The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 07~ Mateo's Contract
CLARA I woke up to the sound of low voices murmuring nearby. My body ached, and my head felt heavy as I blinked against the harsh light streaming into the room. As my vision cleared, I noticed two men sitting by my bedside, dressed in expensive suits and wearing a serious expression that immediately put me on edge.“Good, you’re awake,” one of them said, a little softly. He was holding a folder, and the sight of it made my stomach twist.“Who are you?” I managed to ask, feeling my throat run dry.“We work for Mr. Mateo De Luca,” the man replied, as if that explained everything. “He asked us to give this to you.” He handed me the folder, and I hesitated before taking it. I could feel my hands trembling as I opened it, revealing a thick stack of papers inside. “What is this?” I asked, not taking my gaze off the folder in my hand.“It’s your employment contract,” the man said plainly. “For the next two years, you will work as Mr. De Luca’s personal doctor. Your duties are limited to en

CLARA The day I was discharged from the hospital felt like a dream. I was still trying to process everything that had happened, but it seemed like the world wasn’t waiting for me to catch up. As I sat on the hospital bed for the last time, a man dressed in a sleek black suit entered the room. He looked expensive and intimidating, but his expression was calm. “This is for you,” he said, handing me a brand-new phone. I stared at it for a moment. “I don't understand." I stammered, not sure if I understood why everything seems to be happening so fast. "What’s this for?” “Boss wants to talk to you,” he simply replied, giving no room for arguments.I took the phone reluctantly and held it to my ear. “Hello?” Mateo's voice came through from the other end of the line. “Clara.” I swallowed nervously. “Yes?” “I’ve arranged for a driver to take you wherever you need to go,” he said, as though he hadn’t just turned my entire life upside down. “If you don’t want to go back to your unc

MATEO The business lunch never happened. Instead, the docks were where the real conversation took place. It was cold, and the air smelled of salt and blood. Lorenzo knelt on the ground, his clothes was torn and covered in blood. He was breathing hard, and his face pale. My men stood behind me, quiet, holding their guns, waiting for my command. I leaned against a stack of crates, rolling my cigar between my fingers, letting its orange glow lit faintly on my face. I could perceive the scent of tobacco mixed with the stench of the docks. “Let’s get one thing straight, Lorenzo,” I said, staring directly into his eyes. “You thought you could play me? Send a woman into my yatch like some pawn on your chessboard?” He coughed, spitting blood onto the wooden planks. “Mateo, I don’t know what you’re talking about,” he rasped. I crouched in front of him, close enough to see the fear in his eyes. “Don’t insult me." I said coldly. "I don’t like games, Lorenzo. You sent her, didn’t yo

CLARA I stared at the man before me, utterly confused. “Why… Why do we need to get engaged?” I asked, hoping this was somehow a dream or something.He rubbed the bridge of his nose, I could tell how obviously frustrated he was. “Clara, listen carefully. The old lady you met earlier today—that was my mother.” I blinked. His mother? “W–what?” “And she has a very specific misunderstanding,” he continued. “She thinks you’re my lover and that you’re carrying my child.” “What?!” I practically shouted, not minding my voice echoing the room. “I... I don't understand. Why would she think that?” Mateo sighed, like it wasn't in his strength to discuss this with me. “Because she saw you and jumped to conclusions. She’s… traditional, Clara. To her, having a child out of wedlock is unacceptable. She’s demanding I take you in and take responsibility.” I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. “But I’m not pregnant with your child! You know that, right?” He gave me a dry look. “Of course, I

