All Chapters of Sold To The Mafia Lord: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

*Natasha* When I saw Bruno attack a man because of a girl, I knew something wasn't right. This was so unlike him. The Bruno I knew would be quick to fire the girl even if she was in the right. But he was doing the opposite, protecting her. I felt a pang in my chest as I watched him lead her away. The Bruno I saw was one I had never seen before. His eyes had a fierce look, but when he looked at her, his gaze was as calm as the sea. I recognized the girl as the girl I had seen in his office the other day. When I entered the room, I saw the disappointment in Bruno's eyes, as if I shouldn't have been there. Like he didn't want me around, he almost went after her if he wasn't stopped by me. Seeing him protect her today, I knew my assumption was correct. He has fallen for her, but this was something I couldn't accept. No matter how hard I thought of it. I didn't want him looking at any other woman. I wanted Bruno all to myself. I don't mind having a relationship where we could only

*Bruno* "Am I just a plaything to you?" Lucia asked me. I was shocked at her question. And that was when it clicked. She must have overheard my conversation with Natasha. But I made it clear that wasn't. She pressed her lips together. Though she tried to keep a straight face as if she didn't care about whatever response I was going to give, her eyes gave her away. "Did you stay to listen to me after listening to Natasha?" I asked her. I wanted to confirm. She moved her eyes from side to side. "What was the use?" She asked instead of answering. "Is that even important right now? Why can't you just answer me? Is it because she is right? I'm a plaything, after all. And here I thought we were friends," she said, trying to look nonchalant. But I knew it was the opposite. And here I was thinking she thought we were lovers or something. "Your silence already says everything," she said, making the move to stand, but I held her hand and dragged her back so she would sit back on the chair. "

*Bruno* I didn't want Lucia to go anywhere with Natasha. Because honestly, I didn't trust Natasha. I have known her for a very long time, and she wasn't one to give up on something. I had made it clear where she stood. I didn't know where she got the guts from the other day she held me back from going away. I knew she was aware that I had no such feelings whatsoever with her. I was always clear with her. Whatever we had had no title. She made me feel good, and I did the same. There were no emotions attached to it. When I saw her walk into my office, I made up my mind to throw her out if she sprouted nonsense from her mouth. Over the past few days, Lucia and I have been on good terms, and the last thing I wanted was for someone to say anything to pull us apart. Lucia was opening up to me. She had taken the lead the other night. I had seen the part of her that I didn't know existed. The part that was fierce and dominant. We had made out immensely on the sofa. I had to confess that

*Lucia* I had another plan for Natasha. I wasn't going to play the nice girl and forgive her. Never. She has hurt me too much for me to let it go. The drive back to the club was silent. I leaned into my seat and closed my eyes. My body felt sore all over. Opening my eyes felt like a chore. Bruno understood and didn't try to strike up a conversation with me. He didn't say anything aside from apologizing from time to time. I couldn't help thinking about what could have happened if he hadn't come to save me. Once again, I owe him my life. I turned and opened my eyes for a few seconds to stare at him. He was still very much angry. I adjusted and closed my eyes, not sure who exactly he was angry at. Was Natasha because of what she did to me, or was it himself? I couldn't help but wonder. He pulled up beside the building. The sun was beginning to set. Its golden rays were cast on the side of the building. Bruno stepped out of the car and walked around to open the door. He carried me o

*Bruno* I didn't know what went through Lucia's mind when she saw the kids. She thought I was holding them hostage and using them to work in a drug house. I wanted to laugh at what went through her mind. I hugged the childrens. Their warmth bathed me. Hugging these childrens was one of the things I loved doing best in this life. They were lovely kids. Lucia froze where she stood. She probably wasn't expecting them to come to hug me. She had misunderstood, and I understood perfectly. I counted the children, making sure all twelve were here with me. They were all here, but one person was still missing. I raised my head and searched around. I knew Tina did not like to be around the crowds at all times. She liked to be at the side, watching as other children got close to me. But I didn't want that. I wanted to be close to all of them. Especially Tina. She has been through a lot at a young age, and all I can do is draw her closer to me. I called out to her. She was leaning on the wall.
