Synopsis

CASTELLO DI CARTE MAFIA CHRONICLES, BOOK 1 [Also known as PRECARIOUS: THE GAME OF HEARTS] 𝐁𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐀 When my mother's declining health forced me to reconsider my career options, my boss steered me in an unexpected direction. The was simple: get in, get the information, and get the out. Except, it wasn't that easy. Especially when my target was the most nefarious man alive in New York. The closer I got to him, the more I saw sides of him I never expected. He burned me with his scorching touch, demanding and eager gazes. He was determined to have me at all costs. One might think he would stop at that, but—devil, help me—he needed more. More than I was ready to give. There was a reason I never wanted to the Underworld. When my past came crashing onto my doorstep, every lie unravelled, but nothing prepared me for the worst. The truth about the connection between the man I desired and my dead sister. 𝐀𝐃𝐎𝐍𝐈𝐒 We all know what they say about sweet things: when consumed excessively, they turn from savoury to bitter. That was what she was. A poor excuse for a sweet I wanted to devour. I wanted to make her suffer with the same intensity. She deserved it. And so did her scheming sister. Only, I didn’t know the latter was dead, and I might be the one at fault. But did that stop me from craving her? , no. My desire to have her magnified. She became mine the moment she walked into my life with those hauntingly blue eyes. She could give me the one thing I never had in life: happiness. But being the master at ruining everything, how could I ever be the man she wanted me to be?

Chapter 0001

ADONIS Nine years ago I had killed a man an hour ago, only to become something I had never imagined—the boss of the most powerful crime family in the New York Cosa Nostra. The capo of the Vitale Crime Empire. Everyone expected me to give a speech about this uplifting experience, to tell them of the plans I had for the future of this syndicate. To say I had any would’ve been a lie. Everything about this was sudden, a catastrophe I couldn’t put a stop on. But, lucky for me, the moment I stepped on the stage, a courier arrived in my name—a box wrapped in colourful papers and adorned with ribbons like a fucking Christmas gift—stopping me from giving a speech I hadn’t even prepared. “Open the box,” dozens of suited men now under my reign yelled, curiosity piquing in their voices. I had no choice but to oblige. I hadn’t received a present in ages, at least not in boxes unless they were dead bodies of traitors and liabilities, or expensive drugs, weapons and liquors. This box looked to...

BELLA “You could’ve told him to shove that empty file up his fat ass,” Harley said, gulping her fifth tequila shot. If I hadn’t known her better, I would've been surprised. Harley’s limit, which an average person called drunk, was only getting started, whereas I was on my fourth and my head was already hulking with the beats. “I seriously don’t want to talk about it on my night off. God forbid, we don’t get many of these.” “You’re right.” She shrugged. “Ron’s a dick. He keeps handing extension contracts to us because he’s too much of a slacker to go recruiting himself. At least you’re lucky this is your last mission. I still have one and a half years for my contract to fucking end.” “My last mission was supposed to be the end of my agent days,” I said, slouching in my seat at the bar. “What made you agree to this?” she asked. “Coming to think of it, you’ve never accepted a mission remotely close to the Mafia world.” “With good reason.” The reason I would rather die with than tel

ADONIS After hours of damage control at the casino, Dom and I returned to the warehouse where the drama had already started. Our latest rat’s, Nico’s, screams echoed through the metal door of the basement. Those sounds would only get louder and fiercer. I hated traitors. Betrayal was punishable by a slow, painful death. I paused and turned to Dom. “Is there anything else you want to tell me? Anything I should know before I go in?” “Julian called,” Dom responded in a hushed tone. “He said the club’s full of teenagers. Mostly. Everyone is being drugged, men and women.” “Stop all of it. Clear the bar and get everyone back home safely,” I ordered. “And I need Nico’s lackeys. Catch as many as you can. I need to know how many people they’ve transported till now and where.” “Okay.” He nodded, dialling on his phone. “This racket needs to be stopped.” I pushed the rusty door open; the handle stained with dried blood. Nico’s hands were shackled to the ceiling with thick metal chains that

BELLA Fluttering my eyes open, the white ceiling was the first thing I noticed. My heart skipped a beat. I blinked several times, hoping the ceiling to somehow fade into the colour of that in my apartment—a light greyish. James’s disgusting grin flashed before my eyes and I squealed, covering my face with the blanket and throwing my legs on the bed. “You did not,” I said to myself. “You didn’t,” a male voice answered. I peered out of the blanket and my eyes paused on a pair of turquoise blue eyes standing near the doorframe of the room. I pulled myself upright on the bed, my cheeks heating. This man was definitely a treat for my sore eyes with a long face, pointed nose, a sharp jawline and a perfect V waist stressed by his tight t-shirt. The fringes of his dark-brown hair were dyed light-brown at the front. I felt a flush of relief overcome me. “And I am your handsome saviour. Your knight in shining armour.” “It’s irritating how guys find those words so satisfying to utter.” “

BELLA If anyone hated our boss wholeheartedly, it was my tech buddy, Colton Davis. With the right amount of wit, Cole could just as easily blow Ron’s shit up. The part of the job I loved most was Cole, since the first mission we partnered on and every other project through the years. He and I were the golden pair, the dynamic duo of the Skyfall Corps. While I was the arms and the heavy lifter, he was the brain and an absolute mastermind. Cole looked a lot better than he did two days ago, less exhausted. He scratched his head. “Ron gave me a shit ton of lecture on this. All bullshit! He could’ve handed us this,” he tore the sticky note off the leather file our boss had handed me, "sticky note, instead of the stupid, empty file. What are we supposed to do? Fill this?" “Maybe you should take this up with him.” “I’d end up choosing violence over a civilised conversation, B, which is so not me.” He fanned his face. “He offered this to us because everyone else refused. I can bet on it.”

