“Don’t worry,” Victor nodded in understanding, “I knew if I killed him that instant, your opinion of me would change. So l -“.
…..
“Let it play out before me.” She looked him in the eyes, “No matter what, Draco would eventually come back for revenge. Neither you nor I, none of us are safe with him alive.” She said it all.
He sighed, “Our world is not in black and white, Mimi. It’s black entirely and you have to get used to it. You’re already in, there’s no going back, my love.”
Mimi’s heart skipped a beat, that was what she was scared of and it finally happened. What had she even been expecting in the first place, getting involved with them. It just didn’t hit her how dangerous this was until recently.
“But don’t worry,” Victor roused her from her thoughts, “As long as I’m alive, I promise you one thing though, no harm will come your way. I swear it upon my life.”
Mimi knew he meant every word he said with that fire in his eyes that stole her breath away. He looked so charming right now. A-hem! What the hell was she thinking?!
Mimi coordinated her thoughts and was able to smile at him, “Thank you.”
“You don’t need to thank me. Me and my family, we turned your life upside down. It’s the least I can do to compensate you for the loss you suffered.” And would suffer in the future, Victor didn’t add that one. He didn’t want to scare her further.
Even if he wanted to let her go now, it was kind of impossible. Their fate was greatly entangled now, not to mention that he was a selfish bastard. He liked her and would not let go.
The both of them dwelled in a comfortable silence until they reached her place when he suddenly said, “You know, you could spend the night with me?”
Mimi gulped, she knew what he was offering but she hesitated, “I’m sorry but my parents saw me go to bed, they would expect me in the morning. “And she wasn’t lying, but it was a convenient excuse. She could easily come up with an excuse to explain her disappearance to her parents, but Victor can’t know that. Everything was going too fast; she needed to think.
“Alright then.” Victor packed across the street so he didn’t wake her parents up since she was about to sneak back in and erase any evidence she ever left the house that night.
The street was almost empty, well, who would be awake by two in the morning. It was amazing how those Mafia men could work efficiently at night, Mimi could already feel exhaustion sipping into her bones.
“Stay safe, Mimi,” Victor said, surprisingly pecking her on the cheek without going in for the full kiss – and she kind of felt disappointed.
Get your head in the game, Mimi! Don’t be carried away by those gestures. He’s just messing around, she told herself.
With a deep breath, Mimi grabbed the door and was about to leave when she turned and suddenly asked him,
“What does this mean to you?”
“What?”
“These changes in our friendship? Me? What do I mean to you?” She asked him bravely without taking her eyes off him. It was now or never.
“I honestly don’t know.” was Victor’s reply that made her heart sink until he added, “But all I know is that I love to be with you. Each moment I spend with you is worth it, Mimi.”
“Really?” Her eyes brightened.
“Really. ” He said with finality, clasping her cheeks.
“What about your other women?” Mimi knew she wasn’t one for sharing. When she’s dating someone, her man’s hers alone.
“For how long have you seen me with a woman?” He asked her.
Now Mimi thought about it, it has been quite a while since she’s seen that. The Victor she previously knew couldn’t go a day without a woman by his side. If there’s anyone he’s been hovering around lately, it was her…. Oh, God.
Victor smirked when she saw the dots connect in her head and then he was leaning down, seeking her lips.
“I guess we could give it a try…” She was still saying when his lips met her and the air became charged.
Mimi kissed him with careless abandon, now they were on the same side, the worry had been lifted off her chest. The kiss was so intense that Mimi knew at once they were doing it in the car, she couldn’t wait any longer – and neither could he.
Her shirt was gone in the next minute and Victor took her breast – he hadn’t been able to take his eyes off throughout the night – into his mouth. He pleased her to the point Mimi couldn’t differentiate her right from her left.
And the next, her hands were working on his belt while he worked on her tight denim shorts in the cramped space of the car. They worked it out somehow and Mimi found herself slamming down on his hard member.
“F*ck!” She gasped, feeling his hardness stretch her. The fullness he created inside of her was so euphoric she wanted to drown on it. And then, she was riding him to an orgasm that would sure as hell blow their mind away.
Adele Insulted Ten Men In The Room
Elijah woke up with a grunt the next day. He needed his beauty sleep after the stress of last night, however, he needed to prepare for the meeting they had with Adele today.
As soon as he was out of the bed, Elijah dropped to the ground, performing a series of press-ups and pretty other exercises that required endurance. Sweat rolled down his face with his body screaming for a break but he didn’t give up.
The worst thing that could ever happen to him was getting out of shape and he was in a precarious position more than ever. He had to be fit and ready for action.
Lukas wouldn’t be slacking off either, so he had to be prepared for when they met. He couldn’t wait for that day when they met face to face.
When he was done, Elijah got into the bathroom where he freshened up and donned a casual outfit. He has never been the type to dress meticulously unless he had a purpose or is on a mission. Not to mention, everything looked good on him; he had the perfect body.
Just like everyone else, he arrived at the restaurant earlier than the expected time. Adele was strict about her schedule and he had to make a good first impression. Unlike Cindy, Adele was Elijah’s target and the only person that could get him closer to Lukas. He needed her in this plan.
Compared to the previous times, Elijah was treated with more respect by his colleagues. Their opinion of him seems to have changed after that fight with John. Hence, he went from a “pretty face” to a “respected” face. Unlike the others, he was the only one amongst them prompted, hence, a few of them admired him while the rest were full of envy.
However, what surprised Elijah the most was when John, the colleague he defeated at the club that day, walked up to him with his hulky form and his body coiled with tension thinking that the man was coming for a confrontation.
They couldn’t fight here, not when Adele was minutes away from arriving and he was sure John understood that as well. So Aziz calmed down, but his guard was up. If anything happened, he was defending himself.
…..
But John did the opposite of what he thought, the man thrust out his hand instead and Elijah recognized that instant that he was seeking peace. He accepted the gesture, enveloping his strong, huge hand with his.
“Thanks for kicking my ass,” He grinned at him.
“Gladly.” Elijah smiled back.
The huge man pulled him into a side hug, patting him on the back like a beloved brother would and their colleagues cheered. It seems that the prejudice they held against him was cleared with that one fight.
“That’s a good one there,” Adele entered without announcing, causing all of them to turn in her direction.
They all stared transfixed at the women who walked with vigor and confidence and some of the men couldn’t help but sigh in awe. Unlike the usual Luciano with their typical gray eyes and mostly brunette hair gene, Adele was a huge contract.
She alone in the family had ink-black hair that was currently pulled in a sleek ponytail and her dark eyes looked ahead fearlessly. Adele wore a suit that accentuated her slender yet athletic shape. She looked fit and the men in that room had no doubt she would take on any of them if the need called for it.
