Yanna
Enzo and I discussed about our marriage earlier in the morning. It was going to be held in two weeks time in a cathedral church, the mafia’s lawyer would arrive at the end of the week to register our marriage.
Apparently, this is my father’s house more like mansion so after the wedding, I would move into his own house to live together. I am expected to birth an heir for the mafia and basically be a trophy wife.
He doesn’t expect me to be involved with matters concerning the mafia except i willingly involve myself. I asked him if I could invite Hailey and Maya for my wedding which he agreed on.
I’m currently sitting at the dining with my ‘father’ eating lunch because It took a while for me to shower and get ready. The sounds of clanking cutleries filled the room as we both ate in silence.
Deciding to break this awkward silence, I spoke. “What would you prefer me to address you as?”
He froze mid-chewing and focused his attention on me. “Whatever you would prefer, I don’t expect to be called papa, I would have to earn it.”
I nodded slowly. “Mr. Bernadi then…”
He winced a little. “Alonzo, would be fine.”
I snicker and rolled my eyes. what happened to ‘whatever I prefer’?
“When did you find out about me…” I whisper as I played with my food. My appetite had suddenly vanished.
Alonzo cleared his throat. “You were about 11 years old when I found out.” His eyes scanning my reaction.
I gritted my teeth in anger. “So you’ve known about me for 13 years.” Annoyance was clear in my face.
He just stared at me blankly but nodded then went on to continue eating, dismissing the conversation.
I let out a sigh. “Tell me about Enzo.”
He glanced at me briefly. “He is your fiancé and the don of the Italian mafia.” He went on with his lunch.
“I deserve to know more than just that.” I replied sternly.
He sighed and finally dropped his cutlery to look up at me. “I have known him for twenty years now, I picked him up from the wrong crowd back in Italy when he was only ten years old.”
I leaned in closer, laser focused at his story. I need to know what I’m getting into with this marriage.
“Matteo, my son and Enzo grew close from a very young age that is why I took him under my wing to keep him company.” His eyes softened as he spoke about his son.
My heart softened a little from that. I nodded slowly, soaking in all the information I could get on Enzo.
A man walked in with Enzo following silently behind him. “Buon pomeriggio!” (good afternoon!) he greeted as he strolled in casually.
Alonzo smiled and reciprocated the hug he received while I glanced at Enzo who stood behind the strange man. His dark eyes met mine, caging me in his icy stare.
“Ah…this must be your daughter, miss?” the strange man brought my attention to him.
“Just Yanna.” I smiled politely as I shook his hand.
He nodded with a smile. “I am Roberto, a distant cousin of your father.” His Italian accent was thick.
I smiled awkwardly not knowing what to say.
“Yanna.” Enzo’s deep voice called my attention.
“Get dressed, we need to get things done for the wedding.” He spoke.
I glanced down at my oversized t-shirt and sweatpants. “I have nothing to change into.”
He scanned my outfit and nodded. “We would go get your stuffs then.”
I nodded.
Enzo drove back to my apartment and I was able to pack my important stuffs like few clothes, a photo album for I and my mum, my phone and my skincare products.
We rode in silence as we were heading to a new destination. I couldn’t help but admire this stoic man that drove beside me. His neatly trimmed stubble, his full lips, dark grey eyes, jawline that looked so sharp, his slightly crocked nose.
I squeezed my thighs together as I noticed his tattooed veiny arms, the way his muscles tensed as he handled the wheels. I glanced down at his strong thighs, his-
“Are you done eye fucking me?” his deep voice cut through my thoughts.
I scoffed feeling my face get hot from embarrassment. “Your ego must be huge to think that I was doing that.”
He glanced down at me briefly with a knowing smirk before his eyes snapped back to the road again. My eyes widened at how hot that was.
I cleared my throat. “Where are we even headed?”
“Firstly, engagement ring shopping, then wedding dress shopping then a few more wedding stuffs…” his irritation didn’t go unnoticed.
I hummed “When we get married, are we going to be staying in the same room?” I asked curiously.
He answered blankly. “Yes.”
Our ride continued on like that till we arrived at the ring shop that I would never even think of stepping into in my entire life. It screamed luxury as we walked in and everywhere was empty except for the sales person.
