A few seconds later, I heard the soft click again, which meant he had closed the door. He stayed there for a moment before I heard the

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    57. Justice served

    Nikolai's POV"This is so unfair. You promised that island to me!" Antonio shouted, his voice hoarse from hours of suffering. He was tied to the chair, exactly where and how I wanted him, beaten black and blue by my men. His arrogant posture now slumped against the chair. The blood dripping from his temple soaked into his white shirt, painting it red. He was always under the illusion that he could outsmart me. Even in the past, he betrayed me by joining hands with Alessia's father. But today, reality had hit him harder than my men’s fists. I leaned against the heavy wooden desk, casually swirling the whiskey in my glass, letting him cry a little more. It was bringing peace to my heart. The air was thick with the smell of iron and blood, something I am used to. I wanted Alessia to witness the consequences of her actions, but I knew she wouldn't be able to stand here. She hasn't been feeling well for the past few days. After that night, she struggled to even walk to the bathro

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    56. Hatefully his

    Third person POV Alessia's whole body shuddered when Nikolai pressed the ice cube directly against her clit. Her body was on fire; she needed release, but Nikolai's actions made it even more challenging for her, while he was thoroughly enjoying her predicament. He wanted to tease her, punish her, and teach her a lesson so she wouldn't repeat the mistake. He understood that she was overwhelmed by emotion and revelation, which caused her to escape, but she didn't realize the blunder she had committed. She was too innocent to understand others' intentions. Antonio could have done anything to her. As a Mafia King, he had many enemies looking for his weakness, and now she had made it obvious. They would surely come after her. She would have to understand that only he was her home, her solace, her only place to turn to. No one knew her body better than he did, and he was taking advantage of exactly that. He slowly and teasingly began rubbing the ice on her clit. Her legs tightened

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    55. For punishment not pleasure

    I can't trust him. He could do anything for his sick pleasure. "I am not as despicable as you think," he mumbled before dropping the belt on the floor. I released the breath I had been holding for so long. But my breath once again caught in my throat when he dropped his pants as well and climbed onto the bed. "Don't move!" he ordered when I tried to crawl away from him. The mattress dipped beneath his weight as he moved closer. He positioned my body between his knees and leaned forward to grab an ice cube. Before I could process what he was trying to do, he pressed the ice cube against my collarbone, sending a shock of cold through my body. But what surprised me more was the excitement that stirred beneath the fear. Goosebumps rose all over my skin as I struggled to understand my own body. Everything he does to me feels like it has happened in the past, and I don't remember a single thing! My breath hitched when he began moving the ice cube from my collarbone up my t

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    54. What is he planning?

    The air suddenly became thick. My legs felt too heavy to move, especially after listening to his obscene demand. "On the bed, Alessia," he commanded. "Now!" My fingers curled to my sides as my heart hammered wildly in my chest. My legs remained unmoved as if chained by invisible ropes. His eyes were too dark and intense. "And don't forget to remove your clothes." I didn't move from my place. I couldn't. My chest rose and fell in anticipation. I knew he was waiting for me to follow his command, but I couldn't. He inhaled deeply, took another step back, and pinched the bridge of his nose. The veins in his forearm strained, indicating the effort it took to hold back. "Don't test my patience, Alessia!" he snapped. "Don't make me do it!" I shivered. My knees buckled. His ruthless eyes bored into me. "You know if I come to myself, it won't end well for you," he growled through clenched teeth. "I'm still trying to be lenient with you. Don't make it more difficult than it al

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    53. Strip and Spread

    I know he would not let me go this easily for what I have done, but I didn't expect him to be this bold. Removing his hand from my thigh, I shifted back into my seat. He didn't try to make contact, either. He placed his elbows on his thighs, leaned forward, and kept his eyes on the road as if each meter felt like a mile to him. Meanwhile, I was still struggling to breathe. I was trying to tell my heart that he couldn't hurt me physically. To be honest, it's not the fear of him killing me that haunts me—it's the fear of my body betraying me, surrendering once again to his rhythm. I hate that, despite everything, I still feel safe with him. I hate that even after he shattered my entire world, a part of me still longs for his presence. I hate that someone who tore my heart to pieces can still feel so painfully familiar and so close. The rest of the journey went silent, and I knew very well that it was the silence before the storm. I didn't dare look at him, but I could feel his ga

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    52. Trapped once again

    Alessia's POV "He has happily handed you over to me for a piece of land." The color drained from my face when I heard Nikolai. Though I didn't trust Antonio much, my heart broke. Every damn person I have met in my life has always betrayed me. It feels as if the ground has shifted beneath my feet. My knees buckled; I was about to fall, but before I could lose my balance, Nikolai's arms wrapped around my waist, pulling me closer to his chest. "You have no idea what I had to let go of to have you back in my arms." I blinked as a gasp escaped my throat. The intensity of his possessive grip burned into my skin, reminding me of where I belonged. Why? Why does it have to be me every damn time? Why? "There is no one else in this world who can protect you the way I can," Nikolai added. "I would burn the world before I let anyone else take you away from me." He leaned down and dipped his head into the crook of my neck. He inhaled deeply as if I were a drug keeping him sane.

  • Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession    51. The deal

    Nikolai's POV The people around me watched in surprise as I walked through the corridors of Antonio's company. I was moving like a man possessed. I was actually furious; I just needed my Dolcezza back in my arms. How could he even think that he could take her away from me and that I would stay silent? The guards eyed me warily, but a sharp glance from me had them stepping aside. They knew who I was and knew better than to test my patience today. One of his men tried to stop me, but I just pushed him away. Without any formality, I opened the doors to his private cabin without hesitation. He was seated behind his mahogany desk, working on his laptop, doing something. He was holding a glass of whisky in one hand. His head snapped up as soon as he heard the loud bang of the door. At first, he was taken aback, but then a slow, dark, and satisfying smirk stretched across his lips. The bastard had been expecting me. "What a great surprise, Capo," he drawled, swirling the ambe
