The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 26~ Mateo, Clara Is In Trouble!
CLARA It's been closed to thirty minutes or more since Lily left and I couldn't help but pray she was safe. I was more hopeful she'd find Mateo just in time to save me. I didn't want to think our unlikely terms would be the reason she doesn't save me even though that's what my brain kept saying.The door to the room slammed open, making me jump. Romero walked in, his face was stained with anger. My heart sank as I saw the furious look in his eyes. I'm doomed, aren't I?"Where is she?" he barked, scanning the room. I stared at him, and I could feel my body dancing to the tone of fear. "I-I don’t know," I stammered. "I’m tied up. How would I know where she went?" Romero’s face wore a deeper frown as he stepped closer to me, his boots echoing against the floor. "Don’t lie to me," he growled. "You must’ve helped her escape." "I didn’t!" I stared at him, meeting his gaze. "I swear, I have no idea where she is!" He stopped right in front of me, leaning down until his face was inche

CLARA Mateo didn’t say a word as he stormed toward Romero. His fists clenched so tightly I could see his knuckles turn white. Before Romero could react, Mateo grabbed him by the collar and slammed him into the wall with a loud thud. “You bastard!” Mateo roared, punching him square in the face. “How dare you think you could have your way on her?”Romero stumbled, blood already dripping from his nose, but he tried to fight back. Mateo didn’t stop, landing punch after punch. His face was full of anger, and I was beginning to fear for Romero's sake. “Mateo!” I shouted, but he didn’t even look at me. Lily rushed to me, quickly untying the ropes around my wrists. Her hands were shaky but fast. “Are you alright?” she asked, her voice filled with concern. I nodded, even though my body still felt weak and my heart was pounding. “Yes… I’m fine.” I couldn’t believe she’d come back—with Mateo. I looked at her. Almost like in a whisper, I said. “Thank you, Lily.” She only nodded while h

CLARA As soon as we got home, I turned to Lily, wanting to thank her again for coming back for me. “Lily,” I started, my voice soft, “thank you for—” But she didn’t stop or even look at me. She walked straight to her room, leaving me standing there awkwardly. I sighed, was I going too far with thanking her over again? Or was it just the fact that she was still shaken from everything that happened? “I’ll talk to her tomorrow,” I whispered to myself and headed to my own room. That night, I heard the commotion outside. Romero and his men had been captured and were being dragged into the underground dungeon. From my window, I saw them pleading, their hands tied and their faces full of fear. Mateo stood over them like a storm ready to destroy. “I’ll deal with you tomorrow,” Mateo said coldly, showing no aota of emotion. Romero begged, “Please, Mateo! Give us another chance!” But Mateo didn’t even look at him. He just turned away. Moments later, his phone rang. He answered it and

CLARA The next morning, things felt different. Lily and I had eased up already, and it seemed like we were back to normal—or at least something close to it. What surprised me most was Lily’s change. She wasn’t acting like a cat anymore, constantly scratching at me with her words or attitude. She seemed calmer, softer even. It made me feel more comfortable around her, though I couldn’t help but wonder what had caused the change.Later in the day, I found myself walking up to the chapel. It had become a quiet place for me to think when everything felt too loud. As I sat on one of the benches, I decided to call Lucaa. I needed to know if there was any new information and if Dominic was still in the hospital. Lucaa picked up after a few rings. She was sounding warm as always. “Clara! How are you holding up?” “I’m okay,” I replied, though I wasn’t entirely sure if that was true. “I just wanted to check if you’ve found out anything new… and about Dominic. Is he still in the hospital?”

CLARA By the time my conversation with Lucaa ended, I realized how hungry I was. My stomach growled, reminding me I hadn’t eaten since I woke up. I decided to head back to the mansion and grab something to eat.As I walked into the dining room, I froze. There, on the table, was food already set, and sitting there—eating—was Lily. I blinked, half-expecting her to scowl at me like she usually did. But instead, she glanced up and said something that completely caught me off guard.“Are you going to keep standing there like a confused person,” she asked, though her tone was harsh but not as annoying as before, “or will you make yourself comfortable and eat?”I stood there for a moment, unsure of how to respond. The last time Lily and I sat at the same table, it felt like a war was about to break out. She made it painfully clear back then that she didn’t want me anywhere near her. But now… she was asking me to join her? Even if her tone was still a bit harsh, it felt different—softer, som

LILY I couldn't tell why I was this nice to her. Not like I didn't like the new me, but it felt weirder than I thought. I mean, I wasn't one to play the nice girl to people I don't feel quite comfortable with. But somehow, I wish I knew, I was beginning to grow a bit comfortable around Clara.Maybe, the incident had really thought me a lot. Maybe, she wasn't my real enemy after all. She had risk her life to save mine, and I couldn't let our relationship deprive me from saving her when I ought to.Asking her to join me eat was another thing I needed to question myself about. Normal me wouldn't give a damn whether or not she ate, and I wouldn't even get myself stealing glances at her.The way she hummed and spoke nicely with Christopher somehow fascinated me. I wished I could have that part of her in my life, and even though she was doing her best to offer it fully, I couldn't get myself to show how much I appreciated it.As I stood before my mirror, I recalled her words to me; "You kn