CLARA “It’s in the contract. It clearly states we have to share the bed until my insomnia is resolved. Remember?”I stared at him, unable to believe what I’d just heard. Share a bed? Share a room? With him for the coming nights? Can someone please explain to me why it has to be this way?He didn’t seem fazed by my shock. Instead, he leaned back against the headboard, his bare upper body was on full display. His muscles rippled slightly as he reached for a book on the nightstand, and I quickly averted my eyes, feeling my cheeks heat up. Was it the pregnancy? Hormones, maybe? My heart was pounding, and my face felt warm, too warm. What type of man is he? For now reason, everything about him just makes my heart skip a beat?“I don’t have any pajamas,” I said awkwardly, trying to find an excuse to delay the inevitable. Mateo glanced at me, raised an eyebrow, and tossed a shirt from the foot of the bed. “This will do,” he said simply. I caught the shirt mid-air, staring at it like i
Last Updated : 2025-01-14The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 12~ The Hate You Give
CLARA I stood there, completely frozen, as Lily’s eyes pinned me in place. Her posture screamed arrogance, her gaze still flickering between me and the shirt I was wearing.I was beginning to wonder if her anger was because I was here, or because of the shirt I was putting on, or maybe both."Look, I know you don't like me and definitely don't want me here. But the truth is, I'm just a guest, that's all." I explained.“So, you’re just a guest, huh?” she sneered, crossing her arms over her chest. Obviously she didn't believe me. “Funny, I didn’t know guests wandered into someone else’s house at seven in the morning wearing clothes that don’t belong to them.” I could feel the heat creeping up my face. I wasn’t sure if it was embarrassment or anger. “The shirt was given to me,” I said, trying to keep my voice calm. “It’s just something I wore to sleep in.” She laughed in a mocking way. “Oh, really? And who gave it to you? Mateo? Please.” She rolled her eyes dramatically. “Like I sai

CLARA The moment Mateo walked toward me, I felt a wave of relief. His eyes softened as he crouched down, reaching out to help me to my feet. “Clara, are you okay?” he asked, a hint of concern stained in his voice.I nodded slowly, brushing my hands against my dress to steady myself. “I’m fine,” I replied, though I wasn’t. My stomach still churned with pain.His gaze shifted from me to Lily, “What exactly happened, Lily?”"She pushed me." I told him.Lily was quick to respond, crossing her arms and putting on an innocent face. “She spilled coffee all over me and then tripped. I didn’t touch her,” I didn't know this lady was all sweet talking.I opened my mouth to protest, but the butler interrupted, stepping forward. “It all happened so quickly, sir,” he said. “All I know is Miss Clara did hand over the coffee first.” I stared at the butler in disbelief. He had seen everything. He had seen how she had rudely spoken to me, he had to have noticed her little shove. But he wasn’t going

CLARA Mateo’s question about my family had left me unsettled, but I couldn’t let him see that. I wondered why he had suddenly asked me that. Did he suddenly grow interested to know my profile?I wasn't quick to respond, I chose my words carefully, hiding away the darkest parts of my past where they belonged—out of sight. “I grew up in a church,” I said softly, fiddling with the hem of Mateo’s shirt that I was still wearing. “After… everything that happened, the church became my refuge. It was where I found stability, even when nothing else made sense.” He kept staring at me with an unreadable expression that made me almost wonder if he was actually listening to me. “What do you mean by ‘everything that happened’?” I hesitated before forcing a small smile. “You know, losing my parents. After that, I moved in with my aunt and uncle. The church helped a lot. They made sure I had what I needed to get by.” I could feel his gaze, like he was trying to piece together a puzzle I wasn

