Chapter Fifty-Five: You are my sunshine
“Did you guys kiss and make up?” Serenity cocked an eye at her brothers and Xander as they slided in beside her at the entrance of the church.
The memorial service her mother organised for Darrio was about to start and Caterina Lombardi insisted that the three siblings stand at the entrance to greet the guests and accept their heartfelt condolences. Ironically not a single guest she met till now was actually her brother’s friend.
“Yeah because I’m not weirdly and spectacularly intertwined enough with your family as it is.” Xander smirked sarcastically.
“Aww, as long as you guys made up, I don’t mind kissing you on their behalf.” She teased, pinching his cheeks for dramatic effect, earning her a disgusted

“Oh Alessia, it’s so nice to see you after all these years. I’m so glad your parents decided to patch things up, I never did want to choose sides, but I understand why you did my dear, us girls must stick together.”Serenity couldn’t quite remember the name of the woman commenting on her family situation, but the entitlement she felt grated on Serenity’s last nerve.“Of course.” Serenity offered her a tight smile.“So your mother tells me you started your own clothing company. My daughter is into fashion herself, perhaps you girls can get together and discuss working together sometime?” The unknown woman suggested coolly, but the eagerness in her eye told Serenity her intentions weren’t as no

“Mom?” Serenity’s eyes widened when she entered the living room of the Moretti residence and found her mother browsing the family pictures on the mantle.“Hello, Alessia.” Caterina smiled softly.“What are you doing here?” Serenity stuttered, taking a few cautious steps closer.“I’ve come to bring you home.” She stated plainly, looking her daughter directly in the eye.“Excuse me?” Serenity’s eyes widened, she was having a hard time believing the words coming out of her mother’s mouth.“Lorenzo told me you have been living at the Lombardi

Serenity peered at the man in the bathroom mirror as he got ready for dinner. The perfectly trimmed beard he sported sent a little tingle down her spine, but the thing that really made her excitement grow was the wisps of black hair that had grown out so much that it now brushed his shoulders.“Did you get a haircut?” She tilted her head to the side, loving the way the light caught his eyes when he looked at her reflection.“You noticed.” Xander smirked.“I did. It’s very…” She took a step forward and brushed the back of his head with her finger tips, “Bradley Cooper.” Serenity’s teeth sunk into her bottom lip.“Is that right?
Loving Mr Mafia Chapter Fifty-Nine: What doesn't kill you...
Serenity swallowed hard, the lump formed in her throat was proving difficult to get rid of. After Giovanni’s revelation she excused herself and hurriedly made her way outside. The thin blouse she wore did little to protect her from the cool evening air, but she could barely focus on the weather over her muddled thoughts.This changed so much. Her mother had granted her the chance to experience a somewhat normal life, her teenage years were ones she cherished most and unlike all other American born children, she loved high school. At the same time she had unknowingly given away a decision which would have changed the entire trajectory of her life.“Penny for your thoughts?” Xander slipped off his suit jacket and dropped it over her shoulders, after watching her for almost an hour he finally had enough.&nb
Loving Mr Mafia Chapter Sixty: Demand respect not fear
“Hey, lunch is almost ready.” Serenity called to Xander when she saw him enter the kitchen in her peripheral vision, but when Xander didn’t breathe a word in response she turned to him with a frown, “Babe?” “Huh?” Xander mumbled, but his irate eyes were still glued to his phone while his fingers flew over the screen at the speed of light. “Lunch is ready.” She cocked an eyebrow and watched him ignore her once again, “Okay, that’s it.” She crossed the kitchen and plucked his phone from his hands before he could realise what hit him. “What the fuck?” Xander’s jaw dropped when she locked the phone and slid it into her back pocket, “What are you doing? I was fucking busy!” He reached out to grab her, but serenity managed to avoid him. “No, it’s time for lunch.” She slid the plate stacked with a caesar chicken salad sandwich his way, “Now, are you gonna tell me what’s got you so worked up?” She raised a single brow at him and slid into the seat beside him with her own plate. “Genino is

“I’ve got it.” Enzo stopped Xander when he went to help him get off the Jeep into his wheelchair.“You sure man?” Xander hesitated, but didn’t intervene even when he looked like he may lose his balance.“I said I got it.” Enzo snapped and rolled away as soon as he was in the chair.“Don’t take it personally man, Dad’s been giving him a hard time, he’s just frustrated.” Matteo patted Xander’s shoulder comfortingly as they walked towards the door of the bar.“Just when I thought your father couldn’t possibly be more of an asshole he finds a way to prove me wrong.” Xander sneered, “What&rs

“He’s here.” Alonso announced when security at the front gate informed him of Lombardi’s arrival.“Let the show begin.” Xander stood from his chair and buttoned his blazer with a confident smirk and made his way to pour himself a glass of bourbon.Before Xander could take a sip the door to his office flew open, halting his action, he spun on his heel and lazily dragged his eyes over Giovanni Lombardi’s grey suit.“Giovanni. To what do I owe the pleasure?” He questioned lazily, turning back to add a few cubes to his drink.“You know exactly why I’m here.’ Giovanni spat somewhat angrily.
Loving Mr Mafia Chapter Sixty-Three: Goodbye
He heard Serenity’s voice behind him, but he kept walking further away. He wished she never had to see that side of him, the side that thirsted for the blood of the man who had both wronged her and given her life. He never wanted her to see the side of him that craved vengeance and to settle the score. He hated that the only thing standing between him and becoming his father was but a thinly spread humanity. “Xander, stop!” Serenity finally caught up to him and gripped his wrist, tugging him to a halt. “Don’t!’ He ripped his arm from her and backed away from her. “What happened back there?” She went to touch him, but Xander avoided her touch yet again and she fought to swallow the hurt that bubbled up at his action. “He fucking deserved it!” Xander seethed and felt his blood rush to his head yet again. “I don’t care about him, Alexander. What happened to you?” She emphasised. The switch flipped and Xander became someone she didn’t recognise, a person that only cared about se