CLARAI sat in the garden, staring at the flowers as the cool breeze brushed against my skin. My mind wandered back to how much my life had changed since the night my mother died. Those memories felt like a heavy weight, pressing down on my chest.Living with Aunt Maggie and Uncle Mark after that wasn’t exactly a dream come true, but it was better than having nowhere to go. Aunt Maggie tried her best, but Uncle Mark… he made life unbearable. Now that he was out of the picture, I couldn’t help but wonder how peaceful Aunt Maggie’s life must be without him constantly around to make her miserable. For the first time in a while, I felt a sliver of hope for her. I was so lost in thought that I didn’t notice someone approaching until Lily’s voice cut through the silence. “You’re up early,” she said, and I felt even more relieved at the sound of her voice.I looked up, surprised to see her standing there. Her arms were crossed, and she was watching me like she wasn’t sure what to make of

CLARAHe didn’t look my way, but everything about him screamed authority. He was the perfect image of a Mafia—calm, commanding, and dangerous in the quietest way. Honestly, he reminded me of Mateo, like he could be a second version of him. Or maybe brothers, who knows?No wonder Mateo had been so bent and ready to destroy those who had dared harm him. But it wasn’t just his presence that caught my attention. It was his eyes. They weren’t black, and they weren’t brown. They were a strange shade of grey with hints of brown, a mix that made them almost hypnotic. They reminded me of Aaron Pierre’s eyes from the movie; “Mufasa”. Honestly, if there was any way I could keep staring at them, then I’ll gladly do that a million times.However, Lily moved toward him, breaking my thoughts. She didn’t hesitate as she threw her arms around him in a tight hug. The kind that made me wonder if she last saw him ten years ago. “You’re okay,” she said softly, almost as if she needed to hear it for herse

The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 96~ You Don’t Sleep Outside This Room Anymore!
CLARAI woke up the next morning, feeling groggy but well rested.The baby chose that moment to start kicking and I rubbed my hands over my belly, hoping to calm me down.It took me a few moments to remember that I wasn’t in the master bedroom but rather in the guest bedroom, Lily usually uses. Damn, yesterday must have taken a lot from me but I could only imagine that Mateo didn’t take too kindly to me not sleeping in the bedroom.Well, that was his business. I had no regrets and I was definitely not going to apologize to him.The door opened and Lily walked in holding a mug. Her eyes lit up when she saw me awake.“Oh, good. You’re awake. I was worried I was going to have to wake you up,” she said.I smiled at her. “Good morning, and thank you for letting me spend the night here. I didn’t want to be alone,” I said.She walked over to me and set the steaming mug of coffee by the nightstand.“You’re welcome. Besides, I liked the company. I think it was another bonding moment for us and
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 95~ You Should Have Been There!
MATEOI heard stomping in front of my office and I knew who it was before the door was thrown open.My mother came into my office wearing a frown I recognized all too well.I had expected her earlier but a look at the security cameras at the house told me that they were still in the middle of their party and they seemed to be having a blast.For the life of me, I had no idea why I needed to be there, it was a ladies’ affair so if you asked me, my mother’s anger was clearly misguided.“It’s late, Mom. Aren’t you tired after the day you’ve had?” I asked.“What the hell has come over you, Mateo?!”My mother hardly cursed except she was very pissed and that was what she was.“I’m working, Mom, and I don’t appreciate the interruption,” I said.“I don’t care about what it is you’re doing. I didn’t raise you to act the way you did this morning. It was unacceptable and you will apologize to Clara for that.”I sighed and ran my hand through my hair. I’ve had a long day and I didn’t intend to a
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 94~ He Should Have Been Here.
CLARAWhen Mrs. Antonia put her mind to something, there was no stopping her.I had barely gotten home from my appointment yesterday when a courier came to collect the envelope from me as per her request.She also informed me that she had spoken to Mateo about using the family room for the gender reveal and he didn’t object so things were on track.The family room was unrecognizable by the time I walked in. The room had been decorated in a tasteful shade of pink and blue. I wondered how they were able to get all this work done without making any noise.I retreated and went into the kitchen to find, Mrs. Antonia sipping a cup of coffee.“Good morning,” I greeted.“Morning dear. You’re up earlier than I expected,” she replied.“I had an early night,” I explained.“Well, I the guests would be arriving in a few hours so have some breakfast and go get ready,” she said.I opened my mouth to respond but someone else beat me to it.“I didn’t expect you here this early,” Mateo said.“Good morn
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 93~ Gender Reveal.
CLARAThis time round, I was driven to the hospital by one of Mateo’s guards. I had tried to protest, but he wasn’t having it.It’s more like he didn’t even give me the chance to argue, so I just went with the flow.I was lying down in the exam room waiting for the doctor to arrive. I read that at this stage, there was a high chance for me to start dilating since I was dangerously close to term.All in all, I just wanted everything to be okay.The doctor walked in a few moments later, saving me from my mental torture.He smiled at me and asked, “How’re you doing today?”“A bit uncomfortable, but overall, I feel quite good,” I answered.He nodded. “A little discomfort is to be expected since you’re in your third trimester.”“Well, I’m about ready to evict this baby from my womb, so let’s get on with this appointment,” I replied.“Very well then, lift up your shirt for me, please,” he said.I raised my shirt, exposing my huge belly.The doctor squirted the cold gel on my belly and ran t
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 92~ Signs of Delivery.
CLARAI was officially in the awkward phase of pregnancy where I could no longer walk properly. Instead, I waddled like a penguin.And the discomfort, God, I was so uncomfortable. My feet were swollen and I had taken to wearing crocs and slippers because I could no longer tie my shoes on my own, also because those were the only footwear I owned that were comfortable enough.Not to talk about the fact that I was in a constant shitty mood so I was grumpy. Christopher had taken the brunt of my bad mood and he had been gentle, calm, and understanding through it all that I felt really bad for snapping at him.Let’s not talk about how I’ve been actively avoiding Lucaa and Mrs. Antonia because with them it was always something new. Ever since they began planning my baby shower, I haven’t known peace.Did I mention that Lucaa changed her vision board three more times?Yes, she did because she wanted everything to be perfect and the previous ones weren’t doing it justice.Now I was hiding out
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 91~ Renzetti’s Suspicion.
RENZETTII slammed my office door closed, still fuming after the disaster of the meeting.What the hell was wrong with those fuckers!Didn’t they realize that I had the power to get rid of them if I wanted to?!I really needed to tighten my leash on them and make them remember who was in charge, and never forget it.How dare they challenge me when I was the one that called for the fucking meeting?Carlos, my second in command walked in and I turned my furious gaze to him.“I need to do something about those fuckers before they get any crazy ideas. They need to remember that I hold their fate in my hands,” I growled.He nodded. “I agree.”It’s not like he could disagree in the first place. That was why Carlos has been such a good right-hand to me. He knew when to shut up and do what he was told. I had also never questioned his loyalty.“But first I need to find the idiot who was stupid enough to order a large shipment of guns on my watch and he even killed my men!”“Whoever is responsi

