Lonely Mafia Shall We Love Chapter 132
“Without an ounce of remorse or hesitation,” Asher immediately says. “You have to understand that I don’t let people cross my clan or me more than once. Ash does not. The only reason why Henry left the building alive the day of your moving out was because you were there. If you had not, Henry would be dead or held in my headquarters.”“Why did I make you change your mind?”Asher reclines and retracts his hand. “Because I wanted to hide Ash from you for a little longer.”Olivia curls her hand around Asher’s wrist. “You don’t have to hide Ash from me.”Asher opens his mouth to reply but Adam interrupts them.“Boss, any instruction for the body?” Adam asks and crouches to rummage through Henry’s pocket, retrieving a phone.“Get rid of it as usual and clean the place as well. Have some bribing at the ready in case the police get involved in some ways,” Asher says, the lollipop back in his mouth.“The car’s ready,” Walter adds after joining them. “We have a team checking Olivia’s apartment

Olivia often thought that a rejection could be the worst answer she could get, however the complete silence that trails after her question is suffocating and she wants to renege on her word but before she does, Asher finally speaks.“Because he must believe love and sentiments like those would make someone weak and vulnerable, and to some extent he was right,” Asher says, the nails of Olivia’s fingers boring into her palms. “In my world, loving someone puts a target on their back. They can become leverage against you or have you question your own decisions.”“Do you think the same as him?” Olivia wonders.“I used to.”Olivia straightens up at the words, unfolding her fingers to grip at her joggers. “What changed?”Asher stares at Olivia, as though pondering on his response and the gaze is the same as before, Olivia recognizes. The muted adoration Asher had looked at Olivia when they were in her bed is here again, and the hope ignites alive.“I did,” Asher says, eyes never straying awa

When Asher hears Olivia argue with Adam and whine to him to back her up a faint smile tug on his lips. He wets his lips with an amused smile and starts answering her questions.“One: if you mean on an everyday basis, only me and my family live here. People working for me are given an apartment or house when they do so they can live outside of the headquarters if they wish to,” Asher begins.Olivia’s smile grows into a grin when Adam glares at her after Olivia whispers an ‘I told you so’ to him.“Some come to stay here for a while if their safety is at stake or if they simply want to, it’s an open house for the clan’s members. We have a second one like this but deeper in the forest and closer to the mountains, a couple of hours away from the main base.”“What is that second house used for?” Olivia inquires as she fully curls her arm around Asher’s when the latter makes no objection at his elbow being held.“We use that second one as a temporary home for the hybrids we help until all th

Their gazes meet and Mia interlocks her and Olivia’s fingers together as she would always do whenever Olivia would be upset or scared.“They don’t, Olivia. They really don’t,” Mia says and a reassuring smile curves her mouth. “Even close friends. You wouldn’t let me do that with you.”“No, of course not,” Olivia says and the relief that rushes through her is dizzying.“There you have your answer.”“This is… This is kinda scary,” Olivia mumbles, and tears well up in her eyes, the fear laced with her earlier realization clawing at her chest again.“It’s not—” She draws in a sharp breath, struggling to breathe past the lump clogging, her throat. “I don’t think it’s just a crush, Mia.”The admission is as terrifying as it is relieving and it blows away at the nebulous confusion surrounding it while leaving in its path a flurry of wonder and dread and ‘What if's.“Oly it’s okay, breathe you, idiot,” Mia says and she twists around to cup Olivia’s cheeks who bobs her head with a trembling si

More people arrived while she was outside and Olivia quickly scans the place brimming with life and festivity. It’s a little awkward and daunting to be surrounded by so many strangers, even more with her, she is certain, swollen eyes, and Olivia moves closer to Asher to find some comfort and support.Thankfully, as Asher and Olivia make their way through the living room and to the impromptu buffet, no one seems to care about Olivia’s state, the people around them are busy conversing, some even dancing on the makeshift dance floor.A few stop them here and there with a brief greeting or to welcome Olivia to the clan but they eventually reach their destination. “Sorry, they’re a tad too enthusiastic sometimes.”“It’s fine,” Olivia chuckles, feeling more comfortable.“Feel free to tell them to f*ck off if they annoy you, they won’t take it to heart.” Asher grabs a glass for himself and fills it with water. “Here,” he says and hands it to Olivia. “Drink some water before anything else.”“

After his conversation with his brother, Asher roams around the living room and kitchen, speaking with his members, occasionally meeting gaze with Olivia.As time passes by, the night surrounding the house in its darkness, Asher’s tranquility wavers.It’s a simple curiosity at first: a dart of his eyes toward Olivia who’s speaking and laughing with Bruno, Asher is happy to see Olivia hit it off well with everyone.It changes to an annoyance that Asher attempts to discard when he watches how the distance between Olivia and Bruno slowly disappears.Olivia does not seem uncomfortable, thankfully, so Asher turns his back on the pair, assuming that not being plagued by the sight of Bruno’s flirtatious behavior would help alleviate his growing irritation.It does not, Asher bitterly realizes.It somehow makes it worse, actually, when not knowing what Bruno may do has Asher creating the most improbable and demented scenarios in his mind, like for example the one where he imagines Olivia and
Lonely Mafia Shall We Love Chapter 138
Olivia trudges to the group and she tries to get back into the conversation but her mind is preoccupied with Asher’s odd behavior.She glances at the mob boss.Olivia had never really seen Asher in his element, surrounded by the clan he built and created alongside his brother. Olivia has been watching him the whole night, stealing peeps here and there, observing the way Asher commands his underlings, this aura of authority natural yet calm, uncontested yet respectful and kind as Asher would give ‘Thank you’s, reassuring words and approvals to his members for a job well done tonight.So, Olivia quickly noticed the sour turn in Asher’s mood.The boss seems… pissed off, for lack of a better word. Asher’s gaze is darkened with a veil of ire as he surveys the room or peers outside the windows, leaning against the edge of the table.Olivia isn’t the only one to have caught wind of the mob boss’ aggravating temper if the way everyone deftly avoids the table Asher claimed as is any hint, non

