The Undercover Bride (Mafia Escapade) chapter 15: Revenge Plan
Maximus’s povWhen I arrived at Jace's apartment, the weather had become warm once more, and I helped Jace turn on the air conditioner while heading to his room. Jace was an adept reader who hated being disturbed, but I needed his help if I ever wanted to get the deeds.Upon stepping into his room, there was no sign of Jace. The tables were littered with books. Typical of him to always be unorganized.While I went down to get the pillows, I noticed something unfamiliar. I looked to see Jace's slippers at the front of his bathroom. Jace never leaves these things in the bathroom before, so what was going on? I made my way slowly to the door of the bathroom, where I leaned closer to get a grasp of what was happening.The shower was running and it appeared that someone was having their bath. The moment I opened the door, I gasped in disbelief at the scene of horror displaying itself right before my eyes.I was staring at the lifeless body of Jace, who appeared to have been drowned in

Maximus’s Pov I stepped into the company at the strike of midnight, fully aware that it was going to be a tough confrontation with Dominic. The moment I pulled the door to my office open, I found Dominic sipping a cup of Hennessy with several documents on the table and a smile plastered across his face. "You know, I never thought you would have the balls to make a move; I give it to you. I never expected you to go for Jace.." I commented, standing by the door. "Oh, so you now choose words to use now? Jace deserves death. He was the brain behind your action, and I figured it was perfect. I ended him." Dominic said. I watch him hold a paper in his hand. "Right here in my hand is the deed to the company. You asked for it, now I have brought it for you." I stared at him for a moment, wondering what he was up to. "You must think I am a fool, Dominic. I know your tricks and I know you won't be willing to sacrifice your last hope to secure the company from me easily. So what do you hav

Dominic's PovOnce the door to the elevator opened, we rushed outside the company to find Maximus already surrounded by the police. "It's over, Maximus; just give it up. Your time has come to an end." I yelled out. "You had this all planned out didn't you?" He asked, his hands raised in the air. "You failed to prepare properly. I have been planning a raid on you for the past weeks, watching your every move instantly. I want you to know that when the time comes, the law will always catch up with you."One of the policemen with the cuffs stepped forward and held his hands. In a matter of seconds, I watched him pull out a gun from the police hand and I felt something hit me in the chest.My vision became blurry as I also watched Maximus fall to his knees. I looked at my hand and realized he had shot me with the gun."Dominic! You will be alright." Scorpion's right-hand man was beside me. I couldn't think of anything in the world other than staying in the arms of Emily at that moment.

Emily's PovThe moment I opened the door, Dominic's body lay there completely lifeless as I approached him. Some of the nurses were trying to get me away, but no one was separating me from the love of my life."He can't possibly be dead." I struggled through their grip. "He needs to stay alive, for the sake of Anita and... myself." Tears dropped down my eyes, as I stared at his body. Even though he was my abductor, I still did not want him dead because of how much he loved his daughter. "Dominic, please! You always say you would never leave my side. I need you to keep that promise please." I looked up at him, his eyes shot close. I couldn't contain myself anymore, I couldn't even breathe. It almost felt like a part of me was moving away with Dominic and I was on a thin line between sanity and delusion.As I lay beside him, my tears reducing to sobs, my ears picked up the sound of the monitor beeping over and over again. I looked up to see the beeping sound coming from the machine at

EmilyThe route to the graveyard was on the outskirts of the city. Dominic suggested we bring flowers and dress in black attire to pay tribute to Maximus. I may not like the idea of seeing Maximus's grave, but one thing was certain, he changed everything about Dominic's family.Making our way through the cemetery, we arrived at his graveyards minutes later, and I was particularly surprised by the sight of a familiar face kneeling before his grave."Maria?" I called and she turned around to look at us."Oh hey!" She said getting up to her feet and wiping the tears in her eyes. She rushed to engulf me in a warm hug and we remained in that position for some time."What are you doing here?" I asked the moment we broke free from the hug."I came to drop some flowers at his grave," Maria revealed with teary eyes. I couldn't make up the reasons for her tears; they didn't make any sense to me."I know it sounds ridiculous after everything he has put me through, but then I have a confession to

Emily's Pov "How the hell haven't you reached out to me!" He screamed through the phone, forcing a smile out of my lips. "Let's just say my abductor isn't such a bad person after all," I said, turning around to look at Dominic, who was gazing in my direction."Cut that nonsense Emily, don't tell me you are beginning to develop a huge crush on Dominic?" He asked."I never said I had a crush on him, I just don't want things to escalate more than they already are. The death of Maximus, the notorious Mafia leader, was done by him, and if you can remember, Maximus was also on our radar as well." I explained."Then allow my men to handle Dominic, let us put an end to these bastards that call themselves Mafia lords." I closed my eyes, taking a deep breath and turning around once more to look at Dominic.There was no doubt that I would wish for him to be arrested, but the foresight of Anita crying over her jailed father did several things to my mind. I don't want the young girl to be witho

