~TIANA [POV]~

"Miss Lydia," a voice called from outside. "Lunch is ready downstairs."

Lydia groaned loudly in annoyance. "Seriously?" she muttered.

I heard movement, probably her going to answer the door. After a moment, the bedroom door opened and shut again.

Silence followed afterward, and I wasn't certain if she had left or not.

I opened the door halfway and peeked out.

The room was empty to my relief.

I rushed toward the clothes Lydia had left behind and quickly dressed myself, my eyes dart

  • Resold To The Ruthless Mafia Lord    Snooping

    ~TIANA’S [POV]~I was in no mood to eat downstairs with everyone else that evening.Thankfully, Demetri understood and didn’t try to force me after he sent a maid to fetch me. I hadn’t outright refused....I simply told her to let him know I was running a fever and couldn’t come down. So my food was brought upstairs, and I ate alone in the quiet of my room.Even after I finished, I couldn’t bring myself to relax. Not even the softness of the mattress could coax the tension from my body. My mind remained plagued by unanswered questions that gnawed at me relentlessly.“Screw this,” I muttered, finally giving up. I stood from the bed and left the room. Answers were what I needed, and the first step was figuring out exactly where I stood with Demetri.I stopped the first maid I spotted. The moment she turned, I recognized her immediately. Her eyes widened in shock and dread. She was the same maid who had dropped the pancakes on the floor and ordered me to eat them. The one who picked

  • Resold To The Ruthless Mafia Lord    Buried Secret, Not So Buried

    ~TIANA'S [POV]~**[BACK TO PRESENT]**For the next three years, that man became my personal tormentor, declaring himself master of my life. I had no power to resist him. Although, I fought back fiercely for the first three months, even nearly gouging out his eyes in an escape attempt. That only made him snap and unleash every cruel method to break me completely.My shoulders shook as I rubbed my arms, the awful memories crawling over my skin. My sister had died that night, my only real family. Uncle Rowan, the one person who had shown us kindness, was supposedly dead too.What were the chances that two men in the mafia world shared the exact same name? If it was truly Uncle Rowan, then he had faked his death… and might have been involved in the massacre. I shook my head, gritting my teeth. And he had also known I was suffering for three years and had done nothing to help me. The betrayal burned.I stepped out of the bathroom and left the room, determined to find Sienna. Event thoug

  • Resold To The Ruthless Mafia Lord    Family's Masacar

    ~TIANA'S [POV]~After Demetri left, leaving me alone in the heavy silence of the room, I slid off the bed on shaky legs and made my way to the bathroom.I turned on the faucet, letting the cool water run for a few seconds before cupping some in my palms to drink. Then I splashed the rest over my face. The cold shock slightly helped to steady my racing pulse, though the fear lodged inside my chest refused to ease.If the man Sienna mentioned was truly Uncle Rowan, then how had he survived that night of the massacre?I pressed a trembling hand against the cool marble sink, steadying myself as memories flooded back with vivid clarity. I could still recall every horrific detail, from the beginning to the very bitter end. Every scream, every gunshot, every desperate plea was forever carved into my memory.[FLASHBACK]"....Guess what?" Kiana said excitedly as she jumped onto my bed, nearly knocking my phone out of my hand."What?" I asked, gripping the device tightly."Guess who just got a

  • Resold To The Ruthless Mafia Lord    The Masquerade Invitation

    ~DEMETRI'S [POV]~Just a single name was enough to completely rattle my little sparrow. The moment the name “Rowan Santaro” left Sienna’s lips, Tatiana began breathing heavily, her chest rising and falling in sharp, uneven bursts. The color drained from her face, leaving her pale porcelain skin even whiter under the warm afternoon light filtering through the windows. She staggered, nearly losing her balance before my arm wrapped tightly around her waist steadying her. Her fingers clutched tightly at my shirt like I was the only solid thing left in her world. A soft, distressed sound escaped her throat, barely audible but enough to tighten something in my chest.“Are you okay?” I asked, steadying her with both hands. “Hey, Tatiana, talk to me.”She looked up at me, but her pupils were blown wide and unfocused, as though she couldn’t quite hear my words or register my face. A faint tremor ran through her body.“Is she okay?” Sienna asked, titling her head not with concern, but with a

  • Resold To The Ruthless Mafia Lord    Supposed To Be Six Feet Under

    ~TIANA'S [POV]~ Six Feet Under "Sadly, I am incapable of playing pretend games. Maybe you can teach a thing or two, since you've always been good at it." Marcus continued to taunt her with his words, a sarcastic edge dripping in his voice."Try showing some damn respect, Marcus. At least for Demetri's sake since I was once–"“His wife," Marcus cut her off before she could finish. "You keep talking about being married to my brother like you two had a whole family and kids."Lydia, who had been silent this entire time, finally butted in."Weren't you two just married for a month?" Her question was directed at Sienna.My eyes widened as I looked over at Demetri.Only a month?The realization caught me completely off guard.For some reason, I had always assumed Sienna and Demetri had shared years together, enough time to build memories and a life that would make it difficult to let go.The way she spoke about him, the way she carried herself around him, and the bitterness that s

  • Resold To The Ruthless Mafia Lord    Pretend To Be Civil

    ~TIANA'S [POV]~He glanced at me and said, “Sure. But we’re thinking of playing golf outside later. I’d like you to join us.” His voice carried that commanding edge I was beginning to crave. “I’ll send someone to fetch you when it’s time.” I nodded, brushing my shirt down and rising to my feet. I could feel Marcus’s intense gaze burning into me the entire way. Just before I reached the door, I heard the scrape of his chair as he excused himself and stood too.I had no desire to return to my bedroom, so I went in search of Elizabeth, my only real friend here. I wanted a few stolen moments with her before the game pulled me back into Demetri’s world. I’d barely reached the main entrance when a familiar voice stopped me cold.“Hey.” I froze, then slowly turned. Marcus approached with that casual, smooth stride, one hand shoved deep in his pocket. When he reached me, he rubbed his thumb between his brows, his sharp eyes locking onto mine.“Things have been escalating fast between

  • Resold To The Ruthless Mafia Lord    Table Banter

    ~TIANA'S [POV]~My heart skipped a beat the moment Demetri’s hand settled on my thigh underneath the table. A wave of heat raced through me, making my fingers tremble slightly as I gripped my fork.Every inch of my skin suddenly felt alive, the awkwardness I’d been wearing now mixed with a strang

  • Resold To The Ruthless Mafia Lord    History On Her Lips

    ~ [TIANA'S POV] ~"What the fuck?" Lydia snapped, shooting up from her seat as water dripped down her face. She glared at me like she wanted to set me on fire right there in the dining room. "Are you fucking mad?" she screamed, her shoes scraping loud against the floor.I flinched hard, my hear

  • Resold To The Ruthless Mafia Lord    Ex

    ~TIANA'S [POV]~The room was beautiful. It gave a warm vibe that could at once make anyone relax. Sunlight fell through the tall windows and made the cream walls glow. The bed was huge, the sheets looked soft, and there was a small sitting area by the window. It felt more like a suite than just a

  • Resold To The Ruthless Mafia Lord    Maybe We Could

    ~TIANA'S [POV]~I cleared my throat."I'd really prefer some privacy," I said, struggling not to stutter. "Can I please use the bathroom?"He didn't look up from his plate. "I'm asking you to change here, Tiana."His fork scraped against porcelain, the sound sharp in the silence. His tone carri
