The Mafia Boss's Lie: Murder in the Name of Love · Completed · 6.6k Words
Introduction
On the day of the wedding, my fiancé abandoned me for Lily, and during the pursuit, my parents were involved in a car accident — one dead and one severely injured.
It was him — Don Gabriel of the mafia family, who used his influence to send my mother to the best hospital, personally performing her surgery, but couldn't save her.
In the hospital, he publicly proposed, saying he would protect me for life, and I, desperate, agreed, clinging to it like a lifeline.
For eight years after marriage, every month, he used a syringe the size of a baby’s arm to draw my blood, saying that my blood type was rare and was being stored as an emergency reserve.
Even though I became weak and sick, I foolishly believed this was his care.
Chapter 1
(Elena’s POV)
On the day of the wedding, my fiancé, Anthony Mancini, immediately called off our marriage after receiving a text from Lily Carter. On the way to find him, my parents were involved in a car accident — my father died instantly, and my mother was critically injured.
I thought my life was at its darkest when Anthony’s uncle — Gabriel Mancini, appeared. He was the Don of the Mancini family. He used his family’s influence to get my mother into the best private hospital in Chicago. He also personally performed the surgery on her.
But my mother still died on the operating table from blood loss.
Gabriel kneeled down in the hospital corridor and hugged me, saying he would marry me, give me a home, and protect me for life. In my grief, I accepted his proposal, thinking that it was my salvation.
Until Christmas Eve, when I overheard a conversation in his study.
Inside, Gabriel’s friend Nicholas lowered his voice, filled with shock:
“Gabriel, you drained Elena’s mother’s blood enough, but now you’re going to take her child’s umbilical cord blood for Lily?”
Gabriel’s voice was gentle but cruel:
“I made Elena pregnant with my child just to get the umbilical cord blood. Lily has an extremely rare blood type, and Elena and her mother happen to have the same type. I can’t take any risks.”
Nicholas paused, his voice bitter: “For Lily, you arranged the car accident, which killed Elena’s father, and drained her mother’s blood...” “I had no choice,” Gabriel interrupted coldly. “If something happens to Lily, I’ll go mad.”
“But she’s fine! Why do you have to do this?” Nicholas rasped.
Gabriel was silent for a long time before he spoke quietly:
“If anything happens, it’ll be too late. I can’t stand watching her suffering a little. I must be prepared for anything, at all times!”
I froze in place, my body cold as ice, but Gabriel wasn’t finished.
“As for Elena, I’ll spend the rest of my life making it up to her.”
Gabriel’s tone was bitter:
“Lily doesn’t like me, so I married Elena, letting Lily marry the man she likes.”
Nicholas almost yelled:
“You’re still pretending it’s for Elena’s good, regularly drawing her blood? Do you know how weak she is? Letting her get pregnant could kill both her and the baby!”
Gabriel was silent for a moment.
“I’ll get her the best OB team. She won’t die.”
But is there really a completely safe option in medicine?
Nicholas naturally disagreed, angrily rebutting:
“You’re insane. If Elena finds out everything, do you know what you’ll face? Murder, illegal blood extraction, black market medical practices — you’ll go to federal prison, and your family will be ruined!”
Gabriel didn’t hesitate:
“For Lily, I don’t care. My parents will understand. As for Elena... if she wants to seek revenge, she can.”
My body uncontrollably began to tremble, and I covered my mouth as I fled the scene.
The salvation I thought I had...
Was a trap carefully set by him.
My mother, who could have been saved, became a sacrifice to Lily.
And I, unknowingly, married him, was repeatedly drained of blood, and became Lily’s mobile blood bank.
Yesterday, I found out I was pregnant and eagerly shared the good news with him.
He, always calm and reserved, was so happy he picked me up and spun me around several times, saying he had become the happiest man in the world because of me.
I thought he was happy about the new life that would carry both of our bloodlines.
But now I know, the reason he was so happy was just because with my umbilical cord blood, Lily had more security.
He didn’t care if my life was in danger!

Omega Bound
Thane Knight is the alpha of the Midnight Pack of the La Plata Mountain Range, the largest wolf shifter pack in the world. He is an alpha by day and hunts the shifter trafficking ring with his group of mercenaries by night. His hunt for vengeance leads to one raid that changes his life.

GO ON YOUR KNEES, ALPHA.
He was wrong.
Six years ago, Pete Leadsilver had everything an Alpha could want. Power, a respected pack and a future already written for him.
Then he met me.
What began as a game became a mistake I would spend years trying to survive. When I told him I was carrying his child, Pete chose not to believe me. He rejected me, humiliated me, and allowed the people around him to make sure I understood that there was no place for me in his world.
So I disappeared.
I took the secret of my pregnancy with me and built a life far away from the Alpha who had broken me.
Six years later, Pete finds me again. Only this time, he isn't the man with all the power. His pack is dying, his people are running out of time, and I may be the only person capable of saving them.
But I'm no longer the woman Pete remembers. And beside me is a little boy who carries far too much of Pete's face to be a coincidence.
Our reunion should have been about a cure, but instead, it becomes the beginning of a war neither of us saw coming.
Because Pete's greatest danger isn't outside his pack.
It's inside his own family.
Old resentment turns into manipulation. Loyalty becomes betrayal. And the people Pete trusts begin hiding secrets that threaten to destroy everything he's built.
Then someone comes for the people I love.
Suddenly, this is no longer about whether Pete can earn my forgiveness.
It's about whether he can keep me alive.
Whether he can protect the son he never knew existed.
Whether he can uncover the truth before the people closest to him destroy everything he has finally learned to value.
Along the way, we'll lose people we thought would always stand beside us, I'll be forced to confront wounds I've spent six years trying to bury, and the family we're slowly building will be tested in ways neither of us could have imagined.
Because sometimes love isn't the hardest thing to find. Sometimes it's the hardest thing to survive.
Pete once believed power meant never needing anyone and I once believed surviving him meant leaving him behind.
We were both wrong.
Because some bonds refuse to die, some betrayals cut deeper than rejection and some people don't come back into your life to give you a second chance.
They come back to show you exactly what you almost lost.
Pete Leadsilver lost me once.
This time, he'll have to fight to keep the family he never knew he needed.
