Semua Bab A Kiss and Nothing More - Mafia Love: Bab 1 - Bab 10

“Now, you owe me,” the seductive man whispered in Lina's ear, applying light kisses there. She held on to his arm to keep herself from collapsing.“What do you want?” She asked, unable to think straight. “You. Indefinitely.”*MINUTES BEFORE*“Damn, Lina...” Maddie said, with her eyes wide open. Lina turned around and saw Noah walking in with a skinny blonde. Lina moved her body, facing away from the couple.“Screw him!” Lina said quietly, drinking some more of her Moscow Mule.“He's an asshole...” Maddie shook her head negatively while looking disapprovingly at Noah and his girlfriend.Lina continued to drink. She was already on the third mug, when Maddie grabbed her arm, indicating with her head that it was enough.“Maddie, tell me the truth... Am I that unattractive?”“Oh, for God’s sake, Lina! You're beautiful, you just don't dress like all those other girls. And you also don’t behave like them,” Maddie patted Lina on the back.“You only say that because you're my friend,

“Our boss ordered us to come and fetch you, miss,” the tallest of them said, with a serious and emotionless voice.“Well, you did what he asked. You guys came all this way, haven’t you?” Lina replied. “But if he wants me to get in that car so much, he'd better come talk to me himself!”The men didn't insist. Lina passed them and continued walking. Luckily, the bus was arriving, and she ran to it, getting in eagerly.“My goodness, girl, calm down!” said the driver.“Sorry, ma’am!” she apologized and looked behind the vehicle. The black car was no longer there. She let out the breath she was holding and collapsed onto one of the seats. During the entire journey, she kept looking out the window, but she didn't see any cars like that one along the way. Lina got off at the bus stop and looked around. Nothing. She bolted to her building and quickly ran up the stairs. Lina realized that she would have to stay hungry until her friend returned. They were out of food and Lin

If there was one thing Vince hated, it was being deceived, used, devalued. He felt himself going through these three stages, with that woman with honey hair and eyes like the sea.‘That hot bitch had the nerve to make me look like a fool!’, he thought, angrily, as he punched the table. Yes, she was hot as hell, and he wasn't about to let her get out of that situation without him getting something out of it. Never, since he became a man and started going out with girls, had he been treated like that, like a simple... He didn't even have an adjective for that! A mere means to reach an ex-boyfriend who certainly couldn’t even compare to him! ‘So humiliating…’, he closed his eyes as he thought about it. A knock on the door and Gambini entered. “Ah, Mr. Bonaccorso ... Is there a problem?” Gambini asked, rubbing his hands nervously. He saw when Lina almost ran out of the V.I.P. room and, as she passed by him, she said absolutely nothing other than tha

“Very well,” he replied and nodded briefly. “I'll give you a week. You have one week to give me an answer.” Vince reached into his jacket and pulled out a card and handed it to her. “Thank you,” Lina responded automatically as she held up the card. “When you decide, you call me at this number. Only when you decide you want it. If your answer is no, you don't need to call me at all.” “Deal. Can I get out, now?” she asked, nervously. The car was already parked in front of her building. Lina smiled, even more anxiously. If he knew her address, he had really wanted to know about her life.“Fucking shit!’ she cursed her stupid idea and also, Noah, for making her act like an imbecile. ‘No, it’s my fault. He didn’t force me to be stupid.’ “Sure. But...” She stopped with her hand on the car handle. “But…?” “Are you sure you don't want to make out first? Without commitment. Maybe this will be th

*TWENTY YEARS BEFORE*“Come on, Vince. Time to go to bed!” Gioconda said and knocked on the boy's door, who was playing video games. “Ah, mom... just a little bit more!” “No, sir! It's time for you to go to bed. Tomorrow, you have class, young man,” she said and smiled. Vincenzo’s eyes were the same as his mother’s. That was the only physical trait you could see of her on the boy. The face and structure were completely his father's. “Ah, okay...” the eight-year-old boy said, getting up from the bed and going to turn off the game. He went to his mother, kissed her cheek and walked towards the bed. “No, no... Brush your teeth first. I know you haven't brushed your teeth yet.” He grumbled but did as she told him. Gioconda left the boy's bedroom and closed the door behind her. Vincenzo had tap running, as he usually did. Gioconda always said he should turn it off, to save water. And, because of this usual behavior, he d
