Chapter Sixty-Three
A soft thud sounds as a servant drops some books on the table just a few inches away from the computer which I was working on.
Without looking up, I pull my laptop to the side away from her and continued my work. Scrolling through New York's lists of restaurants, diner and hotels. Anywhere a couple can go to have a good time. Niko seemed to find the idea of going of a date weird which leads me to believe he’s maybe never been on one. Yeah, I know I’m telling myself things but I want to go with that for now. Either way, it’s the first date for Niko and I as a couple, it still means a lot. It's not long before I come up with a list of places that I think will do perfectly.

It's being a week since our supposed date. Niko has only slept in our bed two times since then. How do I know this? I've being keeping count. Even went as far as to examine his bedside to see it if looked like someone slept on it, it didn’t, no lingering warmth, or crease on the sheets. After he left me that evening, he didn't come home that night. I was calm when I woke up that morning. Sleeping had made me see things with clearer eyes. Back then in Niko's study the men looked like they were planning to go on a mission or something. It could have had to do with life and death so he probably needed to go. I understood that. It's not like he blew me off to go have a drink with the guys. So like every other morning that day, I showered after my morning swim and had breakfast. Maria informed me on the recent activities in the family though
MAFIA RULES Chapter Sixty-Five
I slept in today. I don't exactly wake up at any exact time but today it's a quarter past eleven a.m when I drag my body from my bed. After taking quick shower I blow dry my hair and allow it to fall down my back in its natural form which is a wild wave on a good day. Other times it's mostly a wild mess. For some unknown reason today seem to be a good hair day so... I'm thankful. I walk to the closet after putting on light makeup. Eyeliner, some mascara and lip gloss then pinched my cheeks to give my face a healthy flush. Picking out a pair of jeans and a red cashmere sweater, I dress up quickly, finally zipping up my flat boots and leave my room. "Shit I forgot my phone!" I paused as I got closer to the stairs. But I'm so freaking hungry. "hu! I'll just get it later, it's not like anyone ever calls me" I shake my head and continued down the stairs.

I step out to see a pretty silver sports car sitting in the driveway with Tommy now wearing a black leather jacket over his T-shirt and a pair of sunglasses perched on his nose standing beside it and looking at the watch on his wrist. "Saved by five seconds, I was really hoping you'd miss me" he doesn’t even hide his disappointment. "Sorry" I said smiling like crazy. "Who is guarding you today?" "Either Miguel or Danilo but I haven't seen either of them today" I tell him when I come to stand in front of him. "You're not allowed to leave the house without them" how did he know that? "But I have you. And you're a made man aren't you? You can guard me today" "Why do I feel like this is a bad idea?" "I already informed Niko. It's cool as long as we don't do anything dangerous" more like I left him a note but I don't think I should be telling Tommy that. Tommy e

It was Sunday morning and Eva had just invited me to join her for mass, I declined. I didn't feel like praying or socializing right now which is what I know will occur after the church service. Picking up my phone I face timed my mother. She answered on the third ring. "Lola?" "Hello mother" I greet. When her image becomes clear on my phone screen. "I imagined you'll be in church now." she paused. "you look like you just got out of bed" I looked down at my nightie and robe then at my mother's pale pink dress, pearls lining her neck delicately. Her hair swept into an elegant French twist. I know her feet will be in nothing less than four inch heels as we speak. Mama never misses a day of church. She even makes time for weekly services sometimes. Unlike me. I often found reasons to get out of going. Today wa

MAFIA RULES Chapter Sixty-Nine
I look like a million bucks, and I mean that quite literally, diamond chandelier ear rings hanging from my lobes, a pretty diamond bracelet on my wrist sparkling whenever it catches any light, the rose diamond necklace Niko gifted me and my ring? Yep, definitely millions. Maria and I spent all day getting me ready for tonight. I almost felt like I was preparing for my wedding day again, except this time I was a happy participant. First, I had a long soak to relax my nerves. I've being feeling very hyperactive. I need today to go well, to be nothing less than perfect.
MAFIA RULES Chapter Seventy
"Where are we going?" I ask laughing a little following behind him. "Somewhere a little quiet" is his reply. Behind the door is a cozy little sitting area. White fluffy couches and pretty pink and blue pillows. There are a few lite candles scattered around the room and a single red rose laying on the table. I look at his face then back at the scene in front of me, holding back a gasp smiling widely, "This is very pretty" Did Niko plan this? Its relaxing, private with a hint of romance. It’s so simple and perfect. I bring out my phone and quickly turn on the camera. And click several times, taking pictures of the setting and the single rose on the table. Then switch to the video recorder, making a short video. While blinking back tears. Okay so I wanted to be wooed, consider me wooed. I join Niko on the couch where he was already sitting and waiting for me while I had my moment. His arm comes around me and I lean into him.

"I like this place! why don't we live here? it’s in the city and it’s so nice!" I spin around taking in my surrounding. "It’s more secured for you at the mansion"Niko says behind me. "How posh" I murmured. Trailing my fingers on a black leather couch closest to me. "How many rooms are there?" I walk faster, looking around and trying to take it all in at once.
