The Mafia’s Price:Bound By Debt Chapter 22
Elena’s POV I raised an eyebrow, unsure of where he was going with this. What did he want from me?“I'm willing to offer you a place by my side for the main time though,” he said, his voice low and smooth. “You can help me make decisions.”I was taken aback by his offer, shocked by what he had just said. Me? Help him make decisions? It seemed absurd, judged by my situation. “But there's a catch,” he said, his eyes narrowing slightly. “You have to prove yourself to me. You have to show me that you're loyal, that you're trustworthy.”I hesitated, unsure of what to say. Part of me was tempted by his offer. I was keen to learn more about who Dominic truly was, to understand what made so tick.But another part of me was screaming to get out, to escape from this place and never look back.“What do you say, Elena?” Dominic asked. “Are you in?”I took a deep breath, weighing my options. I could refuse, try to find another way to escape. Or I could accept, play along and see where it took me

Selena’s POV I walked into the mansion, my heels clicking on the marble floor. I had stepped out for just a few hours, and I couldn't shake the feeling that something was off.As I walked, I noticed that the mansion was spotless, as always, but there then I noticed some kind of disorder. The maids were scrubbing around, cleaning up what looked like the remnants of a party. I frowned, confusion etched on my face.I hadn’t been home for just some hours, and it seemed like a lot had happened in my absence. What had happened while I was away?I quickened my pace, my curiosity increasing. I approached one of the maids, a young girl who was scrubbing the floor with a mop.“Hey, what's going on?” I asked her, trying to sound casual despite the growing feeling of unease in my stomach.The maid hesitated, looking around nervously before leaning in close. “There was a celebration here, Miss Selena,” she whispered. “Mr. Dominic and his men…they were celebrating something.”I raised an eyebrow,

Selena’s POV I walked down the hallway, lost in thought, my heels clicking on the floor.But my thoughts were interrupted by a voice behind me.“Madam Selena.” I heard a familiar voice call out to me.I turned to see James, one of Dominic's most trusted men, if not the most trustworthy. He was standing right behind me. He was a tall, muscular man with a rugged face and a sharp jawline. He was putting on a black suit and His eyes seemed to bore into mine, as if he could see right through me.“What's up, James?” I asked, trying to sound casual as I didn’t want him to notice the unease in my expression as I had just been brought back from the land of thoughts by his voice. James glanced around nervously before leaning in closer. “I didn’t see you around during the celebration, I believe boss must have told you the reason for the celebration.”“Yes he did James, I stepped out for personal reasons. I’ve seen Dominic, and he has told me the reason for the little celebration,” I responded

Selena’s POV I stormed down the hallway, and I could feel my heart racing, my breath coming in short gasps. I was trying to hold back my emotions, but it was of no use.As I reached my room, I slammed the door shut behind me and leaned against it, trying to catch my breath. I felt like my lungs were going to explode, like my emotions were going to burst out of me at any moment.I took a deep breath and attempted to calm myself down, but it was no use. I felt like I was fucking losing control, like I was running out of breath.I walked over to the window and stared out at the gardens below. I could see the perfectly manicured lawns, the colorful flowers, the sparkling fountains. It was all so beautiful, so peaceful.But I didn't feel that peace. I felt angry, hurt, betrayed. I felt like Dominic had lied to me, like he had deceived me all these years even though he never for once, mentioned such things I still felt that way.I felt he should have known, should have figured it out that

Dominic’s PovI watched in shock as Selena stormed out of my officeher anger and frustration was unbelievable. I was taken aback by her reaction, stunned by the depth of her emotion. What was going on? Why was she so fucking upset?I leaned back in my chair, my mind racing with questions Selena had always been my rock, my loyal right-hand woman. She had never questioned my decisions before, never shown such open disagreement.What the fuck changed? I was so fucking suprised, what’s actually going on with her?I thought back to our conversation, trying to point out what had actually triggered her to react like that. Was it the fact that I had shown Elena to everyone in the house and asked them to treat her with respect? That I had elevated her above the other prisoners?But why the fuck would that even bother Selena? She had never shown any interest in the prisoners before. She had always been focused on the business, on helping me run the organization.Unless…..maybe…… she felt th

