All Chapters of Collateral Heart : Owned By The Mafia King: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

The low, constant hum of the engine wrapped the interior of the car in a cocoon of controlled silence as the vehicle moved with effortless precision, its tinted windows sealing out the chaos of the city like an afterthought. Inside, everything was leather, muted lighting, and restraint—luxury designed not to impress, but to dominate.Kaiser sat in the back seat with one leg crossed lazily over the other, his posture deceptively relaxed. One arm rested against the leather armrest, his fingers loosely curled as though nothing in the world required urgency. His gaze remained fixed on the blur of steel and glass passing beyond the window, though it was clear his attention was not on the city at all. Light filtered through the tinted glass in narrow slants, carving sharp shadows across his face and accentuating the severity of his features as well as the calm menace hidden within his eyes. He looked as though he had been carved from stillness itself.Beside him, Marcel scrolled through a

The gates of the compound had barely begun closing when every guard straightened simultaneously.Another vehicle was approaching.It neither accelerated nor hesitated. Instead, it moved with the quiet confidence of something that expected the world itself to make way.Vincent noticed immediately.He had been in the middle of issuing instructions when the vehicle came into view through the open gates. The smile on his face changed—not tightening or flattening but warming in a way almost none of his men had ever witnessed."Well, I'll be damned."The engine shut off smoothly.The doors opened.Kaiser stepped out first and Marcel followed a moment later.The effect on the warehouse was subtle but absolute. Conversations died instantly, and men who had previously been leaning against walls straightened without being told—not out of fear, but recognition.Vincent broke into a broad grin and walked forward."Boss Kaiser," he greeted warmly. "You didn't say you were coming personally."Kaise

Meanwhile, Rebecca found herself equally intrigued by the man standing outside the estate. He was very attractive and looked equally familiar.From the moment she drove past him, her attention was drawn toward him.It wasn't simply because he was handsome.Miami was filled with attractive men.No.What caught her attention was the confidence he projected. Despite standing outside one of the city's most powerful family estates and being denied entry, he appeared completely calm and unfazed.As though he belonged wherever he chose to stand.That level of confidence wasn't common.Rebecca approached slowly, her curiosity growing with every step and then she got a closer look at his face. For a brief moment, she genuinely found herself impressed. He was even more attractive than she initially thought.Derrick had a strong features, sharp eyes and natural charisma. The kind of man who effortlessly commanded attention without trying."Hello," she greeted warmly.Derrick offered a polite nod

Rebecca looked at him sympathetically. "I wish I could say you were right." Then she delivered the next lie."Unfortunately, she and her friends gambled away a large portion of it."The silence that followed was much longer this time.Derrick found himself struggling as everything Rebecca was saying sounded believable.. Elena he wasn't greedy neither was she foolish and she certainly wasn't someone who would gamble away her future. Yet Rebecca spoke with such confidence that it became difficult to dismiss everything outright. The doubt had already begun creeping into his mind.Rebecca could see it happening and secretly, she was pleased."What happened after that?" he finally asked.Rebecca's expression darkened. "When Grandfather revealed the truth, Elena lost control.""She became violent."The accusation sounded absurd.And yet Rebecca delivered it with such calm certainty that it almost sounded believable. "She tried to attack Grandfather."Derrick immediately shook his head.

Elena spun around and grabbed his collar, with all the strength fear could give her she pushed him backwards, slamming him against the wall with raw desperation. “Where are we?” she demanded, her voice breaking. “No—forget that. It doesn't matter, just take me back home. Now.” she furiously demanded, glaring daggers at Kaiser.His smile didn’t falter.“I’m afraid that won’t be possible,” he said lightly. “We’re more than two thousand miles away from Miami.”Her grip loosened.“We left a few hours ago,” Kaiser continued. “You slept through the entire flight to Puerto Rico.” he said with a taunting smile.The world tilted.Elena took a step backward, feeling devastated and perplexed. “You’re lying,” Elena whispered, shaking her head. “You have to be.”“I would never do such a thing.”She stared at him with pure hatred, yet he only smiled—as if savoring her unraveling. Trapped on a yacht. No land in sight. In a foreign country.“Why?” she demanded, her voice cracking. “Why are you doing
