All Chapters of Mafia’s Plaything (#1 of Mafia Series): Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

42. THE QUEEN'S INVITATION~STEPHANI abandoned the Lamborghini at The Collar and took a taxi instead. There was no more time to waste, I had to get to the boat soon. It was the only way to keep Pamela safe.The Ring was probably onto me by now and was on the lookout for an expensive purple vehicle. They had seen my face, they had also seen me hurl a knife at the sicko who preyed on girls.I had to commend this death squad for their efficiency. The Collar job had been quick and precise, with no witnesses and no overtime. It had been a quick and quick operation.Until a mistake was made. One of the death squad members dropped an important object during the mission. One man's error was another man's victory.Whoever called the phone was behind the massacre at the club or was just another henchman down the hierarchy of whatever lame club he was a part of.The cab stopped a few blocks from the commercial port area. I gave the driver some cash and got out of the vehicle. I continued the re

44. THE QUEEN'S DAUGHTER~STEPHANTo be honest, Elizabeth Croft was not what I expected. She was lively and bubbly sort of like a princess. I knew she was deliberately making her moves on me to get Pamela riled up.It was fun to see that Pamela could get jealous. Up until now, I had wondered if she was genuine about whatever she felt for me. But now I was a little convinced. A little.I knew that Pamela was plotting how she could escape me. That was why I paired her up with my right-hand man. I could not deny that I was enjoying her jealous rage."It's a nice boat, Baron Delmundo," Elizabeth complimented in her cheery tone."Please, call me Stephan, I think we are passed the formality," I said to her."Then call me Liz, it's what my friends call me," She responded coyly."So we are friends now?" I asked in amusement. Her mother just tried to kill me moments ago."I know that we got off on the wrong foot, My mother prefers to deal with her problems with a permanent solution," Elizabeth

46. THE QUEEN'S TALE~STEPHAN DELMUNDOI saw where Liz got her beauty from. Her mother was stunning to behold at her age. I was pretty good at guessing people's age but the mother of Elizabeth seemed ageless.It was hard to believe that she was Elizabeth's mother. She wore a white Chanel gown that flowed behind her and flat pumps. She looked like the mature version of her daughter.The room fell silent as she walked into the living room in a regal manner. I spotted an expensive pearl necklace around her neck and knew that she came from old money.Frank being the gentleman stood up out of respect and decency. Pamela stood up also but I did not, last time I remembered, this bitch sent a death squad after me. Therefore, I remained seated.The queen sat across from us. Frank and Pamela sat down. The tension in the air was tight, so tight, a razor could cut it. The silence was even more intense. Just how I like it.The queen had a permanent condescending look on her face. It felt like she

48.TWO ON TWO WITH THE QUEEN AND HER PRINCESS I~PAMELAWithout much thought, I hugged Stephan and held on to him tightly. He stroked my hair and held me firmly but gently. I swooned into his body and held on in contentment.Then he shattered my bliss into pieces with his next words."Pamela, There is also a rumor about her," I groaned."She never gives up and trust me when I say that she will be back," He told me as he stroked my hair."And of course, I shall be busy fighting off crafty Elizabeth Croft," He jokingly said."That is not funny Stephan," I whined and hit him lightly and playfully."Let us go somewhere private, Show me our room," He said huskily and a hot tingle coursed through me and down my spine.I grabbed him by the arm and pulled him after me in a very eager manner. I was shameless in using him as my shield against the Lady. I was afraid that I would succumb to her."I can taste your fear Pamela and they can taste it too, and they will exploit that to get what they c

50. A GAME OF ULTIMATE DESIRES II.~DELMUNDO Whatever sick joke Lady Croft was playing did nothing to amuse me. What she said last caught me off guard and I was not one to be easily shocked or rattled.I turned back and returned to my seat."I am not sure what I heard so I am going to give you a chance to prove me wrong," I said in a serious tone while staring straight at them."I knew your mother, Stephan, before you were conceived," Lady Croft repeated. Sometimes, her confidence annoyed it but it was what made her who she was."And you chose to reveal this to me after I refused your proposal?" I asked, trying to calm myself."I am a businesswoman, Stephan. No hard feelings," Croft said coldly.She was right, my feelings were all over the place. I chuckled bitterly and shook my head. This whole thing caught me off guard.A question popped up in my head."What is the role of the Marquis in all these and why did he have to die?" I asked Croft."His role was exactly how he played it,
