What are they doing here? I asked her, I asked them to stand there while I eat, in case I need their help, I don't need to call them. Everyone go back to work.

Leonardo dressed in casual wear entered my room without knocking, he look so handsome and I wonder how it will feel when I am under him, gosh I want to feel his strong muscles against my soft body so badly.

I took advantage of the situation to feel his chest. I love every part of his body, I am beginning to feel some sweet sensation between my legs. h

Leonardo's pov For the past two weeks now things are a little shaky, there have been so many attacks on us. First, it was Annie, those mother f**kers have the gust to hijack my ship, they attacked my club in Los Angeles, it was soo bad that innocent people were killed in the process. The Andrianos are also into petroleum and someone has the guts to attack their men during a transaction, this is not the doing of Alexander the boss of the Russian mafia, the person behind the attack is binding behind local gangs. The information we've gathered so far proves he hires the locals to do the dirty work for him but he doesn't show his face to them. We have so many enemies that I don't know who is really behind this, but we are certain that all these attacks are not coincidences. I have a business conference and also a meeting to attend in Italy and I am not going to leave Annie behind. I told her about the business meeting and conference but I left the mafia party and also my mission out,

My mum's words, not mine, he opens our doors for us when we are getting out of the car and when we are getting in the car. We have our security team always following us but my God is acting as a driver and a bodyguard which is wired. My mum said he is behaving that way because he doesn't want to risk my safety. She said something bad happened to me when I was a baby and my father still blames himself for what happened that's why he wants to be in charge of my safety. We went to a fancy hotel for our breakfast, I love the company of my parents, even though my dad doesn't talk much, I how protective he is. When we entered the restaurant, everyone was staring at us, I f
Annies pov I left the clubhouse with my parents, and my brothers and Leonardo left for the office. Bella and her Aunt were banned from ever coming to the clubhouse. They didn't have membership cards but they rather came with a friend who is a member, they were allowed into the clubhouse because their friend is also sleeping with the manager who is a married man. My mum fired him as well and his little whore was also banned. My mum called her public relation office to get his team to work, she sent to video of what happened to them. "Annie what do you intend to do to that girl and her family," my mum asked me, you will see. I am proud of you Annie, in this world, you don't have to be soft, you have to prove yourself from today onwards, let the world know you are the true mafia, Princess, you are not someone anyone can mess with. If you create that fear in the mafia world that's the only way you and your man can be at peace, if they see you be weak, you will always be their target. Yo

The MC welcomed our family, "Let's welcome the Andriano and the Dicosta family" He made an announcement, and everyone sited stood up, I don't think that was necessary because our appearance has already spoken for us. The hall became so quiet after the announcements, but the people remain standing till we made ourselves comfortable, before they all got sited. Mum, why is everyone standing? I asked my mum undertone," It is a gesture of respect". She said, when our table was served, an elderly man came along and tasted all the dishes on the table, my Mum saw the confusion on my face.

Yes, Dad I do, I want him to finish what he started. "We are all going to watch that bitch then," Annie said. After fifteen minutes, Mike called and informed me that everything is set. We walked to the dark room, no one and she started shouting, "Who is there?"
