Substitute Wife for the Mafia King The Lives We Chose
At that time, I wasn’t sure if I was ready to show Anthony how things were between my parents and me. It was probably troubling enough for him already that he had to marry me instead of my twin sister. With that in mind, I decided to act like a loving daughter, just like how Diana would have acted.Anthony wordlessly led me to the living room of the mansion. Just like all the other parts of the mansion that I had seen, the living room was luxurious and decorated in tones of navy with a large sparkling chandelier hanging from the high ceiling. My parents were seated on a long sofa where the guests were supposed to be seated. Although their presence seemed to blend in with the surroundings as they stood to the side and corners of the spacious living room, it didn’t take me long for me to realize that there were almost ten men dressed in black suits there with us.A little too many bodyguards if you ask me…but…“Father…Mother…” I said as I sat down on another sofa opposite the one that t

“She’s with the man that she loves and that’s why she’s not coming back,” I replied simply without raising my voice.“The man that she loves…?” my mother mumbled with a look of pure shock on her face.“That is complete nonsense! Diana knows very well that she’s supposed to marry Anthony. There is no way that she would do something like that…” my father yelled quite loudly as his face started turning red from anger.“That’s right. Diana is a very responsible person. You’re lying, aren’t you? Just like always, you’re lying!” My mother threw her accusations at me.My sister was the one who deceived them and eloped with her lover while I’m the one dealing with the mess that she had left behind while also facing our parents to let them know the truth. However, I was the one being called a liar while my sister still managed to maintain her label as a responsible person.“Listen to me properly because I’m going to say this only once. Diana, your precious daughter and my dear twin sister, elo

What is father saying?I couldn’t comprehend all the crazy things that my father was spouting. I stared at Anthony as I wondered why he wasn’t denying anything that my father was saying.“I will make sure that your father finds out about this disgraceful and disrespectful attitude of yours!” he yelled threateningly.“You still haven’t answered my question. I guess it doesn’t matter what you say anyways. Zain…” Anthony said while sounding bored.With a flick of the fingers of his free hand, Anthony waved over a man whose name must have been Zain. I watched as Anthony opened his hand as if waiting to receive something.“Yes, Master…” Zain said softly as he came to stand close to Anthony.With a polite bow of his head, Zain placed a handgun into Anthony’s outstretched hand. It felt like time froze for all of us as we all undoubtedly saw the dangerous object that Anthony now held in his hand.Why is Anthony holding a gun?The expression of shock displayed on my parents’ face must have mir

“Shh…Stop asking so many questions,” he said as he took a few steps to close the distance between us.“Who are you?” I asked again as I tried to keep my voice from shaking.Instead of replying to me, he took another step forward which forced me to back away from him. His icy blue eyes stared deeply into mine as if he could see my bare soul. However, I couldn’t read him or what he was thinking at all. His eyes were just empty and cold.I felt something against the back of my legs and glancing back made me realize that he had backed me up against the sofa. It felt like my legs had lost all strength and I naturally flopped down onto the sofa behind me. My heart clenched hard in my chest as he kept on staring at me with a face that looked exactly the same as Anthony’s.What is going on? Who is he? What is going to happen to me?The man leaned down and trapped me in between his arms and the sofa as he brought his face down close to mine at my level. The intense way that he was staring at m
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Paying the Price
I moaned into our kiss as my head started to feel light. I closed my eyes to focus more on our heated kiss and the only thought that remained in my mind was that of the man in front of me. If I understood things correctly, then the man who was hungrily kissing me as if he was on the verge of devouring me was in fact Antony’s older brother.Honestly, I don’t even remember his name because no one who knew of him really wanted to talk of him. Just like all the things that he is rumored to do and have done; his existence was taboo. Talking about him, referring to him, and also acknowledging his existence was forbidden as if a silent agreement had been signed by the few who knew to forget his existence. The only time that my father brought him up was to warn us of his existence a few years after my sister and Anthony got engaged in an agreement between our two families.“Anthony has an older brother. Actually, he’s not supposed to exist, and we will treat it as such according to his family
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Sweetest Punishment
“Did you get this wet from a kiss, Leya?” he asked before letting out an amused chuckle.“Don’t call me that!” I yelled as I felt tears stinging the back of my eyes.I glared with narrowed eyes at him as my anger started boiling over. Since learning that he wasn’t Anthony, I could no longer bear to hear him call me by my nickname. It was Anthony who came up with this nickname for me when we were kids, and it was probably the only thing that reminded me of the connection that we used to share. Having this man use that name so carelessly felt like he was soiling the precious memories that I shared with Anthony that I treasured so dearly.He seemed a little startled and his fingers stopped momentarily before they slipped beneath the thin fabric of my panties and began stroking up and down the length of my wet opening. I wanted to drown in my own embarrassment when I let out a moan as his fingers continued to caress the wet hot mess in between my legs mercilessly. The faster his fingers m
