All Chapters of Blood and Roses: The Mafia Don Loves Me: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

Matthew had never expected things to escalate this way. He stood helpless as his best friend fell, unable to act in time.The thought running through his mind at that moment was a mix of anger and disbelief: how could Curtis and the Adonis family have been so careless? Could love have blinded Curtis’s eyes and dulled his senses?But now wasn’t the time for such thoughts. Gunfire erupted all around, forcing Matthew to move swiftly to avoid it.Leaping into action, his tall, athletic frame moved with the agility of a panther. With lightning speed, he kicked one of the Russian attackers and raised his weapon, firing precise shots that struck the heads of his targets. His bullets found their marks, even grazing the Russian kingpin and his daughter despite their bodyguards’ protective formation. If Alice hadn’t pushed her father aside in time, the bullet would have gone straight through his heart.Matthew frowned slightly. The girl had an unusually sharp sense of awareness and remarkable s

At night, the entire space sank into an eerie calm and tranquility, so strange that Emilia even felt as though the events from earlier that morning had been nothing but a nightmare.But the dull room and Ray lying asleep on the bed reminded her that it was not a dream. She had returned to New York after three years and witnessed her father and brother die before her eyes.They were gone, and she couldn’t do anything to save them.Emilia sat on the bed, her eyes always watching Ray. Suddenly, a tear fell from her beautiful eyes, soaking into the bed sheets.Emilia was stunned, then quickly turned away, looking out the window. She didn’t wipe the tear, letting it continue to fall. She quietly cried, making no sound except for her trembling back.Suddenly, a warm hand rested on her shoulder, and right after, a warm embrace enveloped her.Emilia widened her eyes slightly, her forehead resting on the warm chest of the man. The air around her nose carried a fresh scent like the forest, mixe

Matthew's car sped swiftly toward the shared warehouse, which, on the outside, was disguised as an abandoned factory. However, the inside had been renovated to store goods that Matthew's organization and the Adonis family shared.Despite the recent attack that left the Adonis family severely wounded, Emilia was still here. Matthew was determined not to let anyone lay a hand on the Adonis family's property—let alone the goods stored in the warehouse, some of which belonged to him.Seated beside Matthew, Emilia wore a cold and solemn expression.Matthew glanced at her briefly and spoke softly, "Don't worry too much, Emilia. I won't let them touch the Adonis family—not even a bit."Emilia turned to look at Matthew, catching only his stern profile. He had always been exceptional, from childhood to adulthood. His promises were always fulfilled. Emilia trusted Matthew's words, but a question lingered in her mind:"Matthew, why are you so good to me?"Her father and brother were both gone, l

"All units retreat! There's a variable!" the voice of an intruder echoed.Even Emilia could hear the panic in his voice. It made sense—their meticulously crafted plan to kill Matthew had fallen apart in ways they could never have anticipated. They hadn't accounted for the sheer power Matthew possessed, nor had they ever considered Emilia's existence would pose a challenge. After all, Emilia's reputation as a genius had been buried three years ago when she left her family without a word, relinquishing her position as heir.She had been powerless during her brother's wedding, but now she was determined to trap every one of these intruders here.With that thought, Emilia sprang into action. Armed with her own gun and one she had taken from an intruder, she fired at their legs with precision.The intruders collapsed to the ground, still attempting to fire back, but Matthew and his subordinates arrived, swiftly overpowering them.Some intruders bit down on poison capsules hidden in their m
