Three days later…

Emily POV

"I was scared you were going to blow up your cover, so I had to send forces on your behalf," Adam said, as we walked through the cell rooms.

"I have spent several years as an undercover agent and not once have I blown my cover, I don't intend to do it with the Moreno family," I replied.

We stopped at the solitary confined cell and Adams turned to look at me, worry written all over his face.

"Are you sure you can handle him? Dominic may be calm, but there is no saying what he is going to do to you after you betrayed his trust."

I understood Adam's worrying statement, the Moreno family must be out there looking to kill me, which is why I need to get the information from Dominic about his activities before leaving the country.

"You don't have to worry about anything Adams, I will be fine," I assured him. He nods his head in understanding and the cell door is opened.

"Good luck." He commented, before leaving. I took a deep breath and stepped into the cell.

My nose was filled with masculine sweat and across the corner of the room was a shirtless Dominic working out his biceps. He raised his eyes and looked up in my direction for a few seconds, before resuming his workout.

I walked towards the table, dropped my bag and sat down while watching him go intense on his workout. After some minutes, Dominic rose and grabbed a nearby towel to wipe his face. My eyes looked down at his chiselled abs and I got a flashback of our intimate moment in his office.

There is no doubt about his handsome features. Aside from his muscular body, his jawline gave him the look of a model.

"Why are you here? Haven't you done enough?" He asked, returning the towel to where he had kept them.

"I am here to question you Dominic, so I will advise that you take a seat." I ignored the hatred in his voice while pointing at the seat opposite mine.

"You do know that if my family finds you, they won't spare you right?" He asked, a profound smile making its way to his lips. "You know it is such a shame that after I defended you, this is how you pay me back."

"Have a sit Dominic, or I send the police officers to beat you up," I warned him.

Seeing the look of seriousness on my face, Dominic walked to the chair and sat down, his eyes did not move away from mine.

"I hope you know there is no one here, Emily, I can easily kill you in a matter of seconds." My heart begins to race with anxiety.

"I dare you to touch her and you will be dead." We both heard Adam's voice come through a speaker that was hanging across the wall in the room.

"Oh please, can't you take a joke for once in your miserable lifetime?" Dominic asked, leaning back on his seat with a smirk on his face.

"Let's get started then," I informed him and reached out to my purse to bring out a paper and pen.

"Tell me something Emily, how old are you?" I paused and looked at him with a surprise on my face.

"How do you know my name?" I asked.

"Emily Holmes, an undercover agent, who has taken down several Mafia lords and terrorists in the past seven years, I do know a lot about you." His explanation caused panic in my heart.

No one has been able to unravel my identity over the past few years, which makes me believe that Dominic might be the smartest criminal I have faced.

"Since you already know my name, let's get straight to business then. What do you know about the Lucchesi documents and how is your family involved in this deal?" I asked.

"If you think you are going to get a word from me, then you must be deceiving yourself, Emily. I won't give you the answer that you need if you don't tell me your age." He insisted.

"Fine, I am twenty-six years old." I started looking elsewhere other than his eyes.

"That is a good one, Emily." He replied, tapping his hand on the desk.

"Can we get back to business now?" I asked.

"Have you ever had sex before?" He asked, taking me off guard.

I tried to speak but there was no word forthcoming, his eyes showed he was amused by my reaction to his question.

"That explains why you were not a good kisser in my office."

I slammed my hand on the table, slowly getting irritated by his triggering statements, but closed my eyes and calmed my nerves down. I needed to be reminded once more that Dominic isn't like every other Mafia lord out there.

"What is the matter, Emily? Did I hit a nerve there?" He questioned with a clear mockery underneath his tone.

"You think this is some sort of game huh?" I asked him and leaned forward. "Let me tell you what these people are willing to do to you, they will kill you, confiscate your assets and get the rest of your members arrested. Now if you don't cooperate with me and give me the necessary information, that is the fate that awaits you." I expressed.

The silence in the room after my words, is filled with tension and I noticed he had stopped tapping his finger on the table. He also leaned forward, the same cocky smirk on his face.

"If you think I am going to give you any information, while these bastards watch from the stands, then you are wrong darling. I would rather die than tell you anything." He looked serious about his comment.

I took another long deep breath, slowly realising this wasn't working out as I had planned for it. I returned the paper to my purse and zipped it.

Getting up to my feet, I turned to leave the room but his voice stopped me halfway across the room.

"Since you haven't had sex before, I wouldn't mind being the first man to deflower you, sweetheart." He stated.

My hands were folded to a fist, but I did not want to be blinded by my anger. I stepped out of the room and closed the cells behind me. Adams rushed towards my direction, looking at me with concern.

