All Chapters of Bound To The Ruthless Alpha Mafia: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Alpha Luciano's POVThe announcement brought on a range of reactions from shock to outrage. I had thought about it hard. It was the sensible thing to do. If I couldn't protect them, what was the point?"Those who want to remain are free to do so and those who want to leave will also be compensated for their time, efforts and sacrifices they made…"The women looked between themselves. "If you wish to leave, I will not judge you. You have all tried your best and I am humbled by your sacrifices. Now if you wish to leave, simply move to this side and Mikah will take down your information and discuss your settlement plan with you. If you wish to leave this pack so that you will be able to start your life afresh, I will foot the bill."Giulia stood up first and walked straight to Mikah without a backwards glance at me. I looked at the remaining eight of them and one by one they stood up and left until they were just four left sitting. The other five chose to leave instead.I should have do

Arabella's POVTime lost value and blurred together. I didn't know if it was minutes, hours or days since my torture had begun. I could no longer scream, my throat was hoarse and my voice was gone. I held on to consciousness by a thin rope. Or more appropriately consciousness held onto me. Anytime I was on the brink of losing consciousness, he made sure to bring me back. To stimulate my senses again. To make sure I was aware and fully cognizant as the pain threshold mounted.He had a lot of experience with this it would seem. Because he continually kept me on the brink, I lost all sense of self. I think I would have told him all I knew already if I didn't hate him as much as I loved him.The little food in me came up as I projectile puked. Some still got on my clothes soiling them.The pain soared and lulled. Rising in waves and carrying me along as an unwilling passenger.The pain stopped and the absence of pain seemed like a different pain on its own because I knew the relief was o

Alpha Luciano's POV.Since my parents' death, I have never been more scared in my entire life. Arabella was still unconscious, her body hooked to an IV. I let my hand drift to her belly. My child. I was going to become a father.My hand trembled and I was surprised to feel my eyes water. Since that day, I had never cried. I wasn't weak, I was strong, I was fury, I was rage made flesh, and I was going to be a father within a span of months.I swore the doctor to secrecy but the news would eventually spread because a pregnancy couldn't be hidden for long. Uncle Tommaso and I had spoken about it. About how I needed an heir and soon. In theory, it was pretty clinical and straightforward. Fuck around, get an heir and move on with my life having satisfied the demands of the pack. But seeing Arabella's dark hair strewn over the pillow, her eyes shut and her lips drawn into a pout, and my child growing inside her, I felt something thaw within me. I felt guilty. Guilty for all I had done t

Alpha Luciano's POVI found myself shaken after that moment with Arabella. I wanted to be a better person, I realized. I wanted to be a person my child could look up to. But first, I had to ensure that all my enemies were handled. "Vitalio's next shipment of people comes in tomorrow. The bidding has already begun on the dark web." Mikah said, showing me secure footage for the auction gotten from one of the sights by my hackers. The man was despicable. I could see some underage girls being paraded about naked like they were livestock. I comforted myself with the fact that even if I hadn't been after Vitalio before, I would have tried my best to stop this trade. It was disgusting."And the men are in place?" I wanted to go myself, it had been a while since I had gone on a run with my men but I didn't like the idea of leaving Arabella all alone without sufficient security personnel. Once her pregnancy was officially announced, I could put as much as a company of soldiers outside her ro

Luciano's POVI was going over my pack's security detail with Cross yet for some reason, all I could think about was Arabella. Last night felt different. Different from any other thing we had done together. I wanted to get it off my mind but the more I tried to dismiss it, the more firmly entrenched it became. "Alpha, what about the borders?"Cross's voice brought me back to reality. I had drifted off mid-speech. Perfect. As though I was still a hormonal teenager who'd just discovered sex for the first time only this was way different from that. Save from the fact that I was no longer a teenager, it wasn't just the sex because when I woke up this morning and saw, and held her in my arms, I had felt something strange that I still couldn't quantify. "The Creoles will want to start off skirmishes with us here, here and here." I pointed to the locations on the map I held. "We do not know their plans so try to capture at least one of their commanding attacking officers, maybe he'll be ab
