All Chapters of The Mafia Don's Sweet Temptation: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Talia’s POV True to Lorenzo’s words, I had gone from his escort to a suspect as I was bundled into the back of a van with a handful of his guards who placed handcuffs on me. I felt the car I was in move and while I couldn’t see anything, my best guess was we were heading back to the mansion and I dreaded what was waiting for me back there. I didn’t see Marissa here with them and I didn’t know how to face her after everything that had transpired. She had been one of the few genuine friends that I ever had and I felt bad for how this whole thing had turned out. If I could go back in time to make my decision to betray Lorenzo, I know what I’d pick over and over. I didn’t know how long I was out for but a guard violently shook my arm forcing me awake. I rubbed my eyes open and realized that the car had stopped moving and that meant only one thing. “You need to come down now,” The guard spoke harshly and I quickly did as he instructed. I made my way out of the car and into the fami

Talia’s POV The words were too heavy for my mouth to spill and I could only watch in tears as Lorenzo walked out of the prison room, leaving me alone with the darkness and the other prisoners for company. The place was silent except for the occasional screaming I could hear. There was this feeling of despair and resignation that hung in the air and I was starting to feel it in my bones too. The cell I was in smelled of puke, rotten flesh, and blood. I’d always dreamt of being free to make choices and decisions that would benefit my life without any interference from anyone and that had always been my dream but it was a thing of the past now. I had doubts that I would come out of here alive. And in that moment, I heard someone break into tears and I finally accepted my fate that I was never walking out of here. This was my fate until Lorenzo decided to have mercy on me and put a bullet between my eyes and if it did come down to that, I’d gladly pick a quick death over suffering in

Lorenzo’s POVI began a ruthless attack on the rival mafia gang and their cohorts, taking them down one at a time, and much to my surprise, I found out that a number of the people I’ve had dealings and connections with in the past, were working for John right under my nose and I had no idea until now.Ricardo was a man who had sworn off drugs when I met him over a decade ago. He was a private detective, one of the best in the whole country with connections in every public office but he was a chronic gambler who had a mountain of debts to pay he asked me to teach him the ropes and despite my initial reluctance, he managed to prove his worth and in the long run, it didn't take him long for him to convince me he was perfect for the job, I waited for him to get clean and together we had worked seamlessly. He always spotted the threat and took care of them under my instructions. If anyone knew who to meet about my past, it would be Ricardo Chiesa. He had been the perfect candidate for what

Lorenzo’s POVEvery day we recorded huge successes against our enemies and they knew what fate was coming for them now. A good number of them had begged to pledge their allegiance to me and l rounded them up in an empty warehouse and questioned every one of them about John’s location but not one of them could give me anything tangible to work with much to my disappointment. Enraged, I started by killing one of them every single day and sending their mutilated body back to their camp with the same warning I’d issued the rest. If you want to live, bring John to me. I didn’t have any plans of letting any of them go scot-free of course but they didn’t need to know that. I only needed them to do what I wanted and then, they would die. Like Matteo had predicted, the Governor had requested a meeting with me and it was scheduled to start in the next minute. He’d been waiting for me in the dining room for the past five minutes while I watched his reaction from a hidden room. He looked uns

Talia’s POVI dreaded what was coming mostly because I couldn’t figure out what it was. A little over an hour ago, Lorenzo was yelling profanity at my face and all of a sudden, we were having sex. At first, I believed he was out to tease and torture me but we soon got lost in the passion and we had one of the noisiest sex ever. He wasn't joking when he said he didn’t mind if people heard us and there was no way they hadn't been having sex for the past hour. But it was all over now and it was time to face reality. I didn’t know what Lorenzo wanted from me now and the suspense was killing me. Given everything I’d been through, I knew I wasn’t going to survive this if I didn’t get it off my chest. “Lorenzo?” I whispered under my breath, loud enough for him to hear. He was in the process of buttoning his shirt but he paused before turning to face me. “Is there a problem?” “No, I mean, yes. I—I want you to give me five minutes of your time.” I pleaded. “And why would I do that? Do
