All Chapters of Mafia Men II: Lorenzo's Gilded Cage: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

♕—Delilah "I killed him!" I cried into his chest, my body shaking, trembling in his hold. With tears streaming down my face, I could scarcely believe that I had taken a life - that I had killed someone for the first time in my life. Seeing people succumb to death, and Lorenzo killing people in front of me was one thing, but actually committing the act myself was an entirely different experience. I was shocked, guilt-ridden, and filled with regret for what I had done, and I knew then and there that I never wanted to repeat that experience.I burst into tears, wailing uncontrollably. Letting it all out, all of the guilt and despair I had been storing up inside. "Oh my god, I did it... I killed someone, I killed someone, Lorenzo..."He rubbed my back up and down, shushing me, his soft voice in my ear but I couldn't hear anything. Only one thought running through my mind—I've killed someone... I meekly pulled away and watched Alexander's body laying on the ground in its own blood, so st

♕—Delilah The whole nation was overcome with sorrow upon his passing. There remained so many unanswered questions about the cause of the fire. While it was widely suspected by the people that the Cosa Nostra may have had something to do with it, nobody had the audacity to say so out loud. Everyone was too terror-stricken at the thought that their voices could be the next to be silenced.The police and forensic scientist only found Alexander's and all the other soldiers' bones, nothing could be proven, and all the evidence has also been burnt. They tried to put back his skeleton in the most perfect way they could to give him a funeral because no one knew what kind of monster he was behind closed doors. He didn't deserve sympathy or respect but the world is unfair and all this respect felt like a disrespect to all his dead wives' memory. He deserved to be known as what he was, a psychopathic murderer. It had been two weeks since Alexander's death, and there still hadn't been any word

♕—Delilah The next night, I said goodbye to my family.I dully said goodbye to my family; the staff laboriously helped me pack my bags and Aurora's as well. Giving up my royal title and my duties came along with this decision, my sole intention being to go be with him.I finally let go of all the trappings of being Princess Delilah, the luxurious clothing, the excessive adornments, and for the first time, I was going to be simply Delilah. I ventured out by myself. I didn't have a Plan B, or a safety cushion. I just had myself to rely on. Feeling a sense of relief, I took the plunge.Aurora and I said our goodbyes, mama was all teary-eyed but she managed to keep her emotions in check in front of the others. My brother still graciously let me use the royal jet, he was still taking care of our finances, and he even gave us a nice little house in the suburbs to help me get off to a good start in life. Everything was still incredibly convenient and comfortable for me.I breathed a sigh of

♕—Delilah The second I stepped out of the shadow, someone slammed me into the wall and gripped my neck, "What the fuck are you doing here?!"My eyes squeezed shut on their own accord, my heart drummed against my ribcage as if to fulfill a thousand beats. He jerked my body once more and I finally opened my eyes, looking into his green ones, "I asked you a fucking question!" I tried to remember his name, I thought hard about every single name that had left Lorenzo's lips, then I did. Scott. Scott Mancini. "Lorenzo..." I managed to say, "Where is he?" He gripped my neck harder, shoving me back into the wall even more, "What about him?" I glared into his eyes, if he thinks he can scare me then he has another thing coming his way, "Lorenzo, where is he?" "And what do you fucking want from him? What more could you possibly fucking take from him?" I took in his words, his tone. He sounded protective of him and the way he talked made me realize that Lorenzo must be here, he was aliv

♕—Delilah “You look like you’ve been crying,” Virginia said as she whipped up our breakfast. I had been crying.My tears had been flowing freely. My eyes were puffy and swollen; I was desperate to keep my emotions contained, but Lorenzo's rejection had unleashed them all. I could feel the pain and sorrow within me, begging to be expressed.I was overwhelmed with grief. Even the thought of eating was too painful, as it brought forth tears that were welling in my eyes."A lot," I just answered. "It looks like it's time to make a decision," she spoke, her voice stretched taut with tension. "Maybe it's time to let go, perhaps he doesn't care anymore."I remained motionless, my gaze fixed on Virginia, my thoughts in turmoil. "We could always call it a day... I'm tempted, so tempted, to do so. Although I swore to stand by him no matter what, he's making it almost impossible for me to keep that promise.""Did you speak to him?" she inquired, a hint of tension in her voice."That's right, j
