Game With The Mafia King 63
Nerthus The gala dinner is by far the worst engagement I ever had.As I try hard not to faint due to my rising fever, I try to hold the pieces of my heart together that beats painfully in my chest at me being ignored by Arawn.But the highlight of it is surely reached as he leaves me standing like a moron to go talk to some blonde. She seems to be elated at him talking to her as I can tell from her annoying giggle. I sip my champagne as I keep myself from jumping her and tear out her badly done extensions.“Look what the cat brought for us to play with.”I shudder as I turn to look at Jensen but I’m surely feeling more confident to face him here than locked in a car.“That would make you what? A pet snake?”He laughs, and I roll my eyes, concentrating back on my angry company as I find him glaring at me.So, blondie isn’t that interesting.Jensen starts to talk again as I interrupt him, raising my hand. “Please, my head is killing me. I can’t take your annoying voice now.”“Oh, come

Nerthus I don’t know how long I have still been holding the phone to my ear, even if he hung up right after he had fired me.“No! I’m dissolving your contract. You aren’t worth all this trouble.”Not worth the trouble.“No, Arawn. You can’t do that. Please, I’ll-” I try to plead.Oh my God, I can’t get back working as an Escort. He disintegrated my entire client base. “You will what?” He growls, chuckling slightly. “See, that’s exactly the problem. I engaged you because I thought you were able to keep apart business and your silly feelings. But I seem to have thought wrong.”“This is not true. I told you that I was only doing my job. I-”“Well, not good enough.” He says before finally ending the call.And what a lovely way to end it all.Not good enough.Wow!As I finally get out of my paralyzed state, I move to sit down on the bar stool beside me, fearing that I might faint on the spot.Taking a deep breath, I dial Jenna’s number, my heart blooming as she picks up.“Hey, ho, butte

Nerthus “Owen, right?”A handsome man with black hair and shiny brown eyes turns around with a smile.He is not as handsome as him, but I will ignore that. His tailored black tuxedo is a perfect wear for his lean body, and even with my heels, he is a few inches taller than me.Not as tall as him, but I will be ignoring that. “Ah, Aria. What a pleasure meeting you.” His deep voice matches his manly face as he puts a featherlight kiss on my knuckles.I make a small courtesy before he opens his car door for me to get in.Owen seems to be a bit of a touchy type, even if he never touches me inappropriately or creeps me out.Like a real gentleman. “So, Aria. Luciana said I would have been very lucky to get an appointment with you.”“Did she?” I laugh while he flashes me his pearly whites.“What makes you so special? Other than you being absolutely stunning?”Holding a hand on my chest, I act touched by the compliment. “Thank you. Well, I was about to end my happy career as an escort as

Nerthus “Danny, hi.” I move my hands in my pockets questioningly, opening my jacket with the movement. “What are you doing here?”He shrugs, smiling slightly. “You didn’t come to game with me.”“Oh, sorry, baby. I was so busy with the events that I had to go to with Arawn that I totally forgot.”He nods, shifting on his feet. “It’s okay. That’s why I brought a movie.”“Awesome!” I say, inviting him up with me.“I hope there are a lot of funny scenes in it.”He chuckles as he gets in behind me, following me to the elevator. “Actually, it is full of it.”“Nice!”As his usual bubbly self, he talks non-stop until we are in my apartment.“Just feel at home. You know, as usual!” I snicker and turn around just in time to see him jumping onto the couch.“Sugar or salt?” I ask as he is putting the movie on.“Sugar! Sugar! Sugar!” He says funnily as if he was rapping it.I laugh, putting the corn into my popcorn machine. “Sugar it is.”As I settle into the couch next to him, I feel like wantin

Arawn I’m tapping my fingers nervously against the steering wheel, as I wait for Danny to come out of that woman’s building.I have to admit that I felt my heart exploding in my chest as I figured that Danny was lying to me because he was in her flat. And God did my body react to it when I finally got to hear her voice again.As if it wasn’t bad enough that I had it haunting me night by night, I was now also yearning for it.Also, that stupid cancelation fee for the girl that I had booked for tonight is bugging me beyond measure.Great. Just great!I sigh deeply as I see him finally exiting the building, running towards my car.“Woah!” He shouts as he opens the door to my new Audi. “Is this a R8, bro?”I chuckle, as I push the button to start the engine and watch him get into the car. “Yeah.”“Awesome! I wanna drive it!” He says, still looking around while putting on his seatbelt.The car fills with his perfume mixed with the sweet one of Nerthus, and I groan.You have to be fucking

Arawn I watch Danny walk up the stairs to the front door of his house and disappear into it before I take my phone out. As I don’t really know what to say or to ask, I turn it in my hands for several minutes, before I dial Dario’s number. “Boss, is everything alright?” “Yeah,” I murmur, taking a deep breath. “You didn’t tell me about the night you picked up Nerthus. Is there something I should know?” He doesn’t answer straight away as he is probably weighing out his options. “No, I don’t think so, boss.” What’s with them and their loyalty towards her? Even if I want to be mad at it, it actually has me smiling. “Is there something she asked you not to tell me?” I push again, lighting my cigarette. “Like something that happened that evening?” He clears his throat, my patience running thin. “Yes, boss.” “What is it?” “I didn’t get much of it. But I got a call from Jenna, who asked me to go to the Sin Palace and pick up her friend.” “Jenna called you?” “Yes, apparently Nerthu

Nerthus “Don’t you look absolutely gorgeous?”I giggle as I reach Owen, who is waiting for me outside my alibi building. “Right back to you, Mr.”His smile is more handsome than I remembered as he greets me with a kiss on my cheek. I gasp as he holds open the passenger door of his sporty car and force a smile as it immediately makes me think of Arawn.Damn it.“Wow! Are you driving today? How sexy.” “Thought I would show you that I’m not all about money.”I laugh, as he starts the car. “By taking the Porsche and leaving your golden Lamborghini at home?”“I would act offended,” He grins, shaking his head. “But I actually like your sense of humor very much.”“Oh, thank you.” I smile, leaning my head on my seat to look at him.“So, how was work in your little company in the last few days?”“Very boring, actually. How was the bakery?”I hum, looking out onto the street. “Very sugary.”“Sugary?” He chuckles, and I grin. “That’s all you came up with?”“I’m sorry, I really couldn’t help bu

Nerthus I cringe at the fact that I am more afraid of Arawn getting to know about my date than of Danny making a scene that could embarrass me in front of Owen. “Danny? What are you doing here?” I hiss, as he looks at me wide-eyed. “What am I doing here? What is this bougie doing here?” At least he is so young that Owen will not mistake him for a jealous lover. “What is happening? Who is this?” Owen asks, looking at me confused. “He-” “I’m her husband’s brother,” Danny shouts, causing me to stare at him wide-eyed. Oh God! “Ex! Ex-husband. Danny, what are you doing here?” He lifts his phone for me to see. “I wanted to watch another movie.” Letting my arms slump, I turn around. “I’m so sorry!” Owen forces a smile, shaking his head but I can see how cringe this is. “Danny, take these and go upstairs. We will talk about this.” I hiss, passing him the keys. He takes them reluctantly, walking to the entrance of my building crestfallen. “I’m sorry! I would have invited you ups
