THE MAFIA KING’S ADDICTION CHAPTER EIGHT
VALENTINA’S POV I didn't like how Ricardo suddenly left my room after giving me the pasta which he dished out for me by himself. I wondered what was so important that made him dash out of my room when we were in the middle of a serious discussion. Then I gasped when realization dawned on me. Could it be that my uncle had come to take me home? I literally jumped out of bed in happiness and walked to the door of my room. In movies and books which I read in the past about Mafia gangs. When a person was kidnapped, they were always locked in a room. I became discouraged when I thought about that but then again, those were just books and movies. So I decided to try my luck and turned the doorknob in a bid to open the door. My eyes widened when I heard the shrieking sound the door made and I slowly opened the door. For him to have forgotten to lock the door means he must have really been in a hurry. I peeped outside to be sure none of his men were in sight. When I saw no one in the hall

VALENTINA’S POV When I looked out the window and saw Ricardo talking to someone on the phone. Suddenly he turned to look at my window and that was when our eyes met. But it didn’t last long because several bullets began flying in the air. Ricardo ran to hide behind a wall using it to hide from being shot and began to shoot back. Thank Goodness that the window in the room I was kept in was bulletproof because some bullet hit it but the glass didn't break. I checked to see where the bullets were coming from only to see that it was Diego and his men. There was a fierce shoot-out between Diego and Ricardo’s men. But what got me worried was it looked like Diego was getting the upper hand because it looked like a surprise attack. I stood and watched everything through my window as men on the opposite side of the gang got gunned down. It was like I was watching an action movie. Never in my life had I ever imagined that I would witness such a scene. What made me more worried was when I

VALENTINA’S POV When the guy and two men came to carry Ricardo up, Ricardo began gasping for air. As if that wasn’t enough we heard noises coming from the side of the house. I was too focused on helping the wounded to pay attention to what was the cause of the noise. So I rushed inside the house with the men who helped carry Ricardo’s body inside. Ricardo was still gasping for breath and I was worried that he might go into a coma or he might even die. So I told them to place him on the table in his sitting room. His men laid him on the table and I rushed to his side. “Calm down Ric, you’re not gonna die today. Not while I’m here. Just try to take calm breaths okay?“ I said to him and he nodded his head frantically as he tried to take calm breaths. “I am Angelo. Thank you for what you did out there. Please let me know whatever you need right now to stabilize him,“ The guy who came to pick Ricardo up from my house said to me with a look of gratitude on his face. So that was his nam

VALENTINA’S POV“ Please can I ask you for a favor? “ Angelo asked me suddenly after he tilted his head and thought for a while. I wondered what favor he wanted to ask of me. “ Sure. If it's within my power I'll help, “ I found myself saying to Angelo. I didn't know why I couldn't say no to him.“ Can Mrs D’Arezzo stay here with you while I go get things back in order at the estate? I'll leave some of the men here to stand guard and don't worry they won't be caught unawares ever again, “ Angelo said to me.“ First I need to know her condition before I can let you leave her here with me. I need to know what I'll be dealing with, “ I said to Angelo. This was the perfect opportunity for me to know what happened to the beautiful woman and there was no way I was gonna miss the opportunity now that it had presented itself.“ I can't go into details because it's my story to tell. But all I can tell is that she has never said a word ever since her husband's demise, and she began to show sign

VALENTINA’S POVWhen I turned and saw that Ric’s mom was the one who just spoke, I was dumbfounded and tongue-tied. I just continued staring at her.“ Would Cardo be okay? “ She asked again with worry evident on her face. That was when I regained my composure.“ Uhmm, yeah, yeah. He’ll be fine, “ I lied to her with a smile and a look of assurance on my face.That was all I could do at that moment. I didn’t want to make her more worried because I didn’t know for sure what was wrong with her yet.I couldn’t possibly just tell her that her son was in a coma and we weren't sure when or if he would wake up. That would devastate the poor woman.“ Alright, “ She said but didn’t look convinced. She went back to how she was before she spoke. Not wanting her to be that way, I decided to check on Ric a little later. For now, I needed to strike up a conversation with his mom at least every day to get her back to her normal self. So I walked over to her and sat down on the chair across from where

I had to help Valentina. That was when my eyes fluttered open only to realize that it was just a dream.I woke up in a room that looked strangely familiar. IV fluids were connected to my veins and the life support machine was beeping steadily.I tried to move my hands for a while but I felt numb. An artificial ventilator was on my nose which I so much wanted to take off. After a series of trials, my hands moved and I removed it.It took all the strength in me for me to sit up on the bed.

