MAX POV

I couldn’t even understand why this all had happened, but as far as I knew, I wasn’t alright with it at all.

At this point, the only fleeting thought that provided me discomfort was the fact that Rose couldn’t even specify when she told me that the candlelight ceremony was stipulated for this night.

I noticed the awkward silence that filled the room as it was simultaneously accompanied by the glares that Rose shot at me.

“You won’t say anything?” She said.

Her tone alone would’ve made me quake if I hadn’t already settled all of this and its necessities with Zayne over the phone. I just didn’t want to rush to tell her everything.

“What am I meant to say to you?” I asked, playing to the string that she had been pulling.

Although mine was intentional, hers was explicitly vex inclined and I still chose not to sway her feelings on the matter.

“We can still get ready and go before they’re through with the rites.” She still held no intention to give up on it, although I had other pl

    MAX POVWe finally had come out of the house after a riveting speech that I had to give Rose about why we couldn’t go at it again and that she should’ve just disregarded my bribe.“You really did plan this all out with Zayne.” Rose said, having being brought to the literal carriage that I had rented out.“Welcome to your fantasy, come aboard the carriage of your dreams and have the time of your life.” The fairy grandmother that I supposedly had Zayne organize for this singular purpose had actually been a middle-aged man in a pink ballet uniform.His sight creeped the hell out of me and only caught me fixated at its guise. Rose although, didn’t see to the gust I emanated in my expression and gazes shot at him as she instead marvelled and made a smile towards me.“Let’s go Max.” She called out to me in an unsheathe manner as it seemed that she held an agitation in her every step. We finally got into the carriage and started our departure to the funeral site.“I need to tell you somethi

    ROSE POV “Why what, Rose?" Max seemed all too worried and distraught by the sudden prequel I gave to an aimless reveal.He had just sprung the news of a war brewing among members of the Mafia. I knew that even amidst his optimistic outlook on how things would play out, when the war would finally knock on our door step, there would be several fingers that would point straight at us.Such developments would inevitably force his hand into taking cognitive actions to address anyone that steps out of line.“A neighbour. There was one that confirmed Jason’s dead body for me, and the condition that it was in.” I couldn’t lie, the tears had begun to force themselves out of my eyes as a punishment for me to have been even so willing to circle the topic, unfazed.“Oh no. Rose. We probably shouldn’t be talking about this when …” Of course, I felt the pain in being made to continue going through such structured scenes in my own son’s death but that much was needed for my own healing.Mark had ea

    MAX POV“Dead man? Paul, did you do anything to vex Max?” Of course, Rose led with her quaint naivety that I adored her for. I didn’t want to tell her of how I supposedly killed the same policeman that had been standing in front of us, but I had to relent when I felt that even I couldn’t take bottling it up for so long.“I don’t think Max knows what he’s talking about.” It seemed even Paul had been trying to cover up for me. Zayne must’ve put him up to this, he was the one that had all of this planned out, of course with my nn-present help.“Okay, I can’t take it anymore. How are you alive Paul.” I couldn’t take his fearful sight any longer. My mind didn’t even fathom whether I wanted Rose to know about what I did anymore.“Huh!” Paul let out a sigh after which he started confessing for what I did.“Max shot me, right here.” He pointed to his lower abdomen, specifically at a region that seemed like It had been mummified with several layers of bandage.“Seriously?” Rose was shocked, y

    ROSE POVAs Max signed his business over a document that Paul had presented, it clearly stated that he could keep the assets and properties but he would have to relinquish all ownership right that he held over the entire share of the business.“Are you sure about this? You will no longer be a mafia boss, you will lose everything.” I tried to sway him not to give up his pride as a mafia because of me.I never actually liked the business either but I also never outwardly told Max that. Seeing as we didn’t have to struggle or beg before we saw food being served on our tables and we could laugh, smile and cry together over K-drama then sometimes slide in to sex enthralled with pleasure, the source never bothered me “Wrong, I have everything I will ever need.” He replied my attempts with the one thing I knew he felt deep down. I knew that he held me at a higher regard than he ever did his position in the mafia.The one time when he realised that I had been taken, even though he wouldn’t e

