The Mafia Don's Redemption Chapter Eighty Five
Valentina.The sound of my palm against Matteo's cheek rang through the air, loud enough to compete with the distant rumble of thunder. For a brief moment, satisfaction flared in me as his head snapped to the side, the imprint of my hand already blooming red on his skin.This was the second time I was slapping this man.But this time, the satisfaction was fleeting.“Don’t you dare talk about Isabella that way,” I hissed, my voice trembling. “You don’t know anything about her... about us!”His head turned slowly, the anger I expected absent from his expression. Instead, there was something else... something dark and mocking that made the small victory I felt earlier sour in my stomach. “You’re right,” Matteo said, his tone too calm. “I don’t know everything about her. Or you. But I know enough.”I opened my mouth to retort, but before I could speak, Reed stepped forward. I hadn’t even realized he’d moved closer, his tall frame towering in the background like a storm cloud.“Enough,” R

Valentina. The incessant buzzing of the safe phone pulled me from sleep. I blinked, disoriented, the darkness of my room feeling heavier than usual.When had I even fallen asleep?Grabbing the phone from the nightstand, I squinted at the screen.Unknown.Just likes time.I knew better than to ignore it. Swiping to answer, I whispered, “Hello?” For a long moment, there was only silence. Then, the faint sound of breathing filtered through the line. “Isabella?” I asked, sitting up now, my pulse quickening. “Is that you?” No reply. My fingers clenched around the phone. “Please, say something. Are you okay?” My voice cracked, but I didn’t care. Static hummed in the background before muffled voices emerged. I pressed the phone tighter to my ear, straining to make sense of the fragmented words. “He’s at the estate,” a male voice murmured. Another voice, sharp and commanding, responded. “Good. Make sure no one leaves. I want no mistakes.” My chest tightened. Luca. There was

Damien.*The night after Valentina went to bed*It refused to stop. The storm.And it matched the chaos in my head, rain hammering against the windows of the study as I stared into the darkened room. The glass of whiskey in my hand trembled slightly, though I told myself it was from the cold.Not from the words spilling out of his lips."She has a safe phone," Reed had said that night, his voice calm yet pointed as he leaned against the doorframe, his arms crossed.I hadn’t responded at first. I had only raised a brow, silently demanding he explain why that piece of information mattered. "Isabella called her on it once," he continued, his tone quieter now. "That's how Valentina knew about Luca’s plans. She discovered Isabella must have been working against Luca... perhaps she knew about Luca’s plans and wanted to help her sister..." He stopped then, clearing his throat. "That doesn't matter anymore. But the moment she knew you were in danger, she didn't hesitate. She was ready to th

Matteo.The rain came down in torrents, mixing with the blood pounding in my ears. The car was totalled, smoke curling from the crumpled hood, and we were out of time. The sound of footsteps grew louder, boots crunching against the soaked earth as the shadows in the trees moved closer. I clenched my jaw, gripping the gun tightly as I pushed Valentina behind me. "Stay low," I muttered, scanning the darkness for movement. "And don't do anything reckless." "Reckless?" she whispered back, her voice sharp despite the fear I knew she was trying to suppress. "Don’t you dare tell me..." There was no time to argue. The first shot rang out, ricocheting off the twisted metal of the car. "Down!" I barked, shoving her toward the muddy ground as I fired blindly toward the sound. The fight began. A man emerged from the trees, his silhouette barely visible in the storm. I fired again, and he dropped, his gun falling uselessly beside him. Another appeared, then another. They moved quic

Valentina.This safe house was almost identical to the one Reed and I stayed in, a stark contrast to the sprawling estates and luxurious hotels I'd grown up in.It was bare, functional... four walls that offered safety but no comfort. The dim lighting and faint scent of mildew made it feel more like a bunker than a haven, and the constant hum of male voices reminded me that I didn't belong here.Nope. It wasn't close to identical to the old one. While I felt safe there, I felt...Boom. I woke up with a start, the echoes of gunfire from the previous day still rattling in my head. Matteo wasn't in the room. The space beside me on the bed was cold, and for a brief, irrational moment, I panicked.But then I heard his voice. It came from the hallway, low and steady, commanding as he spoke to his men. The tension in my chest eased, but only slightly. I wrapped my arms around myself, staring out the small, reinforced window at the grey sky. My body was stiff, my heart heavy. Reed was d

Matteo.The safe house was quiet, save for the faint him of the refrigerator and the occasional shuffle of boots from one of the men stationed outside.Valentina had gone to bed hours ago, though I doubted she was sleeping. The past week had been brutal on both of us. The fire, Reed's death, and now the knowledge that Luca had taken Isabella to goodness knows where... they were out there, somewhere, likely plotting his next move.I still didn't trust Isabella... but Valentina did, and I trusted her judgement. I poured another glass of whiskey, the amber liquid catching the dim light as I swirled it around the glass. The laptop on the table in front of me glowed softly, displaying the results of my latest search.Lorenzo Giordano. The name had been haunting me for days. Richard had lied to me using the name after giving it to me under duress... should I even call it that? Ambushed me, almost killed Valentina...I almost let him go so I could focus on just Valentina and finding Luca,

