Saved By The Mafia Boss Chapter 1 01: SAVE ME

Ellise was miserable. She'd broken up with her cheating boyfriend two and a half weeks ago and it still hurt. She wouldn't get out of her room and her queen sized bed seemed to have become her favorite place on earth. Naturally, her best friend was worried about her and was desperately trying to bring her out of her shell.

"For the third time, no! That's not happening"

"Please, Ellie. I need you to come with me to Sandy's birthday party!" Anne, Ellise's best friend pouted, big blue eyes reflecting just how desperate she was.

Ellise groaned, burying her face in her pillow.

"My parents won't let me leave this house. Not after what happened to Maddie" she mumbled, hoping that Anne wouldn't try to persuade her any further.

"I talked to your parents. They agreed"

Ellise raised her head instantly, her eyes wide with both shock and disbelief.

"What?! You're lying!"

"Nope, I'm telling the truth"

"You've got to be kidding me, how the hell did you do that?!"

"Well, it took some effort but it was well worth it. You need to have a life, sweetheart"

Ellise groaned, frustrated. She didn't want to go to a birthday party especially because she didn't feel that she was a socialite. Attending parties and social events were not her thing. The last time she'd attended a party, she'd made a total fool of herself. She was a total light weight and attending parties meant getting drunk. So, parties were a big 'no' for her. But if her parents had agreed to let Anne take her out to a party, there was no way she would be able to escape this one.

"I'll come back to pick you up by six pm" Anne said with a smug look on her face

"Fine" her friend groaned, hitting her head on the pillow, frustrated.

"Yay!"

Ellise let out a sigh and turned to face the wall.

"Bye, bestie" Anne chirped and exited the room after Ellise mumbled a half-hearted response.

"Bye"

"Well, this is amazing. I am officially screwed!" Ellise exclaimed and threw a small fit on her bed, using her limbs to kick the air until she was exhausted.

....

"Wake up! Get up! It's time to get ready for the party, Ellie!"

Ellise jolted up from her bed, groaning when she saw that it was just Anne standing there. If looks could kill, she would be six feet under.

"I told you we would be leaving by six and it's 6:15! You're still in bed!"

"Oops?"

Ellise was forced to take her bath before getting dressed in a black knee-length dress. Anne helped her curl her hair a little and also helped her with her makeup.

"Now that's better! You no longer look so miserable"

Ellise rolled her eyes and picked up her purse.

Anne could be a bitch sometimes, regardless of the fact that she was Ellise's best friend. There were times when she would wonder how she put up with her bitchiness.

At the party, the whole place was buzzing with life. Loud music blasted from the large speakers, bodies swaying in accordance to the music.

Anne went ahead to wish Sandy a happy birthday, then they both headed to the drink section.

"Oh my God, is that Dave? He looks hot, check out his hair!" Anne gushed.

Ellise rolled her eyes as she watched her display her lovesickness.

Dave was one of the popular guys in senior year. He had the wealth, the looks and the charms. He basically slept with anything wearing skirt. Anne had been crushing on him since sophomore year.

"Go and talk to him if you want" Ellise said to her friend as she leaned on the counter.

"No! Don't you think I might stop breathing? He's the sexiest guy alive" Anne cried and Ellise chuckled.

"You sure are a love sick pup"

"You can't blame me, he's gorgeous"

"Well, it looks like you will be getting lucky tonight" Ellise said, smirking.

"What? What? What are you talking about?"

"He's heading this way" she said, clearly amused.

"No! No! What if I blush too much and forget to breathe when I get lost in his enchanting eyes and- and lose consciousness?!" She rambled.

"Calm down, just breathe. You read way too many romance novels" Ellise said, her lips curled in a mischievous smirk.

"Hello, princess" Dave said to her when he finally got to them.

"Hi, Dave" Ellise responded, smiling.

"Hi, beauty" he said to Anne.

"H-Hi Dave"

"You look stunning tonight" Anne blushed.

"Thanks"

"What's your name, princess?" He asked.

"Anne" she replied, her cheeks heating up.

"Beautiful name for a beautiful lady. Nice to meet you, Anne. Can I have this dance?"

Anne nodded timidly and

Dave grinned, taking hold of her hand before leading her to the dance floor.

'Great, now I'm left alone,'Ellise thought.

Sighing to herself, she went to the balcony. Then, she closed her eyes, feeling the cool breeze ruffle a few strands of hair on her face.

"El?"

She froze when she recognized the deep voice that had just resounded from the darkness behind her.

"Zack?" she said, turning to face her ex-boyfriend.

"Hey, El. You look beautiful"

"Thanks" she replied, turning away from him.

"I miss you" he whispered and she shook her head slowly.

"No, you don't"

"Trust me, I do. I'm sorry things ended up the way they did"

"Yeah I know"

"I'm really sorry for hurting you. I was wondering if you could give us a second chance"

Ellise closed her eyes, her fingers gripping the railings.

"No, I can't. You cheated on me multiple times" she choked out.

Tears filled his eyes, hurt clouding his golden brown eyes.

"I was drunk, El. It was a mistake."