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Married Life
His name felt so strange on my lips and that was probably because I had never spoken it out loud before in my life because there was no need to, and I was actually forbidden from saying it. It felt alien to me and the fact that I happened to remember his name while I reached my climax also felt unbelievable. I felt his presence retreating from me and by the time that my mind was clear enough for me to open my eyes and focus, Bradon was already heading for the door. Although I could see that he was leaving, I couldn’t find it in me to call him back because there was no need to.What would I say to him even if I called him back?Recalling his name meant nothing to me because I still knew nothing about this phantom of a man that was supposed to be Anthony’s hidden elder brother. I let out a long sigh as I felt my juices leaking out of my love entrance. My pussy still felt sore from the night before but that wasn’t what occupied my mind. It felt quite relieving to finally be able to put a
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King The Missing Key
“I said, what is Bradon like? You know, as a person, what do you think of him?” I repeated my inquiry again.“Umm…I’m very sorry but I cannot make any comments,” she replied in a soft mumble.“Is that also one of the rules in this place? You can’t say anything about Bradon?” I took a wild guess while thinking that my wild guess might not be too far from the truth.Bella just looked uncomfortable again and I immediately regretted my question. I should have known that I would be stretching my luck too much if I thought that a maid could give me a complete download of what kind of man Bradon is. It was my fault for thinking that she would know anything about him because she worked in his mansion. While going along with the tour, I thought of many things as I listened to Bella talking. No matter which paths my thoughts took, it always seemed to end up at the same destination and running into the same hard solid wall.I let out a sigh while rolling my eyes upward when I was forced to reali

Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Unstoppable
Just thinking that the fool right in front of me dared to say he was in love with my sister, while he couldn't even tell the two of us apart, made my blood boil. It took a lot of effort to repress the urge to reach out and strangle his neck right then and there. I reminded myself that I had a part to play and quite an audience to impress."No... this can't be..." Mr. Malton whispered hoarsely from a distance, stepping even further away from me. I stood up from the table, grabbed his arm, and pulled him back to my side as I glared up into his face."It's actually quite simple to fool you. All I had to do was dress up in my sister's clothes whenever I met you and talk a little more sweetly..." I said, letting out a hysterical laugh. I could still feel everyone's eyes on us as the attention in the room escalated even more than before.Mr. Malton was speechless as he tried to pull his arm away from my grip, but I wasn't about to let him get away so easily."Well, now I guess the secret is
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King The Truth We Chose
I had no idea how Diana managed to keep the girls silent up until that point so that the news wouldn't spread; however, I knew that it wouldn't be too long before everyone in school knew about this illicit affair. We would be extremely lucky if this news did not spread beyond the school walls. Despite the gravity of the situation, Mr. Malton was already ready to make his retreat."What if they don't believe us? I feel so scared. I don't want to be alone, and I don't want you to leave me," I said pleadingly just to see his reaction."You know that I would never do that. It would just be temporary until everything blows over. I promise that I will never leave you. How could I possibly leave you? I love you so much," he declared his love for me boldly.The more dramatic things became, the more I felt that his act of adoration was completely fake. No matter how many times he claimed to be in love with my sister, it seemed like he couldn't even tell us apart. I wondered what kind of face h
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Irresponsible Lover
"Leya, you need to help me find a way out of this. Diana simply cannot make this kind of mistake," my sister told me slowly and clearly as she stared directly into my eyes."You're right. You can't afford to make these kinds of mistakes," I agreed solemnly."No one else must find out about this. We have to do something before word gets out because word is definitely going to get out,," my sister stated calmly, and I could tell that she had returned to her calm and collected self."Can't we tell them that they simply misunderstood and that it's not true?" I asked, daring to harbor a little bit of hope."They probably won't believe what we tell them, but they might believe what we show them," Diana replied, and I could tell her mind was made up.Without using any more words, it seemed like an understanding had formed between us, and once again, it felt like it was us against the entire world....**The Next Day**As I pushed open the back door to the building that was supposed to be off
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King The Bigger Problem
