Devil's vow✔️[ Mafiaso Series #1]

BETRAYED

*New+Old*

Tartarus sub-headquarters
Russia

All the sinners and lawbreakers were under one roof, the people for whom the quintessence of water was thicker than the crimson blood flowing were enjoying the feast. Whispers and smiles hid the devil inside them as they mingled with each other, all the while wondering what was going into other persons' minds.

Clarion of red liquor flowing from the fountain set in the middle of the golden ballroom provided a peace that was uncertain. American Mafia was colluding with Bulgarian and Brazilian Mafia to form an alliance. Brazil, Portugal, and the countries surrounding were under Ajax Waylon, America was under Julian Romanov while Bulgaria was ruled by the Kingsman clan whose heir was Tyler Kingsman.

Tyler and Ajax had reached a common point thus now this party was to see which other clans would support them. Julian Romanov made his way towards the person for whom he had organized this soirée.

"Did you find anyone useful yet?" Two of the men met without much smiles and greetings, this was pure business and none of them had the time to chitchat.

"Several of them."

"What did you offer- well who might this be? Ajax did not answer when the petite figure of the woman who was roaming around and mingling suddenly came beside him and stood.

Julian did not have much patience with anyone, if it was someone else who would have so blatantly ignored him he might have taken that as a sign of disrespect yet this person resembled someone too much that he could not find any anger in himself. Liliana Waylon, the birth mother of Ajax belonged to the American Mafia empire and was the sister of Julian.

Women of the crime dynasties had political marriages thus to marry her one true love-Leonard, Liliana gave up her status of the princess and married outside the mafia. Leonard was a simple businessman and had nothing to do with the dark webs of the crime world.....and that was the reason why his entire family was suffering.

Julian's father had disowned Liliana and refused to extend any relations with her even after the birth of Ajax, it was only after his death that Julian took over the throne and tried to search for his lost sister, only to find her fallen to a tragedy. For all those reasons Julian Romanov had never liked Leonard Waylon and his children yet when Ajax extended his hands asking for help at the mere age of ten, he was unable to refute and thus reestablished his relations with him.

For now he had felt guilt and shame thus never questioned Ajax's revenge.

The silence of night was so thick that it made an awkward atmosphere between the men before the Russian heiress tried to break it down by smiling and answering herself.

"Alaina Storm, pleasure meeting you sir."

A Storm?

The man looked at Ajax intently, was he playing with this girl? He hated Storms the most in the world so why was this woman here with him.

"Your eyes have malicious intent, kindly refrain from arriving at harsh judgements. She is my girl and not a pawn...you will respect her as you respect my mother."

Those words were not harsh when someone from far judged them yet for the people who said a word and meant thousands this was no less than a warning.

"Meet me in the office after the party-" Julian replied in a cold voice that seemed to not take his words at heart for only Ajax to cut him with an evil smile.

"No, lets talk now......I will be waiting for you uncle." he took Alaina's hand and led her upstairs and the man gritted his teeth when his soilders parted for him like he was their king.

This person could not be tamed anyhow.

Fyra's Place
Russia
Cally's pov

My emotions were rippling like a stone thrown in stagnant water, sitting infront of Ryan in a cozy Egyptian style restaurant with him confessing his love for me was like ice cold water was dumped on my head.

He had dragged me to this place, the homey atmosphere with various heighliographs drawn on the golden walls depicting Pharos, their gold, ruby and treasure chest, it all appeared very royale but classic yet when one observed closely this was a place where there were no other people, yet I could feel eyes watching my each and every move,

"Worry not love, they are my men."His words were not encouraging thus I quitely sipped my wine while he had his chilled beer.

Earlier I was so radiant that I have broken his and Alaina's possible strengthening friendship and maybe future love but right now I was rather disoriented. Alaina was never interested in Ryan to begin with but was enamored by that Ace and Ryan saying that he hated them....was this even for real?

His hatred for Alaina and Ace was surprising, so was his confession that he was never attracted to her and his friendship with Ace was rather fallacious.

His soft hold on my chin awakened me from my thoughts.

"I called you here not only to confess that I will help you in achieving your goal to become the heir but also want to warn you- your father Valace Storm is in a big trouble. Various mafia clans are against him now and Ace is not a common person that you people perceive him to be...if Mr Storm wants he can investigate...he will know the truth."

"And why would you be telling me all this, what will you gain from this?"

"Me?"

"Yes Ryan, I don't trust that you are here only for the sake of our..this relationship, then what is it?" Ryan watched the woman for quite sometime before throwing his head back and laughing heartily.

"You are not as foolish as I thought you were..ofcourse darling, if you can have the throne of Storms...wouldn't it be quite beneficial to me.....you can be my woman as you always wanted to be and I can rule alongside you."
