Chapter: THE NEW MADAMLazar’s POVShe smelled so nice up close, like cherry blossoms. If only she knew how unbearable it was for me to stay this close to her and not do something inappropriate.Speaking of inappropriate, did she just ask me about our wedding night?“I don't know, what do you want to do?" I asked, clearly my throat to sound more convincing.A smile spread across her face as she rose up from where she sat. She paced across the room, grabbed a board and scurried over to me.“Can you play?" She asked, her eyes brimming with anticipation.I looked at the board in her hand and it was a monopoly board.

Chapter: A NIGHT BEFORE THE WEDDING Lazar’s POV 9 PM at Crystal hotel“Please...I have half of the money. Within this week I will complete the rest...just don't kill me," he begged, trembling like a fowl wearing nothing but boxers.My patience slowly slipped away as I stared at the idiot before me. “You had three months to repay the loan you took, Williams. Three fucking months and an extra week of grace. I gave you enough time to pay up but you chose to mess around with women. A useless man doesn't deserve to live," I grumbled, corking my gun in the air.He screamed pathetically from the sound, bracing himself for the impact. “Wait... please don't shoot. I have someone who can repay the debt immediately," he blurted out in fear. A giggling sound echoed through the room, breaking the intense atmosphere. He quickly grabbed his phone and answered the call, making sure to put it on a loud speaker.“Honey, where are you? It's getting late already," A woman's voice spoke through the phone. Her voice, soft and gently laced
