****Alice Anderson"Oh my goodness! Susan! What are you doing here?!" Chloe exclaimed in an excited tone before moving forward to engulf her in a tight hug. "Is that a question or a statement? You girls better tell me you're not happy to see me here" she said with her eyes rolled. "Oh come on, you know that's not what she meant to say. Just that, you never told us you'll be coming to New York today. What's going on girl" Samantha said. "Hey girls" a guy right behind her waved at us. "Hey, Lucas" they all answered except me. Of course, I do not know who the guy is but, I definitely know the girl beside him."Alice, it's nice to finally meet you" the guy said stretching out his hand for a handshake. I look from his hand back to his face then from his face back to his hand. I slowly and gently took his hand for a handshake and asked. "Yo.. you know me?" "Yes, Ken has told me a lot about you." He answered. "Okay girls, I think y'all are on your way out. I will see you soon, okay?

Alice Anderson"I begin to know how to use guns, any sort of gun. I was trained to know how to fight. I went for 9 months of martial defense training. I was trained more like a guy rather than a girl. I came to love everything that I do then, Dom open up to me. The reason why he has always tried his best in making me the best was that he wanted me to become someone like him. He wanted me to become a Mafia. I... I ought to be angry or rather, scared but, I found it much more interesting and I wanted to do it badly. Not because I feel, if I don't, he might end up hating me but because I wanted to repay him for all the kindness he has shown me""Dom is like a father I never had. He has always tried to make me happy, getting me things, and helping me acquire not only a degree but also a Msc certificate. I was able to own different things, I owned a big restaurant all thanks to him. I... I see him as my father and he took me as his daughter he never had. I was so happy to have met him and

Kenneth Domanco"Ken, you're making the wrong choice by leading this girl on. I mean, she seems like a good girl to me than you have portrayed her to be. You made her look like the bad girl but the truth is, that girl is a very good and humble woman. What happens when she finds out you've been playing with her feelings? She will be upset at you" Max hissed as he said that. "Do I look like I care? I do not fucking care about her feelings. All I needed from her is my right and once I get it, I'm going to send her away from me forever""And you think, that's going to be possible? I could see it in your eyes, the way you looked at her earlier, you cared for her" Andrew said. "Care?" I scoff. "That's a big word to use. Whatever I'm doing, I'm doing it because I wanted her to feel like I have something for her, that's all""You will regret this, Ken. Trust me" Lucas said. "I won't regret anything and, can y'all stop ganging up on me because of some girl I brought to meet with you guys?"

Alice Anderson"Are you sure?" Sam asked again. "Of course, their cars are here already" she announced again. "Okay, Alice. You need to calm down, okay? Just take a deep breath and calm yourself down. You can do this" I mentally said to myself. I looked at myself one last time in the mirror before we all sauntered downstairs with my friends in my front while I was left at the back for a reason best known to them. We got to the living room and I heard his voice asking after me. "where's Alice?" "Oh! Lover boy is eager to see his girl, huh?" Sofia teased. I could tell he just rolled his eyes at her right now. "Don't tell me, she isn't dressed yet? She has enough time to get herself dressed, I'm sure, you're the reason why it took her this long before getting dressed. She's never this type who wants to look extravagant" he said but, I do not know who he's accusing though. "Hey, don't you dare accuse my wife. Don't forget, you're in my house" Oh! It's Sofia again- I thought, chuckl

Alice Anderson"Erm, no, no. That's not what I meant to say. Just that, it hasn't crossed my mind yet and, I have no idea you will like the idea of having kids together." "What are you talking about? We agreed to take things slowly between us by getting to know each other more right? If I do not want to have anything to do with you, do you think, I will be doing all of these things with you? No way, I'm going to do that Alice""I'm sorry" I apologized. "Why are you sorry?" He looked confused. "For not thinking about our future, I'm sorry for that" I apologized again by explaining myself. "Hey, it's fine okay?" He took my left hand and kissed my knuckle. My body shivered at that gesture from him. I have no idea where all this is leading, yes, I know we're about to get married and, my heart has started to feel something deep for him but, what about him? Did he feel anything for me yet or, he's still trying hard to convince himself that he wants this with me?I looked at him one last

Alice Anderson"He also asked since I have nowhere to go if it will be okay with me to take me away with him and I said yes to him without thinking twice. At that moment, I only needed someone who would show me nothing but love. I was still very young and all the people I met only use me to make money. I can't even eat food properly but would be given a little portion of food. Dom took me home, told one of his maids to bath me and he even got me plenty of dresses.""He told me he did some research about me and my Dad's name is Anderson Diego and my mom is Camella but, I couldn't remember anything. I can't even remember their faces so, how would I remember their name? I only know of one thing and that's my name."I was so happy. He took all the necessary steps just to take me in as his daughter. Later on, he told me my name would be Alice Anderson Domanco." I just saw the surprised look on Ken's face. "Yes, I never use Dom's name because everyone knows who he's. Knowing that I'm his d

Alice AndersonI finished telling him everything but the look this man is giving me right now is kinda making me feel so uncomfortable right now. What's going on with him? "Hey, are you okay?" I softly asked and at the same time, our meal arrived. The aroma of the food filled in my nostril. All I wanted to do right now is to dig my hands into it and eat all the food like there would be no tomorrow. After serving us, I thanked the two waitresses and they left. Ken, on the other hand, got up from his seat and walk to my side of the table. He stared down at me but it was annoying how I can't even read his face right now. This man only lets me in whenever he wants to and if he doesn't want to allow me in, he knows how to lock everything up."Ken, what's going on? What are you doing?" I asked, confused. He suddenly crouched to my level and held my two hands up to his lip and kissed my knuckle. I still sat there confused about what was going on, I have no idea what this man is up to now.

Alice Anderson"Ken..." I called out his name softly. "Come on, let's eat" he said as he tried taking his fork to eat. "Ken...?" I called out his name again. "Yes?" "You haven't told me anything yet about you. I believe, there's more to know, don't you think?" "Yo be sincere with you Alice, there's nothing special about me and, I have nothing to say. You know how I grew up, right? Spending my whole years in another country just to get trained so, that's it. Come on, let's eat our meal. It's getting cold already and we still have a long day" he said before scooping on his meal. I look at him strangely for a moment before shrugging my shoulder. Maybe, he's right. Maybe, he has nothing special to tell just like he said. "Ken, what about the wedding? Are we still getting married on the day Dom mentioned?""Why not? It's our wedding remember? Plus, we have started to understand each other more so, the reason why we should continue with this. I'm sure with time, we will adapt to it"
