CARLOS

No matter how hard I wanted to run away from her, she kept running back to me without caution.

“Spend a day together?” As though I didn't hear what she said even though I did, I had to ask just so I could be sure. “I should be busy this weekend, Isabella. I'm not sure.”

“It's just the weekend, Carlos. Why are you so uptight?” Her question made me jump on my feet and I paced the space of Seraphina's shop where we were attending to new customers. “I have a life, too, Carlos. Do you think I won't let go of some things for the day just to be with you?”

Right.

Did she think she was as busy as me?

The last time I checked, I was the Mafia Don of a gang in the whole of the city.

Did she think it was as easy as staying back at home and being busy with cooking? A sigh ran out of my mouth and I thought about it, nodding. “We should see this weekend, then. I'm sure I can spare a few hours. Maybe three—if that's okay for you. What do you say?”

“Perfect, Carlos. Thank you so much.”

  • Mafia's Wrong girl    Chapter 83

    CARLOSI looked at the entrance of the church. My wife was on her way, dressed in the wedding gown we've always wanted to see her in. A flower in her hand, and of course, Jenny behind. It was strange but the two had developed a bond I could not explain, a bond I approved of long ago. Their friendship was far better than the one Isabella thought she could offer to my woman. “She's so beautiful.” Someone whispered. He was behind me. He was none other than Vito who said these words. “Lucky man that you are.” The people who came for the event were on their feet, singing as the woman I love caught up with me, the smile on her countenance unfading. “You look responsible.” I chuckled. “You leave me with no choice, Seraphina. I must look like a responsible man whenever you're involved. Don't you think so?” A smile was on my face and I took her hand. “How are you feeling?” I looked at my legs. They were strong. I was a strong man and gunshots could not have anything on me. Not once or

    CARLOS“You'll get your ass down here if you know what's good for you, flyboy.” A voice I recognized sounded in my eyes, from the phone. The call ended and I jumped on my feet. It all made sense now. It made sense now why Sera shouted and I didn't hear from her any longer. It was an hour ago and it felt like forever. I had tried so hard to reach out to the people living in the same house as her but I couldn't and I don't know why, even though I knew they were asleep. According to the words of Seraphina. What should I do? I was alone in the whole house. With the men who were watching over me. My legs led me down the stairs again and I looked around with a sigh, many sighs running out of my mouth. What do I do? I reached the living room entrance. It was almost late in the evening but this was a matter of life and death and I could not miss it for anything. I reached for my phone and dialed Vito. “Yes, boss?”“Come over to the house and be as fast as you can. I was talking to Ser

    SERAPHINA It was a blast!Starting off from the wedding gown, down to the suit Carlos showed me at the end of the day. We were on our way home but stopped by a restaurant to get some food. There was no time to cook, maybe there were, as a matter of fact, there were more than enough meals in that fridge at home. And I didn't forget that Jenny cooked something this morning, long before now. “Is this necessary?” That was Jenny asking. She looked at me from where she was seated so that she could ask. “Maybe we should cook something when we're home. You know fully well that there's food in the fridge or have you forgotten so quickly?” How could I forget? Of all things, not what went on in my house. “I want everyone to eat something from a restaurant, is there something wrong with that?” As I opened the door and hopped down, Jonathan did the same. “You two can remain in the car. Myself and Jonathan can handle the purchase.” “Alright.” On their behalf, Nicholas announced. Myself and

    SERAPHINA After several plans and arrangements, the wedding was in two weeks. But before then, myself and Carlos needed to go shop for the things we knew we needed on that big day. With Jenny on my side, and Vito on his, we were ready to go shop for my wedding gown as well as the suit we'd both agreed on. I woke up to the beeping sound of my phone. Sitting up, there was a call from Carlos who promised to call at this time in the morning. Without any hesitation, I picked up the call. “Good morning, boyfriend. How are you today?” “Boyfriend?” He laughed. “You're forgetting I put a ring on your finger. It's something no one would do, I mean, no Boyfriend. I'm fine, baby.” He laughed. It was genuine and I felt happy for him. A man like Carlos who was worse than ever, finding peace, all of a sudden. “How are you?” His next questions cut short my thoughts. I was on my feet, leading my way through to the closet so that I could grab my towel. “I'm fine. I believe I am. Are we getting re

    CARLOSI didn't know what to expect. The look on her face told me she might reject me. Seraphina wasn't smiling. How could she smile? The woman was shocked and needed time. Time to process this. “Are you joking with me?” She cried. I stayed on my knees, unmoving. I cast her a stare and shook my head. “This is never going to be a joke and you know it.” I winked and now she smiled. Seraphina smiled! She looked at the whole room before facing me. “I love you, Carlos Gotti.” Now, that was it. I didn't expect her to say such to me. I no longer felt tense but relieved. “I love you, too, Seraphina. What do you think? Take my ring and become my wife, or take your time to think about this move I have made. I know I haven't been a perfect man for you. I know. Hiding my identity at some point, I recall it, but—” “But nothing, Carlos. I'll be your wife.” Nonna, Jenny, and the others with us in the room cheered. They laughed and clapped while I got on my feet so that the ring could be fi

    SERAPHINA It was the weekend. The day went well and I was ready for what would come in the evening. Tonight. Myself and the men got back from work an hour ago. We were almost ready to leave, not really, but after our bath and a meal, of course. I had barely dropped my phone and bag on the bed when it beeped. There was a call from Carlos. Without any hesitation, I picked it up. “Yes? Good evening, Carlos. How are you doing?” “Good evening, baby.” The sound of that made me feel good. I didn't know why but I felt good. “Good evening,” I said again. I didn't know why and when but I was seated on the couch not so far from my bed in a short while. “How are you?” “Never been better,” Carlos said. I nodded, patient but impatient. There was a lot to do before the call would end. More than a lot. A sigh ran out of my mouth when I looked at the clock hanging on the wall. “I'm doing well, Sera. I wanted to know if I should expect you at the house soon. I know we talked about it this m
