It had been a few days since the meeting, and ever since then, I’ve been having nightmares about next week. As I walked down the long hospital corridor, my mind drifted to what my life would even look like next week.

With a heavy sigh, I pushed open the door to Mom’s room. There she was, seated on her bed, busy on a call. I dropped a thank-you gift bag onto the bedside table and threw myself onto the side of her bed with an exhausted groan.

A few moments later, she ended

  • Bound to the mafia    Chapter 45: The Dissappearance

    Ava’s POVMy phone buzzed against the table, the screen lighting up with Ashley’s name. The second I answered, her sharp voice crackled through the speaker.“Hey
 so when are you coming to collect your stuff from your locker? I wanna move my things.”I frowned and shifted in my chair. “I thought you had your own locker?”“Yeah. But I’m the new sales manager now, so I intend to move into yours.”My eyebrows pulled together.“Is there
 is there something special about my locker or what?”“Excuse me!” she scoffed. “Aren’t I allowed to move into your locker that you can no longer access?”A dry laugh slipped from my lips. “If you called me just to rub this in my face, then I’m sorry you wasted your time.”Her laughter rang through the line, smug and irritating. “Isn’t it wonderful? You’re still carrying your head high even in this shitty moment. I’m sure you thought you were bigger than the program. Thought you were special because you’re a little good at marketing.”I rolled my eyes and p

  • Bound to the mafia    Chapter 44: One Week Later

    Ava’s POVIt had been one whole week since that call from my mother, and this morning, I woke up to another call, this time from my boss. I still couldn’t wrap my head around it.How could I lose my job over one customer who had pushed my patience to its breaking point? Was Sophia’s assault suddenly justified just because she was a customer?No, I wasn’t going down without a fight, and there was only person who I know could give me answers.With trembling fingers, I scrolled through my old messages until I found her number. The moment I saw it, I tapped and dialed. The phone rang twice before her familiar voice answered.“Vanessa! How dare you?! Have you forgotten how you were groveling at my feet? Or do you want me to call Mr. Vindell right this moment?”She scoffed.“Seems like you’re obsessed with me. You asked me to leave you alone, and I did. So why the hell are you still calling me?”“Vanessa! If you don’t fix this mess, I’m telling Winston and calling Mr. Vindell.”“Fix which me

  • Bound to the mafia    Chapter 43: The Lay Offs

    Katherine’s POVMrs. Ashford rose from the elegant sofa and walked straight toward me, while Vindell disappeared up those sweeping stairs.“Katherine, follow me,” Mrs. Ashford said, opening the massive front door.I followed her outside and across the grounds until we reached her mansion. The moment we stepped inside and she settled onto the luxurious sofa, her expression turned unusually serious.“Kate! Why didn’t you tell me?”My brows knitted together. “Tell you what?”“That Vindell is seeing someone.”At those words, my eyes widened and my entire body stiffened. “What?”“Yes.”“He’s seeing someone?” I repeated, completely thrown off balance.She paused, studying my reaction carefully. “You didn’t know? You really didn’t know.” She stood and began pacing across the grand living room. “Which means Vin knew about our plans from the beginning. Or did you tell him?”“No, I didn’t.”“So you don’t even know what this woman looks like? Or where she works? And you call yourself his PA?”I

  • Bound to the mafia    Chapter 42: The Contrast

    Ava’s POVI picked up the call with a thudding heart, quickly looking away from Peter.“Hey, Ava! Guess what?” Mom’s excited voice came through the phone.I swallowed a stubborn lump forming in my throat. “Mom! What did he say?”“Well, well, well,” she teased, laughing on the other end. “I guess I’m about to become a mother-in-law.”My eyes widened instantly. “Mom!”“Calm down, Ava.” I could practically picture the amused smile on her face as she tried to stop laughing. “I’m just kidding. He agreed to let the contract go.”My breath caught. “What? Really?”“Yeah! He apologized for coming down too hard on you and promised to withdraw the contract.”At that moment, all the tension that had been squeezing my chest seemed to melt away. I released a long breath. “Oh
 that’s
 that’s good news. Thanks, Mom.”“Now,” she continued, “make sure you bring Peter when you come over next time.”i chuckled lightly “Of course, I will. I’m actually on my way to lunch right now. I’ll call you later.”“A

  • Bound to the mafia    Chapter 41: One Week

    Ava’s POV The moment I spotted Winston and Vanessa heading toward us, I instinctively tightened my grip on Peter’s hand. I was already turning to drag Peter away when Winston’s voice rang out across the street. “Peter!” I groaned inwardly as he walked toward us with Vanessa beside him. “Let’s just go,” I muttered, tugging Peter along. “Those two are always carrying trouble around, and I can’t afford to get on my boss’s bad side again.” Peter nodded and started walking with me. Then Winston shouted loud enough for half the street to hear. “I won! Ava will never be yours, and she knows it too!” Peter stopped dead in his tracks and turned. My heart sank. “Let’s just go,” I urged frantically. “He’s just a loser.” But it was already too late, Winston had reached us. “Babe, I’m going inside to pick up a few things,” Vanessa said. She kissed his cheek, threw an irritating glance in my direction, and disappeared into the building. The second she was gone, Winston’s s

  • Bound to the mafia    Chapter 40: A hot mess

    Ava’s POV I glanced at the phone screen, and it was Peter calling. Instead of answering, I slipped the phone right back into my bag. “Who’s that?” Mom asked. “It’s Peter, Mom,” I replied as I pushed myself to my feet. Her face immediately brightened. “Oh! Well, put the call on speaker. I need to talk to him and ask him how he finally did it.” I laughed. “I can’t right now, Mom. I’m already late for work, and my boss has been on my back for a while now.” Leaning down, I kissed her cheek. “I’ll come around by Friday.” “Well, make sure you bring my son-in-law.” “Sure,” I said before heading out of the room. * * * * * * By twelve o’clock, I was wrapping up a few things before lunch break when a figure suddenly appeared in front of my desk. The moment I looked up, my soul nearly left my body. “Peter!” He frowned.“What? Did you see a ghost?” “No!” I pressed a hand against my chest. “What are you doing here? You should’ve called first.” “Well, I’ve been trying to c