Emily's povWhen we arrived at the penthouse, it felt strange being amid the Mafia gang and being comfortable. They were jovial and fun and surprisingly highly civil, even though I knew they had several blood stains on their hands."So Emily, we have been wondering how you carry on your act. I mean how are you so subtle to the Mafia lords that they don't even sniff any suspicion?" One of the men asked."That is the most useless question I have heard in several years," Dominic responded, evoking laughter from everyone."Disguise..." I mentioned, causing everyone to stop."You don't have to reveal your secret to us. It should remain with you..." I stopped Dominic as he was speaking."Do you think after helping you kill Maximus, saving my sister and also speaking to the agent that they will let you go, do you think that they will still be on my side?" I asked."But you are still an agent though. You have their badge and you are also a highly respected member amongst them." Barry responds

Emily's Pov My heart was pounding really fast as Dominic and I moved through the hallway. How did they get hold of Maria? These and many more questions bothered me, as we made a turn into his office, where Dominic would eventually sit down. Barry burst into the room barely seconds later with two men who were handcuffed. They were made to kneel down before Dominic, while I watched on. "I asked both of you to take good care of my daughter and Maria and what did you do? You left both of them to play video games." His voice was cold and calculative. "We are sorry boss, it's just that staying indoors all day long and having to watch over them bored us all out. Maria and Anita were becoming close friends and we did not think the intelligence would come for them." I heard the chair moved backwards and Dominic walked forward to meet them with his hands right in the pocket. My curiosity rose over the roof, wondering how it was even possible that the security intelligence had gotten ther

The Undercover Bride (Mafia Escapade) Chapter 142
DOMINIC'S POV The smell of blood and gunpowder filled the air as I stood in the middle of the chaos that had just occurred. We had taken back my warehouse, but of course, the cost of it was the lifeless bodies that were littered all over the floor—some of the men from my side and the majority from the Mendez Cartel. I had won this part of the war, but I could not dwell on it for long because I knew worse attacks were on the way. Victor walked up beside me, wiping blood off his hands with a piece of clothing. We were both covered in blood. His expression was unreadable, but his eyes carried the same burden of fatigue that I felt in my bones also. “We've won this one.” He remarked. I nodded, still looking at the havoc before me. Williams had been nowhere to be found causing me to be disappointed. Williams was a desperate man… he was desperate for revenge and that was what made him more dangerous and a big threat to me—one that needed to be eliminated. “How many men did we lose?” I
The Undercover Bride (Mafia Escapade) Chapter 141: Nightmare
DOMINIC'S POVThe cold air bit into my skin as I stood on the balcony of Victor's mansion. I was exhausted, but my mind was too restless to let me sleep. The moon cast its pale glow over the estate, making it look especially magnificent. The view reminded me of Emily, I wish she was here so we could enjoy the scenery together.I let out a sigh. Tomorrow would be a bloodbath. Many lives would have to be taken to recover the warehouse that was taken from me. If Williams and his accomplice thought they could launch attacks on me with no consequences, then they had another thing coming. They thought I was scared of them. I wasn't—not anymore. I'd had many battles, but this was more important because it felt like I had something to lose. I had to protect Emily and Anita at all costs. ***EMILY’S POV I woke up drenched in sweat and breathing very hard as a result of the nightmare I'd just had. It had been so vivid, I was shocked to find out that it was a dream, but I was glad it was just
The Undercover Bride (Mafia Escapade) Chapter 140 : Scared
EMILY’S POVMy phone rang and I rushed to answer it, knowing it was Dominic. I had been waiting for his call since he left. “Dominic…” I whispered into the phone, my voice shaking. “My love. I am here. I arrived at Victor's house an hour ago. I am exhausted.” He told me and I could hear the fatigue in his voice. A sob escaped my mouth even though I tried to stop it, the worry I had been feeling finally taking over. “I'm so glad you're okay. I was so scared. How's everything down there?” There was a heavy silence, almost as though he was trying to figure out whether to tell me or not. “There is nothing for you to be worried about. Everything is under control.” His voice was filled with confidence, but I did not believe him. I knew that even if I pushed for a response, I wasn't going to get anything more from him. For now, I was just grateful to be hearing his voice. “Okay. Be careful.” “I will. How are things over there?” “Everything is fine. I've been shopping with the girls…
The Undercover Bride (Mafia Escapade) Chapter 139: Strategy
EMILY’S POVI watched as Dominic packed his bags, wishing he didn't have to go, but I knew that he did not have a choice. We shared a long, passionate kiss, and he moved away from me. The look in his eyes sent chills down my spine. “I should not be away for long, maybe a week. I'll call you when I land.” “Okay,” I told him weakly, knowing that there was nothing more to say. He nodded and then he walked out of the room. The moment he left the room, an unsettling feeling washed over me. I knew Dominic was strong, but this wasn't just any war that he was fighting. He was going against people who wanted his blood in return for the life that he took for them. That was practically a death sentence. I wrapped my arms around myself, trying to get rid of the chills that took over my body that had nothing to do with the temperature. This was the part that I hated… the uncertainty, the waiting, not knowing how things would go from here. A knock on the door brought me out of my thoughts. “C