“Good morning Mr. Bernadi, how can I help you?” the salesperson greeted with a large smile.
“I would like to see your most expensive engagement and wedding rings.” His presence commanded the room as he spoke.
The salesperson glanced at me in surprise but nodded still. She brought out a couple of beautiful diamond rings, I was in awe.
“Choose whichever you would like for me too.” Enzo whispered into my ear.
I gulped, thankful of my melanated skin, with the amount of times that this man made flustered like a crazy teenager around him.
The day went on with me getting my engagement and wedding ring, my wedding gown and a few other things I know of.
Enzo had dropped me home that day and I had never seen him since then. I had called my manager to quit stripping and also spoke to Hailey about my wedding.
It pained me that I had to lie to her about my situation but it was for the best. I had told her that Enzo and I met a year ago but didn’t further our relationship because we weren’t ready but we met about a month ago and had kept in contact till he suddenly proposed and now I’m getting married.
She was shocked with the unexpected news but was also happy for me. I had asked her to be my bridesmaid and she was so excited, we cried a little that day.
I smiled as I remembered that call, I stared at the engagement ring on my finger and frowned.
Am I really going to go through with this?
I closed my eyes and hoped that everything would go well.
Yanna Two weeks had passed by quickly. My nerves where all over the place as I busied myself playing with the engagement ring on my finger.I stared at the woman staring back at me in the mirror, my hair was in a slick low bun with diamond ornaments in my hair. My edges framed my face, adding more focus to the light makeup on my face.My wedding dress was beautiful with the diamonds twinkling as it hit the lights. Intricate lace was used for the long sleeves of the dress, the low cut sweetheart neckline brought attention to my exposed cleavage but not revealing too much. The dress hugged my figure tightly then flared out perfectly in a long train.A gasp cut me from my thoughts causing me to turn around.“Oh my God, Yanna…” Hailey held her chest as she got teary eyed.I giggled softly trying to hold back my tears. “Stop, you’re going to make me cry.”She walked over to me, engulfing me in a tight hug. “You look so beautiful.”I nodded. “Thank you.” I whisperShe glanced at my face bu
Yanna The drive back to Enzo’s place, was short as the driver sped back home. His home was a mansion much bigger than Alonzo’s, his men were armed and stationed at every corner of the house.We were guided quickly into the house, I was in so much shock as everything moved in a blur as Enzo fired orders to his men, while a doctor came in to take a look at his gunshot wound on his arm.My hands felt cold from the sudden shock I was feeling, a woman came to hold me and guided me up the stairs into a room which I could tell was Enzo’s from the scent of it.“Breathe…” The elderly woman said as she rubbed my hands.It calmed me down a little but I was still shaken at how drastic my life could switch from a somewhat joyful wedding, to a battle of gunfires.“You’re fine.” The woman said as her warm brown eyes locked to mine.“What happened?...” I sniffled softly.“Mr Bernadi would fill you on everything you need to know, but for now lets get you out of this dress.” She smiled warmly at me.I
Enzo I glanced at my watch for the third time in the past minute. What the hell is taking her so long to get ready?“Don, we found this at the reception.” Antonio whispered in my ear.I glanced down to his hand and it was a bullet engraved with my name on it, a threat. I clenched my jaw in anger, that Rossi bastard.“Find out what type of gun it belongs to and narrow it down to its shipments in the country.” Antonio nodded and walked away.On cue, Yanna finally came down the stairs. My mouth went dry, for some reason I couldn’t behave when I’m around her. She is a beautiful woman, I’ll give her that.Her coily hair was tied up, she was curvy and plump with wide hips and an evident weight on her chest. Her brown thighs were exposed from the shorts she wore. I exhaled trying to calm myself from the various thoughts I had with those thick thighs of hers.“I’m so sorry, I know I said I’ll be done in half an hour.” She states sheepishly.I shook my head. “You came down in time.” I guided h
Yanna Few days had gone by with me spending all my time at the beach or reading a book, back at the suite. To sum it all, it’s been boring the past few days.Enzo has been busy with work in Croatia, and we haven’t spoken about our incident at the bar which I’m thankful for.I released a sigh at the soothing sounds of the waves. Antonio, one of Enzo’s men had been assigned as my personal security whenever Enzo went out for work. He never says a word, just follows me wherever I go.“I’m boreddd…” I whine as I lay on the tanning bed at the beach, I was in a pink bikini set that perfectly accentuated my curves.Antonio didn’t pay mind to what I said, instead he faced the beach with a stoic expression, his ponytail swaying in the wind.Frustrated, I got up abruptly storming towards our suite. I need to leave this resort and explore unless I’ll run mad!.Antonio was hot on my heel but I didn’t pay mind to him. I speedily walked into the suite, Enzo was around but in a meeting at the office.
