The Mafia's Widow (Becoming La Dona)

hoping to see my mate

MARCELO’S POV

I had been with so many beautiful women in my life but I had never been with one that exhumed so much power. She was commanding and in full control of her household, I could see she still couldn’t recognize me as her neighbor but there was no rush and we would soon have the time to talk about everything.

I knew that she had probably already sent her people to go and find more information for her about me and I had done the same. This woman made me feel all sorts of ways that I had never been made to feel.

“So what have you found out about her so far?” I asked my beta Alfonso

“Well she is Sabina turner and she is a wolf although she keeps that part about herself hidden in the underworld and no one knows it. She used to date Alpha Alex and she killed him after he killed her lover Marcus, Alex pretended to be her mate because he wanted Marcus’ empire which Sabina took over after Marcus died. So Alex continued pretending he was her mate but when she realized the truth she killed him instantly and started running his businesses along with Marcus’s which is what made him so powerful” Alfonso said

“You mean she is the one who wiped out an entire pack; you mean she is the woman that was talked about for all these years?”  I asked finding it unbelievable that this woman that most people thought was a myth was actually my mate.

Every werewolf in the world knew about the powerful she-wolf that wiped an entire pack just for love and from what I heard Marcus wasn’t even her mate either and yet she did all that for him. That was one thing that kind of made me jealous that my mate was willing to risk her life for someone who wasn’t even created for her.

“What else?” I asked

“Nothing much except that getting her close to you will be a challenge because she kind of has an Alpha-phobia,” Alfonso said struggling not to laugh

“What do you mean?” I asked

“she wants nothing to do with Alphas, she is so afraid of history repeating itself that she will probably kill you the moment she realizes that you are one,” he said

“Alfonso, I am her mate she will never kill me and besides I can never be killed by a mere wolf,” I said confidently and walked away and then went outside to do my usual favorite routine and that was watching Sabina, my mate.

Sabina’s POV

“I think our neighbors are perverts,” I said “ever since they moved here I have constantly been feeling like I am being watched” I complained

“come on Sabina you are being ridiculous and it probably has a lot to do with you meeting your mate and you not wanting him, or at least pretending you don’t,” Arianna said

“Speaking of my mate, what have you found out about him so far?” I asked

“Nothing much, just that he is a very successful businessman and owns a couple of businesses here in Italy and in the States, he is also a very low-key type of person and he never really goes out unless absolutely necessary,” she said

“And what about you Kate?” I asked turning to Kate

“I found out that he is a wolf and he recently moved here it’s not yet clear whether he is a lone wolf or a rogue and I am still trying to find out where he stays now and where he stayed before,” she said

“Oh how I wish he could be a rogue, like me” I said and Arianna rolled her eyes

“Just give him a chance, the guy clearly worships the ground you walk on. And I promise you he will love you more than Marcus ever did, it’s time to let the past go Sabina and you said it yourself that Marcus wanted you to find love and move on, Alex is dead let’s just forget about him and move on” Arianna said and I noticed how Kate shifted uncomfortably when Alex’s name was mentioned, the poor girl still loved the bastard

“Fine, I will see him tomorrow at his restaurant when I go for my meetings, and maybe we can make dinner plans” I said, I could never win any battle with Arianna

“Good that’s what I like to hear,” she said

“As long as he doesn’t turn out to be an Alpha or have any secrets we will be all good and no one will have to die,” I said getting up for the couch and heading to my room.

The following day I had a meeting with some of my cocaine suppliers and we had a new shipment coming in. I had to give the distribution order and all the measurements and how it was all supposed to be divided and shipped to our clients.

I was going to spend the whole day on my feet but that was never a reason for me to wear sneakers and jeans. I was known to be a very classy yet dangerous lady, and I was always in stilettos. I could be going to have a meeting with the world’s most dangerous mafia and be dressed like I was going for a regular meeting.

The reason for this was that I never wanted to lose touch with my female side simply because I was living in a ‘man’s world’. It was my world too and I could do whatever the f**k I wanted and I didn’t have to fit in with anyone. Most of these dangerous men kept their women locked up in their big houses and never allowed them to do anything besides shop and that’s why their women were such airheads, I had even considered running a class for these women to teach them how to get their own money and be independent.

After I was done bathing that morning I put on my light makeup as usual and then after that I put on my peach rib-knit dress that was off-shoulder and had a lace-up back. The dress hugged my curves and complimented my skin and long legs, it was like Fendi had me in mind when the dress was made. I put on my peach red bottoms and then coupled that with a Louis Vuitton bag and I walked out feeling like a million bucks.

I spent the whole day at the factory with some of my girls that were in charge of the shipments and the clients. My last meeting was at 4 pm and I had to meet up with a client at Pronto restaurant that was owned by my mate whose name I still didn’t know and that was all thanks to Arianna, she refused to tell me his name and made an excuse telling me that she also didn’t know. But what kind of a detective went out to get information about someone but forgot to ask the name? I knew she was lying and she probably wanted me to find out on my own.

When I got to the restaurant I took my usual seat, the last time I had been here I had just shot and killed Roberto while everyone watched. The police hadn’t come to me yet and that was probably because they were still growing the balls to come and ask me about it.

I ordered a salad and wine while I waited for the client because I was hungry and hadn’t eaten since morning. After my food arrived so did my client.

I kept looking around hoping to see the owner but he was nowhere to be seen. It was so hard to pay attention to anything that Antonio was saying because my eyes were everywhere and my heart wasn’t there either. After my meeting with Antonio ended, he left and I stayed there still hoping I could see the owner before I left otherwise my whole night would be ruined.

“Excuse me Miss...” said the female detective that I had a couple of run-in with

“Can I help you?” I asked I actually admired the lady for being in a tough industry like me an industry ruled by men and yet we still made it however I always forgot her name

“I just want to ask you a few questions about the last time you were here,” she said sitting opposite me

“I didn’t say you can sit please stand up and introduce yourself again I always forget your name, maybe,” I said and she shook her head and smirked but didn’t bother to stand up

“What do you know about the shooting of your business associate Roberto?” she asked

“I know...” I stopped talking as his scent hit me and I knew he was here and headed my way
