Chapter 36: Ice Woman
The ride to the Beckett’s mansion if the happiest of my life, I smile all the way there and when I’m not smiling it’s because I’m kissing Leopold. It feels so good to finally be able to express my feelings for him and stop acting indifferent.
I can’t help but gasp the moment we arrive at the Beckett’s mansion, the place looks like a magical winter land. The already impressive fountains have white Christmas lights and poinsettia

Between the Mobster and the CEO Chapter 37: The only person in this town
Nate drives us back to Leopold’s apartment, we haven’t said a word to each other since we left the party. I don’t have anything to say, there is simply too much in my mind right now, Mrs. Becketts’ words really hurt and a day that was so full of happiness and excitement suddenly seems blue. The second we walk into the apartment and are alone, Leopold surrounds me with his arms.“I am so sorry about what she said, you don’t have to see her ever again,
Between the Mobster and the CEO Chapter 38: A strange sensation
(Leopold’s P. O. V.)I wake up slowly and feeling wonderful. I smile as the memories from last night come to my mind. I stretch my arms towards Emma, I can’t wait to hold her close again, but then I startle when I notice that she is not by my side on the bed.
Between the Mobster and the CEO Chapter 39: Mine
(Emma’s P.O.V.)My head is killing me and my stomach is upset. I slowly open my eyes and look around me. I don’t recognize this dark room. The room is empty except for the mattress I’m lying on over the floor. I try to move, but my hands are tied together on my back with a rope. I try to break free, but the knot is too tight. After several tries, I am able to kneel over the bed. I look around me once more, trying to find something sharp to cut the rope, but there is nothing in this room aside from the mattress. My wh

Between the Mobster and the CEO Chapter 41: Useless
The ambulance arrives a few minutes after. Leopold is still conscious, but weak. The paramedics attend to him without wasting any time. They prepare Leopold to take him in the ambulance, I am holding his hand and I don’t want to let go.“Can I come with him?” I ask one of the paramedics.
Between the Mobster and the CEO Chapter 42: So perfect
As I wait for the Beckett family to get to the hospital, the nurse tells me that Leopold is already in his room and that he is conscious. I walk as fast as I can without running towards his room. Leopold is lying on the hospital bed looking out the window with a scowl on his face. He looks more pail and has bags under his eyes, but he still looks astonishingly handsome. I freeze at the door as I contemplate him, I can’t believe I almost lost him.“Hi,” I say in a soft
Between the Mobster and the CEO Chapter 43: Confessing the truth
“I was kidnaped by Alex Ricci...” I admit as I lift my eyes to meet theirs. “He is the gangster that shot Leopold, he did it because Leopold came to rescue me while I was kidnaped.”“What?!” Mary Alice exclaims.“But the chief of police said Leopold was shot by a ma
Between the Mobster and the CEO Chapter 44: Goodbye Leopold
As I go in the apartment, I intend to go straight to my room to pick up my things before I leave for good, but Clara is here and she is worried sick because she heard Leopold was wounded by a firearm. The elderly woman seems too fragile for me to just leave her with no answers, she has worked for Leopold for years and she genuinely cares for her boss’s well-being. I sit on the bed with her and I tell her what happened, that the surgery was successful and that Leopold will recover fully. She is very relieved to hear the news and goes to bed with a big smile. The moment Clara goes back to her room, I take out my suitcase and I start to pack all of my belongings. I have no idea where I will go, I just know that
