Promised to a Ruthless Mafia Chapter 24
Atasha's POVConrad looked at me intently trying to process my words and after a few seconds he shook his head telling me that he disagrees with my idea."You won't do that Atasha. You don't know how dangerous they can be," he uttered acting all protective."I'll be careful," I responded then held his hand and smiled at him."I promise," I added while looking directly into his eyes.Conrad let out a deep breath."Tell me all your moves then and don't you dare do a dangerous stunt," he uttered which made me smile. I nod my head and then smiled at him once again."I won't I promise," I responded. Conrad stared at my face and after that, he stood up and then planted a soft kiss on my forehead."I'll be going call me if something happens," he reminds me before stepping out of my office.When I am all alone I stared at our wedding ring and it felt like hope surged in my system.I never thought we would come to this point. I thought throughout this marriage we will be nothing but two people

Atasha's POV"I became Rafael Hudson's personal doctor," that's the first thing I said when I saw Conrad.His forehead creased while looking at me."Which means?" he asked."Which means..." I walked towards the living room and sat on the couch then looked at Conrad directly."I will be with him all the time," I responded then smiled at him."Do you have to do this?" he asked. I stand up then encircled my arms around his nape and looked directly into his eyes. I smiled at him and then nod my head."I'll be fine," I assured but hesitation is still written on his face.Conrad let out a deep breath and then held the side of my waist."I guess you should start taking your training seriously if you are eager to pursue your plan," he uttered then lifted me from the floor.I automatically encircled my legs around his waist."Should we start now?" I asked with a giggle."Let's do warm-up first," he uttered then threw me on the couch. Conrad placed himself on top of me and I already knew he hav

Conrad's POVIt's already past midnight but she isn't home yet. I drive back to the club where I left her but she is already gone.I let out a deep breath and then dialled her number but she isn't picking up.I messed my hair out of frustration and get back to my car.When I am inside my car I called her number again but just like earlier, she refused to answer.I don't have her friend's number but I remembered that I once asked for Grace's address.I was about to leave when a familiar woman blocked my way.I decided to step out and when she saw me a wide smile appeared on her face."Hi, I'm Ruby Taylor, Atasha's friend. I don't know if you remember me but it's nice to see you again," she uttered with a smile."Are you looking for Atasha?" she asked."Yes, where is she?" I asked."She went home with Grace. I think she will spend a night at Grace's unit, she didn't tell you?" she asked and I can see the curiosity on her face."No," I simply responded."Atasha is a rebel sometimes. Did

Atasha's POVI headed back to my room with a heart filled with pain and anger not for him but for myself.It took me a lot of courage to say those words but it took him seconds to break me apart.I thought we had a chance but I was wrong. I just assumed things to the point that I forgot that Conrad is a cold and ruthless Mafia who isn't capable of loving someone or maybe he is, the only problem is that I am the person who will make him realize what love is.While I am in the middle of self-pity I heard my phone ring so I answered the call and the moment I did I heard Grace's voice filled with excitement."What happened?" she asked excitedly and I have no idea how I should respond."Atasha?" she called my name when I didn't answer."Atasha are you okay?" she asked and those words triggered the tears that I had been suppressing."He rejected me," I confessed in between my sobs."Who?" she asked with her voice filled with confusion."Conrad," I responded and after that, the other line fe

Conrad's POVMorning came. I saw Atasha coming out of her room pulling her luggage. I immediately stood up when I saw her. I offered to help her carry her things but she refused."I'm fine," she said and completely ignore me.I let out a deep breath and followed her outside. "We can use one car that's more convenient," I said but she ignored me again and stepped inside her car.I let out a deep breath as I watched her drive away. I headed towards my car as well and took the same path she take.After half an hour of driving we arrived at the airport.Atasha headed to the lounge so I followed her. I occupied the seat in front of her so she rolled her eyes and put on her earphones."Do you want to have breakfast first?" I asked but she didn't respond.I let out a deep breath and decided to stand up. She lifts her head looking at me, confused."Where are you going?" she asked with her eyebrows slightly furrowed."I will get us something to eat," I responded."I'm full," she simply respo

