Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession 68. A sinful temptation
The air in the bathroom suddenly became suffocating as he whispered those words in my ear. I wanted to push him away, but I couldn't because my arms were already wrapped around my body. Exposing myself to his hungry eyes was like adding fuel to the fire. One of his hands moved up my spine, igniting a trail of shivers. I clenched my fists tighter, keeping myself firm. I couldn't melt in his arms. Now, I am not alone; a life is growing inside me that is completely dependent on me. I can't risk its life for a few moments of pleasure. "I told you to leave," I whispered, though my voice lacked its usual bite. Nikolai chuckled in response. "But your trembling body against me conveys something different." I clenched my jaw tightly and tried to hold myself together when his fingertips trailed up my arm in a slow and torturous manner. "It's you who is playing with it," I breathed out. "Stay away from me, Nikolai! This isn't right," I stated. His grip on my waist tightened as his eyes

My heart shot to my throat the moment I felt him position himself behind me. His hand stroked himself slowly, as if preparing to claim what he believed was already his. My eyes widened, and every nerve in my body lit up with urgency. I panicked. I needed to do something to stop him before it went too far. I didn’t want to regret this for life. An idea came to my mind, and I acted before I could even second-guess myself. I was not sure if it would work, but I knew I needed to stop Nikolai, right here and now. I took a shaky breath, and just as he was about to push forward, I immediately removed my hands from the wall and stood straight, just in time. "What?" he barked, clearly irritated. His voice was rough with frustration and hunger. He was just about to have what he wanted, but it slipped away from his fingers a second before. I immediately turned around to face him. His eyebrows were knitted together, his jaw was tight, and his damp hair stuck to his forehead. He looked

The night air was cold and filled with energy as we drove toward our destination. Nikolai was sitting beside me, glancing at me every now and then. Each time our gazes met, he said nothing, just that quiet intensity, as if he were trying to figure out what was going on in my head. I didn’t want to be here. I didn't want to attend any event or function with him, but I wasn't left with any other option. If I wanted Nikolai to listen to me, then of course I would have to listen to him, no matter what. That was the unspoken deal, no matter how much I hated it. So here I was, sitting inside the car, all dolled up for the grand masked ball event. The car pulled up in front of the grand marble steps of the Belladonna Estate. Nikolai handed me my mask, and I put it on. My heart thudded in my chest as the chauffeur opened the door, and I stepped out into the night. The cold breeze caressed my exposed shoulders. Classical music could be heard even from the outside. My gown hugged me like

Marco! No, this time I am not delusional. I can confirm that it was my brother. Same eyes, same personality, same cologne. He is here to meet me, disguised as a bartender. He is alive. My brother is alive. My hands shook violently. I swallowed and tried my best to keep my expression normal. Without thinking twice, I immediately stood up. Everyone looked up at me because clearly, it was against the ethics, but right now, nothing mattered to me. Trying to appear normal, I scanned the surroundings, looking for the rooms. Just when I took one step, Nikolai came in front of me. "Alessia, where are you going?" he asked, concern etching his face. I breathed and swallowed, trying to seem normal. "I urgently need to use the washroom," I lied. His eyes flicked down to my body for a second, as they always did when he suspected me. "Nikolai, I seriously need to use the washroom," I stated in a stern voice, "now!" He tilted his head. "It's to the right," he told me. To

"Alessia?" Nikolai's voice came from behind. My soul almost left my body. My grip on the phone tightened. The first thought that shot through my mind was of Marco. My eyes flew open in horror. My cheeks turned red as I looked around, but to my relief, he wasn't here. Thank God. "Alessia!" Nikolai stepped onto the balcony. His forehead furrowed as he took in the sight of me, tense, breathless, and clearly rattled, standing there alone. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. I shouldn't have looked around in front of Nikolai. He notices the smallest things. He suspected something was wrong. Without saying another word, he turned on his heel and stalked into the room, checking the bathroom, the corners of the balcony, and even under the bed. My stomach churned. I swallowed hard. Please don’t come back, Marco. Please stay hidden. I had no idea where he had disappeared to, but I was grateful he had the sense to vanish before Nikolai showed up. While he was inside, I quickly shoved

The silence in the mansion was almost deadly. Nikolai is very busy these days. He barely has time for anything else. As mentioned by Marco, he is actually doing something big in which he is putting his heart and soul. I haven't put the speaker in his study yet, nor have I contacted Marco. But each passing day is becoming difficult for me. I really want to be free from this home so I can start a new life with my baby, and for that, I know I have to do as Marco has said. Nikolai has invited a few clients to the house. They will have a private meeting in his study, a place that is the most secure, according to him. I need to plant the speaker today itself, or else it will be of no use. I changed hands when my right palm became too sweaty for holding the tiny recorder for long. I let out a deep breath. Nikolai hasn't left his study, which won't allow me to execute my plan. But now I have to do it no matter what. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to destroy Nikolai, but I knew I had to try