The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 73~ Trust Issues
MATEO "I'm going to ask you this one question, Bruno." I leaned closer, eyes fixed on him. "Whose side are you on?""What's that supposed to mean, Mateo?" He snapped."It's just a question, Bruno."He scoffed, nodding his head. I leaned back in my chair, arms crossed, watching his face twist in frustration. He didn't want to show off that he was vexed at my question, but I could hear the slight tremor in his voice. He was angry, maybe even insulted, but underneath it all, he was desperate. "Don't you trust me?" he asked, narrowing his eyes. I tilted my head slightly, pretending to think. "At this point, Bruno, I’m not sure if I should." My voice was calm, but I knew he could feel every bit of it. "And you know... it’s not too late for me to have you killed." Bruno’s eyes flashed with fury. He scoffed, shaking his head. "And what exactly am I supposed to do to prove my loyalty, huh?" His hands clenched into fists on the table. "Because after a threat like that, do you really th
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 72~ Whose Side Are You On?
MATEOThe phone buzzed in my hand, and I answered without thinking. Dominic’s voice came through, low in a whisper. “Bruno wasn’t the one behind the men.”I sat up straight. “What?” “We roughed him up, threatened him to talk, but he wouldn’t say a word about who he met today. If Bruno was in on it, he would’ve cracked.”I exhaled sharply, running a hand through my hair. If it wasn’t Bruno, then who the hell was it?“Since you said it’s not Renzetti, and from our attack, it’s not Bruno either, then you’re right. There’s someone else in the picture.”“I’ll figure that out soon.”The call ended, but the words stuck with me. I tossed the phone onto the nightstand and laid back, staring at the ceiling. My mind raced with countless thoughts, trying to place the pieces together. If not Bruno… then who? Renzetti’s name floated in my head, but something inside me refused to pin it on him. He had power, sure. But he shouldn’t know I had eyes on him this close.Damn it. I clenched my jaw. I
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 71~ Threatened For The Truth
MATEOI walked into the mansion, my mind raced with everything that had just happened. The unknown caller, the man at the bar, and the warning… I didn’t like any of it. The moment I stepped inside, I called for Dominic. “Track this number,” I ordered, handing him my phone. “I want to know who it belongs to.” Dominic nodded without question and left immediately. I paced the room, trying to put the pieces together. Someone knew about my plans. Someone who wasn’t Renzetti—at least, that’s what it felt like. But who else could it be? Minutes passed before Dominic returned. “Boss,” he said. “The number can’t be tracked.” I frowned. “What do you mean the number can’t be tracked?” I barked. “That bastard just phoned me minutes ago, and it can’t be tracked?”“It’s unavailable. Whoever called you must have destroyed the SIM card immediately after the call.” For the first time in a long while, I felt something I wasn’t used to… defeat. I had dealt with enemies before, men who thought they
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 70~ The Strange Caller
MATEOI sat at the bar, swirling the drink in my glass as I waited for Bruno to speak. He looked uneasy, his fingers drumming lightly against the counter. Whatever he had to say, I could tell it wasn’t good. After a moment of silence, he finally leaned in. “Renzetti has been meeting with the Minister of Finance,” he said, almost in a whisper. I lifted an eyebrow, waiting for him to continue. “He’s been keeping track of the goods and products coming in and out of the state,” he added. “That means he wants to know what everyone does—their businesses, their incomes, their productivity. Not just the regular citizens, but also the Mafia lords.” I exhaled slowly, setting my glass down. This wasn’t entirely unexpected, but hearing it confirmed made things worse. Renzetti wasn’t just expanding his power—he was making sure no one could move without him knowing.I see.“How long has he been doing this?” I asked. Bruno shook his head. “I can’t say for sure, but judging from how organized ev
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 69~ Sweet Assurances
