The Mafia's Lover Chapter 46
*Jonathan walked me to the back of the kitchen towards the staff room. He knocked twice before opening up the room door.Three big men were lying on the ground unconscious, one of them being CJ and in the corner were Mandy and her mother both shaken up in fear."Adira!" Mandy said immediately she recognized me.I ran over and hugged her as she cried into my shoulder, she was shaking so much that I feared she had caught a fever."Are you okay? Did they hurt you? How many fingers am I holding? I'm so glad you guys are fine. I'm sorry! It's all my fault." I said babbling at a point. It's been a long time since I was overwhelmed by emotions.After another 20 minutes of crying, I was calm enough to take over from the men, I looked toward Phillip and Jonathan."Thank you, both of you. I owe you one." I said sincerely."It is an honour to work for you ma'am, you need not be grateful for anything. It was our pleas

*A few hours later, I got back to my hotel room and opened the door gently, it was pretty late and I was sure but now the ladies would have been sleeping.I walked in to find both ladies and Jonathan on the couch asleep and Phillip on an armchair sipping on a cup of tea."I took due care of your guests while you were away, so I believe you've settled everything." Phillip said not looking away from the magazine in his hand."Thank you and yes, but I kinda left a mess behind, things didn't go as smooth as I would have wanted it to go but all's well that ends well. Right?" I said pulling up the blanket on Jonathan."I'll be sure to take care of that instantly." Phillip said taking out his phone."So if I may ask? Did you find what you were looking for?" Phillip asked after he finished on his phone."Truth is Phillip, is that I was very careless in the past few months before coming here. To be honest, these past 10 I'v

*I woke up feeling the light touch of the morning sun and also the smell of something really good coming through my bedroom door.I stood up with messy hair and was half-awake to find what smelt like heaven from my dreams. I waddled through the doors till I reached the kitchen."I see you're finally awake."I rubbed my eyes trying to concentrate on whoever was speaking in front of me."Good morning ma'am, I trust you had a good night's sleep." I recognized the voice as Phillip's.I blinked twice and saw both Stacy and Phillip in aprons probably making breakfast together."Go wash up child, you'll need all the energy you can muster. I'm sure the poor thing hasn't even had a bite since yesterday." Stacy said."I made sure she had something healthy and energizing before the big fight yesterday, but I do believe she hasn't had anything since then. She sure is a disciplined woman." Both Stacy and Phil

*It took Adira a while to reach the state cemetery and to her what was just mere minutes felt like hours with each passing second. She drove with this unsettling feeling within her stomach that made her just want to run away, but she knew all too well that, that would be disrespectful to my parents and a shameful act on her path.A few minutes later, Adira's car rolled to a stop at the entrance of the cemetery and as she had already known, the place was quiet. Too quite. She got down from her car and picked up the basket from the back seat as she proceeded to walk into the yard. From a mile away, Adira's anxiousness could be felt like all that could be heard was the clicking of her own heels against the stone platform and the sound of her heart beating in her ears.After another five minute walk, Adira was able to locate her family gravesite, thanks to Spencer she was able to keep her family together. Adira felt that as psychotic

*"Who was she?" I asked seeing that he must have really cared for whoever he came to see today.Ashton let out a small laugh but it seemed pained on the surface, a feeling I knew all too well."You see, I grew up without both my parents and was adopted immediately after, by a rich family who wanted me as their heir and since I was still young, I was the perfect candidate. And because of that I was always having special classes and with high-class folks, not really able to make friends with kids my age." Ashton explained.I listened closely to every word that came out of the blonde-haired man in front of me."So, one day, at the age of 12, after my mid-afternoon lesson, I walked to the back to have my afternoon snack when I notice this girl sleeping cosy under our apple tree and I became curious. I went closer to this sleeping girl and looking at her face that was covered in dirt and when I was staring directly above her her eyes fle

*Parked in the underground parking lot, Adira relaxed in her seat as relived everything up to this point.From the moment I came back to town things had been going upbeat, she thought.My secret meeting with Mandy, finding Jonathan, being very wary about Ashton, CJ's gym, it was as if all these events lined up just to get us together at the morgue.The truth was there was no telling if Ashton was telling the truth or not but the feelings attached to it were as pure as a refined diamond. It's funny that these compliments coming out of me are directed toward a man, but again it's been a while since I've been around good people.Getting down from her, Adira made it up to her suite to get ready for the evening, prepared for an unplanned event like this, Adira had already made available the perfect red dress that would leave any living being speechless. Tailored to her fit, Adira was sure she'd be the star of the day.She took a

*"If you're leading me off this building then I got news for you." I said to scare him but he laughed again."Alright, you can open your eyes now."My eyes flutter open and the view in front of me was magnificent. I looked out in front of me and there stood a table for two under a large tent-like figure with pink-peach coloured sheets moving lightly in the wind.Christmas lights were also hung up to make it look more magical, not to mention the view of the busy street, not loud enough to disturb our conversation. And the presence of the full moon just ahead of us... Was I playing Cinderella?Without saying a word, I moved closer to the preparations that were so beautiful there were no words for it."Do you like it?" Ashton asked nervously, moving closer behind me."You- you did all this? For me?" I asked."Well technically, I paid someone to do this, but it's definitely for you." Ashton as he picked my rig

*"Are you still in love with Juliet?"Caught in the silence, we both sat there staring at each other, in his eyes, I could tell that he was struggling with an answer. It became clear to me what the answer was and I wasn't about to force him to say anything.Slowly I pulled my hand out from under he's and looked away, the nerve I was trying hard to avoid, I had successfully tugged at it. Ashton looked away too, probably feeling guilty for not being able to answer such a simple question but before he could gather his thoughts, there was a knock on the door and in came the waitress, saving us both from ourselves.Both quiet, we let her take away our wine glasses as she replaces them with new ones and a fresh bottle of red wine. She placed our starters in front of us, bowed and said."I'll be back in 10 minutes with your main dish. Please be patient. Thank you." We both nodded at as she walked away.Not having the courage to co
