Iris: The Mafia’s Bride Enemy From Within
Arthur's POV I was shocked about everything that was going on. She was my sister, yet she didn't tell me all this until now? I was sad about it. However, when she told me she had more confessions to make, I had to swallow what I was feeling, and fix my eyes on her.“Arthur, please, I'm sorry…” the way she cried was hurting me. What did she want to tell me, and was it that bad that she couldn't speak up?My eyes stared at her with worry, my heart pounding as I inhaled to calm down. I urged her to tell me what it was that she wanted to say. She sniffed, using her hands to clean her eyes. She couldn't even look me in the eyes, and it seemed like the matter was more serious than I thought.Her actions only made me feel more nervous. I wished I could read her mind, so she wouldn't have to say it.“Arthur, I did something terrible. I gave Kelvin my…” she trailed off, not knowing how I would feel about what she was about to say.I urged her to tell me, and she confessed that she had been

Iris's POVI looked at my reflection once more in the mirror that stood in front of me, a strand of my hair was out of place, so I reached out for the brush lying motionlessly on the dressing table and brushed the hair to rhyme with the others. I sighed and put on some peach lipstick on my upper lips and smacked my lips together to even out the lipstick.I sighed once more and did my favorite eyeliner, my hands shook as I did it and a smile curled at the corner of my lips as I subconsciously remembered the tip Anna have taught me on how to successfully do make-up without ending up murdering anyone around me out of frustration. My smile faded as I remembered the situation I was in.'What a shame.' I murmured to myself.Arthur moved on so easily and here I was finding it difficult to move on.My phone vibrated, and I picked it up to see who sent me a message, turned out Kelvin was already outside waiting for me. I looked at my reflection one more time and dabbed my face with a bit of po

Iris POVIt's been a week since Dad has consented to the marriage, and I couldn't help but look forward to the following months when I'd be free. I maintained my composure at home and didn't do anything out of order to not alert my Dad or make him suspect that I was dying to leave the house.As usual, I proceeded to the kitchen as time for dinner was near to make preparations for dinner and my sisters were there already.“Look who's here.” My sister teased.I chuckled and pinched the bridge of her nose while she giggled.“What's for dinner?” I asked nonchalantly.“We we're hoping you'd choose what we'll cook tonight, seeing that you're in a good mood.”“I'm always in a good mood, let's make some lasagna.”My sisters agreed after a few minutes of arguing with each other and then bickering followed by light jokes. The process was one my mother had taught me and I perfected by watching a few movies online, but it was wholesome having to cook with my siblings. Cooking was the one thing

Arthur's POVI tapped my fingers rhythmically on the desk as I hummed a song to myself.it was a busy day at work as I had to go through a huge pile of paperwork's and also sign some documents, I was tempted to take a break, but that would only add to my work, so I just sorted hem out. I sighed, leaned back and took a long sip from my coffee and savored the taste. I've been consuming a huge amount of coffee these days, as it keeps me awake and helps to organize my almost shattering thoughts.The sound of my office doorknob being opened alerted me someone was in and the loud clanging of heels signalled that it was someone important as I had ordered my secretary not to let anyone in.“Arthur.” A feminine voice drawled.A smile appeared at the curve of my lips as I lifted my head to see Anna in her full beauty, she winked at me and I shook my head slightly.She's the only one keeping me sane these days and I couldn't be more grateful that I had her as a sister, though she was troublesome

Arthur's POV I'm not sure of what reaction to give to Kelvin's mastery of lies, I could only marvel at him. I noticed his eyes were fixated on mine, and he didn't flinch, though he looked tensed, yet he was able to perfectly mask it. Our training wasn't in vain, and he was using it to his advantage at the moment. It was just hard having to stand before the one person I would lay down my life for and watch him betraying me without blinking an eye. He chuckled nervously and ran his fingers through his hair; an action of his that signified that he was gaining more confidence and would lie through his teeth. I sighed quietly and was grateful that I knew him really well; hence I would have an internal conflict even with all the evidence I've gathered against him. We were sworn into brotherhood and have gone through a series of hell for one another, we've dined with demons and betrayed the devil himself just to support one another, but his betrayal hurt more than the scars I've amassed

Iris's POVMy phone vibrated and I excitedly checked my inbox. It was a message from Kelvin, stating to meet him a few blocks away from the house. Dad wasn't home, so I simply left him a message with my sisters. I ensured that I looked my best though it wasn't some sort of date, I hated being looked down upon because of my appearance.I met Kelvin exactly where he said he'd be, and I hopped into the car, he didn't fail to compliment my look as usual, and I returned the compliment as well.He played my favorite downtown song while I childishly devoted the snacks he stacked in the car for me, it was a blissful moment as anyone who saw us would inarguably agree that we were the perfect couple.It reminded me of the times spent with Arthur, but I pushed the thought aside and decided to not only live the moment but enjoy it.Arthur was bad news, and the last thing I'd want is to ruin my happiness myself. Kelvin kept cracking me up with jokes that I didn't realize we were at our destinatio

We joked around a little more before they began to dress me in the perfect gown I had bought.I looked stunning in my wedding gown and my make-up was to die for, I almost teared up seeing my reflection in the mirror, but my sisters were quick to remind me not to ruin my make-up, and it made me even more emotional.