CLARAI couldn’t wait any longer. The dream haunted me, sticking to my every thought like a dark cloud that refused to disappear. No matter how many times I reminded myself it was just a nightmare, the fear wouldn’t leave me. I needed answers. Without telling Lily, without waiting for anyone, I took a taxi to the clinic. It wasn’t even my scheduled day for a checkup, but I didn’t care. I had to know. If there was still a chance, any chance, to stop this before it was too late… I needed to find out. As I sat in the back of the taxi, my hands trembled in my lap. The city passed by in a blur, my mind running in circles. What if the dream was a sign? What if the baby really wasn’t normal? Would they even allow me to get rid of it? Would Mateo stop me? The thought of him made my heart clench. I pulled out my phone and dialed Lucaa’s number. “Clara?” He answered almost immediately, his voice filled with concern. “Lucaa, I need you to meet me at the hospital,” I said quickly. “It’s
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 68~ Scary Nightmare
CLARAI stepped into the room quietly, hoping to avoid any conversation with Mateo. But as soon as I saw him standing by the window, my heart clenched. His back was to me, his posture straight, his hands tucked into his pockets. Something about the way he stood there made him look deep in thought, but I wasn’t about to ask what was on his mind. I turned quickly, ready to leave before he noticed me, but his voice stopped me. “Leaving so soon?” he asked, almost too calmly to neglect. I swallowed hard and turned back slowly. He was already walking toward me, his dark eyes locked onto mine. There was something unreadable in his expression, something that made my stomach tighten. I took a step back. And another. He kept coming closer. I stepped back again until I felt the cold surface of the door against my back. There was nowhere else to go. Mateo smirked, his head tilting slightly. “You feel scared around me,” he murmured, his voice low yet teasing, “and yet, you get jealous when
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 67~ Who's The Smarter One?
BRUNOI walked through the doors of my mansion, my fists clenched at my sides. All I could feel was anger. The moment I stepped in, my men turned to look at me, they all looked surprised to see me. Yes, I was locked up for three days if not mistaken, so they had every right to give me that concerned look. They could sense something was wrong, but I wasn’t in the mood to explain myself. “Boss, is everything okay?” Marco, my most trusted man, asked. I forced a smirk. “Of course. Why wouldn’t it be?” He studied me for a moment, but I didn’t let him see past my expression. I had already been humiliated enough today—I wasn’t about to let my men see how much it burned inside me. “Then why do you look like you just swallowed fire?” another man, Diego, questioned. I let out a short laugh, shaking my head. “I’m fine. Everything is fine.” But it wasn’t. Not even close. Inside, I was raging. Mateo had me right where he wanted me. He had made me look weak, like some puppet on a string, dan
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 65~ Giving Fate A Try
LILYI watched Mateo closely, my arms crossed over my chest. “I think Clara has feelings for you,” I said, waiting for his reaction. He didn’t look surprised. Instead, he gave a small nod. I raised an eyebrow. “So, you knew?” Again, he nodded. I tilted my head, studying him. “And? Do you have feelings for her too?” For the first time, Mateo didn’t have an immediate response. He just stood there, silent. I sighed. “You don’t have to answer me, you know. But I asked Clara the same question, and she refused to admit it.” Mateo looked at me then, having this unreadable expression. “She said she was only annoyed that we didn’t let her in when she was knocking,” I continued. “But I didn’t hear her knock.” Mateo’s gaze shifted slightly. I narrowed my eyes. “Did you hear it?” He hesitated for a second before answering. “Yes.” I frowned. “Then why didn’t you respond?” He ran a hand through his hair. “She knocked once. We were in the middle of settling our misunderstanding. How was
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 65~ Jealousy
CLARAI knocked twice, waiting for a response. Nothing. But I could hear voices inside, though they weren’t clear. My heart pounded a little as I hesitated. Maybe I should wait. Maybe they were busy. But something didn’t feel right. Without thinking much, I pushed the door open. And then I froze. Mateo was standing there, holding Lily’s hands. They were close—too close. Just an inch apart. My breath caught in my throat, and for a moment, I couldn’t move. Mateo turned his head sharply, his eyes locking onto mine. The way he quickly pulled his hands away from hers made it even worse. It felt like I had walked in on something I wasn’t supposed to see. “Clara?” he called with an uncertain voice.I didn’t answer. I couldn’t. My chest tightened painfully, and my fingers trembled as I reached for the door. Without another word, I stepped back, closed it behind me, and walked away. The pain in my heart was sharp, almost unbearable. I didn’t know why it hurt so much, but it did.I wa
