Lyla, however, wasn’t in the same lighthearted mood. A wave of indignation surged through her once again, and this time, it reached its peak. Without thinking, she stormed forward and shoved Carlo hard in the chest. “What’s so funny?” she shouted, her voice a mix of anger and hurt. “Do you think we’re monkeys in a zoo, fighting each other for the scraps you toss at us? What’s there to be proud of? You’re nothing more than a heartless bastard who doesn’t even understand basic respect! Do you really think you’re any better than these women?”Her hand swept over to gesture at the lavishly dressed women around them, her pent-up frustration from the past month spilling out all at once. She was so worked up that her neatly styled hair became disheveled, with a few strands falling across her flushed face, oddly enhancing her striking beauty.Carlo’s attention was fixed on her. He raised an eyebrow, mesmerized, and without thinking, reached out to brush her hair aside. But before he could, sh
My Mafia Dominant Is Back 72. The Confession
Lyla's body was rigid, her mind completely blank. She barely registered that Carlo was carrying her through the darkened deck, into an elevator, and all the way to the top floor.At the far end of the top floor was a luxury suite—different from the one he had been in with Sienna. Carlo headed straight for the bedroom and gently laid her down on the bed.The mattress was so soft that Lyla immediately sank into it, like falling into a gentle trap. The sudden feeling of weightlessness snapped her back to reality. Instinctively, she shrank into a corner of the bed, her wide eyes locked onto Carlo, filled with fear and confusion. She struggled to keep her emotions in check, her voice trembling as she asked, "Did you... did you just kill Sienna?"Carlo didn’t respond right away. Instead, he walked over to a nearby table, picked up a stack of newspaper clippings, and tossed them onto the bed.With shaking hands, Lyla picked up the clippings and began to read. Each one was an obituary of a Eu
My Mafia Dominant Is Back 73. "Because I'm Your Woman"
Carlo held onto the hand Lyla had wrapped around his waist and continued, "My father's legal wife is also from a Mafia family, and she has a son, Blake Ferretti, the rightful heir to the family. To him, my existence is the greatest threat.""And so you and your mother..." Lyla's heart ached for him. She wanted to say, "It must have been difficult," but the words caught in her throat. Instead, she tightened her embrace around Carlo."That night, I didn’t mean to disappear without a word." Carlo's voice softened. "Hudson texted me about my father being shot and hospitalized. Blake, however, got the news before I did and sent hitmen to ambush me. As soon as I got home, my sports car was set on fire by his men."Lyla gasped, covering her mouth in shock. So Carlo hadn’t lied when she asked about that car back in the laundry room.Suddenly, everything clicked into place.Her father, gravely injured. His half-brother, Blake, determined to claim the family fortune and power, sent assassins aft
My Mafia Dominant Is Back 74. The Island To Exile
The cruise sailed along its course for four days until, at last, it docked at a small island under a clear sunset sky.During those days, Lyla and Carlo rarely left their cabin. Lost in the joy of their confessions, they spent each day wrapped up in one another, as if time and space had become meaningless.When they finally, reluctantly, separated and prepared to disembark, Lyla noticed the eerie quiet around them. The usual bustle on the cruise had vanished. Apart from the stern-faced guards standing nearby, there was no one else in sight. The stillness unsettled her, making it feel like the lively days on board had all been a dream.She paused, instinctively stopping in her tracks as she followed Carlo. “Where are all those women?” she asked quietly.Carlo turned, noticing her anxious expression, and, with a playful seriousness, replied, “Fed to the sharks.”“Really?!” She gasped, covering her mouth. For a moment, she seemed to believe him, running to the railing and looking around
My Mafia Dominant Is Back 75. The Fight About Marriage
"You don’t know anything," he retorted coldly. "My father married his wife purely for family alliances, for the sake of business. He met my mother long before that marriage; theirs was real love. As for his wife, there were no feelings between them—just a union of convenience."Lyla frowned. She’d heard of marriages like this before, from royal families in history to modern corporate empires. But she believed that in today's world, with all the freedoms people now have, marriage should be a choice—not something imposed by family obligations.“This isn’t fair!” Lyla’s voice was firm, frustration etched in her tone. “It’s unfair to your mother, and it’s equally unfair to Mrs. Ferretti! Your father used his wife and controlled your mother, all while basking in the benefits from his marriage and taking your mother’s love without giving her dignity in return. Both women were wronged, and yet he still takes pride in it. He should be ashamed of himself!”"What did you say?" Carlo’s interrupti
My Mafia Dominant Is Back 76. Carlo's Scouts
Lyla hurried back to the cruise, her thoughts tangled, unsure of what to do next. She wanted to find a quiet place, somewhere to calm her mind and sort out her complicated relationship with Carlo.Returning to their shared room was out of the question, and without a room key, she couldn’t access any other cabins either. With no other options, she began to pace along the deck, trying to steady her thoughts.Just then, her attention was drawn to the activity below the ship. A line of bodyguards and crew members were steadily disembarking, each holding a crate filled with supplies. Among them, Lyla recognized Emma and immediately called out to her. Emma turned, surprised, and, seeing Lyla, smiled warmly and hurried over after passing her load to another crew member.“Ms. Sinclair! What are you doing here?” Emma asked, breathless, her cheeks flushed with both exertion and excitement. “I thought you’d already gone ashore with Mr. Carlo.”Lyla shifted uncomfortably. “It’s… a bit complicated
My Mafia Dominant Is Back 77. An Argument Over the Bottom Line
Lyla sighed, knowing that these children were just another one of Carlo’s little schemes to bring her to him. He knew exactly how to push her buttons, leaving her with no choice but to nod helplessly and say, “Alright, lead the way.”The children cheered as if they’d just achieved something monumental, but their sudden burst of noise startled the youngest girl among them, who looked around with wide eyes and started to cry. Lyla’s heart softened immediately. She gently moved through the crowd of kids, knelt down, and picked up the little girl, patting her back and whispering soothing words. “It’s okay, sweetheart. You are fine.” she cooed, shielding her face with one hand and playing a little game of peek-a-boo to distract her.Having worked part-time as a babysitter during college, Lyla had become adept at comforting small children, and sure enough, her silly faces and gentle voice soon coaxed a smile out of the girl. The child wrapped her chubby arms around Lyla’s neck, giggling thr
My Mafia Dominant Is Back 78. Carlo's Promises
"When I wanted to tell you yesterday, I just couldn’t,” Carlo began in a low, slightly raspy voice. “I’m not indifferent to my mother’s pain, you know. Quite the opposite—I’ve tried to find a way to get her out of here since I was very young. When I was six, my father sent for me to start school in the city. I poured everything into becoming the best at whatever I did. I thought that if I earned my father’s approval, he might finally bring my mother to live with us. I just wanted the three of us to be a real family.”“And did it work?” Lyla asked, her tone much softer now, no longer so accusatory.Carlo gave a bitter smile. “You can probably guess that my father’s wife and my half-brother didn’t welcome us. When I was sixteen, I killed two family traitors myself, and only then did my father finally agree to bring my mother into the U.S.”Lyla couldn’t hide her shock; she turned to Carlo, who continued to look out over the ocean, his face calm, as though he were retelling someone else’s
