Semua Bab Tied To The Mafia Boss: Bab 71 - Bab 80

AlisonMabel was stacking the plates when I walked up to her. We had just finished Dinner and Aiden had retired to his room.When I moved closer to her, she didn’t look up as I approached, probably assuming I’d just walk past her like I usually did. But I did something different."Do you need help?" I asked. Mabel’s hands paused, and she turned to me, eyes widening slightly in surprise. She searched my face as if trying to determine whether I was being sincere or simply joking. When she saw that I wasn’t joking, she hesitated before nodding. She didn’t say anything, but I didn’t need her to. I reached for a plate and started drying it, working alongside her in silence. "You know I meant it," I finally said. "When I said I felt guilty." Mabel’s fingers tightened around the edge of the sink, but she didn’t stop washing. "Sure." Her reply sounded edgy, and I wanted to smack her in the face.I had to remind myself to play along.I placed another plate on the counter, exhaling sl

Alison “Alison looked really scared Aiden!”Mabel said. “That guy would have killed her if someone didn’t come into the restroom.”I stared at Mabel’s concerned face she was taking this nice sister's act seriously.Deep down I knew she wished I had died in that toilet stall. I heard Aiden grunt and I peered his way.Aiden’s face darkened and his fists were curled up at his sides. He looked like he was about to go to war.Aiden just like Mabel was a perfect actor. He knew how to make his fake emotions seem so real. “I’m going to find him,” I heard Aiden say, his voice sounded dangerous, very dangerous. If I didn’t know him better better I would have been shaken by the tone of his voice.“I’m going to make sure I don’t stop until he takes his last breath.” Aiden’s words picked up once again.Mabel and I exchanged a glance. “Aiden, Hugh is dangerous. He isn’t someone you can mess with.” I was the first to speak up.His eyes flicked to mine. “I fear no one.” With that, he grabbed h

Alison I stood on the terrace, my heart pounding as I positioned myself to face Damien’s window. The feeling of the heavy wind engulfed my skin, but I barely noticed it. My focus was entirely on the frame in my hand—the message I had hastily scribbled at the pack of the frame. I found the frame tucked inside one of the drawers, and lying beside it was a marker.I wrote that Damien should warn Hugh and that Aiden is coming for him.The writing was so bold for Damien to see it.I planned to wave the frame around like an SOS message. I hoped Damien would see it. It was the only way I could get the information across to him without having to go to his apartment and complicate things even more.I gripped the frame tightly as I pulled myself out of my thoughts, and then I waved it toward Damien’s window“Come on, Damien,” I muttered under my breath. “You better be watching.” The house across from me remained dark like no one was in there. I bit my lip, my pulse quickening with f

Damien When I straightened up, and I saw Rex looking at me with a shocked gaze.“Hold up!” He said after regaining himself. “So you want me to save his life?”"Something like that," I said quickly. "Basically all you have to do is warn him.” Rex's amused expression faded into something more serious. "Why can’t you tell him yourself?" I hesitated. "I can't. I’m not even supposed to be in the city like I had told you before. If Hugh finds out I’m here, he’s gonna lose it. I need you to deliver the message as if you found out yourself." Rex was about to speak when the bouncer named Barry stepped inside.“You have a client sir!” The bouncer said, and Rex raised a brow.“Who is it?” He asked. “It is a returning customer!” He replied and Rex’s eyes twitched, and he looked like he was about to slap Barry in the eyes.“What did I tell you about not being specific with me?” Rex asked, and Barry’s eyes grew as if realizing that he had fucked up. “I’m sorry…. I just…”“Just tell me who

Alison I stared at Mabel after those words left her lips, my gaze carefully studying her. She seemed distracted, her focus locked on something outside the window. Was she avoiding my eyes?Maybe I was overthinking this. I turned away, and I found myself digesting her words.I knew Aiden couldn't just decide to eradicate the city's gangs. He knew how powerful they were—he’d even been handling one himself. If anything, he knew better than anyone that taking them out entirely wasn’t an easy feat. I had a feeling that the reason why Aiden needed to become the mayor wasn’t about wiping out the gangs. There was more to this than Mabel was telling me. But how was I going to get to the bottom of things?I sighed, asking Mabel seemed like the only way I could get the answers I needed but would she be willing to let me in on what was going on?I wouldn’t know if I didn’t ask. So I decided to pop the question before I could speak Mabel turned away from the window. “I’m going to freshen up,
