All Chapters of The Mafia Kings Want their Woman Back: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Acker’s POV“Javier, report,” my voice was akin to steel as I talked with my one and only friend.“Relax, Acker,” Javier sounded calm and I could hear the sounds of cars passing by his location as he replied to me. “I have been keeping an eye on her since I arrived. And none of the men have seen or heard from Cross either.”I grit my teeth, squaring my jaw.That wasn’t enough.It was only last night that I got the word that Cross Serpenti was back in the US. He had hidden away and scurried from the States after his manipulative tactic to hit back at Serrano and myself using Castro. When that hadn’t worked, clearly he was back for more.The flight attendant placed the glass of wine on the table in front of me and I stared at the red fragrant liquid, decidedly angered that I had made the wrong decision.I had not even contacted Alicia after I had left, thinking it would be a distraction to me.My fingers tapped on the armrest of my chair and I turned to glance at the clouds. This high u

Alicia’s POV Only after I was placed in the backseat of the getaway car watching the building of my college growing in the distance did I realize that I had been abducted again. Again.Dammit I thought. Whas my life just full of twists and turns designed to drive me mad?I couldn’t imagine that I would end up being placed in such a situation again. Except this time it was because of Acker. Acker Madden.I let out a sigh, turning to gaze at the city’s scenery as the car passed by through the window. My life has become nothing but a pawn to use at any given opportunity by enemies and friends like this was a game. How would I get out of this now of this?Would anyone come tos ave me?Acker was in Germany, last I heard, I was reminded by the memory of speaki mg with Mikael, and that led to disturbing thoughts.I was alone.Cross was right, that time he met me when I was only outo exercise.As much as I wanted to ignore the idea of being in danger or being important enough to require 24

Alicia’s POVNeither men answered my question as I had somehow expected. They were both similar and it made me pour at how they ignored me and ushered me into the car. Mikael went ahead and opened the car door for me and Acker was sat right beside me, while Mikael’s took a seat at my other side.As the car began to move I knew that I couldn’t stay in the oppressive silence any more“So… how was Germany?” I turned to Acker, ignoring Mikael. I still felt embarrassed at how our last phone call had gone and just because he had been a part of my rescuing didn’t change a damn thing.Acker raised a brow, looking surprised.I quickly asserted, “Mikael told me about it.”“Did he now?” His voice was just as deep and shiver inducing as usual and I flushed when I felt eyes biting into the back of my skull.“Wonderful Tesoro,” Mikael’s scolding was light and his voice still contained a humorous tinge to it. “Selling me out to Madden of all people?““Well. Uh…” i trailed off, spluttering and lost f

Acker’s POVI finished the call and returned to the Serrano’s house, and just as I walked into the foyer, his young butler, Anton, came in through the other entrance and he bowed to me.Hearing that Mikael had asked me to take charge of Alicia was a surprise; the blonde man always showed signs of jealousy and while it irked me, it was predictable. This wasn’t.I brushed aside the questions arising ib my mind and quoted for Alicia to arrive. And so, she did, and when I saw her downcast expression in her pretty face, I knew something was up.“Darling,” I stood eyeing her from top to bottom. She was still wearing that gown that Mikael had the maid dress ber up in and I had to admit, it looked fetching on her. She wore a coat over it as well, and the butler carried a small bag of what I assumed to be her clothes. “Are you alright?” I asked her, trying to gauge how clouded her mind might be.To my surprise she reached for me and put her arms around my torso, pressing her face into my chest

Alicia’s POVThank goodness it was already halfway through the first month of fall, was all I could think as I tried to focus on finishing my notes for the class.The scarf over my neck wasn’t going to look too unusual, nor was the slight flush in my cheeks.With every second that Professor Samantha drones on and on about philosophy, i could feel my mind slipping back into the memories of last night.Last night.With Acker.It had been… a lot.It had been perfect.I could hardly use words to describe what exactly it was to me, that Acker had done. Where I had been at first trying to use him to forget all about Mikael, I ended up creating new memories with Acker.To me it was special, and at the very least, Acker didn’t seem to treat me like just another one of his women. I didn’t even know if he had another woman on the side, because every time he was with me he made me feel special.Meanwhile, Mikael’s-I let out a long sigh and ignored the instinctual glance from the girl in the se
