TRAPPED IN MY MAFIA HUSBAND'S FATAL REPLAY Chapter 30
Athena’s POVI stood near the entrance of The Raven’s Nest, the underground club where Kael often conducted business, my fingers tightening around my clutch. Tonight was crucial. This was the moment Kael would confirm that Viktor Petrov was the traitor I claimed him to be.The club was dimly lit, the air thick with the scent of whiskey and cigar smoke. From my position, I could see Kael seated at the VIP lounge, a glass of bourbon in hand, his expression unreadable. Across from him sat Petrov, relaxed, confident—completely unaware that he was walking straight into a trap.Zane stood by Kael’s side, his sharp gaze flickering toward me for the briefest moment before returning to the meeting. He was still suspicious of me, still questioning how I knew things I shouldn’t. But that didn’t matter right now.I inhaled slowly as Kael leaned forward, his voice calm but firm. “I’m expecting a smooth arms shipment next week. You assured me there’d be no interference, da?”Petrov nodded, swirling

Athena’s POVThe scent of cigar smoke and expensive whiskey hung thick in the air, mingling with the murmurs of men who had too much power and even more to lose. The Raven’s Nest wasn’t just any casino—it was Kael’s domain. Every high roller, every dealer, every shadow in this room answered to him.And tonight, I was about to use it to my advantage.I adjusted my silk dress, ensuring the slit revealed just enough to be a distraction but not a weakness. Confidence was my best weapon, and tonight, I needed every edge I could get.Across the velvet poker table sat Senator Dario Fuentes—the corrupt politician with a taste for dirty money and an unfortunate habit of underestimating women. His eyes lingered on my exposed skin before flicking to my face, a smirk tugging at his lips.Perfect.Kael stood a few feet away, arms crossed, watching everything unfold with that unreadable expression of his. Beside him, Zane remained silent, but I could feel his gaze tracking my every movement.Good.

Despite the chaos brewing behind the scenes, I could feel the shift in Kael’s actions—subtle yet undeniable. He was more protective, more present, and it terrified me how easily I was starting to rely on that presence.Zane’s watchful eyes followed my every move. His presence had become a shadow, lingering in the background, assessing, calculating. I knew why Kael assigned him to keep an eye on me—he was still questioning how I knew things I shouldn't. But that didn’t mean I had to make it easy for them.Tonight, The Raven’s Nest was filled with whispers—whispers about me. Arabella and Isabella had finally made their move, and they played dirty. Headlines flooded the media, painting me as a manipulative woman, a gold digger who had seduced Kael for power. Fabricated stories of past affairs, falsified documents claiming I had ties to the Wilder Cartel—it was a full-blown smear campaign, orchestrated to destroy my place by Kael’s side.Kael had been quiet all morning, his expression unr

---I stood in the dimly lit study, my pulse steady despite the storm brewing inside me. Kael leaned against his desk, his sharp gaze locked onto mine."You have a habit of knowing things you shouldn’t, bambina," he murmured, voice edged with suspicion. "Tell me how you knew about Petrov, and now—Vincenzo?"I met his stare head-on, willing my expression to remain unreadable. "You trust the wrong people."His jaw ticked. "And you?" He took a slow step forward, closing the distance between us. "Should I trust you?""That depends," I said smoothly, tilting my head. "Do you want to live?"A ghost of a smirk played on his lips, but there was no amusement in his eyes. "You always do this." His fingers traced the edge of the desk, a controlled gesture that hinted at his restraint. "You drop warnings and expect me to listen, but you never tell me how you know these things."I hesitated. This was dangerous territory.Kael had always been a man who demanded answers, and every time I gave him ju

The underground passage was cold and narrow, the scent of damp earth filling the air. Every step we took was cautious, the distant echo of gunfire still ringing above us. My pulse thrummed in my ears as I kept close to Kael, my fingers tingling from the adrenaline still coursing through my veins.Zane led the way, his gun drawn as he checked each turn before motioning for us to follow. The passage stretched longer than I expected, but I knew we were nearing the exit. Relief settled in my chest, but it was fleeting. We weren’t safe yet.Kael’s hand found the small of my back, guiding me forward with a touch so subtle, yet possessive, that it sent shivers down my spine. He hadn’t said much since we entered the tunnel, but I could feel the weight of his thoughts pressing down on him.Finally, the faint outline of a metal door appeared ahead. Zane tested the handle before giving a sharp nod. “Coast is clear.”Kael exhaled, then turned to me. “Stay close.”I rolled my eyes. “That’s what I’

