All Chapters of Entwined With The Mafia Boss: Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

Amelia’s POVI wrapped my hand around the pole, my body moving effortlessly as I swung myself up. The lights were low, the music pulsing through the room, and I could feel every eye on me, hungry, expectant. Just another night. I did my best to maintain eye contact with the men in the audience, my gaze flicking from one face to another. They wanted to feel seen, like I was dancing just for them. The usual crowd—older men, mostly married, some with children probably as old as me. Their eyes followed every move I made, and the sound of bills hitting the stage, raining down like confetti, kept me going.They cheered, some more loudly than others, motivating me to do more, to push myself. It was the game we played. They pretended I was theirs for the night, and I pretended I cared about more than their money. It was always the same, the eager requests for private dances, the whispered offers of one-night stands as if money could buy anything they wanted. But no matter how much they offere

Amelia's POV“Boss, are we going to let her live?

Amelia’s POV“Your boss did what?” Tasha half-yelled, her eyes wide with disbelief.“You heard right, he gave me a death sentence,” I replied with an eye roll, trying to mask how heavy the whole situation actually felt.“Amy, you can’t tail Kai. I haven’t met him or even seen him, but that guy has a terrible reputation. He’s not someone you mess with,” Tasha said, her voice edged with urgency. She was trying to convince me, but I was already resigned.“I don’t have a choice, Tasha. If I don’t do this, he’ll fire me. I can’t lose three jobs in a row,” I said, heading toward my wardrobe, avoiding her eyes.“He’ll kill you just like he killed Suzan!” Tasha practically shouted.“What do you want me to do, Tasha? Lose another job and keep living in your apartment, eating your food like you’re my mom?” I shot back, my frustration bubbling over. I hated feeling like a burden, and even though Tasha had never said a word, I still felt like a burden.“I’ve never complained about you staying her