Dominic’s povI leaned back in my chair, studying Selena’s expression. She was hiding something, but I couldn't quite figure out what it was.“Selena, come on,” I said, trying to convince her into opening up. “We've known each other for years. I can tell when something’s bothering you.”Selena’s expression didn’t change, but I saw a faint glimpse of emotion in her eyes. “Is it Elena?” I asked, my voice low. “Are you jealous of her?” I continued, trying to bring the words out of her mouth.Selena’s eyes flashed, and for a moment, I thought I saw what seemed to look like anger. But then, her expression smoothed out, and she laughed out loud. “Jealous of her?” Selena repeated, her voice dripping with scorn. “Don’t be ridiculous, Dominic. I’m just worried about you and the organization, like I said earlier.”I raised an eyebrow, Selena was a terrible liar, and I knew she was hiding something. But I also knew that pushing her too hard would only make her pretend even further.“Okay, Sele

Dominic’s PovI walked into Elena’s room, my mind still occupied with the silly and surprising conversation with her father. I had so many questions for her, so many things I wanted to know if she’s willing to open up. And I knew that Elena was the only one who could provide me with the answers I was looking for, I hope so.Elena looked up as I entered, her eyes flashing with a mixture of fear and anger. She was sitting on the bed, her back against the headboard, and she looked like she had been crying for quiet some time.I sat down next to her, my eyes locked on hers. “We need to talk,” I said, with a calm and gentle voice.Elena nodded, her eyes never leaving mine. “About what?” she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.I took a deep breath, trying to gather my thoughts. “About your father,” I said finally. “is he really your father? Because I don’t know why he would be so willing to sacrifice you for his debt.”Elena’s eyes flashed, and for a moment, I thought I saw a glimmer

Elena PovI lay in bed, as I couldn’t get over the shock and confusion that was going on in my mind. I couldn’t believe what had just happened. Dominic of all people, the merciless and cruel man who had taken me from my father without hesitation, had just shown me kindness and compassion.I thought back to our conversation, trying to process everything he had said. He had promised to protect me, to keep me safe from my father’s cruelty.He had told me that he wasn’t a monster, that he was a man who cared about the people around him.But how could that be? I had seen the way he treated his guards, the way he spoke to them with contempt and disdain. I had seen the way he looked at me, like I was nothing more than a goddamn prisoner who had been abandoned by her family. And yet, when he spoke to me just now, his voice was soft and gentle. His eyes were kind and compassionate and portrayed deep affection. It was like he was a different person Entirely. I didn’t know what to make of i

Elena’s POVI walked down the hallway, my feet carrying me towards Sophia’s room. I had been thinking about our last conversation, and I wanted to talk to her again.As I approached her room, I heard the sound of her voice, but it was low and secretive. I hesitated for a moment, wondering if I should interrupt her, or I should just head back to my room and come back when she’s less busy, but then I suddenly heard my name.“Elena….” Sophia said, her voice barely above a whisper.My heart skipped a beat as I froze, my ears perked up to listen. Who was Sophia talking to? And why the fuck was she mentioning my name? What business do I have to do with the so-called person? I leaned in closer, trying to hear more of the conversation, with whosoever she’s talking to. But Sophia’s voice was too quiet, and I couldn’t hear anymore of the conversation or what exactly she was saying to the person on the other end.Just as I was about to give up and knock on the door, Sophia’s voice grew louder.

