All Chapters of Her Mate Turns out to be the Mafia King: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Mila’s POVAfter a breakfast of French toast covered in fruit and whipped cream, Isabella takes me back to her house where we watch movies and bing on junk food. I should call my stepmother and tell her what happened, but I can’t bring myself to ruin all the work Isabella has put into trying to help me forget what happened today. One more day or pretending that woman isn’t a part of my life and then I can go home and let all her vile words roll off me. Her other punishments will take more effort to ignore, but I’ve survived this long on far less to distract me with.Isabella’s able to find out that I have to work again tonight at some point between the mimosas at breakfast and the strawberry margaritas after lunch. Yeah, it was that kind of day. She talked me into wearing another outfit of her choosing. It didn’t escape my notice that it looks a lot more my style than any of her clothes ever have. I’m going to have to ask her about that when my head isn’t spinning over the fact that I

Mila’s POVI was doing well with not looking in the direction of where I saw Julian sit when he was done greeting people. It’s the same place he sat last night, and it didn’t take long for the booth to fill up with women and other guests.A woman touched him, getting closer and closer. Julian looked a little excited.That’s when I decided to look that way would only make the ache in my chest hurt more.He really saw me as nothing more than some random girl he had sex with. For a second, when I was in his office, I thought…It doesn't matter what I thought, because last night was a mistake. One I don’t plan to make again.“Hello there, beautiful.” Someone says as I’m fixing up a drink.My head lifts to get a quick glance at the guy with a retort on my tongue, but it died on my tongue when I saw the man in front of me. The sight of him took me so much by surprise that I end up spilling the drink I had been working on.“Shit, sorry, I didn’t mean to startle you.” He says with a sympathet

Mila's POV“Where the hell have you been?” I’m shoved back against the door before I’m able to close it all the way, knocking the wind out of me.When I went home after work, I snuck in through my window so I didn’t have to face my stepmom when I was already feeling off by what happened the last couple of days. I wanted a good night of sleep so that today wouldn’t feel so hard. Of course, that means she thinks I’ve been gone this whole time. I should have known she would be furious, but I couldn’t hide from her forever.I have to suck in a few weak pulls of air to try and catch my breath before I can give her an excuse. She didn’t let me. This time she was beyond her normal level of mad. This time, she slapped me across the face the second I opened my mouth. I cried out and fell to the floor. My hand comes up to cover the part of my face where she struck me, and I look up at her with genuine fear. It’s been a while since she hit me in the face or anywhere visible, but today she did. I

Julian’s POVI blink my eyes open and groan at the intense head ache currently wreaking havoc in my head.“What- ““You’re awake.” The family sound of my father’s voice makes me groan loudly.“What are you doing here, dad?” I say while I rub my eyes.I’m in no mood to deal with him, but with this headache, I don’t think I could escape him now.“I’m here because you destroyed an entire room in this house and took off in the middle of the night in your wolf form. Anyone could have seen you Julian, how could you be so careless?”I guess we’re jumping right into things then.“I was angry and lost control, but I wasn’t seen and I didn’t hurt anyone. Okay?”Even though I want to nurse this headache for a few more hours, there isn’t time. I can’t show any weakness, and the way I lost control last night is bound to get around. Especially if my suspicions are true and we have a mole. Roman would use this incident against me if only to rile me up.“What are you really here for, dad? Are you fin

Julian’s POVAfter I watch Mila walk away, I’m in a bad mood again. She pulled away from me and the ache has only gotten worse since she left, but I have to get this shit assignment from my dad done fast so I can work on fixing things between us. I’m fixing against hundreds of years of instinct passed through generations to stay away from Mila, which only pisses me off more. If I didn’t have plans to deal with my father already in motion, then I would rip his damn head from his body.Pushing aside plans of murder for now, I storm down the path to the library again. The large building is hard to miss once I get closer. Although most of the buildings here look like they have been around for a hundred years, there have been clear attempts to repair and modernize things slightly. The library, though, it looks like it hasn’t been touched. I would stop and admire the architectural art of its design if I wasn’t in a hurry to find this girl.Someone pushes the door open and a small group of s
