All Chapters of My Mafia Master: the alpha's dark desires: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Eliana POVTwo weeks. It was two weeks before I saw Nathan again, too nervous that my presence would get him hurt. Enzo had rocked up at our door a few days after my date with Nathan to pick up the flash drive, telling me that Luca had moved into his friend's flat in London and would be working from there for the next few weeks. He also conveniently told me it would be wise to avoid Nathan since packs in the UK weren't as tolerant of lone wolves. I had nodded my head and pretended that I'd given a shit, but in reality I had no plans on being Luca's pawn. After Cassie and my lengthy chat, we decided that the best way to be free of the men who thought they could rule us was to become financially independent. And we knew just how we were going to do it. "We'll have to pull in someone to help with the legal side of things," Cassie said, tapping her chin in thought. We were sitting across from each other on her bed while I tapped away on my laptop, creating the prototype of the app we

Eliana POVCassie and my laughter faded and we sunk lower into the hot tub, letting the bubbles hide our nakedness. "Ooh, you're in for it now," chuckled Ayla and I shut her out, not feeling like her running commentary on how much Cassie and I had fucked up. Two men stood in the shadows, arms crossed with identical scowls on their faces. They really didn't look happy. "Shouldn't you be trying to find some supermodel to screw, Vasilios?" Cassie grumbled, the alcohol making her brave. A gigantic man stepped forward into the light as I saw his eyes flash with anger, a soft growl exiting his lips."Do you think it's wise to make him angry?" I whispered to Cassie frantically, questioning her judgement. "What's he going to do? Threaten me again?" She had clearly lost her mind - Vasilios looked ready to kill her. But instead of shutting her smart mouth, she took it up a notch, standing up in the hot tub to reveal her naked body as she shouted at him, "huh, Vasilios? What are you going to

Eliana POVI dreamed of him that night. Of his hands roaming my body, of his breath against my neck, his lips on mine. It was intoxicating. And completely unwelcomed. Bleary eyed, I stumbled into the dining room where the staff which manned the accommodation had set up a buffet. Cassie was already seated at the table, a mug of coffee seemingly untouched in her hands as she stared down at it. “Good morning,” I croaked and pulled out a chair opposite her. There was no response from her. It was like she didn't even register that I was there, her mind in some far off place. I sat down and poured myself a cup of coffee from the pot which stood on an ornate tray in the centre of the large, oak table. “I didn't see you come in!” Cassie exclaimed, jumping slightly in her chair with fright.“I noticed,” I smiled weakly while taking a sip of coffee. “Are you okay?”She shook her head, her eyes brimming with tears before she quickly looked down at her coffee again. “He won’t release me fr

Eliana POV“Merry Christmas, Mom!” I greeted as her face filled the screen on my phone. “I know that tomorrow will probably be rather hectic, so I thought I would call you the day before Christmas instead.”“Merry Christmas to you too, Elie,” she smiled, her voice warm as it always was. “How has your holiday with Cassandra and her family been?” I moved to the window and turned the camera so she could see the snow covered landscape before I returned to my warm bed and slipped beneath the covers. “It's been great! Well, the being with Cassie part. Her alpha, his friend and her dad's girlfriend we could have done without - but we're stuck with them.”My mom winked at me exaggeratedly, before she chuckled and asked me quite seriously, “are the alphas cute at least? Do you at least have some decent eye candy for the duration of the holiday?”“Mom!” I exclaimed, horrified that my prim and proper mother even said the words ‘eye candy’. “What's wrong with just looking?” She responded innoc

Eliana POV“Escaping?” I’m sure my voice echoed the sheer confusion I felt at his admission. He didn’t seem the type to run away from a problem - unless that problem was Luca, and Luca was in the area so that would have been rather counter productive. Enzo’s sheepish smile returned and he motioned for me to walk with him, passing one of the pastries he had bought to me. “I’m actually hiding from my mother. I guess I’m also hiding from Luca, and I’m surprised at how well that has gone considering he is staying up at the villa with you and Vasilios.” I took a bite of the pastry, indulging in the way it melted in my mouth and left me craving more. My mind flashed briefly to Yvonne’s theory of food making everything better and I made a mental note to take a few pastries back for her to try. They were positively life changing. “So, why are you hiding?” I asked once my mind returned to Enzo. He looked around before he answered, as if his mother or brother would jump out at us from behi
