All Chapters of The Mafia Princess: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Nikolai “I’m sorry, boss. We’ve been careless.” Ivan tells me, his head bowed.It was his job to make sure the people around Hope were safe. But he let a part of the mafia to be close to Hope. I could kill him right now for that mistake. It might as well cost us Hope’s life. But I won’t do that. Hope has grown attached to him. And besides this, he’s never made a single mistake before. Each and every threat to Hope had been eliminated cleanly.But this is as complicated as it gets. That spy had definitely took advantage of Hope’s vulnerability. Even if we know his true identity, we can’t kill him just yet. Hope will wonder if he suddenly disappears. And she’s a smart kid, she’d know what happened to him.And I can’t just simply tell her that her boyfriend is a spy. That will break her heart as well.It’s a losing game for Hope.“Find out more. It

Nikolai  “Sir, we found her.” Ivan said as I was instantly on my feet and we got in the car.“Send our men immediately. Save Hope at all costs but make sure she’s not harmed in any way. I don’t care what happens to the guy. Fill his body with holes if that’s what it takes.” I tell him. My gun is in my hands. I’d blast his head myself as soon as I see him. That is if my men haven’t chopped off his limbs before I get there.“You heard the order.” Ivan instructed. The Russian mob is known for having the fiercest men. I’ve got the best people from the local gangs to spies, to agents, ex-soldiers, mercenaries. They’re all both effective and efficient. With good judgment and knows how to follow orders. They’re ruthless.“They were at the hunting grounds.” Ivan reported. “Our men has already gained visual.”I waited for a

Nikolai   “Double the security around the area,” I told Ivan as I headed towards the Lodge in the morning. “No, triple that.” I tell him. “I already tripled the shifts,” Ivan tells me. “Where’s Hope?” I asked him as we reached her room in the Lodge. I scanned the room and saw that her bed hasn’t been made yet. It means she hasn’t woken up for long and instantly left the room. “Where’s the Lady?” Ivan asks in his earpiece. “She’s in the music room.” Ivan relays to me. Ivan was right on my heels as I went to the Barn, where the music room was located. We have only reached the second floor and were rounding the hallway when we heard a loud crash. I rushed towards the music room as I heard Ivan request for backup. It’s almost impossible that someone was able to infiltrate the estate but we can’t afford to make any mistakes again. The door was open and I saw Hope in the middle of the room, which is hardly recognizable in its st

Nikolai   “Who is he?” I asked Ivan the next day, he would have done an extensive background investigation on him by now.“His name is Xavier Lee. Chinese by nationality, but born and raised in Los Angeles. Right now, he’s studying in New York and is in a vacation with his parents here in Miami.” Los Angeles. Where Hope used to live. “They went to the same school since they were five, up until they graduated high school. It’s safe to say that they were friends. They would often meet up when Xavier comes back to Los Angeles. There were reports of Hope visiting his house.” That caught my attention. “There was no romantic relationship between them.” Ivan continued, as if reading my mind. “In fact, Xavier Lee doesn’t seem to have had any relationships up until now.” “Any relationships?” I asked. “No sir, not even one night stands or any of that sort.” Ivan was trying so hard to keep his voice monotonous for the sake

Nikolai “Hey, Nikolai!” Hope says cheerfully.“Uhm, hi. Good morning.” I said, surprised by her sudden cheerfulness.“Why do you looked so shocked?” She says, laughing.“You seem so energetic” I tell her. It kinda sounds wrong to say I’m surprised she’s happy. Like she’s not supposed to be happy. When that is all I wanted her to be.“Well, I guess the beach gave me enough vitamin sea.”I raised an eyebrow at her. “Ha ha very funny.”“Come on, humor me for a bit. I’m never good at making jokes.”“More like you never did.” I corrected her. I’ve never heard a joke from her and now she comes up with a lame one.“That’s why I’m trying.” She said, giving me the puppy dog eyes.“Well, you should put in more effort on the delivery.” I tell
