" Why didn't you leave her to die mom,. Why the hell did you have to save her, she should have died for all I care . You acted so stupid mom " . a young girl about the same age or maybe older than Alyssa spoke up with arms akimbo .
" Don't you dare talk to me that way Olivia I'm still your mother young lady, besides we still need her, we still have used for her. Remember she still hasn't signed the papers yet we should think about how to make her sign it, not standing here quarreling over something that isn't important" Mrs Judy replied her daughter also standing akimbo
She wore a long black jean with a green top, Olivia shook her head in disbelief, " don't you think we get to own the company if she dies? Huh after all ,we are the only family she has,I don't even know why uncle had to will everything to her alone without willing anything to you, I mean he acted so stupid, he was such a fool" Olivia continued gazing at her mum who looked at her with mixed feelings. like seriously, somehow her daughter grew up to become worse then she is.
"Let us just get her to sign this document nicely without losing any more chances now that she's here alright" she moves closer to Olivia and wrapped her arms around her " don't worry darling, we'll have it all soon enough".
Alyssa gasped loud enough for both her aunt and cousin to hear, she had tears falling down freely and are hands kept on shaking ,
" What the hell did she just hear, she shook her ears hoping everything she'd heard now were just lies or jokes ,but damn ,they weren't. Wait , did they just fool her ,damn they finally succeeded in fooling her , and why ? Maybe because she had actually decided to give her aunt a second chance in her life, and try to open her heart slowly to her ,even if it's just for a little while
Auntie Judy couldn't help but look at Alyssa feeling a little scared as she also kept on shaking, " Al... Al.. Alys " she tried calling her name but couldn't why on the other hand , Olivia stood straight and adamant without showing any sign of remorse even if it's just pretence.
" So what? So what if you heard it all , so fucking what huh? Do you think you're the only one who likes wealth?, I mean babe ,we are humans, why can't we be just a little selfish like all the people out there? I wanna be fucking rich too yunno" Olivia spat angrily.
Alyssa scoffed,
" you could have just asked me instead if you needed money Olivia,I would have given you more money than you could ever wish for ,if only you asked and you both had just apologize for what you did to me in the past"
" Oh shut the hell up Alyssa, we aren't some poor beggars you take pity on , we absolutely don't need your pity either, yes you heard it all, you heard every bit of it, what the f****** hell do you want to do about it?
Aunt Judy shook her head looking at her daughter in disbelief," Olivia!! .she called but hell no ,she wasn't gonna listen or turn back now , especially now that their plans had been leaked .
Alyssa in between her tears scoffed and laughed
" What's so funny you weirdo?"
" You wanna know ? Huh ? Alyssa spat like a boss lady . She walked over to the center table, grabbing the file which laid there,and when she opened it ,she brought out the document, grabbed a pen on the table and signed of in immediately without reading it ,, it was so obvious it wasn't of any good anyways.
She's gonna die in some months time anyways,so what's the use of keeping it anyway,and besides,she isn't in control of her damn mind .
"You want my company? You are fucking** obsessed with my money? Then here, you can have it all, I don't care anymore, eat it all till you f****** die " she forcefully threw the document on their shocked faces and walked out immediately heading towards the room to get all her stuff and leave the freaking house.
A while ago, after the incident in the bathtub, she had woken up just to see herself still alive and on the bed covered up properly, with her head hurting like hell. She ran into the bathroom to throw up ,and ended up smiling, thinking,just maybe her aunt and cousin had saved her life .
DAYS LATER ••••••
As she got into an underground garage towards where her car was parked , Alyssa mind began to wander.
She was already twenty three and still never had a boyfriend, she grew up thinking about her work and her company, and never had time to be in a relationship. She had always rejected boys who showed her love , besides she never trusted men ,and the few that had shown interest in her ,she believed they were only after her money.
" Mr Alex,I love you ! "A woman's voice echoed in the underground garage startling Alyssa again.
" What did you just say ? "She heard a familiar voice ,the same intimidating,and meniace voice she heard some days ago ,and she began to wonder if he was the same person.
