CLARA

I parked my ass on one of the hard benches in the chapel and dialed, Lucaa’s number.

“Hey, girl!” she answered in her usual chipper voice. “I wasn’t expecting a call from you today.”

“Stop playing, Lucaa. Since when do I need to inform you before I call,” I replied.

“I was just kidding,” she replied with a light chuckle. “And I’m going to guess and say you’re in the chapel so what’s up?”

“I have news for you. In fact, I’m sure you would classify this as good news,” I said.

“Ouuuu…I’m set. Now tell me what it is,” she demanded like a child and I couldn’t help but let out a little laugh.

“Okay, I had a conversation with Mateo about the baby shower,” I started.

“Okay….” She replied tentatively, obviously having no idea where this was going.

So I went ahead and narrated the details of my conversation with Mateo. And in true Lucaa fashion, she listened without interrupting.

“That seems to have been a very interesting conversation,” she said when I had finished giving her the details.

  • The Mafia Don's Secret    Chapter 87~ He Doesn’t Know.

    MATEOEvery time I had to be in Renzetti’s presence, I always had to remind myself that I was playing the long game and not to do anything rash.That was why I hated these general gatherings. First, I couldn’t stand most of these lords and the feeling was definitely mutual but most importantly, this was just a colossal waste of my time.However, for the time being, I still answered Renzetti so I couldn’t decide to skip out on the meeting without putting myself on Renzetti’s radar, that was if I wasn’t already on it.This particular meeting was not our regularly scheduled one. No, Renzetti called this meeting as a matter of urgency and I had a good idea what he was going to say.Bruno also walked in and sat at the far end of where I was, not sparing me a glance because none of the people here must know that we were working together.As far as they were concerned, we both hated each other and I needed it to remain that way.“Hey, Mateo, do you know what this meeting is for?” Alfred, on

    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

    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“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 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

    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 01~ Pregnant?

    CLARA"Are you sure about selling your eggs?" the doctor asked as I sat in his cramped office. His voice was calm, almost too calm, as if this was just another routine day for him.I glanced at the stack of paperwork in front of me. My hands were trembling as I grabbed the pen. I didn’t want to be here. This wasn’t what I wanted for myself.But my phone buzzed again in my pocket, and I knew exactly what the message said without even looking."If you do not pay within three days, your aunt’s operation will be canceled."Three days. That was all the time I had. And I barely had enough money for food, let alone the operation fees.I sighed heavily and shoved the phone back into my pocket. Aunt Maggie’s medical bills were piling up, and the hospital wasn’t going to wait for me to figure things out.“No,” I admitted quietly, “I’m not sure about this.”The doctor’s face softened. “You don’t have to go through with it. There’s still time to back out.”Lucaa, sitting next to me, leaned forwar

    Chapter 02~ A Tough DecisionCLARAI sat in the bathroom, staring at the pregnancy test in my hand. Positive.I still couldn’t wrap my head around it. How could this have happened? I hadn’t… I couldn’t… It didn’t make any sense.My thoughts were interrupted by a knock at the door.“Clara? ” Lucaa’s voice came in.“I don’t understand,” I called, my voice shaking.She walked in and shut the door behind her, her face was pale. “I need to tell you something. And you’re not going to like it.”I frowned. “What is it?”She hesitated, running a hand through her hair. “The clinic… they made a mistake.”“A mistake?” I repeated, feeling my stomach drop.She nodded, guilt written all over her face. “They did the wrong surgery. You didn’t have an egg retrieval, Clara. You had a fertilization operation.”For a moment, I couldn’t breathe. The words didn’t make sense. “What are you saying, Lucaa? That I… that I’m pregnant because of this mediacal incident?”“Yes,” she said quietly.I stared at her, m

    MATEOI found Clara watching a show when I walked into the house.I guess she was feeling better since she wasn’t asleep like she had been the past few days.“Oh, I didn’t hear you come in,” she said when she finally noticed my presence.“I was quiet in case you were sleeping.”“Well, you didn’t need to do that. Most of the time when I fall asleep I’m usually dead to the world,” she replied.Don’t I know it?Sometimes I wished I could sleep the way she did but I guess that’s virtually impossible. I doubted she had much to worry about.“Have you had dinner?” I asked.She nodded. “Yes, Christopher fed me before he retired for the night.”“That’s good.”“Uhm… do you want me to dish out your dinner?” she asked.I shook my head. “No, I can do that myself.”“Okay, then,” she said and turned her attention back to the show she was watching.I turned to go to the kitchen but stopped in my tracks when she called for me.“Can I talk to you?” she requested.“Sure, what do you want to talk about?”

Trust me, I wish I could smack his face a million times. He keeps getting on my nerves, giving me reasons to get annoyed even more.“If you don’t have anything to tell me, I guess you should get going now.” I told him.“Fine. I was even about to do that now.” He stood up, heading for the door. “I really need the information, Bruno.” I said, trying to be calm as possible. “I need to know what step to take next.”“And I said no, Mateo. I can’t give you the information you need right now.” He smiled. “I will definitely tell you, but not today. And not even anytime this week.”I never knew he was damn serious with his words until he walked out of my room without hesitation. I walked towards the window, watching as he stepped into his ca
