The Mafia Lover Is A Detective Chapter 1 One

Loretta rose from her bed as soon as the alarm screamed 5:00 am, she yawned loudly as she stretched her hands wide.

"Good morning world," She said as she arranged her bed, after the arrangements, she went into the bathroom to brush her teeth. She smiled in satisfaction as she rinsed her teeth with water.

"Another busy day," She murmured as she went through her wardrobe, searching for which cloth to wear. After a while, she picked a blue shirt and a black pants.

She went to her dressing table to redo her hair, she packed it into a ponytail. She applied light makeup on her face, then smiled. She stood up from the dressing table, heading towards the kitchen.

She opened the fridge when she got to the kitchen, expecting to find something to eat that morning. But she was disappointed at what she saw.

"Not again," She cried without tears, there was nothing in the fridge, not even a single fruit. She closed the fridge and went out of the kitchen, feeling frustrated.

"Who knows when next I'm going to fill you," She murmured as she carried her bag and went out of the house. She locked the door before leaving.

She had no car, which meant that she was going to take a taxi to the office. She flagged down a taxi and got into it.

"Good morning, ma'am," the taxi driver greeted.

"Good morning Sir," She replied and beamed a smile at him.

"Where to?" He asked, and she told him her destination, the driver then took off to her office.

"Loretta's here!" Ada screamed in joy when she saw Loretta, she ran quickly and hugged Loretta.

"Good morning, Loretta," Sam greeted as he opened his hand for a hug. Loretta smiled and hugged him.

"Good morning, Sam," She replied and broke the hug.

"We all miss you," Ada said and hugged Loretta again.

"And I missed you all too," Loretta replied. She was assigned to a job which took most of her time, she was given a leave for a week just to investigate the case of a murder.

Now, she was back with the results. She smirked proudly as she thought of her adventure while investigating the murderer secretly. She went through a lot, but got the information she needed.

She went to her table with Sam and Ada following behind her. She shook her head as she laughed at how childish her friends were acting around her.

She knew they missed her, but they were overdoing it, but she didn't blame them as who wouldn't miss someone like her. She finally sat down to eat the food that was already nearly arranged for her to eat from.

"How has work been?" Sam asked, starting up a conversation.

She looked deeply into his eyes, and she couldn't get what the intense stare was for, but she shrugged it off.

"Trust me, it has been better and more stressful." She replied gently, taking a sip of drink, but didn't touch any food.

"Why aren't you eating." Ada asked, outing her lips:

She did spend a lot of time making these for her, and she thought that she probably didn't like it.

"Nothing, I'm not just hungry, but it doesn't mean your food is not good." She replied with a smile, but still didn't touch a single piece of the food.

Her whole mind has been on her latest mission; she couldn't wait to report to her boss and tell her what she had gotten. She worked so hard and she was certain that she just bagged a promotion.

"Can't you tell us more about your work?" Ada asked with a full smile plastered on her face.

"That will be later guys since I have so much to say," She replied. Just then, Clara, Loretta's best friend, came in. She was sweating profusely, she walked over to Loretta's desk.

"What's wrong?" Loretta asked, looking alerted, Clara was panting heavily as she held her chest.

"Nothing much," Clara replied. "I was running because I was late for work," She added.

"Loretta, the boss requests for you to be in his office now," One of her colleagues said, Loretta hissed in annoyance while Clara chuckled at her friend.

"Get lost!" Loretta snapped and stood up from her seat, she wasn't sure what the boss wanted again. She got to his office and knocked, she was ushered to come in. "Good morning, Sir," She said.

"Take a look at this," The boss threw a file on his desk to her, Loretta took the file and read through it carefully. Her brows creased as she read through the file. She dropped the file back on the table when she was done reading it.

"Why am I being shown this, Sir?" She asked, hoping he wouldn't assign her to the task. It was a boring task, to investigate a house robbery. Isa tsk! She had always preferred dangerous and adventurous tasks, not some house robbery.

"You know what to do, detective Moretti," The boss replied.

"I don't know, Sir," Loretta replied, feigning ignorance. The boss exhaled loudly as he stared at it with interest.

"You don't know, or you don't want to investigate the house robbery?" He asked.

"I'll pass, Sir," She said. "I've just resumed work after a week of work that I was assigned to, don't you think I need to rest sir?" She asked. The boss smiled a little and brought out another file, he threw it on his desk.

"You've always wanted this," He said and smirked, Loretta frowned and picked up the file. She grinned widely as she read it. Finally, the task she has always wanted has been assigned to her.

"Is there any other thing I need to know about him?" She asked with a smirk.

"Read through the file, that's the only thing we could gather for now." He replied.

"Ethan smiths," she murmured as she fumbled with the file. "I'm coming for you..."