" I said I love you Alex" Alyssa heard the woman's voice again " I fell for you the moment I signed the contract,the moment I saw you "the woman's voice sounded again
Alyssa could tell from her voice ,that she wasn't lying at all , she really loves him . She decided to wait and eavesdrop till the end .
" We're done "he said with a cold and harsh voice , there was simply no trace of emotions in his eyes
" What ,I'm sorry "
" Don't let me repeat myself again "
" But the contract says I'll be your woman for six months,I still have three months left ."
" Did you properly read the contract MJ? He brought out his phone and began scrolling through his gallery till he got what he was looking for and then ,he began reading. Here's one of the first and most important rule , the contracted lady can demand anything except for love or affection, once she demands for this , the contract immediately becomes null and void "
Alyssa's eyes widened with what she just heard , he was just excactly the man she wanted . She couldn't help but peek at them and surprisingly it was the same man .
" Take her away "Alex immediately said and immediately a tall , hefty man in Black came dragging her out
Alyssa was about moving,when she heard his voice
" Come out , I know you're hiding there "he said and she flinched in fear .
She wasn't gonna let this cold, bold ,daring yet breathtaking and surprisingly handsome man intimidate her ,and she only continued drooling immediately her eyes fell on him
He was just the perfect definition of beauty , his well built body got her almost going insane .
" What are you doing here, were you eavesdropping? His cold voice uttered and she could feel it echo deep in her heart , her eyes sparkled as she continued drooling.
A drool which ended immediately she heard the sound of his gun ,and immediately,she returned back to her senses .
Suddenly,with an unknown boldness she spoke up " I can become your contracted woman , and believe me ,I won't ever demand for your love or affection"... But he only gave her a shocked look and scoffed looking at her.
" What did you say?"Alex spoke up looking at her, such a little lady coming to him and willing to do something so dangerous." Little lamb, do you know who I am?"He asked taking a few steps towards her. This made Alyssa draw back a little in fear not because he was actually getting closer to her, but also because he wouldn't drop his gun." What are you doing?" His voice sounded really cold when he noticed she was moving backwards little by little, he stopped and stared at her for a while before speaking. " How can a scared little flower like you wish to sign a contract with me. What do I stand to gain by letting you " He asked making a scared Alyssa take a step closer to him." I clearly heard you, I do not need your love or affection,and isn't that what you want?.". She asked sounding so bold all of a sudden. Alex scoffed and tried taking another step closer to her, she moved back. He looked at the gun he was holding and suddenly smiled." I am dangerous, if you must know". Alex sai
Upon hearing that she was still willing to go ahead and become his contracted wife Alex couldn't help but be shocked by her courage. "Fine, but do not say I did not warn you about what you are getting yourself into," Alex said as he gave Alyssa his business card. Alyssa collected the card from him as she tried looking him in the eyes so he wouldn't sense the fear that was creepy through her. "I will let you think about these decisions you want to make, so yeah once you are done think about it and you are ready to continue with it you can just place a call to me," Mr. Alex said to Alyssa before he took his leave not wanting her to say anything. Immediately Alyssa got home she dropped her handbag on the bed and immediately went to the bathroom. She wanted to cool her head, after that conversation she had with Alex she had been feeling a headache. "I might have gone overboard," Alyssa said to herself as she turned on the shower. After a lot of thinking she finally came to a c
Thought Clouded Alyssa's mind as she wondered what in the world had happened when she called Mr mafia last night. After a lot of thought, she still couldn't remember what had happened and she decided not to disturb herself by thinking of what had happened last night over the call instead she started to think of what could be next for her now that she had accepted to be the contracted wife to a Mafia lord. "Even if I do not have a long time to live again due to my sickness, I still don't want to die quickly in the hands of my handsome Mr mafia," Alyssa said to herself as she went down the stairs to prepare breakfast for herself. **** Alex dropped his phone immediately after the call and walked over to the mirror to check out himself because he was getting ready for a business meeting when Alyssa called. As Alex walked gracefully to the mirror he couldn't help but wonder what had gotten into Alyssa that had made her accept to be his contracted wife, even though he had made her u
