Chapter 4

Three days went by slowly. It was hard for me breathing through the door knob,the space where the key was. I would go there put my mouth and try to breath. I was dehydrated and hungry and suffocating but I had no choice to complain or bang at the door because it means instant death. I was also mourning my dear Luna. Reminiscing the good times we spent together,the number of times she saved me and the way I had planned to propose to her but all these things can't be fulfilled anymore. She's gone and no longer here.

The number of kids we planned on having, the kind of wedding we wanted. Everything's gone. She was the reason I joined the mafia gang,to earn more. I have no BSC neither did I have a quality education to get a proper job. It was the only thing I could do. I had no parents to rely on or call for help.

I was lonely.

I leaned back and rested my head on the wall until I heard some footsteps and the door was opened. The bright light shone into my eyes almost blinding me. I covered my eyes with my palm. I was jacked up aggressively again and taken out of the room. My eyes adjusted to the light and I opened them.

I was taken inside the bathroom and forced to bath and brush my teeth. My legs were shaking as I stood in the bathroom. They stood still watching me like I'd try to escape. I drank some water from the tap before proceeding to bath and brush. I finished and was pushed out naked. I was given a towel which I used in drying my body and the next thing they gave me which shocked me was a suit. An expensive one for that matter. I looked at the guards who were with me and one threw the suit at me.

"Wear it." He said in a husky voice.

I wore it and they gave me a leather shoe which was removed from the box. I also shuffled my legs into them.

They held me and dragged me out aggressively. I was taken into a huge hall that has been decorated in pink and white with lots of balloons and pictures of me and Mia standing out at the front. There were people dressed elegantly who sat down waiting for the event to begin. I'm sure there were also part of the Mafia family.

"What's going on?" I asked and nobody answered. I was pushed to the altar and I stood still.

I gagged when I saw a priest in his robe walking in and standing above where I was.

"What's going on?" I asked again.

"Your wedding." One of the guards said and all I did was to laugh nervously.

"You must be joking. What wedding? What's going on here?" I almost yelled.

"You better keep shut before I blow your head off." He warned and I kept my cool.

Before I knew it the keyboardist began to do his thing and Mia walked in in a wedding gown with Marcello. I was shocked. This is true. This girl is going crazy.

She walked up to the altar. I tried to walk out but I was held my one of the guards.

"Leave me alone. What's going on here? What's the meaning of this rubbish?" I yelled. One of the guards brought out a gun from his trouser pocket and placed it by my neck.

"This is what is going on." He smiled and I cooperated instantly.

"We are here for the union of Mia Marcello and Angelo. Angelo." The priest repeated.

"Mia! Do you take Angelo as your husband till death do you apart?" The priest asked.

"Yes." She answered.

"Angelo! Do you take Mia as your lawfully wedded wife during thick and thin,in happiness and sadness,till death do you apart?" He asked and I shaked my head violently.

"This is not right. I can't marry her. This is absurd." I yelled.

One of the bodyguards shot the gun upwards and i bowed.

"Yes. I'll marry her." I screamed.

We exchanged rings and everyone clapped.

"What would you gain from this? Why did you do this to me?" I asked when I and Mia were taken out of the hall to change for the reception. There were armed bodyguards with us that's why I haven't attacked her. I'll make sure I kill her with my bare arms.

"I like you Angelo and I'll go to any length to get what I want." She kissed my lips and i pushed her away. I got a punch from one of the bodyguards and I fell down.

"How dare you touch my husband?" She slapped him.

I stood up and rubbed my cheeks.

"I'm sorry sir. Boss told me to beat him up whenever he attacks you." He explained and I clenched my fist.

"Go change baby. I'll be waiting." She said and I was taken away violently again. I was forced to change into another suit and forced out.

We slowed danced with lots of guns pointed at me. Everyone clapped and cheered.

After being forced to do literally everything,the wedding was over and we were taken home.

I walked into the house and stood still.

"You think you could embarrass us today?" My boss asked and I bowed.

"I'm sorry sir. This is absurd. Your daughter killed my girl and the next thing you arranged was a marriage with me and your daughter. Are you in your right senses boss?" I asked and my boss hit me in the face with his hand. My nose bleed as the ring and the force of his hand hit my nose.

"Are you okay? How dare you talk to me like that? The fact that you're married to my daughter doesn't mean you'll talk to me anyhow. You're a nobody and a mere errand boy who I send on death mission." He yelled.

"Then kiss my ass. I won't do this anymore. I'll go report you to the police." I said and his son Marco laughed.

"Should I call you foolish or naive?" He asked and I stopped in my tracks.

"You're in my territory and you're threatening to call the police. Go!" He said and i became scared when many bodyguards came in. They were physically fit,I mean they had lots of abs and muscles and were huge

"What's the meaning of this? What are you trying to do?" I asked and he clapped. They launched at me and I was given the beating of my life. I heard Mia's voice but I didn't know what she was talking about. All I knew was I was going to die from all of this beatings. There was no way I was going to survive it. I was beaten everywhere,and it's hurts so bad.

I was released and Mia dragged me upstairs to her room.

"Tell him to maintain his lane or I'll kill him." Marco yelled.

She placed me on the bed and tend to my wounds. Even though she acts like a psychopath she has a soft spot,for me.

"Why would you talk to dad and Marco like that?" She asked.

I was to weak to speak so I just moved a little.

"If you want to live here,don't talk to my dad with disrespect." She said and left me.

Seems she has some mental issues. Sometimes she's nice and kind and sometimes she's someone you have to run away from.
