Lonely Mafia Shall We Love Chapter 41
Olivia could fall asleep this way, she belatedly realizes. Cuddled up in her bed in the dark, however, not alone for once, Asher's voice being a presence that nudges away the loneliness."Can I push a little?" Asher asks."You can," Olivia says, and she blinks to chase away the drowsiness when her lids turn heavier."What is it that you like?" Asher asks softly.It takes a few seconds for Olivia to recall, but when she does, she curls her arms below her head, one underneath the pillow and the other atop the cushion, tucking the bottom of her face in her elbow. "Just us.""Is that so?" The way Asher speaks is so gentle and careful Olivia can only emit a small 'Mhm' in response, fearing that anything aloud may break their frail haven. "Can you say it full for me?"Not a sliver of reluctance exists in Olivia when she speaks, even less at the last part of Asher's request that probes at this want Olivia wants to have fulfilled. "I like just us."Asher hums, teasing, but before Olivia can f

Olivia: What Olivia: Why not? Ash: Because Ash: I'm gonna go shower Olivia: Okay Olivia: Did I upset you? Ash: No, you didn't Olivia: You are not lying, right? Ash: I'm not Olivia Olivia: Okay, see you later then Ash: You will Asher closes his phone and sighs. "There is a world apart between want and deserve, Olivia," He mumbles and dops the phone on his bed before going for the bath. On the other end, Olivia shakes her head and gets up from the couch, and moves to the other room where Mia is staying for the night. "Mia," she calls softly. "Yes," Mia stirs and looks up at Olivia standing at the door. When Olivia doesn't say anything, she opens her hand, and Olivia goes and falls in her embrace. "What happened?" Mia asks, pulling the girl into a hug. "I think Asher lied to me. Again," Olivia mumbles. "Are you sure, or are you assuming?" Mia asks sleepily. "A lot, actually." * * * * * * * * * * * "Is everyone okay with this?" Asher asks everyone around him. "Yes, bo

"Mia, I'm so happy," Olivia says, keeping her phone down, and smiles at Mia, who is sitting across her."What's going on?" Mia asks, looking at Olivia with confusion."You know I have never talked to so many people at once. They all seem nice. You know, even Airheaded guy, he is funny to rile up," Olivia laughs, remembering her conversation in the chat.Mia hums in agreement. "It is fun. Even I never talked to that many people at once.""You know, the more I think about it, and the more I think I'll accept it," Olivia admits."Accept what?""The adoption. I won't say anything yet because I need more time, but yeah," Olivia plays with her dress with her eyes on her hand, "I have a clear idea of all it'd entail entering this kind of world, and it's not frightening me the way it should" She finally looks up to meet Mia's gaze.Mia looks at her with pride. "Maybe because your own world is similar to theirs in some ways."Olivia nods. "That's what I said to Asher. I'm a bit scared about it

The Mob boss sits casually on the chair, a dominant air around him making others hard to take a breath. He twirls the phone in his hand, deep in thought that nobody dares to break.Henry takes a deep breath and calls softly, "Boss?"An audible hum can be heard from the mob boss, indicating he is listening, so henry continues with a soft trembling voice, "What should we do now?"Nicolas raises an eyebrow with an amused smile on his face, and a slow, predatory smile forms on his face.

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
