All Chapters of A MAFIA LOVE STORY : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

The picture. Jake.I walked up and down completely taken aback by the things Kalia had just said. What the hell was going on "Get me paul right away" I said to one of the security men. "You need to calm down Jake, please." "Calm down? Are you kidding me? Were you not here a few minutes ago or did you not hear all the things she is accusing me off?" "Anyone could have said those things Jake, these are things that are out there people can read about in newspapers, it does not mean she knows anything beyond that." "But what if she knows something?" "I think with that mouth of hers, if she knew anything she would have said something already, she is not the type to hold stuff in and if she knows something, we will deal with it." Maria was right, maybe I was just being paranoid after the stuff she pulled. But being in the business I am in, having so many enemies, not knowing who to trust, it was hard to relax, especially after what Kalia did to me. " Yes sir. " Paul said, stepping i

The party. Kalia. I was so nervous, I don't really get nervous a lot which is why this was so different and new for me. I had been so confident when I agreed to this party tonight but now I was second guessing everything, from my dress to my shoes, even the earrings I wore. This was the eleventh dress I had tried on this evening but none felt comfortable enough for the occasion. I needed to look spectacular, as much as we were going to clear the air about the controversy, this was very much the first time since the wedding we were going to be spotted in public together. I was in a black maxi dress that went all the easy down to the floor with a thigh slip that went almost up to the crotch. It was a daring dress, and it also was the wrong dress to wear to a club. I changed into a satin slip dress with little to no back at all. This is it. I whispered to myself, looking at my reflection in the mirror. I paired it up with some pink heels and a matching clutch bag. I held my hair up

Kaila. A visit to the hospital The ride home was quiet, and I appreciated Paul not trying to make small conversation, it had been a long night. "Hey, can we stop by the memorial?" I asked as we were pulling up to the main gate, I had the sudden urge to go visit my dad. I had not seen him since the day after the wedding. "The hospital, sure." Paul said, turning the car back around."I'm really sorry about this." I tried to apologize for making him drive all the way to the hospital in the wee hours of the night. "It's okay Kalia, I'm happy to help." was all he said with that smile of his. I studied him for a while, just staring at him. I didn't even notice he had realized I was looking at him. "Do you have any family left? I know you told me about your mom." I finally asked. "Not really, my mother was a single mom so after she died it has always been just me." "What about a girlfriend? A wife?" "Too busy, the job takes most of my time and I am devoted to my job, it would not be

Jake. Unexpected visitor. Seeing her at the hospital so vulnerable, I was used to the strong Kalia who looked like nothing fazed her. But I could not get her face and how hurt and sad and defeated she looked last night. A part of me wished there was something I could do to help her, take some of her pain away. But another part of me, the business side of me, had questions about the secrets she had revealed last night. Her father Mr Kiari never really married, and I always assumed he had just gotten one of his mistresses pregnant, but something about how she talked about her mother felt off. Mr Kiari never lost his wife to an accident, I would have known, one of the things he was known for was his ability to detach. I needed to find out more. "Good morning, you look happy today."Maria said, pouring me a cup of coffee. " That's because I am, " I said cheerfully." But I have a question for you " I said to Maria and she sat down. " What is it Jake?"" It's about Kiari, was he ever

Meeting part two.Kalia. He was right, nothing about us was complicated. We both knew exactly where we stood with each other. But could I separate my feelings for him from what I was supposed to do from my mission. Something was completely off, I could feel it but it could easily have been my paranoia. Since last night something had happened between us, something had changed. I know I had been vulnerable with him but it also felt like something else had changed, even the way he looked at me. He didn't look at me like he used to, with hatred. Maybe I should just let go and see how everything was going to play out. I wanted him, I wanted to feel him, to kiss him. I could easily separate my feelings for him from my mission, I tried to convince myself. He was somewhat right, nothing about us was complicated, atleast in his eyes, but that was because he didn't know what I was after, he didn't know what I was accusing him and his family off. If he knew what I did, he would never want