Atasha's POVI kept on walking until my feet got tired. I stopped at an unfamiliar park. I don't know how far it is to Peninsula Hotel all I know is that I am lost and I have no idea how to come back.I sat on the wooden bench to rest. I wiped the tears that fell from my eyes again. I looked at my phone to look for someone that could help me but I was left with two options, it's either I swallow my pride and call Conrad or forget my revenge for a while and ask for Sebastian's help.After a few minutes of thinking I chose the latter. It is much more tolerable to face Sebastian rather than face Conrad looking like a mess.I gather all my courage to dial Sebastian's number and after a few rings, he answered."Are you okay?" he asked because this is the first time that I called his number.Tears fell from my eyes upon hearing that question and after a while, a sob escaped from my mouth."Help me please," I begged in between my sobs."What happened?" Sebastian asked and I can hear the pani

I asked teasing her."You won't?" she asked with her eyes widened which made me smile."I won't," I firmly responded then walked towards the car and occupied the driver seat. Veronica on the other hand occupied the shotgun seat and then faced me."How's Rome?" she asked looking at me intently."Same as before," I responded then put on my seat belt and started the engine."Did

I decided to come since Rafael needs proper monitoring but I promise to give them space once we arrived.Sebastian drives the car while Rafael is sitting in the backseat and I am in the passenger seat.I contented myself by looking at the view outside."It's been a decade since I last visited her grave," Rafael said."I'm sure Aunt Selene missed you Dad," Sebastian responded.

Atasha's POVAfter sending the kids to school, Conrad drove me to the hospital and before I stepped out of his car I stared at his face with a smile plastered on my lips."Good luck with your presentation Love," He smiled at me and reached for my hand. He planted a soft kiss on it and stared at my eyes intently."Thank you Love. I'll do good, I'll make you and the twins proud,"I squeezed his hand and shook my head. "You already made us proud, you don't have to prove yourself to us just do your best,"I saw how his lips stretched for a wide smile and it warms my heart to see worry slowly leaving his face. "I don't know what I would do without you Atasha," he whispered as he pulled me into a tight hug.We were having an intimate moment when a knock on the car window interrupted us.Upon turning my head I saw Grace's face on the window, trying to see what was inside."Your friend is so nosy," Conrad jokingly commented which made me smile."She is," I replied agreeing to what he said.I

Atasha's POVWe spent a few hours at the water, and when the sun became scorching hot, we decided to head back to our cottage and take a rest.Conrad and I prepared our lunch together.We opted to grill some meat for our meal, and once we were done, we settled around a small table, enjoying the breathtaking view."I wish we could have stayed here forever," Alison commented, which brought laughter from all of us."Can we build a small house here, Mom?" Asher asked, his unspoken desire evident. I knew he loved it here as well."Your Dad and I will discuss it," I replied, glancing at Conrad. As our eyes met, he smiled warmly at me."I'll start saving money for your dream beach house," he proclaimed, eliciting smiles from the kids."I want my room to be all pink, Dad. I'll make curtains out of shells. It'll be so cute," Alison chimed in, her excitement evident as she talk about her dream room.Conrad smiled at Alison and nodded."We'll make that happen," he assured her.After our satisfyi

Conrad's POVI woke up at four in the morning and quickly took a shower. When I stepped out of the bathroom, Atasha was already awake, rubbing her eyes as if she had just woken up."Good morning," I greeted her.Atasha's gaze wasn't fixed on my face but on my body. A smirk spread across my lips as I walked towards her. She seemed frozen in place.I stopped in front of her and held her chin, making our eyes meet."Eyes up here, love," I said, noticing the embarrassment on her face. She slapped my hand away and pushed me aside before getting up.She was about to walk towards the bathroom, probably to escape from me, but I held her hand to stop her and hugged her from behind.Atasha stayed still as I hugged her tightly."Conrad, I can feel something," she said, making me laugh.Atasha turned around and looked directly into my eyes."Sorry, it's morning," I apologized.Atasha looked at me intently, then lowered her gaze, and I felt a bit embarrassed when I saw her eyes fixed on my member.