RICARDO’S POV My phone began ringing while I was driving back from the secret mental health care hospital my mom was in. I didn't want anyone to know that she was even still alive, so far only Angelo whom I trusted the most among my men in the gang knew and swore to keep it a secret. That was why my men and my escorts didn't follow me. Aside from that, I never went out of my residence alone. It's too risky given that I was the mafia king. I checked the person who might have been calling me and saw that it was Angelo, the guy I trusted the most in my gang. Angelo began working for me when I was newly made the king of all mafia gangs after my father passed away. Hoping he wasn't calling me because of a problem, I picked up the call with one of my hands still on my steering wheel. “ Speak, I'm listening “ I answered the call with my not-so-obvious Italian. Angelo didn't normally call me unless there was a valid reason behind it and I feared there was trouble that why he was calli

VALENTINA’S POV I knelt in front of my parents and elder brother’s graves with tears rolling down my eyes as I reminisced about how life was when they were still alive and we lived happily. We were the Di Maria family living peacefully and minding our business. My brother Taviano Di Maria would always take me to a river on the outskirts of our city telling me that we'd get to see a mermaid because he knew I loved mermaid tales. My Dad was a businessman who was benevolent enough to show my uncle, his younger and only brother Santiago Di Maria his way of business and they both excelled together. When I was 5 years old, we were all going on a holiday when armed men ambushed us on the same bridge my brother Taviano used to take me to, and the armed men began shooting at us. My mum Rosalia Di Maria pushed me into the river to save me before they shot her. Luckily a woman saved me and took me to my Uncle Santiago when she saw the news on TV that they were searching for me. My

THE MAFIA KING’S ADDICTION CHAPTER SEVEN
RICARDO’S POV When Diego came to my estate with his men, without even telling Valentina she refused to go with him. I figured that maybe it was her uncle who was forcing the marriage on her. Sometimes, ladies always had to go through difficult times with this kind of stuff, and situations like this always made me glad that I wasn't a woman. I knew Diego’s gang was no match for mine. The only reason I was shot on my shoulders again was because I was distracted. That was when I saw Rosalia trying to strangle Valentina. Even though I was shot I didn’t feel pain as much as I should have at that moment due to the rage within me. Because as far as I was concerned, I didn’t give Rosalia the order to do what she was doing. Since I was born I had the principle of never hitting a woman but I punched Rosalia out of anger. Sadly I got to where they were, Valentina had already passed. “You better pray to whatever God you serve that she isn’t dead because if she's dead, then consider yourself
THE MAFIA KING’S ADDICTION CHAPTER SIX
VALENTINA POV When I looked to see who it was while I struggled to set myself free, I wouldn't say I was surprised to see that it was the lady with a lot of piercings who was trying to strangle me. As far as I was concerned I couldn't trust anyone in this gang that kidnapped me. So It didn't come as a surprise to me to see the lady looking at me with hatred written all over her face as she tried to strangle me. I tried to shove her away from me but she was stronger than me. I began to gasp for breath as her grip on my neck became tighter, and my sight began to get blurry. I guess this was the way I was supposed to die, I stopped struggling with the lady whom I didn’t even know her name yet. I gave up and just let her choke me. Before I finally embraced Abyss, I saw Ricardo running towards me with blood stains on his shirt and then I blanked out. ************** My eyes fluttered open but due to the bright light which illuminated the room, I closed them again and waited a few seco
THE MAFIA KING’S ADDICTION CHAPTER FIVE
VALENTINA’S POV I tried to open my eyes but all I could see was darkness, then the last events that happened before I passed out came flooding to my mind and I gasped. Was I dead? I asked myself inwardly and wanted to try to lift my hands but found out that I was restrained. I began to struggle to free myself then I heard a voice. “If you move one more time I'll kill you before we even get to meet the boss, don't test my patience young lady,“ A deep masculine voice said with warning. “Who are you and where are you taking me?“ I asked not minding what the man said. “Shut up,“ The masculine voice said again and tied my mouth while I struggled for him not to, but it was all to no avail because he was stronger than I was. “Drive faster Rocco,“ The masculine voice said, and only then did I realize I was in transit. Where the hell were they taking me to, I thought to myself as fear instantly enveloped me. I decided not to struggle anymore since I knew that they were dangerous and re
