Wanted By The Mafia Lord; Attracted to the Bad Boy Nextdoor Chapter 93
Jacqueline’s POV With each step that I took, professor Philips’ gaze lingered on me, his ocean blue eyes sucking me into a world of its own. While the bell sound still lingered in the air, students making an exit for their next lectures, his eyes never wavered from mine. My bag dangled freely from my right shoulder, and as I stood before him, I kept my eyes on my shoes, not daring to stare into his eyes again. Even with his presence alone, a replay of our previous night flashed through my mind like a vivid movie. My cheeks burned and it took my whole strength not to make a bolt for the door. Professor Philips raised my test papers before me and the fluttering sounds pulled me from my reverie, “your answers are all wrong.” His words were sharp, brutal, but I remained calm, slowly lifting my head to stare at him. His brows were knitted in confusion, like he'd expected me to do better, ace his test, but how was I supposed to answer the question with a temptation before me? With his sce

Philips’ POV“Steak, red wine and a large bowl of meatballs. What more could I ask for?” Hudson rubbed his hands as he stared at the meal before us, licking his lips hungrily. Feeling a twinge of irritation at his words, I wrapped my fingers around my glass of wine and took a small sip. The soft murmurs of people lingered in the air as waiters moved around, taking people's orders. Strangely, my regular lunch spot bustled with life, people trooping in and out of the restaurant. Being surrounded by so many people made me uncomfortable, but with Hudson around, I couldn't resist his pleas. With the familiar flavor on the tip of my tongue, my lips curled up, “Your obsession with steak is fascinating.” I commented, watching as he hungrily devoured his filled plate, “Aren't you on duty today? You got here quite early.” Hudson grinned, “I'm off duty for the next few days.” He replied, never tearing his gaze from the steak, “I'm going to need all the time in the world to plan my wedding.”

/-Octavia-/My body curled on the floor, trembling as the tears streamed down my cheeks. Another kick met me in the stomach, and I rolled, wincing. He took the opening to assault my ribs, and I was screaming helplessly, begging him to stop. I didn't know how much I could take anymore. My heart was constricting tightly; even my lungs were gradually closing up, restricting my airflow. "Please stop... Please..." I sobbed, but my pleas fell on deaf ears. He wasn't going to stop. Nothing would make him stop until I was unconscious or possibly dead. The next blow sent blood gushing out of my mouth. "Pa..." I cried, "it hurts. It hurts."I spat out more blood, and his feet connected to my face; the kick had my blood vessels bursting open. At least that is what it felt like. "I am not your father!" He barked. "How many times do I have to warn you?"He slammed his foot against my chest, pressing down so hard as if the intention was to crush my heart. "Just how worthless can you be?!"A k

/-Octavia-/Six Years Later.I ascended the stairs with a small bag resting on my shoulder. The loud music blazing from the speakers was almost deafening. It wasn't hard to spot Axel in the VIP section with a couple of men. I headed towards him, and his eyes lit up on seeing me. "There comes my Queen," he smirked, and the men's attention shifted to me. The lustful gazes that penetrated my skin didn't bother me. I was in nothing but lingerie and a bra, so it was expected for them to lust after my body. The scars that my father had inflicted on me were concealed, of course. I dropped the bag on the table and sat on his lap. He handed me a cigarette and lit it for me. "The package is already here, as you can see. You can unveil and have a taste of it if you want," Axel said, then turned his attention to me. I dropped my head and kissed him. The bag was opened, and the bags of cocaine were taken out. One of the bags was powered, and a small amount of powder was displayed on the ta

/-Octavia-/The coffee shop was the only thing of value I possessed. The light in my miserable, dark world.You'd think six years of stripping and doing his dirty work would have been enough to pay for my father's death, but he told me to my face that even if I worked for the next hundred years, I would only be able to pay half of it. An amount he had yet to mention to me. He gave me a little change here and there from the night's work, and I saved everything up to open this little, beautiful shop. When Axel found out about it, he laughed, of course, asking if I planned to clear my father's debt from the earnings of a coffee shop. The words hurt my feelings, but I was already used to him putting me down at every slight opportunity. I was already resigned to my fate of belonging to him forever. There was nothing I could do to change it, no matter how many men I slept with or how many bags of cocaine I transported. I opened the coffee shop with a bright smile on my face. This plac