My heart skipped a beat when a soft clicking sound reached my ears. My forehead frowned, and a soft yawn passed my lips. My eyelids felt too heavy to open. I rubbed my eyes and blinked multiple times to clear my vision. The first thing I saw was a blurry image of a man. I didn't need to think twice about who it was. It was Nikolai. He was back. A soft yawn once again passed as I sat up and rubbed my eyes once more. I blinked and looked at Nikolai, whose back was now facing me. He looked too tired and frustrated to be bothered by my presence or the silence in the room. His movements were sharp and silent as he slipped off his watch and tossed it carelessly onto the table. His shoulders were tense—too tense. And he didn’t even glance at me. Something was off. But my mind was still foggy, as I had been in a very deep sleep earlier. My head was spinning. Without giving me a single look, he walked straight to the bathroom. I let out a long breath and reached for a glass of water

Today, Nikolai left early. Last night, he slept holding me close to him. Since I had slept a lot in the afternoon, it was hard for me to fall asleep again. I kept thinking about my decision. To get revenge for everything he has done to me and my family, I had to do this, but I am unable to cope with the guilt that is eating me from the inside. I sighed and placed the book aside. The rain had started tapping against the glass window. Nikolai hasn't returned yet. He asked me not to wait for him as he could be late. Suddenly, I remembered the phone. Marco told me that he would try to contact me through that phone. I hadn't even checked it. With Nikolai not being around and no hope of him returning early, I believed this was the right time to contact Marco or at least check the phone to see if he had left a message or anything. Stepping down from the bed, the first thing I did was check the lock on the door; I didn't want to get caught. Although Nikolai could unlock it easily, it wo

Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession 95. You forgot me
My fingers dug into my lap, and I sat frozen in my place as I waited for him to speak. I had been waiting to hear the truth for so long."Yes, this is the truth: because of me, we lost the child." My breath hitched. "But I wasn't directly responsible for it." My eyebrows drew in confusion. Nikolai leaned forward, resting his elbows on the edge of the table. His hands were clasped loosely in front of him. "You may not remember it, but I know your heart has realized how deeply we were in love with each other once." "We were living a happy life together. We created our small little world without caring about others. And then..." He smiled. "We got the greatest news of our lives: that you were pregnant." I blinked, and a gasp escaped my throat as I tried to think about it. My head spun, and frustration grew when I couldn't remember anything. "But our happiness caught an evil eye. The doctor said that you weren't fit to carry a child." I swallowed hard. "But you still wan
Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession 94. Face to Face
He didn't look as youthful and lively as before. His hair was messy, and his beard had grown out; it was heavy and untrimmed. His eyes looked hollow, with dark bags underneath, as if he hadn't slept for nights. His shoulders were hunched, and his body didn’t carry that aura. His eyes softened slightly when he was sure that I was actually standing in front of him. He looked at me as if I were the first light after a long night. Slowly, he stood up, and my feet subconsciously took me to him. For a moment, neither of us spoke. The world around us blurred as we kept looking at each other like we hadn’t seen each other in lifetimes. Then, his lips slowly curved into a faint smile.“I knew you would come,” his voice was low and raspy, missing that roar and firmness. I said nothing because I didn’t know what to say. A part of me wanted to scream, wanted to ask him why he was still doing this—why he was still making it harder for me to hate him. Another part of me just wanted to fall
Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession 93. Listening to the heart
"Where are you going?" My feet came to a halt when I heard Marco's voice. I turned around to face him. I couldn't forget the way he had shouted at me in the study. He is my elder brother. I have always respected him, but that doesn’t mean he can shout at me. I don’t give this right to anyone. "I don’t believe I’m obligated to answer every question you throw at me, Marco. I’m not accountable to you.” I folded my arms across my chest and looked directly into his eyes. His jaw clenched and fists tightened. It was quite clear he didn’t like what I said, but still he kept his voice neutral, not allowing his feelings to reflect through his tone. "I understand that you are an adult with your own rights, but you are living under my protection and..." “Under my father's protection,” I corrected sharply, cutting him off. His eyes darkened, and his head tilted just slightly to the side—an old habit of his whenever he didn’t like what the other person had just said. It was subtl
Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession 92. Meet me
My heart stopped for a moment as I listened to that deep, rough voice that somehow managed to make space in my heart. It still made something inside me stir. I wanted to end the call, to prove that he no longer controls me, but the way he said "please" made it impossible for me to do so. My grip on the phone tightened as not a single word came out of my mouth. Silence spread between us. I could hear his ragged breathing and feel his nervousness through the phone. Then, I heard the rustle of wind on the other end, as if he were outside. "How did he get my number?" The question popped into my mind. I mentally slapped myself for being so stupid. How could I forget that he has many sources? "I didn't think you'd pick up," he said softly, breaking the silence. Suddenly, I felt a rush of emotions and was about to end the call when he spoke again. "I won't take much of your time, Alessia." I swallowed hard. "One minute—just say whatever you want," I stated in a cold and flat tone, t