Luca’s POV I stormed into the room, my face red with rage, my eyes blazing with fury. “You told me it was a sure thing!” I roared, slamming my fist on the table. “You fucking told me Dominic would be eliminated!”My men bowed before me, knowing better than to disobey me when I was in a rage. “I-I’m sorry, sir,” one of them stammered. “We didn't expect him to…”My anger boiled over, and I cut off the man’s words with a swift swipe of my hand. “Enough!” I roared. “I would rather not hear your excuses. I want to know what we can do to take down Dominic. Now.”The room fell silent, with all eyes fixed on me. My men knew that making me angry and in rage was a dangerous game, and they were reluctant to speak up.I swept the room with my gaze, my eyes lingering on each of my men. “I want to know everything,” I growled. “I would like to know his schedule, his habits, his weaknesses. I would like to know everything that can help us take him down.”One of my men, a tall, lean figure with a sca

Elena’s POVI watched as Dominic’s expression changed, anger and rage creeping into his voice.I knew that he was a dangerous man, and he was going to do everything in his power to find out who was behind the plot.I felt a shiver run down my spine as I thought about what could have happened.If Dominic had believed that I had escaped, he would have been distracted, and whoever was behind the plot could have succeeded in their plan to eliminate him.I looked up at Dominic, “well, I’m glad you didn’t believe it,” I said, my voice barely above a whisper.Dominic’s expression softened, and he reached out, his hand brushing against mine. “I know you’re not stupid, Elena,” he said. “I know you wouldn't try to escape again, when you know it’s fruitless.”I felt a surge of emotion at his words, and I looked away, trying to compose myself. It was strange, but Dominic's words had made me feel…seen. Like he actually fucking understood me.I took a deep breath, attempting to push aside my emotio

Dominic’s POVI walked into my office, and closed the door behind me with a soft click. I made my way over to the bar, pouring myself a glass of whiskey as I sat down in my chair.I took a sip of the whiskey, feeling the burn all the way down my throat. It was precisely what I needed to clear my head after the night’s events.Just as I was starting to relax, there was a knock at the door. “Come in,” I called out.The door opened, and James walked in. “Boss, I'm glad you’re back,” he said, his expression serious.I raised an eyebrow, my mind immediately flashing back to Elena, as that was the reason James left the hotel in the first place. “What's wrong?” I asked.James hesitated for a moment before speaking. “It’s Elena, boss.”I frowned, my grip on the glass tightening. “What do you mean?” I asked.James shook his head. “I’m not entirely sure, boss. But I do know that she didn’t try to escape. In fact, she’s been in her room the whole time.”I raised an eyebrow, confusion etched on m

Dominic’s POVI walked out of the bathroom, my eyes scanning the room. And that was when I saw them. Six men, all dressed in black and wearing masks, were scattered around the room. They were all armed, and they looked like they fucking meant business.I didn’t hesitate. I raised my gun and started firing, taking out the men one by one. They didn’t stand a chance. I was a mafia boss, and I knew how to handle myself in a fight.Before they could process what was happening, they were all down. As the last man fell to the ground, I walked over to him and stood over him, my gun still pointed directly at his head. “Who sent you?” I growled, my voice cold and deadly.The man looked up at me, his eyes filled with fear. “P…please,” he stuttered. “Don’t kill me.”I raised an eyebrow, my grip on the gun tightening. “You should have fucking thought of that before you came after me,” I said, my voice dripping with malice.But then, something made me held back my hand. Maybe it was the fear in th

Dominic’s POVI stepped out of the mansion, the cool night air enveloping me. My mind was still filled with the conversation with Elena, her words echoing in my head like an alarm.I couldn’t quite get over the feeling of pity that I felt towards her. As I walked towards the car, my driver, a well-built, huge muscular man, nodded at me. “Boss, we’ve got quite a situation,” he said, his voice low and urgent.I raised an eyebrow, curiously, as I listened because I was ready for anything and at any time. “What kind of situation?” I growled.The driver hesitated as he looked around before speaking up. “There’s been a rumor, boss. A rumor that your rival is making moves, trying to take over our territory.”My eyes narrowed, This was not a threat I took lightly. My rival had been trying to bring me down for years but failed. I’ve always managed to stay one fucking step ahead. But this time, something felt different. This time, I felt like I was walking into a trap, something didn’t just f