Atasha's POVWhen the kids disappeared from our sight, Conrad let out a deep sigh, and I gently caressed his shoulder to ease the heaviness he felt inside.Conrad looked at me, and I smiled back at him."I'll sleep here," he said."Okay," I replied, as he always sleeps here anyway."I'll just get a few things from my unit," he added, and I nodded, walking him out of the house.I watched him step inside his car. Before driving away, he rolled down his window and looked at me."I'll be back, love. I love you," he said, and I couldn't help but smile upon hearing those words."Drive safely. I love you," I reminded him, and his smile grew wider as he nodded at me before driving away.A huge smile remained on my lips as I watched Conrad's car slowly disappear from my view.I was so focused on his car that I didn't notice Grace standing by my side.She elbowed me, causing me to flinch."Shit, you scared me!" I blurted out, holding my chest in shock at her sudden appearance."What's with the

Conrad's POVWe settled around the table, trying to create a sense of togetherness. However, my attempts to catch the kids' attention were in vain—they kept avoiding me, refusing to even make eye contact. "Your pasta tastes good, Conrad," Dad commented, bringing a smile to my face."Thank you, Dad," I replied, then turned my gaze towards the twins."After we finish eating, would you like to watch a movie?" I asked, patiently awaiting their response."We already watched a movie with Grandpa, right Asher?" Alison chimed in, looking towards her twin.Asher nodded his head in confirmation."We also have to take a nap," he added."How about we go to the park after your nap?" I suggested, but they both shook their heads simultaneously."It's drizzling," Alison explained, returning to her pasta.I let out a deep breath, feeling defeated as I couldn't come up with another idea to make it up to them.I felt Atasha's hand holding mine, so I looked at her and she smiled, causing me to smile bac

Atasha's POVI watched as Conrad knelt in front of Alison, filled with guilt evident in his tone."I'm sorry," he uttered, his voice laced with remorse.Alison continued to cry, so Asher pulled her into a tight hug and glanced at his father."You always let us down, Dad. Uncle Sebastian is a better father than you. He made time for Alison's recital, even though he was busy treating sick people. I wish he were our Dad, not you," Asher said, his gaze fixed on Conrad."Asher, don't speak to your father like that," I firmly interjected.Asher fell silent, taking deep breaths to calm himself."It's fine, Atasha," Conrad assured me, forcing a smile on his lips.Conrad attempted to hold Alison and Asher's hands, but they kept removing his grasp, distancing themselves from him.Conrad let out a deep breath, tears glistening in his eyes.He swallowed hard and forced another smile."Daddy will make it up to both of you, I promise. Do you want ice cream? Shall we go to the mall? Would you like n

Conrad's POVI drove towards my office after dropping Atasha off at the hospital.The moment I stepped inside my office, I immediately went to my secretary to check my schedule. I had a dinner meeting later, so I informed Atasha that I wouldn't be home early.Coming home late seemed to be my routine for this month and possibly the following month. I had to work extra hard to regain everything that the company had lost.I started signing the documents and lost track of time. My secretary brought me lunch, so I took a quick break and called Atasha while I ate.After a few rings, she answered the call."Have you had your lunch?" I asked, hearing the twins in the background."Yeah, we're at a restaurant right now having our lunch. I'm with the twins. Do you want to talk to them?" she asked."Yes, please," I said, and after a few seconds, I heard Alison's voice fill my ears. "Hi Daddy," she greeted happily."Hi, baby. Are you eating right now?" I asked."Yes, Dad. I ordered pasta, and I w

Atasha's POVConrad embraced me tightly. I could sense that something was troubling him, but I didn't want to pressure him into opening up to me. Perhaps he needed time to figure things out on his own, so I would give him that time and patiently wait for him to share his burdens with me.I rested my head on his chest and let myself drift off to sleep.The next morning, I woke up to the sound of the twins knocking on our door. When I looked beside me, Conrad had just woken up as well. He rubbed his eyes and walked towards the door. As he opened it, the twins came running towards the bed."Good morning, Mommy," they greeted, showering me with kisses."What about Daddy?" Conrad asked, his jealousy evident in how the children greeted me.I laughed when I saw him pouting his lips while looking at the twins.The twins laughed at his expression and then stood up to give their father a tight hug."Good morning, Daddy," they greeted in unison, kissing their father on the cheeks.Conrad smiled
