The wedding

Orion Steele, a Mafia boss and a serial killer who had only fallen in love with one girl who was murdered two weeks after he confessed his love for her. He was known as the Mafia boss who ruled over Italy, he was ruthless, cold and didn't tolerate bullshit.

"I don't know what your connection with that girl is Leo but I advise you stay clear of her, to avoid creating some trouble for yourself" It wasn't just a saying but a threat, he didn't just associate himself with anybody but even those who he was close with always knew when to keep shut but not Leo.

Leo was the one who always tested the waters, they were the opposites of each other and a ticking time bomb.

Magnolia was woken up by the opening of her door. She saw Orion standing in front of her, his masked still on as he stared at her.

"Do you always sleep this long?" Orion asked her as he stepped into the room. He pulled open the blinds, making magnolia squint as she rubbed her eyes. Everything seemed blurry, she stood up but wobbled a bit but Orion was quick to catch her as he placed her back on her feet.

"Are you okay?" He asked as she nodded, he moved away from her almost immediately. He needed to put a boundary between them, because everytime he tried to keep himself away from her, he just finds himself moving closer, she feels like a magnet.

"G-good morning" she greeted him as she pushed her hair out of her face. As she fell asleep last night on an empty stomach or rather passed out due to exhaustion, she had come to accept that she couldn't do anything about this but make use of whatever would be offered her.

Orion thought she looked at but different but still sad. He moved closer to her, making her take a step back in fear. He was glad that he could instill fear in her heart.

"I see you have come to accept that you can never escape me, that is good" Orion said with a cold smile. He looked around the room before his gaze fell on her once more.

"A maid would be here with some food, so shower and eat. She would also be with your wedding dress, put it on and meet me downstairs" He said as he walked out of room. Magnolia stood there in a daze but she had heard everything he had said to her.

It was her wedding day, yippee. She said in her mind, she wanted to feel happy but it was impossible, her phone soon started to vibrate.

Her eyes widened as she went over to it, it was her father calling but she switched it off as she hid to under her pillow. She had a plan but she wished she wouldn't get caught.

Orion walked out of the girl's room as he frowned at his heart that had started beating loudly against his ribcage. He went to his room as he made a call to his assistant asking her to cancel all meeting's for the day. He soon decided to take a shower and then dress for his so called wedding.

Magnolia heard her door click open and a maid stepped into the room. Compared to the Lady that she had met when she had arrived at the Villa. This one seemed nicer, the lady smiled at her as she showed her wedding dress.

"I have being assigned by the boss to cater for your needs and make sure you show up for today's wedding" The maid said as she tried to keep her breath steady. After helping her shower and shave all the necessary places, she was dolled up to the stylist's taste, she just stood still allowing them do their jobs.

The wedding dress looked beautiful on her as she looked at the final outcome of everything. The dress was made of expensive lace and sequin that hugged her petite figure but made her look more mature. The craftsmanship was top notch and it made her feel like this day couldn't get worse.

As magnolia got to the garden, it had a small wedding stage at the corner, a priest stood in front of Orion who still had his mask on. Magnolia closed her eyes, controlling her temper as she wlaked towards them. She thought her wedding would be filled with people and her family right beside her. As she got to stage. She turned to face Orion with a blank look, her ever smiling was going to be rare.

"You may begin" Orion said to the priest who looked scared as she fumbled with the Bible that was in his hands, he cleared his throat as he started.

"Do you, magnolia, take Orion Steele as your lawfully wedded husband, to live and cherish, through all the days of your life?" The priest asked magnolia who frowned at his words, it wasn't the rest of her life because she would definitely escape this living hell.

"I do".

"I, Orion take you magnolia as my lawfully wedded wife, to love and to cherish, through sickness and health. Wealth and poverty, to protect you, till death do us part" Orion's husky voice filled her ears as she turned to look at him but she knew this was all a show. They soon exchanged rings as the priest in front of them couldn't believe that magnolia had fallen in love with such a demon.

"With that settled, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride" The priest said as Magnolia's eyes widened as she looked at Orion who stared at her blankly. She half hoped he would kiss her to at least make today better and actually feel like a wedding.

Till death do them part. She shook her head as her heart clenched in pain.

"I'm sorry to say this, but I don't do kisses"