BRUNO“You’re not going to offer me a drink?” Mateo asked and I glared at him.“Here I was thinking you were a hospitable host,” he added.“I’m only hospitable to people I invite into my home, you just decided to show up,” I replied.He nodded. “Fair enough, but what was that all about?” he asked.“Nothing important, she was just a girl that I brought home last night. But she seemed to have no idea what the concept of a one-night stand is. Somehow she got it in her head that we had something special going,” I explained.“And her accusation about you being gay?”“She heard our conversation and I told her I was expecting a guest. She interpreted it to mean that it was a lady and when you showed up, she made assumptions.”“Hmm… you sure do know how to pick them, Bruno. I never would have pegged you to be a player,” Mateo said.“Oh, please spare me the righteous act, like you don’t go chasing some tail from time to time,” I retorted.“Unlike you, I don’t sleep around and even if I did, br
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 89~ Are You Gay?
BRUNOI ended the call and turned to look at her.“Oh, good. You’re dressed. Do you want me to call you a cab?” I asked.“I thought at the very least, you would be a decent human being but here you are propositioning another person when I’m still in your house,” she said, glaring daggers at me.“Last I checked, I don’t owe you any explanation about how I live my life. Who I do or don’t invite into my home is none of your damn business,” I replied.“I can’t believe this. You used me and now you’re just trying to dispose of me like trash?”“Now, I’m not going to let you continue slandering me and assuming things I never even said. I have been patient enough with you and accommodating your shit. There’s a limit to the amount of shit I can take so don’t even push your luck, Linda.”“My name is, Lacey!” she yelled. “Jeez, you can’t even get that right.”“And what does that tell you?” I asked. “Why don’t you do us both a favor and just go.”She pursed her lips into a stubborn pout and sat d

BRUNO“Is that supposed to be a threat?” Alfred asked.I was in no fucking mood to deal with, his antics. Alfred did not know what personal space was and worse, he did not know when to get a fucking clue.That was going to get him killed one day.“I don’t make threats, Alfred, and I was just giving you a subtle reminder of what happens to people who refuse to mind their business,” I replied.He looked to Mateo, probably expecting tobe backed up but, Mateo just shrugged and closed his car door.His driver took off, leaving me alone with, Alfred who has refused to get a fucking clue and move on. “You don’t want to make an enemy of me,” he said and I laughed.Oh, he was hilarious. Just because he held the title of a lord, he thought he could threaten me with the little territory he controlled.“I don’t bother about people like you, Alfred. And just so you know, Mateo and I might be enemies but one thing that’s constant in life is change. You just pray that this change does not end up get