/-Octavia-/It was lunch break, and usually I made some brownies and cookies for those who liked to have coffee in the afternoon.Just as I took off my apron and headed to the front desk, someone walked in.It was probably the milky scent that caught my attention, but as my eyes connected with those oceanic blue eyes, I knew I was in for trouble."What are you doing back here?" I blurted before I could stop myself. Nile was visibly startled by my hostility, but I didn't care. I wanted him to leave before Axel showed up unexpectedly and caused more trouble. "That is not the way to treat a customer." He smiled it off. "I enjoyed your coffee. Came to get another and leave a large tip, of course."A smile threatened to burst out of my lips. He was so kind and soft-spoken. Why couldn't Axel be like that? Why did I have to end up with someone cruel?I didn't let my worries show on my face."What type of coffee? I have muffins and cookies too. You can get some for a couple of cents," I to

OCTAVIA'S POVI caught myself staring into thin air more times than I can admit today. My heart still skips a beat anytime I remember how Nile said he would keep being a regular till I'm ready to accept him. Axel is not going to like this. I closed the coffee shop for the day and headed down the sidewalk to the one-room box-like apartment I rented close to the shop that I don't even get the luxury of sleeping in and took a quick shower. I stare at two teenage girls arguing in front of a dress shop on which color of dress is best to wear to prom as I headed to the casino, where I spend six out of seven nights of the week. Sometimes I wonder how my life would have been if my mom was still alive. "Would I have gone to college? "Would Philip still be alive and nice to me?". I shrugged off the thoughts and put a lock over my mind and put on my mask of coolness. Maybe if Axel would have a problem with me today. The ground floor was filled to the brim with dancing and grinding bodies, as to

OCTAVIA'S POV There's a certain bounce in my steps as I walk into the casino today. I've been at peace for a while now, and even Axel's dirty looks and harsh words did nothing to dampen my mood. For the past three weeks, Nile has come to the casino almost every day and books me every night. I know he does it on purpose to protect me from entertaining other patrons, and I'm so grateful for it. It's almost as if he cares about me. We spend some nights just talking about random things, and sometimes we watch movies, and on some days we don't talk just eat in the comfortable quiet. Tonight is one of those nights. I came with a book I started reading earlier yesterday and made myself comfortable in my usual chair and started reading. "There's something I want to talk to you about," he started.I turned to face him. "Okay, go ahead." "What do you think about going back to college?" I used to dream of going to college the first two years since I started working as a stripper, but when it

JACQUELINE'S POVI lift my hand to wave the bartender over, my eyes pleading for another drink. Anything to numb the pain. But before I could even slur my order, a firm hand gripped mine."Stop, I think you've had enough," a low, smooth voice said.I tried to pull my hand away, but my movements were rough. "L-let me go," I stuttered, my words barely making any sense. He had taken me here why was he suddenly against itThe stranger ignored me, settling the tab with the bartender. He effortlessly lifted me off the stool, and I leaned on him unable to walk myself."Wh-where...?" I trailed off, giggling uncontrollably. "Your address?" he asked, his voice firm but gentle. "Oh no!" I slurred giggling "Mummy said not to talk to strangers"I just laughed again, unable to form any real words.He sighed, checking us into a hotel room. I was hardly aware of being placed on a soft bed.I tried to sit up, but the room spun around me like a carnival ride. I fell back onto the pillow, my eyes b