The moment that thought entered my mind, I quickly killed it and pushed it out of my mind as if extinguishing a small flame before it would spread and engulf everything. I told myself that it wouldn’t have to come to that and that we could find another way to figure things out.“Does it matter? Why does it have to matter?” Diana asked, and her tone was cold.My sister’s response quickly snapped me out of my thoughts and back to reality. I narrowed my eyes at her as my irritation started to take over.“It does matter! Have you completely lost your mind? He’s our teacher,” I reminded her as I started to truly lose my head over what my sister had confessed to me.Had I known that the person she had been dating was one of our teachers, I would have definitely stopped her. That was probably the reason why Diana decided to keep it a secret, even from me. In reality, I had my own doubts about whether or not I could have persuaded my sister not to pursue her taboo relationship with Mr. Malton
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Secret Boyfriend
"I guess he is not someone in this school," I said as I ran my mind through potential candidates who could be my sister's true love."It's a secret," Diana repeated again before pressing her index finger teasingly against her lips."Are you really not going to tell me?" I asked."Honestly, you have no idea just how much I am dying to tell you who he is. But you see, I did promise him to keep it a secret between us... at least for now," Diana said before flashing me a regretful smile."I don't think I will end up liking this guy. He's telling you to keep secrets from me," I replied teasingly."I'll make sure that you're the first one to find out," Diana promised me with a beaming smile."I guess that it's good enough for me that you're happy," I told her honestly."Thank you, Leya. I love you so much. You're probably the only one who truly cares about my happiness," my sister said before pulling me into her embrace.Back then, when I held my sister in my arms and hugged her back tightl
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King An Attempt at Revenge
“Shall we?” Bradon asked as he offered me his arm invitingly.“Thank you,” I replied as I smoothly slipped my arm into his.Appearing in front of the public as Diana, with Bradon as my escort as he flawlessly acted out the role of Anthony, drew quite a lot of attention to us. I could tell that Bradon felt restless, even under his calm and collected exterior, and that was probably because he couldn’t wait for this engagement announcement to come to an end. Even though he should have been reassured now that Diana was taking my place at the ceremony, it seemed that nothing could make Bradon completely feel at ease given the situation.“I sincerely hope that they keep it short,” Bradon whispered right into my ear before planting a soft kiss against my temple.I was sure we looked like the perfect loving couple, and perhaps that wasn’t so far from the truth. For the life of me, I had no idea how Diana managed to convince Desmond to let her take my place at the engagement ceremony, but I wa
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King At My Feet
"So, are you going to get on your hands and knees to beg? How much longer will you keep me waiting?" I asked while pointing my index finger at the empty floor right in front of my feet.If looks could kill, I would have died an extremely painful death, stabbed by the millions of daggers flying out of my father's eyes from the way he was glaring at me. Even when I was clearly his only route of escape from the impending hell that was awaiting him, it was clear that my father felt nothing but hatred for me. I returned his stare with one of my own as I continued pointing to the floor where I wanted them to get on their hands and knees."I'm still waiting. Oh, but if you're not willing, then I'll make sure that some men will escort you out," I said before grinning at them. I could tell that my father was hesitating, and that meant that he was truly considering abandoning whatever pride he had left to get down on his hands and knees to beg for help from his long-abandoned daughter.Time mov
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Time to Beg
“Dahlia, dear! Please help your dear father!” The head of the Alnault family desperately pleaded for my help. I squinted my eyes at his face as I took in the evident panic and helplessness displayed on his features. I wasn't sure what I was hoping for when I wanted to see him, but his reaction surely surpassed even my wildest expectations. Gone were all of his confidence and arrogance. Perhaps, for the first time in his life, this man was feeling truly hopeless and helpless. “Dahlia! You have to help get us out of this. You need to help our family!”my mother's high-pitched voice begged openly for my help.I glanced in her direction. I wasn't at all surprised to feel absolutely no pity for her. The only question that went through my mind was why these two people were still standing on their feet rather than kneeling in front of me on their knees. My biological father continued begging while giving me countless reasons why I should help him out. However, most of his words were lost to
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Early Present
It was true that I had ample opportunities to tell Bradon about it, but it was also true that bringing it up would ruin the romantic and joyful mood between us and whatever we were in the middle of doing. Bradon came home early and in time for dinner every day, as if it was a change in habit. We spent time together just like regular couples—staying at home, watching movies, taking a dip in the pool, walking together in the garden, and doing many other things just to enjoy each other's company. It felt like we were making up for all the lost time.…**Around a week later**Diana's brewing plan kept me on edge. The secret preparation for the royal engagement announcement was in full swing. As for me, I spent a lot of time mentally preparing myself for what was to come. Each peaceful day that went by felt like the perfect calm before a raging storm. One day, I woke up to find Bradon sitting on the side of the bed, his eyes on me as if he was waiting patiently for me to wake up from my sl
