Stalked by the Mafia Boss

“Let me see that.” Anne grabbed Korina’s hand excitedly, “Damn! That’s a big rock.” She gazed at her friend’s engagement ring.

“Sure is baby.” Korina smiled, “Sure is.” She had marvelled at the rock herself when he had put it on her finger and she knew it’d worth millions.

Jacs always wanted to spend on her, she wasn’t surprised at the ring price as he had got her a Lamborghini on her last birthday.

“You deserve it.” Anne hugged her, “Let’s start planning the wedding.”

“Calm down jeez.” Korina laughed, “Not too soon, come on.”

“It’s due idiot.” Daniella strode into the room with snacks, “I need babies.”

“Go have yours.” Anne snorted at her, Daniella kicked her leg and sat down.

“So about the wedding?” She asked.

“Jace wants it soon.” Korina blurted, “Like he wants to rush the wedding.”

“Why?” Anne asked, “For a wedding to be perfect, I don’t think it should be rushed.” She didn’t see why they should rush the wedding not like any of them was dying soon.

“Oh come on.” Daniella put crackers in her mouth, “Jace is loaded, Korina is a damn good baker, things are gonna go smooth even if the wedding is rushed.”

“I am not complaining of the wedding being rushed.” She sighed, “It’s just… the way he’s acting around me like he’s hiding something that he doesn’t want me to find out.” She told them.

Jace had been acting really fishy around her, weird calls, nervousness and anxiety. He even woke up in the middle of the night to take walks round the premises and if no one found it weird, she did on her path.

“Stop being paranoid.” Anne scooted over to Korina and began massaging her shoulders, “I take it that it’s the pre wedding stress.”

“Yea.” Daniella said with her mouth full, “She damn right.”

“Anyway how’s Mark and his family in Denmark.” Anne asked Korina, “How’s the new place treating them?”

“He called days ago and said it was fine.” She shrugged, “I can’t believe he’s a family man.” She laughed.

“Me too.” Anne sighed, “He used to be a big time player.”

Korina zoned out as her best friends talked about Mark, her thoughts were on Jace, she didn’t want to think he was doing anything fishy or something that would hurt her.

He looked stressed these days, she shrugged as Anne’s words invaded her mind, maybe it was actually pre wedding stress.

“I swear to God damn!” Jace growled into the phone, “I am going to end you Russo.”

“No now brother you won’t.” Russo laughed, “You would do as I say or jeopardize your wedding and your love life.”

“Russo.” Jace called, “Stay away from me and my to be family. You wouldn’t wanna cross me.”

“I am the one to threaten you here.” His half brother said angrily, he hated the fact that Jace could still boss him, “I call the shots, I have in my hands what could destroy you.”

“Russo, please what do you want?” Jace pleaded, “Anything.”

He smirked pleased that Jace was begging now, of course he wouldn’t want to lose the life he had with Korina but he was going to destroy his life anyway, he wanted to avenge his father’s death more like get back at Jace for taking over the mafia.

“I just want to ruin your life and make you miserable.” He said and ended the call before Jace could say anything.

He took his wine glass and sipped from it smirking to himself, this would be fun to watch, He laughed, finally he was going to watch Jace’s world crumble to pieces.

Jace growled in frustration and threw his phone to the wall. He had to do something fast, he had to be steps ahead of Russo and the first step was marrying Korina immediately and making sure she was his forever.

“She can’t find out Ade.” Jace said frankly pacing up and down the office, “She can’t find out what I did, I would never be able to get her back.”

“Calm down.” Ade tried to soothe him, “Do you know where he is? Russo? We need to capture him and shut him up for good.”

“I don’t.” He replied walking over to his best friend, “He had been very careful about covering up his tracks this time, fuck!”

“You need to do something.” Ade said, “We need to think of something first and something real good.”

“You think I don’t know that?” He asked not expecting a question.

They were silent for a while before Jace finally spoke.

“I would marry her tomorrow and we move far way from here immediately.”

Ade looked at his besfriend in schock, “What man?!” He asked alarmed, “Tomorrow?”

“Yes, that’s the only thing to do, I need to have her bound to me should something crazy happen.”

Ade looked at his best friend, he knew the look he saw in his eyes and he knew that once Jace had that look there was no turning back on his decision.

“Marriage? Tomorrow?” Korina laughed, “Dude no.” She said, “Are you that excited to finally have me or it’s something else.”

“God no korina.” He said hastily and then hugging her from behind, “Excited? Yes, Hiding something? Nope.”

“Then why you wanna get married to me tomorrow?” She asked not believing him.

“Okay, fine.” He said, “We’d get married in two days time.”

“Nope Jace.” She argued, “The least I can do is in a week’s time.”

“Four days.” He bargained turning her towards him, “Just four days please.”

“Okay.” She sighed agreeing not being able to resist his pleading eyes, “Four days.”

“Thank you.” He kissed her on the lips, “I love you.”

“I love you too.” She smiled.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

She went into the bathroom and took out the pregnancy test strip discreetly, the test result was ready now.

She took a look at it and saw the lines, it read positive. Her mind leapt seeing the results, guess I would have to get married sooner after all.
