Alexander's POV “I am going to get my wedding dress *weird emoji*”.I stared at the message and did not know when I had started to smile.“Boss, are you listening, I said the operation in two famous countries in Africa turned out successful”, Roderick repeated. I had put him in charge of most of the cocaine movements in Africa, and I was happy that most of his operations were successful. It made me the most powerful Mafia boss to ever exist. I operated world-wide. No continent was left untouched.“Uhm yes, you were talking about the successful operations in Africa”, I said. “I got a little distracted, you may continue.”Darn it! I was in the middle of an important business meeting at my extremely huge mansion by the mountains where I usually held dangerous Operation meetings. I was supposed to be fully focused at the meeting so as to not miss any important detail. But here I was smiling at some message Olivia sent. I should not have given her my personal contact. This was a mistake.

“If it's not important, I don't expect you to text me. Tell Mia to pick a dress for you if you're so indecisive. If you're still uncertain after asking Mia, you can buy all three dresses. I don't care.”I kept rereading the texts to see if I read it wrong, but each time I realised that I read it correctly.‘This arrogant man’, I thought, fuming. I blamed myself for asking for his input. He was always self-centred, and I should have known better than to text him. I made a mistake to be excited for a moment. But now, I suddenly missed Ryan.“What's wrong, beauty?”, the boutique owner asked with concern when she saw my smile had dropped. I tried to feign a smile. I could not let some words that Alexander said to me get me visibly annoyed.“It's nothing”, I said.“You don't like the dress?”, the boutique owner asked, walking over to me. She was so sweet.“No, no”, I said. “The dresses are beautiful. I am just having a tough time picking the best.”“How about we just say our favourite”,

Olivia's POVI decided to have a look around my soon-to-be husband's mansion, knowing that it would soon be ours.The living room I stood in had shiny crystal chandeliers, marble floors, plush carpets and priceless art works. Everything reflected Alexander's extravagant taste and lifestyle.I was about to climb up the stairs when Mia came down. She smiled at me, but the smile did not reach her eyes. “Hi ma-I mean miss Olivia. Would you like to get your wedding dress now? Mr. Alexander told me it was time to go for your wedding dress.”“Why are you Alexander's personal assistant?”, I blurted. “I mean don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with you. It's just that Alexander is a powerful Mafia boss who doesn't care about women, so I'm curious about knowing why he made you his personal assistant.”She looked down at the floor and started to cry. I felt bad. I didn't mean to sound condescending, I was genuinely curious as to why Alexander had employed Mia to be his personal assistant.

Alexander's POVWhen my dad told me that I would have to get married to the most famous CEO’s daughter, Olivia, I felt like insects were crawling on my skin.“It is high time you settled with a woman of our standard”, my dad stated firmly. “You will be getting married to Olivia Adams, daughter of Mr. Adams, the CEO of Microsoft corp.”Olivia was not my type of person. I had gone to her family dinner on several occasions, and I had gotten to see her. She was calm, she was beautiful, she was ambitious, but she just was not sexy enough. All the women I had ever been with, although they never lasted and were just toys to me, were sexy, hot, and kinky in bed. They let me express myself the way I would like in bed, I could be my truest animalistic self when I was with them. I did not take the act softly. But, before I went into the bedroom with any woman I slept with, I did well to warn them about my preferences, especially to the ones that were not sexual workers but threw themselves at m

My throat was so dry that it was difficult to utter a word.“Uhm—”, I said slowly. He was too close to me, way too close. I could feel some part of his body touch me, the parts of Ryan I would have loved touching me.“You're lucky that I respect your parents, there are the reasons I haven't done a number of things to you”, he said, his eyes never leaving mine.I wondered what he meant by ‘a number of things’, as chills went down my spine.I was about to ask what he meant by doing a number of things to me, but I saw two men in black coats walking into the room from the corner of my eyes.My eyes went back to Alexander who seemed to have noticed that my eyes had wandered, and had also felt the presence of other people in the room.“Is this a new toy?”, one of them asked. He had not seen my face yet. Clearly he did not know who I was. “You have so many Suki, you keep adding to your collections daily.”I began to fume. 'Suki' was the plural form of 'Suka', a Russian term for 'bitch'. A de

My mother’s voice, a chilling echo of impending doom, haunted me throughout the day. "Marry Alexander, or you're disowned. Father's decision, final." A threat? Or a cold, hard truth? Mother wasn't one for empty gestures, and the fear clawed at me. Eighteen days until I became Alexander's wife, eighteen days to save Ryan.Home felt like a refuge, yet the exhaustion was crushing – the weight of work, the weight of this impending marriage. I took a cold shower to try to release some of the stress I felt, then I decided to begin some work on my laptop.Few hours later, a maid’s voice shattered the peace. "Ms. Olivia, a lady, awaits you in the living room.”I walked up to my door, opening it. “What last?”, I inquired.“I do not know her name, but she did come here yesterday”, the maid said.Mia, again? The groan that escaped me was primal. What did she want this time?“Did a man come with her?”, I asked.“No”, the maid replied, shaking her head. “She came alone just like yesterday.