"I want you to make sure that he gets the beating of a lifetime, I will be back in three days," I instructed him

    DOMINIC'S POV I paced the room like I was losing my mind—I was actually losing my mind. I held her phone in my hand, gripping it like my life depended on It. I had to find her before anything happened to her. I kept looking at my phone, hoping I'd get a call from Damien. “He made a mistake by tsking her. I'll kill him.” Victor looked up from The monitor and looked at me. “We have found something.” “What?” I moved quickly to look at the screen. “What did you find?” “We found a warehouse just outside of the city that belongs to Damien. I am almost positive That is where he is holding Emily.” “Gather All the men together so we can leave. I need to get Emily back today. I don't want her spending the night with that bustard.” “We go in as quietly As we can.” Barry said. “And we have to end this tonight. Damien should be dead tonight.” *** It was midnight when we pulled up to the warehouse. The atmosphere was thick with tension as we all stared at the building that loo

  • The Undercover Bride (Mafia Escapade)    Chapter 213

    DOMINIC'S POV It had been a long time since I'd had a moment to breathe. I'd not been out in a long time due to the chaos of the world around me. Emily had insisted that we take a break from it all and go somewhere quiet. I was skeptical because I knew that Damien was still out there and it was dangerous, but I figured that I'd be with her. I took her out of the city. It was an hour drive out of the city. I took her to a cozy and quiet restaurant. It was isolated and I knew that nobody knew that the place existed except through exclusive invite. I felt like it would be a nice time out. Anita was back at home, protected by guards and Victor and the rest of the men were with her. It was a very relaxing night and maybe that was why I let my guard down and how I could miss the signs. “It feels good to be out of the house for a while. I can't remember the last time I'd been out in the open.” Emily said as we ate our dinner. “Me too. It feels good. I know things have been a bit hect

  • The Undercover Bride (Mafia Escapade)    Chapter 212

    DAMIEN'S POV The hit from Dominic had taken more from me than I'd expected. We didn't expect the attack, and I lost too many men. Men that I could not afford to lose. I'd always known that going up against Dominic was going to be a hard thing. He had a reputation for being ruthless, and he never lost a war; that was why I'd gotten Steven Crowley to work with me, but I'd lost him, too. He wasn't even sure he wanted to go up against Dominic. He could walk away because he had nothing to lose except his life, and he stood to gain nothing because he'd only been working with me to pass away time. Taking my brother down was essentially something that I had to do alone and it was proving to be too difficult. Dominic didn't back down. Just when you thought you'd taken him down, he always came back harder and faster. He was bloodthirsty, and now he was out for mine. I was not scared of Dominic, though; I was still going to take my revenge for everything that he got that I deserved. He'd bee

  • The Undercover Bride (Mafia Escapade)    Chapter 211

    EMILY'S POV It had been almost a month since Damien vanished, and although Dominic appeared to be calm, I could see the restlessness in his eyes and the tension in his body. I also noticed that he began to wake up in the middle of the night soaked in sweat and, sometimes, gripping the sheets so tight that his knuckles turned white. He didn't give me so much information about what was going on, but I didn't need to be told that finding Damien was proving to be harder than we all thought it would be. I was in the library reading a book. Something I'd not done in a while, but started doing again because it helped distract me from the things that were happening around me. The door barged open and Dominic walked in looking very tired. It was already past midnight, and I'd been waiting for him. “What's wrong?” I asked. “Damien's men attacked one of my warehouses and killed about six of my men. It was an unexpected attack.” He said through gritted teeth. “What?” “Yeah, it seems

  • The Undercover Bride (Mafia Escapade)    Chapter 210

    DOMINIC'S POV The car roared to life as I sped out of the driveway. I could not believe that Damien had managed to slip through our fingers again. We had been so close to getting him, I could feel it. Then he eluded us once more. One thing was for sure, I was not going to let Damien get away with everything he'd done. My revenge was on its way. Victor was already at the warehouse when I arrived. He and the rest of the guys were already at work trying to locate Damien. “Have you found anything?” I asked. “Nope. I'm trying to search through the different airlines to see if we can find something. We know that it is very unlikely, especially with the fact that he has Crowley on his side, that they might have used other means or changed their identities.” Lorenzo explained. “Also, there might be a mole. Somebody who let Damien know that we were on to him.” Victor said. The whole place went quiet. One thing I hated with a passion was a mole. Apparently, people had not learnt thei

  • The Undercover Bride (Mafia Escapade)    Chapter 209

    EMILY'S POV I woke up to the soft rhythm of Dominic's heartbeat. His arms were wrapped tightly around me as though he was scared to let me go, scared that he would wake up and find me gone. The soft sheets tangled around our bodies. The air was thick with the remnants of the passionate night we'd shared. A night filled with love, desire and unsaid words. For the first time in days, I didn't go to sleep crying. Dominic stirred beside me and his eyes fluttered open. His fingers trailed up and down my arms softly. “Good morning.” He said, his voice husky and filled with sleep. “Not really. I don't want this moment to end.” I told him brushing a strand of hair away from his face. “Then it doesn't have to, we can make it last longer. We can enjoy the moment a little longer.” He said and pressed a kiss to my shoulders. I smiled up at him. We both knew that there was still a storm brewing. Daniella was still gone and Damien was probably somewhere planning to launch his next attack
