All Chapters of Marrying the Mafia's Daughter: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

MAVERICKI stepped back and opened the door wide as my invitation. He followed in, instantly cupping my head, and then his mouth was on mine. He leaned forward, gripped my hips, and kissed me hard.God, I hoped I wouldn’t regret this. We both needed this. Tonight, it’s just him and me having a good time. He tugged my hair and kissed me hard as he started walking me backward towards my bed.As if we couldn’t wait any longer, I pulled his shirt over his head, and he took off mine. Then I helped myself get off my pajama bottom and my panties, and he quickly took off his jeans and boxers.His naked body was perfection, and his thick cock was erect and proud. “Get in bed. Spread your legs apart.”“Bossy.” I groaned as I followed his order like a good wife. I lay in bed and watched him crawl and growl as I began to touch myself. I bit my bottom lip as I felt my arousal coating my finger.Before I could pleasure myself more, my hand was gone, and he took it to his mouth and sucked it.I suck

MAVERICKShock was an understatement. And here I thought maybe he genuinely didn’t know my birthday. Then here we were, my friends were having fun, and even my grandmother was with me on my special day.When Nana got sick, I stopped celebrating my birthday. I thought, what’s the point? I only have a few people who are constants in my life. I was always grateful for another year, but that was it—no celebration.I watched my friends sing on the Karaoke with amusement. Genesis, though, had a golden voice. There was supposed to be a live band today, but somehow, Lake managed to book the entire bar for the night.“So nice to finally meet you, Mrs. Winston.”I looked at my side. An African-American woman in her dress was reaching out her hand.“Hi. Yeah. We haven’t formally introduced. Just Maverick.” I shook her hand. “Pleasure to meet you.”“I’m Venus. I worked for your husband for three years as his assistant.”“I never saw you come to the penthouse.”“Ow, he never asked me for a persona

LAKEMy heart fell, and I found it hard to find a better word to reply, or I would make it more awkward than it already was. “What are we exactly? Just a marriage of convenience? We fuck every night, go separate ways and do our jobs during day time. Then, after eleven months, we bid goodbye. Is that what you want?”She didn’t say anything but look me in the eye, and her silence made me more uncomfortable.“I know I hurt you, and that’s why I’m trying hard to gain the trust I broke. And what we have here is special. I can feel it. We have something worth working out. Or am I the only one who feels this? Tell me, Maverick. Lay your cards on me. What do you want?”She turned away, leaving me confused and shattered.***“What are we waiting for?” I tapped my fingers on the armrest impatiently, facing Linden. He decided that we meet at the Osmium so no one could know about this meeting, so discreet that I’d been dying to know the information he found about Maverick’s possible father.“Ju

MAVERICK“Hey, Nana.” I kissed her on the cheek even if she wasn’t too excited to see me. “Did you take your medicine?”She went back to the kitchen, continued working on her pecan pie, and slid it into the oven.“Are you okay?” I dropped the grocery bags on the floor and grabbed a clean towel as she removed dirty utensils and brought them to the sink. I cleaned the table, waiting for her reply. “Nana, what’s going on?”“You lied to me,” she said sharply, her hand on her hip. Her face hardened, eyes filling with anger.“About what, exactly? You know I never lied to you.” My stomach lurched instantly.“Do you think I’m stupid? I raised you, Ricky. I know you very well when you hide something from me. I taught you better than that. You disappoint me, young lady.”“Nana, please. What are you talking about?”She gave me her back and went on cleaning the sink. “Go home.”“Nana, just tell me, please?” It broke my heart, hurting her.She was more than just my grandmother. She became my mothe

MAVERICK“It hurt so much. I couldn’t forget the look on her face.” I sat on his lap, my arms around him. “She hates me. I’ve never seen her so angry at me until today. I failed her, Lake.”“Hey. It’s okay. It’s gonna be okay. I promise I will fix this. We will fix this. Your Nana doesn’t hate you. She is maybe angry right now, but let it cool down for a few days.”“You don’t know her. I’ve made mistakes in my life, but she always understood. She never got mad. She always told me that it’s part of growing up, that life is a never-ending process of growth, and we should learn from our mistakes. But today, she said she never wanted to see me again. She kicked me out of the house.”“You should have called me. I would have come here instantly, and you didn’t have to cry alone.” He kept rubbing my back to soothe me, but some things could not heal with words or comfort, and that was what I felt right now.“I couldn’t afford to lose Nana, Lake. She’s the only family I have left.” I still con
