Lonely Mafia Shall We Love Chapter 139
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

Olivia is silent, the minutes elapsing as her slow dance with Asher does and it’s comfortable, even if some of the tension in Asher is still present. But Asher isn’t pushing Olivia away anymore because he understood.“You deserve better than what I can give you.”And Olivia understands now, any sense of confusion eroding inside her. She comprehends where the jealousy comes from now, that it’s elicited by Ash’s self-loathing and everything falls into pieces.“Ash, you deserve me. I deserve you.”“You deserve better than me.”“I don’t but even if I did, then what?” Olivia reclines to glare at Asher. “It’s my choice to make, not yours. And I chose you. It doesn’t matter whether I deserve better or not. It doesn’t matter to me. I just want you, okay?”Asher’s pinched lips furl up and when Olivia tries to catch the boss’ gaze the latter averts his eyes.“Look at me. Ash. Look at me.”Asher’s gaze meets Olivia’s, any sentiment hidden behind a veil of indifference and Olivia can’t have that.

“Can we go sit on the couch?” Olivia asks and leans her head back to peer at Asher. “We’re not even dancing anyway.”“Let’s do that” Asher retracts his arms at the same time Olivia does and grabs both of their glasses with a hand.There’s something about the way Asher takes Olivia’s left wrist in his fingers to lead them to the living room that pleasantly has Olivia let herself be guided, this curious will to comply unraveling in her and she says “Ash?”“Yeah?”“Is there something you want me to do tonight?” Olivia asks as she sits down in the corner of the available couch facing the large TV.“Huh? How so?” Asher wonders and settles next to Olivia.“Just…” Olivia trails back to her and Asher’s earlier conversation tonight. “Just something or several things you want me to do,” Olivia says, hushing her voice to make sure only Asher can hear her as she twists her torso to face him.“Can you…” Asher’s eyes narrow in confusion. “Stay close to me?”“That’s not— Don’t ask.” Olivia sighs.

Asher hums with a kiss on the snake, his and Olivia’s gaze meeting for a second. “Ready?”“Ready.”Olivia braces herself with a hand that she cards through Asher’s strands, pushing the hair back to have a better view of Asher’s face. Pain flares on the side of Olivia’s hip and she hisses, fingers tightening around Asher’s locks. “F*ck.”Olivia had not questioned why she enjoyed the dull throb when Asher bit her on her bed, however, she does now, even more so when she asks Asher to bite a little harder, a little more painful.And it’s different this time, Olivia realizes. Where Asher only bit her thigh before, here there is a faint suction as the teeth bore deeper into the flesh and she hadn’t noticed earlier the way Asher’s tongue is pressed against her skin, or how Asher’s breath tickles Olivia.It’s over too quickly as Asher lets go, Olivia’s hand slackening its hold on the boss’ hair. Asher’s tongue darts out to lick at his lips as he watches the blooming bruises and Olivia peers d
Lonely Mafia Shall We Love Chapter 143
After asserting Asher’s consent, Olivia breathes out a ‘Thank you’ that she never finishes to say because she relents into her want and her teeth gnaw on the dip of Asher’s neck, Olivia strangely enjoying the feeling of nibbling on the skin.Olivia emits a low hum when Asher’s hand trails along her spine to halt at the nape, the hold secure and comforting as Olivia opens her mouth a little more to properly bite onto the flesh. She releases her grip a moment to admire her work and notices then the trace of spit glistening on Asher’s skin.Olivia fruitlessly tries to dry the wet spot with a flick of her tongue and Asher’s fingers tighten on her nape before they crawl upward to rake their nails on Olivia’s scalp. Asher does not seem to mind so Olivia does it again, her tongue and its piercing licking a brief stripe on the joint of Asher’s throat and shoulder where she bit a mark.“Taste good,” Olivia says, which is borderline psychotic considering the fact that she just complimented a m

“How is that any of our fault?” Olivia frowns.“Because he was terrified after realizing he flirted with Ash’s girl,” Steve deadpans, elbows propped on the arms of the armchair Bruno was previously seated on.“He was being friendly,” Olivia stresses.“He was definitely flirting with you,” Asher and Steve both say simultaneously, the former leaning forward to rest his glass on the table and serve himself some water.“I— Well, it’s not like I’m interested.”“And it’s not like he’ll ask you again now that he knows,” Steve says and stretches his legs, his hand folding over his belly.“Knows what?” Olivia asks.Steve quirks a brow. “That you’re Ash’s girl?”“She’s not my girl.”Asher’s denial is received with an affronted scoff on Olivia’s part. “Now that’s plain insulting and hypocritical after the jealous temper tantrum you pulled on me,” Olivia says, unfazed by the glare Asher pins her with.“What temper tantrum?” Steve wonders.“You didn’t notice his bitter brooding episode earlier ton

“Are you asking me?” Asher wonders with a squeeze on Olivia’s thigh.“Yeah, I am,” Olivia clarifies and she doesn’t have to wait for long for the boss’ response.“Honest or selfless reply?”“Honest.”Asher’s hand skids higher on Olivia’s thigh and two of his fingers dig into a bite, massaging at the sensitive skin. “It depends on what kind of outing it is.”“What kind of outing is it?” Olivia asks Mark who lost some of his composure in favor of a worried bewilderment.“Huh, I mean, a date?” Mark tentatively says.“A friendly one or something more?” Olivia asks.Mark peers at Asher before settling on Olivia. “Something more?”Olivia meets Asher’s eyes. “What do you think?”Asher’s response is immediate and concise, leaving no room for argument. “No.”The rush of satisfaction that unfurls within Olivia’s chest is untamed, coiling around the beast that lounges in the endless touches Asher and Olivia award each other with; in the way the mob boss’ refusal is adamant, its lack of shyness o

Less than ten minutes elapsed yet it felt like an eternity away from Olivia, and Asher cannot really fathom when and how he has grown so attached to the hybrid that barged into his life and stayed in the most unexpected ways.When he pushes open the door to his bedroom, he’s welcomed by Olivia’s bright and loud laughter that chimes through his ears, Asher’s happiness blossoming at the sound of Olivia’s unrestrained one.Asher closes the door behind him and he silently approaches Olivia after leaving his keys on his desk, noticing only then the reason for Olivia’s hilarity. “In my defense, Paul bought this to tease me.”Olivia startles with a curse and pivots to face Asher, wielding a vivid pink Hello Kitty onesie in her hands, the sleeves white while the collar is adorned with a hood of the cat’s face. “You have got to stop creeping up on me like that.”“That’s boring,” Asher replies. He scrutinizes the heaps of clothes that Olivia piled up on the island in the middle of the walk-in d

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
