The Mafia's Charming Mate 40. DANGER
My right hand flew to the back in an attempt to attack whoever dragged me that way all of a sudden. The person was also skilled in martial arts because they kept blocking all my attacks. I used all the skills Martins taught me but they were a bit faster than me. That got me mad and persistent, I wanted to see their face so badly. “Who are you?” I hissed, twisting myself to face him and he resisted for a split second before leaving my shoulders and I got to turn and see Rocco standing behind me. I suspected that he was the one but since I wasn’t sure, I needed to be careful and fight back. I didn’t want to die in the hands of a stranger. “Why are you here?” my chest heaving as I tried to control my breath "Ssshhh,” his hand rose to his lips and several bullets rained at the other side of the room, in the hallway We both lied down with immediate effect, my chest thumping against the floor as I tried to figure out what was happening. He crawled to my side and fished out his gun by t
The Mafia's Charming Mate 41. MELTING
|Rocco|I knew the annual mafia meeting would be a bloody one no matter the preparation, it had always been like that. I had so many meetings with the other families before the general meeting so we could settle disputes, underlying grudges, and also discuss other needed things for a smooth meeting.I was so uncomfortable with the fact that Irena would be going with me but I needed her by my side. Bojana had something urgent to fix, our goods arrived and some defects were detected so she had to sort them out.I also fired my lawyer because I found out some shady dealings he was carrying out underground. Hiring a lawyer out of the blues when the meeting is just the next day would be over dangerous and since she was an aspiring law student, I decided to borrow her for the moment.“Are you sure she can handle this? I can find a way to postpone the goods sorting,” the concern was obvious in Bojana’s voiceIt wasn’t even laced with jealousy this time, she was genuinely concerned about her
The Mafia's Charming Mate 42. DEEPER
Our unplanned romance was short-lived. A glance at the chandelier gave out one of the bastards who was trying to shoot into the room. Quickly, my hand shifted her to the other side, against the wall. Her face was flushed with disappointment but I didn’t have any time to explain before the window came crashing down. A loud yelp escaped her throat as her hands threw themselves over her head. She crouched down immediately, using the bed as a cover because the bullet rain wouldn’t stop.A soft “that was close” played on my dry lips as I crawled to her side to check if she was okay. Although she nodded her head, it was obvious that she wasn’t. Her eyes were wide opened in shock and she rarely blinked. She must have gone into a shock beyond her control because it didn’t seem like she could hear anything or open her mouth where she sat down, trembling.Martins came to the rescue at that moment to inform us that he had cleared a path for us to leave. We couldn’t bear staying in the hotel any
The Mafia's Charming Mate 43. UPDATE
|Irena| Everything about us changed that night. He became gentlier and more loving. I never knew someone as rough, cold, and fierce as him could have such a tender and sweet side. He was always considerate about my own feelings and firm about his. “I know I want you. I want you to be mine. I am not a complete or perfect man so I cannot guarantee you a hundred percent happiness, but I will do my best to make your smile stay forever,” he had promised that evening. I kept blushing in his hold. His huge palms rested on my waist, slightly touching my ass as he pulled me closer to him. Never for once did he break the stare; it felt like I had enchanted him with my eyes. “If you say this, how am I supposed to turn you down?” a small giggle danced in my throat He wouldn't have that. Immediately he countered my statement. “You can't even turn me down because I will stick to you like gum does to the sole of a shoe. You already gave me permission to own you and I will never let you retrac
The Mafia's Charming Mate 44. PACK YOUR BAG
Martins was silent throughout the ride and I was so grateful for that. His face wore a worrisome expression but he restrained himself from asking anything. He must have wanted to ask a lot of questions because of the panic mode I was but he held himself back in respect.“The park beside the police station right?” he asked, snapping me out of my thoughtsI couldn’t pinpoint what exactly the update could be because I had looked for several information and hints all my life, throughout the five years of the case. Nothing seemed to be out of the blues no matter how I searched. Everything was perfect. It got to a point where I started to doubt if my mom was indeed innocent like I thought. All evidence were pointing to her. Nothing seemed to be helping in clearing her name and that dead ends have been the main cause of the problem I was facing. The case was not moving forward and it felt like my mother would die behind bars.“Yes please, the smart park, right behind the huge building aroun
The Mafia's Charming Mate 45. I'M SORRY
|Rocco|The Mafia’s association have been much tensed for the past few days because of the incident. Everyone kept their cool and laid low. No one wanted to be a waste to the bloodthirsty revenge that the deceased’s families would put up.All businesses were put on hold and every activities and meetings were suspended for the time being. I didn’t even go to work because I had to put so many things in place.“I just got an update from the other side. There are some people lurking around Palermo to see if they will catch a glimpse of you,” Martins notified me I couldn’t stay sane without burying my head in books and I didn’t just want to pass time with Irena because she had been working on how to help me as a true consigliere when I resume work. “That’s not strange. Just try to find out their identity and the group they belong to. If they are a threat, we will know what to do with them but if they are just here for other businesses, leave them alone. You still have to keep them under
The Mafia's Charming Mate 46. POWERFUL MAN
Irena finally rounded up her courses and reading about all she wanted to learn and had time to sleep in for a very long time in ages. The bags under her eyes were so heavy that she could barely see properly on the day she was done.Rocco once told her to take it easy and learn it bits by bits since he was still at home and wouldn’t resume any meeting with the mafia family or business for the time being but she ignored and insisted on taking it till the end.“She’s so persistent. I really do not understand her,” he had sighed after talking to her but no availSliding into her bed that morning, she slept off after turning off her phone. For more than eight hours, she comfortably slept her stress off before waking up refreshed. As soon as she was done with food, she turned her phone on to get some things done and Paul’s message came in.“The result of the footprint is out and the only thing they could get was the shoe sole’s design. This means I have to narrow down the designs to brands
The Mafia's Charming Mate 47. CRAMPED
|Rocco| I was uncomfortable with the fact that Paul was doing his best to help her and her mother out, but I didn’t do anything concerning the case. I wouldn’t have bothered if it were to be the past but now that she was my girl, I had to step in. I put a call through to Martins and told him to look for everything he could lay his hands on concerning the case. He investigated the murder scene and the surroundings, the people that were around that time and place, and everything he could look into, but he didn’t find anything out of the ordinary. She had gone out to meet her Auntie that very day, and I was patiently waiting for her to come back because of the flight, but I didn’t see her by evening. Immediately, I put a call through to her, and she confirmed that she was still with her at the restaurant. “As long as she’s not with him,” my mind calmed a bit and I got dressed. “Tell some of the men that they will be rendering some service at a diner this night. You should give t
