Craigs? I asked in surprise.“ Yes son, Craig’s” I said.“ What deals do you have with the Craig’s , mom? I asked curiously.“ Our normal deals, the dark world deals” she said firmly and changed her sitting style by crossing her legs.I stare at my mom for a long time sits across her.“ Listen mom, we know Craig's line of business in the dark world isn't the same as our’s “ I said, raising my voice a bit.“ And what’s wrong with their line of business? My mom asks.“ Everything! Everything mom, The Craig’s deals in human organs which is not part of our own kind of thing” I said and stood up out of frustration.“ Well maybe I change to their own line of business because I want to be richer that Claire, I want my position back as the richest Mafia female billionaire “ she say.“ Is this about rivalry or is it about making more money? I asked in surprise.“ Both,” She replied.“ I am disappointed in you and I will not be part of all this because I will never support killing innocent peopl
She shakes her head to say no and I walk closer to her.I caress her cheek with my palm passionately looking into her face.“ If you want something, you should always tell me , you scare the shit out of me” I said.“ I am sorry” she says apologetically.“ I can never be mad at you my little cat” I said and leaned my forehead with her forehead.“ I am sorry,” she said again.I looked at her and I could see she looked very tired. I slowly lifted her off her feet , she wrapped her hand around my neck and she looked into my eyes and she said softly.“ Put me down “ she says and I tighten my hands around her .“ No, I know you are tired and I know you must have been wandering around inside this maze for so long” I said.IRENE.When he came for me in the maze , I was surprised, I could see worries written all over his face.The way he caresses my cheek and also lifts me off my feet makes me look into his face if he is always like this or it’s all a trick to get my kids from me too” I thought
I stare at him and he looks at me.“ Don’t worry, I will wait till you make up your mind” he said and kissed me on the nape.To be honest , I like his lips on my nape but that isn’t what I had risked my life coming out of prison for.I didn’t reply to whatever he had asked me, all my mind was we should get going so that I can escape and find my kids.He walks to his drawer and picks his gun, he cocks it and tucking it into the side of his pants.I quickly styled my hair while he was waiting for me.When I was through, I walked to him and he stretched out his hand for me.I stare into his palm.“ My palm won’t hurt if you put yours in mine, it will only tell you how safe you are when you are with me” I look into his eyes and he smiles at me.I place my palm into his palm and we both walk out of the bedroom, we climb down the stairs, the way he held my hand was so beautiful that I kept looking down to our hands.We walked out of the house and he walked me to his car. The car was a white
IRENE.When I saw the guns and how dressed the girls were , I was scared.The way he held me up and let me stand behind him gave me confidence but at the same time I was scared.He has his hands pressed against my hand telling me I am saved but to be honest I am scared but it was also an opportunity for me to escape.But the way they stood facing each other with Mikel defending me.I didn’t know he had been betrothed but when she mentioned it I became jealous and upset that he never told me he had someone but wait why am I jealous? After all he is my master , he bought me at a huge price but the truth is I am beginning to feel like he is my lover.It’s barely forty eight hours and I am already falling in love with someone I find it hard to trust.Maybe I trust him, maybe I am just scared of giving myself to him.The banter continued between them and the girl shot into the air and I screamed again, everyone in the restaurant screamed, then the girl was going to pull me out behind Mikel
He gave me a kiss on the cheek and stood up beside me.“ If you actually love me , you will let me go and look for my kids,” I said.“ Out there it is not safe for you little cat,” he said.“How do you know out there isn’t good for me ? I asked.“ Because you don’t know Claire and Sheryl already know you and someone is out there looking for you, someone that finds you good enough for her business and I don’t want any harm to come to you” he said.I paused thinking of who could be someone else who wants me for business or is he planning to sell me that he is just using style to hint me.He turned around and he saw my gaze lower , my mood changed with so many thoughts in my mind.I look up to him again, I open my mouth and shut it, I wanted to ask him but I shut my mouth and I see him turn around and come back to me.“ Hey, little cat , do you have something to ask me? You don’t have to be scared, I am here for you, ask me some silly questions and I will answer” he says and holds my hand
MikelWe continue our walk and my phone rang, I checked in the screen and it was my mom. I know why she has called , It’s because of Sheryl.I picked the call and excuse myself.“ Hello mom” I said.“ Don’t even Hello me son! how dare you go out with that girl? How dare you humiliate your fiancée that way for a girl you bought! My mom asked in an anger tone.“ Mom! Can you please not even let’s discuss all of this and please don’t even for a second think I will marry your choice because you had an oath with that family or want to join their stupid business? I said.“ Don’t even ridicule what I am trying to do because of a girl that was sold to you, listen you will marry Sheryl or you will put that girl in danger! I already told you that girl is only good for my business and not you, Sheryl is who you need right now and not some girl you just bought” my mom says.“ Mom please I am begging you don’t interfere in my love life and point of correction, Irene is a special girl and not just a
I climb down the stairs to my mom and when I was five stairs away from where she was standing, I could see she’s upset, she stood at the middle of my living room pacing around with her fist held tight.I paused and said “ Hi” she didn’t reply , I knew at that moment why she is upset.“ Tell me you didn’t come all the way from your house because of Irene? I asked and she gave me that “ You are crazy look” I walk closer to her and look straight into her eyes.“ I am not selling my woman and I am not marrying Sheryl “ I said.And the next thing was that I felt a slap on my face.“ You won’t disrespect me because of that girl ! a girl you bought! I am your mother and you should have that into your brain! Now you will listen to me.“ I won’t listen to you mom on this? I said firmly.“ You would son! She yelled.“ I won’t! I yelled back at her .“ Don’t try to think you can control what I do because we run the drug cartel and farm together! I am only respecting you as my mom and don’t for a
MIKEL.When she said that, I turn her around and made her look into my eyes.“ Hey! I am not interested in your strength, I am interested in you and I love you so much and that is what matters” I said looking into her eyes passionately.“ Your mom doesn’t like me, she like Sheryl “ She said.“ And I like you” I said caressing the side or her jaw with my tomb talking to her softly.“ Your mom feels you are disrespecting her because of me? She says.“ I am not disrespecting her, I am only telling her I love you and that is the truth” I said and intertwine my hands with hers.“ Maybe I should go while you focus on being with the stronger one” she says.“ No, you are not weak, you are the strongest woman that I have ever met, you have been through a lot from your tender age , you got pregnant and have a children and you were ready to take up their responsibilities even when you are not sure you can , you were sent to jail and you took a risk for five kids and even with me you still want to