As he drove through the winding streets, Mikel’s mind churned and he tried to compose himself. He has to play this carefully. Lionel isnt stupid. If he gets even a whiff of Mikel’s involvement in the attack on Octavia, it would be the end for him. But Mikel had been in the game long enough to know how to cover his tracks. He can always deflect, deceive, and manipulate his way out of suspicion like he always did. The initial plan had been simple, to eliminate Lionel, and since he didn’t have any children, he would automatically become the next don. Bryon would not be stupid enoigh to go against him. Over the years, he had been making, slow and calculated efforts to undermine subtly Lionel’s authority while gaining the loyalty of key players within the organization. But then that bitch Octavia came along and is ruining everything as everyone has taken a liking to her. She had put a wrench in his plan and messed everything up. He can't kill Lionel now as he planned because Octavia wou

OCTAVIA'S POV I woke up sore the next morning, every muscles in my body seemed to protest as I swung my legs off the bed. None of the training we had was anything compared to what happened last night. The first thought that came to my mind was Aaron, I quickly washed up, got dressed and hurried down the hallway to his room, I didn't even remember to knock as I pushed the door open and stepped inside. There he was, he was awake and sitting up with his back resting against the headboard. The sight of him looking so alive filled me with so much relief, I hadn't realised how scared I was till now. A lot of improvement has happened within the night, it seems. He looks significantly better compared to yesterday, I noticed as I walked up to him. He is color is almost completely back now and the way his lips quirked in a smirk confirmed that he is feeling better. He torso was completely bare save for the bandages covering his middle section and the sight of his bare chest made me pause for

OCTAVIA Mikel gave a slight chuckle but it held no real humor. “Of course, I am scared to imagine what would have happened if he wasn't there, what were you doing in such a place anyway. The don't already own many casinos and club if you wanted to experience night life, you didn't have to do all the way there, see what happened." I clenched my teeth, this feels like a scolding, he didn't let me respond before he continued, "It was a reckless situation. But then again…” He paused, his gaze sharpening, and I braced myself for whatever he was about to say. “You are woman trying to play in a man’s world. Things like this are bound to happen.”I stared at him, the air leaving my lungs for a second. My temper flared. “What’s that supposed to mean?” I asked, my voice icy.Mikel shrugged, as though he were simply stating facts. “You know how it is, Octavia. In the mafia, women don’t usually involve themselves in these kinds of affairs. They get married and help to secure alliances and repa

OCTAVIA'S POV The ride home is not supposed to take more than one hour but it feels like I have been driving for hours and we have only covered half of the journey. My finger gripped the steering wheel so tightly that my knuckles have started to turn white.I kept glancing at Aaron, he couldn't sit upright anymore and he is now slumped on the sit. He has gotten even paler, I didn't that is even possible, his usually olive-coloured skin now looks ashen. “Aaron,” I said, my voice breaking the tense silence. “Hope you are still awake." “I’m not sleeping,” he muttered, though his eyes are barely open. “You look like you’re seconds away from passing out,” I couldn’t hide the worry in my voice and I didn't even bother to try. “Talk to me. Say something. Anything.” “Fine,” he grunted. “You’re terrible at driving.” I glared at him, though I knew he couldn’t see it. “That’s not true.” “Stop lying to yourself,” he said, his voice sounds weak but his statement is still laced with infur
Wanted By The Mafia Lord; Attracted to the Bad Boy Nextdoor Chapter 86
OCTAVIA'S POV My heart is pounding so loudly in my chest that I won't be surprised if Aaron can hear it. I pressed my back against the cold wall behind me, and held my breath as the guy in the mask approached us. Aaron’s hand that was holding mine tightened around my wrist, at first glance, he looks so calm but I can see from they way he back is tensed as he crouched in front of me. The man grew closer and every step he took felt like a hammer strike to my heart and I tightened my grip on the gun in my hand. I know these people are here because of me, I am not stupid, I saw that the man had pointed the gun directly at me earlier, not Aaron, not anyone else but me. Our eyes had met for a brief second before chaos ensued. But why? Why would anyone want me dead? I tried to think of anyone that I have met that would want me dead, apart from Allister who is already dead now, I can't think of any reason why someone would want me dead.Nothing makes sense, it is obvious that this is not