I sat on the edge of the examination table, the crinkle of the sanitary paper sounding like thunder in the sterile room. The doctor didn't even look at me as he confirmed the news: the pregnancy was over. My husband, Keyon, didn't answer my call. He just sent an automated text: "In a meeting." When I returned to our cold mansion, I found his iPad glowing with a message from his "muse," Katina. He was throwing her a secret gala tonight-on our third wedding anniversary. He told her he couldn't wait to escape the "boring" and "draining" atmosphere I created at home. Keyon didn't stumble in until 3 AM, smelling of Katina's perfume with a smear of red on his collar. When I handed him the divorce papers, he laughed in my face. He called me a "glorified housekeeper" with no skills and no future, promising I'd be back in three days begging for a subway ticket. He even bet his friends ten thousand dollars that I wouldn't survive a week without his name. He had his assistant cancel my credit cards and block my gate access before I even reached the end of the driveway. He wanted me to starve. He wanted me to crawl. He sat in his office, mocking the "desperate" woman who pawned her three-million-dollar wedding ring for scrap metal just to pay for a meal. I stood on the rainy curb, watching the man I had protected for three years treat my life like trash. He didn't know about the ultrasound I just threw in the bin. He didn't know that while he was calling me "dull," I was the one secretly writing the code that kept his billion-dollar empire from collapsing. As I slid into a cheap Uber, I opened a hidden, encrypted app on my phone. The screen refreshed to a dashboard for an account Keyon didn't know existed. The balance was ten figures long-the accumulated wealth of "Solaris," the world's most elusive tech genius. Keyon thinks he just evicted a parasite, but he's about to find out he just declared war on the only person who can hit "delete" on his entire life.

The heavy iron gates of the Wilderness Correction Camp groaned as they released me after three years of state-sponsored hell. I stood on the dirt road, clutching a plastic bag that held my entire life, waiting for the family that claimed they sent me there for "rehab." My brother, Brady, picked me up in a luxury SUV only to throw me out onto a deserted highway in the middle of a brewing storm. He told me I was a "public relations nightmare" and that the rain might finally wash the "stink" of the camp off me. He drove away, leaving me to limp miles through the mud on a snapped ankle. When I finally dragged myself to our family estate, my mother didn't offer a hug; she gasped in horror because my muddy clothes were ruining her Italian marble. They didn't give me my old room back. Instead, they banished me to a moldy gardener’s shack and hired a "babysitter" to make sure I didn't embarrass them further. My sister, Kaleigh, stood there in white cashmere, pretending to cry while clinging to her fiancé, Ambrose—the man who had once been mine. They all treated me like a volatile junkie, refusing to acknowledge that Kaleigh was the one who planted the drugs in my bag three years ago. They wanted to believe I was broken so they wouldn't have to feel guilty about the "wellness retreat" that was actually a torture chamber. I sat in the dark of that shed, feeling the cooling gel on the cigarette burns that covered my arms, and realized they had made a fatal mistake. They thought they had erased me, but I had returned with a roadmap of scars and a hidden satellite phone. At dinner, I didn't beg for their love. I simply rolled up my sleeves and showed them the price of their silence. As the wine spilled and the lies crumbled, I sent a single text to the only person I trusted: "I'm in. Let them simmer." The hunt was finally on.

I arrived at my uncle’s mansion looking like human trash, clutching a one-way bus ticket and a duffel bag stuffed with old newspaper. My aunt looked at me with pure disgust, as if she could smell the poverty on my skin, but they needed me for one thing: to be a sacrificial lamb. They told me I was getting married to Julian Sterling, a man the elite circles called a violent monster locked in a cage. My uncle forced me to sign away my soul to save their failing fortune, while my cousin Kayla laughed and threw a torn dress at my feet, calling me a "rat from the Rust Belt." At the Sterling estate, the nightmare only deepened. Julian’s stepmother treated me like a horse she was forced to buy, ordering the staff to "burn off" my hair before locking me in the West Wing. I was thrown into a padded cell with a man who lunged at me, his heavy chains rattling against the floor as he roared with an animalistic rage that had already killed two nurses. They thought I was a pathetic, uneducated girl who "didn't read so good." They didn't know I had extorted two million dollars from my uncle before walking out the door, or that I was secretly recording every slap and insult they threw at me for future leverage. I huddled in the corner of that dark cell, letting them watch me tremble on the security feeds. I let Julian’s sister strike me with a riding crop and splash water in my face, playing the role of the clumsy, sobbing idiot to perfection. But the moment the cameras looped, the scared girl vanished. I pinned the "monster" to the floor, cut the neural tracking chip out of his neck with a hidden scalpel, and whispered into his ear as his blue eyes finally cleared. They thought they were sending a lamb to the slaughter. They had no idea they were sending a wolf to hunt a beast.