The hours that followed our return to the estate were unsettlingly quiet. Too quiet.I tossed and turned in bed, my mind refusing to rest despite the exhaustion weighing down on my body. I had spent lifetimes surviving, but tonight, something had shifted. The way Kael looked at me, the way his touch lingered—like he was starting to see past the secrets I refused to share.I pulled the covers over me, trying to shake the feeling, but unease settled in my bones. Something was off.Then—A sharp crack echoed through the estate.Gunfire.My body moved before my mind could catch up. I shot up from the bed, heart pounding as I reached for the dagger I had hidden beneath my pillow. The sound came from outside—close. Too close.Kael.I bolted out of the room, feet barely touching the ground as I sprinted down the hallway. The estate was in chaos. Guards moved in a frenzy, shouting orders, weapons drawn. I shoved past them, my pulse a frantic drum in my ears.The last time this happened—No. I

I felt the warmth of Kael’s lips fade as he pulled away, but his hands remained on either side of my face, his breath uneven. His forehead rested against mine, his grip firm yet uncertain—like he was holding onto something he couldn’t quite understand.I swallowed hard, my heart hammering in my chest. “Kael…”His fingers traced down my jawline, his touch featherlight. “You drive me insane,” he murmured, almost to himself. “I don’t know if I want to strangle you or keep you locked away so no one else can have you.”A wry smile tugged at my lips. “Romantic.”His eyes darkened, but there was no anger—only something far more dangerous. Fascination. Need. Possession.I reached for his wrist, my fingers brushing against the cool metal of his watch. “You kissed me.”Kael tilted his head, studying me like I was a puzzle he couldn’t quite solve. “You kissed me back.”I did. I shouldn’t have, but I did. And now, the air between us felt heavier, as if the weight of unspoken words and buried desi

Austin, you’re a monster! You took everything from me. I loved you! But this is your payback? You’re going to kill me?"The wind howled around us, a chilling force against my trembling body. I stood at the edge of the rooftop, my heart hammering in my chest as Austin towered over me, his once-familiar face now void of any emotion. The man I had loved, the man I had sworn my life to, was nothing more than a cold, calculating monster.He held the gun with steady hands, his gaze sharp, unwavering. Behind him, his men stood like statues—silent, obedient, indifferent to the cruelty unfolding before them.I should have seen it earlier—the way my family's empire crumbled piece by piece, the sudden deaths of my parents and siblings, the way Austin had always been there, pretending to pick up the pieces with me. It had all been a game. A carefully orchestrated plan to leave me vulnerable, alone.And now, I was the last piece to be removed."You were so easy to manipulate," Austin mused, almost

Athena’s POVThe ride back to Kael’s penthouse was silent, the tension between us palpable. My heart was still racing—not from the fight, but from him. From the way he kissed me like I was something he couldn't bear to lose. But now, sitting beside him in the car, he was distant, his jaw tight, his fingers drumming idly against his thigh.I knew what was coming before he even spoke."You're going to tell me how you knew about that ambush." His voice was low, controlled.I turned to look at him, meeting his sharp gaze. "I already told you. I just—""Had a feeling?" His jaw clenched. "You expect me to believe that?"I swallowed hard. "Believe whatever you want, Kael. But if I hadn’t warned you, we’d both be dead right now."His eyes darkened, frustration evident. “That’s not the point.”Zane, who had been silent up until now, let out a low whistle from the driver’s seat. "You two should just get a room already."Kael shot him a glare, but I caught the briefest flicker of amusement in hi

Athena’s POVThe tension between Kael and me had been simmering for days, a dangerous game of push and pull where neither of us was willing to yield. He wanted answers—about my knowledge, my instincts, my seemingly impossible ability to predict the enemy’s moves.But I wasn’t ready to give him those answers.Not yet.And definitely not when we were currently being shot at.The sudden ambush had forced us into an abandoned building, the scent of dust and gunpowder thick in the air. I pressed my back against the cold brick wall, gripping the gun Kael had shoved into my hands.“Stay close,” he commanded, his voice low but firm.I exhaled sharply. “Not exactly planning to take a stroll, amore.”His eyes flickered toward me at the endearment, something unreadable passing through his gaze before he focused ahead. The footsteps of our pursuers echoed through the empty hallways.We were running out of time.Kael moved first, swift and lethal, takiqng down two men before they even had a chance