Iris's POVI struggled to find a voice inside of me to scream.There were screams in my head, my scream, and doubts in my heart, my train of thoughts began to crumble and I could feel the effect.I kept my eye fixated on Arthur and almost slapped myself for daydreaming, but reality was cruel enough to remind me that I was conscious and sane. I shifted my gaze from him for a moment and saw what had become of my happy ending.My dream wedding which was perfect few minutes ago was still perfect, a perfect walking disaster.People screamed at the top of their voices and, coupled with the ear-piercing gunshots been fired, I almost ran mad, but I became surprisingly calm.

Seeing that it would take ages before I'd wriggle my hands out of them and by then Knight would have murdered me or found out what I was trying to do, I decided to do it the old-fashioned way. Though it was a painful process, I had no choice, so I dislocated the bones of my thumb and bit my bottom lips in a bit not to yell out in pain, it was successfully dislocated, and I slipped it out of the rope.

Iris: The Mafia’s Bride Danger
Iris's POVDays had passed by, and I still couldn't muster enough courage to face Arthur, there are times I'd get up and even go as far and unlocking my door with the aim of going straight to his room and clarifying things to him or even forcefully demand for an explanation, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Most importantly; I was scared and confused at the same time, I wasn't pregnant with Kelvin because I didn't sleep with him and I didn't know how old the baby is so I could confirm my doubts about the paternity.Given the circumstances and happenings around me lately and the better part of my life, things aren't always as they seem, there might be a mix-up somewhere or this might be a set-up but my morning sickness and constant nausea coupled with the fact that I haven't seen my period for months now confirmed that I was pregnant.I finally ate after starving for a few days, but I didn't step my foot out of the room and only allowed the maids to drop it by the doorstep,

Arthur’s POV I watched in awe as a fight now ensued between Sebastian and kelvin, they got verbal, and it was an eyesore, yet I was more than willing to watch them, this provided an opportunity for me to look for a means to escape, but their noises were ear-piercing, so I had to painstakingly listen in a bid to get some information out of them. There was no way I would leave the place easily or in one piece unless I got rid of them first, but that seemed like an impossible task. I decided to worry about them later, as Iris was in danger and no one would be able to save her. Things are even worse as Kelvin, whom I thought loved her, could stoop as low as using her as bait against me, I didn’t regret coming after Iris after knowing his true intentions. Though Iris had been around me long enough to see things were, yet I fear that she was too petite and wasn’t built to go through this sort of hell. We all present in that room had dined with the devil himself and gotten our hands st
Iris: The Mafia’s Bride Choose one
Arthur's POV“Now, I might just spare your life if you tell me where the secret treasure is" Kelvin said after a round of punching me wherever his fists landed.I looked up at him and my face broke into a smile.“Is that all you got? What a disappointment”He bent down and gave me an upper to my jaws. My brain rattled around in my skull and I suddenly felt a sharp pain building up in my thoracic region. I knew I wouldn't last much longer, but still, I would rather die than just give out the location of my family heirloom.“We knew you will be a hard nut to crack, and as such, we have prepared various gifts for you.”Kelvin moved to the table and picked up the landline, punched a number and put it to his ear. The phone beeped, then it got picked up on the other side. Kelvin paused and replied.“Bring the toys now, let's watch him play”I knew I just got into bigger trouble, but I was more prepared to die than give out the location.The doors opened and a man with a Russian build came i
Iris: The Mafia’s Bride Why did you do this?
Arthur's POVI could see Kelvin, then Sebastian and Knight. No way, I was probably seeing visions. Maybe the guys had tampered with my brain, perhaps I was hallucinating. Kelvin came forward and poured a glass of ice-cold water on me. It chilled to the spine. I was certain I heard footsteps, but they were all here?“Wakey wakey”Sebastian and Knight walked towards the chair where I was strapped with leather belts like a feral animal.“Oh forgive my ungentlemanly attitude, allow me to perform a little introduction here” he said mockingly.“Sebastian, Dad meet Arthur, the prodigal son”The word dad suddenly sounded differently to his ears.“Arthur, meet Sebastian and meet my father; Knight. I've heard you guys have gotten acquainted”.I was shocked, and could feel bitterness at the same time. I felt adrenaline rushing through me, and I could feel anger and disgust boiling in my bloodstream. I literally felt like killing the trio; like tearing them to pieces and feeding them to street do

The tracker showed his location was in another state, and it was a long ride down there. All through I repeated the line of action and expected results to my men and contemplated calling for backup, but I didn't want to cause a huge scene or attack unnecessary attention to myself. Kelvin was smart and would try to find his way out of this, but I smirked knowing that I was smarter and a step before him, I cocked my gun and ensured I carried enough ammo with me. We got to the state hours later and headed straight to the location the tracker was pointing at, I stopped my men midway and suggested we take different routes and arrive there ar the same time, in case Kelvin had already positioned his men to watch over any suspicious activity ongoing.