Matteo.I swirled the wine in my glass, watching the crimson liquid catch the moonlight."Let's skip the pleasantries, Lorenzo. You've been off the grid for years. Why surface now?"Lorenzo’s smirk didn’t falter. He leaned against the balcony railing, his gaze sweeping across the ocean as though he had all the time in the world. "I could ask you the same thing, Matteo. Crashing my little soirée uninvited... what could be so important?"I would punch the smug smile off his face if it wouldn't put Valentina in a bad position. So I clenched my jaw, keeping my voice level. "You were close to my mother. I want to know why."Valentina stiffened beside me, her fingers brushing against mine. I couldn’t tell if it was a gesture of support or an unconscious reaction to the tension radiating from me. Either way, it grounded me, kept my focus sharp.Lorenzo chuckled, a low, smooth sound that grated on my nerves. "Ah, yes. Claudia. She was... unforgettable." He took a slow sip of his wine, savour

Valentina.The room was too quiet for a space packed with this much tension. Matteo stood next to me, his jaw clenched, eyes flicking between Lorenzo and the map on the monitor.Lorenzo, though, leaned casually against the wall, smirking like he was the only one in on the joke."Cheer up, Matteo. It's not every day you face the devil himself."But it wasn't the map that was holding my attention, though.It was him.Lorenzo.More precisely, the way he kept glancing at Matteo when he thought no one else was looking.Subtle glances. The way his expression softened... not with the usual rocky amusement but with something... gentler. Warmer. It wasn't admiration. It wasn't envy. It was something that made my stomach twist because it was too close to...Longing.I didn't trust him. And I knew Matteo didn't either, and yet here we were, walking straight into the spider's web because he had dangled the one thing we couldn't resist.Luca's location."Alright," Matteo said finally, his voice cu

Valentina.Matteo woke up twelve hours after his surgery. I was there, standing in the corner of the room, shrouded in the shadows cast by the dim hospital lighting. I'd stayed long after the others had been ushered out... Valerie, Lorenzo, Ethan... all of them trying to coax me into taking a moment to rest, to eat, to breathe.But I couldn't leave him.When his eyes finally fluttered open, confusion clouded his expression. Those beautiful eyes wandered, tracing the IV in his arm, the bandages around his neck, and the faint rhythm of the heart monitor beside him.He looked so lost.I wanted to rush at him, to grab his hand, to tell him he was safe. But my feet felt like lead, my chest tightening with an ache that I didn't know how to express.So I stayed where I was, watching him from afar. The staff couldn't believe I was the same woman who had almost thrown herself on his bed so I would be wheeled in with him.Matteo murmured something... a weak, hoarse sound I couldn't make out..

Valentina."Matteo!" The scream ripped from my throat, raw and primal, echoing off the walls. My hands trembled as I pressed them harder against the gaping wound on his neck. Blood seeped between my fingers, warm and sticky, staining my skin and my soul."No, no, no," I choked out, my voice cracking as I leaned over him. "Matteo, stay with me. Please, stay with me."His face was getting paler with every second that passed, his chest rising and falling in those shallow, uneven rhythms.I pressed harder against the wound, ignoring the way my hands shook, ignoring the tears streaming down my face. "You're not leaving me," I whispered fiercely. "Do you hear me? You're not allowed to leave me!""Somebody, help!"Anybody.Isabella stood near the edge of the room, arms crossed and face unreadable. Her lips twisted into that maddening, faint smirk as Luca’s... there had to be his... men darted around her, their boots pounding against the floor.The moment the faint wail of sirens broke thro

Valentina.The silence after a gunshot could be deafening, a void that swallows everything. No one ever talked about how it felt to pull the trigger that took a life, even if said life had been dead long before you pulled that trigger.I stood there, my arms hanging limp by the sides, the gun slipping from my hand to clatter on the blood-streaked floor. My chest heaved with shallow breaths as I stared at her... our mother, slumped and motionless.So quiet in the face of death.Her lifeless eyes stared back at me, now glassy and unseeing. Blood pooled around her head, soaking into the floor, a dark halo of guilt I'd painted myself."No," I whispered, the word tasting foreign and hollow.My knees buckled, but I didn't fall. My body was rooted, trapped in this moment, as if time itself refused to let me leave.What had I done? From the corner of my vision, Isabella shifted. Her face fixed with a mask of indifference, though her lips were curling ever so slightly into a smirk that sent