A lull floats between Olivia and Asher, one peering at the other while the second stares outside, and Olivia exerts a patience she hasn’t known very often, waiting for Asher to formulate his thoughts.“Ugly emotion,” Asher eventually says as he sits back against the table, facing the room again.Olivia’s lips part to ask what the mob boss exactly means by that, but it suddenly dawns on her. “Oh. You’re jealous,” Olivia uselessly states and it’s received by a side glance. “Of what?”“Who,” Asher replies and Olivia follows her gaze born somewhere in the dining room.“Bruno? You’re jealous of him? Or of me?”“Why the f*ck would I be jealous of you regarding him?” Asher snaps.“So, you’re jealous of him regarding me.”“Well observed, detective,” Asher mouths off with a downturn of his lips.“Hey don’t sass me. Pissed off you is surprisingly bratty,” Olivia frowns. “So, I’m right?” She’s momentarily distracted by the way the muscles of Asher’s jaw shift under the skin as he visibly grits h

Both stare at each other silently. Asher’s words ring in the silent room. His face is filled with uncertainty and hesitation but also assurance. He is willing to do that only if Olivia will accompany him during those nights.Olivia without even hearing his words understands the turmoil in Asher’s heart. “Of course, Asher. we can call, facetime, or text whenever there's one. I’ll always be there with you”“Thank you.” Asher’s face breaks into a smile.The genuine smile makes Olivia’s heart tingle “We'll make a bunch of good memories about storms so that the bad ones are gone.” She says with a smile.Asher looks surprised and delighted with the suggestion “I'd love that.”“Me too.”Olivia looks at Asher and suddenly she remembers something “Also, I'm learning how to bake.”“What? Why?” Asher looks confused and surprised.“I was supposed to give you a gift some time ago but it slipped my mind with all the mess that had been happening. And now I changed the present I want to give you.” Ol

They both go silent after that, looking at each other's faces not knowing what to say."What?” Olivia starts, she was offended by the silence from Asher “Did I say something wrong?" she asks Asher with a smile.Asher’s face lit up and he shook his head "No, not at all."His answer made Olivia satisfied, she nodded her head with a happy smile on her face. "Was there a thunder on your side?""Yeah, something like that." Asher’s face dims remembering the situation he was trying to ignore.Olivia notices and asks with a soft voice "Do you want to talk about it?"Asher looks startled "About what?" he asks with confusion."Why you're scared of storms."Asher peruses his lips and goes silent. His tongue comes out to lick his dry lips. He shifts on his bed curling on to himself "There's nothing much to say.""I'm still listening if you want to share." Olivia doesn’t prob, but still tries to talk to him.Asher is not someone who opens up to someone about his shortcomings. He has been trained t

“I could live in this car.” Olivia sighs into the leather seat.“I don’t think Mini would appreciate that,” Asher says from where he’s bent over, his arms propped on the edge of the rolled-down window.“Good point. She’s tiny but needs a lot of space, a bit like Steve.” Olivia snickers at her own joke, two duffle bags brimming with Asher’s clothes thrown over the seat next to where she’s installed at the back of the car.“I’ll tell him you say that.”“Go ahead, I’ve been meaning to fight him after Airhead.”“Brat.”Olivia peers up at Asher, catching the fond smile on the boss’ lips. “Thank you for the date.”“You’re welcome, and thank you too,” Asher says, his face close to Olivia. “You enjoyed yourself?”“Mhm, the most,” Olivia grins as she fastens her belt when the driver enters the vehicle“Me too,” Asher whispers, and with his index, he brushes a strand of hair away from Olivia’s forehead. “I won’t be able to text you much today, but I’ll do what I can to try.”“It’s fine, don’t w

When Olivia wakes up a few hours later, it’s to an empty bed, Asher’s side on the mattress tidied up, the phone and iPad on the nightstand gone.It doesn’t take long for Olivia to figure out where the mob boss went when, and after relieving herself in the restroom, she climbs down the stairs to make her way to the dining room.Asher is seated at the end of the table installed in the corner of the bay windows and Olivia trudges up to the mob boss.Hands shoved in her pants pockets, Olivia knocks her foot on the leg of the chair Adam is occupying, the one directly on Asher’s left.“Move,” Olivia orders when Adam does not budge.Adam swivels around. “Say that again, GaintDog?”“That’s my seat. Move.”“How about you f*ck off before I shoot you in the knee?” Adam snaps when Olivia kicks the chair again. “It’s no one’s seat, however right now it’s mine because my a*s is on it.”“Adam, come on,” Walter intervenes from where he’s lounged further down the table, Mia by his sides. “They’re in t