    ROSE POV“Max, let’s hear them out first.” I tried to rush into a consensus that would finally cease the storming tides of Max’s raging tempest.He wouldn’t relent in his unjust spouting of bickering as he only manged to scald his clan elders with words that wouldn’t even be professed to an ugly blind date. “This girl has seen the death of her mother. Because of her, your child met his end. As a Mafia boss, haven’t you heard what people are saying about you? Your Alpha Lord title is hanging by a thin pluck of dangling thread and we haven’t even come to how all this is affecting the clan ...” The impetus they unsheathed to spout the gallery of composed backlash at my person was appalling. I calmed myself and chose to regard them with rationale. I wasn’t going to jump at all their defacing and answer to it using the vigour that only my husband was known for. Alas, I wished the same could be employed by Max.“I want to stop you there right there. First of all, I am no longer a mafia b

    ROSE POV“Max …”“Mark …” The both of them had stared down the other as they finally led unto a conversation for the first time in more than half a year. The tension in the string of their perceived lingering resentment, that reproached each other’s presence, told so much in the tone they used to address their personas.“Come here ol’ friend. You know retirement’s really taken its toll on you …” Max couldn’t even manage to flinch fast enough and dodge a false jab that a mafia boss in a wheelchair had led to his face.“I heard you saved my life?” Max no longer doubted what we had made him believe. He was well inclined to still hold his drawbacks to be exclusively confirmed from the source.“I heard you weren’t able to figure it out in six months … I mean six months really, former mafia boss Max, really.” Of course, Mark mocked him. Really, I mean it.“I’m a little rusty and a lot busy so … let’s forget about that. Mark, you never told me you’re …” Max made to question his ever keepin

    MAX POV Rose had begun a series of reveal that rooted from the last heart-spiking moment that I had experienced during the candle light ceremony some months back in our former city.“Well, you know that the mafia bosses’ wife shot you in the chest and when you woke up, I hugged and told you that everything was alright.” She recollected back to a memory that I could clearly remember as if it were yesterday.“Yes, and I had no doubts, didn’t question anything that you said either.” I recalled back to how she had rushed to hug me after tapping her feet against the floor and for a prolonged period of time. I knew that she had held her two arms against her face, Mark wasn’t there and Zayne held May in his arms as the three of them came to embrace my coming out of the theatre.“Yes, well there was more to the story that none of us wanted to bother you with.” I couldn’t believe it. Something that far back they hadn’t deemed it fit to tell me since then. Even though I didn’t know of the bi

Rose and I have seen the best of it, although the first several months were hard because I had to heal from the surgery, it still didn’t stop me from making the most my hands especially a I started an online retail business.Rose finally gave birth something two months ago. That’s, if I was to calculate correctly, then the day she took in for Damian was when we came back from date night, high as can be and unto greater heights when I took her entire to a second haven.Of course, she still had to continue going to college but the shared assets from my mafia business that I received as compensation took care of that, and even afforded me enough to start up a new means to broaden my already started business.“Would you stop spacing out, Max?” Rose wouldn’t let me live it down that she got to drive to the grand opening.As a gift for just being who she is to the college’s community and her outstanding first-class degree, she

    ROSE POV“Now we call on this year’s valedictorian to give her opening speech.” The vice chancellor had called me out to give a speech that he only told me about the day before.Of course, I didn’t know what to do so I had set myself up to bring up empty noted and wing it on stage.“Good day all of you, humble alumni like myself, able cohort of this humble institution and people who … oh who am I kidding.” I threw the notes to the floor. Most of the guests were surprised by how fast it took me to give up but for someone that had given birth twice, it wasn’t soon enough. Making up words as I went on was hard especially as I tried to piece them through to a structured form that would please the greater share of masses I was meant to lie.“Well the truth is this, VC Gayle, over there, Vice Chancellor Gayle everyone, give him an applaud please. He’s been the best and only VC that has been with me since my first year, and he’s leaving with us, who would figure.” He had actually stood up

    MAX POVI wouldn’t tell Rose, but I was the one who encouraged Mark to leave. It hadn’t been the first time that I caught his gazes fixated on her. Earlier, I approached him to inquire more unto the truth that I knew had confronted me. He had told me of his true feelings and that was when I informed him of my plan to move from the city, away from the mafia group with Rose.“He said he’s not going to come back Max.” Rose had been worried about him and I could sense that much but there was little I could do since I was alright with his decision from the onset.I stretched my hand to her chin and climbed it till her disgruntled expression met with my gaze. “It’ll be alright Rose, he’ll be just fine. That much is obvious in how well he handled my business affairs. Besides, I’ll drag him to the christening if I have to.” “I guess you’re right. I don’t know why I was worried in the first place.” She had finally calmed down, although leaving me behind to enter unto the chatter in the main