Yanna It felt like time stopped as we both stared at each other. The loud gunshot shocked me, realization hit me as I felt my grip on the trigger.My eyes widened as the man’s face twisted to that of pain as he groaned and rolled off me. My body was trembling from the aftereffects of the gunshot, I turned my head glancing at the man on the floor.His haunting grey eyes were wide open and dilated, color seemed to have left his face and there was no sign of him breathing.He’s dead.Panicked, I quickly scrambled to my feet making a run for it. My heart was racing as I ran in a blur, the docks suddenly came to view and I noticed Enzo searching through the crowd hastily.“Enzo!” I called out from afar, gaining his attention as we locked eyes.My eyes quickly scanned his form, his hair was in a mess, he was clutching his recently injured arm and not to mention, his plain white shirt now had splatters of blood on it.A choked sob escaped from my lips as my legs moved before I could process
Yanna My sobbing echoed through the walls of the bathroom I was currently showering in. I had thought that I could handle what happened during my attack yesterday but I just couldn’t hold it in anymore.The wave of emotions crashed on me as soon as I stepped into the bathroom. How can a simple life of a stripper suddenly turn out like this, in this situation?I’m not prepared for this life and I don’t think I ever will. Fear crept up as I thought about Hailey and her cute little Maya, I didn’t want them to get harmed just by having a relationship with me.I sniffled softly as I turned off the shower, wrapping myself in a robe to step out of the bathroom. On cue, Enzo walked in, unbuttoning his shirt but stopped in his tracks as he noticed my obvious red eyes from crying.“I didn’t want this life.” I glare at him.He tilted his head to the side, squinting his eyes. “Did you think the mafia was a joke?” he asked mockingly.I scoff as anger flared in my chest. “Don’t you dare speak to me
Enzo Fuck…..I wanted more, no I need to taste more of her sweet lips. I held back a longing groan as I felt my stiffness. Getting turned on by just kissing…. Fuck I’m screwed.She was so oblivious to the effect she has on me. The memory of her scurrying away after our kiss flashed in my head causing me to snicker.I glanced at the rear view mirror but immediately locked eyes with Antonio’s who avoided my eyes as fast as possible causing my smirk to drop quickly.Antonio cleared his throat. “Umm…Don, I want to apologize again for-”I released a sigh. “Just keep driving.”“Yes Don.”Yanna had given up on following me out after she scurried off. I was currently on my way to a meeting with the Russian mafia, I needed to buy shipments in order to win this war that has just started with that Rossi bastard.The car came to a halt, I was guided by a Russian to our meeting place. My men had already swept through the building for any suspicious play. No weapons are allowed for this meeting, w
YannaThe familiar musky air of the club filled my nostrils as I walked through the back rooms where all the other girls changed to ready for their performance.I felt nervous coming back after taking a few months from taking a break. It felt like I was the new girl all over again, my palms felt clammy and I couldn’t get my heart to stop racing.“Yanna!” Hailey called out as she rushed over to me, engulfing me in a tight hug.“I’m so glad your back, this place hasn’t been the same without you.” she was in her pink cowgirl outfit ready for her performance.I giggled softly “It’s good to be back.”Hailey smiled and nodded. “I have to go right now but we’re definitely hanging out later.” She rushed out as our manager called out for her.I quickly nodded with a smile as I watched her rush over to her waiting room.Hailey was the first person to speak to me when I began stripping last year. She had only been in the business for a year but she helped me to know the ropes around stripping an