Matteo.The metallic tang of blood filled my nostrils, sharp and suffocating. Luca's knee drove deeper into my chest, pinning me to the blood-slick floor. The knife in his hand pressed harder against my throat, its edge biting into flesh with a cold, merciless precision.Warmth spread across my neck, the metallic smell sharp in the air. I gasped, the air a fleeting luxury as my body thrashed instinctively beneath his weight."Look at you," Luca sneered, his voice low, dripping with venom. "The great Matteo Nevarro reduced to this. Pathetic." His face hovered just above mine, his grin unhinged, his green eyes alight with triumph. My vision blurred, edges darkening as the oxygen slipped away. My hands clawed at his wrists, my fingers trembling with desperation, but his grip remained unyielding.The lunatic was truly going to kill me.Then, as the world began to darken, her face appeared. Valentina. Her laughter, light and rare, the way her lips curled despite the weight of her own

Matteo."I'll kill you with my own hands, Luca."My breath came in sharp, controlled bursts as I squared off with Luca. His men surrounded us, their guns trained on me, and Lorenzo’s men who had survived the chaos outside. The air in the room was electric, thick with tension, and the metallic tang of blood."I should have known," I continued before he said anything again, keeping my voice low yet steady. "I should've known you'd never stop until you destroyed everything."Luca had always wanted what wasn't meant for him. Even from a younger age, when he had come to live with my father and I, alongside his mother and sister, he had wanted everything I had.Every toy.Every achievement.He simply wanted to have it all. And every single time he got it then he destroyed it afterwards. He burnt the toys, he tore the certificates, he told the lesson teachers to leave or he'll scar them."Destroyed?" Luca echoed, a laugh bursting from him, dark and sharp. "You're standing in front of the onl

Matteo."I hate you. Do you hear me? I HATE YOU."My hands had lingered on the cold steel of the door handle when she screamed those words, the echo of the lock sliding into place still ringing in my ears.It wasn't a decision I had taken lightly.Locking Valentina up in a room with her psycho of a mother to keep her safe was probably the dumbest thing I had ever done, but it was worth it. If it gave her an opportunity to leave here safely, then I had to believe that.My boots scraped against the concrete as I forced myself to move, step by step, away from that door. Each step felt heavier than the last, weighed down by a mix of guilt and resolve.Fuck.Had I done the right thing?No. I couldn't afford to think about that now, so I pushed the thought aside, my jaw tightening as I straightened my posture. There was no time for doubt.Luca was out there, and every second spent questioning my decision was just a second wasted. When this was over, I would fall to her feet, kiss it, even

Valentina.The words echoed in my head like a gunshot, deafening and final. Pedro Nevarro is dead.My hands trembled as I lowered my gun, my mind racing. Pedro Nevarro was the father to Matteo, Luca, and Sophia Nevarro. An institution that defies all forces and came back stronger to rule his gang with his heir. If Luca had managed to kill him...I didn’t finish the thought. I couldn’t. In front of me, Isabella’s smirk widened, her eyes gleaming with a twisted sort of satisfaction. She confused me most times. The woman who had changed within minutes of our departure, then helped me by giving me clues and all..."Well," she said lightly, brushing imaginary dust off her sleeve, "it seems our dear family is shrinking faster than expected."But irrespective of all she had done for me, I didn't know her. Didn't understand her. Didn't trust her.So I shot her a glare, my chest tightening with fury. "Shut up, Isabella." But she didn’t. Of course, she didn’t. She was much more talkati

Valentina. "Luca is here!" Someone shouted from somewhere in the forsaken warehouse, the words cutting through the distant gunfire like a blade.Chaos erupted around us. The echoes of bullets ricocheted through the warehouse, sharp and unforgiving. The air felt heavy with the tang of metal and sweat, pressing down on me with every breath I took.My heart thundered in my chest as I turned to Matteo. His face was a mask of focus, his jaw clenched tightly as he scanned the room for threats. “We have to leave,” he said, his voice low but urgent. “Now.” “No!” I yelled, my hands trembling as I gestured to the figure tied up on the floor. “We can’t just leave her here!” My mother’s glare burned into me from where she sat, bruised and bound, as though this entire mess was somehow my fault. “She doesn’t want our help,” Matteo snapped, his voice as cold as steel. I stared at him, disbelief twisting in my gut. “That doesn’t matter! I’m not leaving her!” The gunfire grew louder, clo
The Mafia Don's Redemption Chapter Ninety Five
Valentina.The sharp scent of gasoline and damp concrete filled my nose as we walked through the narrow corridor of the abandoned warehouse.The walls loomed close, painted with age and grime, while faint echoes of dripping water amplified the unease curling in my stomach.I had felt it the entire drive here... that tightening in my chest, the nausea rolling under my ribs. It wasn’t just nerves. It was dread. A tangible warning that something terrible was waiting for us. And yet, I couldn’t bring myself to turn back. Matteo stalked ahead, his shoulders tense, his gun held low but ready. Alessia flanked the rear, her eyes scanning the shadows, every muscle in her body coiled for action. The rest of the men were intertwined with us, close enough to know they were around yet far enough that I couldn't see them.We moved in silence, connected only by the whispers of Lorenzo’s voice in our earpieces, feeding us directions and updates. “Five guards on the north side, Matteo,” Lorenzo