Alyssa glanced at her phone and noticed that she hadn't received any text message from Alex yet. While she was eager to finalize the contract and become the wife of a mafia don, she didn't appreciate wasting her time. After losing her parents and taking over her father's company, Alyssa developed a strong sense of punctuality. She had always been someone who valued being early and respecting time. Alyssa hesitated as she reached for her phone, contemplating whether or not to call Alex once again. Alyssa was concerned about giving off the impression of desperation to Alex. She didn't want him to perceive her as someone who was solely focused on finding a husband quickly before her time in life was up. Speaking about her death Alyssa had made some rules that she was going to uphold once she signed the contract and also she had made one wish concerning the contract she wanted to sign and that was the only thing she hoped and wished that Mr Mafia would accept. Alyssa kept checking a
Alyssa woke up feeling a tad bit improved after the sudden headache she experienced earlier in the day. Alyssa was uncertain about what to do because she had already woken up, thinking the meeting with Mr. Mafia wouldn't happen again today. As Alyssa grabbed her phone to see the time, she noticed it was already 4:30 in the evening. While checking the time, she received a notification from an unfamiliar number. She felt a bit hesitant but eventually decided to check the message, only to discover it was from Alex. "What the fuck!" Alyssa yelled "Omg, I must have slept so sound that I didn't even hear my phone ring nor hear the message tone sound," Alyssa said as she got up from the bed to go get ready. When Alyssa looked at the timestamp of the message, she discovered it was from three hours ago. She thought to herself that she must have been asleep for about three hours. She quickly went to her wardrobe and opened it. There were a variety of nice clothes but she didn't want to dres
Alex stood up from the dining table as he led the way to the mini office that was in his house. Alyssa followed after him, and as they got to the office room Alex sat on his seat and offered Alyssa a seat. There was a moment of silence between them as Alex brought out the contract files. Both his copy of the file and The one he had made for Alyssa. He handed over to Alyssa her copy of the file as she went through it without any form of distraction. After she was done going through all that was in the contract she started reading it out to Alex like she didn't know what was written on the file already. Effort! I know everything written on that piece of paper and that is not why I gave it to you to read, Alex said coldly, sending shivers down Alyssa's spine. Alex kept on speaking "I gave you to go through the contract and tell me if you are fine with the terms and conditions of the contract and also if there is any reasonable thing you would like to add to the contract" Alyssa sign
Alyssa arrived home late after her daring dinner with Alex. She's feeling uncertain about whether her choice was the right one or not. What she truly desires is to spend her remaining days on earth alongside a charming yet wicked and utterly ruthless Mafia leader in his empire. Alyssa questioned herself, wondering why she would willingly choose to make her life more challenging by staying with Mr. Mafia. As she entered her house, these thoughts occupied her mind. Alyssa let out a deep breath of relief as she settled onto one of the couches in her sitting room. "Hmmm, I hope I can survive these contracts I just signed lord," Alyssa said silently. Knowing how hot and tempting Alex was and could be Alyssa didn't want to bridge the contract after making a mouth about not bridging the contract, Alex without any form of effort already looked good so what would happen when they started Living together after the marriage and she can't control herself, Alyssa thought. As the thought of the
Alyssa woke up feeling refreshed after an exhausting dinner night with Alex. She got up from bed after checking the time and it was already 9 am in the morning, as she checked the time she saw that she had missed a lot of calls from the office and she wasn't ready to speak to anyone at that moment. She just dropped her phone and went to the bathroom. She gracefully took off her clothes and walked into the bathtub to have a relaxing morning bath. She spent a few minutes in the bathtub as she tried not to think about all her worries and just enjoyed the moment she had to herself as she took her bath. After she was done bathing she came out of the bathroom and applied some ointment onto her sink and did her usual routine before she went down to prepare herself breakfast. She took her phone with her down but as she got down the stairs and saw her bag and heels from last night's dinner meeting she remembered that she had told Alex that he should send his wedding plans to her house and