DOMINIC'S POV“They've launched an attack.” Barry and Ezra came to my office with the bad news the next morning, ruining my good mood and high spirits. “What did they do?” I asked through gritted teeth. “They intercepted one of our shipment drops and killed three of our men,” Ezra said. “Fuck, they've already begun to strike,” I said, feeling anxious because I did not have a plan yet. Just as I was trying to think about what to do, my phone rang with a call from Victor. I answered immediately. “I just heard what happened.” He said. “You need to come down to Italy right away. I've got thirty allies and we need to come up with a plan.” My jaw clenched and my mind was racing. Going to Italy meant leaving my family behind and who was going to be checking on things while I was gone? But I had to go, I needed everything Victor had to offer to help me fight this. I could not do this on my own. I needed the strategy and most importantly, the allies. “I'll be there tonight,” I assured h

EMILY’S POVLaying the warmth and comfort of Dominic's embrace was the only thing that was keeping me sane. I felt very anxious because I knew the worst was yet to come. Dominic tried to reassure me, but in his eyes, I could see his worry. He might not want to admit it, but this fight was bigger than anything that he'd ever faced. He was carrying the weight of a war that could cost him everything. I buried my face in his chest, grateful to be hearing the steady beat of his heart. It was comforting. It reassured me that he was here—for now. The Mendez Cartel was very brutal. It would not take much for them to take his life and that was the biggest thing that frightened me. The fear of losing him to the cold hands of death. I had just admitted that I loved him and I meant it, which meant the thought of something happening to him scared me. I pressed closer to him, inhaling his intoxicating scent. I didn't want him to know how scared I was, I didn't want him to worry. “What's wrong?”
The Undercover Bride (Mafia Escapade) Chapter 136
DOMINIC'S POVEmily looked at me like I was the devil and that scared me, but I needed her to see who I really was. Would she still love me or would she walk away? The question had been plaguing my mind for the whole time since she told me that she loved me. Maybe she only loved the parts of me that I let her see, not who I really was. “A heart? I am a killer, Emily. I have no heart.” “But you claim to love. How can you love me when you don't have a heart?” “What is it that you don't understand? I have a heart when it comes to you and my daughter, but nobody else. You're trying to make me into a man I am not, so maybe it is you who doesn't really love me because you refuse to accept me.” I told her harshly. She stumbled back as though I'd slapped her across the face. “I accepted you.” She whispered brokenly. “You don't accept me. You look at me like I am a monster when you know this is the life I live, the only life that I've known. But you judge me for it, make me feel like I am
The Undercover Bride (Mafia Escapade) Chapter 135
SOFIA'S POV I didn't breathe easy until Dominic had left. It was always easier to put a brave face on around Emily because I didn't see her as harmful, but Dominic was dangerous and unpredictable. He could do whatever he wanted and have no real consequence for it. I remember the stories my father told about Dominic and how he was a dangerous man that nobody wanted to cross. I was surprised when I heard that my father had gone to war with the Moreno Organization. He was right, Dominic was not to be fucked with because he killed him. I spent the time after he left wondering what type of deal Dominic had with my brother and what Dino would have to do to save me. I hoped that it wasn't something that was crazy, but if it was I trusted Dino to find a way around it. Maybe I should just sit back and let Dino do his work. That was my safest bet right now. The more I thought about escaping, the more I knew I was just kidding myself. I did not have the strength or the expertise to even pull
The Undercover Bride (Mafia Escapade) Chapter 134:
DOMINIC'S POVAfter Emily left, Ezra walked in with the news that I had been waiting for the entire day. “The blackbloods have a very terrible history with the Mendez Cartel. It turns out that there was a deal gone wrong some time ago and Carlos had many of Luca's men at the time killed, including his brother. Luca died trying to seek vengeance. To be honest, if you hadn't killed him, Carlos would have done it with the way things were going.” Ezra explained. “I know for a fact that the Black Bloods still want revenge.” “Thank you, Ezra. That will be all.” I said, dismissing him. I dialled Dino immediately. “Hope you are ready to have a serious conversation? Remember, the clock is ticking, and your sister is at risk.” I told him. “I'm listening to you.” He said through gritted teeth. “I'm at war with the Mendez Cartel, and I'm getting as many people to make an alliance with me so we can take them down once and for all.” “The Mendez Cartel? My father tried for years to take them
