BLOOD AND VOWS: THE MAFIA WRONG BRIDE 101
CHAPTER 101WALKING ON GLASSCHIARAI don’t think I can go back to how everything was before I saw the killing. Everything makes me jump. Every time I hear a door close I flinch. Everytime I see one of the bodyguards, my breath seizes. I try to return to my normal routine. Waking up, going to the library, taking walks with being afraid of going to the wrong place and witnessing what I’m not supposed to witness. It felt like I was constantly waiting for something terrible to happen. The mansion hadn’t changed, but I had. Every hallway felt longer than before. Every corner made me wonder if I would walk into something I wasn’t supposed to see. Even the sound of men’s voices somewhere in the distance made my heart beat a little faster.The library, once my favourite place in the entire mansion, no longer felt like a sanctuary. I would catch myself glancing toward the door every few minutes, half expecting Lucien or one of his men to walk in with blood on their clothes as though it were

CHAPTER 100THE DEVIL OF MILANLUCIEN The drive to one of the branches was quiet. This was the first time I was going to this branch. It had just been formed recently and I put one of my most trusted people in charge of it. I was expecting everything to go well since he was one of my best strategists. I needed to expand the business more and Matteo was my best choice.When we got to the warehouse, it looked completely deserted, like no one was there. I was completely stunned. Something in the back of my mind kept saying that something was wrong and I always trusted my instincts. I tried searching memories for anything that might have given me any sign that this branch needed my attention but nothing came to mind. And it clicked. The fact that Matteo had not even reported about the welfare of the business seems to be what concerned me.I stepped down from the car and walked forward. Marco came to stand beside me. “Marco, when was the last time you heard from Matteo?” I asked. Marco l

CHAPTER 99THE COST OF POWER LUCIENBreakfast ended quickly. There was nothing really much to talk about during breakfast. Valentina was quiet all through. Marco was working while eating and I just stayed there, pretending to read the newspaper. Initially, I was reading until she came in. I lost focus. It was like everything changed whenever she appeared. What was wrong with me?I could tell that she was still scared about yesterday. She had nightmares. I had installed a camera in the room there and I could see that she was walking up almost all the tim and I could also tell what the dream was about. Now I understand why her father kept asking me if I involved her in the business. She wouldn’t be able to survive all this. Not at all. When she was done eating, she stood up to leave, never once looking back. She’s always looking back, even if it was an accident and seeing how she was trying to run away meant that she was still scared. I really wished I could do something about that b

CHAPTER 98THE MORNING AFTERCHIARAI won’t say that I slept. After all the emotional feelings we had with each other, he took me to bed. We didn’t kiss or have sex. We just went to bed to sleep. A few minutes later, he got a call about something urgent that had happened and he whispered to me that he had to. I don’t know if he did it to assure me or something but I didn’t feel it. Instead I kept wondering if he was going to kill another person. Sleep didn’t come easy either. Everytime I tried to sleep, I kept going back to that house behind the maze, to the moment I had seen Lucien plunging a knife into that man’s skull without any mercy. How he just drank the water that was handed over to him even with the blood still on his hands. No matter how many times I had to shake that image from my head, it was still there. When I managed to fall asleep again, I was back there again, but this time, I was the one sitting on the chair. “Did you really think I’ll forgive you for deceiving m

CHAPTER 97A MAN LIKE MELUCIEN“Sleep well” I asked and I was immediately welcomed with a loud sound. Her scream pierced through the night. I looked at her, not reacting to that sound she made. When she was done, she started panicking. She looks at me like I’m some kind of serial killer, ready to end her life. “Why are you just sitting there?” She asked, voice raspy white fear. “Did you just watch me sleep without saying anything?” I didn’t respond to her and I think that was what was making her panic. She was being so frantic, looking around her, finding a place to hide. Something in my chest broke. Suddenly she stood up from the bed and slowly went to one of the hidden sides of the room. It looked like she didn't even know what she’s doing. Like she’s blinded by the fear of what she saw earlier today and is trying to hide away from me. And that irritated me so much. Does she think I’ll hurt her just because of what she saw? I won’t do that to her but I guess she doesn’t know tha

CHAPTER 96THE WAITCHIARAI don’t think I’ve ever ran as fast as I did today. I don’t even know how I found my way out of the maze and back to my room. It’s funny how fear and adrenaline could make you do a lot of things you did not expect to do. As soon as I got to the room, I locked it. I knew Lucien had a key, but I needed time to think before he would come back.It wasn’t until I settled down that I knew I was crying. I was still resting behind the door. Slowly, I slid to the floor, sobbing heavily. Memories of what I saw came crashing back. I remember how battered the man had been. Bloodied, his face looking unrecognisable. The scary men in the room. And how Lucien, blinded by rage, swiftly stuck a knife into his skull, the sound of the skull cracking under the pressure of the knife and how he drank water, with his hand still bloody, like it was nothing.Don’t get me wrong, I knew what kind of man Lucien was. I knew the kind of things he did, but seeing it happen in real life w

CHAPTER 27STUPID PRISONER LUCIENFor two full seconds, I didn't move.I sat frozen in my chair, staring at the screen, watching her body lie motionless on the cold stone floor like the screen was displaying an animation. Then I snapped out of it and reached for my phone again. I dialed the guard

CHAPTER 9THE NOTHING'S BARGAIN CHIARAThe door slammed, and I sat frozen on the bed, my chin still throbbing from where his fingers had dug into my skin.What the hell does he mean I shouldn't sing the song again. My memories aren't his fucking property, not everything in this godforsaken fortres

CHAPTER 5 WHO THE HELL ARE YOU? "You're not Valentina." At first, my mind refused to register what he just said. It didn't feel like a sentence meant for me. It just hung in the air between us while my heartbeat turned erratic inside my chest. Lucien stood watching me like he was waiting

CHAPTER 4 I’M NOT HER. The new room was smaller… I realized it the moment I opened my eyes. It had a smaller bed, a smaller fireplace, and smaller walls closing tighter around me, like the house itself had grown tired of my attempts to escape. And oh… the windows no longer opened. I stood