“Sign them over to me.” For a moment, I thought my ears were ringing, that I had heard something wrong. First, I can't believe Nikolai has transferred his property into my name without telling me, and now Marco wants me to sign it over to him. Why? I realized my hands were trembling when I felt a large, rough hand cover my palm. It was my father's. He looked at me and nodded reassuringly. He already knew about it, and he also wanted the same from me. How could I not know about my own life and the things happening to me? They gave me a few minutes of silence to understand the entire situation. Then Marco spoke again, "Alessia, I know you are pregnant, and we shouldn't give you too much stress, but this can't wait any longer." He sighed. His tone was very soft, as if he were speaking to a child. "Alessia, before taking you away from us, Nikolai snatched the throne of Mafia king from Dad. It is only because of him that our mother is not with us." Marco's gaze flicke

I sighed and went to the bathroom to take a shower. It took me exactly half an hour to get ready. As I went downstairs, I found Marco and Dad already at the breakfast table, waiting for me. “Good morning, princess,” Marco greeted me warmly as he walked up to me and pulled me into a tight hug. “Good morning,” I smiled, wrapping my arms around him briefly before we parted. We then settled at the table to have our first meal of the day. As always, all the dishes were my favorites. Ever since I returned, my family has been going out of their way to take care of me—and the baby. Every little thing is done to make me feel safe and loved, and I appreciate it… even if, deep down, I still feel hollow. I am also trying to have all my meals despite how I am feeling inside.I visited the doctor two days ago. The report she gave wasn’t reassuring. The baby… it’s weak. Too weak. I need to reduce my stress levels and ensure I take all my vitamins and meals on time if I want to keep them safe. Th

Suddenly, I heard a loud gunshot that shook me in my place. My heart pounded fast as the loud voice echoed from inside the mansion. I felt my heart come to my throat as I looked around. I couldn't stop myself from opening the door and stepping out of the car. The sound of another gunshot, followed by glass shattering, made me run inside the mansion. Because of my slippery feet, I almost slipped but managed to compose myself just in time. My surroundings blurred and turned dark as I ran toward the room where I had left Nikolai alone. The door was slightly ajar, so I pushed it open to find Nikolai with a gun in his hand, pressed against his stomach, his back facing me. "Nikolai!" I shouted. Slowly, he turned around. His eyes were filled with pain, such a deep pain that it tore my soul apart. Tears streamed down his cheeks, his eyes were bloodshot red, and his lower lip quivered. His shoulders slumped, and his face looked pale, almost lifeless. "Why are you here, Alessia?" he as
Mafia's Rebellious Bride: His Forbidden Obsession 88. Good bye
His body jolted slightly as the words left my mouth. It felt as if someone had struck him physically. "What?" He was completely surprised. His forehead wrinkled as his eyes flicked again between me and the divorce papers. "You are kidding me, right?" he asked in disbelief. "I am not kidding you, Nikolai. These are actually divorce papers. I asked Marco for help. He did and delivered them on time." I breathed; my chest felt heavy, "and let me tell you, Nikolai, it's my decision. No one has forced me into this. This is just to clear your misunderstanding." He licked his lips. His head cocked slightly as if he still couldn't believe his ears. For the moment, I shut off all the feelings of my heart. I was only listening to my brain. Slowly, he reached out for the papers in my hand. His fingers trembled slightly as he grabbed them. Silence spread between us as he slowly opened the file. His fingers trembled as they turned the first page. His eyes scanned the bold letters: P

The gun in my hands shook uncontrollably as he asked me to kill him. My eyes flicked between the gun and Nikolai, who was still on his knees. "What are you thinking about, Alessia? Go ahead," he whispered. "Just kill me," he choked out. His eyes were locked with mine. "I swear, I will not stop you. I will not even blink." He gasped, trying his best not to let the tears slip down his face. My throat constricted as I fought with my emotions.I couldn't move, blink, or speak. "This pain..." His voice cracked. His hand rose and pointed to his chest. "This pain of betrayal, YOUR BETRAYAL, it's becoming too much for me to bear." As if it were his breaking point, one hot, thick tear dribbled down his face and rolled down his cheek. The tear of pain. The tear I wanted to see in his eyes. The pain I wanted him to feel. But now that he was exactly in the state I wanted him, why was it hurting me so badly? Why does my chest ache like someone is tearing me apart from the inside?Why d