The Mafia Lord And His Spy Lover (Book 1)/Shreya Sengupta

ADONIS David Vitale was a man of power, and everyone was aware of it. Even though his reign as the capo had ended nine years ago, most of the underbosses, captains, and soldiers feared him still. But despite all the power he held, he had not an ounce of respect from my side. Just tolerance. Liking a family member didn’t need to be a necessity to have dinner or breakfast at the same table. It was true; I was who I was because of him, but he had his own selfish reasons for making me the capo of the Vitale Empire. Why else would he give such an influential position to a nephew he barely liked? To the bastard child of the family? “Where’s your father?” I asked Phoebe as I sat at the long table, beside the head seat that belonged to Uncle. Phoebe looked up at me from across the table with her light-blue eyes while munching on her plate of buttered toast and bacon. “He’s upstairs.” “What’s he doing?” “I don’t know. Why don’t you go ask him?” She scoffed. “It’s not like he answers me,

The Mafia Lord And His Spy Lover (Book 1)/Shreya Sengupta

BELLA Cole was on the terrace of the six-storey apartment across the street from Raffy’s bar, while I was in the alleyway at the back that smelt worse than a sewer and rotten bodies, which wasn’t surprising considering the territory I was in. I feared stumbling on an actual dead body, as it was so dark. “It’s getting cold up here, B.” Cole’s voice came through one of the mini earbuds plugged in. The sound cracked because of the whooshing sound of the chilly breeze. “I’m standing in a cold alleyway wearing a tight mini-dress, Cole. I think you’ll survive,” I shuddered. “Sorry, B.” “Any update on that side?” I asked. The sound of crunching and chewing reached my ears. Cole was like that. He preferred food before missions. But if anything went down by fault, he’d puke everything out. “Hello, I know you’re hungry, but can we please concentrate?” I yelled. “Oh, yeah. There’s no sign of him yet.” “Great!” “And you? No one on your side yet?” I groaned. “Not yet.” The sound of the doo

BELLA “Going there tomorrow wouldn’t be wise,” Cole said, scratching his head as he dropped on the couch. “I know. The way the man was staring at me was so unnerving.” “What about the man you knocked out? He didn’t see your face, did he?” I shook my head. His eyes grew enormous as if he had remembered something important. “Where’s the pass?” “Um...” The aftermath of my situation rewound in my head. I had returned to the alleyway to put the pass back where I had found it and move the man near the back door. “I gave it back.” I got up, pushed the loose strands of my hair behind my ears, and looked for my slippers. The apartment we had moved into was a lot bigger than the one I shared with Harley. The company covered all the expenses, which was mostly good for us. Shoving my hands into the pocket of my loose shorts, I left the apartment and walked straight into the cafe across the street. Since we’d arrived here two days ago, I’d been coming twice a day to this place, just to drink

BELLA I slammed the door shut behind me and pressed my back to its wooden surface. My hands and feet were shaking in fear. Every nerve in my body trembled. When I went on a mission, everything about me was different. In other words, fake. Be it the clothes, style and makeup or the accent and name. I studied my target and behaved according to the data I gathered on them. Adonis had come up to me when I had nothing, except for the fake name. And evidently, it had made our situation an unpredictable mess. “I met someone,” I said the moment I saw Cole stepping out of his room, scratching his butt. “You scared me.” He put a hand on his chest and stretched his legs out, dropping onto the couch. “How exciting,” he mocked. “Though I would’ve been happier if it were Vitale.” “It was Vitale,” I announced, astonishment running through my voice. He was devilishly handsome with his Satan-gifted looks. The name Adonis had fitted no one better. I would’ve never guessed he was Vitale if it hadn’

The Mafia Lord And His Spy Lover (Book 1)/Shreya Sengupta

BELLA “It’s not him I’m worried about, Cole. There’s a reason I never wanted to step into the Mafia world.” I let out a ragged breath. “I fear that reason would catch up to me.” “I don’t know what reason you’re talking about, but you once told me you left your past behind a long time ago, so worrying about it now won’t do you any good.” I shook my head. “You’d be surprised to know how small the Mafia world is.” Before he said more and I got carried away, I asked, “Will you do me a favour?” “Spill.” “Take out the details of the working of the Vitale Crime Family, their alliances and also on Dom’s family while Val digs the dirt on Elias and David.” He gave a terse nod, and I walked back to my room. My real cell, which I hadn’t realised until now, had constantly been buzzing on the side table. I choked on air, noticing the name flashing on the screen—Mamma. Shit! I cleared my throat and answered it, “Mamma!” “There must be some good news, given how excited you sound.” I smiled to