"You weren't drunk when I caught you with Carmella" she replied bluntly, her eyes filling up with tears.

"I know, I am so sorry" he whispered.

His eyes were filled with tears, dark bags were under his eyes. She cleared her throat and blinked back her tears, finally regaining her composure.

"You don't have to apologise, Zack. I am over you" she said and walked away, leaving him to stare at her retreating figure with longing in his eyes.

An hour later, Ellise was starting to feel bored, especially since she felt out of place. She just wanted to go home and curl up on her bed. So, she went in search of Anne. But when she couldn't find her best friend, she decided to go home alone, despite the fact that it was nightfall already.

As she walked down the street with her black shawl around her shoulders, she was suddenly pinned to the wall roughly. Alarmed, she let out a scream, panic coating her veins.

She could perceive the stale odour of alcohol and weed coming from the drunk man who had just pinned her against the wall. He clamped a hand over her mouth as soon as she opened her mouth to scream for the second time.

"Let me go!" she cried with a muffled voice.

"Let me go!"

"Shut the hell up bitch!" He growled, taking off her shawl with his free hand. At this point, Ellise's panic had soared to a different level entirely, and she was almost hyperventilating.

She could only hope and pray for someone to save her. The man buried his face in the crook of her neck and she whimpered, her blood pounding against her ears.

No! No! This can't be happening.

Please save me!

Somebody! Anybody!

Help me please!

She squeezed her eyes shut, hot tears rolling down her pale face when she realized that no one was coming for her. "P-please" she whimpered, her eyes still tightly shut.

Suddenly, the man who was just about to assault her let out a loud groan and collapsed to the ground. Ellise sank to the ground, her heart still racing in her chest. Someone was squatting in front of her with a hood over his head. With teary eyes, she stared into the greenest eyes she'd ever seen and before she could thank her saviour, everything went black.

I stood at my mother’s open grave in the freezing rain, my heels sinking into the mud. The space beside me was empty. My husband, Hilliard Holloway, had promised to cherish me in bad times, but apparently, burying my mother didn't fit into his busy schedule. While the priest’s voice droned on, a news alert lit up my phone. It was a livestream of the Metropolitan Charity Gala. There was Hilliard, looking impeccable in a custom tuxedo, with his ex-girlfriend Charla English draped over his arm. The headline read: "Holloway & English: A Power Couple Reunited?" When he finally returned to our penthouse at 2 AM, he didn't come alone—he brought Charla with him. He claimed she’d had a "medical emergency" at the gala and couldn't be left alone. I found a Tiffany diamond necklace on our coffee table meant for her birthday, and a smudge of her signature red lipstick on his collar. When I confronted him, he simply told me to stop being "hysterical" and "acting like a child." He had no idea I was seven months pregnant with his child. He thought so little of my grief that he didn't even bother to craft a convincing lie, laughing with his mistress in our home while I sat in the dark with a shattered heart and a secret life growing inside me. "He doesn't deserve us," I whispered to the darkness. I didn't scream or beg. I simply left a folder on his desk containing signed divorce papers and a forged medical report for a terminated pregnancy. I disappeared into the night, letting him believe he had successfully killed his own legacy through his neglect. Five years later, Hilliard walked into "The Vault," the city's most exclusive underground auction, looking for a broker to manage his estate. He didn't recognize me behind my Venetian mask, but he couldn't ignore the neon pink graffiti on his armored Maybach that read "DEADBEAT." He had no clue that the three brilliant triplets currently hacking his security system were the very children he thought had been erased years ago. This time, I wasn't just a wife in the way; I was the one holding all the cards.

I was the titan of Wall Street until an indictment and an ankle monitor turned my penthouse into a gilded cage. To save face, I was forced into a marriage with Elza, a "mute" girl from the Schmidt family whom I treated as nothing more than a silent piece of furniture while my empire crumbled. The night I was poisoned at a high-society gala, a mysterious server in an oversized uniform saved my life with terrifying, clinical precision. They disappeared into the night, leaving me with a silver cufflink and a burning obsession to find the shadow who held my life in their hands. Back home, I took my frustration out on Elza, telling her she was "exhausting to look at" and "smelled like sickness" after her charity visits. Her own family treated her like a stray dog, trying to humiliate her at the next gala by dressing her in what they claimed was a cheap knockoff while whispering to the press that she was nothing but a high-end escort. "Stay out of my way," I would growl at her, never noticing the steel in her eyes. I sat at my table, watching my rivals' stocks plummet and wondering who "The Zero"—the legendary financial ghost—really was. I never suspected that the woman I ignored was the same one solving the equations that were currently burning Manhattan to the ground. The injustice peaked when Elza stood before the city's elite, not as a victim, but as a queen. She dropped over a hundred million dollars to buy back her family’s legacy, revealing a secret fortune that made my own empire look like pocket change. As I grabbed her wrist and saw the small red mole hidden beneath her watch, the truth hit me like a physical blow. The silent wife I had despised was the savior I had been hunting, and she was finally done playing the victim. "We have a lot to talk about, wife," I whispered, realizing I had been sleeping next to the most dangerous woman in the world.
