I can't believe it. This is a contract marriage? This means that he will let me go after 365 days.

"Does that mean that we will get a divorce after 365 days?" I ask and he nods, narrowing his eyes.

"If you obey the rules of the contract," he mutters, and a smile creeps into my face.

He twitches up his lips and tilts his head to the side.

"You haven't asked what the rules are," he mutters and I shrug lightly.

"Well… I'm always good at obeying rules," I grin.

It's not going to be hard after all.

All I have to do is call Jesse and tell him of his brother's plan. Though 365 days is a long way, with the kind of love we have for each other, he will wait for me. I'm pretty sure about that.

He chuckles darkly and nods before picking up the file on the ground.

He flips through the pages and shoves it in my face.

"Read the terms," he mutters.

I take the document and begin to read out the rules listed in the paper.

"You must behave like my wife in public…" I look up at him and he smirk

  • 365 Days As The Mafia's Bride    Chapter 18 Meeting the past

    KAITLYN I apply more lip gloss to my lips and stare longer at my face in the mirror before sighing loudly in satisfaction. I wonder why I care so much about my looks when I'm going to meet someone I had a problem with in the past. Perhaps, to show him that I am happy and have forgotten about the past. Yes, that's it! Pretend to be happy with the makeup on your fading face. I narrow my eyes and turn around for the door, twisting the knob with a smile on my face. I don't have to worry about Nikolai appearing before my door. He traveled for a business trip last night and will be back next week, that is what the butler told me. I push the door open, step back, and look around to be sure that the butler is telling the truth. I step out of the room when I am sure that he is not lurking around my door, then shuffle across the corridor and descend the stairs, forcing a cheerful smile into my face."Good morning, Mrs. Rider," the head maid says, smiling at me. I narrow my eyes at the s

  • 365 Days As The Mafia's Bride    Chapter 17 Filsul

    KAITLYN "Godson," I blurt out the word that is displayed when I search the meaning of 'Filsul'. I sigh and drop my head on the board, staring keenly at the screen of my laptop. Nikolai has all my belongings moved from my house to his house, where I'm currently residing. I packed up my things on my wedding eve so there was nothing much to do aside to pick up the bags in my apartment. I have all my electronic gadgets back, including my diaries and other secret stuff in my apartment. I hope he didn't rummage through my bags.I grab my phone and dial Ana's number, waiting for her answer. I don't know why I'm suddenly calling her but I feel like she needs to know about this and help me brainstorm as well. I groan loudly when the phone rings and no one answers the call. I stare at my phone and sigh loudly before throwing it to a corner of the bed. Ana must be busy buried in one of her numerous shopping and tours.I need to find out the relationship between Nikolai and Philippe's f

  • 365 Days As The Mafia's Bride    Chapter 16 Philippe's dad?

    KAITLYN I swerve my head around from Philippe to Nikolai, batting my lashes in confusion. Nikolai straightens up and sighs, narrowing his eyes as well. "I don't know what you are talking about," he mutters after a stretch of silence. Philippe scoffs and shakes his head. I can tell from his eyes that he doesn't believe him. To be honest, I don't believe him too. "That's a lie; if you didn't know who he is, you wouldn't have stopped and turned around!" Philippe snaps, pointing his finger at Nikolai as he fumes in anger. Nikolai scoffs in disdain, still wearing that straight, blank face that will never let you figure out what his true feelings are."Harris!" Nikolai calls and his butler rushes into the room, bowing slightly. "Take him out of this place," Nikolai mutters, clicking his fingers at Philippe. My heart sinks at the order and I gasp in dismay. I rush forward and grab Philippe's hand, glaring at the butler who is already reaching for him. "Stop! He came to see me!" I sn

  • 365 Days As The Mafia's Bride    Chapter 15 Philippe and Nikolai

    KAITLYN I rush down the stairs, heaving loudly. "Kait!" Ana's voice shoots through the large living room, causing a smile to break out on my face. "You are here!" I sigh in relief and take the remaining flights down, shuffling across the room to meet her at the door. "Ma'am, we tried to stop her—" "No need," I mutter, waving my hand in the air to dismiss her. "This place is freaking huge!" She gasps, squirming excitedly. I narrow my eyes and hiss loudly, throwing my head back. What is the point of living in a golden palace when there is no freedom?"Who let you in?" I ask. She flips her hair and bats her lashes seductively. "Who would dare leave a beauty standing outside," she purse her lips as she asks. I huff and lead her to a couch, forcing her down to a seat as she keeps grinning and fidgeting in excitement. "Did you meet Philippe?" I ask and slap my hand on my forehead when I remember that Ana isn't familiar with Philippe. "Oh, that guy?" Ana mutters and I raise my

  • 365 Days As The Mafia's Bride    Chapter 14 Skin to skin

    KAITLYN His face moves closer, causing my heart to skip multiple beats. "Wha… what are you doing?" I ask, trying to stop my breath from failing. He ignores my question and grabs my chin, forcing me to look into his eyes. He tilts my head to the side and rubs his cheek against my neck, causing goosebumps to appear on my skin. I shiver and try to slip out of his grip but he holds me tight, pinning my body to the wall, his body pressed against mine. He tilts my head to the other side and runs his finger against my neck down to my collarbone. "You are not hurt, are you?" He asks, his hand still gripping my chin. I slowly nod my head, my heart tightening in fear. My throat knots when I look down at his body and realize that he is shirtless. My belly knots and my heart gives several leaps as my eyes dart to his abs and packs. Drops of water are still sprayed across his body and his hair is wet, signifying that he is just coming from the bathroom. "I am not hurt," I stammer, hopi

  • 365 Days As The Mafia's Bride    Chapter 13 Missing

    KAITLYN My heart is about to leap out of my body as I stare at the stranger standing beside me. My body has frozen and I can hardly bat a lash, talk more of screaming out. He reaches out and touches my shoulder, causing me to shiver. Why does his touch feel so familiar? "Who… who are you?" I finally stutter out. His hand moves to the hat on his head and he pulls it off, revealing his face. I gasp, and relief slowly swerves across my body as I stare at his never-aging face. "Philippe!" I scream excitedly, grinning widely. He smiles but I'm sure that the smile didn't reach his eyes. I peer closely at him, worry slowly seeping in. "What's going on? Aren't you supposed to be in France?" I ask and he shrugs. "I recognized you at the restaurant and decided to meet up with you privately. I didn't scare you, did I?" He asks, and I giggle slightly, pushing the nervousness aside. "I was terrified at first, but I'm relieved now," I reply, and he grins."I can't wait to catch up on al
